Was Dongfang Yu complimenting her?
"Are you saying that my drawings are really good? That they might be worth 5 million?" Hai Xiaotang asks, her face lighting up with excitement.
Dongfang Yu looks up to meet her radiant smile.
The gleam in her clear, dark eyes seems to sparkle with stars; it's dazzling.
Dongfang Yu seems momentarily dazed.
"So, do you think I can get the 5 million?" Hai Xiaotang asks again.
"Are you that desperate for the prize money?" Dongfang Yu asks, lips curling into a faint smile.
"Absolutely! Why else would I be drawing? Can I really get the 5 million?" Hai Xiaotang asks, unable to conceal her joy.
As he meets her hopeful gaze, Dongfang Yu's heart seems to flutter uncontrollably.
He gazes deep into her eyes, an incredulous smile creeping onto his face.
Why did he think her... adorable just now? Was he losing his mind?
Hai Xiaotang misinterprets his smile and grows instantly nervous. "Well? Can I or can't I? If I can't, just say so."
