Kiss me tender

When Melissa looked into Eric's eyes, she still felt that there was infinite tolerance in his eyes. He tolerated her past and everything about her, like the doting eyes of her lover, or as if he had set up a gentle net to trap her.

For a moment, Melissa felt that Eric still loved her, because he could only show such an expression to the one he loved. But the next moment, she felt that it was her illusion, because Eric restrained all the doting eyes, and the light in his eyes was gone, leaving only something unknown, as if he was treating a familiar friend. He smiled frankly and said, "Are you okay?"

Feeling embarrassed, Melissa felt that she was unnatural just now and she looked at his eyes for a long time so she shook off his hand awkwardly and said with a smile, "I'm fine... Nothing. "

"Long time no see. You look much better than before!" Eric said with a smile.

"You too!" Feeling a little embarrassed, Melissa couldn't find a topic to talk about, so she asked, "You must have been doing well recently, right?" But she regretted as soon as she asked him. In fact, she shouldn't have so much to do with him. They should just meet and leave. Why did she ask so many questions? Moreover, it was such a sensitive topic to ask him about his recent situation. Everyone knew that he was affected a lot because of her, and he had a lot of trouble recently. But when she saw his smiling face, Melissa felt that he was better, so she couldn't help asking.

Eric replied, "Not bad. Recently... I'm going to do a new job. "

Thinking of the conversation among the staff in the dressing room, Melissa finally asked, "Have you been... I heard that you are going to open your own company, aren't you? "

Facing her, Eric didn't avoid her, but replied frankly, "The news leaked out very fast. It wasn't long before everyone knew my plan."

He looked at her with his bright eyes, hiding all the melancholy past in the bottom of his heart. What appeared in front of her was only the mature and steady Eric, not the depressed man whose love and career were all hurt.

Then Melissa asked again, "So you terminated your contract with Hua Company, didn't you?"

"Yes, we terminated the contract in a low-key way. After all, it's not a glorious thing, so everyone chose to be silent and not to make it public."

"Is everything going well?"

"Stumbling around, but the contract was finally terminated. I don't pursue anything. I just want to leave Hua Company and get freedom."
