Chapter 448: Under a spell(3)
"Do you have any good reason to keep staying?" Han Xichen asked her after a long pause.
She thought about it for a while before listing her reasons out. "Yeah, I already found a job, which was something I had been dreaming of for a while. I met some new friends too. Besides, I think I like it here more than in Australia. I grew up there anyways, a little change wouldn’t hurt."
Most importantly, I met you. She concluded in a soft voice in her mind, not daring to directly voice her thoughts that she believed would make him find her strange. He did not say anything but he had a feeling that there was something that she left unsaid. When she was ready to say it, she would talk about it. Until then, he decided that he would not probe.
He studied her expression that looked excited when she talked about the comparison between B City and the City where she had grown up. Although she would miss her parents if she did not follow them, she would miss Xiehan and Lanni if she went back with her parents. Aside from missing her parents, there didn’t seem to be anything else that made her want to go back.
It was clear where the young lady’s heart really was.
"Have you ever thought about your future?" He asked out of the blue.
"The future?" She was baffled at the sudden change of topic. They were talking about her urge and reluctance to follow her parents. When did the topic morph to her future?
He resisted the urge to tap her forehead as she looked cute with her eyes widened in surprise. "Yes. When you get married and have kids."
He talked about the matter of marriage and kids so casually that it made her cheeks burn up. It was a normal topic, why was her reaction so exaggerated?
