Chapter 214:
In the past, Stella had never had much contact with other men outside of her frequent interactions with Tristan in
the Richard family. Now, she was experiencing physical contact for the first tand was not used to it. If it
weren't for Steven pursuing her, he would rarely show affection to girls. There had been rumors about that
before in college.
Steven carefully wiped the wound on Stella's knees with a tissue, fearing that she might feel pain. To be honest,
there was only a small scrape on her knees with just a little blood. The injury was not serious, so Stella initially
refused. “Stella, tellif it hurts,” he urged.
While wiping her wound, Steven looked up at Stella's face. The people around them observed the scene and felt
envious.
“Ah, Stella, look at how nice Steven is! He is so concerned about you!” Kelly said, poking Stella and teasing her.
“You... don’t talk nonsense...” Stella rolled her eyes and replied with a flushed face.
Next to her, a group of friends cheered and laughed, “Let's talk about this! Let's discuss it!”
A chorus of excitement erupted.
“Stella looks so good with Steven! He has never been this kind to any woman! You have to cherish it!”

Steven squatted in front of Stella, looking at her. He genuinely hoped that Stella could accept him, but seeing
that she was in a dilemma, he spoke up, “Don’t make things difficult for Stella. It’s just the beginning.”
Because Steven said so and everyone listened to him, no one brought up the idea of them becoming a couple.
They preferred to let the two of them develop their relationship freely.
After cleaning Stella’s wound, Steven found a waitress, gave her a tip, and asked her to help him buy a bottle of
disinfectant cream. Then, he returned to the room. At this moment, the scene was as follows: Stella sat in the
middle with Steven and Kelly on both sides.
In the private room, the noisy atmosphere returned to normal, and the scene was no longer particularly
embarrassing. Steven was a chatty person, and when communicating with him, he didn’t make people feel like
he was a young master. He was friendly and gentle.
In particular, no matter what he said, Stella didn’t feel too much pressure. Steven had asked Kelly about many
things related to Stella beforehand. Therefore, when the two of them talked, they didn’t feel too awkward and
could relax. Meanwhile, the others in the private room were mostly singing and chatting.
After a while, the atmosphere becrelaxed again.
“By the way, Stella, do you know the song ‘How Much | Love You'?”
While they were chatting, Steven suddenly asked.
Stella was stunned and replied awkwardly, “A little bit.”
When it cto singing, Stella was like most people; everyone liked to listen to music and sing, especially Kelly.
She often recommended songs to Stella, which led to Stella being deeply influenced by her friend over time.
As for that song, Stella hadn't expected it. How could Steven's prediction be so accurate? Did he happen to know
it too?
Kelly, sitting next to Steven, secretly gave him a look, and Stella realized again that her friend had betrayed her
by telling this guy a lot of things!
From the tshe entered the private room until now, it seemed that Kelly had revealed she could sing. It
appeared that everything had to do with her!
“Can | invite you to sing a song together?” Steven asked nervously, starting directly at Stella as if he were afraid

Stella lowered her eyes, unsure whether to agree or not.
On the other hand, Kelly, sitting next to her, immediately agreed on Stella's behalf, “Okay! Just now, Stella asked
Stella was speechless. When did she say that?
Could this girl be... selling her out? Or had she tricked her into coming here just to set her up?
“Really, Stella?” When Steven heard that, he wanted to ask Stella about it and couldn't hide the faint smile on
his face.
Stella didn’t know whether she should say “yes” or “no.” However, thinking about how many people were
watching, she nodded and agreed, “Well...”
Anyway, it was just a song.
She felt so bashful that she seemed to be pretending.
“Okay! Let's choose a song for you!”
As someone spoke, another group began to pick a song. Just then, as soon as Stella agreed, her mobile phone
suddenly rang.
