Tao Yu rolled her eyes and silently handed him the soy milk. Yue Linze immediately grabbed it and drank it in two or three gulps.
Tao Yu watched him finish drinking and handed him a steamed bun. Yue Linze moved over, making space for her to sit.
Tao Yu sat silently, watching him eat. Neither spoke.
“You…”
“You should apologize to me,” Tao Yu interrupted him, speaking seriously. “I think you owe me an apology.”
Yue Linze stared at her for a long time, then slowly said: “Okay, I can apologize, but first, answer my question.”
“What?” Tao Yu asked calmly.
Yue Linze’s fingers curled slightly, speaking normally: “Who is ‘Sir’?”
Tao Yu was first stunned, then her eyes widened.
Yue Linze looked at her gradually pale face, and his heart immediately ached. He slowly exhaled, coldly grabbing her hand.
The force on her hand instantly brought Tao Yu back to her senses. She was stunned for a moment before difficultly saying, “Sir, is…”
“No need to say more.” Yue Linze immediately interrupted, unable to explain his own state of mind. When she refused to speak, he always wanted to force out the truth, but when she was about to explain, he dared not listen.
Yes, he was afraid.
Tao Yu pursed her lips and whispered, “Anyway, you should know that I didn’t like anyone else. That day… was my first time, you know.” At least in this world’s first time.
Yue Linze curved his lips, ultimately saying nothing more. Tao Yu stared at him for a long time, her eyelids growing heavy again.
“Sorry.”
Tao Yu, about to yawn, was stunned, then was embraced by him, hearing him muffled voice say, “Sorry, did I hurt you.”
Tao Yu blinked, suddenly feeling a surge of emotion. After a while, she sighed, “It was my fault. I should be the one saying sorry. Although I can’t explain everything, I hope you understand that I haven’t betrayed you, and I’m not thinking about any other man.”
Yue Linze nodded, though he didn’t believe Tao Yu’s words and didn’t pursue the matter further. After all, she was his, and could only be his.
Tao Yu, held by him, couldn’t help but yawn.
Yue Linze raised an eyebrow, “Sleepy?”
