Lin Wanwan’s silence made Lu Zhanbei experience perturbation for the first time . He turned on autopilot and asked again .
“Will you?”
Lin Wanwan was timid . She sensed a hint of pleading from his voice .
She bit her lips as she met Lu Zhanbei’s inviting eyes . It was an expression that infused all his sentiment and devotion .
She was moved .
“I…” She felt like it was only natural to accept his love, then the conversation they had in the garden resurfaced in her mind .
Immediately, her fondness faded .
“Who knows? It’s still too early for this . ”
Lu Zhanbei saw the change of emotions in Lin Wanwan and let out a sigh of disappointment .
He had waited until the day that Lin Wanwan developed feelings for him, and confessed .
Just as he thought, she was moved by her proposal, and almost agreed to it .
It was so close…
Smart as he was, he could tell exactly what was still bugging Lin Wanwan .
Holding in his frustration, he changed the topic as if nothing had just happened .
“I have placed an order from Golden Sparrow to deliver some desserts to Yun Mansion . Do you want to come over and have some?”
He needed a chance to spill his guts .
If it were last time, there was no way Lin Wanwan would have refused . However, she wasn’t in the mood today .
“No!” She pinched her brows together when she realized that her tone was rather harsh . “Sorry . I don’t have an appetite today . Maybe next time . ”
Lu Zhanbei glanced at her . She was scratching her forehead in confusion, and her frowning expression was adorable as usual .
He didn’t insist . “Ok . Up to you . ”
Lin Wanwan tilted her head and watched as the concrete jungle zoomed past her . Scenes kept popping up in her mind .
The chat in the garden, and his face when he confessed…
Half an hour later, the car stopped at the back gate of Lin Wanwan’s school .
Lin Wanwan stepped out of the car, made a quick turn, and looked Lu Zhanbei in the eyes .
“You…”
Watching her hesitate, Lu Zhanbei asked, “What about me?”
Lin Wanwan bit her lips and decided to leave her questions for later . “Nothing . I’ll go first . Rest well . Bye . ”
She rushed off right after .
Lu Zhanbei watched as her figure was swallowed by the night . His lips curved as his eyes flickered with excitement .
His favorite girl was finally about to wake up .
Lin Wanwan got back to her dormitory . She tossed and turned in bed, but couldn’t sleep at all . Instead, it was frustration that was brewing in her heart .
She sprang up and dialed Ruan Baoer’s number .
The phone rang for quite a while before it was picked up . Baoer sounded half-asleep . “Do you know that it’s not nice to be calling people in the middle of the night?”
“Sorry~ I didn’t know that you were asleep . Another day then . ”
“Never mind . I can’t sleep after waking up anyways . Tell me, what’s wrong?” Ruan Baoer yawned .
“I couldn’t fall asleep, so I wanted someone to talk to . ”
