Ning Qing didn’t know what to say. Kong Yang said that he wasn’t asking for anything so she would sound unreasonable and brutal if she were to say anything else.

Maybe what Kong Yang needed most was time.

“Alright, Kong Yang. Thank you, I want to return to school. Bye bye.”

Kong Yang didn’t dare to say that he would send her back to her school as she was afraid that it would make her feel repulsed. From what he thought, Ning Qing was a decisive girl and she definitely didn’t like him pestering her.

He pa.s.sed the umbrella to Ning Qing, “It’s raining heavily, take the umbrella with you.”

“It’s okay. My school is very close. You need the umbrella more. I shall go.” Ning Qing started running before Kong Yang could respond.

…

Ning Qing walked on the street. There were many shops along the way so she walked along the eaves to avoid the rain.

She couldn’t accept Kong Yang’s offer and give him hope. Although he said that he’d be okay to just stay by her side. But from her point of view, accepting a kind offer without repaying was taking advantage.

She couldn’t take advantage of Kong Yang.

As she walked, the phone in her bag rang. She took out and saw that it was a strange number calling.

“Hi, h.e.l.lo…” Ning Qing answered the phone.

“Hi, h.e.l.lo. Are you Miss Ning? I heard that my watch was with you. If you’re free now, I’ll come and get it.” The man’s voice was low and soothing, a very magnetic voice.

Ning Qing stunned. She grieved in sorrow in her head.

“That… It’s a little inconvenient. The watch is… It’s in my school but I’m outside,” Ning Qing found an excuse.

“You’re outside? Which street?”

Ning Qing thought he didn’t believe her so without much thought she looked at the street sign before her and read the road name, “I’m on San Bao Street. I’ll call you when I’m free some other day.”

No one answered on the other end of the line. He was quiet for about two minutes and Ning Qing felt insecure. She broke his watch after all and she felt really guilty.
