Chapter 1237: Chapter 1232: Stolen Kiss (Part 2)

Actually, Ji Yanche’s parents and Ruge’s parents all know each other. Both sets of parents are old friends.

And Ji Yanche himself had just found out from his own parents that Ruge’s mom and dad were getting a divorce.

She... would she be hiding somewhere secretly crying?

She must really need someone to be with her.

So—he came.

He canceled all his afternoon schedules.

Ji Yanche lifted his chin and said righteously, "It’s not like I’ve got anything this afternoon anyway. Better to be idle here than idle there. Is there a problem with me coming to see you?"

"Half an hour ago I saw your Moments post, you were just complaining about having dance practice this afternoon."

"Huh? Did I? You probably misread it with your presbyopic eyes."

"......" Forget it, whatever.

In Ruge’s eyes, she was really too familiar with Ji Yanche, so familiar that even with him here, it was almost no different from having a transparent person around.

Ruge sat down on another sofa, took out her phone, and opened a romance game. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

She wasn’t interested in the voice acting or the story in this game.

She was inexplicably obsessed with pulling cards.

She’d already sunk who knows how much money into it for the sake of drawing cards.

But it didn’t matter. There was no limit on her allowance.

The small apartment Ruge was living in now had also been bought in full and given to her by her mom right after she found out Ruge was coming back to study in the country.

This was probably her soon-to-be-divorced parents’ way of compensating her.

Ruge let out a slightly self-mocking smile.

The sofa next to her sank a little as Ji Yanche came over hugging a throw pillow, "What are you playing?"

He was so close to her.

His breath seemed to curl right around her ear.

There was some scent on him she couldn’t quite name, but it smelled really good, a very clean sort of feeling.

Paired with that flawlessly handsome face that charmed people of all ages, it was simply...

Ruge’s heart skipped a beat for no reason. She pushed Ji Yanche to the side a bit. "Can you not get this close to me? If your fans see me I’m going to get hunted down, okay."

"This is your place, it’s just the two of us here, where would any fans come from?" Ji Yanche looked at Ruge, amused, and poked her cheek. "You’re blushing, huh?"

"Ji Yanche!"

"Okay okay okay, I’ll shut up." Ji Yanche immediately surrendered, then lowered his head to glance at the screen of Ruge’s phone. "How come even you’re playing this game? Which guy in it do you like? Ah ah ah, I’m not listening, I’m not listening, you’re not allowed to like other men, not even the ones in the game!"

Ruge gave him a speechless look. "I don’t like any of them. They’re virtual characters to begin with, I just like collecting cards."

The cards were divided into SSR, SR, and R.

SSR cards were the rarest.

In the game, each male lead had different card illustrations.

Ruge had already collected several pages of SSRs, and once she leveled all of them up to max stars, she would get this inexplicable sense of achievement from raising them.

Hearing her say that, Ji Yanche’s eyes suddenly lit up. "Wait for me a sec, okay."

With that, he ran into the study.

Ruge didn’t think much of it and continued leveling up her cards.

Ding-dong.

Just then, a notification popped up on her phone.

It was a Weibo post from Ji Yanche: Dear fans, please drop a photo you think I look the most handsome in down in the comments~

In just two minutes, the comments had shot past ten thousand...

This guy, is there no limit to his narcissism?

Ruge glanced over it, then looked toward the study.

Who would imagine that this wildly popular, center-of-attention superstar was right here in her home at the moment...

The feeling was kind of surreal.

Ruge didn’t dwell on it and tossed her phone aside.
