When they reached the first floor, the people in the elevator left one after another. Serenity and Gabriel were the last to come out.
Gabriel leaned closer to her and his cold lips pressed against her ear.
“Seducing me in front of so many people?”
Serenity was caught off guard by his sudden approach, so she was startled for a moment before her face turned red. She glared at him with her clear eyes.
“You know what I wrote.”
The man, who was usually strict and indifferent, was in the mood to tease her as he innocently said, “I only felt you touching me in front of so many people.”
Although there was no one in the lobby and no one saw it, Serenity’s face still turned red.
“I wrote ‘thank you’! Thank you!”
Gabriel looked at her flushed cheeks. “Is that so? 1 couldn’t tell.”
Serenity was speechless.
There was a large supermarket next door to the hotel which they entered.
The two of them walked around the supermarket as Serenity followed behind him absent-mindedly.
When he stopped in his tracks, she almost bumped into his back.
He had anticipated this so he quickly took a step to the side and she was spared.
Gabriel turned around to look at her. “Go get the stuff you need.”
Her quiet little face was gentle. “I don’t have anything to buy.”
She had already walked around the supermarket and her eyes would occasionally glance at the women’s products section. He was not blind. “Go quickly.”
Serenity dawdled for a long time before she braced herself and walked to the women’s products section. With a few quick glances at the shelves, she found the brand she usually used, took a bag, stuffed the product in, and hid it behind her back before walking to queue at the counter.
A well-defined hand reached out from her side and handed her an expensive custom-made wallet. She tilted her head and looked at Gabriel in confusion.
Gabriel indifferently asked, “Do you have money?”
She reached into her pocket and realized that she had forgotten to take her money with her. Even her phone and room card were still in Gabriel’s room. She found it difficult to say, “I didn’t bring it.”
The corners of her lips twitched as she hesitated for a moment before taking Gabriel’s wallet.
Gabriel left and stood at the exit to wait for her. She could find him at a glance by looking at the head that did not match the heights of others.
He stood out too much. His exquisite and handsome facial features, high and firm nose bridge, thin and beautifully shaped lips – every part of him exuded the charm and attractiveness of a mature man.
Many years later, she would still remember this scene. He had one hand in his pocket, his suit jacket was open, revealing his clean and white shirt, standing at the exit waiting patiently for her.
It was as if he was waiting for a lover with deep eyes that were pure and quiet.
The queue started to move but even as she took steps forward, their eyes were locked onto each other.
Her heart beat uncontrollably like multiple stones being thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.
Other than John, this was the second man she had such feelings for.
And these feelings felt so real that she didn’t dare to think about it carefully.
She was afraid that if she did, she would be doomed.
After exiting the supermarket, the two returned to the hotel and went back to the top floor first so that Serenity could take her room card and phone from his place before returning to hers.
Serenity came out of the washroom and someone knocked on her door. She peeked through the peephole and saw that it was a hotel staff.
She opened the door and saw the waiter holding a glass of brown sugar water. “Miss, here’s what you requested..”
