After a pause, Simon hugged Vana and said, “I should have let you be the shop manager.”
Vana smiled and said, “So you are really protecting me? Then how should I do to repay you for what you have done to me? I don’t have any ability now. I’m still a worm attached to your company.”
Simon rubbed the back of her head and mumbled, “Don’t say you are a worm. Just don’t leave me.”
Although it was a simple sentence of love, it made Vana deeply moved. When Vana was still immersed in the warm embrace of Simon, an idea suddenly popped up in her mind.
Vana got close to Simon’s ear and said in a low voice, “How about I give myself to you as a gift tonight?”
Feeling that Simon’s body froze, Vana subconsciously licked Simon’s earlobe, but Simon immediately pushed away her body as if he was frightened by something from Vana. He put two hands on Vana’s arms and looked at her at the same level. Vana couldn’t help but stare at Simon in confusion.
Simon frowned and was anxious for a while. Finally, he turned his head and said to Vana, “We are outside. Don’t say such explicit words.”
Puzzled, Vana tilted her head to look at Simon and said, “Are you sure these words are explicit?”
Simon frowned and glanced at Vana. Finally, he loosened his hands on Vana’s body and said, “Well, it’s time for dinner.”
However, as if Vana was determined to express her determination to Simon, she got close to Simon and hung herself around Simon’s neck with her hands. “No, no, no. I want to give myself to you. I’m telling you, I just bought a lot of cream at home, and there is also fresh milk. It’s said that applying these things on my body will increase a lot of fun.”
After Vana finished her words, it was the first time that Simon blushed in front of her, and he seemed to be in a bad condition. Since Vana had said that, he didn’t respond at all, which made Vana very shy.
Vana’s face was red and her heart was beating fast. She stared at Simon for a long time. Simon’s expression was very subtle, and there had never been a smile on his face again. Then he slowly pulled her hands off his neck and helped her to sit in a quiet posture. Then Simon stood up and walked back to the opposite seat.
Vana was confused. She quickly glanced at the lower part of Simon’s body. When she saw that some part of his body had reacted, she was even more confused.
Was it because that Simon was too busy recently and didn’t have much desire for those things?
Vana immediately felt that she was too pretentious. The awkwardness of being ignored after the seduction made her feel a little ashamed. But soon, the waiter in the uniform knocked on the door and broke the situation of the two. Vana shifted her attention from the matter of Simon to the food.
During the meal, Vana found that Simon, who seldom ate seafood, had been eating lobsters and crabs, while the raw fish and some bean products were all eaten by her.
After the meal, Simon took Vana back to the villa. Originally, Vana wanted to live in her rental house, but Simon took her home with the excuse that the bed was too small and the heating was not warm enough.
At first, Vana thought that the atmosphere between her and Simon would break the ice at night, but at night, Simon suddenly proposed to sleep in separate rooms. And then she was driven to the room that was redecorated by Simon when she agreed to move in. When she was lying on the warm big bed in a daze, the whole action of Simon tonight shocked her and made her unable to sleep.
Did Simon not like her anymore?
Pink wallpapers, peachy red quilts, pure white and soft sheets, candy colored pillows, the whole room was pink and tender, like a princess’s room in the fairy tale world.
Lying on the bed, Vana looked at the colorful lights hanging not far away. She thought she should comfort Simon if he was tired from work, so she took out her mobile phone and quickly edited a message.
[Simon, have you been very tired recently? ]
Soon, Simon replied, [No, I’m not tired. You have to go to bed early, or you won’t be able to get up early tomorrow morning! ]
But Vana was not in the mood to sleep. Now she really wanted to go to Simon’s room to ask him face to face. But when she was driven away before, she heard that Simon had locked the door, so it was impossible for her to go there.
[Are you really not tired? But why do we sleep in separate rooms? Don’t you love me anymore? ]
Vana acted coquettishly on purpose to see if Simon would tell her the truth.
But Simon just simply replied, [I love you. Good girl, go to bed early. I have something to deal with. ]
It seemed that Simon had some work to deal with, so Vana put down her phone and decided to go to bed first and talk about it tomorrow.
But it would take Vana at least half a night to fall asleep if she changed the bed, so she tossed and turned on the bed and couldn’t fall asleep. On the other side of the wall, Simon was sitting on the bed with a iPad in his hand, typing on it, “the characteristics of pregnancy.”
Then he patiently browsed the web pages he had searched, and found that several features written on it had recently appeared on Vana.
Simon frowned and thought for a while. At last, he typed, “The harm of becoming pregnant when getting drunk.”
This time, Simon was a little restless. When he saw the answers of many experts on most of the web pages, which included the words “newborn abnormalities”, “intellectual decline”, “mental paralysis”, he realized what a mistake he had made.
Then, Simon searched the relevant pictures again. When he saw those pitiful and powerless pictures, he slowly lowered his head and covered his forehead with her palm.
It was already half past ten at night. After nearly two hours, Vana was about to fall asleep. Suddenly, a new text message sound rang on her phone.
In a trance, Vana turned her head to look at her phone. The screen of her phone on the bedside table showed the message of Simon, and she was immediately awakened and took her phone to check it.
[Vana, I love you. Go to bed early! ]
“What’s wrong with Simon? Has he just finished his work?” Vana lay and mumbled on the bed. Then she held the phone and smiled at ease. She slowly fell asleep.
Wednesday came soon. Vana was on duty in the afternoon, but Charles’s premiere was at half past nine in the evening. She had told Simon a day in advance that she would go to the premiere of the Holy Ruins with her good friend. And Simon also complained to her why she didn’t go with him, and she refused Simon with the excuse of accompanying her bestie.
In fact, she didn’t want Simon to know that she had another deal with Charles secretly. After all, if Simon asked about it, it would involve the one hundred days anniversary.
And the one hundred days anniversary was closer.
