“Um! I love it! My favourite cake is the Black Forest cake!”
“Although it is a bit bitter, however, after the bitterness of chocolate, you can taste the sweetness and sourness of cherries. I really like this taste. My mother bought me one when I was a kid, and I have never forgotten it ever since.”
Qiu Wanxi answered Lin Yuan’s question quickly, fluently and in detail.
“Ah... yes... sorry! I... I got carried away! Yes... sorry...”

In her opinion, it was already excessive to eat with Lin Yuan paying the money. Yet, she expressed her opinions and got carried away while doing so.
She was panicking so much so that the hand holding the fork was trembling.
“It’s okay, you spoke very well. The reason I like the Black Forest cake is also that after the bitterness passes away, the sweetness leaves a rich aftertaste.”
Lin Yuan gently touched Qiu Wanxi’s head.
Following Lin Yuan’s action, Qiu Wanxi calmed down.

“Don’t bow your head, you look so adorable when you are courageous.”
Qiu Wanxi’s pink cheeks turned redder upon hearing Lin Yuan’s words, but she still raised her head obediently.
“My... My name is Qiu Wanxi[1].” Qiu Wanxi introduced herself shyly and earnestly.
“Qiu Wanxi... it is truly a good name!” Although Lin Yuan had known her name for a long time, he still laughed and complimented.
“Thank you... Thank you!” Qiu Wanxi didn’t dare to look squarely at Lin Yuan; her big, beautiful eyes were shifting away from his.
“That...you are so good to me today, is it your influential family’s test on you? Are you making Tiktok videos? Or...”
Qiu Wanxi asked nervously, clutching the corner of her skirt.
This uneasiness was very reasonable, Qiu Wanxi felt that she was the Cinderella in the fairy tale, and Lin Yuan was her dazzling Prince.
Reality is not a fairy tale; she did not know how can she attract Lin Yuan.
