You Are The Apple of My Eyes

Chapter 652 I Want To Bring A Date

Wynn slapped a hand over his face.

'Why can't I just shut up? Why did I have to mention the novel dishes? I don't want to eat anything gross.'

Michelle squinted at him but Wynn raised his hands in mock surrender and declared, "Don't look at me. I'm busy. Leon asked me to do something for him. You can ask him if you don't believe me."

He had no qualms about making Leon his scapegoat. After all, Michelle was partial to the man.

As expected, Michelle gave up on the idea and reluctantly agreed, "Okay."

Wynn sighed in relief. Throughout the breakfast, he felt anxious. Michelle called him again, and his heart skipped a beat.

Those horrible dishes Michelle made had traumatized Wynn.

Leon couldn't help but chuckle when he noticed how stiff Wynn was. With a gentle shake of his head, he said, "Wynn, she just wanted you to pass her phone. It's right next to you."

"What?" Finally coming to his senses, Wynn followed Leon's line of sight and found Michelle's phone by his elbow.

Someone was trying to call the girl but the mobile was on silent mode.

The phone was covered with a pink screen protector of Maruko, and there was a pink rabbit pendant hanging at the lower corner of the phone.

Wynn grabbed the phone and put it in Michelle's hand. "You can just tell me what you want."

"I was going to. But when I was just about to ask you, it was like your soul left your body," Michelle replied, looking up at him innocently. 'So it's my fault?'

Wynn grumbled internally. 'If I hadn't been so bothered by your cooking, maybe I wouldn't have jumped out of my skin when I heard you call me!'

"Hello, Lydia." It was Lydia on the other end of the WeChat call. Michelle put her phone on loudspeaker out of habit before setting it close to her atop the table.

"Michelle, I'm in the dormitory. There are two things that we have to discuss with you. Are you busy?" Lydia asked, her voice sounding a bit distorted on speakerphone.

"No, I'm not busy. What's up? Is this about what we're going to do for fun after the final exam?"

"That's just one of the things we want to talk to you about. We'll get back to it later. Rainy and Debra have something urgent to tell you."

Before Lydia could finish her sentence, Rainy exclaimed, "Michelle, Michelle! I'm telling you, girl, you're about to get very lucky in love!"

"Yes, love is on the horizon for you. I have a feeling that you're going to fall in love in the near future," Debra added gleefully, like a mother who was excited to find a husband for her daughter. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Rainy agreed with much enthusiasm, "Yes, that's right!"

Michelle, however, was confused by their exhilaration. "What happened?"

Rainy explained, "Isn't the photo of you with Leon a hot topic right now? After you clarified that you treat him as your brother, many people started asking for your phone number and then they came to us—your dear roommates. Are you willing to give them your WeChat number or not?"

"Michelle, think it over. You might get a boyfriend out of this!" Debra was excited. "And they offered to give us red packets."

Rainy interjected, "But don't worry because we turned them down. We also haven't responded to any queries as we have to ask for your opinion first."

"That's right!" Debra agreed.

Having said what they wanted to say, Michelle's roommates finally came down from the high of their excitement. They held their breaths as they waited for Michelle to respond.

The two other people at the table also understood what was going on. Wynn's gut reaction was to voice out his objection. He wanted Michelle to get together with Leon, not to let her fall in love with another man.

So he shook his head at Michelle.

Michelle raised her gaze from her phone to look at Leon. In the back of her mind, she remembered what he had told her. She wasn't supposed to befriend strangers so easily.

"I want to ask Leon for his opinion," Michelle replied to her roommates. She then addressed the person sitting opposite her, "Leon."

She spoke so sweetly that Leon felt like indulging her. 'Michelle is so lovely!'

"You can accept the red packets but only on three conditions," he declared.

"Please go ahead!" Rainy and Debra encouraged in unison.

Aware that Michelle was watching him, Leon smiled warmly and slipped a cut of fish into her bowl. "You should eat more," he told her softly. Then he raised his voice and declared, "First, don't make

promises with anybody. Second, you can't give them Michelle's phone number, only her WeChat number. And for my final condition, half of the red packets should go to Michelle."

"Got it!" Rainy and Debra readily agreed.

Lydia was the calmest of the three. "Now, it's my turn to ask you about the other thing. I wanted to talk to you when you return to the dorm. But it's exam week. We don't have any classes and I assume you're living off-campus with Leon. Anyway, we come up with two plans. Tell me which one you prefer.

We decided to go two days after the last test. That's July 2. The first plan is to hike up a mountain to watch the sunrise and then go to a seafood buffet for lunch. Then we'll take a break in the afternoon before singing our hearts out at a KTV in the evening. The second plan is to meet up at a seafood buffet at noon before going to the amusement park you and Nina have previously been to. They want to check out the haunted house and then sing at the KTV until ten o'clock in the evening."

"I like the second plan better," Michelle answered without any hesitation. She was never interested in the first plan because it was impossible for her to wake up early in the morning.

Leon pursed his lips, suppressing a grin that threatened to break free. He had expected as much from Michelle.

One of her roommates also guessed the same. Rainy piped up, "See? I told you she'd pick the second plan. There's no way Michelle would wake up early just to see the sunrise."

Debra sighed, "It seems only Leon can make her get up early."

Michelle laughed. "You're just jealous because I have a brother and you don't."

"Yes, I don't have a brother but I have a boyfriend," Rainy said. "By the way, can I bring my boyfriend with me?"

Debra said firmly, "No!"

"Why not?" Rainy seemed a little frustrated. "Why can't I take a date with me? Don't you want someone to help us carry stuff?"

"You're the only one in the dormitory who's dating someone." Lydia was snide as she spoke. "If you bring a date with you, I guess we should give up on the idea of eating out then."

'Spare us your public displays of affections. It makes us lose our appetites.'

"Saving money is a good thing, right?" Rainy taunted with an annoying smile.

Debra snapped, "You're unbelievable. I object! It's three against one—majority says no bringing dates."

"You can't speak for other people," Rainy protested. "Michelle, are you or are you not in favor of bringing dates to our outing?"

"I'm with Rainy on this, girls. I want to bring a date with me," Michelle answered apologetically but her body was practically vibrating in excitement.

She looked at Leon with stars in her eyes.
