Chapter 364: Take Her to See the Stars?
Translator: 549690339
Dihor Garden is the most expensive estate in Capital City and one of the tallest buildings there.
Rong Yan followed his strides and pushed open the door to the rooftop. The gusty night wind blew against her face, almost causing her to shiver from cold.
Just then, an extra coat was draped over her shoulders.
The coat still carried a person’s warmth, instantly blocking the chill that had just brushed against her.
Rong Yan turned around to see the poised man now wearing only a thin, short-sleeved shirt.
“Li Shengxiao, I’m not cold, you wear it. Taking off your coat like that could easily give you a cold.” Rong Yan said while reaching to take off the coat draped over her.
Li Shengxiao authoritatively pressed down her hand, wrapping her in the coat, his distinguished features proud and noble, “You were clearly shivering just now!”
She was good in every way, but too prone to pretending she was fine!
No matter how big the problem, she always acted as if nothing was wrong.
If he hadn’t seen those reports online, he might not have known how difficult her days had been recently!
Li Shengxiao embraced the person in his arms and covered her eyes, leading her to the edge of the rooftop before letting go and speaking in a husky voice, “Yanyan, look up!”
Rong Yan was caught off guard by the intimate gesture of covering her eyes and then suddenly regaining her vision. Before fully collecting her thoughts, her body instinctively followed his words and she looked up.
What greeted her eyes were the beckoning stars that filled the sky.
The pitch-black sky rarely revealed such an expansive starry canopy, visible only when the weather in Capital City was exceptionally clear.
In the darkness, the twinkling stars seemed clearer and more distinct than anywhere else.
They flickered as if they were blinking.
Rong Yan was involuntarily captivated by the beauty above her, staring fixedly at the picturesque sky, lips curving into a smile as she asked, “Li Shengxiao, did you bring me up here just to watch the stars?”
She had been feeling down today and wanted to rest early, but the sudden sight of a sky full of stars dissipated the slight gloom in her heart, granting her a liberating sense of relief.
The world was still vast, and she wanted to work hard to make money and take Little Baby to see it.
She simply didn’t have the energy to worry about those who didn’t like her and how they viewed her!
Rong Yan was gazing at the sky, but she didn’t notice that there was someone by her side who ignored the breathtaking view that was so close at hand and was watching her all along!
Rong Yan looked at the star-filled sky, reluctantly shifting her gaze, smiled sweetly and confidently replied, “I like it!”
She really liked it a lot.
Especially at this moment of feeling down tonight, seeing this truly made her happy.
But as much as she liked it… Rong Yan touched his arm and felt a coolness to the touch, immediately furrowing her brows and saying, “Alright, I’ve seen the stars, let’s go back together now, it’s too cold here!”
The weather at the end of summer was not considered cold, but it was night and the rooftop was very high, where the wind was blowing too strongly.
She was worried that if he stayed out in this wind any longer he’d catch a cold!
Rong Yan reached out to grab him.
Her wrist was instead seized by the noble man, Li Shengxiao’s Adam’s apple bobbed, his dark eyes resting on her as he spoke with pleasure, “Wait a moment longer.”
Aren’t we done watching the stars?
He couldn’t possibly be asking her to wait until midnight for the stars to disappear so they could enjoy the moon together, could he?
