"When will this ever end?"
Lin Jin, with a look of despair on her face, clung onto Chen Hao's arm, leaning half of her body onto his. She lowered her head, sighing deeply.
"What's wrong?" Chen Hao was enjoying himself greatly. Even though Lin Jin was dressed heavily, he could still feel her soft body against his. Their bodies were almost glued together, and with a slight bow of his head, he could catch a faint whiff of her fragrance. "We're almost there."
Lin Jin lifted her head. Her despairing face instantly morphed into a smiling one when she looked up, fully embodying the image of a young girl. She leaned again onto Chen Hao, "What do you want to eat? It's my treat."
"No need. I'll pay. Aren't you short on money?" Chen Hao was thoroughly enjoying the moment. Even though he knew Lin Jin was actually a trap, he was still cute after all!
Ever since he had a three-month online romance with Lin Jin in high school, he hadn't had such intimate contact with any girl. Despite his good looks and numerous girls confessing their feelings to him, he had never accepted any of them. All simply because he still held onto the memory of his online sweetheart from his second year of high school.
Seeing his online sweetheart in person only to find out she was a man, Chen Hao had almost given up on any feelings for Lin Jin. But today, Lin Jin seemed to have taken leave of his senses and transformed into a soft-hearted girl, trying to flirt with him?
Even though something was definitely off about Lin Jin, Chen Hao chose to temporarily treat her as a girl-like figure.
To the right of the large doors on the second floor of the cafeteria was the Western restaurant Lin Jin had mentioned. It was probably the fanciest establishment in the whole school. Although not luxurious, its decor was not far off from a regular Western restaurant.
The Western restaurant was small, with only four tables for four and a private booth for two behind a screen, as mentioned by Lin Jin.
This booth was more of a partitioned area with just a screen, but it was a favorite spot for many couples in the school.
Upon entering the restaurant, Lin Jin still clung onto Chen Hao. Even though she was dressed in men's clothes, the curious looks from other students had virtually disappeared since they left the men's dormitory, leaving only envious glances from single guys.
"What do you want to eat?" Chen Hao asked as he approached the counter and glanced at the pretty waitress, then turned to Lin Jin beside him.
"Anything is fine." Lin Jin looked up, her body stiffening.
Holy sh*t, isn't this waitress from the previous task target? That senior? Lin Ruiqiu, right?
Ruiqiu looked at the two men in front of her with a smile, her mind in a daze as if trampled by a herd of alpacas.
The shorter one, who looked a bit effeminate, wasn't he the junior who had asked her for her phone number before? They hadn't seen each other for long, and he already seemed more beautiful than her, and he even hooked up with a man?
Chen Hao felt Lin Jin's hand, which was gripping his arm, trembling. He glanced at her in surprise but didn't think too much of it, assuming she was just nervous. He casually ordered some snacks and two colas, then led the rigid Lin Jin to the booth behind the screen.
"Alright, can you now tell me what you want to do?" Chen Hao sat opposite Lin Jin, propped his chin on his hands resting on the table, and looked at Lin Jin with an interested smile.
Lin Jin always smiled beautifully when facing Chen Hao, and now she was still in her usual charming and cheeky demeanor, staring at Chen Hao. Although her mind was still thinking about the senior girl, she had to try her best to forget it to complete the task.
"How about we talk after eating?" Lin Jin was very nervous, her hands under the table where Chen Hao couldn't see were shaking uncontrollably, but she had to keep smiling, fearing that Chen Hao would notice something was off.
"Sure."
Chen Hao really wanted to ask Lin Jin if she had been shocked by something today, but seeing that face, he never asked, fearing that the truth would shatter his fragile heart.
Lin Jin kept sighing in her heart. The little girl's demeanor she had previously shown was just the warm-up. Now the real drama of the day begins.
She took out her phone and glanced at Chen Hao's affection level for her. It was only 60, which is probably equivalent to not quite being a couple.
According to black cat's explanation, an affection level of 70 is equivalent to a couple, and Chen Hao's previous affection level for her was over 70. But after he found out she was male, it instantly dropped to the 50s.
Perhaps she should use some means to convince Chen Hao that she is a woman?
But she had already told him before that she was male. If she suddenly changes her story now, would anyone believe it? Even if they did, wouldn't they think they were being played and lower their affection level?
Lin Jin frowned in distress. She was considering whether she should confess her feelings to Chen Hao today.
Would that be too hasty? Although time-wise, the task should end at noon tomorrow, but she could also ask Chen Hao out tomorrow morning, couldn't she?
Ruiqiu served the meal Chen Hao ordered on the table. She sneakily glanced at Lin Jin, who was in distress, and then turned around and went back to the counter.
Chen Hao only ordered some small dishes, like popcorn chicken, chicken skewers, and such. Each dish costs over ten yuan, so he spent about fifty yuan.
Lin Jin was a bit guilty and didn't start eating directly. Her hands were hidden under the table, gripping each other tightly. She nervously stole glances at Chen Hao and didn't even dare to raise her head.
If Chen Hao truly accepts my confession, wouldn't that be deception? Deceiving someone isn't so bad, but getting an annoying suitor for a task seems a bad deal.
But thinking about the punishment for the task, Lin Jin immediately reaffirmed her determination to fool someone.
"Why aren't you eating?" Chen Hao was still clueless about why Lin Jin asked him out. He looked at Lin Jin's delicate face. Although he knew Lin Jin was a man, that face, even with short hair, was just too much like a girl's. "Here, have some Coke."
He put a cup of Coke in front of Lin Jin and pushed two plates of snacks over. "Now, can you tell me what you want to do? Just say it directly, don't hide it. If I can help, I'll do my best."
"Well..." Lin Jin lowered her head and sighed heavily.
It seems she has to confess! What if Chen Hao doesn't get up until the afternoon tomorrow? What about my task? Maybe confessing now and then asking him out as a couple to deepen our relationship tomorrow morning isn't a bad idea?
Oh my, my integrity...
"Can I be your girlfriend?"
She raised her head determinedly, stood up, and with those watery eyes, she gazed at Chen Hao. She batted her eyelashes at him and pursed her red lips tightly. Her hands tightly gripped the corners of the table, and in her eyes looking at Chen Hao, there was a strong anticipation.
"Huh?"
"When will this ever end?"
Lin Jin, with a look of despair on her face, clung onto Chen Hao's arm, leaning half of her body onto his. She lowered her head, sighing deeply.
"What's wrong?" Chen Hao was enjoying himself greatly. Even though Lin Jin was dressed heavily, he could still feel her soft body against his. Their bodies were almost glued together, and with a slight bow of his head, he could catch a faint whiff of her fragrance. "We're almost there."
