Liu Wei drove Liling to City Hospital since it was nearer to the house. When they arrived, he made sure the doctors ran a thorough check up on her and even though they had said she was okay, Liu Wei still made them admit her for the night.Liling was placed in a VIP room given Liu Wei"s connections. Her bed was warm and cozy, she sat upright as she watched the nurses bandage her hand. When they were through, they left the room after adjusting the air conditioner.
Liu Wei sat on the sofa, his eyes fixated on his phone. Liling was on the bed, her eyes on the TV. The room would have been as quiet as a graveyard save for the noise coming from the television.
Liling wanted to sleep but since Liu Wei hadn"t said anything yet, she decided to continue watching the movie. It was an American romance movie, she wasn"t very interested in it since she hadn"t started it from the beginning but she kept on watching it since it served as a distraction to her. After sometime, Liu Wei kept his phone aside and joined her to watch the movie.
After some minutes into the movie, the woman, who was obviously the female lead, was a bit drunk started making seductive moves to the male lead; and in clear words which was loud enough for the occupants of the room to hear, she whispered.
"....kiss me like it"s your last kiss on earth... "
Liling gulped down hard as the male lead pushed her onto the bed and started kissing her wildly.
"Holy Mary!!, don"t, don"t do this now!!"
Liling screamed in her heart as the male lead started unb.u.t.toning the female lead "s blouse. A deep blush crept up on her cheeks as she stared dumbly at the screen. She made sure she didn"t move an inch to avoid mistakenly glancing at Liu Wei. The room was becoming stuffy by the second, she could feel her face turning red as the intense love scene continued.
Liu Wei didn"t show any change in his expression, as though the scene was just an action scene. He continued to stare at the television screen unperturbed as though there was nothing wrong with it.
Liling who was almost hot from embarra.s.sment couldn"t take it anymore, she immediately stretched her hand to take the remote controller and changed the channel.
She turned to look at Liu Wei for the first time and at that moment he turned to look at her too.
His gaze was intense, or rather her brain was creating the illusion that it was.
She quickly s.h.i.+fted her gaze from him and increased the volume of the television to reduce the awkward atmosphere.
When the love scene had started, Liu Wei thought that Liling would change the channel immediately so he wasn"t perturbed. Ordinarily, in these kind of situations, the woman would always change the channel but he was surprised the Liling didn"t even move an inch. It was not until the woman was nearly undressed that she had changed it.
On normal circ.u.mstances, these type of movies would not affect him but given that she was there, he had a hard time controlling his emotions, though on the surface it looked as though he was okay.
After sometime, he quietly stood up and walked towards the window and pretended to make a call, while in reality, he was calming his nerves. After about a few minutes, Liling sneezed and he turned to look at her, a little frown on his forehead.
"Are you feeling cold?, should I put it off? " Liu Wei asked, pointing at the air conditioner. Liling nodded and he walked to the AC and turned it off.
"Do you need anything else?" He asked again, Liling lifted her eyes to look at him, she smiled and replied.
"Thank you Mr Liu Wei, I"m okay,.... I"ll just get some sleep, ...goodnight."
She quickly adjusted herself on the bed and covered herself with the duvet closing her eyes tightly.
