“Tomorrow will be my off day!” He had been busy for two days without resting and now, he just wanted a rest. He looked at her and added, “Tomorrow you’re off too!”
“But today, I already took the day off!” Leila whispered.
“Then ask for another one!”
Leila looked up in dismay. She looked straight into the charming face of Vincent. The expression on his face was serious and earnest, which did not look like a joke. As he received no response from her, he pursed his lips, seemingly a bit impatient.
His order made her nod uneasily. ‘He was acting a bit extraordinary today,’ thought Leila.
Looking at her puzzled expression, Vincent secretly raised his eyebrows, and the thin lips that were tightly pursed now were pulled into a smile, a smile with a hint of interest. “I’m full.”
Vincent stood up and went upstairs.
Leila giggled and responded, “Oh! Good night!”
“I’ll wait for you in my room, come up after you’ve finished your food!” He walked to the second step of the stairs. Looking at the spotless stairs, he blinked and threw out these words.
“I still have to wash the dishes!” Leila panicked.
“I’ll wait for you!” He directly went upstairs.
Leila was so panicked as she could have ever been. As she finished her noodles, she stood up and cleaned up everything. However, she didn’t expect that she had used up 40 minutes to clean up. She guessed that Vincent might be asleep by now. Hence, what was the meaning behind that he said he would wait for her?
She headed upstairs. As she passed by the door of the master bedroom, she realized that the door was open. And Vincent, who was wearing pyjamas, was not sleeping. He was sitting on the bed and reading a book.
Leila was dumbfounded.
“Finished with your work?” He lifted his head and his sharp eyes swept over her face.
Leila nodded uneasily. Wouldn’t he think that she was deliberately dawdling in the kitchen?
“Come over and sleep!” He said in a deep voice.
An inexplicable emotion of shyness took over her like the lava from a volcanic eruption. Her cheeks blushed instantly. She could even feel that her ears had started to blush too.
She secretly clenched her fingers behind her back and took a deep breath. Her face was as red as a tomato, which made her too shy to see anyone. She lowered her head and said, “I’m going to sleep right now!”
She panicked till she could barely stand straight. She was so afraid that she would need to sleep with him, “Goodnight!”
She quickly ran to the guest room after she said that. Her heart was fluttering like having butterflies in her stomach.
Early in the morning.
A sound of closing a file with frustrations was heard in the study. Vincent turned and took a glance at the sky which was already bright and sunny. His cold face looked even gloomier than before.
