Ye Chen made a resolute decision, gently laying Ning Yuxi down on the bed. Just as he was about to rise and leave, Ning Yuxi's hands tightly clutched Ye Chen's.
Ye Chen's body shook, his gaze fixed directly on Ning Yuxi's eyes.
It was at this moment that a grating ringtone from a cell phone interrupted the silence.
The once passionate pair was doused with cold water, their movements suddenly becoming stiff.
"Ah."
With an exclamation, Ning Yuxi was startled awake by the ring of the phone, hurriedly answering the call.
Watching Ning Yuxi's panicked face, Ye Chen also calmed down somewhat, his heart in turmoil.
On the other end, Ning Yuxi spoke in a low voice for a few moments before hanging up the phone, her eyes darting away, too scared to meet Ye Chen's gaze.
She had intended to take advantage of her inebriation to make a bold move, but that phone call had completely disrupted her plans.
Making such a move now seemed as difficult as Climbing to Heaven.
