Angela wondered, "Arvin, how did you know Sven?"
... Was Angela a wet blanket for mentioning Sven at this time?
To Arvin, the answer was definitely a yes. He asked Angela a question instead of answering her. "Do you know what it means to allow a man to live with you?"
"Yes, I do!" Of course she knew, Angela was not as naive as he thought she was. However, she turned over and lay down. While facing him, she stared right through his eyes and said, "I have no worries about it because I know what kind of person you are."
Arvin didn't not know whether to cry or laugh at her words.
How did she know that he was not that kind of a man that she should worry about? 'Angela shouldn't believe people, especially men, this easily!' Arvin thought to himself.
He warned her with a slightly hoarse voice, "Don't allow any man to live with you, understand?" Any man except him!
Not being able to take her eyes off Arvin's body, she nodded quickly without thinking. All of a sudden, she pointed at his chest and asked, "Can I touch your muscles?"
It sounded like she was negotiating with him. However, her hand had already climbed up to his chest before he even allowed her!
"..." Arvin was speechless.
"Wow... It's real! Big Wing... I didn't expect you would have strong chest muscles..." Angela pressed her finger against his muscles and sighed.
Arvin didn't answer her. After a few minutes, he suddenly seized Angela's hand. "That's enough!"
Angela pulled back her hand and lay down on her back. She said reluctantly, "Okay, okay!"
The room was quiet for a while. Arvin closed his eyes and he seemed that he didn't want to speak to Angela. She tried to make him talk by asking, "Are you feeling sick?" He seemed to be breathing a little... Hard.
"No, " Arvin replied. He didn't bother to explain anything.
Angela sat up from the bed. "Do you have any disease? Like... A respiratory disease?"
She had noticed it for several times that he always had shortness of breath and a pale skin.
Arvin opened his eyes and glared at her. "Can you just stay still?"
"What? What does this have to do with me?"
Upon hearing her words, Arvin looked at her like he was looking at an idiot. He blurted out, "Did you really graduate from a medical university?" Then, he got out of bed and went to the kitchen to get a cold water.
Angela was left confused.
'Is there any connection between my university and his disease? Men are so mysterious, ' Angela thought to herself.
After doing a lot of thinking, she got even more confused. She took out her phone and was about to dial Nancy's number. However, she remembered that Nancy would not understand men either because she never had a boyfriend before.
She searched her phone contacts and soon found the best person to ask for advice! Mandy Duan!
Mandy was her high school classmate. She dropped out of college to get married because she was pregnant. She would definitely understand men!
"Hello! Mandy!"
"Oh, Angela! Long time no talk! Finally, you have thought of me!" Mandy put the baby back on the cot with the phone clamped to her ear.
"Haha! How's everything going?"
Mandy hesitated, but she told Angela with a smile on her face, "Yeah, I'm good! Everything is fine!"
The two girls made a small talk. Angela looked around to see if Arvin had come back. With a low voice, she asked Mandy, "Can I ask you a question, Mandy? There's a man, he is always short of breath and he has this weird expression. Do you know what's wrong with him?"
"What do you mean? Could you tell me more details?" Mandy couldn't figure out what Angela really meant. It was too vague and she didn't know ho
w to respond to her question.
Angela stammered as she explained and gave a more detailed description of what had just happened. "I just touched his muscles..."
Upon hearing what she said, Mandy couldn't help but laugh at her friend.
'I can't blame Angela. I can understand why she's like that. Her family was quite strict and overprotective.' Mandy sighed.
She remembered the time when they were in high school... Angela was always followed by her bodyguards.
Because of this, most people avoided her. The situation had prevented all the people from bringing or causing harm to Angela.
Her bodyguard didn't leave her until Angela went to the university. Because of her strong protest, Chuck had finally stopped hiring bodyguards for her.
"He felt something when you touched him, Angela!"
Mandy had already expressed it clearly with a word. Angela suddenly felt a little embarrassed...
Mandy continued, "It's quite common for a man to have feelings about a girl's touch... Is he your boyfriend, Angela? If he's not, you should stay away from him..."
At this time, after drinking the water and washing the glass thoroughly, Arvin came back to bedroom. Angela said, "Mandy, let's call it a day. I will meet you soon, " and she hung up the phone at once.
Angela ended the call before Mandy could even finish her words.
She looked at Arvin with a guilty expression as he walked toward her. 'I almost forgot that he is a man... Why would I forget what the teacher has taught in our biology class, ' she thought to herself.
"Flickering eyes and guilty face. What did you do, Angela Si?" Arvin had calmed down. He stared at the girl who was sitting on the bed with a red blush on her cheeks.
"No... No, I... I didn't do anything." Angela slided awkwardly into bed and covered her head.
In the dark, she swore to herself for several times! How could she be seduced by Arvin's body and didn't even remember the distance she should keep from a man?
No wonder he always said that she was stupid! 'You are really stupid, Angela!' she sighed heavily.
Arvin pulled away the sheet over her head. Angela's face seemed even more red this time.
"Angela, do you have a fever?" After saying that, he grabbed her wrist and was about to check her pulse.
Angela pulled her wrist back in a hurry. "No, I'm fine, I'm perfectly fine! Let's go to bed, Big Wing..."
'Wait, why did it sound a little bit weird?' she faltered.
"Ah, no. You take out another blanket because we will sleep separately..." Didn't that mean they would sleep in the same bed?
"No, let's sleep in separate rooms."
... Angela had realized that what she said was not clear. It was very ambiguous.
Her nervous behavior was noticed by Arivin. She has finally came to her senses. She seemed to be aware of the danger of living with a man alone!
That's good!
"Don't you feel it's too late to say that now?"
"No, I don't think so, Arvin. I think I should... Go back home. I'll call Nancy!" She would rather protect herself and remain pure than sleep with a handsome man!
They were not even a couple. She might be burned to death if her family would find out that they were living together. And she would probably be burned by her own parents... Angela couldn't help but laugh when she thought of this.
'It's not funny at all, Angela!' she patted her face.
Angela lifted the sheet and put on her slippers. She finally decided that it was time for her to go home.
"Angela, it was you who said that—"
"Ding-dong, ding-dong..." The doorbell suddenly interrupted Arvin.
They looked at each other and both felt a little anxious. Who would come at this late hour?
