Seeing that the two of them returned home so late, Gu's mother, who was cooking in the kitchen, couldn't help but tease them, "Why did you two get home so late today? What did you do after school, go on a date?"
This frivolous guess...
Gu Zhihan couldn't help but frown, "You're thinking too much. We got home late because Luo Mengmeng was getting her ears pierced and it took some extra time."
"You both went together to get ear piercings and that's not a date?" Gu's mother exclaimed excitedly, waving her spatula.
"Is that what you call a date?" Gu Zhihan retorted, the dismay more evident on his forehead.
Who would go get their ears pierced on a date?
"Just shut up!" Gu's mother couldn't stand her son ruining the mood any longer, and after giving him a glare, she turned to admire Mengmeng's ear piercings, praising, "Our Mengmeng is really brave, daring to get her ears pierced."
"Actually, I cried a lot... I wasn't brave at all..."
