Strawberry Pop Pop Pop - Chap 100

Chap 100
Zhang Jie intentionally said, “It’s actually a pity for Mr. Liang and Miss Xu. If it weren’t for
Mr. Liang’s leg injury, by now, he and Miss Xu might even have kids in kindergarten.”
Hearing this, Su Li looked at her inexplicably.
“Oops, I said too much, I’m sorry, Mr. Su, it wasn’t my intention at all,” she apologized
repeatedly while placing the washed fruits on a platter. “Anyway, now that Mr. Liang is in a
relationship with you, you don’t have to worry. No matter how beautiful Miss Xu is, she’s
already getting married.”
Seeing Su Li didn’t respond, she cheerfully picked up the fruit platter.
Before she took a step out of the kitchen, Su Li suddenly asked, “Zhang Jie, what TV shows
do you usually watch? You must be watching something with this kind of corny method to
provoke me.”
“Ah?” Zhang Jie was caught off guard.
Su Li stood with his hands in his pockets, leaning against the wall, pondering for a moment.
“I’m just curious what TV show you are watching that you’d use such a cheesy tactic to
provoke me?”
“…,” Zhang Jie suddenly understood his meaning, pretending to be clueless as she smiled
and said, “Mr. Su, what are you talking about?”
Su Li was straightforward, “This trick doesn’t work on me.”
After all, he was the one dating Liang Xie. If he had any misunderstandings, he could just
ask Liang Xie directly. There was no need to get information from Zhang Jie.
It was a fact that Xu Lin didn’t like him, but Liang Xie and Xu Lin themselves didn’t have any
such intentions. Su Li’s silence earlier was only due to concern about whether Liang Xie’s
family issues would affect him. He had no time for jealousy.
Su Li walked straight over, took the fruit platter from Zhang Jie, and picked up a strawberry
to eat as he left the kitchen, leaving Zhang Jie looking embarrassed.

About half an hour later, Su Li knocked on Liang Xie’s door.
“Liang Xie?”
“The door isn’t locked,” Liang Xie’s voice came from inside, steady and clear.
After Su Li opened the door, he saw Liang Xie looking at an email on his laptop. “The
strawberries today are really sweet. Want some?”
Liang Xie nodded and gently massaged his temple.
Su Li walked over, handed him a strawberry, and asked indistinctly, “Are you busy with
work?”
“I’ve just finished.”
Since the year before last, Liang Xie had invested the money he made from stock trading
and co-founded a game company with friends. Although the income was not as extravagant
as his life as a young master in the Liang family, it was enough to buy a house and a car in C
City.

The card Liang Xie usually gave to Su Li contained the money he had earned himself. Apart
from this apartment and Zhang Jie, Liang Xie hadn’t spent a penny of the Liang family’s
money.
Su Li sat beside him, hugging the fruit platter and eating strawberries. He said
nonchalantly, “How about we go to the supermarket tomorrow evening after dinner? We’ve
run out of juice in the fridge.”
Liang Xie, who had been focusing on the screen, said, “Let Zhang Jie go shopping. If you
want to drink now, I’ll have someone deliver it.”
Su Li thought there was no need. “Well, we should go out for a walk anyway.”
Suddenly, Liang Xie closed the laptop. “I don’t want to go out.”
Su Li was puzzled and stammered, “You, are you upset about something?”
“I’m not.”
“It’s obvious that you are…” Su Li said. “Zhang Jie said that you’re upset because of Xu Lin.
Do you like her that much?”
“Don’t listen to Zhang Jie’s nonsense; she’s been talking too much,” Liang Xie responded
grumpily, “I’ve always been just friends with Xu Lin. Besides, Xu Lin already has a partner.”
“Why are you frowning and not coming with me to the supermarket then?” Su Li asked,
feeling annoyed.

He stuffed a strawberry into Liang Xie’s mouth. “If you don’t tell me, I’m going to get angry!”
Liang Xie didn’t get a word out before the strawberry blocked his mouth. In a hurry, he
swallowed the strawberry and decided not to confess. However, when he saw Su Li hang
his head, he honestly explained, “Sitting in a wheelchair and going out with you, don’t you
feel embarrassed?”
“Huh? Why would I feel embarrassed?”
“…Lately, you’ve been looking at my wheelchair and asking me why I bought an electric
one,” Liang Xie said, somewhat reluctantly. “Su Li, I know that dating someone with a
disability is not easy. If you feel inconvenienced, we can just meet at home.”
Su Li was getting emotional and kept talking, “I really want to go out with you, and I’ve
never felt that you are embarrassing. Really! Liang Xie, you can’t misunderstand me like
this! If I thought you were embarrassing, why would I invite you to go out? I…”
Su Li got upset for a moment, and his eyes welled up with tears.
The plate of strawberries in his hand tasted sour, just like the grape flavor he had.
This time, Liang Xie was left speechless. He looked at the deeply aggrieved Su Li and
instantly realized he had overthought things. He reached out and held Su Li’s hand, quickly
apologizing, “It’s my fault. Please don’t be upset.”
Su Li lowered his eyelids and sniffled.
“Su Li, don’t be angry.”
Su Li wouldn’t genuinely be angry with Liang Xie. He lowered his head and softly asked,
“So, are we still going to the supermarket?”
If Liang Xie said they were going, Su Li wouldn’t be upset anymore.
“Okay, we’ll go.” Liang Xie held his hand tightly and wanted to say something to comfort
him.
However, Su Li’s mood shifted in an instant.
The weather turned clear.

After a while, he informed Liang Xie, “I’m staying here tonight.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t crawl into your bed like last time.”
“Uh, okay.”
Su Li picked up a strawberry and said, “I’ve figured it out.”
Liang Xie didn’t understand, “What?”
Su Li had indeed figured it out; Liang Xie was the kind of person who needed directness
rather than hints or subtlety.
With a bright smile, Su Li said, “Your bed is so big; I can sleep right on your bed.”
Sleeping on the floor was indeed inconvenient for certain activities.
Liang Xie’s feeling was right; ever since Su Li returned from H country, he had changed. To
put it nicely, he had become more straightforward, but to put it more gently, he had
become bolder.
That evening, without asking for Liang Xie’s permission, Su Li simply lay down next to him
after finishing his bedtime grooming.
He left a small lamp on, and his voice sounded particularly sweet as he said, “Good night.”
In the dim light, the two breathed slowly.
Su Li turned and cautiously reached out to hold Liang Xie, pressing his cheek against Liang
Xie’s arm. It was making Liang Xie too restless to sleep. He wished he could send Su Li to
the guest room right away. However, ever since Su Li moved in after the first sleepover, the
guest room, arranged just for him, hadn’t been used once.
Previously, Su Li would sleep on the floor in his room.
Now, Su Li was sleeping on his bed.
As they got closer step by step, Liang Xie’s heart raced with each beat.
And there was another person who couldn’t sleep: Su Li. He rubbed his cheek against Liang
Xie’s arm, and when he saw Liang Xie didn’t react, he swallowed hard, and his pheromones
had a distinct sour note.
“Liang Xie, are you asleep?”
“No.”
Su Li’s hand slowly moved down, interlocking with Liang Xie’s. “Can… Can I kiss you?”
