Alex took a deep breath and hesitated momentarily before mustering the courage to raise his hand and ring the doorbell.

The door opened quickly, and Jewel stood there, saying, “You’re back—” As soon as she saw the bandage on his neck, the smile that had been on her face moments earlier instantly transformed into a panic. “What happened to your neck?”

However, he said nothing and simply pulled her into his arms. Seemingly, this was the only way for him to feel even a modicum of relief from the nagging anxiety in his chest.

In the meantime, she was bewildered by his sudden embrace and asked, “What’s wrong with you?”

Then, Alex took a deep breath and mumbled, “It’s nothing. Just accidentally got cut by a knife. I nearly couldn’t see you anymore.”

He sighed helplessly upon hearing this. “Yeah. Some punk was asking for trouble, so I had to use my fists. Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

“Are there any other injuries?”

“No, there aren’t.”

Instantaneously, Alex panicked and grabbed Jewel’s hand, teasing, “What are you doing? Trying to get to know me better? Still, we can’t do that here. How about we get a room?” He purposefully made suggestive remarks, knowing she would surely blush and playfully glare at him as usual, saying, ‘Who wants to get a room with you?’

However, she seemed different today. Not only was she not shy, but she also looked directly into his eyes, her gaze filled with a hint of sharpness. “Let’s go to a room and check it out?”
