Under the night sky, countless secrets were hidden, and those secrets made people bleed all over just to unravel them.
The secret in Wendy's heart had been revealed, and Duke was almost unable to hide his anymore. He lost his mind in his secret and forgot that he was still cooking there, the food was over burnt and scorched.
Wendy had a sharp nose, after smelling the hint of danger, she immediately dashed into the kitchen, and saw the man cooking with one hand, staring at the pot with blank eyes, but he did not stir or move.
"Hey, Duke, your thing is burnt." Wendy said anxiously as she ran in.
Only then did Duke realize that he had burnt a bowl of vegetables. He quickly turned off the fire as a look of embarrassment flashed across his handsome face.
He had just said that he knew how to cook, but now he had burnt the food. He felt rather humiliated.
Wendy walked to the front of him and asked while smiling: "What are you daydreaming for? "All of you, stop cooking properly."
Duke wanted to refute her, but found that he had nothing to say, and could only silently wash the wok clean.
"Is what I just said making someone unhappy?" Wendy asked somewhat nervously.
"No!" Duke replied softly.
The nervousness in Wendy's heart dissipated a bit, and then she whispered: "Are you not in the mood of cooking? "Why don't we go out to have dinner? There must be a restaurant nearby."
Duke looked at her, then suddenly, his tall body moved forward, pushing Wendy who seemed to be using all her strength, yet was exceptionally gentle, towards the side of the wall.
Wendy did not expect him to suddenly press closer. She did not even have time to react before her back was attached into the wall. A big hand came from behind her head and blocked her attack.
The man's handsome face was very close to her, his aura was practically spraying all over her face, causing Wendy's breathing to stop, her clear eyes staring at the man's face which was close by, his mind a blank.
Duke's gloomy eyes focused on her tightly. The dark light in his eyes flickered, as if it wanted to carve her beautiful little face into his bone marrow. He didn't make any movement or take a step closer, only looking at her from such a close distance.
Wendy was a little panicked, and every time she was nervous, she would bite her lips and swallow down her saliva. Thus, this time, she still bit her lower lip subconsciously, only that when she released her lips, that pink and tender flower petal like color on her face directly struck at the man's brain of reason.
Duke's breath quickened, he suddenly went closer, and closer, his lips almost touching her soft lips.
Wendy closed her eyes, anxiously and expectantly waiting for him to kiss her.
Unfortunately, the man stopped again, as if something was tugging at his reason and willpower, causing him to not dare to kiss her.
In the end, Wendy felt the weight on her disappeared, and the man actually abandoned her and left.
Wendy's brain returned to normal, but she was still so slow that she couldn't even turn around. She could only blink her eyes hard in an attempt to figure out what had just happened.
However, no matter how she thought about it, she just couldn't understand. Just now, she clearly knew that he was going to kiss her, so why did he release her and leave?
Wendy immediately turned around and ran out. She saw Duke standing alone at the balcony, a cigarette in his hand. When Wendy ran over, Duke was so anxious that he wanted to extinguish the cigarette.
"Why didn't you kiss me?" The first sentence Wendy spoke was bold enough to make a man look at her strangely. Duke immediately blushed all over, and looked at the scenery in the distance: "I can't do this right now."
Only then did he realize that the girl's face was covered in tears. Her thick, long eyelashes were still covered in water mist. Under the light, her face shone brightly. It was extremely beautiful.
Duke couldn't help but press his body down, and his thin lips pressed onto her two large eyes. Wendy was so frightened that she hurriedly closed his eyes, and Duke's lips lightly pressed against her eyelids, making them itch.
"You're right. When we're together, we never bother others, we don't have to worry about those rules, and we don't even need to talk about the rules." The knot in Duke's heart had been unraveled by her words. He was actually not a person who liked to tie himself up in a cocoon, his chest had always been as wide as the ocean and the prairie. He did not want to be the center of attention anymore, because that would make those who loved him cry in sorrow.
Hearing his low voice, Wendy's heart was filled with joy. Suddenly, she found the sunny youth from the past, and her beautiful eyes had a smile, this time, she no longer had to dream, but she could actually hug him, and placed her face close to his chest.
The man's arms gently embraced her as his lips pressed against her head.
After hugging for a while, the previously warm atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
The man let go of Wendy's arm and Wendy immediately took a step back. "It's almost eight o'clock, can I still have the dinner you made?"
Duke froze for a moment, then remembered that the reason he called her over was to have dinner together, but not to talk about love.
"Of course." Duke caressed her hair with a smile, purposely messing with her.
Wendy quickly reached out and pushed away his big hands: "Hurry and go to cook for me, I'm hungry."
Duke accepted her order and went to prepare dinner, Wendy leaned on the glass door, and saw a bustling night scene, she felt extremely good, in the past, she always felt that a girl should always wait for the boy she loves to come for her, but if she did not say out what was in her heart, even if the girl loves him, the boy did not know.
Around eight—thirty, Duke finally finished preparing all of the food. Seeing the table was full of delicacies, Wendy couldn't help but take photos for remembrance, and then took up forks, "Un, it's even more delicious than the food my brother makes."
