Mu Sheng opened the door before long. She had removed her hair tie and seemed to be getting ready to wash up. “Yes?”
Li Hanchen’s lips moved slightly as he looked at her deeply. Just as he was about to speak, he changed his mind and said, “I have a headache.”
“Come in. Let me examine you.” Mu Sheng turned to let Li Hanchen enter. As she turned, her soft dark hair swept through the air and the tip of her hair grazed Li Hanchen’s shoulder.
Okay,” answered Li Hanchen as he concealed his thoughts.
Li Hanchen wanted to apologize for helping someone else in the game. He wanted to tell her he would always be on her side. However, he felt he was not in the position to talk about this yet.
“Don’t move.” Mu Sheng told Li Hanchen to take a seat on the couch before placing her hands on his wrist.
Li Hanchen sat with Mu Sheng bending over in front of him. All her long hair was hanging over her shoulders, so a few strands of hair even touched Li Hanchen’s chest and waist. Some of her hair even touched Li Hanchen’s chin. It felt so soft and silky that Li Hanchen sensed his body tingling.
“Why is your temperature so high?” The moment Mu Sheng placed her hands on his wrist, she could sense how warm his wrist was.
Li Hanchen pulled his hand back and composed himself. “Why didn’t you tie your hair?”
Mu Sheng went speechless as she glanced at Li Hanchen before she finally said, “Why are you so fussy?”
Previously, he kicked a huge fuss when she did not tie her hair.
Li Hanchen lowered his eyes to conceal the emotions surging through his heart. “My skin is more sensitive after being ill for so long.”
Mu Sheng went quiet. Fine. Since he was the patient, she decided not to get upset.
She pulled her hair tie off her wrist and started tying her hair. Li Hanchen handed her a piece of chocolate. “This is a new flavor. It tastes slightly different and doesn’t contain sugar.”
Mu Sheng’s eyes lit up as she took the chocolate. Li Hanchen patted the empty space beside him and she sat down.
She placed her hair tie beside her. As she started to peel the wrapper, she could sense someone touching her shoulders.
Mu Sheng turned to look. Li Hanchen had unknowingly taken her hair tie and was holding her hair and tying it up.
Li Hanchen looked absolutely natural when she turned to look and even asked, “Yes?”
Mu Sheng was a little stunned before she shook her head. “Nothing.”
Li Hanchen acknowledged calmly and Mu Sheng turned back.
Li Hanchen’s lips curved upwards as he stood behind her.
Despite Mu Sheng’s distant appearance, she was very innocent at heart.
He kept looking at Mu Sheng from this side like a wolf looking at its prey predatorily as he cautiously tested her boundaries and reduced the distance between them.
One day, all the distance between them would be gone. The moment Mu Sheng got accustomed to his presence, she would be his.
Li Hanchen had overcome hell to become what he was, so he was no kind soul.
After staying in the darkness for so long, he finally saw a ray of light. Even if it meant turning into ash, he had to hold on tightly to this ray of light at all costs.
Light cast a shadow under Mu Sheng’s eyelashes as she quietly ate the chocolate. Li Hanchen held her long silky hair after he was done tying her hair with complicated emotions running through his heart.
“All done.” Li Hanchen let go of her hair.
“Okay. I will give you a massage to help clear your channels,” said Mu Sheng as she stood up to start.
“I don’t have a headache anymore. I am much better. Why don’t you have an early night?”
Li Hanchen’s eyes landed on Mu Sheng’s hand. Since she had been gaming all night, her hands ought to be tired.
Qin Kai sat in the Flourishing Age Group offices. Even though he was an intelligent man, he found it inexplicable when he saw the company report in his hand. Why was the company putting in so much money to develop toffee?
Also, they were making major losses to develop them. Was it part of Mr. Li’s next move?
