Throw them away?
When Lin Yiqian heard the word 'throw', she immediately raised her head without hesitation as she looked at the man pretending to be annoyed. "Give them to me instead."
She then looked at the chocolates in her hand again before casually adding, "Just pretend that you've thrown them away."
Lin Yiqian could not believe that she had just said such words.
To her surprise, she had actually forgone her own principles of pride and honor for a few boxes of chocolates from Gu Nianshen.
As the traffic light had turned green, Gu Nianshen looked forward as he drove on without responding to Lin Yiqian.
From the rearview mirror of the car, Lin Yiqian was able to see his smile becoming wider.
Indeed, that was what she saw just as she opened one of the boxes of chocolates. As she could not see his entire face, she was unable to discern his intentions.
Was he trying to insult her?
