Her end-semester exams! Ella could not believe that she forgot about it completely.
She informed Adrian about her upcoming exams and begged him to tutor her again.
From the way Ji Yan paled at her request, Ella could see that Adrian probably had abundant work commitments.
Just as she was about to ask him to forget about it, he agreed to tutor her without hesitation.
Their tutoring sessions went just like before. In Mathematics, he guided her through the formulas and gave her questions before leaving for work.
And by the evening, she would be handed a thin comic book that covered a few Chapters of her thick history book.
The rest was still fine but every time Ella saw the history-turned-comic book, she wanted to worship Adrian or maybe erect a holy shrine in his name.
Because she certainly doubted that her tears of happiness would fall short.
During this time, Ella did not go to university as much as well.
The place was busy with co-curricular activities and their syllabus was nearly over so Ella decided to stay home.
On this particular day, Ella was curled in the comfy couch inside the renovated library of the Eve Mansion.
By her left, Riri was excitely swishing his tail as he looked around and pawed a few books gently.
On her right side, Lala was coiled like a cotton ball, visibly uninterested in everything and everyone.
Meanwhile, Ella was glaring at the romance novel in her hand.
’Ringggg’
Absent-mindedly, Ella picked up her phone from the coffee table and answered the call, "Hello?"
"You look mad."
Ella’s gaze snapped in the direction of her phone and Adrian’s ’I am sculpted by divinity’ face greeted her sight.
"I... am mad," Ella straightened up on the couch as she pointed at the book in her hand, "See this? I finished the entire book in 5 hours only to be disappointed in the ending..."
"The hero and heroine went through hell to be together and just when everything looked right, he ended up letting her go to protect her. While she thought that he had betrayed her so she married someone else..."
Just talking about it made Ella’s head throb.
When she looked at Adrian, he was frowning slightly, "I will ask them to get those books removed from the library," he declared solemnly.
"No way..." Ella hugged the book a little close.
Although it was angsty and tragic, she had a soft spot for this classics.
"Wait... Baby, why did you call me now? Do you need something?"
In the King Empires.
Ji Yan shook his head as he watched his Second Master fidgeting as a response to Ella’s question.
"Nothing particular," Adrian said eventually.
"Oh, no worries. You must have missed me too much."
"Mm," Adrian once again responded in his solemn voice.
After being tormented by the overdose of dogfood for eternity, the couple finally kept the call.
Adrian looked at his phone, with a small frown on his face.



Then Ji Yan realized... So, Second Master still wants Ella to be his date?
But why didn’t he ask her about it then? Could it be... he was afraid she would turn him down?
