Heartache
After half an hour, Lu Ning reached the hotel entrance .
"Ms Lu , we're here." Lu Yu stopped the car and went to the back to help her with the door.
Lu Ning got of the car , looking stone-faced. Her little face was still tear-stained.
Lu Yu looked at the girl in front of him, opening his mouth as if to say something but ended up keeping silent.
As the black car slowly left her sight and disappeared into the night, Lu Ning 's empty and numb eyes regained focus. She stood rooted at the same spot for quite some time before slowly walking towards the inside the hotel .
She didn't return to the hotel room immediately but sat on a long bench by the hotel' s side little lake.
The cool night wind cut across the surface of the lake and blew against her face, reviving her senses.
Not long ago, her past had almost been replayed out .Lu Ning could not tell exactly what she felt currently. It was a complicated feeling. She felt like a caterpillar in a cocoon, whose silk was being reeled off unexpectedly. There was a slow pain that was impossible to ignore that was slowly spreading within
She was not able to control her emotions so she decided to return back to her room. But little she didn't know someone observing her secretly.
When she entered in her room he stop following her and went back.
Lu Ning slammed the door shut after she entered the her room . Her slender back pressed roughly against the cold and hard door and she sank to the ground.
Like injured butterfly wings, her long lashes fluttered nonstop as her eyes slowly turned cold and she moved a fist in front of her mouth. Mustering up all of her energy, she tried to restrain the emotions raging inside her mind.
She really hated this type of entanglement.
It had taken her so much effort to steel her heart, yet he put the thought that he cared for her once again.
Her chest heaved crazily as she closed her eyes.
By the time she opened them again, her emotions had slowly calmed dow and the fire in her eyes had dulled again.
She could not let herself be enchanted by him again.
The taste of being abandoned, hurt and ignored to was not something that she wanted to experience again .
Bo Yan drove straight to his new condo at Royale residential . When he opened the door, he found Bo Mian asleep on the couch.
She was wearing a crop hoddie and low-cut pants. Her white ankles were exposed, looking extremely cute and alluring.
Bo Yan quietly took off his blazer to cover her...
Bo Mian must have been too deep sleep because she didn't notice that a jacket was placed on her...
One hour later Bo Mian sluggishly woke up, and, as her eyes opened, she saw the piercing light of the chandelier.
It was only then that she realized that she wasn't at Bo Mansion anymore, but at her and Bo Yan 's new home.
"You're awake?" asked Bo Yan gently as he looked at her tenderly.
Mhm," Bo Mian drowsily replied.
"I ordered the food , let's eat together."
He did not wait for a reply from Bo Mian as he put down his laptop and walked into the kitchen.
Then, he brought out two servings of toast, bacon, with fried eggs .
Bo Mian wanted to say that she wasn't hungry, but, as she opened her mouth, her stomach immediately betrayed her and rumbled.
Bo Yan put the toast and coffee in front of her on the coffee table.
Bo Mian didn't want to seem stuck up, so she slowly dug in.
Perhaps it was her hunger, or maybe some other reason, but the food was delicious.
Watching Bo Mian silently eat his food, Bo Yan 's gaze became soft in an instant...
After silently finishing her food, Huo Mian took the dishes into the kitchen.
As she turned around, she bumped into Bo Yan
.
She didn't know what he was doing in the kitchen at that time.
They were so close together that it made Huo Mian nervous.
Bo Yan hands were against the wall, surrounding Bo Mian with his arms. He warmly looked down at the person in his embrace.
Bo Mian was successfully cornered without any warning...
"Excuse me, I still need to wash the utensils," Bo Mian said as she pretended to be calm.
Bo Yan stared at her face for three seconds.
"You don't have to do these things."
After speaking, Bo Yan moved and created a passageway for Bo Mian. He walked up to the sink and began washing the used utensils.
Bo Mian didn't know what she was supposed to do...
When Bo Yan finished washing the utensils and exited the kitchen, Bo Mian was still sitting on the sofa. It was already ten o'clock at night.
"It's late, we should… sleep." With his hands in his pocket, Bo Yan leaned against the doorway and looked at Bo Mian.
"I'm not tired, you should sleep first," Bo Mian awkwardly replied.
"Are you afraid of sleeping with me?" The corners of Bo Yan 's mouth raised up into a smirk.
Bo Mian didn't expect Bo Yan to be so direct and, therefore, was slightly taken aback.
Then she blushed.
"No," she replied.
"If you're not afraid, then what are you waiting for? Go to bed." With that, Bo Yan turned around and walked upstairs towards the bedroom.
Watching Bo Yan climb up the stairs, Bo Mian immediately regretted her big mouth. Why did she have to respond so carelessly?
Now, look what she had done. If she didn't follow him, it would seem like she was going back on her word. However, she really wasn't ready.
Truth be told, she didn't even know how she felt about Bo Yan
She had agreed to marry him purely to ensure Lin Mulan 's wellbeing.
