Lin Xueting left a look for Qin Lu, suggesting that Qin Lu should seize the opportunity to clear things up with Liu Chen. Lin Xueting's departure also provided a chance for the two to be alone together.
It wasn't long before Qin Lu had also finished eating. Her cheeks were tinged with red, and she felt increasingly that the words she said in her room were too harsh, so she felt even guiltier and didn't dare to look at Liu Chen.
Liu Chen stood up, understanding in his heart that Qin Lu must already know about what happened last night.
Silence—perhaps both of them didn't know how to start the conversation.
"If you're done eating, I'll clean up the dishes!" Liu Chen said faintly, breaking the silence first.
"I'll do it. What kind of big man does housework!" At that moment, Qin Lu found a topic to talk about. She stood up and reached for the dishes on the table, and so did Liu Chen. In this way, their hands touched each other once again.
