Chapter 341 - Hug(unedited) (1/2)
The question was asked but there was no response from Han Jian Yu.
''It was pretty good,'' He said after a long time, without mentioning anything more.
Mia walked towards him looking into his eyes deeply.
For a split second, Han Jian Yu felt like there was something more to her gaze that he could not comprehend. He has always been good at judging people, their thought processes from their faces. Being in politics had honed that skill of his but this lady in front of him was... unreadable.
And unpredictable.
He added in his heart when Mia hugged him. One of her hands had settled on his muscular waist while the other went to wrap itself around his neck. ''That's great,'' She whispered.
'Thump'
He heard it loud and clear as his heart skipped a beat. And he wonder if she heard it too.
He slowly raised his hand and moved it towards her back but she pulled back from him at this moment.
''I-It's late. I should leave,'' Mia cleared her throat, turned around, and walked away.
Han Jian Yu glanced at her retreating back and his eyes slowly darkened.
That night, Han Jian Yu laid in his bed, facing the ceiling as he glanced at the stars through the ceilings, something he never had the leisure or interest to do. Something intense swirled inside his usually nonchalant dark eyes.
In the other house, Mia also laid on the bed as she faced the ceiling. The stars looked especially beautiful today. The moon looked gorgeous. Han Jian Yu smelled so nice...
She covered her eyes with the back of her palm.
Even though she gave her word to Yu Mei that she would never do it, but still when Han Jian Yu looked so lost, she gave in to her heart and peeked into his thoughts. She had asked him about his childhood because before she contracted Mei, she had no idea of what he was like.
Not that she was not aware of his existence but she had never paid attention to him. As a fox spirit who was trapped in the Han Family house, she had not been interested in anything.
But when he casually said that his childhood was good, she could not restrain herself from hugging him.
She hurriedly shook her head, ''He just has to have the looks that melt me all the time,'' Mia pushed herself out of the bed as she walked out of the room.
She descended the stairs and walked towards the dining table before picking up the glass of water, wanting to divert her attention.
Lately, she has not been using her powers as she tried to live like a human. And she found it interesting. She also found her neighbor interesting.
Damn! Here it goes again. Mia was one step away from slapping herself. This man was such a curse. He was living rent-free in her head lately.
Taking a few gulps of water, she placed the glass aside and took a seat, and placed her legs on the dining table.
Hearing some sounds from the other side, she tilted her head. And her eyes met with a pair of deep-set of eyes.
Han Jian Yu was sitting there on his couch, looking at her quietly.
She wondered if she should say 'Hello, what's up?' or 'You should go to bed. It is not good for your health to not sleep till now' or 'Why are you awake?'
All three phrases sounded weird inside her heart. The first one was very stiff.
