82 Whatever...

Luo Xiaolei could hear the rapid thumping of her heart against her chest. She was caught off guard by his sudden, disconcerting movement. It startled her; making her freeze for a brief second. 

She could tell he was still not calming down at all. His palm on her eyes was cool, as if it wasn't the same warm hand she held last night, and then she felt him lean his forehead on the back of his palm which was covering her eyes before he spoke. 

"I'm sorry…" his voice was seemingly skeptical, his tone sounded as hard as his clenched jaws. "I can't calm down unless I…" He left his sentence hanging. "I don't want you to see me like this. So go home first, I'll follow once I calmed down." His voice had become a soft murmur, but still livid. And she could tell that he was struggling.    

Common sense told her to just listen to him and not make things harder for him but just the thought of leaving him here made her bite her lip hard.
