An Feng had changed out of the dress she was wearing and into one of Helian Xiao’s s.h.i.+rts she had taken from the suitcase.
Since she was so pet.i.te, Helian Xiao’s s.h.i.+rt looked big and loose on her.
The s.h.i.+rt hem just covered her thighs. Her legs were slender and fully exposed outside, her skin so fair and smooth that it formed a sharp contrast with the black s.h.i.+rt, giving a strong visual impact.
An Feng did not know what was happening to her, but not long after talking with Nan Zhi, she felt a little hot.
Originally, she had gone to the bathroom to wash her face, but accidentally made her dress wet in the process. She could not find a bathrobe so she had no choice but to wear one of Helian Xiao’s s.h.i.+rts.
She counted the time. Helian Xiao said that his video conference would take one hour, so if she changed into his s.h.i.+rt and let her dress dry, it would be dried before he was done.
But after changing into his s.h.i.+rt, she did not find a hair dryer in the bathroom.
She wanted to come out and look for it in the room but she did not expect to see Helian Xiao the moment she opened the door.
An Feng felt like digging a hole and hiding inside!
It was too awkward and embarra.s.sing!
Looking at Helian Xiao’s well-defined facial features, An Feng’s heart was beating very fast. “I-I thought you wouldn’t be done so fast…”
Helian Xiao pursed his lips, not saying anything. The crease between his eyebrows were carved by time and enriched with experience. The strong masculine charm was encapsulated vividly by him.
Other than his family background and wealth, the most attractive thing was the man himself.
“Don’t misunderstand… I didn’t dress like this on purpose, my dress got wet…”
Hearing An Feng stuttering, Helian Xiao lifted his lips and gave a faint smile. His deep eyes under his finely arched eyebrows reflected An Feng’s red face.
An Feng could not stand the intense gaze of Helian Xiao and her body could not help but burn hot again. Raising her hand, she brushed away the strands of her hair, pretending to be calm. “Don’t look at me like this. I’m not lying… Since you’re done with your meeting, I’ll go back to my hotel first.”
Helian Xiao stood at the bathroom door, his tall body having no intention of moving aside.
Looking at An Feng’s flaming cheeks, he raised his eyebrows slightly. “Why is your face so red?”
An Feng raised her hands and used the back of her hands to cool her face. She shook her head. “I don’t know. I just feel hot.”
Her face was so red it looked slightly abnormal.
Helian Xiao touched her forehead. “You have a fever?”
There was a slight coolness in his hand and when he touched her skin, it was like a clear stream, which made her feel so comfortable that she wanted to sigh.
Suppressing the urge to bury her face into his hands, she said with a slightly hoa.r.s.e voice, “I’m fine. I’m just a little tired. I’ll go back first.”
She wanted to leave, but her wrist was grabbed by him. He looked at her with deep eyes. “Sleep here tonight.” He paused and then added, “I won’t touch you.”
An Feng felt that her face was getting hotter.
Was it because of him?
Helian Xiao pulled An Feng to the bed and covered her with the blanket. “If you’re tired, go to bed early. I’ll go and wash my face.”
An Feng looked at him entering the bathroom and there was a gentle look in her eyes.
A few minutes later, Helian Xiao came out from the bathroom. He had changed into loungewear and his usually neat hair appeared to be a bit messy, a wisp of hair falling over his forehead, making him seem effortlessly casual, yet handsome.
Under the orange wall lamp, there was a halo over his handsome face, with the charm of a mature man.
There was no doubt, when An Feng first saw Helian Xiao, she thought that he was a very charming man.
Nan Weiye and Senior Zhou Li were incomparable.
Helian Xiao glanced at An Feng and she quickly closed her eyes guiltily, afraid that he would find out that she was looking at him secretly. Heaven forbid that he knew what she was thinking!
Seeing her close her eyes, Helian Xiao was amused to see her turn her back towards him.
She was already not young, why was she still so innocent?
He lifted the blanket and sat by the bed. The two meter wide bed was separated by a distance.
They both lay on their respective edges of the bed.
Helian Xiao turned off the wall lamp. He looked sideways at the woman who was afraid to touch him and said somewhat helplessly, “You’re not asleep, right? Don’t worry, you can count on my words.”
An Feng hummed softly.
After the room turned dark, only the sounds of their light breathing could be heard.
Helian Xiao wanted to chat with An Feng, but she did not seem like she wanted to talk and only hummed in reply.
“Go to sleep if you’re tired.”
He also closed his eyes.
After ten minutes, Helian Xiao heard that An Feng was breathing a little fast and her breathing was irregular. He frowned and asked in a deep voice, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”
An Feng did not know what was wrong with herself. The heat in her body was coursing through her limbs and she felt so strange.
