Sophie stopped in her tracks, her small excitent at catching up to Sam vanishing instantly when she saw the unfamiliar yet strikingly attractive woman with mature charm and an exaggerated figure curiously sizing her up.
She montarily thought about pretending to be a passerby and leaving nonchalantly.
But this idea quickly dissipated. After all, she and Sam weren’t in any peculiar relationship; they were at most friends.
Why should she act as if she needed to leave inconspicuously?
She generally didn’t care about these things. Sophie’s philosophy was that other people’s speculations about her had nothing to do with her. Let them guess and imagine what kind of person she was.
Zoe, upon seeing Sam, was genuinely surprised, as if this boring sumr had regained its interest, and this empty city had finally found its soul. She even smiled naturally.
However, when she noticed a girl with such a distinct aura and beautiful appearance appearing behind Sam... her mood imdiately sank.
It was as if a sturdy ship had sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Another beautiful girl, and they were chasing each other... It’s full of the beauty of youth, instantly reminding Zoe of her own student days.
So, what was their relationship?
Did they like each other?
Was she pursuing Sam?
Did Sam like her?
Were they going to be together?
Did they already have a closer relationship than even she and Sam had?
In an instant, nurous thoughts flooded her mind, but Zoe’s expression remained calm, with a gentle smile, not revealing her inner thoughts at all, as had always been her habit.
"Sam, is this your friend? She’s really beautiful."
Zoe said with a smile.
Standing in the middle, Sam was practically sweating, though, to be fair, he had already started sweating due to the hot weather.
He wasn’t worried about Sophie; after all, most of their interactions consisted of bickering, like a childish ga of sulking, which seed interesting because of its immaturity.
But the key issue was with Zoe.
She was quite adept at imagining things, as seen last ti with Alice, almost losing control of her emotions. Who could handle that?
Although Sam hadn’t said anything, Zoe probably already had constructed a sweet love story between Sam and Sophie in her mind.
"Ah... She’s a classmate from school, lives nearby, just ran into her."
Sophie, looking at Sam’s unnatural smile, said calmly, "I have nothing to do with him. You guys talk; I’m leaving."
With that, she turned and walked away.
Sophie, wearing her sun hat, looked as graceful as a princess at that mont.
"Hey, I owe you a Coke!"
Sophie didn’t look back.
"Who cares about your Coke!"
She walked further away, long out of earshot of anything Sam might have said afterward, or perhaps Sam didn’t say anything at all.
Seemingly calm and relaxed as she walked past the street corner and returned to the apartnt building, Sophie looked up, her brow slightly furrowed.
"Who is that woman? She seems to have a complicated relationship with Sam..."
"No, what’s their relationship to ? It’s their business."
...
"You two seem to have a nice relationship, the way you bicker looks youthful and sweet."
Zoe smiled at Sam, her slightly profound and beautiful eyes hiding unknown emotions.
Sam chuckled.
"There’s nothing like that. We’re just in the sa club and happened to run into each other nearby and exchanged a few words..."
He felt the need to explain, letting Zoe’s imagination run wild wasn’t a good idea.
"Is that so? But a girl wouldn’t chase after soone for no reason, even if it’s just for fun."
There it was, the speculation had begun.
Sam could only say, "How could that be... She’s known for her cold deanor, hardly ever smiles or talks to anyone."
"But isn’t there a saying? Boys in school only tease the girls they’re interested in."
"Hehe... Well, maybe I’m just a bit boring, so whenever I see a pretty girl, I like to tease her a bit."
Zoe blinked.
"Is that so? Then Sam is quite the flirt."
It seed like a joke, or perhaps a probe.
Sam didn’t dodge the probe; he decided to use it as a chance to probe back.
"Ah, speaking of which, my dream is to be a harem king."
"So, that’s Sam’s dream? That’s not very ethical, you know. Girls... especially pretty girls don’t like it when their significant other harbors such thoughts."
"Is that so?" Sam pretended not to understand.
Zoe smiled, looking up at the sky.
"Mm, wasn’t there a news story recently? A girl found out her boyfriend was cheating on her with another woman, and she ended up shooting him dead in the street, then cried holding his body."
"Ha ha ha, I was just joking! It’s so hot outside, let’s go back and talk, I’m exhausted from the trip."
Alright, the probe failed.
Walking beside Sam, Zoe, in her uniform, looked both sexy and charming. During this short journey ho, Zoe’s arm would occasionally brush against Sam’s, whether intentionally or not, remained unclear.
"I didn’t expect you to co back today, Sam. Why didn’t you tell in advance?" Zoe asked softly.
