The kiss amidst the skyline view
"How did you know about my mother's singing?" Xing Bi was genuinely bewildered.
Nian coughed. "Ai told me. I mean I asked her of course. She told me some things from your past which you shared with her."
He twirled the tip of his finger on the table, feeling abashed. "So I thought of singing that tune for you too! I mean…I thought it would make you happy…"
It was the first time that Xing Bi was witnessing an awkward, shy and mixed with guilt expression. Usually, it was either his goofy side or his serious side. The look of embarrassment for failing to sing properly was crystal clear.
It was amusing but extremely heartfelt at the same time. It was a sweet gesture that completely took her by shock but also tugged her heartstrings like a sweet melody.
Xing Bi let out a chuckle after much trying to suppress it. "So you were trying to imitate her. I was wondering why you were suddenly humming a tune."
