The air seemed to be still for a moment.

Quill batted his lashes, while Vera stared seriously at him.

She had confessed to him, yet he did not show any response.

Either way, she had expressed her feelings, or... Should she be a little bolder?

A thought came into her mind. Vera felt that her heart began to pound rapidly and the adrenaline was rushing through her veins.

She took a deep breath and made a decision.

The next second, she suddenly stood on her toes and pecked Quill on the lips.

Quill merely wanted to return the phone to Vera. Out of his expectations, Vera confessed to him all of a sudden. He was taken aback and wanted to turn her down, but when he thought that she was a good friend of Minerva, would he hurt her feelings if he rejected her right away?

When he was still deep in thoughts, a dark shadow suddenly befell him, followed by a soft kiss on his lips.

Vera brushed his lips with hers and then quickly stepped back; her lips felt like soft cotton.

Her face was flushed with embarrassment. After the kiss, she dared not meet Quill's gaze, thus she turned around and ran away without a trace.

Quill, on the other hand, was glued to the spot. He was holding Vera's phone in a daze.

As time passed by, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Quill.

It was Minerva. She was about to look for Beanie, but unexpectedly bumped into Quill at the door.
