Volume 1 Chapter 249 Strolling Together (2/2)
”Okay, let me feed you then,” Mo Yuan agreed. He helped her to sit on a chair. Then, he dragged another chair beside her and sat there.
While he fed her, he lectured her, ”You are so skinny and you have no strength. You have to eat a lot from now on. No diet from now on. How can you study and work when you are so weak?”
'I'm not weak! It's you who are making me like this!' Han Luo wanted to protest but no word came out.
He was so close to her. It made her nervous. Her face heated up and her heart was racing. She couldn't taste the delicious food no matter how hard she tried to concentrate on the smokey fried salmon.
Later, Mo Yuan wiped her mouth and carried her to the bedroom. When he was about to place her on the bed, Han Luo hurriedly said, ”I don't want to go to bed.”
Mo Yuan paused and questioned her, ”What do you want to do then? You need some rest. Take a nap. I'll wake you when dad arrives.”
”No, I want to sit on the rocking chair,” she pointed at the wooden rocking chair that was kept in the balcony.
”All right then,” Mo Yuan took her to the balcony.
Han Luo finally relaxed her body thinking she would be able to calm her heart now but her wish as just a wish.
Mo Yuan sat on the chair and put her on his lap. He placed her in a comfortable position and slowly rocked the chair. His fingers played with hair and brushed over her soft, supple cheek.
”” Han Luo didn't have a clue about how to react.
She avoided going to bed because she didn't want to sleep in the same bed with him. Her heart couldn't take that blow.
If they were going to sit intimately on the rocking chair, wouldn't it be better to sleep on the bed?
At least they would have some space between them.
Mo Yuan wasn't used to her quietness. For some reason it made him feel empty. He cupped her face with his right hand and peck on her forehead.
He noticed that Han Luo's body trembled when he kissed her. He helplessly asked, ”Ah Luo, what's wrong? Why aren't you talking? Are you upset about anything I did? Or is it that you didn't like this commercial?”
Han Luo felt guilty that she made him worried because of her selfishness.
She took a deep breath and hugged his neck. She buried her head on his broad chest and responded with a soft voice, ”No, big brother Yuan did nothing wrong. I cannot explain it to you now. I don't know what's wrong with me either. Big brother Yuan, hold me tightly, all right?”
”Okay, I will hold you tightly,” Mo Yuan whispered. He enfolded her closely in his arms.
The chair kept rocking. With his warmth and his fingers going through her hair, Han Luo's eyelids became heavy and without her knowing, she drifted to dreamland.
Mo Yuan noticed after some time that she fell asleep. He gazed at her warmly.
He couldn't get enough of her cuteness, sweetness, and spiciness. She was too dear to him.
'How am I going to live without your presence?' he wondered thoughtfully.
