Lu Yebai stayed in Greece for three days, then took Meng Xi'er back to Baisha City.
During these three days, they interacted sparingly. Meng Xi'er became more silent in his presence, spending her time looking out of the window with a pale, expressionless face, her thoughts unreadable.
Lu Yebai grew irritable at this new Meng Xixi. He preferred her storming and raging rather than this calm detachment as if she was ardently excluding him from her world, completely erased him out of her eyes.
However, he was helpless.
She wanted to leave, repeatedly asking him when he was going to set her free, and each time, his answer was the same: "When I'm tired of this."
Tired, an interesting word. Lu Yebai had never taken an interest in a woman before. So, when Meng Xi'er asked him when he will get tired of her, he couldn't provide an answer.
It might be tomorrow; it might be a month. In any case, it likely wouldn't be too long. Once he figures out his feelings, he will let her go.
