"..."
There was silence once again.
Sinai slowly raised her head, looking at his face so close at hand, feeling as if she had lost her voice.
She really hadn’t imagined such a scene would unfold.
She wasn’t someone who liked to add notes to others’ names.
Norton was the only one.
If he saw that nobody else, including Ying Zijin and Su Wen, had notes, would he realize her feelings for him?
"Alright." Sure enough, Norton spoke again, his voice calm, "Just scold me alone."
It took a full thirty seconds before Sinai responded, "It’s a love nickname for you."
Norton lifted his eyes and slowly repeated, "Love, nickname?"
"We young people of the new generation, you know, always follow the saying, ’Hitting means kissing, scolding means loving.’" Sinai lied with a straight face, "I’ve only added a note for you, which means I love you the most."
She said it so convincingly she believed it herself.
Norton’s eyes narrowed further, though his focus was elsewhere: "You young people of the new generation?"
Sinai had already relaxed, "I’m only in my twenties, how am I not a young person of the new generation?"
"Another way to say I’m old." Norton smiled, "And shameless. Very well."
Sinai: "..."
This person, how can he be so petty and calculative?
Back when he often lifted her up with one hand, she hadn’t said anything.
"It seems in the future, I should scold you and hit you more." Norton slowly put the phone back into her hand, "That way, I can show my kindness and love to you, and also express—"
"That this Old Shameless is aligning with you young people of the new generation."
Sinai: "..."
She didn’t want to talk to him and, putting her phone away, went upstairs hugging her pillow. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞
"Hey." Behind her, Norton raised his chin and asked, "What do you want to eat tomorrow morning?"
Sinai ignored him.
She realized that she was too soft on him, which was why she got bullied by him time and again.
But he was indeed very good to her.
So in the process, her feelings for him didn’t fade over time; instead, they grew deeper.
Sinai had always been rational; any relationship without a future would be pre-emptively eliminated by her.
She needed to think of a way.
With a "bang," Sinai closed the door without leaving a gap.
"..."
Norton lowered his lashes, his lips tugging slightly, his expression cold.
