You are like the warm sun

Chapter 32 Hook? childish

Hearing his agreement, Tang Wan curled the corners of her lips.

"Thank you. I can get up later tomorrow then."

She checked the time and found it was already late. She got off the sofa and packed her schoolbag. "I'm going home today."

Shao Zhouci was stunned for a moment, then said "Oh" without any emotion.

She had stayed here for the past two days, so he naturally assumed she would stay here again today...

But it’s good that she’s gone.

She hasn't returned home lately these past two days, and her family must be very worried about her. I wonder how a girl like her could be so bold as to stay at a stranger's male classmate's house.

Tang Wan winked at him and said, "Then I'll leave."

"Ah."

She picked up her schoolbag, walked to the door, grasped the doorknob and turned it open.

Shao Zhouci stood lazily in the living room and watched her go, but when she was about to step out, she seemed to remember something and turned back, with a gentle light in her beautiful almond eyes.

His heart skipped a beat.

Just when he thought she had left something behind, the girl walked straight towards him, muttering worriedly, "I'm still a little worried..."

Shao Zhouci was slightly stunned, not understanding what was going on. "What?"

She extended a hand toward him, her little finger curled up slightly, "Let's make a pinky promise."

"Why the pinky promise? Childish."

Tang Wan pursed her lips and smiled. She very childishly reached out to hook his little finger, gently pulled it, and then solemnly pressed her thumb on it as a stamp of approval. "Shao Zhouci, remember to buy me breakfast tomorrow."

The focus of this sentence is not on "buying breakfast" but on "tomorrow".

She was afraid that he would do something to hurt her when he was alone, so she used this reminder and hint to plant a small seed of hope in his heart.

When she spoke these words, her tone was gentle and soft, and her eyes unconsciously revealed concern and worry, like a net that was trying to trap him tightly. This feeling was both dangerous and tempting to indulge in forever. After a brief moment of shock, Shao Zhouci's heart trembled, and he quickly withdrew his fingers as if he had been electrocuted.

Like a snail quickly retracting its protruding head back into its shell.

Tang Wan saw his reaction and felt a little disappointed. She put her hands behind her back and said in a relaxed tone, "I'm really leaving now. See you tomorrow."

"..."

After she left, the room returned to peace.

In the living room, the boy was lost in thought for a moment, holding the little finger he had just used to make a pinky promise.

He thought he seemed to be too indulgent about her approach.

In just a few days, it felt like she was burning a hole in my heart...

Realizing this, the boy's expression darkened. He lowered his head, his hair casting a shadow over it, and his straightened, pale lips gave off a cold and sinister expression.

the next morning.

As soon as Tang Wan arrived in the classroom, she saw a plate of hand-pulled pancake and a cup of soy milk on her desk. She picked it up and found that the hand-pulled pancake was still hot.

A good mood for the day starts in the morning.

Looking back at Shao Zhouci who was sleeping in the back row, she smiled and took a bite of the pancake with a wonderful mood.

No onions, no cilantro, no chili peppers, and plenty of ham and bacon, which is exactly his taste. So, he said he would buy his own breakfast, but ended up buying the hand-pulled pancake she mentioned?
Tang Wan couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

She memorized English words while eating, and her memory efficiency improved a lot.

However, her good mood only lasted for a short period of morning reading.

During the break, when she was handing in her homework, she took the initiative to ask him if he wanted to hand it in together, but he did not respond. Instead, he stood up silently and handed the homework to the group leader in the first row.

Tang Wan, suddenly ignored, pursed her lips in confusion.
