After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 1535: Chapter 1539: Fated but Not Destined

Leng Zirui reminded Xu Xia with a sentence, then got up and headed towards the exit of the auditorium.

”Leng Zirui!” Xu Xia called him softly, but Leng Zirui had already taken long strides up the steps and out the door. ”What kind of uncle is this, running off when Mo Mo is about to perform!”

Xu Xia muttered a complaint under her breath and looked at her foot that he had placed on the chair. She tried to lift it, but then put it back down.

That guy said not to move, he must have his reasons.

Oh well, better listen to him, or else I’ll get an earful later!

This guy, like a shadow that won’t go away, why does something always happen when I meet him?

Could it be that the two of them are fated enemies, destined to meet but not to be together?!

Thinking of this, Xu Xia sighed and turned her face toward the stage.

Just in time to see Qin Wanwan go on stage to perform, the little one was dancing with her father Qin Lan, the red pleated skirt swaying with the dance steps, looking quite stylish like a little adult.

Xu Xia watched the two of them cooperate so well, becoming utterly entranced.

As soon as the song ended, she immediately raised her hand and applauded vigorously.

These little ones are just a few years old, but they perform so seriously and well that Xu Xia couldn’t stop laughing.

A light footstep beside her indicated that Leng Zirui had returned. When he left, his hands were empty, but now he was holding two heavy bags.

Back at Xu Xia’s side, he immediately opened one of the bags and took out the contents.

Seeing the popsicle in his hand, Xu Xia just raised an eyebrow, ”Why didn’t you buy popcorn?!”

Coming to watch a performance and eating ice cream, does he think this is a movie theater?!

”Can popcorn treat a foot?!” Leng Zirui shot her a glance and carefully lifted her foot onto his lap, then took out a handkerchief to wrap around the popsicle. Gently supporting her foot, he applied the popsicle to her sprained ankle.

Watching his actions, Xu Xia was stunned, ”You...”

”There aren’t any pharmacies nearby, I couldn’t buy an ice pack!” Leng Zirui explained, his face down, ”If we don’t ice it quickly, it will swell very soon.”

He usually carries a first aid kit and some medicine in his car, but he really didn’t have any ice packs. After searching around the area and not finding a pharmacy near the school, he had to go to a supermarket to buy some popsicles to use as ice packs.

Xu Xia turned her face to look at him. It was obvious he had been running; there was a visible sweat sheen on his forehead. In the dim light, his profile was dashing yet captivating. Carefully tending to her foot, Leng Zirui’s actions were both focused and meticulous.

Gazing at his profile, Xu Xia felt a complex emotion rise once more in her heart.

She hoped he would be good to her, yet feared his kindness.

Sensing her gaze, Leng Zirui turned his face toward her.

”Does it hurt?”

Xu Xia quickly shook her head, retracting her gaze back to the stage.

Leng Zirui’s gaze lingered on her profile, his eyes grazed her enticing lips and then froze.

”Now performing for us is the Luo Jun family with the song ’Brave’, let’s welcome them with applause!”

”Leng Zirui, look, Mo Mo is up!” Xu Xia said while clapping.

Leng Zirui’s gaze shifted to the stage as well.

Luo Jun took Leng Zimo and Luo Xiaoqian by the hand onto the stage, and the three of them bowed to the audience. Then Luo Jun sat down by the piano, Leng Zimo took the violin and stood to his side, while Luo Xiaoqian held the microphone and stood on his other side.
