chapter 12

Adam nodded without saying anything, but silently made space for the only bench on the rooftop underneath him.

He remembered Aria saying that Daisy, who performed with him, had also received a lot of love letters and gifts recently.

The other person, like him, came to the rooftop to hide from others.

When Daisy saw his movements, the smile on her face deepened, so she trotted over and sat down next to Adam.

Daisy opened her lunch box and glanced towards Adam. There were only light dishes there. Then she looked inside her own lunch box, which was full of red food.

Daisy was silent for two seconds, then asked, "Do you eat such light food?"

The moment the other party opened the food box, Adam smelled the aroma of chili that almost hit him in the face. Adam, who always had a light taste, couldn't help but frown at the moment he smelled it.

Daisy didn't notice his strangeness and just said, "Do you want to try my food? Our aunt knows both Western and Chinese cuisine, and my mother specially sought her out. She is very good at cooking."

"Thank you, but that's okay." Adam looked at the red patch and felt a little reluctant. "I'm not used to eating spicy food."

"Well, next time I have a chance, I'll let you try the non-spicy dishes made by our auntie. They're also delicious."

Adam was noncommittal and just nodded silently.

The two of them ate quietly without speaking. After a while, Adam put down his chopsticks, quietly cleaned up his tableware, and then sat quietly.

Daisy thought that the other party would leave after eating, so when she realized that Adam might be waiting for her to finish eating, she quickly sped up her eating.

After a while, she also put down her chopsticks, but when she saw that there was a lot of food left in the food box, she felt disheartened.

There was still a long time left before lunch break, and Daisy wanted to talk to Adam for a while, so she took the initiative to find a topic.

"That's right, I didn't even ask you, why did you think of eating on the rooftop?" Daisy leaned back in her chair, her little feet dangling on the stool.

Adam looked at the time. It was still early, so he started chatting with Daisy, but he still said very little.

"Ava recommended this place to me. She said it's less crowded."

"Ava? Is she a classmate of yours?"

"Yeah." Adam thought for a moment and replied. Ava was indeed his classmate, and even his deskmate.

"Oh, so it seems you've received a lot of love letters, too." Daisy looked up at the clear blue sky, trying her best to control her tone from sounding sour.

This seemed to bring back some memories for Adam. His face twisted for a moment, then quickly returned to normal. He nodded and said, "Yeah, a lot."

Daisy pursed her lips silently, then straightened up from her seat, turned her head, and said to Adam with a serious face, "Adam, no matter how many people write you love letters, you can't fall in love prematurely!"

Adam was a little surprised by her sudden seriousness, but under Daisy's intense gaze, he nodded in agreement, and then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Daisy had been with him for almost a week, but this was the first time she saw Adam smile.

"So beautiful, Adam..."

Daisy seemed to be charmed by his smile and quickly turned away, muttering, "What are you laughing at? We are only in junior high school, so we can't fall in love too early."

"I thought you were the type to fall in love prematurely," Adam thought for a while and then said.

"No! If you don't fall in love early, I won't do it either," Daisy said the last part of the sentence in a low voice, and she didn't know if Adam heard it.

The two of them later chatted about their classes, but most of the time Daisy was talking and Adam was listening quietly.

The bright sunshine just shone on the two young people. Occasionally, a breeze blows and picks up the fine strands of hair on her cheeks. The strands of hair were tightly entangled, flying in the wind.

The scenes from the dream are still clearly visible, as if those memories have never dissipated in Daisy's memory.

She opened her eyes and stared blankly at the familiar ceiling of her room. The moment she woke up from her dream, Daisy knew that letting go of her feelings for Adam might be more difficult than she had imagined.

After living in her parents' house for a few days, Daisy had almost adapted to her life after her rebirth.

This morning, Daisy got up early and packed her luggage. She should go back. If she stayed any longer, her mother would start to suspect that something was wrong with her relationship with Adam.

However, Daisy did not take too much luggage this time. Those clothes would have to be taken back sooner or later after she and Adam divorced, so there was no need to take them with her.

After having breakfast and saying goodbye to her parents, Daisy took a taxi and left. Her destination was the hospital.

She made an appointment with Professor Diana today. Professor Diana formulated a detailed treatment plan for her condition. If it goes well, it will not affect her life in the future.

As for why she was so active in seeking treatment, it was all thanks to a phone call from Nyle a few days ago.

While the two were chatting, Nyle talked about the kidnapped girl.

According to what she learned later, the girl was extremely lucky. Not long after the girl's parents called the police, a caring citizen anonymously reported a gathering place for human traffickers.

After the police were dispatched and investigated, they discovered that the traffickers were the same group that had kidnapped the girl.

According to Nyle, the results of the handling of those human traffickers came quickly, and the sentencing was almost the highest among similar crimes.

Because almost no harm was done to the girl in this incident, Nyle felt relaxed when she talked about it.

But only Daisy knew what Nyle went through in her previous life, so she made that anonymous phone call when she knew someone was being kidnapped.
