Chapter 163 Her faul

The moment Luo Xiaolei entered the room, her eyes immediately fell onto the man sitting behind an elegant, dark wooden desk.

His face was serious. His black tie was loosened and strands of his ink black hair had fallen over his forehead. His gorgeous brows were pulled together and he looked terrifyingly intimidating. Now that she was looking at him, she finally understood why his men didn’t dare to interrupt him.

She glanced at the quiet breathing statues on the sofa before she breathed deeply. Then, she walked towards his desk, her heels clicking softly as it hit the floor.

The lines on Yu Chen’s forehead went even deeper the instant he heard the noise. His face was dark as he raised his gaze.

Luo Xiaolei almost halted in place the moment she saw just how incredibly cold and deadly sharp his eyes were. This man never looked at her like this before so she couldn’t help but flinch.

Gladly, the man froze when he saw her and the seemingly ancient glacier in his eyes abruptly melted. The dangerous look in his eyes was immediately replaced with surprise and disbelief.

She saw his Adam’s apple bob up and down as his eyes stayed glued to her.

When she finally reached his desk, Yu Chen blinked but he still looked quite stunned.

Luo Xiaolei didn’t speak either. She just stood there looking back at him. Her eyes then fell over the pile of documents on his desk before she returned her gaze to his face.

They didn’t even notice that the bunch of breathing statues a while ago were already disappearing one after another until they were the only ones left inside the room.

The silence dragged on until Yu Chen finally moved. He dropped his gaze and glanced at his wristwatch. When he saw that it was already eleven, he pressed his lips tight into a hard line.

"Have you had dinner yet?" Luo Xiaolei finally spoke. Yu Chen looked at her and he couldn’t answer.

"How about your medicine?" she continued and when Yu Chen still couldn’t answer, Luo Xiaolei clenched her fists tight as she bit her bottom lip hard.

She sighed before she brought out her cellphone and dialed Gu Wei’s number.

"Hello? Please bring us some food." She said and the instant Yu Chen heard her, the man quickly stood.

"T-there’s no need. We’re going home." Yu Chen sounded a bit flustered as he hastily moved towards her but Luo Xiaolei continued talking to Gu Wei as if she didn’t hear what Yu Chen had said.

"Mm. Something that Yu Chen likes... Mm... also, ask for his medicine from Doctor Yang... Okay... Thank you."

When the call finally ended, she looked at the man before her.

"It’s very late. Let’s eat before we go home." She uttered, trying her best not show him how upset she was. She wanted to scold him for working so damn late even though he was clearly told not to work just yet. She was incredibly upset that he hadn’t even eaten dinner yet and didn’t even take his medicine when it was already near midnight. But she could only bite her lip because she knew that this was probably all her fault. It was her fault that he was hurt in the first place and now she even ended up hurting his feelings. What right does she have to scold him and get upset with him?

Luo Xiaolei felt her heart being squeezed tight.

But then, again, Yu Chen uttered the word she didn’t want to hear from him.

"I’m sorry," was again all he could say and Luo Xiaolei finally burst.

"Why are you apologizing again?!" her voice was a bit loud as her expression became emotional. "I should be the one saying that, you know?!"

Luo Xiaolei didn’t know why but a tear fell from her eyes.

Upon seeing her tears, Yu Chen immediately became anxious.

"X-xiaolei..." he could only whisper before he embraced her saying ’sorry’ again.

"I told you, stop saying sorry..." she was trying her best to calm herself, but when did she became someone this emotional? Why was it that she always lost control when she was with him?

"B-but I made you cry." His voice was choked as he hugged her even tighter.

"No, this is..." she shook her head and pulled away from him. "Ugh! I don’t know why I’m suddenly crying!" she complained, turning her back from him.

She breathed deeply and wiped her tears before facing him again. She could see just how worried and anxious he was. His hand was hanging midair, obviously unsure about what he should do next.

Luo Xiaolei reached out and took his hand. But before she could say a word, someone knocked on the door.

Some men in black entered and served the food on the coffee table near the floor to ceiling glass window.

After setting up everything, they bowed and left the room. Luo Xiaolei somehow managed to calm down. She pulled Yu Chen towards the coffee table and made him sit.

"Okay, let’s eat first." She said but the man just sat there, watching her and still looking very anxious.

"Hey, did you hear me?" she pinched his cheek, trying to lift his mood.

The man just stared at his food. It was obvious he wasn’t in the mood to eat and Luo Xiaolei knew it was her fault again. She should’ve at least waited until they finished eating before she burst out like that.

When Luo Xiaolei took the spoon, scooped some food and raised the spoon to his mouth, Yu Chen’s eyes widened.

"Ahh..." Luo Xiaolei said but Yu Chen almost looked like he was culture shocked. His reaction amused Luo Xiaolei that she subconsciously chuckled. "C’mon, don’t be shy."

However, Yu Chen was still very hesitant. "I-it’s okay. I’ll do it myself." He raised his hand to get the spoon from her hand but when Luo Xiaolei pouted, he paused. "Y-you don’t have to. Let me do it myself–"

"Ahh..." she insisted.

Yu Chen gently blew out a deep breath and then his ears reddened as he hesitantly opened his mouth.
