Lei Zhao stood there stupefied. To say he was shocked was an understatement. He opened his mouth in an o shape and closed it again. Lei Zhao felt like he was in a trance as he looked into her deep eyes. Involuntarily he held his breath, and the surrounding time froze.
'Did she… God, she said…' Lei Zhao was going through an internal turmoil. He felt he was hallucinating. Even though he has been waiting to hear her say these three-letter words to him, he was finding it difficult to believe it. It was so unexpected that… he was just lost.
'God, she said, she loves him!' Lei Zhao felt he was floating on the clouds. Yan Mei bit her lips and fidgeted nervously, twiddling her thumbs, waiting for his response, but he was just staring at her, saying nothing. Yan Mei felt awkward.
"O-I will take a bath." She said and dashed out of the room. When Lei Zhao came out of whatever fantasyland he was in, she was already gone.
