Only you in my love

Chapter 700 Don't Fall In Love With Him

Debra observed the interaction between Michelle and Leon. Even though she didn't want to disappoint

Michelle, she didn't want her to get lost in her own imagination. All the while, Leon's eyes were too

calm, which made Debra suspicious.

Even after hearing everything Michelle had done for him, and saying that he would support Michelle

forever, his demeanor remained calm, as though everything was according to his plan.

"Leon, you're going to support Michelle forever because you treat her as your sister, right? Is it because

of Nina?"

'Nina passed away and Leon obviously misses her. It would make a lot of sense if he projected his

sisterly feelings toward her best friend, ' she thought.

It wasn't out of the ordinary for an elder brother to support his younger sister forever. Debra's brother

often told her that she could marry if she wanted to get married in the future. If not, she always had the

option to stay at home. It was very likely that Leon was thinking the same way.

If Michelle hadn't fallen in love with him, she would've been really lucky that Leon promised to support

her forever. However, things had reached a point where it became unfair to Michelle.

Michelle liked Leon. She didn't want him to see her as his sister.

Both girls waited for Leon's answer.

"Maybe." He shrugged his shoulder and poured filled Michelle's glass with orange juice. "Are you

hungry? It's time for lunch."

They all stopped talking and picked up their chopsticks. The last dish that arrived was the fried snails

the Debra ordered.

A savory spicy smell began to diffuse in the air. The dish looked so mouth-watering that it made

everyone smack their lips in anticipation.

"When I saw Lydia post the fried snails made by her father in her WeChat Moments last time, it made

me crave so much. I didn't expect this dish to be served in this restaurant. I'm not even sure if this is an

authentic cuisine. Anyway, I'm so hungry I'll start eating." Debra licked her lips and grabbed a spoonful Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

of the snails into the bowl. "They're so small! How should I eat them?"

The aroma of the food also made Michelle's stomach grumble. "I want to eat them too. Here, use a

toothpick."

"A toothpick?" Debra took the toothpick from Michelle's hand. Then, she wore plastic gloves, held a

snail, and took the meat out.

"Yummy! Go try them, Michelle! But it's a little spicy. I want some water." Debra's face was turning red

as she fanned her mouth using her hand.

After pouring Debra a glass of water, Michelle began to eat. When the fried snail landed on her tongue,

it was so spicy she felt as though the inside of her mouth was on fire. However, she liked her food spicy

and continued to eat.

Whenever the spice was too much for her to handle, she would drink some orange juice. After a while,

the juice in her glass became water. And before long, the water became milk.

Michelle was so busy eating that she didn't find out why her orange juice turned into water, then into

milk.

She didn't add either orange juice or water to her glass. Whenever she reached out for it, it was already

half full, as though the glass replenished itself.

Debra was also too busy savoring the spicy snails that she didn't notice Leon wasn't eating as much.

Instead, he was busy refilling Michelle's drinks.

"It's milk," Michelle suddenly exclaimed. It wasn't until now that she found out.

"Leon poured it for you. Leon didn't pour it for me. You're so special to him. It's as if he's taking care of

his girlfriend," Debra joked as she smiled impishly.

Leon brushed off Debra's teasing words and pretended that he didn't hear them. He didn't pour a glass

of milk for her.

Instead, he sat there quietly.

On the other hand, Michelle was taken aback by what Debra had said. She was so distracted that she

accidentally stabbed her index finger while trying to poke the snail she was holding.

"Ouch! My finger! It hurts!"

When she pulled out the toothpick, her finger started to bleed.

Tears started welling up in Michelle's eyes.

"Oh my God! How did you hurt your finger? Don't worry. I'll find you a Band-Aid." Debra removed her

plastic gloves and stood up.

"Okay." Michelle tried to hold back her tears and suck the blood from her finger. But since she was just

eating spicy food, the wound would sting if she did so.

All of a sudden, a huge shadow cast in front of her. She looked up and saw Leon reaching out to grab

her wrist.

He held Michelle's hand and placed her index finger into his mouth.

The sight of her finger in Leon's mouth made her lightheaded.

She held her breath and remained still.

Despite her best attempts to stop herself from crying, her eyes were already wet with tears.

Michelle winced as Leon began to bite her index finger. She wanted to withdraw her hand, but Leon's

tight grip on her wrist stopped her.

Michelle blushed. "Leon," she murmured.

Leon looked at her while her finger was still in his mouth.

The temperature between them started to rise as Michelle began to sweat.

When Debra came back with the Band-Aid, she happened to see the scene. Michelle was staring

blankly at Leon with blushed face, while he was holding her wrist and looking at her, her finger in his

mouth.

Since Debra could only see the side of Leon's face, she wasn't able to see his expression. The

distance between them was too small that the table in the middle couldn't separate them.

With Leon's unique method of making the bleeding stop, Michelle didn't need any Band-Aid.

Debra silently hid the Band-Aid behind her back and waited for Leon to let go of Michelle's hand before

approaching them.

"Here's the Band-Aid." She handed it to Leon. "Leon, come here to help her. I'm afraid I'll hurt her."

Instead of sitting down, Debra stood beside the table. Leon then took the Band-Aid and sat next to

Michelle, while Debra sat in Leon's seat.

For the remainder of their meal time, she sat alone while Leon and Michelle sat next to each other. She

watched on as Leon picked up the food for Michelle. Since her finger was hurt, Leon requested the

waiter to change her chopsticks into a spoon.

If only Leon weren't acting so calm, then they would've looked like a sweet couple.

'My brother wouldn't be as considerate as Leon if my finger were injured, ' Debra thought. After lunch,

she made up an excuse to leave.

After Debra left, Leon and Michelle decided to walk around.

From time to time, Leon would look at her index finger. "Does it still hurt?" he asked.

"Not when I touch it." Michelle shook her head and changed the topic. "Do you like the orchid I gave

you, Leon?"

"Yes, I like it very much." Leon was carrying the paper bag with his left hand.

"Michelle, did you buy the orchid from your classmate?" Leon asked.

"Yes. Debra told me that he had a lotus-petal-shaped orchid, so I bought it from him. I heard from Wynn

that you like lotus-petal-shaped orchids, so I wanted to buy one for you."

"Why did you want to give me a gift? The shaver you gave me last time was for the Children's Day.

What's the occasion this time?" Leon was still trying to wrap around his brain what Michelle's motive

could be.

Michelle's heart skipped a beat as her face turned red. "Because I did something wrong to you, Leon."

'I kissed you in secret.'

"What is it?" Leon's mood shifted as his eyebrows started to tighten.

The guilt made it impossible for Michelle to look Leon in the eye. "I'm sorry. I can't tell you."

A long silence pervaded the air between them as they continued walking.

After a while, Leon softened his tone. "Have you fallen in love with Colby?"

"What?" Michelle looked up at him and tilted her head in confusion.

Obviously, she hadn't fallen in love with Colby.

Upon sensing that it wasn't the case, Leon's face started to soften and a smile formed on his lips.

"Don't fall in love with him. He's not as good-looking as me."
