After watching a movie, Rong Dai was amazed. She did not expect life in this world to be so interesting. Everything here aroused her curiosity and felt novel to her.
The unease in her heart after being reborn gradually disappeared, filling her with anticipation for the future.
Even if she could not be loved again, even if this was the punishnt given to her by the heavens, she would still live her life well.
The sense of loss in her heart also dissipated along with the ending of the movie. If one day she had the courage to confess to Huo Shao Ting and could obtain his love, that would of course be best.
If not, she would not have lived this life in vain. How many people could have an experience like hers?
She should not be so worried and anxious. Since she and Huo Shao Ting did not have a chance together, she should not dwell on the uncertainties of the future, but cherish the present instead.
There might be so things she would regret not doing in the future, but she was sure she would have no regrets.
If her relationship with Huo Shao Ting was just a shallow connection, she was willing to enjoy it.
Her heart suddenly felt much more open. As the credits rolled on the screen, she turned to look at the man beside her, feeling a genuine thrill in her heart. The sense of fulfillnt was also real.
Her palms were slightly sweaty. After taking a deep breath, she suddenly leaned over and kissed Huo Shao Ting lightly on the cheek, whispering softly, “Thank you, Shao Ting. I’m glad I got to know you.”
Rong Dai did not expect herself to be so bold, but in that mont she just wanted to follow her heart.
Before Huo Shao Ting could react, the lights in the theater ca on.
Rong Dai was burning hot all over. Not daring to look at Huo Shao Ting, she fled the theater as if escaping.
Huo Shao Ting was stunned in his seat, his heartbeat getting faster and breathing more rapid. His cheek seed to retain the mory, repeating the soft touch over and over.
When he ca to his senses, Rong Dai had already left the theater. She stood outside waiting for him, her heart both sweet and panicking.
Huo Shao Ting's eyes were deep, with a hint of a smile at the corner of his lips. He imdiately got up and strode out.
As soon as he exited the theater, their eyes t as if they could sense each other.
Rong Dai's heart thumped wildly. Hurriedly lowering her head to look at her toes, two alluring red clouds appeared on her cheeks.
Huo Shao Ting could see her tension and shyness. With his sexy lips pressed together, the delight in his heart was sothing he had not felt for a very long ti.
He strode over and picked her up in his arms without a word, gazing down at her as he said gently but with a hint of pampering, "Your foot is still injured. Don't run around like this."
Rong Dai was so ashad she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She could clearly feel Huo Shao Ting's breath on her face, and hear his powerful heartbeat.
The sweetness and tension in her heart intertwined, making her breathing irregular and her face hotter and hotter. She could only give him a barely audible response.
Huo Shao Ting was very happy that she acted this way with him. Seeing her tension, he said nothing more and carried her downstairs.
Only when she was safely seated in the car did Rong Dai cover her chest with her hand to steady her chaotic breathing.
"What do you want to buy?"
Huo Shao Ting did not ntion what had happened. He was considerate of her feelings - bringing it up now would only embarrass her more. He was worried it might make her afraid to reveal her true feelings in the future.
Seeing that he did not ntion what had happened, Rong Dai relaxed a little. Since he wasn't talking about it, she would pretend it didn't happen either.
Thinking this, her breathing cald down a lot.
She looked out at the night and then at the ti on her phone. It was already 10pm.
"It's just a small thing, not that urgent. It's very late now, we've been out for a while, we should head back."
She had originally wanted Huo Shao Ting to take her to buy so embroidery floss she needed, but now it was late, and she didn't know where to buy such things here anyway.
Huo Shao Ting was a big company CEO, he probably didn't often go shopping like this and wouldn't know either.
"Alright then." Huo Shao Ting did not insist. He wondered if his reaction had been too slow earlier, letting her run out like that when her foot, though healed, still needed rehabilitation ti.
The two sat very close in the car, with the driver like a transparent person who could be completely ignored.
Rong Dai was still very nervous, her palms still sweating. Unable to find anything to say to him, she could only look at the colorful lights outside the window.
The two rode back to the Huo residence in silence. As before, Huo Shao Ting carried her from the car.
Rembering little sister Huo's teasing when they went out earlier, Rong Dai struggled as they entered the house, "Help get my crutch."
Seeing her cheeks still flushed, Huo Shao Ting carefully set her down and thoughtfully changed her into slippers before going upstairs for her crutch.
From upstairs, Huo i Shu watched the entire thing clearly. Taking advantage of the ti Huo Shao Ting went to fetch the crutch, she ca downstairs, eyeing Rong Dai curiously.
Rong Dai felt very uncomfortable under her gaze. Gossip lover Huo i Shu stroked her chin and asked teasingly, "Sister-in-law, you're looking a little odd! How far have you gotten with my brother? Have you kissed yet?"
Huo i Shu was modern, so her words were not inappropriate, but they made Rong Dai's face burn red. Sowhat annoyed, she glared at her, "I'm just...too hot."
As soon as she said it, Rong Dai wanted to slap herself. She didn't even believe her own words.
"Oh? I see, it must be because my brother's embrace is too fiery, or his suit is too thick. Next ti I'll have to tell him, when going on a couples' getaway with sister-in-law, he should wear less - between spouses there shouldn't be secrets..."
"i Shu!" Rong Dai's face was crimson. She glared at Huo i Shu in embarrassnt and annoyance, but it had no nace at all.
Huo i Shu laughed out loud imdiately. Hearing footsteps coming down the stairs, she whispered sneakily in Rong Dai's ear, "Don't be shy, it will get better later. Feelings are either progressing or regressing!"
Having said that, she darted into the kitchen pretending to look for a drink.
When Huo Shao Ting ca downstairs with the crutch, he saw Rong Dai's completely red, shy little face. The scene in the closet flashed uncontrollably in his mind again, and his fingertips grew hot too, the spot on his cheek she had kissed also gradually heating up.
