Although other people could not see what was happening in the car due to the reflective film on the windows, it was visible from the windscreen.
After all, Mireya was considered a public figure now, and she did not want her kiss with Ryan to appear on the trending searches the next day. Otherwise, she would certainly be so embarrassed.
“You’re not focused. It seems like I need to try harder.”
Ryan kissed her lips even more firmly as if he was punishing her. He did not leave his hands idle too. Only until the kissing left them both breathless did he let go of his hands.
However, he pressed his body against hers reluctantly. “Come and spend the night at my place, okay?”
The man’s desperate gaze made Mireya’s heart pound, and her face was flushed red. She really did miss him, but…
“That’s not a good idea. If I don’t return home, my parents will definitely know that I’m at your place… They won’t agree with it. What’s more, I need to be with Dani at night.”
“It’s just one night. You can get your mom to look after Dani.” Ryan caressed her ear unhappily while persuading her, “Try and give your parents a call. What if they agree? If you feel too shy to say it, you can lie to them by saying that you have to work overtime.”
“You even want me to lie? How can you be so despicable?” Mireya thumped his chest in a huff.
Ryan gripped her hand and forced a smile. “Think about how long we haven’t spent the night together. I’ve put in a lot of effort to fight for the chance to move out, but if you refuse, I can’t force you either. I’ll just sleep over at your place.”
The woman pushed Ryan away with her hand. Mireya gazed at the handsome face before her, speechless. She did not understand how a person could become so brazen. “Don’t you feel embarrassed?”
“My pride is nothing compared to my girlfriend. I’ll tell Mrs. Lynch that I’ll sleep in the guest room. When midnight comes, I’ll secretly sneak into your room…”
Mireya’s scalp tingled. Experiencing it once was memorable enough, and she did not want to go through it again. “Alright, stop talking. I’ll be with you tonight. Happy?”
“That’s a good girl.”
3PlayvolumeAd Ryan kissed Mireya’s forehead. After having his way, he had a smile on his dashing face.
Mireya cocked her head to one side as she realized Ryan’s demeanor seemed more relaxed than before.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Ryan’s gaze landed on her slightly swollen, red lips. He started getting eager again.
“You cut your hair.” Mireya touched his neat, short hair nonchalantly and said with a smile, “You even dress quite young now, like that of a fresh, young man. I almost didn’t recognize you. You don’t look like yourself.”
“What should I look like then?”
“You used to dress like a mature veteran.”
Ryan raised his eyebrows. “So do you like the old me or the current me?”
“I like them all,” Mireya admitted to it openly.
Upon hearing that, the corners of Ryan’s mouth curved into a grin. He hugged her and kissed her twice more. “I was working at a government department before, so I had no choice. I had to dress in a way that made me look mature. If I dressed too young, people would look down on me. Now that I’ve resigned, I don’t have to be so particular about what I wear anymore. I can wear whatever is comfortable. After all, I’m only 26 years old. I can’t look too old-fashioned. It’ll spell trouble for me if my girlfriend gets tired of my looks and doesn’t like me anymore.”
“You look pretty good like this.” Mireya circled her hands around his neck. “Dressing more maturely gives off a composed charm, but you look handsome the way you are now too.”
“Thank you.”
Only after making out for a while did Ryan drive her to the nearest mall.
Mireya intended to buy shoes last time. However, Rodney appeared and made a fuss, so she did not manage to buy them. She did not go shopping after that either.
This time, the chance finally came again.
Ryan brought Mireya shopping.
They had barely gone shopping together, and especially after they had gone official, they rarely went to places with crowds.
Ryan held Mireya’s hand openly. Their hands were interlocked just like an ordinary couple in the mall.
When they passed by a beverage store, a child walked out with a colorful ice cream cone in hand.
Mireya glanced at it and started craving it.
“You can get it if you want it,” Ryan said.
“But I’m scared I’ll get fat,” Mireya said shyly. “Besides, eating ice cream is bad for your gut health.”
Ryan blinked. “Then… Let’s not eat it. Should we have something else?”
Just after he said that, Mireya glared at him. “But I want to eat ice cream. Would you mind me getting fat?”
“…”
Ryan finally knew what women looked like when they became unreasonable.
“No. Didn’t you say it isn’t good for our health? Alright. Why don’t you have some, and I’ll finish the rest?”
After that, Ryan glanced at the woman cautiously. He was afraid that his reply would make her angry again.
“Okay. You can go get the ice cream.” Mireya let go of his hand. “I’ll be waiting for you over there.”
After glancing at the queue, Ryan resigned himself to walking over to join the queue.
“Bro, are you queuing up to get ice cream for your girlfriend too?” Behind Ryan, a man in his 20s started a conversation with him. “Sigh. Women are such troublesome creatures. They have a sweet tooth.”
“There’s no helping it,” Ryan replied indifferently.
“But your girlfriend is really gorgeous,” the man said while smiling. “Is she mixed-race?”
Ryan was stunned. Mireya was not of mixed race, but her features were very defined. At first glance, she did look like she was of mixed heritage. “No.”
“She’s so pretty. It’s a shame that she’s not a celebrity. However, she looks quite familiar. Could she be a celebrity?” The man suddenly started gossiping.
“Oh, there’s no way.” Ryan pretended to be surprised. “Celebrities will surely wear masks.”
“You have a point there.”
Mireya was completely unaware that many young men were eyeing her while she sat in the beverage store.
She was sitting on the chair and scrolling through her phone leisurely.
PlayvolumeAd4 At that moment, she truly realized the advantage of having a boyfriend.
She would have had to queue up foolishly if she wanted to have ice cream.
“Hey girl, can I have your number?” Suddenly, a tall guy stood in front of her, looking at her shyly.
Mireya was taken aback. She had not been hit on for a long time.
“Excuse me. She already has a boyfriend.” Ryan gave a gentle reminder as he came over with an ice cream in hand.
The man’s handsome face blushed. “I’m sorry. I thought…”
After he spoke, he bowed and walked away awkwardly.
“Ms. Lynch, you’re quite attractive.” Ryan handed over the ice cream to her with a vague smile.
“Ahem. Well, of course. My parents passed down good genes, and I was born pretty. There’s no helping it.”
Mireya accepted the ice cream while chuckling. “Are you jealous?”
“A little, but I wouldn’t dare to get jealous unreasonably. I’m scared my girlfriend will be unhappy.” Ryan put on a cautious look on his face.
Mireya burst out laughing. “Don’t worry. I won’t abandon you. I’m not one who messes around with someone and leaves.”
“Okay, okay. Thank you.”
Ryan grinned, revealing his deep dimples.
That face made Mireya really want to go over and kiss him.
