Chapter 341 - Hug(unedited) (2/2)

And the rest... Other than her father, she had never said such caring words to any male.

'Knock Knock'

Mia snapped out of her daze hearing the sound of the constant knocks on the door.

Her gaze instinctively went towards the glass partition and the couch was empty.

She walked towards the entrance and opened the door, ''You aren't sleeping yet?” She asked him.

''I am standing here in front of your door. So, you tell me, am I sleeping?” He asked her.

''No...'' Mia whispered, ''Do you want to come in?”

He raised an eyebrow but did not say anything when she stepped aside to let him in. He stepped inside before walking towards the dining table, ''Why are you not sleeping yet?' He asked, his tone was low and she caught his words before they dispersed in the air.

''I had a few things on my mind,'' She replied.

''Oh,'' He nodded.

Then, the room went silent again. there was a stiffness between them that did not exist before and one could sense the tension inside the room.

''Can I drink this?” He pointed his chin towards the water.

She nodded, 'Sure.''

He picked up the glass before gulping down the entire content in three big gulps. His Adam's Apple bobbed up and down slowly, while his skin seemed to be a little pale under the glow of the moonlight.

A thin trail of water oozed from the corner of his mouth as it moved towards his chin. She could see his tanned, muscular chest through the black satin robe that he had donned.

Mia realized that he drank from the same glass as her. Back in ancient times, this was considered very intimate and was only done between husband and wife. In the current times, this is also considered as an indirect kiss between a couple.

'These facts are all exaggerated,' She thought to herself.

''It's quite late. You should go to sleep,'' She said when he placed the glass on the table.

Han Jian Yu looked into her hazel eyes with a deep gaze. He stepped towards her and she took a step back from him.

He took another few steps towards her and she kept retreating.

Mia averted her gaze.

''Alright,'' He said as he took a step back from her and walked towards the door.

She followed after him, ''Mm,'' was all she could utter.

As he walked out of the door, she nodded at him, ''Good Night,'' she said.

''Good Night,'' He glanced at her.

Mia moved her hand to the doorknob to close the door and just as the gap between the wall and the door was almost closed, a hand pressed on the gap preventing the door from moving further.
