Chapter 31 Glitch

Just like that, the two became a couple. Even though it was absolutely not the result Luo Xiaolei was desperately aiming for, she thought that it wasn’t bad news at all. The fact that she became his girlfriend within the span of exactly 24 hours was honestly quite unbelievable.

Thinking about it, she thought that being his girlfriend was actually a good thing since making a move on him was now easier.

On their way back home, Luo Xiaolei was quiet. She was busy thinking about what she should do next. She was thinking about what approach might work on him so he would accept her proposal within a short period of time. She was too engrossed with her thoughts that she didn’t notice that Yu Chen had been gazing at her since they entered the car.

"Are you okay?" Yu Chen’s deep voice jolted her awake from her deep thinking. She immediately turned to him and when she realized that she’d been silent all this time, she could only scold herself. Luo Xiaolei! How could you forget that this man was still beside you?! He might think that you’re ignoring him at this rate!!

"I-I’m fine, I’m just thirsty. Hehe." She quickly replied as she forced a laugh. She thought that he might mistake her silence as a hint that she was not pleased being his girlfriend so she could only lie that she’s thirsty.

But the moment Yu Chen heard her, he immediately asked the driver to stop and find a place to buy her something to drink.

"Mr. Yu, there’s no need. I will have a drink once we reach my home." Luo Xiaolei tried to stop him but Yu Chen didn’t budge.

"No, it’s not good to ignore your thirst for too long." He said and Luo Xiaolei could only press her lips tightly because the car had already stopped.

Gu Wei then stepped out as he asked Luo Xiaolei. "Miss Luo, what drink do you prefer? Water or milk tea?" he asked and Luo Xiaolei didn’t know why but she blurted out ’milk tea’. Err... why did he include milk tea among the choices? Sigh... never mind.

...

Time passed and they finally reached Luo Xiaolei’s apartment. She said her gratitude and even told him that she would see him again tomorrow.

After saying goodnight, Luo Xiaolei started taking steps to leave when Yu Chen quietly followed her. Luo Xiaolei immediately noticed and she turned back to him.

"Mr. Yu, there’s no need to send me to my door. I’ll be fine." Luo Xiaolei tried stopping Yu Chen politely but the man didn’t stop and he continued walking towards her.

"As your boyfriend, I have to accompany you until you enter your home. It is my duty to make sure that you safely get home." He said and Luo Xiaolei was a bit stupefied as she immediately gave in.

"O-okay, thank you." She replied and she continued walking as Yu Chen caught up to her and walked beside her.

The atmosphere between them wasn’t tense despite their silence. Luo Xiaolei felt like she was more relaxed than she thought even though she was actually wracking her brain for a while now to think about a good topic to start a conversation. Since Yu Chen came, she already tried all sorts of topics that might lead to a good conversation between them but strangely, Yu Chen’s responses were always unintentionally killing the chat before it even had a chance to flow with his oh so straightforward minimalistic words. It looked like Yu Chen’s idea of them getting to know each other first was indeed the obvious right step because this showed her that she really didn’t know a thing about him.

As she thought about it, Luo Xiaolei realized that maybe, knowing something about him was the key to make him accept her proposal. Alright! Now I know what to do next!

Finally, Luo Xiaolei looked like she just solved a piece of difficult puzzle. She suddenly seemed confident and she was spacing out again. She didn’t even realize that they were already in front of the elevator and that it was already open until Yu Chen held her hand.

"Let’s go." He said and Luo Xiaolei scolded herself again as she hastily entered with him. Luo Xiaolei! Stop planning! Wait until he leaves!

When the elevator started moving up, Luo Xiaolei was about to speak when suddenly...

The light of the elevator turned on and off. Then after another second, they heard a loud sound and the cabin stopped, causing Luo Xiaolei to lose her balance and was about to fall when Yu Chen caught her.

Luo Xiaolei’s heart began beating wildly. Was it because she was suddenly in his arms now? No way! It’s because you’re nervous!

"Are you okay?" Yu Chen’s voice reached Luo Xiaolei’s ears and she quickly nodded. Somehow, she didn’t feel that scared. Was it because he was here?

Gladly, it looked like it was just a glitch and the elevator began working again. When it opened, they both quickly stepped out with his arm still wrapped around her.

"T-thank you." Luo Xiaolei said as she pulled away. But the moment she looked at him, her eyes widened. W-what?! My milk tea spilled on him?! Luo Xiaolei!! What have you done?!
