“Do we not know each other well? If we’re not close, you can’t help me carry my
Jiang Lingzhi frowned and thought about it for a while. She said, “In this case, we’re close then.”Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
She sounded even more self-righteous than he was.
The corners of Li Shunan’s lips curved up a little.
‘Okay then.’
‘Consider us close.’
He reached over to grab her schoolbag, which was rather light, and he could hold it in his hand effortlessly.
Jiang Lingzhi’s hand was now free, and she could finally enjoy her food. She poked a fish ball with a bamboo skewer and popped the entire fish ball in her mouth. It was juicy and springy.
She praised in a muffled voice, “Mm, this is delicious.”
Li Shunan looked at her sideways and asked, “Have you never eaten it before?” Jiang Lingzhi’s cheeks were bulging because her mouth was full of food, and she was about to nod.
However, she did not want to make herself look like such an inexperienced and ignorant bumpkin. Hence, after swallowing the fish ball, she said calmly, “I’ve eaten it before.”
“We’re here. Do you really want me to send you home?” Li Shunan asked lazily, standing languidly under the streetlamp.
Jiang Lingzhi finally reacted and tossed her paper cup away into the dustbin at the roadside. She then walked towards him.
Under the dim streetlight, the girl tilted her head, appearing obedient and harmless. “Thank you so much for everything today.”
Li Shunan was wearing a white shirt, and the night breeze was causing the hem of his shirt to move. Appearing neat and refined, he looked down at her condescendingly. “Do you know the way home?”
Jiang Lingzhi answered with a nod, “Yes.”
Li Shunan raised his arm and handed her bag back to her. He was about to say something, but thinking that he had nothing to do with her, he suddenly felt that it would be a bit strange to give her some words of advice.
He took out the yogurt that he had just bought at the convenience store, from the pocket of his trousers, and placed it directly in her arms.
He pursed his lips and lifted his eyelids. After a pause, he said lazily, “I’m leaving.”
After saying that, he turned around and left without stopping.
With her schoolbag and the bottle of yogurt, Jiang Lingzhi stared at the back of the boy as he walked away.
He was really a strange person.
He smoked, and he seemed like a gangster boss who knew many other delinquents.
However, he was also a person with gentle mannerisms..
