I mean, I do enjoy the peace and freedom I have now . It isn’t that bad to live like this for the rest of my life, frankly speaking .
Wen He then spent the next two days at home, taking a break from her dancing career as she got herself indulged in some sitcom from America, about a snobbish theoretical physicist having zero knowledge of living . It was relaxing as she got up sometimes to cook herself a meal . Nevertheless, as heaven forbid, her fridge went empty . She had to head out for food .
Right when she opened the door, a shadow raided her . She tried pushing it away and it turned out that it was a finely sculptured waist she recognized .
“…” In her bewilderment, Wen He watched the man lifting his head in her embrace .
Her eyes enlarged . She could not believe that it was really Huo Chen .
She pulled a grim expression after withdrawing her astonishment as she pushed the heavy man further away from her . “Mr, Huo, what is the issue of you standing before my house, may I ask?” She spoke impatiently, “If you’re going to do that ‘You are Wen He’ crap again, you can leave now . I’m not wasting my beauty sleep on you . ”
“What is this?” She took a sniff . A strong smell of alcohol swarmed upon her nose .
He’s drunk?
“Wait!” Huo Chen tried standing up straight and held the shutting door . The top of his shirt was unbuttoned as he panted, exuding a mature charm different from his usual military outfit . He still looked ever-calm and rational despite looking flushed . “I’m here—to give you an answer . ”
“What?” Wen He frowned .
“Can we talk about this inside?”
“No . ” Wen He rejected .
Huo Chen pressed his lips, trying to hold back his overwhelming feelings, “Wen He, I’ll just be here to talk to you for once . And after that, I’ll respect your thoughts . Any thought, even if it includes the wish of never seeing me again!”
“…” She bit her lips while backing away as she hid away her emotion .
She walked a few steps and turned to give a ferocious stare, “I told you I am Karina!”
“Mhm . ”
He could not help but smile at the sight as the aggression reminded Huo Chen of her old self—even if it lasted for just a second .
He gave a nod of cooperation before walking in, taking a look around the living room furnished in a poetic style, as he sat onto the yellowish white sofa . His eyes shook as he tried looking at Wen He directly opposite .
“Am I not getting tea?”
“Mr . Huo, please show some awareness of your identity here today . You are not a guest I’ve invited . ”
Ugh! This man! How can he be so goofy when he’s always calm?
And why can I never be calm whenever I face him!?
I promised myself to be ever-indifferent to everybody, including Huo Chen . And look at what I’ve done?
“Alright…” Huo Chen sighed helplessly .
“Okay, so what’s up?” Asked Wen He after taking a deep breath .
Huo Chen’s hands tightened as they gripped his thighs . There were all sorts of feelings rolling under the thin lining of his icy eyes .
It took them a few minutes of anticipation in silence before he finally mustered every piece of strength to say his words .
“Wen He, do you want to be with me? Not a play, not a game . Seriously attached to each other . ”
The line struck Wen He into silence as it sent her back months back when she once dreamed of hearing such a line from this man . All the while feeling hopeless as she knew deep down her dream would never come true .
And yet the confusion was stronger than her surprise .
She even thought if Huo Chen was too drunk to talk straight, as she stared at him in disbelief . The man was cool as ice, nonetheless .
“Mr . Huo, I think you’re drunk as none of your words make sense!”
