118 Avoidance
When Liling arrived home, Liu Wei was already back, she dropped her bag and hurried over to serve his meal. She knew he hadn't eaten, he always waited for her so they could eat together. When she thought about it, some words Xin Yong said started replaying in her mind.
'Why would he wait for her to come back so they could eat together? Did he really like her?'
She quickly shook off those thoughts from her mind, repeating to herself.
'He has a fiancée!! '
During mealtime, she didn't know why she would often glance at Liu Wei. Looking at his face, she didn't know why she was just realizing how breathtaking he was. Why hadn't she been seeing it since?
She knew he was handsome but that night, he looked incredibly beautiful. At that moment, Liu Wei turned to look at her and she quickly withdrew her eyes.
That was one thing about him she couldn't resist, his gaze.
His eyes, up until till now, she hadn't found the right word to describe them.
As she ate, she felt his gaze on her. She suddenly felt uncomfortable and couldn't hold onto the chopsticks properly.
After unsuccessful attempts, she took a random excuse and fled the table to her room.
It was when she peeked at herself in the large mirror, she realized that she had been red all the while!
'What has Xin Yong done to her??!!'
She wasn't like this before, and the man in question already has a fiancée, she can't be having feelings for another woman's husband, was she?
Liling's mouth fell open as she gazed at her figure in the mirror.
Three months later...
The training period has come to an end. The trainees were in the next level, which was to compose songs themselves and present the next day during lessons.
Xin Yong excelled in this aspect, though Liling was finding it very difficult.
Her lyrics were perfect, but the tutor complained that she wasn't singing life into her songs.
Some of the trainees had the same problem too and they were told that the upcoming Monday was their last chance to do better.
These three months had been hell for Liling. The moment she realized she had started liking her boss was the beginning of her trauma.
Anytime he was around, she felt very uneasy.
If he was very close to her, either she was getting red or she was sweating. 𝘧re𝑒𝔀𝘦𝙗𝓃oν𝑒𝙡 - 🅽🅽novel
She couldn't control what was going on with her as much as she tried, so the only way out was to avoid him.
He has someone he likes and was going to get married to her soon, so it was going to be very stupid if she nursed those growing feelings. She had to take care of them before they develop into something else.
So she returned early and waits for him, as soon as she sees his car enter the compound, she rushes to prepare his bath, so that, when Liu Wei was coming into his room, she was leaving.
That had been her daily routine. She didn't tell Xin Yong or anyone what had been going on with her, she wanted to deal with it herself.
Liu Wei had noticed that she had been avoiding him for the past few months, he had ransacked his brain for what he did wrong or whether he had offended her in any way but he couldn't find any reason for her to avoid him.
Each day he returns, his bath is already prepared and her door tightly shut. He had been pretending everything was okay, but he knew in his heart how much he was suffocating.
'Should he ask her why she was avoiding him?'
That was petty, what if she says she was not avoiding him, it'll seem as though he was yearning for her attention, even though that was what he was looking for anyways.
He was no longer concentrating in the office, his head filled with questions without answers to them.
Before she started living with him, he had not missed her so much, but now she was staying in the same house, on the same floor and just few steps away from his room but he couldn't even talk to her.
