Lin Chu said it with a laugh.
But Liao Meili could still sense a sharp, aggressive edge to his words.
"Geez, are you still mad? I was just trying to do something nice for you. If you don't want it, just say so. You scared me. Why are you being so aggressive?"
Her heart was racing a little. She backed down, looking at Lin Chu with a wronged expression as she spoke.
"I'm not drinking it. It's disgusting."
Lin Chu thumped the bowl down on the table, tossed the spoon aside, and got up, heading for his bedroom.
He paused at the doorway, giving her an out. Turning back, he asked, "Coming to bed?"
Liao Meili stared at him, dazed.
She sat on the sofa in a sulk, not saying a word.
"Come on now. All right, all right, I'm not mad anymore. I'm exhausted today. Come on, I just want to hold you while we sleep."
