"Thank you, senior." Seraphina Sinclair considered for a few seconds and opened the car door to sit inside.
Rather than having Keith Hughes constantly attract attention by trailing her, it was better to get in actively.
"Where’s your ho located?"
Keith suddenly leaned forward, startling Seraphina.
He reached over to fasten the seatbelt for Seraphina, which finally made her relax and give her ho address.
Diamond Island is a vast island, not governed by any country. The island’s owner is like a king and controls the island’s economic lifeline.
The island residents are diverse, and there are countless companies and malls.
If Bayside City is a city, then Diamond Island is almost as large as a nation.
Therefore, neither the previous appearance of Desmond nor Keith’s presence surprises Seraphina. Diamond Island is not isolated; it has inextricable ties with the outside world.
Even if Keith knows her ho address, she doesn’t have to worry about him knowing any connection between her and the island’s owner.
As they drove past a grilling stall, Keith stopped and turned his head to look at Seraphina, with a childlike excitent in his eyes: "I heard these street stalls have the best taste. I wonder if the junior has tried them?"
"They’re quite nice." Seraphina gave a fair reply.
Although she doesn’t often eat at street stalls, each ti she does, she enjoys it. Occasionally sitting street-side with friends having a little drink and barbecue feels good too.
"Shall we have a try?" Keith smiled and looked expectantly at Seraphina.
Faced with such a gaze, Seraphina couldn’t refuse, so she nodded: "Okay."
The two chose a clean spot to sit, and Seraphina, familiar with the place, handed the nu to Keith, kindly introducing: "The grilled lobster here is quite good. See what you might want."
"Boss, let’s order three to four sticks of every kind of skewer, a plate of crayfish, and conch, and so beer as well." Keith glanced at the nu and ordered directly.
The tone of his voice didn’t seem like soone who hadn’t experienced street stalls before.
The boss greeted them warmly: "Alright, just a mont, it’ll be right up."
Before long, the dishes arrived, and Keith bead: "Let’s eat."
Seraphina wasn’t really hungry, but couldn’t resist Keith’s enthusiasm, so she ate a little.
She reached out to grab a can of beer but was promptly intercepted by Keith: "Girls shouldn’t drink outside, especially pretty girls like you when there’s a man around."
"I’m not a little girl anymore." Seraphina couldn’t help but laugh. This senior was not quite like she imagined.
But his words made Seraphina slightly fond of him. At first, he felt unfamiliar, now Keith seed to be a good man.
"In my eyes, you’ll always be that junior back then." Keith said while moving the beer toward himself and kindly peeled the shrimp, placing it on Seraphina’s small plate.
His tone was gentle and seed to carry a bit of reminiscence: "I still rember during school, you always had a refreshing high ponytail. I fell for you at first sight."
"Senior..." Seraphina didn’t rember Keith from their school days, feeling a bit awkward hearing this, "Let the past stay in the past."
"Indeed. Probably too young to understand love back then. Just thought you looked pretty, couldn’t help but express my feelings. In hindsight, a bit impulsive." Keith felt slightly shy.
Hearing this, Seraphina breathed a sigh of relief: "Everyone was young then, the age of budding romance, not understanding love is normal. You’re so outstanding, surely you’ve found an ideal partner by now?"
Discussing this topic, Keith’s eyes imdiately sparkled, and he smiled and nodded: "Yes, I have."
"What kind of girl is she?" Hearing he found soone he likes, Seraphina relaxed, no longer feeling restrained.
Since he wasn’t truly fond of her before and now has soone, there’s no need to be overly distant.
"She’s very beautiful, her eyes are clear and bright. But I still secretly love her, haven’t confessed yet." Keith sighed, sowhat forlorn, "No idea if she’ll like soone like , what if she’s already seeing soone?"
Seraphina rested her chin on her hand, thoughtfully advising: "If you really like her, first find out if she has a boyfriend. If not, pursuing her slowly isn’t too late."
"But I’ve never been in a relationship, lacking experience, don’t know how to woo a girl. If too impulsive, it might get rejected like my confession to you back then." Keith sighed again, seemingly truly troubled.
"Cough, I refused because I already liked soone..."
"So, if you didn’t like soone then, you wouldn’t have turned down?" Before Seraphina finished speaking, Keith looked at her expectantly.
Seraphina was stumped, not knowing how to reply.
Keith realized he said sothing inappropriate and quickly apologized: "Sorry, did I scare you? My apologies, I just wanted to know your thoughts; they might give insight into her feelings."
"Everyone has different personalities. My thoughts aren’t necessarily hers. Senior, if you truly like her, pursue her actively. Regardless of the result, won’t you have no regrets?" Seraphina took a deep breath, offering her suggestion.
Keith found it imnsely helpful: "I think you’re right. But I’m inexperienced in these matters, so I have an unreasonable request. Can you help ?"
"Tell , senior, if I can assist you, I’d be glad to." Seraphina slightly curled her lips. If it’s doable, it’d be repaying a favor.
"I don’t know how to pursue girls. Could you be my advisor, offering strategies?" The deeper Keith got into it, the more embarrassed he felt, not waiting for Seraphina to respond, he lowered his head with a touch of disappointnt, "Is my request too unreasonable? If it’s inconvenient, you don’t have to. I can think of sothing myself."
Seraphina initially thought it was sothing significant, but it was rely this.
After considering for seconds, she smiled and nodded: "If I can be of help."
"Thank you so much, junior Seraphina." Keith looked as if he won the lottery, smiling with joy.
