Siren Song Chapter 166

Leaning against the door Chang felt like all her hairs were standing on end as she pressed her hands the door, her knees locked together . Unable to pull herself together after the sudden shock she leaned against the door behind her and sank to the ground . Holding a closed fist to her heart she reclined her head further against the door .

'How is this possible . How does he always find me? Don't you know being surprised twice in two days like this isn't good for my poor heart?'

Justin's howls of laughter coming from the other room grated on her nerves and she realized he had set her up .

"I hope you know, Justin Mu Che, that you are a horrible human being!" She yelled back at him unable to tell if he could hear her not, but did not care . The image of the man sitting calmly at her dining table was burned into her brain .

Putting her hands over her mouth she sat there trying not to hyperventilate .

'Alright, don't freak out now . This is just sooner rather than later . You planned to talk to him at some point . Ahh, but I'm not ready, I'm not ready yet! Will I ever be ready though? I don't want to do this yet but here he is and its not like I can go anywhere . I'm on the seventh floor, its not like I could jump out the window . . ' Chang wryly thought while she sat there looking through the open pristine room with the long gla.s.s wall opposite her looking out onto the river, realizing there was nowhere she could go .

"Chang it's me . Can I come in?" A few light knocks sounded on her door before a low melodious voice made its way through the wood .

"h.e.l.l no! Do you think I don't know how shameless you are! Why would I let you in my room it's much safer for my chast.i.ty with a closed door between us!" Without thinking about it she yelled back immediately at him and cut herself off with a groan .

'That came out so wrong, that was not the first thing I wanted to say to him after so long . Ugh I should just stay in here . '

Hearing her words on the other side of the door the man's face darkened and he snorted a little .

'I've been a perfect gentleman the last two times we met, just what do you mean by that? As for your chast.i.ty, that was long ago taken by me . '

Around the corner, her friend's pointed laughter cut into his pride mercilessly .

'Glad at least someone's enjoying the show . I'll have to remember to whoop his a.s.s later . ' Hearing it as well on the other side of the door Chang considered dark thoughts about her friend .

"Chang, we shouldn't talk with a door between us . "

"I'm sorry, but I really I don't want to talk right now . "

On the other side of the door his hand curled tightly into a fist hearing her answer and the man deeply sighed .

"Fine . I am willing to wait for when you are ready . May I at least retrieve my jacket for now?"

'Ugh, how petty are you, you must have literally hundreds with how rich you are . . Well I did steal it, I should return it and not keep a lingering memento .

"Yeah one second, I'll pa.s.s it through the door . "

Standing Chang went and got it from where she left it on the bed, a pang of regret hitting her at the thought of just sending him away . Holding the jacket close to her chest she realized it smelled more like her now and only carried a faint trace of him .

Unlocking the door, she slowly sneaked her hand out holding it out while hiding the majority of herself behind her door . Biting her lip she kept her face hidden, and held it out blindly .

Chang felt him grab the jacket, as the weight was released from her wrist and she started to pull it back, but was restrained . Grabbing her wrist in a firm but gentle grasp Liang Jian Amal pulled her around from behind the door . Once she was clear of the door he forced it open and himself inside, nudging it closed behind him .

'Ahh my home base has been invaded!'

After having quickly shut the door behind him Liang Jian Amal wordlessly pulled her to him . His fingers running through the back of her super short hair while his nose nuzzled the top of her head .

Chang felt like all the air left her lungs and numbly stood feeling his arms around her .

His warmth . His smell . It was there, it was real .
