Chapter 13: One Cup Of Chaos, Please
Zhao Yiming widened his eyes, ignoring the perverted deity's nonsense and focusing only on Su Meilin.
She tucked her hair behind her ear, cheeks tinged with a soft blush—and for some reason, his heart skipped a beat.
"Umm... that's—"
Before he could finish, she gave an awkward chuckle and waved her hand. "Sorry. I shouldn't have invited you on a whim. You must be busy today too." She stood up, clearly preparing to leave.
But Zhao Yiming instinctively reached out and gently held her hand.
He didn't know why—but he didn't want her to go just yet.
"...It's fine," he said quietly. "I don't have anything to do today. Can I... come to your apartment?"
He wasn't even sure what kind of face he was making, but Su Meilin turned away shyly, her blush deepening as she gave a slow, small nod.
They walked together toward her building—the third and highest one in the complex, known to be the most luxurious of the three.
Back when he was Lao Chen, he'd only been inside once. At the time, he'd thought it was just another apartment. Nothing special.
But now? Yeah... okay. It was way nicer than his. Though, it was still a mid range apartment instead of a luxurious one.
