Hearing Annie’s answer, Ye Sijue’s expression changed slightly and he took a deep breath.
Although he had expected her answer, he still felt an aching in his heart.
From her tone, he could tell that the answer was already meaningless.
Annie didn’t dare to look into his eyes through the mirror. She looked down, and she said gloomily, “Can you leave? I have to change my clothes.”
Ye Sijue’s throat rolled up and down, and his gaze fell upon her bare, fair shoulders.
They reminded him of the first time they met, in the hotel room, on the bed.
At that time, they almost did “that.”
Ye Sijue stepped forward and he wrapped his arms around her pet.i.te figure.
“Really? Is it really impossible for us to go back?” he asked in a husky voice.
He knew that she liked him and he liked her. They both liked each other. Why wouldn’t she be brave for him and refuse the engagement?
His body temperature warmed her.
She realized how much she missed her time in China.
It was only a few days ago but why did she feel as if it were a lifetime ago?
“I’m sorry…” she had no choice but to answer him that way.
Ye Sijue’s face closed in to her cheek and he couldn’t help but kiss her beside her ear.
If she wasn’t facing away from him, he would have kissed her on the lips.
However, he no longer had the right to do that.
There was a voice telling him that she was someone else’s woman now and he needed to let go of her.
But he couldn’t let go of her.
He was very selfish and wanted to take her away so that she would have no choice but to stay by his side. He had to have her.
Ye Sijue had never felt such a strong desire to possess anything since he was a child.
Annie felt that their position wasn’t very appropriate, so she opened her hands and tried to break free from him.
However, he used more force and held her tighter instead.
“Ye Sijue…” she said.
The sound of footsteps alerted Ye Sijue. Ye Sijue could tell that the sound was coming towards them. Perhaps it was a maid.
He hesitated for a moment and finally let go of her.
However, Annie didn’t feel relieved. Instead, she felt a dull ache in her heart.
“Annie,” said a familiar voice.
Annie and Ye Sijue looked up at the same time. They saw Mu Xiaoxiao coming in.
Mu Xiaoxiao caught onto the mood and she looked at them, embarra.s.sed.
“You two… Ye Sijue, why are you here?”
“I have something to say to Xiaomeng,” Ye Sijue explained tepidly. Then he looked at Annie’s face again.
Mu Xiaoxiao realized that she was interrupting them and she prepared to leave. “Oh, you two talk, then. I’ll…”
“Xiaoxiao!” Annie called her and stood up, her little hand grasping her dress as she stopped her from leaving.
“Don’t leave. I was just going to look for you. Can you help me check this dress?”
“Ah?” Mu Xiaoxiao was startled and she instinctively glanced at Ye Sijue. Sure enough, he didn’t look happy.
Annie seemed as though she really didn’t want her to leave and she went over to grab Xiaoxiao’s hand. Sounding like a child, she pleaded with her. “Xiaoxiao, stay with me, alright?”
