NovelApp"I... I just suddenly realized I can't remember what you look like, so I wanted to remember your face." Irene lowered her head and sheepishly cup with an excuse.
"You talk toevery day, and yet, you don't even remember what I look like?" "Mr. Lucas, I lied. I know what you look like. It's just that I have just realized how handsyou are," said Irene honestly, meeting his eyes.

"The past few days your nose was bruised and swollen, so I didn't realize it then," Irene said and tried to change the topic, "Did you not use the medication I bought for you? Why don't I return it to the pharmacy?" "Can you take back the things that you've given others?" Lucas had gleaned snew insights when it cto Irene. "You dare?" Irene's face turned hot. "I'll give you the money back. I don't want your money." "Am I short of cash? What is going on in that head of yours?" said Lucas. Wanting her to calm down, he said, "Go tidy up my room. Don't touch my personal belongings." "Oh, okay." That evening, after much enthusiastic persuading by Irene, Lucas finally stepped out of the South Block.
Lucas was wearing the down jacket that Irene had bought for him. After putting on the down jacket, he did not feel that cold anymore.
"After we leave this neighborhood, we can take public transport to the city," Irene said. She took two coins out of the bag and handed one to Lucas.
"What are we eating?" Lucas was a little hungry.
"What do you feel like eating?" Irene asked.

"Mr. Lucas, you're a nice person. You know I still need to repay my debts, so you don't wantto spend too much." Lucas furrowed his brows. "Can you not voice out other people's thoughts? Don't you feel awkward?" Irene shook her head. "No, not awkward at all because you're really nice." Lucas pursed his lips. He had no words. Only she thought that he was a nice person.
"I'm not that patient with other people." Maybe because it was dark tonight, so Lucas expressed what was on his mind. "Why?" asked Irene before venturing her guess, "Is it because I'm more pitiful?" "Not only are you pitiful, but you're also tough and tenacious.hedecided that he would give her an example. "Just like my dog. When I took him back, he was almost dead." Irene was speechless.
"I'm not calling you a dog." Irene said, "I did not think you did." Lucas placed his hands in his pockets. After walking a few steps, he changed the topic, "Will there still be a bus at this hour?" "There will be. The last bus is at nine twenty. It's still early!" After exiting the neighborhood, they continued chatting and tpassed by extremely quickly.
"Do you have friends?" asked Lucas as they walked to the bus stop.
"No." Irene asked in response, "Mr. Lucas, you don't have friends as well, right? I have never seen you talk on the phone or chat with anyone else." "Aren't you the same? How dare you laugh at me." "Mr. Lucas, I'm not laughing at you. I only think that since you're so handsome, there are surely many people who would be willing to be your friend. You're the one who doesn't want to play with others, right?" Irene said. "I'm different. No one wants to play with me." e' "I don't need friends," Lucas said coldly. "You don't need friends either. All you need is to study well. If you can get into Turlington University, I'll give you a gift." "Mr. Lucas, only friends will give each other gifts. Are you treatingas a friend?" Irene asked carefully.
Lucas was speechless.
Irene blinked. "Mr. Lucas, you're blushing."
