"You really have bad taste, Susie. After all, I don't think you can find anyone that is better than me in this world," Julian boasted.
Susan was taken aback by his ego. It took a long while for her to come around. Then, she made a vomiting gesture and said, "Can you stop being a narcissist, Julian? I'm going to meet one of my childhood friends. He was very cute when he was a kid, so I'm certain that he must look more handsome than you now.
Maybe I'll fall for him."
"Please do!" Julian chuckled.
Susan was infuriated. She charged forward and bit his shoulder. Then, she stared at him and hissed, "Don't you love me anymore, Julian Shaw?"
Julian found Susan's grudgeful look a little cute. He forced down the urge to laugh at her and said, "Alright, I've got to go now, Susie. Remember to take care of yourself."
"Alright, alright," Susan replied poutingly.
Julian then turned around and left without saying anything.
"Ahh!” Susan threw herself on the bed and shouted, tossing and turning about on the bed exasperatedly.
'He is such a d*ck! Does he believe in me too much, or i s he too confident about his own charm? He probably thinks that my childhood friend is not as goodlooking as him.’
When Susan thought about the pretty little boy, she was looked even more forward to the meeting. 1
'Just you wait, Julian Shaw! I'll take a picture with my friend and show it to you to prove that I'm not wrong! Hmph!’
After thinking that, Susan could not help herself as she hummed a song out of pleasure while packing her stuff.
It took two hours to travel from Ningcheng City to Lin County. Susan planned to go there and back on the same day, and therefore she did not bring too much stuff with her.
Lin County. Midnight. At the secret base.
Standing under a tree, Julian could not help but smile.
He wondered how Susan would react when she found out that the pretty little boy she had been talking about was actually him. With that thought in mind, he continued to take flower bouquets out from the trunk o f his car and began decorating the scene.
He came here last night in advance because he wanted to decorate the venue. He wanted to make their meeting an unforgettable one.
The amount of work was huge, but Julian planned to finish it all by himself. He did not want anybody to interfere and spoil the best memory between him and Susan.
The night was getting darker, and Julian was still working like a busy bee.
The next day, just when Susan was about to depart to Lin County, her phone rang.
She took out her phone and answered the call, "What's the matter, Isa?"
"Susie," Isa said with a soft voice, "I remember today is the day you're going to meet the little boy, right? You are going back to Lin County, right?"
"Yeah," Susan replied as she put on her shoes.
"Well, it's been a long time since I last went back to our hometown, so I'd like to see what it looks like now. Could you bring me along?" Isabelle asked.
"Well..." Susan hesitated.
"What's wrong, Susie?” Isabelle queried, "I just want to have a look at our hometown. It's not like I'm going to stop you from meeting your little boy."
"That’s not what I meant..." Susan scratched her head," Forget about it. I'm heading out now. Where are you? I'll come and fetch you." 2
Truth be told, she did not want anybody to disturb her trip. However, since Isabelle called her, she felt a little embarrassed to reject her.
