Chapter 178 It Takes Two To Tango
In the morning, after taking out the quilt and basking it in the sun, Andy took a taxi to the cemetery.
Eric exposed what had happened to Vivian’s mother. So that she had no home there. Besides, Andy had to take Jane with her. She didn’t know when she would come back this time, so she had to say goodbye to her mother in person.
Before she went to the flower shop, she bought her mother and grandmother’s favorite camellias, which were also her favorite flowers.
The taxi couldn’t go up the mountain, so it had to wait at the foot of the mountain. So, Andy had to walk up with the flowers in her arms.
When she was about to arrive, she turned a corner and saw a strange man standing in front of her mother and grandmother’s tombstone from a distance.
The man was about the same age as Peter. He looked gloomy and cold. But when he stood there, people could not help but be vigilant.
Suddenly, the man turned his head and looked at her.
One glance made her feel like she was facing a ghost crawling out of the hell. She was afraid from the bottom of her heart.
She hurriedly avoided his gaze, pretended to stop in front of the nearby tombstone, and tidy up her clothes to distract her attention.
After a while, she looked up again, but the man had disappeared.
She turned around but didn’t find the man.
A mirage? Only in the desert.
He was a stranger to her, so she didn’t take it seriously. She adjusted herself and continued to walk forward.
Putting the flowers on the ground, she took a look at the photos of her mother and grandmother. Then she walked to the middle of the cement ground and sat down by her mother’s tombstone.
“Mom, I’m here to see you.”
“I’m sorry. I haven’t come to see you for a long time. I have to go now.”
“Mom, I met a person. I want to see him, but I don’t dare to see him. Am I useless?”
“Let’s stop talking about this. Mom, Vivian is in a bad condition now. You must bless her and make her recover soon.”
“Mom, I only have Jane and Vivian. You will support me, won’t you?”
…
It took her more than an hour to leave.
When she left, the taxi driver couldn’t wait and had already left. It took her some time to call a taxi.
When she went back to the community, she turned over the quilt and dusted it.
When Bill arrived, he saw her slapping the sheet hard in the sun.
He stood still and lost in thought.
As far as he could remember, his mother also liked to do such things. The quilt of the whole family must be dried and beaten by herself. He had never seen her quiet and elegant appearance since her mother passed away. He had never paid attention to it, or he was afraid of touching the scene. In short, he had forgotten it.
When she felt uncomfortable and turned around, she met his affectionate eyes.
Her heart beat uncontrollably again.
She was nervous, or guilty. Subconsciously, she withdrew her hand from the quilt.
Bill calmly stepped forward and stopped in front of her.
When the four eyes met, Andy was like a coward who had done something bad. She took the initiative to smile to cover up the embarrassment.
She shook her arm awkwardly, pointed at the quilt beside her and explained, ” it is good to bask in the sun.”
He fixed his eyes on her without any doubt.
The gaze made her blush. She took back her courage that she had tried hard to muster and lowered her head quietly to avoid the heat in his eyes.
“Can you stop hiding from me?” Bill suddenly asked.
He paused for two seconds and continued, “I have a feeling in my heart that I want to confirm to you that I…”
“Don’t say it,” said Andy, before he could finish his words. “No matter what you say, I won’t cooperate.”
At this moment, she realized that she knew what he was thinking, but she dared not and was unwilling to face it.
Bill read her mind and looked away.
Women didn’t know women best. At least, what Jessica said this time was not completely right.
But he was more irritated.
If he didn’t make it clear, he would have a chance to get close to her. But after talking it publicly, she still didn’t nod. What excuses could he find to go around her?
Taking a deep breath, she pulled herself together and looked up at him stubbornly. “it takes two to tango. Mr. Huo, this is my answer. You are smart enough to understand what I mean.”
He narrowed his eyes and stared at her face, deep in thought.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Just now, he had told her that one person couldn’t do two people’s things, but now these words came out from Andy’s mouth. Was this a tacit understanding?
Of course, that was not the point.
After half a minute of silence, Bill raised his right hand and patted his left chest.
“Bang, bang, Bang –”
Just a low voice.
Andy immediately understood what he meant. In this way, it takes one to tango.
Bill wanted to tell her that there was nothing impossible. He wanted her and he was sure to marry her.
Andy shook her head subconsciously, “so what?”
“Bob and Vivian loved each other so much. Now, she almost died!”
“Bill, we are different from you. I’m not interested in playing a love game with you. I’m not interested in the feelings of being distant and afraid of losing, either.”
Bill didn’t move and let her blame him. After confirming that she had finished her words, he explained seriously, “I used to think of you as Sharon. Maybe I thought it was a game, but since I was willing to accept the imperfection of Sharon for the sake of Andy, this is no longer a game.”
Andy didn’t understand what he meant. She just grasped the name of Sharon as a life-saving straw in a hurry. “In that case, you can go to find Sharon. Anyway, what she wants most is being your wife. Why do you come here to trouble me?”
“Okay!” All of a sudden, he raised his voice and looked at her seriously. “Then I’ll make it clear to you. If I didn’t think that you were Andy, you were a part of Sharon, I wouldn’t have accepted her and engaged to her. The person who I really care about is you. Do you understand?”
He thought he would lose to her.
The city wall in his heart had already collapsed. As the city guard, what else could he do to be strong.
If it was destined to be die, he was willing to fall.
Andy opened her mouth slightly but couldn’t speak for a long time.
Bill wanted to marry her, which could not be clearer.
But that was what she was afraid of!
The reason why he liked her was that he only saw her radiant appearance just like Edward and peter.
What if he knew she’s terrible side?
He gritted his teeth when he mentioned Sharon. His face changed when he heard her. One day, it would fall on her.
Because she also lied to him and set him up.
