Jiang Zuo could still remember that day clearly when his father had tasked him to bring her home for the holidays . Since it had been the Mid-Autumn festival, families would reunite and celebrate . He had used his resting time and had even postponed his meeting to get her but she had dismissed him that day, telling him she was busy .
Jiang Zuo wasn’t bothered since he was just accomplishing his task but when he arrived home, the mood wasn’t right .
Perhaps, they thought that he hadn’t been willing to get her but the festival had to be celebrated as usual and the table had been filled with her favorite dishes .
Jiang Zuo had taken a moment before reaching for the food, preparing to deliver it to the place she stayed . He had read esports related news occasionally and had known that she had been practicing hard to qualify for the Asian Cup .
Who would have thought? Before his car had entered her street, he had seen her sitting on a long bench near the road, with her head lifted to the skies and seemingly in deep thought .
She had seemed to be in a daze . Just as he had been about to alight, someone had walked over and grabbed her hand . They had seemingly arranged to meet . He had smiled, passing her an ice cream cone . It had seemed very much like a date .
Her face had been flushed, with laughter in her voice . “Coco, thank you . If it wasn’t for you, I would have to spend the holidays alone . ”
Coco had reached out and pushed her stray hair aside . “What’s important is that you’re happy . ”
They had sat for a while, playing with the cats nearby, showing a familiar smile that had been filled with chemistry .
At that moment, Jiang Zuo had tightened his grip on the steering wheel before releasing . In the end, he hadn’t alighted or said anything . Instead, he had turned the opposite direction . That day, he had been extremely frustrated .
What had she meant by spending the holidays alone? She was the one who hadn’t been willing to return home .
The more he tried to suppress his thoughts, the more they jumped to mind and that soft fatty would always appear before his eyes . When he had been frustrated and had wanted to talk back to his father and when he had been upset during his mother’s death anniversary; she had always been there by his side, listening to him silently .
Every time she had seen him, her entire soul had been his . That was the reason he had never exposed her secret crush on him .
He had been familiar with that look and had been well aware of how she had felt . He had never intended to reciprocate since he hadn’t been prepared for a relationship while he was still in school . Secondly, all his strength had been used on fighting against his father .
He had eaten the meticulously prepared breakfast . Besides, he had known that girls were attracted to his face .
It had been the most ordinary acts but yet, thinking about it now made him feel uncomfortable . In the beginning, it had been because her mom had become a part of his family but now, he could no longer explain the unease and discomfort .
He watched the screens . It was an eyesore, especially her smile when Coco hugged her, and he could no longer sit still .
He must be crazy, coming here to watch a livestream instead of resting . It was probably because he was afraid Qin Mo’s team would lose .
He stopped but the next time he glanced up, that person still hadn’t noticed him .
