Not one-sided
At the entrance of the Zhu villa gate, Chyou stepped out of the car and looked back at Yating. "Thanks for dropping me home."
"I should thank you. Thanks a lot…for just being there," he smiled. "And of course, the fireworks were fun too."
She smiled back. "Yes. It was awesome."
"See you later. Good night."
"Good night."
He drove away while she remained standing at her place, watching him leave.
'What if I want that woman to be you?'
Chyou found it difficult to breathe. She knew what those words meant but her mind resisted believing in them.
Had Yating really fallen for her?
"I think I misread his words. I am still not an expert in lip reading," she awkwardly smiled. Though even with this reassurance, her heart wasn't at ease.
She opened her clutch and held out the delicate pendant chain in her palm. The Q letter pendant sparkled gracefully.
