Chapter 170

In the end, he bent down but as he drew closer to her, he halted . The next moment, he stood up again and almost turned around, but then decided not to . Jun Kai couldn't help but sigh with frustration .

He bent down to pick the book up and placed it on top of Mi Rong and decided to leave, but halted . Jun Kai's lips were pursed and once again he slowly bent forward and gently slid one hand behind her head and down to her neck and his other hand under her legs . Jun Kai then carefully lifted the lady who had been sleeping soundly on the sofa waiting for him . He lifted her up in a princess position .  

However, just as she was about to fall in his arms, her eyes popped open . Seeing the other person's face made her question her eyes . Was she still dreaming? Else he would not be holding her like this, so she was surely dreaming .  

Advertis.e.m.e.ntJust like her fast reflex, her thoughts were fast to process and she had finished her conclusion of everything . Gradually, she fell back to sleep again, this time slowly leaning her head on Jun Kai's chest . She softly placed her head to the closest support and fell back to sleep again .

Jun Kai did not realize that Mi Rong had woken up and simply thought that the woman in his arms was slightly cold since she kept drawing herself closer to the warmth coming from him . On the other, Jun Kai did not mind the closeness of the other person . He merely walked up the stairs, but his pace was rather slower than usual . It was as if he wanted to cherish this moment .

A beauty was in his arm, but his expression looked lost; lost in his thoughts . However, what else would he think of except for the beauty in his arms . She looked indeed peaceful with her eyes closed, something he would not often see .

Once he arrived at the top of the staircase, his head began to feel slightly sore . Jun Kai had thought of bringing her into her room, but his fuzzy mind saw the book in her arms and decided with a swift of moment to bring her to his room . He couldn't be bothered to think with his half intoxicated mind .

His tall figure went inside his room and went ahead to his bed . Jun Kai did not think much and softly placed her on his bed . However, he did not think that he would have estimated his actions wrongly that he almost fell on top of her . One of his arms were now stuck behind her body and he was faced with another frustration . Though he was almost sober, his body did not cooperate with him .

Now, Mi Rong's face was so close to him that he could feel her soft breath on his face . Her scent was lingering everywhere around him . He could not keep his eyes away from her . From her eyes to her full lips, he was entirely immersed into her .

Soon, Jun Kai could feel his body temperature rising by the moment and quickly decided he should get some cold air from outside . Gradually, he tried taking his arm from behind her . He was able to get his arm out, but as a result Mi Rong's whole body had also moved closer to him . Jun Kai froze . His deep black eyes looked at the person who had drawn closer to him . Her brows were furrowed and she seemed to be saying something in her sleep . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

Full of curiosity, Jun Kai drew his ears closer to her to hear what she was saying . His brows too knitted .  

' . . . Imperial Father, Imperial Mother, Brother, . . . '

Imperial Father? What was the meaning of that? Jun Kai was puzzled . However, the next moment, his brows furrowed, even more, when Mi Rong spoke a name, unfamiliar to him .

' . . . . Jing w.a.n.g ge, where are you . . . "

She called him with such intimacy that he felt stuffy inside his heart . Who was that person? Was it her lover? Jun Kai pulled himself away slightly from her and he could see her crying . Some tears were falling down her face and onto the pillow .

Her beautiful face looked as if she was in immense pain and her breathing became unsteady .  

Was she having a nightmare? On the thought of her having a nightmare, he could not help but feel like the room became more suffocating . It was as if he did not like to see her in any sort of pain like he had once seen her in pain before, but he did not know when . Nevertheless, he reached out the arm that was free closer to her face .

His thumb couldn't help but trace her eyes that were still closed and wiped the tear off of her face, but his movement was not as soft and Mi Rong's lashes fluttered before slowly opening .
