Arriving for the First Time in Half-Angle City
Qiao Wei returned to the tent, her mind filled with images of Luo Chen kissing her. Amidst the chaos in her heart, a trace of joy emerged. A fleeting thought flashed through her mind—could she be falling for him? At this notion, Qiao Wei shyly pulled the blanket over her head, and without realizing it, drifted into sleep.
The next morning, Qiao Wei awoke early. As soon as she stepped out of the tent, she saw Luo Chen packing their things. From a distance, she gazed at his handsome profile, lost in thought for a moment.
“Don’t just stand there. Pack your things. We’re leaving today,” Luo Chen suddenly looked up at Qiao Wei, his expression calm, as if nothing had happened the day before.
“I... I understand,” Qiao Wei replied, lowering her head in embarrassment at the memory of yesterday, letting her bangs hide her slightly flushed cheeks. The two quietly packed their belongings, neither speaking a word.
On the road, Luo Chen carried Qiao Wei’s small travel bag for her. Both walked in silence, their minds weighed down with thoughts.
As Qiao Wei admired the scenery along the way, Luo Chen suddenly broke the silence. His voice was still enchantingly husky, but now tinged with gentle consideration: “Girl, ahead lies the city. If you need to buy anything, take a day or two to wander around. It’ll be good for you to rest as well.”
Hearing Luo Chen’s words, Qiao Wei looked at him in surprise. Luo Chen, feeling slightly awkward, gently pinched her cheek and said, “Did you hear me?”
Qiao Wei nodded, a childish smile blooming on her face. Walking side by side with Luo Chen, her heart felt sweet and light.
After a while, they reached the city. Luo Chen looked at the metropolis and said, “This is Half Angle City, the most prosperous place here.”
Qiao Wei gazed at the city with a hint of melancholy, recalling her once peaceful and happy life—her school, her mother waiting for her at home, her mischievous younger brother, the flowers she tended with care... She missed home. It had been nearly a month since she left; she wondered how her family was faring.
While Qiao Wei was lost in nostalgia, Luo Chen had already hailed a taxi. He tapped her gently on the head and said, “Get in, girl.”
Qiao Wei opened the car door and quietly took her seat. The driver chatted familiarly with Luo Chen, prompting Qiao Wei to ask softly, “Have you lived here before?”
A hint of pride flickered across Luo Chen’s alluring features. “Yes, I lived here for many years. Everyone here is a ‘friend’ of mine.”
Qiao Wei exclaimed in surprise, “Did you charm them?”
Luo Chen merely smiled, neither denying nor confirming, and turned to watch the scenery outside the window.
