663 Every Beginning Needs Plenty of Courage (1/2)

Seconds passed by in silence that even the chauffeur began to get anxious. He thought to himself as he wished that his dear young madam would open her mouth. Third Young Master was really too sweet and thoughtful.

Finally, Xuxu opened her mouth and popped the wedge of orange into her mouth.

She spun her head away and looked out of the window. A faint smile gradually appeared and split into a wide smile.

Even though Yan Rusheng couldn't see that she was secretly smiling, just the mere fact that she accepted the food from him had him overjoyed.

He felt emboldened and inched closer to Xuxu. He passed her another piece. ”Is it nice?”

Xuxu continued eating without responding.

The chauffeur carefully slowed down to give his master more time to enjoy this blissful moment.

…

After they exited the elevator, Xuxu walked ahead as usual. She took out her keys and was about to open her door.

Yan Rusheng suddenly called out to her. ”Xuxu…”

She stopped, spun around, and cast him a doubtful look.

Yan Rusheng had his hands stuffed in his pockets. He was breaking out in a cold sweat as he struggled to muster his courage, but in the end, he gave up.

His mouth was curled upwards as he softly said, ”Good night.”

Xuxu responded with a vague 'oh' and entered her apartment.

It stunned Yan Rusheng. Huh?

She didn't ignore him and even responded? Upon realizing it, Young Master Yan he felt overwhelmed.

He took out his keys to open the door. After changing into his slippers, he took a wineglass from the kitchen and walked to the dining table. He bent and opened a cupboard to retrieve a bottle of wine.

It was the same bottle they had during their candle-lit dinner before.

He poured a glass, and his long fingers clasped the wineglass. He took a sip and licked his lips. For him, the wine tasted even sweeter than before.

As he drank the wine, he walked towards the couch and turned on the music. He turned the volume down, and soft music began playing.
