Give it a shot… at being together?
Li Beinian's heart skipped a beat.
Everything came to a standstill, except for him and her.
The air-conditioner in the car didn't seem to be working at all! Li Beinian could feel the warmth Mu Xichen emanated.
It was so clear, so… appealing.
Being together… with him…
"I…"
Li Beinian stiffened as she looked up into his eyes.
Mu Xichen steadied her as he watched her with eyes that could almost melt anything in his view.
Li Beinian's mind was in a whirl as she lost the ability to think rationally.
But deep inside a voice yelled: No!
She closed her eyes and took a deep breath before finally saying, "No…"
We can't! We aren't compatible!
When she reopened her eyes, she tried to evade his glance.
She changed her words right before uttering them. "I feel that this is… too sudden…"
"It isn't sudden." Mu Xichen looked at her calmly. "I like you a lot."
