The girl glanced at the floral apron she was wearing and waved her hand impatiently.

Qi Yue returned to the kitchen, placing the freshly made bear cookies and kitty cookies into the oven. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Originally, she had been so enthusiastic about making these things, but now, she suddenly felt like she was just indulging in wishful thinking. Tang Yan already had a girlfriend!

She reached out her hand, dejectedly propping her cheek with it.

But, it’s not a big deal; after all, she never thought she could be with him.

Thinking this, Qi Yue couldn’t help but start to laugh.

After a while, suddenly, she heard a conversation from outside.

Qi Yue was startled, it seemed like she heard Tang Yan’s voice. She quickly moved to the door, secretly pulling it open just a crack.

"Why are you here again? Lisha, I told you, we’re really not suitable for each other. Please don’t come looking for me anymore, okay?" Tang Yan stood in front of the sofa, looking at the girl in front of him, helplessly saying.

"Why!" Lisha said aggrievedly, "Tangtang, what is it about me that’s so bad that you dislike me so much? You don’t answer my calls, you don’t reply to my messages! Even if you don’t like me, you should give me a reason, right?"

"It’s not about something being wrong," Tang Yan said helplessly. "Liking someone doesn’t require a reason, and not liking someone doesn’t either..."

"I don’t care!" Lisha plopped down on the sofa. "I’m staying here today and not leaving. Remember how happy we were when we were in school together.

Do you remember? We painted together, ran together, and went to the cafeteria to eat together..."

Qi Yue’s eyes widened. What exactly was the relationship between this Lisha and Tang Yan? Could they be good friends, or was there something ambiguous going on?

"Lisha, don’t get it wrong, it wasn’t just the two of us; it was a lot of people painting, running together, okay?" It was just some classmates, yet it seemed so ambiguous.

Tang Yan was on the verge of breaking down too.

Upon hearing this, Qi Yue couldn’t help but cover her mouth with her hand.

However, because there was flour on her hand, suddenly, Qi Yue couldn’t hold back and sneezed.

Both people in the living room looked in her direction.

Lisha stood up and gave Qi Yue a glare, "Tangtang, even your family’s maid is starting to laugh at me!"

Tang Yan glanced at Qi Yue, and a few black lines appeared on his forehead.

Embarrassed, Qi Yue walked out and said, "I’m not laughing at you... I just..."

"Shut up! You’re just a servant, what gives you the right to speak here?!"

Qi Yue’s eyes widened.

Tang Yan’s face changed.

He looked at Qi Yue from head to toe. She was wearing a cute pink apron, her hair was tied up in a bun on top of her head, her slightly chubby face had flour on it, and she stood in the living room looking innocent.

Suddenly, Tang Yan’s lips curled into a smile. This girl right in front of him was just too cute.

Qi Yue, caught under Tang Yan’s gaze, thought she was too reckless, and awkwardly said, "You... you guys continue... I’ll go now..." With that, she prepared to make her escape.

"Wait a minute!" Tang Yan suddenly called out to her.

Qi Yue froze.

Footsteps sounded behind her, and the boy walked closer, a faint scent of green tea wafting through the air.

Confused, Qi Yue turned around to see the handsome face in front of her. The man smiled at her, reached out, and took her hand.

The man’s warm, large hand grasped Qi Yue’s small flour-covered hand, and staring at the handsome face in front of her, Qi Yue felt like her heart stopped for a moment.
