Sherman didn't plan to bring a suitcase with her. She didn't like dragging a heavy suitcase. She didn't feel the need to bring any clothes. Winter clothes were too heavy. She could buy some in Lanechett.
In the afternoon, Kingsley called her and said he had t o stay in Lanechett for two more days, and that he couldn't go back tonight.
Sherman didn't tell him she was going to Lanechett. She wanted to give him a surprise. Were people in love always so silly?
Kingsley told her he missed her very much and asked her to turn on the camera so they can talk through video telephone.
Sherman was having dinner. With the camera on, she felt tensed up under the man's burning gaze. She couldn't eat her dinner easily. She wanted to turn off the camera.
Kingsley forbade her. He hadn't seen her all day. Now, finally, he could see her cute face on the video. His eyes were so tender.
"Could you stop staring at me? I can't eat food..." His gaze was so fervent. It seemed they were going to burn her. Sherman blushed.
"I haven't had dinner either. I'll go get my dinner. Let's have dinner together..." Kingsley's tall body got up. When he returned, he brought dinner in his hands.
Sherman rubbed her brow. She felt helpless. It seemed Kingsley meant it to have dinner with her together through video telephone.
"Even though we are so far apart, we can still have dinner together. When I have you with me for dinner, I always eat much more than usual..."
Kingsley's voice was low. It always stirred her heart...
Since he already said so, Sherman couldn't turn off the camera. She let out a sigh. Soon, Kingsley had set u p his knife and fork. He sat at the table, his legs folded one upon another, and he picked up his knife and fork.
On the other side....
