Chapter 318: Out of character?
Luna was wondering whether or not to take a nap when the doorbell rang. This time, she was not spooked so instead of grabbing a floor lamp, she checked the monitor and was pleasantly surprised when she saw who the uninvited guest was.
"Come on in!" She cheerfully ushered him in as soon as she opened the door. She didn’t realize what she was doing until she launched herself into his arms all so naturally.
"Are you excited to see me?" Jiang Xingyu tapped her forehead as though praising her for being a good girl.
"Is it too late to pretend to be annoyed?" She pulled a pouty face, earning a chuckle from him.
"We both know that you couldn’t wait for me to come over, considering how close we are right now." He remarked with a proud expression.
She pulled away from him and went back to sit on the couch.
He sat down next to her. "You look more beautiful than you did the last time we met."
"Are those the kind of lies you use to pick up girls? Just so you know, it’s too outdated." She harrumphed.
He chortled at her theatrics. "Just so you know, I don’t ever ’pick up girls’. I am only interested in one girl and she is already next to me right now." He then pulled her into his arms, and she did not resist him. On the contrary, she willingly wrapped her arms around his neck when he sat her on his lap. He couldn’t help being curious. "You are so different today. You are so cheerful and...active." She was even more active than Lanni, which was strange considering how dull she usually was.
