The warmth of the man's palm was transmitted to her body through her clothes, making her feel as if her arm was being burned.
When he spoke, he deliberately lowered his head. Their faces were no more than ten centimeters apart, and the unique scent of his hormones lingered at the tip of her nose.
His pitch-black eyes stared at her as if there were thousands of stars twinkling in them.
His gaze burned her, and Ning Meng did not dare to look at him directly. Her little heart was beating wildly, and she opened her mouth to say, "Why?"
The temperature in the air seemed to have risen, and there was an ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them.
Huo Beichen looked at her pretending to be calm, and his eyelids slightly drooped. "Without you … I'm not used to it."
Ning Meng's body froze. She felt that these words were like a confession to her.
She sneaked a glance at him and continued to ask, "Why not?"
Huo Beichen was speechless.
His eyes slightly darkened as he looked at the girl's insatiable look. The corner of his lips slightly raised, and he slowly replied, "Xiao Tiantian is very grumpy."
Ning Meng was puzzled.
"It misses you."
Ning Meng was speechless.
So, it was because Xiao Tiantian was not used to it?
Couldn't he just say that Xiao Tiantian missed her? Why did he have to make it so ambiguous?! She had thought that …
Wait, why had she thought that? It could not be that this cold-blooded and heartless man would not be used to it, right?
This thought made her slightly stunned, and her whole body became a little uneasy.
"Hmm?"
The man said in a low voice, and the ending sound was slightly raised, as if there was something invisible teasing her heart for a moment.
Ning Meng came back to her senses and said in a panic, "I … I'll think about it."
Huo Beichen did not continue this topic and retracted his hand. He was holding his jacket with one hand, and the other hand was hanging by his side. His casual movement was elegant and reserved.
He faintly said, "I'll be away for three days tonight. The villa's password has not changed, so I'll entrust Xiao Tiantian to you. "
Ning Meng nodded. "Oh, okay."
The man then turned around and walked toward the entrance of the elevator.
He seemed to have sensed something and suddenly turned his head … Ning Meng was so scared that she slammed the door shut.
She leaned on the door and tiptoed to open the peephole to peek outside. The man was waiting for the elevator, one hand casually in his pocket.
"Ding", the elevator arrived.
Huo Beichen did not enter the room immediately. Instead, he tilted his head and looked in her direction. A complicated emotion flashed through his ink-black eyes.
Before Ning Meng could figure out what it was, the man retracted his gaze and entered the elevator, disappearing from her sight.
Ning Meng stood still for a long time.
She pressed her beating heart.
She didn't know why, but a sweet feeling welled up in her heart.
The hug he gave her when he came back from a business trip, and the breakfast he came over that morning …
She probably didn't think too much about it. After all, this person had gone on so many business trips in the past. Why did he only entrust Xiao Tiantian to her this time?
Ning Meng went upstairs and threw herself on the bed.
She suddenly covered her face with the quilt and pressed down on the corner of her lips.
The next day, Ning Meng packed a few things and went to the villa area.
As soon as Ning Meng opened the door, Xiao Tiantian pounced on her. The crystal pendant on its neck swayed back and forth as it circled around Ning Meng excitedly.
Ning Meng went upstairs to put the things down.
Then, he fed Little Tiantian and played with it for a while before leaving.
