Chapter 1072 Twelve Hours

On her way home alone, Shi Qingsong inexplicably recalled the day her two younger brothers had a fight and parted on bad terms. Her mother had asked A-Ming why she insisted on having Shen Jinhuan, and why not someone else?

Ah Ming's answer at the time was that she was different from other girls.

Recalling these few encounters between the two, a smile unconsciously flashed across his eyes; she was indeed different from other girls.

Shi Qingsong went home to change her clothes, so Jin Huan naturally couldn't stay upstairs in the dust, nor could she let herself suffer in the cold downstairs. So she searched for a milk tea shop with good ratings on her phone and took a taxi there to sit down.

After the milk tea arrived, she suddenly realized that she didn't have Shi Qingsong's contact information and hadn't told him where to meet!

Just as he was about to call Yuan Dahai and ask him to find out Shi Qingsong's private number, an unknown number without a name popped up on the screen, originating from Lin'an.

After she pressed the answer button, Shi Qingsong's voice came from the other end.

Jin Huan wasn't surprised that he had his own contact information. For a man at the top of the food chain, getting someone's contact information wasn't difficult.

Before the other person could speak, she took the initiative to add the man as a friend and then sent him her real-time address.

When Shi Qingsong arrived at the milk tea shop, it was already fifteen minutes later.

Which one would you like to drink?

She handed over her phone, and the screen prominently displayed the store's electronic ordering page.

Looking at the little girl's smiling face, he wisely refrained from mentioning that she had abandoned him.

After all that effort, I wasn't really excited.

He politely selected an option and then handed her the phone back.

After placing the order, Jin Huan put down her phone and then turned her attention to Shi Qingsong.

It's highly unlikely that Shen Jinhuan, who is usually self-centered, would find something inappropriate.

Perhaps because she was in a good mood today, she took the initiative to be considerate of the other person's feelings and said, "Don't be unhappy, I won't forget you next time."

Shi Qingsong was taken aback, a rare occurrence for him.

But in that instant when their eyes met, he was undeniably pleased by the girl's clumsy and awkward attempts at comforting him.

Perhaps it was her softened tone.

Or perhaps it was the "next time" in her words. "Okay."

The milk tea arrived very quickly.

He rarely drinks things like this. It's sweet and cool on the palate, a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling that suddenly makes him think, "It tastes pretty good, doesn't it?"

Aren't you going home for Chinese New Year?

Shi Qingsong had investigated the girl's background. She was from Haicheng, 19 years old, orphaned, and studying at Imperial University with her uncle, Yuan Dahai. She was Haicheng's top liberal arts student this year…

The information appears to be very detailed, but some key details are extremely vague.

His initial motivation for investigating Shen Jinhuan stemmed from his two younger brothers' excessive concern.

Therefore, his focus will be on the girl's emotional experiences.

However, there was no record for this item. If it were any other girl, he would probably subconsciously assume that she had never been in a relationship, but for Shen Jinhuan, his intuition told him that someone had tampered with her information.

However, her two younger brothers clearly did not think so.

Out of personal motives, he did not deliberately remind him.

As a result, their relationship with her deteriorated further.

As his thoughts drifted back, he heard her lazily say, "I'm not going back."

Jin Huan scooped a spoonful of cake from the plate and suddenly looked at him: "Are you spending the New Year alone?"

Shi Qingsong paused for a moment.

His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, clearly visible to the naked eye. He certainly wouldn't be spending the New Year alone; the Shi family was a large clan, and they were busy not only on New Year's Day but also throughout the first month of the lunar calendar.

But the moment she looked over, he inexplicably blurted out, "Alone." Then he saw the girl's lips curl into a happy smile: "Then let's spend time together?"
