297 I Can Sleep With You

Qing Lok already fell asleep on the short drive to the Feng's residence. The driver had to call him thrice before he could open his eyes. He grabbed his phone and called Liu Meilien. He already had the phone pressed to his ear and he closed his eyes some more.

Why isn't she answering? his mind whispered. The next thing he heard were the continuos knocks on a car window and the door opening. Before he could open his eyes, arms locked around his neck and he could hear sobbing.

"Why are you crying?" he asked, wrapping an arm on Liu Meilien's waist, almost pulling her to his lap. Her body's warmth was really comforting. "Don't cry."

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I will be better if you can stop crying, baby."

Liu Meilien made a hysterical sound between laughing and crying. "Did you just call me baby?"

"Did that sound weird?" he asked, caressing her hair. "We haven't decided what to call each other yet."
