Chapter 81: Red Thread is All Messed Up (1)

  "Beep, beep-beep, beep-beep-beep..."

  I wound up the alarm clock, sat up from bed with my eyes closed, looked at the time, hurriedly got dressed and washed, put on my school uniform and was about to go downstairs when I caught a glimpse of a tall figure outside the window.

  It's only 6:50, and I didn't expect Bae Jung-min to arrive earlier than scheduled. I tidied up my backpack and remembered that I needed to bring a laptop for today's class, so I rushed back to the dormitory, grabbed my computer bag, and quickly went downstairs.

  "Good morning!" I quietly approached him as he stood with his back to the dormitory, and deliberately greeted him loudly beside him.

  As expected, Bae Jung-min was startled and turned around with a look of lingering shock on his face. His upper and lower teeth collided, making a faint sound, and he raised his hand to say, "Good morning!"

  His next move was somewhat unexpected, he took the computer bag from me and walked alongside me. At first, I was taken aback, then a faint joy arose in my heart, thinking of An Qi's words that he was very considerate, I couldn't help but laugh, if An Qi knew that the real deal was now walking beside me, she would probably be so excited that she'd pass out.

  "Heh." Thinking of An Qi's stunned expression, I couldn't help but cover my mouth and burst out laughing.

  "What's wrong?" Bae Jung-min asked, his eyes wandering around the scenery from time to time until my laughter broke the slightly awkward atmosphere. He scratched his head with a somewhat goofy smile, then looked down shyly and raised his head again, his eyes filled with courage. He cleared his throat and said, "Vivian, I have something to tell you."

  "Alright, go ahead." I also stopped in my tracks and stood under the shade of a tree, looking at him. The school's special vehicle that was parked nearby closed its doors and slowly drove away from the platform. I shrugged, pretending to be nonchalant, and said, "Go ahead."

  Bae Jung-min took a step forward and looked straight at me. He took a deep breath, with a firm expression, met my gaze, "Please go out with me!"

  "Really?" Did I hear that wrong? I tilted my head to confirm again, and it was still the same as before. He said: Please go out with me.

  This time I heard clearly, besides being surprised, there was also a small sense of pride. I didn't expect that the scandal that was hyped up back then had some truth to it. Bae Jung Min actually likes me! If Ahn Ki knew, her mouth would probably be shaped like an "O" just like mine is now!!!
