Chapter 278: Under the Rain

Evie let out a small laugh, and Ren's ears perked up. The giggles reminded him of the upcoming Christmas in three months.

"What's so funny?" he asked.

"Mm . . . It's just that . . . you're not so cold and unapproachable as I thought you were. The first time we met in the game, you were hiding your appearance, and there was an invisible air around you that pushed everyone away."

It was because he was with her. But Ren hid the real reason behind a chuckle. "You're the same as well."

Evie giggled. "I guess I didn't have the right to say something like that." Knowing that she was also the same. She was pushing others away from her because she didn't want the attachment. It would only be a hindrance in the future.

Though with Ren, Evie couldn't stop herself from getting close. Not that she was planning to in the first place. Something about him drew her in, and she knew there was no stopping it once it started.
