Chapter 63: Bai Chang & Qiang

[POV Bai Chang]

A pair of arms wrapped around me and carried me in a princess style. Qiang's presence in my proximity brought out altogether a different kind of warmth. I snuggled into his arms.

He held me tight and walked inside. 

As he laid me down on the couch, I held onto his hands.

"Are you awake?" he asked playfully.

"Umm-hmm" I replied.

"Do you want to sleep some more?"

I shook my head but still kept on lying on the couch wrapped inside the blanket.

He started to play with my hair. There was silence between us, but in no way was it awkward or smothering us. There was an understanding. Slowly we were building trust among us.

"You rest some more, I will join you after I freshen up," he said.

I simply nodded my head in reply while taking a long yawn. He ruffled my hair and left.

(Oh no! I am no pet of yours that you pet me on my head.)

I am simply annoyed by that.
