Cheng Zhu's sudden remark almost made Lin Lu's brain shrink.
She was already immersed in her huffy emotions, having eaten two fewer spoonfuls of black rice porridge for breakfast.
Just yesterday, while writing in her diary, she drew a big pig's head on the page.
Today, she was determined to show Cheng Zhu her silent treatment; saying "good morning" only because they had a long-standing routine of greeting each other every day.
The girl didn't want to break that habit. She even kept track of the day they first started saying good morning to each other, with the streak visible in an app.
Each time the number of days increased, she felt a bit of sweetness in her heart.
However, when Lin Lu saw Cheng Zhu and Little Youzi at Star City, her petty anger started to deflate.
"Let it go, he's just like that—so annoying, so obnoxious, never taking initiative."
"Maybe it's related to his last relationship?" She was making excuses for Cheng Zhu in her own mind.
