Chapter 2752
After returning the smile, Nicole asked, "So, you invited me here to ask me about something?"
"Yeah. I actually would like to learn from you," Cindy’s cheeks flushed as she coyly said.
"Learn from me?" Nicole frowned. "What does Cindy even want to learn?'
Lulu was also stunned. She repeatedly blinked at Nicole, trying to understand what Cindy was talking about.
Nicole shook her head as she did not know what Cindy was really after.
Cindy then continued, "Martin likes you very much, so I would like to know what I can do to touch his heart."
She was hoping that Nicole would be able to impart some tips and tricks. That way, Martin would fall for her.
Nicole furrowed her brows upon hearing that. "How do I even teach someone something like this? I didn't manipulate Martin into falling in love with me.'
Lulu's jaw was left hanging, after which she frowned and curtly asked, "What are you trying to say? Are you implying that Nicole seduced Martin into liking her?"
Cindy's face turned pale as soon as she heard the response she had garnered. "I'm sorry. That was not what I meant."
Cindy could tell that Lulu and Nicole had misunderstood her request, and she realized there and then that she might have phrased her question terribly.
Thus, to clear the air, she quickly explained, "What I meant was that the both of you know Martin better. What should I do to become a potential partner for him?"
"Ah, that is so much better." Lulu replied with a laugh.
"I'm sorry. I phrased my question horribly. Here's the thing. I really like Martin, and I don't want to lose him." Cindy bit her lips and said dejectedly.
"But what if you still fail even after we've helped you?" Lulu asked in concern.
From the day she moved to San Joto, she had not made a single friend. If she was not hanging out with Martin in the lab, she would constantly be on her own in her apartment. This had made her very isolated and lonely. Otherwise, she would not have forced herself to meet Nicole.
All things considered, Cindy was a lot more familiar with Nicole as compared to the others, although they had only met once.
"Thank you." Cindy's eyes welled up, for she had finally found company.
"Alright, let's eat first. As for what you requested, we'll tell you about Martin's preferences first. As for the rest, I'd advise you to take it slow. Although you've got the upper hand, things would still have to progress gradually for feelings between the both of you to develop," Lulu said as if she was a relationship expert.
"Alright, let's dig in. We'll talk while we eat." Cindy became excited at the mention of Martin.
The ladies had a fun and merry lunch thereafter, filled with nothing but laughter and incessant chatter. Even when the meal had ended, they were reluctant to part ways,
"I can still hit you both up, right?" Cindy asked.
