The moment Mubai returned to the small villa, he received news of Xinghe's recovery . The first time the maid informed him, he thought he was dreaming . After a second confirmation from the maid, he finally believed that Xia Xinghe had really awakened!
He quickly dashed to meet her, there was a natural spring in his step . As he got closer to Xinghe's room, his heart beat quickened . It had been a long time since he felt so nervous…
He felt like a kid going to meet his crush .
He pushed open the room door and when he saw Xinghe sitting quietly in front of the computer, he released the breath that he didn't realize he was holding . He stared intensely at her, not willing to avert his eyes as he stepped closer to her . It was as if he was afraid she might disappear in front of his eyes if he didn't pay absolute attention .
Xinghe heard his approaching footsteps . She lifted her head and looked straight at him . "Thank you for everything . "
AdvertisementXinghe knew that without asking that it was him who had been taking care of her when she was unconscious . She was not good with expressing her emotions but she would take note whenever someone was nice towards her . She realized he had been lending his aid whenever things got slightly out of hand, she was appreciative of that . Even during this recent predicament, he helped her unconditionally, without asking for anything in return .
Her previous prejudice against him had completely disappeared . In fact, she was starting to warm to him . If he needed any help in the future, she would return the favor .
"Xia Xinghe…" Mubai called her name gently as he stared, enraptured by her .
"Yes?" Xinghe asked him in return .
"Xia Xinghe…" he repeated as a big smile bloomed on his face, his pupils were even shaking . "It really is you . "
Xinghe looked carefully at him and confirmed, "Yes, it is me . "
Mubai suddenly leaned forward and his fiery lips touched hers without warning! Xinghe widened her eyes in surprise—
She didn't expect such a response from him . When she realized what had happened, she tried to evade but Mubai's hands had her gripped in a tight lock .
His lips pressed down hard and they burned with irrepressible passion…
When his tongue got some stray ideas, Xinghe finally shoved him forcefully away . Her face was a mixture of shock, disbelief, and bewilderment .
Mubai was panting slightly, his gaze blazing with insuppressible emotion . Like a scorching flame, he seemed to be melting her within his gaze .
His heart jumped violently, the sudden kiss boiling his blood .
Even a distance away, Xinghe could hear his beating heart . She felt curious, why was he so nervous when she was the one being taken advantage of?
The two stared at each other wordlessly for two seconds . Mubai leaned in for another kiss but Xinghe averted her face and locked eyes on the computer screen instead .
"It's good that you're here . See whether you recognize the person," she said in a calm voice as if nothing had happened .
