A Billion Dollar Exchange Chapter 168 You will always have me

Liu Wei held her chin, making her to look into his eyes, directly.

“For being here…with me.”

The words resounded in Liling’s ears, the eyes that stared at her spoke volumes. She struggled to withdraw her gaze but she couldn’t. Liu Wei’s eyes held hers like a magnet, she could only stare deeper and deeper, until she was almost engulfed in his gaze.

The atmosphere became tense. Liling felt her heart starting to race as her eyes dropped to Liu Wei’s lips. He was staring at hers the same way, and Liling could not help fearing that what happened the previous night was about to happen again.

The most terrifying thing about it happening was that, she was sure she would not be able to resist him once again.

She prayed earnestly for a miracle to happen, because if nothing happens, she was sure that she was getting another mind blowing kiss that evening.

Almost immediately, her stomach made a grumbling sound, snapping Liu Wei out of his trance.

Liling bit her lower lips embarrassedly and quickly touched her stomach with her hand.

“Ha, I’ve not had anything since morning, I’m quite famished!”

They both laughed at her words and Liling seized that opportunity and quickly looked away from him.

“That’s good then, because I bought many foods and snacks, it’ll be a waste if you’ve eaten before now. “

“Really? thank God!. I was just wondering how I would make something with this grumbling stomach of mine.”

Liling remarked happily as she rubbed her tummy like a spoilt child.

Liu Wei chuckled at her childishness. He stood up from the bed, taking his jacket and tie with him.

“They’re on the dining table, I’ll go freshen up, you can eat first if you’re so hungr…”

“No-no, I’ll run your bath first, then I’ll wait for you, so we’ll eat together, what do you think? “

She cut him off, her lips pouted and a blush forming on her cheeks.

Liu Wei smiled at her, then pinched her cheeks lightly.

“So cute.”

“Uh? “

He was not so loud, so she did not hear him clearly.

Liu Wei chuckled and changed his words.

“I said, you’re very thoughtful and kind.”

Liling creased her brows and remarked;

” but… that’s not what I heard”

She said with pounding lips, her puppy eyes staring at him, unconvincingly. Liu Wei couldn’t help but laugh.

“So what did you hear?”

Liling shook her head angrily and glared, then made to walk past him. But before she could take two steps, Liu Wei caught her by the waists, pulling her into his warm body.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I said that you’re…that you’re very cute. “

His voice was flirty and his grip on her waists, mild. Liling felt her legs getting jittery.

She quickly feigned a cough and immediately released herself from his grip.

“Okay. I’ll go prepare your bath now. “

…

After the meal, Liu Wei helped Liling do the dishes, after which, they sat watching TV.

Liling changed the channels, looking for an interesting show. She saw many interesting movies, but most of them were romance, so she speedily changed them.

She was not about to watch a romantic movie with Liu Wei alone in a whole house.

Her fingers suddenly stopped when an entertainment news channel popped up, showing two women talking on the newest and most famous record label in China and America__ X-dynasty.

Her hand on the remote controller suddenly froze. The incident of the past few days rushing back into her mind.

Quickly recovering from her trance, she immediately held up the remote to change the channel, but Liu Wei stopped her hand. She instinctively shifted her gaze to look at him, perplexed.

“You don’t need to be afraid Liling, you have me. “

Those words hit Liling like a tornado. Her mind filled with different thoughts.

She had him, so she should not be troubled, right?

He valued her, so he won’t allow her to be thrown out just like that, right?

Most importantly. He was her friend and she was his friend.

He won’t let his friend suffer right?

Thinking about these, Liling couldn’t stop a smile from forming on her lips as tears gathered her eyes.

She struggled to keep them from falling.

“Liu Wei, thank you. “

She smiled a bit more, a chuckle escaping her lips.

“Thank you… “

“Shh…, you don’t need to thank me Liling, I can do anything, anything for you. You just have to trust me, okay? “

Liu Wei’s words conveyed his deepest emotions, emotions hidden in the depths of his heart.

As she heard him, her heart began to shatter.

“Liu Wei…, I’m becoming reliant on you but… but I don’t want to… “

The atmosphere became tense as those words left her lips, the TV totally forgotten.

Liu Wei sat upright immediately and his brows creased in sadness.

“Why?, why don’t you want to? “

He sat up and held her chin, gazing into her pitch black eyes.

Liling struggled to look away, but Liu Wei did not let her.

“Please, Liling, talk to me. I’m here for you.”

“What… what happens when I stop living here and our deal is over, and I don’t have you anymore, what will I do then?.

I want to be able to stand on my own, I want to be able to deal with my problems, on my own…

Someone had forgotten that she would soon leave one day…

Liu Wei was brought back to reality. He had totally forgotten about their deal. He had forgotten that in a few months, she would stop living with him.

How time flies…

He felt his heart squeeze as she reminded him. She was still complaining bitterly, but he didn’t care to hear any of them anymore. He just pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly.
