Women were really fickle!
"I don't want to go home. Let's find a hotel."
"What are we going to do in a hotel?"
"We'll rent a room." Since she kept asking, Colin decided to tease her for a while.
"Why would we rent a room in a hotel?" Sophia found Colin distracting. Since he kept spoiling her and holding her, she wasn't really paying attention to what he was saying.
Colin gave her a sly grin."We'll hide under the covers in the hotel room and talk to each other."
"Talk? Why do we need to talk?" Colin was so handsome that he would catch the attention of every passerby. After all, he was a public figure who had been on the news and the front pages of magazines. Sophia was afraid that he would be recognized by someone with ill intent, so she quickly dragged him into a shop.
It was good that she asked."Because... After we talk, we can..."
Colin whispered the rest into Sophia's ears, snapping Sophia out of her daze. Her face flushed crimson.
Frustrated, she bit his coat but her teeth accidentally got caught on the button of his coat.
"Ouch!" She massaged her mouth to soothe the pain.
Colin hurriedly took her face in his hands."What happened? Does it hurt?"
Sophia's eyes closed in pain. When the pain finally subsided, she opened her eyes again and shook her head."I'm okay now." Next time, she would bite his neck instead!
Colin looked at the place that Sophia had bitten and pecked her gently on the lips."You can just bite me, no need to bite my coat. Did the button cut into your teeth?"
With a click, a light flashed. Sophia and Colin looked to the direction, and saw a man taking pictures of them. When he noticed that they were looking at him, the man hurriedly put away his camera. He gave them an apologetic smile and walked away.
Colin didn't seem to mind. He pulled Sophia closer to him and continued to shop with her.
"Why was he taking our picture?" Sophia asked curiously.
They weren't actors, why would that guy take their picture?
"Look, is there anything you want?" Colin ignored her question and asked about the jewelry displayed in the counter.
Sophia shook her head."I want to get you something, Colin."
"I told you already, you can give you
"Do you still want to run away after what happened last night?"
Their relationship changes overnight. She tries to keep her distance from him, while he comes closer and closer.
Spoiling her, he gives her everything she desires. His only wish is to keep her around. The whole world is envious of what she has.
"Never rush in a relationship, " she says calmly.
information from Wade, he hung up.
When Sophia came back, Colin was waiting for her.
He took the shopping bag from Sophia's hand and said, "Something happened to Leila. Do you want to come with me to see her?"
Sophia's good mood instantly disappeared.
"Okay. I'll come with you." She wanted to see what happened to Leila.
"Good. Let's go to the parking lot." Colin held her close to him with his arm around her shoulders. They walked together towards the basement parking lot.
When they got to Colin's car, Sophia was shocked. Both the trunk and the backseat were full of shopping bags, and looked ready to burst.
How much did they buy tonight?
When she got inside, Sophia had to hold a few shopping bags. Colin started the car and drove to the nightclub.
At Room 322 in the Nightclub.
Colin opened the door of the private room and saw Leila curled up on the sofa, sobbing and shaking.
Wade stood helplessly beside the sofa. Seeing Colin, he hurriedly approached him."Mr. Li, Mrs. Li, you've arrived."
They both nodded at him.
At Wade's greeting, Leila looked up at Colin with tears in her eyes. She jumped off the sofa and threw herself into Colin's arms."Why did it take you so long, Colin? I was so scared..." She started sobbing again.
Colin patted her back."What happened?"
"Earlier... Two men tried to take advantage of me... I resisted, but they threatened me..."
Colin and Wade were speechless. On the other hand, Sophia sneered.
