Beryl crossed her arms in front of her. She felt that no matter what, she should express her gratitude to him. "Although a lot of unpleasant things happened tonight, I am very grateful to you for saving me."
The girl's soft voice was like soft candy with juice. Marcellus slowly turned to look at the little girl beside him. She shrank her shoulders, and her eyes were full of vigilance. This look is disappointing even if the stunning beauty falls into his eyes.
However, not only was Marcellus not disappointed, but he also felt that it was a little pleasing to the eye.
Didn't she know that it was very dangerous to thank a person who had just bullied her like a little white rabbit at night?
Marcellus suddenly sat up from the bed. His movements were so fierce that the collar of his pajamas was opened, revealing most of his bronze abdominal muscles.
Beryl looked away awkwardly. "I'm done. I'll go back to the guest room first..."
"Beryl." Before Beryl could finish her sentence, Marcellus interrupted her directly. He stood up and stood in front of her, like a human wall, directly making her look extremely small.
Beryl swallowed her saliva. She clenched her hands in front of her and asked nervously, "Wh-what's wrong?"
"Have you been in a relationship?"
Beryl had thought that he would ask something, but she did not expect him to say such a thing.
She was a little confused and answered instinctively, "No."
Not to mention falling in love, when she was a student, she only knew how to study hard. She didn't even have a boy she had a crush on. Later, at a party, she mentioned that a boy in her class liked her and expressed his feelings many times without receiving any response. She thought that she had been rejected, but in fact, she didn't receive any signal at all.
She was very clear about the big things, but she was a little dull about the small things. Maybe her life rhythm was too urgent, so she didn't have time to think about these things.
"No." Marcellus nodded and smiled with satisfaction. "Very good. I've never talked to such a girl before. Date with me."
