You Are The Apple of My Eyes

Chapter 647

It continued to rain loudly and non-stop for a while. Michelle seemed to be completely immersed in her own world without a care of the people beside her.

Suddenly, a pair of leather shoes appeared in her line of vision. Her eyes moved up, following the long and straight legs before her. She then found herself face to face with a handsome man. He wore a gentle smile on his face.

"Leon!" Michelle abruptly stood up. Gone was the dead-eyed look on her face. Her eyes instantly lit up like a starlit night sky as she looked at him happily.

Michelle's smile was like magic to Leon. It made his heart burst out with so much joy and happiness. She didn't just smile with her lips but with her eyes as well.

"What brings you here, Leon?"

"I came over to pick you up." Leon raised his chin at the sign that said, "Lost and Found." Michelle followed his gaze and suddenly giggled. She then stepped right under his umbrella.

She then noticed the other umbrellas in his hand and immediately realized the truth. "Did Wynn ask you to pick me up, Leon?"

"Yes. Now that you're here, let's go." Leon smiled and then began thanking her schoolmates.

Some of the girls went crazy upon seeing him. He was such a handsome man with a gentle smile. He even thanked them politely for no reason at all. The students couldn't help but think that he was such a gentleman.

"How come I can't have such a perfect man like that?" Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"Are the two of them siblings?"

"Maybe."

"But there isn't any family resemblance at all. They are obviously a couple. And now they are showing off their love in the Lost and Found Office."

"I regret not asking him for his WeChat number. Of course, I don't expect him to become my boyfriend, but at least I'll have someone nice to look at in my WeChat Moments!"

"He really is pleasing to the eyes. Where did she get such a boyfriend? Can she get one for me?"

"Hey, hey, hey! Look at the campus forum. Someone has just taken a photo of them together and posted it. It's even trending now. Look!"

It was posted by a female student from the photography department. Her post said that she had nothing else to do today and so she wanted to take some photos around the campus while it was raining. When she saw this couple walking together under the rain, she thought that they would make a good photo together. And now, she wanted to share it with the others.

The photo was taken from a distance. As a result, it was a wide shot that made the couple look small. The two of them blended with their wet surroundings like splotches of ink in a painting It was obviously captured by a high-end camera. The couple's faces were crisp and clear in the photos.

In the photo, Michelle was looking up at the man beside her with a bright smile. The light shone on her face, making it look like a white magnolia flower.

The girl looked so elegant and beautiful in that shot. At the same time, her teeth and slightly narrowed eyes made her look naughty when she smiled. The photo perfectly captured her bright and lively energy without further edits.

Even though nobody could really hear what she said in that photo, her eyes were expressive enough to tell a story. It showed that she was very happy, and it was all because of the person

beside her.

Nobody could really see Leon's face. Standing next to Michelle, he looked so tall. His black clothes also made him look thinner. The camera caught his long figure, but the umbrella covered half of his face.

But even with just half of his face exposed, people could see the smile on his face. They could also see his slender, pale fingers holding the umbrella. Those who liked hands were immediately obsessed with his fingers. It wasn't long before many people were liking the post.

Someone even pointed out how the man had tilted the umbrella so that the raindrops fell on his shoulder. He was clearly protecting the girl from getting wet by the rain.

Of course, this was all based on the photo. But because Leon was too tall and the rain was coming down too hard, Michelle was in danger of getting wet from just a little wind.

Leon realized this problem while Michelle was handing an umbrella to her roommate. Her hair and clothes were already getting damped. He could even see white droplets clinging to the strands of her hair.

He frowned upon realizing that the umbrella was useless.

The second umbrella was given to Debra. Upon seeing Leon, Debra almost fell in love with him at first sight. However, she would never steal someone else's boyfriend. She had to stop herself there and then.

With a smirk on her face, Debra asked Michelle if Leon was her boyfriend. Michelle seemed surprised by this question and instantly said that she treated Leon as her brother.

Debra thought if she had a brother who looked like that, she wouldn't mind staying single her entire life just for him.

Michelle and Leon watched Debra disappear in the rain. She then turned to him and said, "Let's go now, Leon."

Leon squatted down in front of her and said, "Get on my back."

Looking at his broad and warm back, Michelle found herself at a loss of words. "But I didn't sprain my ankle. I can walk by myself."

"The umbrella is too small to shield two people," Leon explained turning his head to motion at her to hurry up and get on his back.

Michelle obediently climbed over his back and put her arms around his neck. Her damp hands accidentally brushed the skin on Leon's neck, sending chills along his back.

"Are you cold, Michelle?" Leon walked in the rain with one hand supporting her and the other holding the umbrella.

"I'm not cold. I'm wearing a hoodie." Michelle then reached for the umbrella in his hand and said, "Let me hold the umbrella, Leon."

"Okay." Leon let her take the umbrella from him. It helped him get a better hold on her body if she was the one holding the umbrella instead.

The raindrops drummed against the umbrella, creating a sort of rhythm.

"Are you busy with your studies lately?" Leon asked.

"It's fine. I'm not really busy with school. I just need to study and make sure I don't fail any of my courses," Michelle answered. "I play games whenever I'm free, and I'm familiar with the people in the club. I'll go there once I'm done with my final exams."

"Your club is quite far from here, isn't it?" Leon remembered what she had told Lydia last time. "It seems that you'd get there in two hours by the subway. Do you live in the club or somewhere else?"

Michelle also wondered if she should just live in the club or continue living with Leon. However, it was not the distance that bothered her. She was more afraid that she was disturbing Leon.

Leon had been very busy recently. He barely even had the time to talk to her most days. But she was worried about him if he lived alone.

Eventually, Michelle found herself getting lost in thought.

"Why did you suddenly become quiet?" Leon asked.

"Oh, I haven't figured it out yet." Leon's voice pulled her back to reality. Michelle pursed her lips as if she wanted to ask something, but she didn't dare ask out loud.

Leon, too, looked hesitant. It was as if he was waiting for her to ask.

"Michelle, I know you just said that you're not too busy. But why are you sending less and less messages lately?"

Indeed, Leon was used to her being talkative. Whether it was on screen or face to face, she always had a lot to say. It got to the point that it had become his habit.

"Did you read my messages? I thought you were just too busy to read them, so I thought I shouldn't disturb you too much. If I flooded you with my messages, you might miss some important messages in the process."

Leon was stunned.

Did she really think of it that way?

He thought that she had probably sensed that something was wrong after that night and decided to distance herself from him.

For a long time, he was angry at himself because he had an erection in front of her. But upon hearing her words, he felt enlightened.

He had been too sensitive that night. After all, waking up so suddenly at night meant his head was a mess.

He had to let the matter go.

Now that he had thought this through, he finally felt more relaxed. He smiled and said, "Why is are you so considerate? You don't have to worry about that too much in the future. If you want to say anything, don't hold back. I've been too busy recently. I thought I'd already replied to your messages. But it turned out I hadn't, so I'm sorry about the misunderstanding."

Michelle wasn't sure if Leon was speaking the truth. Nonetheless, she felt so happy after hearing his explanation.

"It doesn't matter. If you are busy, don't hesitate to tell me. I'll be good. I promise I won't disturb you."

"You are so sweet." Leon smiled happily.

Michele giggled. Her warm breath fanning over his neck, tickling him a bit. Fortunately, it didn't garner any unnecessary reactions from him.

Raindrops had accumulated along the road, forming small puddles. The surface of the puddles reflected the two of them as they walked under the rain. Despite the rainfall, their image on the puddle was clear.
