When they arrived at the porch, Jared was bending over to change his shoes. Amber opened the door.
The moment the door was opened, a gust of cold air rushed toward her.
Amber shivered unconsciously.
Seeing that, Jared frowned. Then he took off the scarf from his neck, unfolded it, and put it on her shoulder. "I should have asked you to wear more when you came out just now. Well, don't stand here. Go back to your room."
"I'm fine." Amber shook her head and grabbed the scarf on her shoulder. "It won't be long before you leave. I won't catch a cold. I've never seen you off when you go to work. It's an amazing feeling. I want to have a try, so don't let me go."
Looking at the light in her eyes, Jared decided not to ask her to go back first.
He raised his hand and gently stroked her head. "Okay, I won't let you go. You can stand here if you want. But you don't have to send me to the elevator."
"Okay." Amber nodded.
She knew very well that even if she wanted to send him to the elevator, he would not agree.
It would only be colder outside. Even if she insisted on seeing him off, he would not agree. It was his line to let her stand here.
So she'd better not go against him.
Seeing that Amber agreed obediently, Jared was satisfied. He took his hand away from her head and gently held her in his arms. He rested his chin on her shoulder and said gently, "Okay, I'm leaving. See you tonight."
"See you tonight. Be careful on the way." Amber also raised her hand, hugged him back, and patted him on the back.
Jared chuckled, "I will. It's cold outside. Go back to the room."
After saying that, he let go of her.
Amber nodded and said, "Okay, you can leave now. I will go back to my room as soon as I see you leave."
The implication was that if he didn't leave, she wouldn't go back to her room.
Jared had no choice but to turn around and walk forward.
But when he just took a step forward, he stopped, turned around, held her in his arms again, lowered his head, and kissed her hard.
Amber was stunned at first, but then she reacted and put her arms around his neck to kiss back.
Jared knew what he should do. He knew that he had to go to work and that she was feeling cold.
Therefore, he didn't kiss her for long. After about a minute, he let her go.
Looking at Amber's red lips, Jared wiped the saliva on the corner of her lips with his thumb and smiled with satisfaction. "I'm leaving."
"Okay." Amber nodded breathlessly with a red face.
Jared let go of her, turned around, and walked forward.
This time, he didn't stop, nor did he come back to hug and kiss her. He walked straight ahead.
Amber just stood at the door and watched him off.
It was not until Jared went to the elevator that he turned around and waved at her. She also raised her hand and waved at him. Seeing him enter the elevator, she put down her hand, restrained the smile on her face, closed the door, and went back to her room.
It was really cold outside, but the room was warm.
Amber quickly took off her shoes and crawled into the quilt. The quilt was still warm. As soon as she entered, all the warmth came to her, which instantly warmed her shivering body.
"It's comfortable." Lying on the pillow, Amber stretched herself comfortably and closed her eyes, ready to sleep a little longer.
After all, it was still early.
But unfortunately, her sleepiness was completely gone after the kiss just now.
That was to say, she couldn't fall asleep.
Amber opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling. She threw off the quilt with both hands and moved it to cover only her belly. She sighed helplessly, "I can't fall asleep!"
Jared was right. She couldn't fall asleep after seeing him off.
She couldn't fall asleep at all.
Amber vented her bad emotions by kicking her feet and making the quilt messier. Then she calmed down and turned to look at the position where Jared had lied.
