Chapter 370

Last night was a dream?

For a long time, the two of them just stood in the same spot, with Zoren hugging her from behind. He kept his head rested on her shoulder while Penny kept her gaze down.

"Huh?"

"Penny is also direct and wouldn't beat around the bush. You also have the same eye color. And when I thought of it, you also smelled like toast."

"Chunchun's birthday. Thursday."

""You saw her?"

""Mhm. Did you buy her lie?"

"I wanted to."

"How did you find out?"

Zoren smiled. "Renny."

"Renny?" She looked back at him, curious. "What about him?"
