107 Admiring Him (1/2)

Liu Wei had already taken a shower and blown dried his hair. He had worn the same clothes as before to prevent Liling from finding out his plot the next morning.

He was about closing his laptop after he was done with work when he heard a slight knock on the door. He thought he misheard so he decided to ignore it since, it was just him and Liling in the main building and Liling had obviously retired for the night.

The knock came again but this time a bit louder. Liu Wei quickly placed the laptop in its original position and adjusted himself on the bed after which he said curtly.

”Come in”

The door opened and a petite figure with a very big pillow walked in. Liu Wei had a puzzled look on his face.

'What was she doing?'

”Mr Liu Wei, I figured that you could need some help at night so..., I'll stay here in case you need something. ”

” ”

Liu Wei was rendered speechless.

'When did Liling become so thoughtful? '

After sometime, he smiled and replied politely.

”It's very thoughtful of you, come in”

Liling smiled and closed the door behind her, she quickly walked to the large sofa and lay down facing away from him.

Liu Wei watched her every move, he felt an urge to tell her to come sleep on the bed since the sofa was not so soft and it may cause cramps even though it was large enough to contain her body but he stopped himself. He knew that no matter what he told her, she wouldn't share the same bed with him, so he struck out the idea.

Liling lay hugging her pillow tightly, for over ten minutes, she couldn't even fall asleep. Her thoughts kept drifting to the person on the bed.

The more she tried to catch some sleep, the more awake she became. She regretted not bringing her phone with her.
