Before Mnie left the office, she went to the bathroom. As expected, her period came early.


    It was not easy to hail a taxi at the LeapCo office building, so Mnie had to walk a few hundred meters out.


    Eugene’s car drove out of the underground parking lot and stopped in front of her.


    He lowered the car window to reveal his handsome face and asked casually, “Didn’t you drive today?”


    Mnie paused and replied, “I sent my car for repair.”


    She lowered her eyes. She already said that her car was sent for repairst night, but <b>Eugene </b>did not listen.


    “Are you going home or somewhere else?” Eugene asked.


    “Home.”


    “Come in then.” Eugene gestured. Mnie looked over to Vi, who was in the passenger seat.


    Vi’s smile was stiff. She frowned slightly and reminded Eugene in a low voice, “Aren’t we supposed to buy something? We won’t want to bother Mnie.”


    Eugene raised his eyes and looked at Mnie. “Do you mind waiting for a while?”


    Mnie did not mind, but she clearly saw Vi’s unwillingness. She paused and said, “No, thanks. My friend will drop by to pick me upter.”


    Coincidentally, her phone rang as soon as she finished speaking.


    It was Stephen.


    Mnie did not know why Stephen called, but she shook her phone and said, “I have to take this.”


    Vi immediately turned to look at Eugene, feigning anger. “Look, I told you we would bother Mnie.”


    However, Vi’s tone was clearly relieved. Mnie did not say anything else and went aside to answer the phone.


    Eugene stared at Mnie until Vi tugged on his sleeve.


    Vi bit her lip and looked at Mnie’s figure in the rearview mirror.


    Mnie stood upright. Her long hair was blowing in the wind, and her facial features were delicate. She had a slight smile on her face.


    It was hard not to feel a sense of crisis when Vipared herself to a woman like Mnie. Vi’s eyshes trembled, then she hugged Eugene’s arm aggrievedly and said in a soft voice, “Eugene, are you still hung up on Mnie?”


    The emotions in Eugene’s eyes faded. He looked down at Vi and said softly, “I was just wondering when she and Stephen started dating.”


    Vi froze and sounded aggrieved. “Why do you care?”


    Eugene sneered and said in a contemptuous tone, “I just feel sorry for Stephen.”


    After coaxing Vi, Eugene stepped on the elerator and drove away.


    Mnie heard the sound of the car starting and looked back to see that Eugene’s car was far


    <b>gone</b>.


    She pursed her lips and rested for a while before agreeing to Stephen’s invitation to have dinner.


    Stephen was nearby, so he came to pick her up. He held <b>a </b>small bag in his hand and handed it to Mnie. “I was in a hurryst night, so I did get to give this to you.


    Stephen was always like this–gentle and considerate.


    Mnie felt veryfortable with him. He was one of the few friends that Mnie could share a meal with.


    Therefore, her request seemed unreasonable.


    Mnie hesitated for a long time and did not say anything. Instead, Stephen noticed how hesitant she was and asked with concern, “Did something happen?“.


    Mnie lowered her eyes. “It’s not a big deal. I can handle it myself.”


    Stephen hummed and said with a smile, “But you look very troubled. Do you want to talk about it?”


    He paused and said tentatively, “Is it because of Eugene and his girlfriend?”


    Most people in the circle knew about Mnie and Eugene, but Eugene refused to <b>admit </b>it, so no one dared to speak openly about it.


    Stephen was also afraid that he was prying<b>. </b>Just as he was about to say something, Mnie tried to keep calm as she asked, “Will you be my boyfriend?”
