The couple became aware of the intruder who had slammed the door so abruptly. Menxiang became embarrassed and tried stand up, pushing him away but Mingwen tightened his arms unwilling to let her go.
His hot breath landed on her face and neck as she looked at him. At the moment, she was in a spell unable to look away from his eyes. It was as if a pale light surrounded him, making him look so tranquil and tolerant, warm and gentle.
His lips curved, when he noticed how entranced she was. "Are you okay?"
She swallowed softly when she noticed how happy he was. "I want to go home."
"So soon?" His voice concealed a trace of disappointment.
"Yeah."
"But I called the hospital to make sure you had free time today." He was still adamant.
"I don't feel so well." Menxiang was sure he could hear her beating heart placed in between them.
He finally got the message that she wanted to be away from him but was still expressionless. "Okay."
