Bernice looked past An Feng, glaring at the man who was reading newspapers slightly. “He’s always been like this since young, so boring!”

An Feng froze slightly.

He was like this since young? Were they childhood sweethearts?

An Feng couldn’t help but feel slightly humiliated and angry. If he met Bernice after her, she would still think that he was a responsible man.

However, he had a childhood sweetheart and even said those things to her and did those intimate actions to her. Now, she thought that he was an a**hole! The worst kind!

Bernice glanced at An Feng, her smile widening. “However, he wasn’t interested in me in the past. He only accepted my… pursuit recently.”

An Feng hummed, stating her understanding.

Not wanting to speak too much about Helian Xiao with his new love, An Feng ended the conversation politely with Bernice before she took her earphones and turned on a movie. She leaned back on the seat, staring at the screen intently but her mind was a mess.

As she watched the movie, An Feng suddenly felt someone staring at her.

An Feng looked up slightly, freezing when she met Helian Xiao’s depthless eyes.

Why was he staring at her like this?

By the time An Feng looked back down and realized that the movie was playing a scene of the protagonist couple kissing pa.s.sionately in the bathroom, An Feng’s ears heated up.

She hurriedly turned off the movie.

When she turned slightly to look at the man, he wasn’t looking at her anymore.

He had worn an eye mask, lowered his chair and lay down.

An Feng’s heart was beating rather quickly, that undeniable flutter in her heart appearing once more.

She never had a proper relations.h.i.+p, her relations.h.i.+p history easily countable with one hand. Although she was already a grandma, she wasn’t as clear and knowledgeable about relations.h.i.+ps as her Zhizhi.

She didn’t know if that fluttering was because of her feelings or if it was purely stirred by his masculine hormones.

Many years ago, her heart had fluttered for a senior she never confessed to. However, those feelings had faded later and now, she was merely sitting beside a mature man, but a gaze from him was enough to make her feel that fluttering once more. However, this man had already let go of her and had a new girlfriend.

Sorrow sprouted in An Feng’s heart. Why was she only able to make a mess of her life?

…

In the four to five hours of the flight, An Feng never spoke to the man again.

It was rather quiet in the first-cla.s.s section. Someone had fallen asleep behind them, snores sounding from time to time. An Feng glanced at the woman beside her, she had also worn an eye mask and gone to sleep.

In the dimmed light, it seemed like An Feng was the only one who was still awake.

An Feng lowered her chair slightly. She originally had her back facing the man. However, she didn’t know what she was thinking, having looked down to glance at Helian Xiao unconsciously.

Ever since she met him, she had rarely stared at him in so much detail. Every time he was awake, his eyes would appear extremely deep. She didn’t dare to look at him for a long time.

The eye mask had covered his eyes. Under his well-defined nose, his lips were pursed slightly. His facial features were so well-defined. No matter if he was awake or asleep, he still looked extremely elegant and dignified.

He was laying down quietly, looking extremely exquisite from head to toe.

When she realized she was acting like a stalker that was stalking another woman’s man, she felt even more embarra.s.sed and awkward.

Looking away, she turned her head and forced herself to calm down to rest.

She didn’t know how she fell asleep, so she didn’t know that not too long after she had turned her head, the man beside her had taken off his eye mask.

He sat up, staring at her quietly.

Her sleeping face was quiet and pretty, like the beautiful night when all the commotion and brightness had been removed. She was quiet, pure and clean.

…

An Feng only woke up to the air stewardess’ sweet voice telling them that they were about to arrive at their destination.
