With that, he was about to leave.

Ruka couldn‘t help but say to him from behind, “Miss Parfait really likes you, so you can try to accept

her.”

Ren froze before looking sideways slightly. “What about you?”

Ruka was lost for words for a moment. Then, in a moment of haste, she blurted out, “I don‘t like

someone who‘s older than me.” As soon as she said that, she retracted these words inwardly. No, I

didn‘t mean to spurn him. I just want to use this excuse to refuse to let our relationship go deeper. If my

parents know that he and I have crossed such a line, they‘re gonna give me hell. She grew up abroad,

but she was an old–fashioned lady at heart.

The man turned around. A faint gleam flickered visibly across his eyes under the light, and his eyes

darkened as though he‘d get angry at any minute.

Ruka took a gulp. “Sorry... I didn‘t mean to spurn you...” she hurriedly apologized.

At first, she thought that the man would lecture her angrily. However, she heard him say, “Okay, I got it.

Go to sleep.” He gave no response, but he sounded hurt.

Ruka suddenly felt that she was a mean person who hurt him with her words. Taking a deep breath,

she walked toward him instead of returning to her room. “I‘m really sorry, Mr. Ren. Don‘t be angry,

okay? That‘s not what I mean. I just feel that you deserve a better person. I don‘t deserve you at all, nor

am I qualified to be someone you love...” she explained behind him while regretting what she had said

on an impulse just now.

Her mind was in turmoil in the first place, and she didn‘t look where she was going. Therefore, when

the man stopped in his tracks, she bumped into his back.

She quickly took a step back, whereas the man turned around and fixed his eyes on her. “I don‘t like

your apology.” He expressed his stance right away.

Ruka blinked her eyes. “What kind of apology do you like, then?” Is there a better way of making an

apology other than saying sorry?

Ren‘s gaze fell upon her red lips, and his eyes darkened with a hint of danger. “What do you think?” he

asked in reply.
