Chapter 8: Chapter 8: In his arms
Li jun?
Looking backwards, I met the eyes of the man whom I met twice, both in the party for Jirou and at the park.
My brows must have creased again inciting a clear sound of laughter from him. My eyes slightly strayed at his pore less and sharp features. I didn't blush like a maiden who first laid her eyes on a striking handsome man, instead, I felt shame for looking at him.
I felt like I just gave my husband a green hat.
(Green hat means- Cheated on a spouse)
"Oh my gosh! I'm not dreaming am I?!" Rika suddenly held my hand, her eyes shining brightly amidst the awkward situation I am currently facing.
"Rika!" I hissed at her as I tug her hand not so soft making her stumbled in the process.
I was still leaning on my other feet awkwardly when her weight suddenly fell off mine making me stumble into the cold hard floor.
As I awaited for the excruciating pain, a warm body covered mine as the body of Rika was suddenly lifted off of me. Opening my eyes, I met the sight of the ceiling and the feeling of something hard on my entire body.
Turns out, the man named Li jun practically bolted out to catch the two of us from falling. The hard thing that I am also feeling was his warm and the faint but clear smell of his aftershave and his natural scent mixing in the air making me feel too overwhelmed all over.
Standing up abruptly, my knees almost buckled but I was held in a tight but gentle hand making me balance in my feet.
"Tha--Thank you" I stammered as I let my hair act as a curtain to cover the blush of embarrassment on me.
"No problem. Just make sure you tend to you foot, it seems like you sprained it" He said while eyeing my foot.
"Oh no! I'm so sorry Eiri! Stupid woman!" Rika said while knocking her head in frustration.
Seems like I was too embarrassed to notice the burning pain in my foot
"It's okay, don't worry. Thank you for helping us Li....Li jun" Slightly faltering at saying his name. Moistening my lips, I opened my mouth and said. "We'll be off now, thank you for your help again".
I held Rika's hand for support while we walk slowly at the exhibition, no longer having the chance to view the masterpiece that I have painted. As we neared through the exit, I almost felt the wind brushing on my body for a second.
Seems like some man or woman rushed too fast in the exit.
"Are you really fine?" Rika once again asked.
"I told you I'm fine. Don't worry about these, Geez!" I said half amused and half annoyed at her continuous nagging.
As we left the area, Rika immediately went out to flag a cab and take me home, but before she could do that, a black Lykan Hypersport car sweep all the wind and stop in front of us.
"I'll take you home"
With his calm and resonate gaze, my hands grew clammy and I was about to call for Rika when she mouthed a word that made me pale in fright.
"Nolan"
