Leng Yan immediately stopped and turned his head to stare at her closely.
Under his intense gaze, she didn't know what to say.
Should she ask him to stay?
But what excuse could she use? This is a single apartment; he would have no place to stay if he remained.
However, she didn't want him to leave. She hadn't seen him for years, and if she let him go just like this, she would certainly regret it. Perhaps once he leaves, they might not have the chance to meet again.
"Um, today's my birthday, could you wait until after my birthday to leave?" Xia Nuo found a very poor excuse.
Leng Yan's eyes softened suddenly. Continuing this deadlock is pointless. Whether it was life or death, he needed a clear understanding.
He decided not to play games with her anymore.
"Xia Nuo."
"Hmm."
Leng Yan walked up to her, his deep, dark eyes gazing into hers, "Four years have already passed."
Xia Nuo was taken aback and then misunderstood his meaning.
