129 An Improvement... (2/2)
He looked worn out and as though he hadn't eaten for days. It was obvious he had been standing for a while because he was leaning slightly on his car, his head a little bent low.
As soon as he saw her, he quickly stood upright. His lips fluttered but no words came out.
Xin Yong paused in her tracks when she saw him, she couldn't think properly as a rush of emotions flooded her mind. Her first impulse was to rush to him, hug him tightly and tell him that it was okay.
But she stopped herself.
Pretending as though she had seen nothing, she turned immediately and walked back into her compound, not forgetting to lock the gate behind her.
That day, Jin Yue had stood outside for almost the whole day. She often checked through her window to know if he was still there and until twelve midnight, he was still there, leaning against his car door!.
But she held herself...
Why? she needed to know if he really loved her and to be sure that he wasn't going to abandon her later on and also, she wanted to retain her pride. She wasn't going to jump back into him arms, just like that!
Seeing that he was not going to leave and it was getting very late, she picked up her phone and after much contemplation, she decided to send him a text.
'Go home, it's late... '
Jin Yue who was extremely tired and was already feeling muscle cramps on his legs quickly stood upright when his phone which he had been staring at for a while lit up.
'Sweet... 'Go home, it's late. '
Jin Yue read the text over and over and over again. He couldn't believe that she actually sent him a text!
She sent him a text!
That means... she would forgive him right?
that means that she was no longer annoyed right?
Jin Yue totally forgot about the pain and hunger he had been feeling since morning, a slight smile appeared on his lips and he immediately looked towards her room.
At that moment, he saw her light go off, signifying that she was about to sleep.
He was so overjoyed that he quickly entered his car and drove off, obeying her commands.
