Aleigha gazed at him in shock.
"You..."
"What?" Adrian asked as nothing had happened.
"Nothing." Aleigha shook her head.
"I want more," Adrian requested.
Aleigha froze on the spot.
"Go ahead. There are plenty in the pot," she said awkwardly.
"You feed me."
Adrain looked into her eyes and his tone brooked no arguments.
He's totally out of his mind, Aleigha thought in her heart.
She could feel intense gazes and amused whispers around her.
Aleigha blushed and dropped her chopsticks in a hurry.
"I... I'm full."
Outside the restaurant, Aleigha still felt that the scene just now was unreal. Adrian seemed to have become another person.
And while she was in a daze, her hand was seized.
"Let's go."
Aleigha twisted her fingers, trying to breaking free.
"Release me."
Adrian ignored her and strode forward.
Aleigha didn't want to draw more attention so resigned herself to his domineering behavior.
But she felt very uncomfortable.
Walking on the street hand in hand with Adrain was something she had dreamed of in her last life.
But it only rendered her unsettled now.
Everything was too dreamy to be true.
She had always been very resistant to his intimacy for fear that it would burst like a fancy bubble someday.
But the warmth from Adrain's palm quietly cracked open her guard.
Something very soft flowed into her heart.
Adrian had big steps but he slowed down his pace so it wouldn't be hard for Aleigha to follow him.
When they passed by a wedding dress store, Aleigha's eyes lingered on the finery in the window.
Adrian stopped and followed her gaze.
He smiled.
"You want to marry me?"
It sounded like a joke but he would immediately arrange their wedding if she said yes.
However, Aleigha didn't answer. She got rid of his hand and walked to the window.
That wedding dress was really beautiful. It was so glamorous and fascinating.
"Every woman expects a fairy-tale-like wedding and to live happily with the man she loves ever after.
"Wedding day is the most important day in her whole life."
Men would never truly understand its importance.
Adrian didn't say anything, his unreadable eyes fixed on Aleigha for a long time.
He saw expectation on her face.
Adrian chose her instead of Aubrie in this life.
"What are you looking at?" His melodious voice sounded.
"Nothing." She quickly looked away.
"What about watching a movie with me?"
"Now?"
"Yes. It's early for sleep."
Adrian blinked at her, his eyes glistening.
Aleigha felt a little dizzy.
"Adrian," she called him.
"Yes?"
"Are you really you?" Her words confused Adrian.
She held his face in her palms and scrutinized him.
Adrian didn't protest and looked back at her.
After a while, he asked, "Would you mind telling me what is going on?"
She looked so adorable under the moonlight.
He pressed her against the trunk of a big tree beside them and tilted her chin up.
"Should I consider it as an invitation?"
Aleigha flushed and her heart skipped a beat.
"Aleigha, be my girlfriend, will you?" He asked.
