Chapter 517: Too Comfortable
Cali woke up past midnight to go to the restroom. She glanced at the clock and saw it was past three am. She was about to go back to bed when she felt her stomach grumbling.
"Weird..." she murmured, because she suddenly craved for hot chocolate and some bread.
Cali tried to sleep but couldn’t do so, and finally decided to get up to attack the kitchen. Her forehead creased seeing the lights of Rui’s bar area were put on. She walked towards it, and saw Rui sitting lonely there as he drank.
"You didn’t sleep yet? What are you doing here alone?" Cali asked as she approached him.
Rui saw her approaching him and smiled at her and muttered, "why are you awake? Were you waiting for me?"
"Huh? Did you go somewhere?" Cali asked as she sat beside him.
"And why are you drinking at this hour? Are you facing some problem? You should not drink like that at this hour." She continued with lifted eyebrows while scrutinizing the level of the remaining brandy in the bottle. He had quite a lot to drink and was looking a little tipsy as well.
Rui chuckled lightly when he heard her concerned tone. A melancholic expression crossed his face. He missed Cali scolding him like this. Then he heaved a long deep sigh and said, "I went to see Kane..."
"What?!" Cali exclaimed with a little fear in her heart.
