Chapter 80: Seventy-One - : Yuezi (4)
Clovis always said she was clumsy, but when Malin taught her to dance, the Bunny Girl got it in no time, outstripping Malin by a mile in terms of natural talent for dancing.
Malin could only comfort himself with the thought that "a perfect mortal doesn’t exist."
As one dance concluded, Malin let go of her hand, and Clovis, smiling, switched places with Faye. Watching her dance with Jessica and sensing the different dynamic between the wolf and the rabbit, Malin smiled as he took Faye’s small hand.
"How did you think to invite Clovis?"
"Because we were one person short, and we sisters didn’t want to dance with any dumb men other than you."
With that answer, Malin felt a mix of happiness and satisfaction, and he shrugged his shoulders, "To be honest, I’m extremely happy and also a bit... apprehensive about you all thinking that way."
As a once steely straight guy who had been a lone wolf as long as he’d been alive, Malin was feeling, for the first time, the girls’ affection and gentleness so directly.
"Apprehensive about what, dummy? You deserve it," Faye said as she glanced toward a spot not far away.
Malin turned his head to follow Faye’s gaze and saw his classmates, those without female partners, standing or squatting at the edge of the dance floor, their eyes emitting a faint blue glow.
"I remember once you mentioned something about being single... ah, a ’single dog.’" Faye chuckled, resting her forehead against Malin’s, "They really do look the part, don’t they?"
