The next day, I got up and, after washing up, headed for the kitchen where Qin Meng was bustling about. She glared at me when she saw me and then sidled away.
She must have guessed that last night I hadn't mistaken her for someone else; it was intentional.
I felt a bit embarrassed and hardly dared to speak to her.
She wasn't angry, just deliberately cautious around me, meticulously keeping her distance. But sometimes, our eyes would accidentally meet, and there was a shy look in hers.
Of course, I didn't dare anymore, so I just behaved myself.
For the next few days, we maintained a distant relationship. Not a word was exchanged when we met at home, which was especially awkward, until that afternoon when work was almost over, I received a call from Teacher Qin Lu, asking me to pick up her sister...
After work, I immediately rushed over.
I found her in a shopping mall, looking rather disheveled. Her coat was off and thrown aside, dirty and wet, as were her trousers and hair.
