Vera was stuffed that meal.
Perhaps it was because of that kiss Vera felt as if she was in the clouds. When Quill asked her again, she admitted that she came before having her breakfast in a pitiful tone and face.
Then... Quill put a lot of food before her on the table and ordered her to finish them all.
"That's too much; how can I eat them all?" Vera complained secretly. If she had known this would happen, she would not have told him that she had not eaten breakfast.
"Finish them. I don't want you to pass out again later."
That left her with no choice. Vera dared not disobey his order and could only keep stuffing food into her mouth. But she was indeed starving. Besides, her Prince Charming prepared this lovely meal. He personally made them, so Vera ate quite satisfyingly.
After she was done, her stomach was a little bloated. She fell back on the seat and leaned on it. She touched her belly, and her expression looked a little painful.
"Are you too full?" Quill asked with a frown.
Vera was just about to say that she wasn't, but she burped just as she opened her mouth. She was shocked and stunned on the spot.
Just now... Had she made that sound? How could she make such a shameful sound in front of Quill?
When she realized what she had done, Vera quickly covered her mouth. Her eyes widened in disbelief, not wanting to look into his eyes.
But she slowly remembered what Quill said to her earlier and that kiss. He said that she needn't be so cautious in front of him; she had really listened.
Perhaps, she could try to make it less awkward?
As she thought about it, Vera coughed lightly and looked at Quill with an innocent look. "It's all your fault that I'm too full now."
In other words, if he hadn't made her eat that much, she wouldn't have burped.
Quill froze for a moment when he heard Vera blaming him, and he looked at her.
Vera was there sitting at the dining table, wearing his shirt. The shirt hung loosely on her. Her hands were flat on top of her thighs, and she nervously grabbed the hem of the shirt. The sun shone in from the windows, beaming on her. There was a touch of pink on her fair cheeks, and her eyes seemed to be shining when she looked at him.
Quill's lips inexplicably curled up into a smile. "Okay, it's all my fault. Shall we do some exercise then?"
Vera's mind was inexplicably filled with suggestive thoughts when she heard the word 'exercise', and her face immediately turned red. However, she knew that Quill's words were not like what she thought. It was just that the meaning became distorted somehow.
Thinking of this, Vera immediately shook her head, trying to shake off the weird thoughts in her mind, and then nodded firmly. "Sure."
The two of them then went out for a walk.
It was a prosperous piece of land; security facilities were set up after the land was built into a private villa area. Non-residents weren't allowed to roam around at will. The only reason Vera was able to come in was that the security guard recognized her.
Many people were still in bed since it was the weekend. There were plants on both sides of the quiet path, and the air was fresh. Then Vera found that people were running at all hours as she had originally thought that no one would run at that hour. She didn't expect to meet a few people coming back from their jog while a few prepared to leave their places.
Then, she began to wonder, shouldn't they get up earlier to jog? Wasn't it hot at this hour?
As she was thinking about it, a pudgy middle-aged man jogged in their direction. Vera saw him coming and subconsciously moved over to Quill's side, allowing him more space to pass.
