Chapter 1011 - Jealous (2/2)
But An Feng was embarra.s.sed and uncomfortable.
She wanted to pull her foot back, but he held it tightly. His long eyelashes were slightly lowered, making his handsome face seem stable and focused, as if he were doing something very serious.
But wouldn’t Bernice be jealous with him being like this?
“Mr Helian, thank you for your kindness, but I don’t need you to do this for me.” An Feng pulled back her foot forcefully and this time, he did not hold her tightly.
He stood up and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.
An Feng was about to pick up the gift from the bed and leave, but the man’s action was faster than her.
Grabbing onto her wrist, he threw her onto the bed with no expression on his face.
As he stood by the bed, he leaned over and pinched her chin with his long fingers. There seemed to be some emotions surging in his dark eyes. “Do you have anything to say to me?”
Looking at the man with his sullen eyes, An Feng furrowed her eyebrows.
She did not understand why he would ask her that.
Did she have to accept him rubbing her ankles so intimately when he was with Bernice?
Perhaps to him, it was not intimate, but he looked after her because of Zhizhi. But she could not take it in her stride!
The room’s temperature was comfortable, but the coldness coming out from the man made An Feng s.h.i.+ver.
“Say something!” He narrowed his eyes, seeming to be more powerful.
His face came close to her and the sense of danger and coldness made her pupils shrink. “What do you want me to say?”
“Say that you want me to be with Bernice and want to see me getting married with her.”
An Feng’s breathing tightened.
She did not want to…
Why would he want her to say something like this?
She did not feel good seeing them together. It felt like her chest was being grabbed tightly by an invisible black hand, making her unable to breathe.
She had never really been in love and did not know what it was like to love someone.
All she knew was that she was starting to care and like this man.
But it was already too late. Since he was together with Bernice now, she would not step in. She had been alone all these years. Perhaps her feelings for him would fade if she was given time.
An Feng did not dare to meet his deep eyes for too long and she turned her face away, saying, “You two are a good match.”
Helian Xiao’s eyes turned dark, and the corners of his lips lifted into a mocking smile.
In the end, he let go of her and let her leave the villa without another word.
An Feng was shocked by the look he gave her. She did not know why he would show such a look, as if his heart had turned completely cold.
But she felt that she had said nothing wrong!
After he released her, An Feng left in a hurry. She only realized that she had left the gift on his bed when she was out of the villa.
But she had no courage to go back in.
Her clothes were soaked when she fell into the pool earlier and it was uncomfortable the way it was clinging to her skin. No matter what, she had to go back to take a bath and change her clothes.
…
Not long after An Feng left the villa, Bernice came back.
Pus.h.i.+ng open the bedroom door, she saw the man who was smoking in front of the French windows. Walking over, she blew at the faint smoke that was lingering in the air and held his arm affectionately. “Darling, why did you let her leave? I thought you’d do her directly!”
