Chapter 366

Chapter 366

Mike had been single for over a decade.

His sister, Sarah, always felt a twinge of guilt about it. If she could play matchmaker and find him a partner, it would fulfill their parents' longstanding wish.

7-Eleven was bustling, thanks to its proximity to the local high school where exams were being held. The store was packed, with a long line snaking towards the cashier.

Mike picked up three umbrellas and three bottles of water, preparing to pay, when he spotted a familiar face across the aisle.

It was the young woman he had bumped into last time.

"Hey, fancy meeting you here again," Mike walked up to her with a friendly grin.

The young woman paused for a moment before recognizing him, "Oh, it's you."

They lined up at the cashier together.

Mike chuckled, "You covered my bill last time. Allow me this time."

"No, that's alright, but thank you," she demurred.

"Don't worry about it. If I pay for you today, I'll still help someone else in need next time I'm here," Mike assured her.
