"Stop it!"
Meng Xi'er loudly interrupted him, "Get out!"
"..." Lu Yebai silently looked at her. After a moment, he asked in a low voice, "You've noticed too, haven't you?"
"..." Meng Xi'er stared at him in terror, opening her mouth, but no words came out.
She didn't know why she was so scared. It was as if, once Lu Yebai spoke those words, she would no longer have a way out.
The man looked at her, laughed lightly, and against her terrified gaze, he stubbornly declared, "I've fallen for you, Xixi. That's it."
Admitting he liked her seemed so hard.
However, saying it out loud felt like unburdening a heavy load.
He was confident, not hesitant at all, gazing at her unabashedly.
Meng Xi'er's face turned slightly pale. She didn't utter a word for a long while.
She didn't need to.
She thought, what she had with him was merely a transaction of money and sex. He provided the money, she the body, and they were square with each other.
She didn't need his affection.
