After a while, Channing crushed out the cigarette in his hand and said indifferently, "It’s time to go back."
Clarence took out his phone, "You go in first. I'll make a call."
Channing nodded and turned towards the bathroom.
He had just returned to the door of the private room when he saw Winnie coming out of it, then stopped in his
tracks.
Winnie was quiet for a few seconds before raising her hand to greet him, "Hi."
Channing said, "Where are you going?"
Winnie was going to go to the bathroom, but it wasn't a good idea to answer in this situation, so she made an
excuse, "It's too stuffy in there. I'm going out for a walk."
Channing pursed his lips, "Come along then."
Winnie could only nod stiffly.
Downstairs, there were rockeries and pavilions. The sound of the fountain was soothing and calming to the mind.
They walked side by side, not too fast and not too slow.
After a while, Channing asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
Winnie let out a breath, "Let's talk about it tomorrow. Anyway, there's always a road ahead."
Channing kept his head down and didn't say anything.
Winnie inclined her head to look at him, and slowly clenched her hands hanging at the sides. He spoke softly,
"Thank you."
Channing looked up, "What are you thanking me for?"
Winnie chuckled and looked ahead again, "Nothing. I just wanted to thank you."
Channing couldn't help but stop and look at her back.
Winnie took a few steps before she realized Channing wasn't following. She turned back, "What's wrong?"
Channing stood there and said calmly, "You asked me before what kind of girl I like."
Hearing his words, Winnie couldn't help but freeze. The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she didn't know
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhat to say. She stammered, "Yes ... yes ..."
"Courtesy demands reciprocity. Then shouldn't you also tell me what kind of boy you like?"
Winnie, probably not expecting him to ask that, stood there and didn’t say anything.
Channing lifted his leg and stepped closer towards her.
As he stopped, Winnie quickly averted her eyes and joked, "I'm not a little girl anymore. I'm way past the age of
'what kind of boy I like'. There are no standards. On the contrary, you are at the right age to fall in love on campus,
and it's a wonderful thing. You have to take your chances... Otherwise, it's gone if you miss it."
Channing simply ignored her words and said, "So what do you think of me?"
Winnie forced a smile, "You're good. You have good grades. You are smart and handsome. There are lots of girls
who like you. You..."
Channing interrupted her, "That's not what I asked."
Winnie didn't know where to look. As she looked around, she turned her head and met Channing's candid and quiet
eyes, as if waiting for her answer.
Winnie felt that she was short of breath and her heart kept racing.
At that moment, two girls passed by and were discussing Winnie and Chassell. It was obvious that they were
probably Winnie's fans.
Channing was tall and good-looking. Even as he stood there doing nothing, he silently drew the eyes of passers-by.
Just as they looked over, Winnie suddenly felt her wrist being gripped.
The next second, she was dragged into the boy's arms.
He was wearing clean, short-sleeved trousers, and the unique hormonal scent of a teenager was hot.
The two girls couldn't help but squeal at the sight.
"Did you see that? Did you see that? That boy is so handsome!"
"I saw it! Is he a star? Why do I think I've seen him somewhere?"
"I think he looks familiar too. And with his look, he'd be a big hit if he was a star. Is he an internet celebrity?"
"I don't know... Also, I think his girlfriend is pretty, and her back looks like Winnie."
"Oh my God, if she looks like Winnie, she must be a gorgeous too. The two of them look good together."
"I'm jealous again."
The two girls talked while turning back frequently.
It wasn't until they were far away that Channing let go of her hand.
Winnie finally reacted and took two steps back.
Channing said, "Sorry. I see you're not wearing a mask."
Winnie's cheeks flushed, not sure if it was from being held in his arms or what. She stammered, "No... it's fine. Let's
go back."
With that, she turned around in a fluster and lowered her head as she walked forward.
Channing called out to her, "That way."
Damn it.
She turned back again and quickened her pace to leave.
Channing withdrew his gaze and looked down at his palm while he seemed to still feel the warmth of her skin.
...
In the private room, seeing that Channing had not returned, Sherry had started looking for another way and
downloaded a lot of dating apps on her phone.
Seeing this, Stella leaned closer towards Clarence and lowered her voice to ask, "What the hell is going on with
Daniel? Did you find out?"
Clarence poured her another glass of water and spoke nonchalantly, "I'll tell you when I get back."
Stella looked at Sherry again and was a little worried.
Elaine, who had been slow to react once she had eaten, finally sensed what Sherry meant. She asked, "Sherry, are
you looking for a boyfriend?"
Sherry said, "Yeah, do you have any suitable relatives in your family to introduce me to?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmElaine thought about it for a moment and said tentatively, "I have another uncle."
Hearing her words, Sherry became interested and asked, "Is your ANOTHER uncle handsome?"
Elaine nodded solemnly, "Yes."
He was indeed quite pleasant to the eye.
Sherry's eyes lit up, "Is he in good shape?"
Elaine thought for a moment and continued to nod, "Yes."
She hadn't seen it, but it should be okay.
Sherry said, "Introduce him to me!"
Just as she finished, Clarence's voice came from a short distance away, "Why don't you ask her what his name is?"
Sherry thought so and asked Elaine again, "What's your uncle's name?"
Elaine said, "Darnell James."
Sherry was speechless.
The fighting spirit that had just been aroused in her disappeared in an instant.
Was she joking with her?
Elaine said, "He's just a bit mean, but I've noticed lately that he seems only to be mean to me. The rest of the time,
he's indifferent and silent, but not that intimidating."
Sherry said, "Forget it. I'm not that lucky."
Stella fought back the urge to laugh and stroked Elaine's head, "Let's eat."
By the time Channing and Winnie returned, they had almost finished eating.
When they got out of the restaurant, Winnie said, "My driver is still waiting for me. I'll just go ahead."
With that, she ran away without looking back.
Stella looked at her back as she panicked and couldn't help but turn her head to Channing and ask, "What did you
do?"
Channing looked away, "I didn't do anything."
