Jinhai was waiting for Nana to come back from her bath. She came out, drying her hair.
"Nana-"
But she didn't glance at Jinhai and avoided him. She sat on the bed, and Jinhai hugged her from behind. "Nana, don't be mad at me, please. I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. I was only worried that you are working too hard."
Nana lowered her head and said nothing.
"Please?"
Nana touched his hand. Jinhai got happy that she was not angry anymore.
But, she pulled his arms away and freed her from his embrace.
He froze.
"Nana…"
She didn't look at him and said indifferently, "Can we go to sleep now? It's really late. Good night."
She quickly changed into her nightgown and went to bed.
Jinhai was now panicking. This was the first time Nana was behaving so indifferently towards him.
Did I go too far? May be my tone was a little more stern than necessary. I shouldn't have talked to her like that.
