The time spent staying and playing with the dogs helped her forget the pain of her breakup with Asher as much as possible.
After that night, Wendy had run into Asher a few times at school. Unlike the coldness he showed when he deliberately ignored her at the bus stop before, they still passed each other like strangers, but Asher had lost that sense of deliberate coldness.
Even Neil showed no particular reaction on his face when he saw her again.
Wendy sensed that Asher was adapting to and accepting the reality of their breakup.
That was a good thing.
On Thursday afternoon, Wendy had no classes and went to the stray dog shelter to help clean the kennels.
The April sun was warm and gentle. Wendy held a hose, washing the dog cages on the lawn.
In the distance, the staff had just returned from walking a group of dogs.

Hearing someone mention something about "hot" and "kiss," Wendy's mind felt dizzy as she pulled away from Asher's embrace."Wendy."Just as she swiped her card to enter the dorm building, someone called out to her. It was Gao Xinran, who had been discussing a group project with her teammates in the lobby."Hi," Wendy waved at her. "Are you done with your discussion?""Yeah."The two walked together toward the elevator.Gao Xinran's face was flushed as she glanced at Wendy's swollen, kiss-bruised lips but said nothing.The elevator arrived quickly. After exchanging a few casual words, Wendy was about to get off on the second floor when Gao Xinran couldn't resist calling out to her again."Wendy, your boyfriend kisses you with such raw desire!"The scene outside the window had left her mouth dry and her body feverish.Everyone had been seriously discussing their group presentation when someone suddenly said there wa

Last night, after learning that Wendy had no classes this afternoon, Fanny Wen had Sam take Wendy grocery shopping in the morning. They visited two different supermarkets in one trip and ended up filling the fridge completely.Unlike Sam, who preferred buying frozen ready-to-eat meals, this time the fridge was packed entirely with fresh fruits, vegetables, and meat.After dinner, Wendy was watching TV on the sofa while Sam sorted through emails, seeing which were bills and which were advertisements. Fanny Wen cut up a plate of fruit, placed it on the table, and sat down beside Sam."Daughter, see if there are any Chinese-language programs on," she said."I'm not sure, let me check," Wendy replied. She rarely watched TV, preferring to search for whatever she wanted to watch on her computer."Sam, do you know?" Fanny Wen asked."I'm on the road too much to watch TV," Sam said. "When I get home, I just turn it on for background noise to make th

This tall, strong, golden-haired foreign guy is my daughter's boyfriend?!Fanny Wen was taken aback.Forget about the fact that her daughter was dating a foreign boyfriend; she had never even heard Wendy mention having a boyfriend in America. Wendy had returned to China for both winter and summer breaks without saying a word about it. Fanny Wen froze for a moment, her eyes scanning Asher up and down.Wendy first introduced Asher to Fanny Wen using Chinese, then switched to English to introduce her mother to Asher. Although he could understand some Chinese, the introduction for this first meeting needed to be more thorough.After they became acquainted, Wendy shook Asher's arm. "So why did you come tonight?""Wait a moment." After saying this, Asher turned back to the bench in front of the dormitory building. He had something to give Wendy.Wendy looked in Asher's direction, her eyes widening instantly. She immediately went up and snatched it right from him. "My puppies!"Inside were t

Walking all this way, Wendy was overjoyed. She hadn't drunk any alcohol, but her feet felt as if they were stepping on clouds, her whole body light and floating."What's wrong?""Nothing, I was just thinking about last Saturday when we went back to your dorm together too," Wendy said. "Thinking about how you pretended to be cold, pretended you didn't like me, but actually you really like me—it's just so amusing."But there were also sad moments, like when she tested him and thought he really didn't like her, that feeling of disappointment in that moment."When I said I was afraid of being misunderstood, so I wouldn't stay at your dorm, were you very anxious?" Wendy blinked her big, bright eyes. Hah, he must have been desperate with worry, so afraid she wouldn't go.Unexpectedly, Asher glanced at her lightly and deliberately said, "It was fine.""..." Wendy's pretty little face instantly fell. "Then I'm not going."Asher smiled,

Asher was still on an IV drip, so his movements were very gentle. When he sucked on her lips, it wasn't with his usual almost-devour-her-whole attitude. Instead, he kissed her, then paused, waiting for her reaction before coaxing her to respond.Her shoulder leaned against the man's firm chest, her entire back sinking into his embrace, gently pressed against his strong pectoral muscles. Wendy could feel the still-pumped-up muscles of a player who had just come off the field.So strong! She loved it way too much!Her breathing became rapid, her eyes hazy from the heat.Footsteps occasionally sounded outside the door. Wendy wasn't sure if Neil had left or if someone might suddenly barge in. These worries kept popping into her mind, but there was nothing she could do about them.She was pressed tightly against the man's strong chest. This possessive beast wasn't letting her go; she could only obediently accept his lingering, wet kisses.So comf

At the end of the first quarter, the Submarines, who weren't known for scoring, had already racked up 16 points, while the Lightning had yet to put any points on the board.Coach Matt had no choice but to make a substitution, sending Asher into the game.However, Asher had spent the entire week focusing on mentoring the newcomers, and the coaching staff's strategy had been built around Montahi.In the second quarter, although Asher quickly scored a touchdown, the Submarines continued to add points, widening the gap instead of closing it.During halftime, Drew, the Submarines' defensive end and this year's standout rookie, found an opportunity to approach Asher.Drew had the confidence of a newborn calf unafraid of tigers: "I've studied every single one of your games from the past three years—more than once, in fact. It's been useful because no other quarterback compares to you. Beat you, and I can handle any quarterback."Drew arrogant
