Chapter 529 - Verify Her Feelings (1/2)

Rui was drunk, but was still in his right mind and conscious state when he pulled Cali on the bed. He sighed with relief when he felt Cali was already sleeping in his arms.

It had been so long since he cuddled her like this, this closeness had been a distant dream to him ever since she lost her memories. His ways could be cunning for tricking her to be with him like this, but this was the only way for him to be able to hug her like he used to.

He buried himself in her warmth and inhaled her scent deeply because he did not know when he would be able to again do that, and somehow he dozed off to sleep with a smile on his face.

Cali woke up early that morning and felt a weight on her waist. Her eyes rounded as she recalled what happened last night.

She silently scolded herself at the thought of how she could sleep heavily on Rui's bed and in his embrace.

She carefully and quietly removed Rui's arm from her waist and quickly got up from his bed and rushed outside.

Her heart was thumping loudly as she leaned on the wall outside his room calming her heartbeats, thankful that Rui did not wake up that time. It would be too awkward if he woke up with her on his bed.

”He might even accuse me of crawling into his bed…” she complained. The sun was about to rise soon, so Cali quickly got ready and went into the kitchen.

She planned to cook something for Rui since she was sure that man would have a hangover, seeing the number of empty cans of beer strewn around in the bar.

After some time, Cali finished preparing breakfast and saw Rui enter the kitchen.

”Good morning…” Rui greeted as he massaged his throbbing temple.

He felt his head would burst with pain but still a smile curved up on his face because he could still feel Cali's warmth and smell her scent all over his body. He did not even want to take a bath and wished her fragrance could linger on him for days to come.

”I'm done here and will soon serve the food. Go sit in the dining area,” she instructed.

”Why did you drink so much? You were reeking of alcohol last night. Here drink this soup so you will feel better and drink this medicine after you eat.” Cali continued with a scolding tone while she served him the food.

Then she sat on her chair and creased her forehead, seeing Rui was grinning stupidly as he looked at her.

”And what's funny?” she mumbled, wondering why he looked so happy.

”Oh, I'm just happy you thought of me like this, sweetheart. Maybe I should drink often and let you take care of me for the rest of my life,” he whispered with a smile.
