7.2 - The Seventh Flavor Part 2

Translator: tarararawr

On both sides of his hand……

It was her garbage bags……

Xian Bei’s small face turned red again.

And at this moment, the man in front suddenly turned around and slightly raised his chin.

He was on the bottom and she was on top. She was caught off guard and directly looked into his eyes.

No, it should be that he……

Accidentally caught her peeping and saw through her embarrassment?!

Oh no. Oh no. Oh no. Oh no……

Xian Bei instantly looked away. Her heart was frantically beating and her back was overflowing with sweat.

Chen Zhuo’s head turned back and he was trying to not show too many expressions, so he had a look of indifference.

As for Xian Bei, she looked at her nose and followed nervously.

Arriving at the entrance of the first floor passageway, the man suddenly turned around and asked, “Did our eyes meet for the second time just now?”

He was smiling, but sounded very sincere. He wanted to be serious and respectful.

Xian Bei’s heart was beating fiercely and she was completely dazed for two seconds. Then she heard him calmly add a sentence.

A sentence that could turn her red from head to toe in one second.

“We’re downstairs, so look at the road. Don’t look at me.”

——

For the next three days, it was Chen Zhuo who came to deliver the milk tea.

He would always say a few words to her, even if he could never get a real verbal response.

The man was surprisingly patient and they would occasionally exchange text messages in the evening, as if they really did become good friends.

For the first time in her life, Xian Bei met this kind of person——a person who always got along with her and never showed a tired attitude.

——

Thursday at night.

Xian Bei sat down in front of the computer. She was holding the stylus pen and skillfully drawing on the pad.

On the white screen in front of her, the lines of a human shape jumping to the air was gradually becoming defined.

The more she drew, the more she became bored. With her left hand supporting her cheek,

Xian Bei put down the pen and picked up her cell phone on the side. She pressed on one of the messages.

It was a message from her landlord. The short message said that there would be guests coming to see the apartment tomorrow. He asked her to tidy up the place.

The move was imminent. However, Xian Bei had not made any progress in finding a new place to live.

Before, she was able to smoothly rent a single room apartment downtown because Yuan Yuan helped her take care of it. She was very grateful for this.

But in her current economic state, she could no longer afford the high monthly rent.

Xian Bei checked her silver bank card balance and immediately let out a long sigh.

I will probably have to move to the remote suburbs.

The place will certainly be far away from milk tea paradise. _(:з」∠)_ 1 ……

I suppose it’ll difficult to see…..oh, Chen Zhuo……ah？

Her face was inexplicably hot. She only quietly said his name at the bottom of her heart, so why should she be embarrassed?

Could it be that this name was hot 2 ?

She thought about it. It really is hot……

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

After being annoyed for a long time, Xian Bei held the stylus pen again.

At this time, the cell phone on the side vibrated twice.

Xian Bei grabbed it and saw that the incoming message was from Chen Zhuo. She immediately sat upright, as if she was going to read scripts in class, and opened his message.

“I have something to do tomorrow. I can’t bring you the milk tea. Someone else will do it.”

Xian Bei’s eyebrows fell and she could not hide her disappointment……

But she still obediently did what was right and texted an “Okay.” back.

Everyone had their own life they were occupied with.

Be understanding. Be understanding. Xian Bei continuously consoled herself and broadened her heart.

Suddenly, she remembered that tomorrow was the last day her editor was willing to order milk tea for her.

The day after tomorrow, [Zhong Yi] might not receive an order from her again.

Moreover, she would move out next week. Wouldn’t it be the same as before where she unexpectedly disappeared and they never heard from her again?

So, should she say goodbye to Chen Zhuo in advance?

Xian Bei frowned as she pondered. She typed:

“I have two things I want to tell you. I am moving out soon. And I don’t think I can order milk tea anymore.”

Send?

Whoosh……it was sent.

The opposite side responded very quickly. “You’re leaving?”

Xian Bei mouth twitched. “Yeah……I have to say goodbye.”

Chen Zhuo: “Are you going back to heaven?”

Xian Bei did not understand the meaning of this sentence for a moment. “What?”

Chen Zhuo: “You say it as if where you are going will not have any signal.”

Xian Bei: “……No.”

“Will there really be no signal?”

“No.”

Chen Zhuo: “Then that’s not a problem.”

Xian Bei still did not understand. “Huh?”

Chen Zhuo didn’t answer directly and only said, “Do I want to say goodbye to you?”

Xian Bei’s heart tugged. “You don’t need to say it…….I only wanted to say it. I’ll be fine when I’m done saying it……”

Chen Zhuo: “Okay.”

Xian Bei’s nose tip soured. She couldn’t help but rub her left eye. “Then…….goodnight. Goodbye.”

The man over there still didn’t change the speed at which he responded to the previous text messages.

“Good bye.”

"

"

Xian Bei’s eyebrows scrunched up again.

Huh? Why was there an extra long space between the word “goodbye” that made it seem serious?
