Chapter 168 I Only Have My Eyes Set On You

Natalia nodded and closed her eyes.

They stayed at the hilltop and had waited for a long while.

The meteor still did not appear.

Natalia lied on Archie's lap and she was covered by his coat. She started to feel sleepy.

The surrounding temperature dropped when the night got darker. Natalia still felt a little cold although

she was covered by the coat. She moved closer to Archie in a daze for more warmth.

Archie looked down and fixed his eyes at her who was in his arms. He caressed her locks of hair with

his fingers and looked sympathetic.

They had no idea how long had passed, and the sky started to turn bright.

Dawn broke and the first sunlight shone on the tranquil land. Natalia was patted softly and woken up.

She opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was Archie's beautiful, chiseled face. His handsome

face was shrouded by vague halo and he looked divine.

She was dumbfounded by the beauty in front of her. She then narrowed her eyes with joy, extended her

hand and pinched his cheek. "It feels too wonderful to wake up in such a handsome man's arms every

day."

Archie did not stop her and he only spoke after she had done pinching, "The sky's gone bright. Let's

go."

Natalia sat up and looked around. As expected, everyone was packing their things with a disappointed

look, preparing to leave. She then scratched her scalp.

"What about the meteor? Was there any meteor last night?"

"No." Archie stood up, extended his hand and held her up. "Maybe the news had made some

mistakes."

"Aw..."

A disappointed look flashed across Natalia's face, she then nearly fell due to the extreme soreness of

her legs.

Archie was quick enough to hold her. He asked, "Have your legs gone numb?"

"Yeah." Natalia nodded. She stooped and hit her numb and sour legs.

Archie's eyes went somber and he stopped her. After putting on his coat, he took a step forward and

squatted before her.

"Get up."

Natalia was startled.

She hesitated when she saw his broad shoulders. "The mountain road is steep. I can walk on my own.

I'll be fine after resting for a while."

"Get, up!" Archie repeated.

Natalia bit her lower lip and could only climb to his back gently. Archie carried her up and they walked

down the hill together.

The mountain road was winding all the way down, and the dew last night had not dissipated. A layer of

mist was lingering among the mountains. They were instantly surrounded by coldness the moment the

wet air stimulated their skin as they walked in the mountains.

Natalia waved the branches that extended from both sides of the mountain road away and asked,

"Have you not slept the whole night yesterday?"

"Yeah."

"Then you must be very tired? Why don't you put me down and I'll walk on my own? It'll be fine if we

walk slower."

Archie did not do what she asked and he continued walking forward. He rumbled, "I'm not tired."

Afraid that she did not believe him, he paused and added, "I used to burn midnight oil when I'm busy

with work back then, I've gone used to it." NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Seeing how he insisted on carrying her, Natalia did not force him anymore. She lied on his back

obediently and allowed the sense of happiness to fill her heart.

"Archie, if you get old in the future and can't walk anymore, I could carry you as well. You can go

anywhere you want."

Archie finally could not hold back his laughter when he heard her innocent words. He said blandly,

"Could you possibly carry me?"

"Of course. I might look tiny, my strength is huge."

"Alright, I'll let you carry me in the future."

"Deal."

"Sure."

Natalia was brimmed with happiness and she felt that it was the happiest thing in the world.

To continue walking with her loved one until they went old, even without extreme excitements and

luxuries, as long as they were both healthy and could stay with each other for the rest of their life, it

would be enough.

They only reached the foot of the hill when it was noon. They were both starving and thirsty.

There were several local-looking restaurants at the foot of the hill, they randomly picked one and

entered.

After having lunch, they took a taxi for their way back. Natalia did not sleep well last night. She felt

exhausted and sleepy the moment she got into the car, and she fell deeply asleep shortly.

It was already evening when she woke up.

She got up from bed, rubbed her eyes and realized she had slept straight until sunset.

The French window of the bedroom was opened. The curtain billowed as the wind blew in. There was a

salty smell in the damp air.

She got down from the bed and walked towards the French window. She saw a huge and spacious

balcony outside. On the balcony there were a dining table and two chairs.

To the East, there was a misty sea of smoke. The fire-like sunset seemed like having ignited half of the

sky and the sky was reflected on the sea like a broken red brocade. Standing on the balcony, she

stretched out, narrowed her eyes slightly, and breathed the fresh air from the sea. She felt tired and

hungry.

A nice aroma came from downstairs. She smelled and her eyes gleamed. She turned around and ran

all the way to the kitchen.

She found Archie grilling beef steak in the kitchen as expected.

He was way more skilled when he grilled the beef steak, compared to the time when he cooked the

vegetables yesterday. Hearing her footsteps, he did not turn around. "You're awake?"

"Yeah." Natalia approached him to have a look. The steak was almost ready and raw vegetables had

been washed. It looked like he was going to make salad.

"Let me help you!"

She took the initiative to cut the vegetables for him. After reminding her to be careful with the knife, he

allowed her to do so.

Natalia finished cutting the vegetables and she put the salad sauce on top. The steak's aroma

appeared. She smelled hard and drooled. "What a nice smell."

Archie let out a smile and placed the grilled steak on the plate, asking her to take it out.

With the cool breeze, panoramic view from the terrace and the round table with two beef steak servings

and a salad on top, Archie took a bottle of red wine and went outside.

Their dinner was simple and delicate. They enjoyed their dinner while watching the sunset.

Natalia had a hard time cutting the beef steak on her plate with fork and knife, yet Archie already

finished cutting the steak on his plate and handed it to her.

She smiled sweetly, squinted and put a piece of steak into her mouth. The taste and the heat were just

right. The steak was tender and absolutely delicious.

She ate while looking at Archie who was sitting opposite to her.

Seeing his elegant movements, noble posture against the sunset and waves of the blue sea, she just

felt like it was the most beautiful picture in the world.

Archie raised his eyebrow and glimpsed at her. "What's wrong?"

Natalia smiled and shook her head. "Nothing, I just think you're handsome."

Her praise cheered him up and he could not help but let out a smile. He said complacently, "Of course."

"You're almost as handsome as Kelvin."

"Who's Kelvin?"

"He's the lead singer of a recently debuted band in another country. He's really handsome."

Archie instantly pulled down his face and he knocked her head. "Don't you have your eyes on other

men!"

Natalia caressed her head with a grin. "It's a basic respect towards a handsome guy, you know?"

Archie looked even unhappier.

Noticing something was not right, Natalia quickly spoke, "But I'll only have my eyes set on you."
