Chapter 864 - Long Time No See (2/2)
Mu Sihan stood on the balcony, a cigar held between his slender fingers as he narrowed his eyes, exhaling a long stream of smoke.
Suddenly, a female voice trailed over from next door. “Ah, it hurts…”
The woman’s voice was slightly hoa.r.s.e and coy from the alcohol. It was soft and tender, like a worm that wormed into and gnawed at his heart.
A man’s voice followed soon after. “The pain will go away quickly. Endure it for a while, I’ll be softer.”
Mu Sihan’s lips tugged into a sneer.
What was wrong with him to actually change his room to be beside hers? Was he asking for trouble?
He narrowed his black eyes, taking in more breaths of the cigarette!
…
In the adjacent room.
After Nan Zhi finished showering and wore her bathrobe, she accidentally fell when she was walking out and sc.r.a.ped her elbow. Feng Yao got her to sit down on the sofa before he helped clean her wound.
Feng Yao had never done such a thing, so he used a lot of strength.
“You still have to work tomorrow. If you can’t get up, I will deduct your payment!”
Nan Zhi glared at Feng Yao unhappily. “You’re indeed a businessman, you’re too mean.”
Feng Yao patted Nan Zhi’s head. “Alright, I’m done. Rest early, I’ll come and fetch you tomorrow.”
Nan Zhi nodded.
After Feng Yao left, Nan Zhi leaned against the sofa for a while, though she somehow fell asleep.
The air-conditioner was turned on in the room and she was merely wearing a bathrobe, which was why she startled awake from cold chill.
She sniffled, her limbs feeling slightly heavy.
She increased the temperature of the air-conditioner. Noting that the balcony door wasn’t closed, she walked there barefooted.
Just as she was about to close the door, a fiery red light was flickering from the adjacent balcony. She furrowed her eyebrows, walking out with fuzzy eyes.
A tall figure was leaning against the railing of the adjacent balcony.
Was she hallucinating?
If not, why did that figure look like Mu Sihan?
But then, why would he be in the room next to hers? Feng Yao clearly said that he was staying on a different floor.
Nan Zhi closed her eyes, before she looked away, turning around to return to her room.
Suddenly, the man turned around and glanced at her. His dark eyes landed on her, staring at her quietly.
Nan Zhi’s legs felt like they had been pinned down by nails.
Swallowing, she looked up to meet the man’s eyes.
His expression was slightly indifferent, his dark eyes as deep as an abyss with not an ounce of light. His lips were pursed slightly, his expression looking like a deity statue that did not have any emotions.
Nan Zhi lifted her hands unconsciously to touch her face.
She was not wearing the face veil.
He had already seen her, so there was no need for her to hide anymore.
Their eyes met. No one spoke first. His tall figure leaned against the railing, his expression sharp and cold as he exuded a dignified and cold aura, not letting people approach him.
Nan Zhi did not know how long had pa.s.sed, but she was about to give in to the pressure and run back to her room when the man’s low and magnetic voice disrupted the silence.
“Long time no see.”
