You Are The Apple of My Eyes

Chapter 673 She Can't Wait To See Leon

Joanna lifted Michelle's chin to get a good look on the girl's face. In a mimicking voice, she said, "Leon, I miss you so much..."

Michelle reached out to cover her mouth, her face blushed.

"You read my diary!"

"Let go of me first. I won't do your makeup if you don't let me go," Joanna said in a muffled voice as she glanced playfully at Michelle. NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

Michelle furrowed her eyebrows and pouted.

Her face was still flushed, but she reluctantly let go of her hand and snorted at Joanna.

"It's wrong for you to read my diary. It's so embarrassing." Michelle crossed her arms and plopped down on the chair angrily.

"You call that a diary?" Joanna recalled Michelle's desk. Several loose papers were scattered all over and most of them were written in a mess.

"Other people usually take a notebook and write on it carefully. You, on the other hand, look like you just suddenly thought of something and casually wrote it down on the first thing you lay your eyes on." She then pinched Michelle's chin again and added, "Don't move. Close your eyes so I can apply some foundation on you."

"Okay." Michelle raised her head and closed her eyes.

"I didn't mean to read your diary." Joanna squeezed out some foundation cream and slowly applied it evenly on Michelle's fair face.

After thinking for a while, she decided to explain.

"When you asked me to get some snacks last time, I saw it by accident. It actually made me curious about him. I guessed you had feelings for him. And it turns out I was right." A proud smirk slowly formed on her lips after she finished explaining her side.

"Do you also have someone that you like?" Michelle asked as she opened her eyes.

"I don't have a boyfriend at the moment." After Joanna was done applying foundation on Michelle, she proceeded to work on her eyebrows. She noticed that they were dense and in good shape so she didn't need to do so much work.

"You don't have a boyfriend at the moment. Does this mean that you had one in the past?" Michelle blinked her eyes innocently as she waited for an answer.

Joanna smiled softly as a nostalgic look appeared on her face. "He was my desk-mate in middle school, and later on he was admitted to a key high school. In fact, I got accepted as well."

"Why didn't you go to high school? You would have been in the third year by now, right?" Michelle unconsciously raised her eyebrows in confusion.

Joanna paused. "Yes. Anyway, stop talking. Your eyebrows move every time you speak. If you don't shut up, I'll end up making you ugly in front of the person you like."

Michelle pursed her lips. She definitely didn't want to show up in front of Leon with ugly eyebrows.

In fact, she honestly wanted to look beautiful in front of him.

"I'm going to shut up now." She didn't utter a single word or make any sound afterwards.

Instead, she silently followed everything that Joanna ordered her to do.

Joanna ended up giving her a fresh summer look. Her make-up faintly matched the color of the dress she was wearing, making her appear playful and sweet.

"Joanna, you're amazing!" Michelle exclaimed. She had a wide smile plastered on her face as she continued to admire her new look in front of the mirror.

"Now, that we're done with your look, you'd better hurry and meet him," Joanna said after admiring her handiwork.

Afterwards, she proceeded to clean up all the cosmetics that they had taken out.

Michelle grabbed her hand. "Let me clean this up for you. It's the least I can do for troubling you with putting on my make-up. Thank you, Joanna. Go ahead and rest now."

"Alright, then." Joanna shrugged. She instantly agreed without a second thought and went back to bed. Although a yawn had already escaped her lips, she didn't feel sleepy just yet. She closed her eyes and asked quietly, "When are you going to confess your feelings for him?"

"What?" Michelle paused.

"Oh my god! Have you never thought about expressing your love to him? Are you planning to keep it to yourself?" Closing her eyes didn't seem to help Joanna at all. She sat up with her legs crossed and hugged a pillow close to her chest. "Why would you want to keep your feelings a secret? If I were you, I would rush up to him and confess how I feel."

Michelle narrowed her eyes. "I only know that I like Leon. I don't even know if he feels the same way. He only treats me as his sister. Honestly, I don't care if I get rejected once I confess how I feel about him. I'm more afraid of the possibility that I won't be able to see him again in the future and that he may gradually distance himself from me."

Joanna stared at her blankly and scratched her head in confusion. "Well, that's a bit troublesome. I'm going to bed."

"Okay." Michelle smiled. She continued tidying up the cosmetics and went back to her room. As if to kill some time, she relaxed herself on the chair and started browsing on her cell phone.

There were more than 99 messages on her WeChat, more than 40 of them were unread and from Leon. Seeing this, Michelle couldn't help but smile.

While checking on the messages one by one, she realized that Leon would say goodnight to her every day. This delighted her even more compared to the missed calls that she received this morning when she turned on her phone.

She had dialed back the number this morning as soon as she had seen the missed calls.

Her heart felt like leaping from her chest with happiness when the sound of a ring interrupted her.

It didn't really matter, however. She couldn't wipe the smile off her face after seeing the caller ID.

"Hello, Leon, have you arrived here already? I'm coming down. I'll be right there soon." Michelle immediately stood up and snatched her bag before dashing out the room.

Since Leon informed her that he would be arriving at the door soon, she had to make a run for it because she didn't want to make him wait for too long.

Michelle bolted towards the door swiftly, taking one quick stop to stretch her head out to look outside before leaving the club.

Yesterday afternoon, they went on a vacation and had some fun. The male members of the club went to drink. They didn't come back until late at midnight.

So there was no one else in the club at this hour.

If anyone saw Michelle get up so early and caught her sprinting in a dress, they might think they were seeing things.

As Michelle ran out of the club, a slender figure gradually came into view. She smiled brightly as soon as she recognized the face and rushed over quickly as she could. "Leon!"

Michelle ran out in a hurry that she didn't seem to notice the big slope by the entrance of the club. It was not that steep, but she might lose balance and trip.

When Leon spotted Michelle running towards him, his heart almost skipped a beat. "Slow down!"

Ignoring his words, she ran as fast as she could. All Leon could do was to silently pray that she wouldn't accidentally fall down in the process.

Seeing Michelle's smiling face made his heart melt. A chuckle escaped his lips as he watched her approaching him.

As she drew closer to him, Leon couldn't help but open his arms slightly. He didn't stretch them out straight but instead he bent them into an arc, as if her were bracing himself for the impact.

Michelle continued rushing down.

The moment she noticed his arms out front, her eyes were filled with joy. She really missed Leon, and it didn't have to take her two months to realize that she liked him.

At that moment, all she knew was that she could not wait to wrap her arms around him.

Fortunately, she still had some trace of sense in her. She stopped the moment she was about to rush into Leon's arms.

It was as if she hadn't been running at full speed when she abruptly halted herself inches away from Leon.

She couldn't rush into Leon's arms. If she did, her heart would start beating wildly again and he would definitely hear it.

"Good morning, Leon. You're so tall. Much taller than me." Michelle plastered on the sweetest smile that she could muster.

Leon blinked awkwardly a few times before slowly withdrawing his hands that were still extended midair. Afterwards, he straightened himself up and forced to act like as if nothing had happened.
