Chapter 236
If he’s the one, why can’t I be braver?
“Eugene, how about we… give it a try?”
Hearing that, he still couldn’t make sense of the situation. “Huh?”
Olivia took a deep breath. Considering the fact that he was drunk, she kindly repeated her words again. “What I just
said was—if you don’t mind that I have North, let’s give it a try!”
He was rooted to his spot. Her words were so sudden and shocking that he couldn’t comprehend it for a moment,
causing him to have a blank expression on his face.
Is she saying that she agrees to date me?
He almost pounced toward her. As he was already drunk, his steps were a little unsteady, and he seemed to be
floating on air now.
Olivia was startled, and she quickly supported him. “Be careful.”
He grabbed her as he nervously asked, “Olivia, did you just agree to be with me?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe was amused and speechless. He looks so silly now.
“Come out. Let’s not wake the child up.”
Eugene replied and meekly followed her lead outside.
She pointed at the couch. “Sit there!”
He grinned widely—so widely that his mouth turned into an unbelievably wide arc. He was surprisingly obedient.
Sitting opposite him, she had an inexplicable strange feeling that she had just tamed a beast. “Just ask if you have
any questions.”
He stood up, attempting to approach her.
“Sit over there!” she ordered.
He thought about it for a while before sitting back on the couch. He then quietly chuckled, baffling her. “Why are
you laughing?”
He smiled and answered, “I drank seven or eight bottles of beer and lost over 100,000 tonight. I kept contemplating
my luck for losing in both romance and gamble. Only now I know that it turned out to be the best arrangement. The
loss in gamble results in my success in romance.”
Upon seeing his silly looks now, she found it amusing somehow. She took a deep breath and spoke, “I have a bad
temper, and I’m a little pretentious with an awkward character. I’m also used to keeping my feelings and thoughts
to myself. I just said that I agree to try things with you, so you shouldn’t think too much into it. You cannot force me,
but if you really do, I won’t play nice as well.”
He looked at her and smiled, but his smile made her hair stand on end.
She asked, “Why are you smiling?”
He chuckled, “I’m desperately hoping that you won’t play nice with me!”
She rolled her eyes at him. “Do you still want to listen?”
He instantly wiped the smile off his face. “Continue!”
“If we are not suitable for each other, I hope that we can break up nicely and try our best to not disturb and force
each other. Also, North is my bottom line. I hope that you won’t harm him even if you don’t like him. Of course, I
know that you treat him really well. Otherwise, there won’t be a beginning to our relationship today.”
He nodded and replied, “Yeah. Don’t you worry about this. Under what circumstances would you consider us
unsuitable for each other?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe gave it some thought before replying, “If we can't achieve an outcome of becoming better people or having
better lives despite being together. Regardless of whether it is me getting a boyfriend, or you getting a girlfriend,
both of us aim to lead better and happier lives, so it would be meaningless if we make each other unhappy.”
He nodded. “Alright.”
Olivia wasn’t used to Eugene suddenly becoming obedient, so she merely pursed her lips shyly.
“Also… when I said that you were being greedy today, I didn’t mean that you were overestimating yourself. I just
thought that we were progressing too fast. In less than three months, you have not only entered my life, but you
were even unsatisfied to just be my friend.”
He looked at her, feeling a little surprised. This was what she meant?
Seeing her shy little face and her fingers clenching tightly out of nervousness, he could tell that this was probably
her first time saying this sort of thing.
Although she knew that he was greedy, she still let him have his way.
Why is she so adorable?
He inexplicably felt a sudden heat that swept through his body. He stood up, took a few steps toward her, and
pulled her up from the couch.
