Chapter 151 - An eye for an eye, a heart for a heart (1/2)

Yuerui's sudden kiss made Xianwang unprepared. His eyes were wide opened.

After the kiss which lasted for few seconds Yuerui let him go.

Xianwang slowly retracted his face.

He was about to say something. But he stopped.

He saw that Yuerui's lips were trembling. Not only that her hands were shaking as well. She was trying so hard to stop them from shaking but couldn't stop them.

Xianwang turned his gaze and saw Han Yefang standing with a dark expression.

He understood the rest.

He looked at Yuerui with caring eyes. The corner of his lips curved a little.

He gently held her trembling hands with one hand and hugged her with another.

”Why are you kissing me suddenly? Did you miss me that much?” He intentionally said that out loud and patteder shoulder softly.

Then he removed her from his embrace and looked at her with immense care.

Yuerui gave a confused look to him but Xianwang's gentle eyes comforted her and ensured her not to worry.

”You know what? You don't have to drive alone. I'll drop you home.” Saying so he removed his coat and wrapped her around with it.

”It's cold. I don't want you to get any fever. Let's go.”

Yuerui didn't say anything. She didn't even look at Han Yefang who was still watching them and followed Xianwang obediently.

Xianwang opened the passenger seat for her. He told his driver to go home and went for the driver seat.

He doesn't want Yuerui to feel uncomfortable.

After that, he started the car and left.

--------

For a long time, the atmosphere inside the car remained quiet. They didn't say anything. Yuerui kept looking outside through the window and Xianwang was focused on his driving.

Only the sound of their breathing could be heard.

To break this awkwardness Xianwang took the initiative.

”Well....” But he was cut in the middle.

”Can.... We.... talk tomorrow...” Yuerui said hesitantly.

”Oh... Okay. We can talk tomorrow.” Xianwang immediately agreed.

The car again went in silence.

There were a lot of traffic. So it took a while to reach Yuerui's house.

After they reached, Yuerui still didn't say anything to him. She just nodded to him and left. She didn't even look behind to say good night or good bye.

Xianwang sighed.

He leaned on his seat and looked at her back until it disappeared in the dark.

He subconsciously touched his cheek where Yuerui kissed him and gave a huge grin.

”Her first kiss.” His lips curved into a smile.

Yuerui took small steps to reach her apartment. She was very tired. She took off her glasses and sighed. She reached for the doorbell slowly and rang a few times. After a few seconds Ning tan opened the door.

”Rui rui, what happened to you?” Ning got scared when she saw that Yuerui's eyes had turned red. She was scared that, that Han Yefang must hurt her again.

She was partially right. Yuerui indeed wanted to cry. But she held it. She kept on rubbing her eyes so that no one can see the few drops of tears that fell from her eyes no matter how much she tried to hold.

”Rui rui, tell me what happened?”

Yuerui looked at her friend and gave a smile. She put away the things she was holding and went to the washroom.

Her smile was not normal and Ning tan knew that. She kept waiting until Yuerui was ready to share her worries. So to cheer her friend, Ning tan cooked Yuerui's favorite dishes.

By the time Yuerui came out of the washroom her bed was filled with her favorite dishes.

”Why did you cook so much?”

”I know you are hungry.” Ning tan replied.

”There were food at the party.”

”I know. But I also know you didn't eat much.”
