In the silent living room, just as Ning Guiwan's "Okay" landed, Quan Yu sat down beside her.
Although he was still holding her hand, there was a half-foot distance between their clothes. Yet, the sense of intimacy was tangible and perfectly balanced. Ning Guiwan, looking at the handsome face so close to hers, couldn't help but scrutinize it carefully: eyebrows like swords, long eyelashes, a delicate nose and lips, and a defined jawline.
Quan Yu, noticing she was looking at him with an intensity he had never seen before, couldn't help but let a smile curve his lips. He slightly increased the pressure of his grip and spoke in a very relaxed tone, "Don't recognize me anymore?"
Ning Guiwan mirrored his smile, paused for a moment, and then said, "I think, from now on, I should get to know you all over again."
The meaning behind that statement was profound.
It was worth delving deeper into than her previous comment about "liking to see you in a white shirt."
