8.81 Big Liar*

Compared to his suave appearance earlier, Ellen was more laid-back and relaxed now. 

His furry coat had disappeared to God-knows-where, and he had tugged his tie loose, the top two buttons undone to show a flash of unblemished jade skin. His hair was windswept and a bit messy, yet it framed his lovely face even more gorgeously. The thin layer of make-up on it was still intact, accentuating his high cheekbones and delicate eyebrows. From such a close distance, he looked even more dazzling. 

Lu Yizhou simply couldn't get used to how beautiful his lover was no matter how many times he had seen him.

His heart almost leapt out of his chest, yearning to go to where it belonged. However, he firmly held himself back. Not because he did not want to, but the gaze Ellen sent him was still the same as earlier. It was that frosty, estranged, almost unfamiliar gaze. It was like he was looking at a total stranger.
