Chapter 193: The Second “Date” (4)
Li Xingchen heard Ye Tianxin’s voice over the phone and immediately understood what had happened. She smiled and said, “Go and do your thing. Let’s talk again when we have time.”
“Tianxin, have you woken up?”
Ye Tianxin poked out her tongue mischievously. “I fell asleep unconsciously. Elder Brother Li, what shall we eat tonight?”
“I’ll make a call and get them to bring us food.”
Ye Tianxin nodded. “Then I shall go and wash my face.”
Ye Tianxin walked into the bathroom and looked at her reflection in the mirror. Her face appeared young and lively, and there was a faint blush on her cheeks that was unique to young girls.
She turned the tap and submerged her hand in the running water. When she thought of how Li Qingcang had carried her earlier, she could feel her heart beating and her blood flowing through her veins.
She liked him very much.
She liked him very much.
However, she had to do her best to stop herself from revealing it to him. If possible, she must forget about it.
She was very greedy.
She truly was a greedy girl.
Ye Tianxin washed her face with water and then reached out for a towel. As soon as she was done, she headed to the suite’s living area.
Li Qingcang was making a phone call on the balcony. He was wearing a simple polo s.h.i.+rt and his hands were on the rails of the balcony.
Her heart beat wildly at the sight of Li Qingcang.
Ye Tianxin took out a notebook and a pencil and began to draw Li Qingcang’s back on a draft paper.
She was especially focused on drawing that she did not notice Li Qingcang approaching.
“Tianxin, what are you doing?”
Li Qingcang stood behind Ye Tianxin. Ye Tianxin was surprised, and she immediately put the notebook away. Her cheeks blushed, and she answered softly, “I…I wasn’t doing anything.”
“Let me see.”
Li Qingcang stretched out his hand.
Ye Tianxin was too embarra.s.sed to show Li Qingcang her drawing. She hid the notebook behind her back.
“No, I’m bad at drawing.”
“I’ll just take a look at it.”
Ye Tianxin stood up. Her eyes were warm and bright. She must not let Li Qingcang know that she liked him.
She was afraid.
She was afraid that he would stay away from her. She could not bear the thought.
“Elder Brother Li, this is a secret.”
The light made Li Qingcang’s shadow very long.
Ye Tianxin lowered her head and looked at his shadow.
“I’ll tell you someday.”
Li Qingcang pretended to be sad by what Ye Tianxin had said. “Our little Tianxin has secrets now.”
“…”
Ye Tianxin held the notebook tightly. She stood up and laid the notebook on the table silently.
Li Qingcang did not really want to see Ye Tianxin’s drawing. He had only wanted to tease her.
It was because Ye Tianxin was simply adorable when she was shy. In fact, too adorable that he wanted to hug her and tousle her hair gently.
The doorbell rang.
Li Qingcang opened the door. The manager of the housekeeping department led a waiter in, who laid down the food on the dining table.
“Bon appét.i.t.”
Everyone else left the room, and Ye Tianxin sat down at the dining table.
Li Qingcang ordered the hotel’s kitchen to prepare a healthy meal for Ye Tianxin.
“I hope you’re hungry,” Li Qingcang told Ye Tianxin.
Ye Tianxin glanced at their reflection on the dining room’s gla.s.s panel. Under the light, their shadows were right next to each other.
“Elder Brother Li, thank you. You don’t have to drive back today, do you?”
Li Qingcang answered, “I won’t be going back tonight.”
He wouldn’t be going back…
Ye Tianxin was a little nervous. Did that mean that they were going to spend the night in the same room?
