Her sinful and wilful nonchalance might have been overlooked by Xiao Zhiren but Zhu Jie knew her like the back of his own hand. That lover boy really had taken action! This news was a happy surprise to him and he completely dropped his suspicion of seeing her here. Perhaps, he had a little too much to drink earlier.

"Why do I feel like he might soon be able to cross the ice-cold walls around your heart? Or maybe, he could melt them away." Zhu Jie voiced out in a pleasantly happy way.

"Let’s not assthings," Ru replied calmly and saw Xiao Zhiren taking a few steps back to maintain sdistance between them while his face looked dark.

"Careful my dearest friend, your words can cback to bite you." After that, the conversation was rather formal and basic.

After she hung up the phone, she was left with a smile on her face which felt like it was piercing his heart. She had never smiled like this at him. It was pure love in her eyes. Damn it! Who the hell was on that phone call?

"Was-Was it your boyfriend?" He asked cautiously.

’Boyfriend? Jie is a boy and my friend. So...’ "Yup!" She answered with her own logic in mind while Zhiren had something completely different in his mind.

He bit his lower lip in an effort to calm himself and said, "I thought Alev Knight was your boyfriend."

"You can say that too." She answered absentmindedly.

"But you said inside that you are your own crush." He reminded her of her own words which were completely contradicting.

"But a crush doesn’t necessarily have to be your boyfriend. I have plenty of boyfriends but no crush other than myself." She retorted while trying to figure out what exactly was going on with him.

"F*ck! Rong, are you planning on opening a harem?" Xiao Zhiren snapped at her with a glare.

"Harem? Have you lost your mind? How can my friends beca part of my harem?" She questioned curiously. She seriously was questioning his sanity but how could he be sane when his rationality was thrown out the window already. She was back to talking like a male while she talked so nicely to the person over the phone. It made him beyond jealous!

"They. Are. Your. Boyfriends." He enunciated each word through gritted teeth.

"Aren’t you also my boyfriend?" Her words took him by surprise. No, it was definitely; shock! "I mean, you are also a boy and can be considered a friend at this point. That makes you a boyfriend as well."

When her words finally sank in, Xiao Zhiren realized how wrong he was. He was losing his rationality way too easily because of her. But it wasn’t his fault. There were too many bees around his honey.

He was suddenly so happy that he couldn’t possibly describe in words at all. She was about to walk away when he grabbed her wrist and pulled her back. "I have a question."

At first, she frowned at his sudden pull but straightening up, she said, "Ask away."

"Who was on the phone call?" His hands had cto rest on her waist and Ru could feel the heat of his big hands through the thin fabric of her shirt.

"Ummm..." She was lost for words for a second before saying, "Someone who lecturedabout making nice memories. I don’t even know what nice memories are. How am I gonna make some?" She was trying to joke but he suddenly pulled her body close, leaving no space between them anymore.

His eyes were looking into hers but they had slightly shifted to look at her lips which were pressed together. He lifted his eyelids to look into her eyes again.

As his one hand lifted to brush her fringes away from her eyes, she asked, "What are you doing?"

He gave a low laugh which seemed to breeze through her lips as he asked, "Why? Are you scared?"

Ru chuckled mischievously and said, "Scared? And me? What a jok..."

The rest of the words were died down on her tongue as his face leaned forward to kiss her lips. It caught her off guard since he had played the sgbefore with her but nothing happened back then.

This was a completely new territory for Ru who had ventured off to extrplaces.

The kiss certainly carried his spearmint mint aroma which she could taste in her own mouth. His heated breath was on her along with his warm lips pressing on hers. Before she could cback to senses and push him away, he bit her lips a bit harshly making her gasp.

"Now, this is your bittersweet memory."
