Chapter 19 - His One-sided Love (II) (1/2)

What is going on?! Yan Xiaoran screamed inside her mind as she averted her eyes from that gentle and kind look that he was giving her.

This was the first time they met, right?​​

So, why was he acting like they knew each other?

'No, wait. Is this what they call love at first sight? Did he fall for me after seeing my face?'

Yan Xiaoran slapped herself awake from her delusions. What love at first sight? That kind of love only happens inside the TV screen and not in real life!

There was no way he would suddenly fall for her just after seeing her face.

Yan Xiaoran was confident with her beauty but compared to his good looks and refined manners, she would rather not be too full of herself and dig a grave for her to hide.

Besides, who knows what kind of evil intention does Alexander had prepared for her after ditching him without even notifying him. That gentle look on his face must be a facade he mastered to make her trust him and think he was kind to her, but in truth, he was already planning to send her back to prison.

Yan Xiaoran shuddered and gulped.

With her past experience with people who smiled and cared for her, only to find out in the end that they were only pretending to make her suffer, Yan Xiaoran raised up all her guards against Alexander.

Unfortunately, Alexander couldn't read her mind and thus, continued to smile at her. If he knew what she was thinking, he would be  stunned and tell her that it wasn't the case.

”Xiao Gui turn the AC off and turn the heater on.”

Yan Xiaoran turned her head to look at him but then a large shadow covered her sight and before she knew it, her shivering shoulders were covered by his suit jacket.

”Thank you.” Yan Xiaoran softly uttered as she let her body relax and wait for the heater to warm her cold body.

Alexander shook his head, ”You don't need to say thank you. We will be married in one of these days and this kind of activity will be normal between us.”

Once again, Yan Xiaoran couldn't reply to him as she continued to look at him with uncertainty and guilt which Alexander found confusing.

”Is something wrong with what I said?” Alexander asked her.

However, instead of an answer, Yan Xiaoran asked him an unexpected question, ”Your grandfather… He still hadn't told you?”

”Tell meat?”
