179 What was the happiest moment of your life? (1/2)

They stood facing each other for almost five seconds before Liu Wei stepped aside for her to come into the room.

”I have over eight pillows on the bed, why did you get yours?”

He asked as she walked into the room and then shut the door behind her.

”Uh?, oh! I forgot.”

Liling bit her lower lip and gazed at the large comfy bed which was in front of her.

”You don't want to sleep? ”

Liu Wei asked when he saw her standing with her pillows infront of the bed.

”Oh!... ”

She immediately scurried over to the leftside of the bed and dropped her pillows, then sank into the bed. The bed was so large that it could contain five fat women but Liling lay at the farthest end of the bed. She hugged her pillows tightly and shut her eyes, though her mind was wide awake, as it monitored Liu Wei's movements around the room.

She felt his footsteps on the other side of the bed and after a few seconds, she felt that side deepen.

She waited for him to talk or do something but to her surprise, he did not do anything. He just lay there beside her quietly .

Liu Wei was not too close to her, but was not as dangerously close to the end of the bed as she was.

Almost a minute passed and there was no reaction from him, when she was almost relaxed that he was not going to do anything, she felt a pull on her waists.

Liu Wei pulled her to himself and held her tightly.

Liling was taken by surprise so she naturally yelped.

”It's very late, you should not be screaming. ”

Liu Wei murmured in the crook of her neck as though he did not do anything wrong. Liling felt her whole body start to heat up, she had never been this close to him before, he hugged her tightly with one hand and with the other hand, covered them both with the quilt.

”Your hair smells nice...”

Liling was almost turned into a pulp as she felt Liu Wei inhale her hair. She bit her lower lip and shut her eyes tightly, not uttering a word.

”Are you sleeping? ”

Liu Wei asked after a while, seeing that she was silent. Liling shook her head lightly.

”You want to sleep now?”

”No, I'm not feeling sleepy.”

Liling finally said something. She felt Liu Wei pull her closer to him and kiss her hair, making her squirm internally.

There was silence for a while, before Liu Wei spoke up again.

”I'm going on a business trip next week.”

Liling's eyes immediately flung open as she heard his words. She turned around, so that she was facing him and he was staring at her face.

”When? when are you going? how many days will you be staying? when are you coming back? ”

She asked extremely surprised. Her forehead bore a frown, signifying that she was not happy about it.

Liu Wei chuckled and pulled her closer, pecking her on the forehead;

”You miss me already? ”

”Not really, it's just that, I'm not used to you being away. You've never been away, actually.”
