Chapter 801: Sincere (1)
“No…”Leng Nuan’s voice was still emotionless. She answered Lu Benlai with a distant expression. After a while, she explained, “I live in the 601 in the East District. This is the West District.”
Lu benlai responded with an “OH”and then an “OH”as if he suddenly realized something. In the end, he seemed to not know what to say, he chuckled and said, “Anyway, it’s still the same sentence from before. It’s good that you’re okay…”
Leng Nuan did not say anything else.
Lu Benlai, who had always been talkative, was probably shocked. Seeing that she did not say anything, he did not speak anymore. Unlike usual, she ignored him, and he also had endless topics to talk about.
The two of them were silent, and the firemen behind them were busy directing them.!!
The fire was quickly put out. As there were no casualties, the people surrounding them gradually dispersed.
The suburbs were quiet to begin with, and now it was even quieter.
Leng Nuan, who was staring at Lu Benlai, blinked her eyes and took the lead to break the silent atmosphere between the two of them. “Your…”
She only said two words before she raised her hand and pointed at her hair.
Lu Benlai did not understand what Leng Nuan meant at first. He was stunned for a moment before he reached out to wipe his head. He could feel the burning sensation on his head. Only then did he realize that she was referring to the fact that his hair had burned a lot after he had just rushed into the fire..
He had always valued hairstyles the most, he scratched his head carelessly. “Oh, about that… I’ve been wanting to change my hairstyle recently and shave my head, but I haven’t made up my mind yet. Now, it saves me the trouble. Tomorrow, I can directly shave off this 3,000 thread of worry at the hot spring barber shop…”
Lu Benlai had always been so naughty when he spoke.
In the past, Leng Nuan had been teased by Lu Benlai many times, but this time, she did not laugh out loud. She looked at his wet clothes and at his shivering body in the early winter night, he lowered his eyelids slightly. “It’s getting late. I have to go back and rest.”
“Oh, okay.”After Lu Benlai said that, he used a negotiating tone and asked, “Shall I send you off?”
Lu Benlai had said this to Leng Nuan many times, but every time, Leng Nuan would either reject him coldly or politely. This time, Lu Benlai’s words entered Leng Nuan’s ears. Due to her long-standing habit.., subconsciously, she wanted to open her mouth and say, “No, thank you.”But when the words were on the tip of her tongue, she did not say it. In the end, she simply turned around without saying anything and walked towards her own place.
Seeing that she did not reject him, Lu Benlai grinned and followed her.
“It’s really cold today.”
“Oh right, you’ve been reading in the car this afternoon. What are you reading?”
“Have you never liked to talk? Girls are so young. It’s better to be lively…”
Along the way, Lu Benlai did not stop chattering. It was only when they were about to reach Leng Nuan’s room that she turned around to look at him.
Lu Benlai immediately tightened his lips and did not make a sound.
When she reached the door of her room, Leng Nuan stopped. “I’m here.”
“Then hurry up and go in. Rest early. Good night.”Lu Benlai, who was in a mess, stood under a dim street lamp and waved at Leng Nuan with a smile.
Leng Nuan nodded slightly and did not say anything else. She stared at Lu Benlai and hesitated for a moment. She did not say the words “You’ll go take a hot bath”in the end. Then, she turned around, swiped her room card and entered the room, then, without saying a word to Lu Benlai, she closed the door.
