Chapter 73 Part 3

The youth’s gaze was heavy as he looked at the girl who had already sat down and was carefully studying the problems.

She had not said a word to him since she entered the door. As soon as she moved the table, she quickly started to answer the questions. She left him with only the view of the back of her head and her delicate and fair neck…

“Man Man, I’m going to prepare some fruit. Can you help me?”

Zhang Man hesitated for a moment before she nodded and stood up. She walked towards the kitchen.

He even bought fruit, which was quite thoughtful. Despite his grudge, it seemed like he was looking forward to everyone coming.

After Zhang Man went out, the youth also followed and walked out. Everyone was sitting down and brushing up on questions as they stuck their heads up to view the potential gossip happening.

Were they stupid? Making coffee could be done by one person, but did cutting fruit require two people to do?

Unfortunately, their gaze was terminated by the boss’s cool gaze. Everyone shrank their necks as they watched the boss close the door to the study.

… He closed the door.

Cao Zhixue: F***! Do I still want to go to the bathroom? Should I go or not go? … It’s better not to go. If I accidentally bump into something, boss will definitely not let me go.

…

Zhang Man walked to the kitchen and saw a box of large and bright strawberries on the cooking table.

It looked very sweet.

She took a fruit washing colander from a shelf, and poured the strawberries into it. She turned on the sink, rolled up her sleeves, and started rinsing.

Not long after washing, she heard a burst of eager footsteps. She turned around and the warm breath of the youth had already approached.

His arms wrapped around her from behind, tightly restraining her waist and dragging her back. The hot breath landed on her neck, and it was heavier than usual.

The expression on his face was no longer so calm. There was an uncontrollable enthusiasm.

Zhang Man’s heart softened. She put down the colander and turned around. “What’s wrong?”

The youth’s gaze was deep and he looked at her in such a straight manner, with endless resentment in his eyes.

She was a bit amused and wanted to touch his face, but her hands were wet and she didn’t move.

“Boyfriend, you’re not allowed to mess with me. Didn’t I ask you yesterday if I could ask a few more classmates to come? You agreed.”

Yesterday he asked her if she wanted to go to his house for self-study, and she immediately asked him. He clearly said “yeah” and even kissed her several times. Why was he so resentful now?

The youth’s expression looked somewhat puzzled.

Yesterday he asked her if she wanted to come to his house for self-study, and she nodded… Then, when she leaned against his chest and said something, there was a thunder sound at the time, and his heart was beating fast, so he didn’t even hear her.

Fine… seems like she did say that.

But he never heard her. If he did, how could he possibly agree? It’s not easy for them to get a whole day to spend alone.

It’s not easy…

She didn’t even know how much he missed her. He even had that dream yesterday.

The youth raised his hand with a dejected expression. His brows furrowed and his face pressed against the girl’s neck. “Man Man, I didn’t hear you. I thought we were the only ones today… I miss you so much, Man Man.”

His voice was hoarse and deep. It didn’t waver, but every word was falling down, as if it was dragged by something heavy.

Heavy… longing.

Zhang Man’s heart softened into a clear spring. She didn’t care about the water on her hands. She gently moved the youth’s head and held his cheeks. She looked up at his drooping eyes, and asked, “So you bought flowers, lit candles, and… also wore this shirt?”

She had asked him to wear it many times before, but he refused to wear it. Unexpectedly, he put it on today—this cute pink Mickey Mouse shirt.

Zhang Man’s heart was both aching and warm.

The person she loved the most was a cold and reserved person. Because of her, he did many, many things in the world for her.

However, the youth was not thinking like this.

The romantic moves he made turned out to be clumsy and awkward. He awkwardly opened his eyes and nodded.

At the same time his heart was itching, there was also a little unexplainable grievance.

He even washed the clothes, tidied up the sofa, and mopped the floor.

With such grievances hitting his heart, he was a bit shaken.

Grievance? This kind of emotion had not existed in nearly ten years.

He was getting more used to having someone love him, so some small things could make him feel aggrieved.

Zhang Man carefully looked at him for a while, and her longing reached its peak in her heart.

During this period of time, in order to prepare for the competition, she forced herself to devote at least 12 hours a day studying.

Why didn’t she miss him?

Every time she saw him, she wanted to rush forward and hold him regardless of anything.

There would always be a voice in her heart that was constantly convincing her: Don’t learn, kiss him, hug him, go to a movie, go shopping and eat together, and more. 

But as long as she thought of things in this way, she wouldn’t be able to solve the difficult problems in front of her.

Her courage to persevere was because of him, and the temptation to sneak away was also because of him.

He was too deadly for her, and easily caused her to lose all self-control. She did not have enough talent. If her heart was focused on dating him, how could she learn?

So a rational voice would jump out.

Just go ahead and play around for the next few months. You will be separated from him for at least a year, and if you can’t get into B University, you will be separated from him for four years of college. 

Thus, she could only force herself to study hard.

Her dreams every day were of him.

Zhang Man gently pushed him away in the youth’s puzzled and sad eyes.

She walked to the kitchen door, closed it. With a “click”, it was locked.
