Kenneth Osborne didn't have time to greet Spring Spencer, and immediately chased after Lawrence Winters into the venue.
Spring Spencer smiled self-deprecatingly, turned around and looked at the square again, as if searching for something, or perhaps nothing at all, just unable to take his eyes off the distance.
...
Shortly after Lawrence Winters went in, she sensed that Kenneth Osborne had caught up.
She didn't want to slow down, but Kenneth Osborne was running too fast.
In just a few steps, he grabbed Lawrence Winters's hand and chuckled softly, "…Are you jealous?"
Lawrence Winters: "!!!"
"I'm not! I'm not! Don't talk nonsense!" Lawrence Winters quickly retorted, using a classic threefold denial.
Kenneth Osborne looked at her with a smile, his gaze gentle like water, like a pond under moonlight, where a single glance could drown you, "Denial is explanation, explanation is cover-up, cover-up is fact. — So you are."
