Because he was looking back while talking Qie Xieling didn't look where he was going. He didn't see that there was a waiter carrying a tray full of glasses. Too distracted to notice, continued walking straight towards the collision course.
Panic surged through Luo Muchen's veins as he instinctively reached out, his hand gripping Qie Xieling's waist, pulling him away from disaster. Qie Xieling stumbled slightly from the sudden movement, his speech slurring as he tried to apologize.
Luo Muchen didn't say anything, but the intensity between them was palpable. They stood there for a moment, locked in a gaze that spoke volumes.
