Chapter 217 The Entanglement Begins
Charles's voice was slow. "Isn't it a good thing to reward you?"
"It is a good thing, but being tied like this, I'm not used to it." Adeline was indeed quite concerned about that badge, two hearts, and the intimacy points that kept increasing.
Charles seemed to be pondering, and after a while, he slowly smiled. "This kind of thing, it's hard for me to bring up."
Adeline didn't continue the topic. "I'll think of a way later."
You better not come up with a way.
Charles pinched the bracelet with his fingertips; it seemed the security level of the streaming platform needed an upgrade.
Especially for badges like Guardian Angel, they couldn't just disappear.
That night, the people in charge of the streaming platform received a notification.
The focus was on the Guardian Angel badge and the need for streamers to maintain VIP users.
Logically, Charles wouldn't bother with such trivial matters.
These executives were now confused about what exactly should be reported to Charles, and what shouldn't.
They had a time difference and wouldn't chat for long.
Moreover, soon Summer came in with a blanket, urging Adeline to sleep.
Charles sensibly ended the video call.
But the last sentence he said before hanging up was particularly intimate. "Wait for me to come back."
It was like a boyfriend on a business trip telling his girlfriend.
Adeline's heart felt an indescribable sensation.
Ultimately, it was because Charles's voice was too pleasant, and he was too handsome. If it were someone else, she probably wouldn't think much of it.
Since that time she bit him, the scene of that day often appeared in Adeline's mind.
Even in her dreams, his face would appear.
It felt like they had known each other for a long time, very familiar.
But she couldn't remember.
Adeline slept in the blanket that had been sun-dried during the day, still smelling of sunshine.
Summer saw her staring at her and thought she was afraid of the dark like when she was a child.
She fanned her and started telling Adeline a story.
This was rare for Adeline.
She knew those stories better than anyone.
But she didn't expect that such a story would really make her fall asleep unknowingly.
The next day, when she opened her eyes, even the pencil case was ready on the desk.
Adeline was still a bit groggy, her long hair messy. She rubbed her eyes and hugged the blanket, planning to continue sleeping.
Summer wouldn't allow it, pulling her arm. "Come on. Aaron said you must take the exam today! The whole school is waiting for your results!"
