Yue Linze was helpless, “It’s true.”
“If I believed you, I’d be an idiot,” Tao Yu shot him a cold laugh.
Yue Linze laughed and reached out to pull her while bending down to preserve the “evidence”. Tao Yu didn’t expect him to grab her and tried to retreat, but when she stood up, she stepped on Yue Linze’s shoe and didn’t put enough force on her foot.
Yue Linze had calculated her resistance when he pulled her. When she didn’t struggle and instead crashed into him while he was bent over, his lips accidentally touched the corner of Tao Yu’s mouth.
The air froze for a second. The next moment, Tao Yu pushed him away, forgetting all about her program and anger, and roared, “What are you doing?!”
Yue Linze looked at her innocently, his ears turning slightly red. He noticed the steamed bun crumbs were gone from her mouth, unconsciously touched his own lips, and was satisfied to find the “evidence” was still there.
“Prison guard, you’re an idiot,” Yue Linze pinched the white bit and held it in front of her, looking as pleased as if he’d made a great harvest.
Tao Yu: “…
Yue Linze decisively pretended not to see, smiling and saying, “Little prison guard, I’m leaving now. Starting tomorrow, don’t come to deliver meals anymore.”
He strode away after speaking.
“Stop!” Tao Yu suddenly raised her voice, then immediately softened her tone, realizing she needed his help.
Yue Linze looked at her questioningly, “Is there something else, little prison guard?”
“For the sake of me delivering meals to you for so many days, can you help me with something?” Tao Yu coughed, a faint blush spreading across her face.
Yue Linze looked at her with interest, “Tell me first.”
Tao Yu glanced at him and explained the welcome party matter.
Yue Linze raised an eyebrow, surprisingly surprised, “There’s really an inspection team?”
“Yes, didn’t I tell you long ago?” Although it was troublesome, Tao Yu felt inexplicably justified, knowing her casual lie had accidentally become reality.
So her kindness these past days wasn’t because she was interested in him. Yue Linze blinked, suddenly realizing that if the inspection team was real, her having a fiancé must also be true?
He suddenly felt unhappy.