Sam chuckled. "Hmm... don’t you think it’s more of a surprise when I co back ho unexpectedly?"
Zoe replied with a smile, "Or did Sam forget about his sister?"
Sam widened his eyes. "How could I? I think about you every day."
Sam was lying again; honesty wasn’t exactly his motto.
Zoe smiled at Sam. "Did you rember to bring so local specialties or gifts for your sister?"
Had Zoe ntioned wanting local specialties before Sam left? Not that he could recall.
Sam looked at her as if it was obvious. "The only specialty from Cedarwood is Sam himself."
Zoe couldn’t help but laugh, covering her mouth with her hand.
The two made their way up to the apartnt.
When they arrived at Zoe’s door, she seed to suddenly rember sothing.
"Ah... right, I didn’t prepare any ingredients since you ca back suddenly. I was actually planning to cook a big al for you the day you returned... I’ll go to the supermarket now."
"Hey, you don’t need to go through all that trouble, sothing simple will do..."
Sam tried to dissuade her, considering the weather was too hot, and the sun was scorching, making him feel guilty for letting her go out.
However, Zoe smiled at Sam. "It’s okay, the supermarket isn’t far. Besides... how else am I going to soften Sam’s heart to have a al with ?"
Quite the strategy.
So, she’s just laying her scheming out like that? An open and helpless stratagem that’s both candid and irresistible.
"Maybe I should go instead..."
"How could I let you do that? You’ve just got back to Kuhang, go take a shower and rest for a bit. Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon and will ssage you."
Giving Sam no chance to refuse, Zoe turned and left swiftly.
This woman, who Sam had always found to be ’clingy,’ was surprisingly decisive for the first ti.
Maybe this is how Zoe is at work, and Sam had only seen another side of her in their personal interactions?
Sam didn’t want to ponder over this question at the mont.
He turned around and opened his own room door. Everything inside was familiar, unchanged. Stay connected with .Côm
Sam set down his luggage, took a big gulp of water, and decided to take a shower first, as he had sweated quite a bit on the journey. However, while looking for clothes to change into, he made an unexpected discovery.
"Hmm? Was it here all along?"
Sam picked up a pair of underwear that had been missing for a long ti, looking puzzled.
He had thought this pair was lost a while ago, and now it had mysteriously reappeared in his wardrobe, which was quite suspicious.
Could it be that Sam had misplaced it while doing laundry, thinking it was lost?
The most crucial detail was that the underwear seed to have been washed recently... wait a minute.
He sniffed it.
Sothing was off.
The scent of the laundry detergent was different, not the kind he used.
What was going on?
Sam, frowning, set the underwear aside and instead picked up a new pair.
After showering, it was nearing evening, but Zoe hadn’t sent a ssage yet.
Sam dried his hair, thinking it was getting a bit long and that he should get it trimd soon... He preferred short hair, feeling that handso n didn’t need elaborate hairstyles to look good.
Dressed in a T-shirt and comfortable shorts, his phone suddenly rang.
[Sam, you can co over now, everything’s almost ready~]
It was a ssage from Zoe. So she had been preparing in advance, waiting until everything was ready before calling him over?
Leaving aside her potential to kill him and hide his body under the bed, Zoe truly was a tender and considerate woman, embodying a man’s perfect fantasy of a good wife.
Sam put away his phone, stood up, and walked next door.
Then, he rang the doorbell.
Soon, footsteps could be heard from inside.
Click~~~
The door opened.
Sam initially thought nothing of it, but upon seeing Zoe, he couldn’t help but pause for a mont.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed, and her long hair appeared sowhat damp, loosely tied up, gently resting on her shoulders.
Her attire was particularly eye-catching.
The dress is extrely sexy, even a little sheer, with hints of the red lingerie colour, not to ntion the beauty of her exposed legs and breasts at this mont.
She seed like a treasure waiting to be discovered, an enticing fruit that begged to be eagerly grasped and savored.
Zoe noticed Sam’s gaze, her cheeks blushing slightly, with a shy look in her eyes.
"That... I just took a shower, and I didn’t have many clothes to choose from, so I ended up wearing this... You don’t think it’s strange, do you?"
Sam involuntarily swallowed, his adam’s apple moving noticeably.
"How could I... gulp..."
Feeling sowhat embarrassed, Sam tried to shift his gaze towards the ceiling.
However, Zoe stepped forward with a smile, wrapping her arm around Sam’s, pressing her breasts against his arm.
Then, with a gentle smile, she said, "Co in and have a taste~"
Sam wanted to ask,
Is it the al we’re talking about tasting... or is it you?
He didn’t know, but what he did know was that whatever it was, it promised to be very "delicious"...
