"That’s the couple with the Totoro just now!"

A deliberately lowered voice immediately woke the two of them.

Shen Lingfeng quickly let go, his movements still neat and orderly.

He closed the back seat door and opened the passenger door again. Gu Ziyou swiftly got in.

The women who were speaking in the parking lot looked about twenty-something. Seeing their reaction, they immediately stopped whispering.

When they saw the Totoro in the rapidly departing car’s back seat, they were even more certain.

"Wow, a luxury car!" Both of them looked on with endless envy.

After leaving the parking lot, Gu Ziyou’s hands were still covering her face.

Her face was still red and warm.

It was a bit embarrassing to be caught in such a situation.

She couldn’t remember how she had forgotten it was a public place just now.

She glanced sideways, secretly looking at the man driving.

He cleared his throat, his gaze seriously focused on the windshield, and accelerated.

The previous incident seemed to have no impact on him, as if he had just let go of her because it was time, then got in the car to leave.

But Gu Ziyou still remembered the slight fluster in his actions when he let go of her, closing and opening the door.

Only from this distance could she see it, feel it; others wouldn’t easily notice. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

It turned out he wasn’t completely unshakable in any situation; being caught in public did make him a bit embarrassed.

He wasn’t as composed as he looked or as she had thought.

So, earlier, he was really focused, which is why he didn’t notice people approaching even though he was facing that direction.

"Gu Ziyou!" Shen Lingfeng couldn’t keep a straight face after her prolonged, sneaky glances.

That sneaky look was a bit too obvious.

"Here!" She responded quickly, so fast that he couldn’t come up with anything to say, "What’s up?"

Shen Lingfeng pressed his lips together; he had nothing to say, just sensed her gaze, making him unable to calm down.

"Look on your phone, decide which restaurant you want to go to tonight," he said lightly.

"Oh." She finally took out her phone.

The first thing she did wasn’t to check restaurants but to relay it to Mengmeng.

Mengmeng said that although Shen Lingfeng didn’t show any special reaction, it didn’t mean anything.

When they returned to Shen Lingfeng’s house, Gu Ziyou set up Totoro in the guest room.

Fortunately, the guest room’s bed was big enough, just right for it to fit.

"Are you sure you want to place it here?"

Shen Lingfeng came in holding a glass of milk and saw she had just finished setting it up.

The house hadn’t changed much, but a few new things made it feel especially lively.

He wasn’t sure if it was because of the changes in the house or because there was another person in it.

"Just leave it here, is that a problem?" Gu Ziyou accepted the milk he handed back, hoping he’d find it problematic.

"It’s nothing, get some rest early." Shen Lingfeng withdrew his gaze; sooner or later, he would have to get that eyesore out.

Gu Ziyou was worried he’d forget the goodnight kiss and immediately planted one on his chin, "Good ni..."

Before she finished the two words, her last word was silenced by a kiss.

It seemed just as her lips touched his, the kiss landed.

"Bang—"

The cup in her hand shook, spilling milk all over the two of them, and the cup wasn’t held steady, falling down.

"The cup, the cup..."

The tender kiss moved away from her lips but did not stop. The shattered cup and spilled milk didn’t seem to affect them at all.

Gu Ziyou suddenly became nervous, her hand pressing against his chest, unsure whether to stop.
