He was wearing a navy blue suit with a black shirt. His bangs were combed back, and he was dressed in the same clothes she had seen in the video earlier today when the reporters surrounded him to interview him.
Qin Lianyi suddenly had a rather strange feeling. After all, she had just watched a news video of him during the day. Now, he was right in front of her.
The two stared at each other without speaking.
After a long time, Qin Lianyi could not help but blink and say to Bai Tingxin, "It's... late."
"I know." His magnetic baritone voice filled the room.
'He knows? Then why is he still in my room? Okay, it's not really my room since he owns the entire apartment.'
"What are you doing here so late?" she asked after hesitating a little.
"I just wanted to see you," he said. He felt happy just sitting here and watching her sleep.
Her sleeping posture was as unattractive as ever. He watched her occasionally grind her teeth and roll about on the bed. It reminded him of their past together.
It was a wonderful time for him.
Bai Tingxin said, "You slept soundly but almost rolled off the bed. Maybe I should make a bigger bed for you so you won't fall off it so easily."
She answered him affirmatively, "Yes. Bai Tingxin, I thought I made it very clear to you the other day."
"What if I refuse?" he asked as he stood up and moved closer to her.
She was suddenly amused. "Refuse? Who are you to refuse? We’ve broken up. It was you who broke up with me! Have you come to me again because you've broken up with Gao Manlin and have no feelings for her? What am I? A fallback girl?"
A look of pain flashed through his eyes. "You were never a fallback girl!"
She snapped, "But you’ve been treating me like a fallback girl! Bai Tingxin, you don't have to love me and you can choose to break up with me. But please take relationships seriously. I'm human too. I get emotional. Even if I have no money and power, I'm not someone you can order around!"
