Chen Ergou said, swallowing his pride, and only then did the girl carefully let go of his hand. Before Chen Ergou could even turn his head, the girl, once she'd released him, took a big stride and stopped right in front of him.
"Master Gou, I like you!"
"Huh?"
When Chen Ergou saw the girl's eyes darting left and right, he froze on the spot.
Seeing the stunned look on Chen Ergou's face, the girl got a little embarrassed. After all, for a girl to主动 say something like that, she'd already mustered a huge amount of courage. Whether Chen Ergou agreed or not, just being able to say those words already meant a lot.
She fidgeted awkwardly for a moment, then continued.
"Master Gou, I'm serious. I really, really like you!"
"Huh? They're not a couple?"
"My god, there's actually a girl this bold. How come I never run into any?"
"Why isn't the one being confessed to me!"
