Chapter 590: Knocking on Her Door at Midnight


    The sound of the sea whizzes past his ears which makes atmosphere at the streets cozier. Ryan puts


    his hands in the pockets, stopping his steps slightly. He looks at her seriously and says, “You really like


    Adair.”


    This time, he isn’t asking her a question, but instead he is dering a statement.


    Without evading his statement, Eunice admits, “You’re right, he’s a sweet boy.”


    “Why?” He asks suddenly.


    Eunice nearly forgets to react; it takes a few seconds for her to realize that he is asking her why she


    likes Adair.


    “No reason. I just feel he’s pure and innocent. A child’s heart is not asplicated as that of an adult.


    Furthermore, a child is a gift from God. He has a good heart, so I’m especially fond of him.” Tang says


    in a soft tone. Her eyes are filled with gentle and care, which she appears to be more of a soft woman


    than usual.


    Every woman is born with maternal instinct. At that moment, Ryan indeed feels this characteristic in


    her.


    There’s a strange feeling in his heart. This emotion has continuously appeared recently, which makes


    him want to avoid reality unwittingly. He can’t really tell why, it’s just that the woman beside him seems


    much different from usual.


    Eunice leans at the railing by the seaside and looks at the dark and silent sea in a distance. When the


    moonlight streams upon the sea, the tide reflects these moonlight, causing the glistening light of waves


    to ripple. The view is as though a gxy sprinkles on the ocean.


    She grabs her phone out from her pocket and takes a picture of the sea. When she is about to put it


    back into her pocket, she catches a glimpse at a man leaning against the railing. He puts his slender


    left arm on the railing, and his right arm slightly bends as he is slowly smoking his cigarette. The night


    wind blows and slightly messes his hair, but he doesn’t seem to care about it.


    The street lights are not too bright, and most of them are faint yellowish. However, the light that falls on


    him is even more mesmerizing than the ocean.


    Before knowing Ryan, Eunice always thinks that a man’s attractiveness is based on his facial figures.


    But after meeting him, she realizes that there is a kind of attractiveness that has nothing to do with


    looks. It is about personality and charisma. It is about how he has the ability to attract and capture


    people’s attention just by standing there.


    The sparks produced by the cigarette on his fingertips are as if her mood right now. Maybe it’s because


    of her obsession with his appearance, she quickly lifts her arm and snaps a photo of him.


    “Click.” The sound of her phone buzzes in mid-air. Awkwardness hits her as she has forgotten to mute


    her phone.


    Then, their eyes meet and Eunice’s face glows extremely red. Her first reaction is... to immediately put


    her phone back into her pocket.


    Ryan stuns for a second, and his charming face disappears as he pulls a face in an instant, “Delete it.”


    “What?” She pretends that nothing has happened just now.


    “The photo.” His softly spits out these two words as he repeats his words again, “Delete it.”


    “It is a nice shot though...” Somehow, Eunice does not want to delete the photo. She exins again, “I


    found a perfect camera angle, and the lighting was on point too. You look good here.”


    “I don’t like taking pictures.” His words are short and concise as he doesn’t want to say a word more.


    Eunice stands still and doesn’t move. While she is taking the advantage to get over it, the man that is


    leaning against the railing walks towards her.


    The distance between them is not too far that it takes only three to five steps to reach her. His tall figure


    blocks the light ray above her head, recing it with his shadow.


    Eunice raises her head and looks at his face, “What, what do you want?”


    Facing this woman who is obviously afraid but doesn’t want topromise, Ryan never says much


    and directly reaches his hand into her pocket to grab her phone.


    Eunice moves back several steps to avoid him, until her back touches the railing. Hence, she has no


    choice but to stop her step.


    As she keeps dodging him, Ryan bes impatient. He stretches out his hand to grab both of her


    wrists, and his other hand reaches into her pocket to get her phone. When he is about to take it out, a


    soft voice sounds in a distance...


    “Ryan, Eunice, what are you doing?”


    Ryan’s movement bes stiff, and so is Eunice. She immediately breaks free from his hand when he


    isn’t paying attention. Then, she stuffs her phone back into her pocket and turns to Adair, “Ryan is just


    ying around with Eunice. Are you done watching the sea?”


    “Yeah, I feel a little cold now. I want to go back to the hotel.” Not sure if it is because of the breeze,


    Adair’s nose seems a little stuffy.


    Eunice worries that Adair will catch a cold, she tidies up her coat on him, “Alright, let’s go back now.”


    Ryan watches her slipping away just like that. When Eunice and Adair pass through him, he notices the


    slyness in her eyes.


    Are you pleased?


    When Adair isn’t around, you’ll have to delete that photo too.


    On the road by the seaside, their shadows stretch long by the lights above their heads. Ryan follows


    them at the back without any expression, but he adjusts his pace ording to the two of them


    thoroughly.

    ...


    After a fifteen-minute walk back to the hotel, they take the elevator to the hotel room and she specially


    orders Ryan, “The sea breeze tonight is very cool. Let Adair takes a hot bathter, or else he might


    catch a cold.”


    “Okay.” Ryan responds. He holds the kid’s hand and walks into the room.


    Eunice returns to her room. Her room is located higher than theirs. When she looks out of the window,


    it is the huge ocean that she has just passed by. She changes her clothes and stops when she


    identally touches the cell phone in her pocket.


    She takes out her phone and unlocks it. Her screen is still disying the photo that she has taken


    earlier. No matter how many times she looks at it, whether she sees it with her own eyes or through the


    phone, she can’t resist his attractiveness.


    Eunice looks at her phone for a while and puts it back. She lies on the sofa at the end of the bed and


    falls into deep thought.


    This sudden vacation to Q city is an opportunity to reunite and meet again ever since she returns to the


    country. She hasn’t thought much about Ryan before this. She just feels that he is a mysterious and


    formidable man. They are at apletely different level, hence they will not have much chance to


    socialize with each other.


    The only connection that they have now is the four hundred thousand dors. After clearing her debt,


    they will not see each other anymore.


    But after splitting up, she has a strange feeling, an emotion that she doesn’t know how to express. Until


    this trip to Q city, she has the chance to see his face again and spends time together. Everything is the


    same as before, but at the same time it seems different too.


    Things have changed unintentionally.


    She starts staring attentively at this man, and automatically do minor things to make him happy. She


    will also be lost in thought by his words, trying to understand the meaning behind it.


    These behaviors have never urred on her before.


    Just as Eunice is still confused and thinking about it, her doorbell suddenly rings. She gets up, walks to


    the door and asks carefully, “Who is it?”


    “Me.” A familiar voice spreads to her ear.


    She opens the door at ease, and unexpectedly the man is wearing a white robe, standing outside her


    door with a pale face.
