Chapter 835: Wood Awakens 8
He Teng arrived early, but since he didn’t want to disturb He Zhilan at work, he just parked the car at the entrance without going in to find her. He waited for her to come out before he finally called out to her, the little woman who hadn’t noticed his presence at all.
"Where to? Didn’t you see me here?" He Teng shoved his hands into his pockets and walked towards He Zhilan, nodded to her colleagues, and completely ignored Sister Lin’s suggestive smile.
Like a Door God descending from the heavens, He Zhilan really hadn’t noticed there was such a presence at the door. She chuckled and nodded, "Isn’t it because I didn’t see you? When did you arrive? Since you’re here, why didn’t you come in to find me?"
"Just got here a moment ago." He Teng touched his nose and specifically added, "I was out on an errand and just came to pick you up on the way, not specifically to pick you up."
He Zhilan oh’ed, looking at He Teng puzzledly, "I didn’t say you came specifically to pick me up, what are you explaining for?"
In her heart, He Zhilan also figured, who is He Teng? A big lump of wood, it took her over three years to warm him up, an unromantic blockhead, could he specifically come to pick her up after work? Such a classy and romantic act, could that be something He Teng would do?
But He Teng not outrightly denying it would have been fine, his silence would have prevented He Zhilan from thinking in that direction, but with his specific explanation, He Zhilan couldn’t help but think more.
"Bro, could it be that you really came specifically to pick me up?" He Zhilan chuckled, took a few steps to close in on He Teng and said, "Brother, thank you, I’m very happy!"
"No!" He Teng replied stiffly and swiftly, then turned his face away and strode towards the car, not looking back as he hurried He Zhilan to get in.
