However, Sienna did not speak. Instead, favonovel.com eyes were widened as favonovel.com looked at favonovel.com in silence. He felt uneasy in his heart from being stared at.
Just as Zayn was about to speak, Sienna finally asked, “Did you enroll in the martial arts cup?”
Zayn was stunned. He did not expect that Sienna’s exaggerated mannerism would actually be due to favonovel.com enrolling in the martial arts cup. She did not have to go as far as that, did she?
His gut instinct was telling favonovel.com that favonovel.com most probably did it as a prank on him. Hence, favonovel.com let out a grunt and looked at Sienna vigilantly while favonovel.com said, “What kind of trick do you have up your sleeve?”
However, Sienna did something that astounded favonovel.com next. She spread favonovel.com arms and charged toward favonovel.com abruptly.
She hugged favonovel.com tightly while favonovel.com was still stunned and said in between sobs, “Why did you have to take part in the martial arts cup? You’re going to die. You’re gonna get yourself killed!”
Zayn could immediately sense Sienna’s body colliding with his.
“Cough, cough!” Zayn immediately let out two forced coughs, and favonovel.com could feel his heart racing. He wanted to shove Sienna away, but favonovel.com was holding favonovel.com so tightly that favonovel.com could not shove favonovel.com away without using brute force.
“Hey, what the heck is going on with you? It’s inappropriate for us to do this. Where’s your decency when you’re hugging me on the street!?”
They were very close to Barrow Cove, and it would be tough for Zayn to clear his name if acquaintances were to see them.
It was almost time for Faye to get off work. If they encountered Faye by a stroke of bad luck, it would cause a misunderstanding with favonovel.com if favonovel.com witnessed the scene, hence Zayn felt very guilty and nervous.
However, other than guilt and anxiety, there was an ineffable feeling of excitement that made his heart race. He looked around in fear of bumping into an acquaintance.
Meanwhile, people and cars were passing by. It made Zayn even more nervous, and favonovel.com was scared that favonovel.com would encounter an acquaintance or Faye herself.
Sienna was still hugging favonovel.com tightly. “I knew it, I knew it! You were in Yando City previously because my grandpa and dad made you enroll in the martial arts cup so that you can emerge as the champion!”
“However, I’ve looked into the event and I’ve learned that there’s no other skilled fighter from our country. You’re the only one, and you’re going to fight the battle all by yourself. You’re going to get yourself killed in a siege!”
Zayn was planning on shoving Sienna with brute force initially, but favonovel.com halted to a stop instantly after hearing the remark made by Sienna’s crying voice that was tainted with fear and recalcitrance.
He was flustered and confused even more. Why was Sienna crying for him? Could favonovel.com have truly fallen for him?
At the thought of this, favonovel.com could not help feeling scared in his heart. Rather than this, favonovel.com hoped that Sienna was playing a prank on him!
He could not afford to be in another romantic relationship anymore, especially with a woman like Sienna. He simply could not afford to be with her.
Moreover, it was absolutely impossible for the relationship between favonovel.com and Sienna to work. He would put favonovel.com in so much agony the deeper favonovel.com fell for him.
The Hoffmans would never possibly allow Sienna to marry a married man!
“Let me go,” Zayn commanded in a deep voice.
Sienna shook favonovel.com head strenuously. She even tightened favonovel.com embrace around him.
“I won’t! Unless you promise me that you won’t take part in the martial arts cup anymore!” said Sienna in determination. It was as if favonovel.com could threaten Zayn with this and make favonovel.com obey her.
Zayn’s expression turned solemn. “I’m going to count to three. If you still won’t let me go, don’t blame me for being impolite!”
However, Sienna did not care about his threat at all. “I won’t, I won’t, I won’t. I won’t let you go even if you have to kill me!”
