A Billion Dollar Exchange-Chapter 110: Why do I still like You?

.....

Earlier that morning....

Liu Wei woke up around six am to an incessant ringing of his phone. He rubbed his eyes and picked up his phone from the bedside, then looked at the screen. It was his father calling.

'Why was he calling so early in the morning? '

Swiping the phone, he picked up the call.

"Son, I would be coming to your house today, be there!" 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶

Before Liu Wei could utter a word, his father had cut the call. He stared at the screen for sometime after which, he dropped the phone by his side.

Wondering why his father wanted to come over, anytime he wanted to see him, he would invite him to the family house, he was quite surprised he wanted to come to his house.

He rubbed his eyes and turned over to the other side, his eyes immediately fell on the body on the ground.

Liling had rolled from the sofa and fallen to the ground, her long hair all over her face.

Liu Wei laughed at her bad sleeping attitude and quietly stood up from the bed and walked towards her. He bent down and picked her up from the ground and placed her back on the sofa.

But before he could stand up, she had rolled over and if not for his quick reflexes she would have landed on the ground again.

Liu Wei watched the sleeping woman in his arms.

'How could someone sleep this deep! She didn't even know what was happening around her. '

Thinking about the few hours he had spent close to her, he couldn't help but smile.

He knew she was a very beautiful person inside, she just needed the right person, which he wanted to be, if she could just open up her heart!

Was he selfish? Yes, he knew that she would find it difficult to take care of him, but he did not care. He just wanted her close to him.

What have you done to me, this little woman? '

Liu Wei asked himself as he held her in his arms, he could feel her heart beating calmly and peacefully.

There was no emotion on her face, she just slept soundly like a newborn.

Standing up, Liu Wei carried her to his bed and dropped her quietly. He used the quilt to cover her body properly.

His father was coming that day, he didn't want him finding out that he was 'paralyzed' and start asking numerous questions which he wasn't prepared to answer, so that was a goodbye to his 'paralysis' and besides, he didn't want her bathing him either.

He had enjoyed her company but he wouldn't pretend forever.

After he had covered her properly, he sat by her side watching her as she slept.

He may not have loved before, but he knew that there was something about this person that always drew him close.

After God knows how long, Liu Wei finally stood up and walked to his gym for an exercise after which he took a bath and stepped out, Liling was still sleeping but the quilt had been kicked to the ground.
