One Night Surprise

Chapter 521 She Said That I Am a Good Man

After a while, the door swung open again, and Mike came in with his hands behind his back.

By then, Lila had already given up the idea of being angry at him. She knew that she could never get through to his dense head, and he would never understand the deeper meaning behind people’s words.

“Quicky, eat your food. The soup is cold now.”

Lila buried her head as she took in a mouthful of noodles while picking out the beef from the bowl and putting it into another bowl. However, she was caught off guard by the touch of pink from the corner of her eyes. When she looked up, she saw Mike grinning at her with a balloon in his hand.

“What’s this?”

Mike began to tie the balloon to her bedside and rambled on about how he had rescued a little girl by the side of the road today. Finally, he stared at the pink color balloon and muttered to himself indifferently, “Her mother said that I was a good man. This is the second time anyone has ever said that to me.”

When Lila heard this, she froze.

At that time, she was naive. Now that she had gone through so many things, she did not have the courage to insist that he was a good person.

With an embarrassed smile, she said, “You’re just unattentive.”

“Do you think they’ll let me back if I perform well?”

After being asked that, she was silent.

She continued to use the chopsticks to stir her soup.

If there were a chance to turn back the fatal mistakes one made, this world would have been too cruel to those innocently dragged into the abyss by such errors.

While she was immersed in her thoughts, a gentle force ruffled her hair. The person who asked this was supposed to be comforted, yet, the person who listened could not extricate himself from a certain depressed mood for a moment.
