Mutual Attraction (2)

There was something about him that called to her, and Xiao Rufeng wasn't sure what it was. Was it his sharp mind? She couldn't find the right words to explain it. She was fascinated with him, she was sure of it. Heck, she might be attracted to him too!

Xiao Rufeng could also see that he was trying to keep his distance from her, but she couldn't stay away from him whenever they were together. Yan Xiuchen wouldn't say much to her, but with the slight inclination of his head, she knew that he was paying attention to whatever she was saying.

He was kind to her, there was no question about that, but sometimes Xiao Rufeng wondered if it was all out of courtesy, or he was also attracted to her the way she was to him. The way he looked at her with appreciation whenever they dined together every night, the way he reminded her that she was fine being her.

Seeing him up this close, it only reminded her that she had it bad for him.
