When There Is Nothing Left But Love (Ashton And Scarlett)

Right then, a handsome young man who looked around twenty years old approached me.

He smiled brightly at me, and I subconsciously responded with a gentle grin.

“Are you looking for something?” he asked.

I nodded. “I was looking for some materials for legal research, but my effort was in vain.” It’s probably because I’m not familiar with this library.

He looked at me and explained gently, “Most of the books here are scattered. There are more professional resources in the reading room next door. You don’t seem to know this place well. If you don’t mind, may I show you around? Maybe I can help you find the books that you’re looking for.”

I thanked him with a nod and a smile, “That would be wonderful!”

Just as he had described, I found the books I wanted in the reading room next door. When we were exiting, he asked, “You don’t look like you’re from this university. Are you here for an exam or a Ph.D. student?”

I chuckled. “I’m just here to borrow some books. You look really young. A junior?”

He nodded. “I’m going to be a senior soon. Can I have your phone number, please? You remind me of someone.”

Amused, I asked, “Is this a pick-up line used by young boys nowadays?”

He denied, “No, you really looked like the celebrity I had always liked a few years ago. You two are so alike. She’s seemingly quitted the entertainment world. I liked her very much, so when I first saw you, I thought you were her.”

As soon as he said that, I knew that he must have mistaken me for Nancy. Hence, I told him, “I’m sorry, but I don’t think I can give you my contact number.”

Confused, he asked, “Why?”
