Chapter 188: What is going on?

"Hmhm... and I love you so much!" I could no longer find my tongue when she suddenly stood up and kissed me on the cheek as she grinned widely at me.

"Tss! Yeah, really! But I know you!" I replied without even batting an eyelash.

"Oh, gosh, Sam?"

"I've known you for so long that I've already memorized how many times you fart even when you're sleeping!"

A frown instantly crept across my forehead when I heard her question because if I remember correctly, she had already asked me the same question earlier before the party began.
