Chapter 123: Romantic to horror real quick.

Matthew Xi stared at the ceiling while Zoey fell asleep just like that. Turning his head towards her, a short chuckle escaped his lips. 

Slowly, he moved his body and laid on his side, facing Zoey's peaceful sleeping front. "Do you know why I want to go home?" He paused, studying her delicate and exquisite features.

"Because I don't know what to do with you if I'm near you..." his hand gently stroked the strands of her hair that dangled on her cheek. 

Matthew Xi wasn't a hard drinker. Hence, he watched his alcohol consumption earlier. In normal parties, he wouldn't mind drinking a little more. 

Those were the days when he had no foreign urges. Even the strongest temptation wouldn't break through his defenses. However, everything changed when Zoey suddenly came into the picture. 

He knew deep down how strong his attraction towards Zoey was. Thus, he was uncertain about his actions if he drinks the same amount of liquor as hers.
