Chapter 271 - Open The Door (1/2)
Inside a Glass Villa situated in the distant islands of Amaranthine, Jun Zixuan sat on the barstool as he glanced at the bottle of wine in his hand. The moonlight shone on his face through the glass walls around him.
He raked his fingers through his hair, forbidding them from falling on his face but they were as stubborn as her.
Just the mention of her in his mind was enough to give him a flashback of all that happened.
The decoration on the terrace, the way she had her arms wrapped around Jun Zihao's waist, everything kept playing in his mind over and over again.
It was not the doubt inside his head.
He was sure about that. Neither was it his insecurity because he was sure about the kind of woman she was but everything about it felt wrong to him. Was he really that hard to trust?
'Crash'
He tossed the bottle as the glass crashed to pieces, the red liquid staining the floor. He stood up from the barstool and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling glass wall as he blankly stared at the moon.
Was it everything he deserved for the way he treated her in the beginning? For everything, he did to her, for all his cold remarks, and rude behavior, was this the punishment that she has decided for him? But he thought he made up for all his past mistakes.
He leaned his forehead on the glass. His heart ached. The feeling of it was so terrible like someone had clenched that damn organ in their fist.
The thought of her with another man…his eyes flashed with rage and he closed them.
”Hey, open the door. Where is the entrance? Why can't I find it?”
'Am I so screwed that I have started hallucinating her now?' He pursed his lips as he turned around before leaning back on the glass.
'Knock Knock'
”Even if you love glasshouse, shouldn't you leave a normal door here? How am I supposed to come inside?”
His eyes snapped open as he turned around to look at the woman who had her face pressed on the glass, eyes enlarged, nose tightly pressed on the glass, mouth forming a pout, she surely resembled a Disney character with a high degree of curiosity at the moment.
Her eyes lit up the moment he turned around, ''Is there a window I can climb inside from?” She blinked, ”Or this glass wall will crack to let me in, huh?”
His eyes flickered slightly as he glanced at her emotionlessly.
As he walked towards what looked like the living room, she sighed in relief. Looks like he is going to get the keys to open the door.
Contrary to her high expectations, the man picked up a remote control from the coffee table, and in the next second, the curtains slid down from the ceiling as they draped over the glass walls on all four sides.
Her jaws dropped as she stood there with her palms still pressed on the glass.
