Chapter 24: Partners in crime
"I’m heading back too." Ah Chen said.
On their way back, he fought the urge to ask her out until he couldn’t fight it anymore. "Lanni, could we go home together after school?"
Li Lanni wasn’t an idiot. It was obvious that this young man liked her. She wasn’t ready for any relationship. Who knew if she had a boyfriend already? Before she was sure that she remembered her past, she shouldn’t simply get close to any man.
Hence, she rejected him politely. "After school, my mother will be waiting for me."
"How about tomorrow?"
"Sorry, I have to undertake extra classes at home."
Ah Chen was now sure that she was deliberately avoiding him.
If this was before, he would have cursed her and hurled rude insults at her. However, it was not the first time he was trying to ask Li Lanni out.
The first time he did so was a year ago when he first saw her. She had just entered university and was as innocent as any girl her age could be. At the time, she had given him the cold shoulder.
He was so angry that he ended up humiliating her in front of the other students.
One had to know that he was the heir of an aristocratic family. Not only that, he was also the most handsome guy in B City University as well as the one with the most excellent grades. His reputation was clean and he had only ever been with one girl before. What right did a girl have to reject him?
