Chapter 667
Celeste was gobsmacked the moment she got in the car.
There was a spread of food on the table, with a candlestick in the middle and a white rose in a small vase beside it.
Celeste couldn’t help but blurt out, “Who the hell is old school enough to set up a candlelit dinner?”
Liam had no response.
She turned to look at him and suddenly fell silent.
She opened her mouth to say something, but her stomach growled first.
Liam glanced at her, “Your stomach is more honest than your mouth.”
She brushed her hair and suddenly felt uncomfortable.
She had known Liam for so many years and knew that he didn’t have a romantic bone in his body.
One year, for Liam’s birthday, she bought a bunny outfit to cheer him up.
She had dressed up like that, only for Liam to start debating whether the outfit was a rabbit or a fox.
Liam thought it was a fox because the ears on her headband were too short.
Celeste was speechless. She argued that the tail on the outfit was obviously a rabbit s, not a fox’s.
So, Liam dug up a ton of data to prove that the ears on the headband were indeed a fox’s.
As for why the tail on the butt was a rabbit’s, it was likely that the store mixed up two different outfits.
It turned out that Liam was right, because the outfit and the headband weren’t from the same set.
But seriously!
Who in their right mind would still be holding a tablet and discussing whether it’s a rabbit or a fox at such a time?
Liam was essentially romance repellent. If you tried to talk to him about past lives, he’d talk about molecular theory, from the Big Bang to human evolution
If you wanted to take a walk with him in the rain, he’d say, “You’re wearing too much metal, you might get struck by lightning. Let’s stay in the car, it’s totally safe with the metal shell.”
This guy, setting up a candlelit dinner, was simply too shocking.
Celeste looked around
Seeing that she wasn’t sitting down, Liam asked, “What are you looking for?”
Celeste turned around, “Shouldn’t you have a couple of fire extinguishers nearby? It’s dangerous to light candles in a car.”
Liam glanced at her. They’re in the back.”
Celeste fell silent.
Yep, that’s the “safety first” Liam she knew.
Liam reached out and lifted the lid off a soup bowl in the middle handing her a spoon.
Actually, when Liam asked her out, she had just had a drink and wasn’t that hungry. But the smell of the food made her hungry again.
Celeste was going to be polite and decline, but at that moment, she just started eating
There were six small bowls on the table Liam opened them one by one. Although each dish was small, they were very delicate, and none of them were too rich, which made you want to eat them at first glance
Celeste was very focused when she was eating, not saying a word the whole time. In fact, she didn’t really know what to say
She had noticed Liam’s behavior recently and wasn’t turning a blind eye
But her feelings were confused, and sometimes she deliberately avoided Liam
