Chen looked taken aback by the way Amane was treating him. He had never been treated with care after his caretaker's death. So, he was taken aback when Yoko Tsurugi touched his hand.
Once again, the familiarity he felt with her was present. It was almost as if Yoko knew how to handle him to lower his guard. Her touch was solid but not overwhelmingly so.
"I am sorry for the display of emotions I showed you. This moment of weakness will not happen again."
Chen quickly pulled his hand back and he gathered himself. No matter how taken aback he was, he did not want to show his weakness in front of a foreigner.
Yoko only smiled back at him with patient eyes. She did not even accuse him of anything which made Chen look away from her earnest eyes.
"Anyway, my offer is still standing and I am sure you will not find a better offer anywhere. So, you should consider getting married to me sooner or later."
