Frustrated, Ariana scratched her head. Since she was unable to dispel the loneliness in her heart, she finally texted Theodore.

"I'm so cold. I don't know what to do."

As if he'd been waiting for her message, Theodore replied in a second, “Open the door."

Ariana was stunned. Wearing a pair of rabbit slippers, she rushed to the door. She looked through the peephole, but didn't see anyone there.

She opened the door cautiously, and before she could realize what was going on, a slender hand appeared in front of her and held the door.

Then, she heard the sound of wheels rolling on the tiled floor. Theodore appeared from behind the door.

"It's late. Why aren't you at home sleeping? And since you were here, why didn't you knock on the door? By the way, how long have you been here?" Ariana asked in surprise.

When she grabbed Theodore's hand, she found that it was as cold as ice. She felt a little upset and asked with concer, "Why didn't you let me know you were here?"

In the face of Ariana's endless questions, Theodore felt helpless. He held her hand and asked with a faint smile, "Can I go inside first?"

When he talked, she could feel the cold air he was breathing out.

Ariana was very upset. She didn't dare to leave Theodore out any longer and immediately stepped aside to let him in.

The apartment was not very big. The living room and bedroom were well furnished so that they were cozy and comfortable. As if he was going into his own house,

Theodore himself pushed the wheelchair into the bedroom.

Ariana followed him. As soon as she found her underwear strewn across the bed, her face flushed immediately. She put the glass down instantly and rushed to put away her underwear.

“Why did you come here all of a sudden and why didn't you let me know you're here and instead chose to stay outside?" Ariana felt a little embarrassed. If she had known he was coming, she would have cleaned the room. She was usually overwhelmed with work all day to the point where she had grown accustomed to leading a casual life at home. So she rarely tidied the bedroom which now was a bit messy.

Theodore coughed slightly and asked politely, "Can you make me a cup of ginger tea? I've been outside for quite a while and am freezing."

Upon hearing this, Ariana frowned and reached out to touch his cheek. It was as cold as his hand.

She was both angry and worried. She quickly pulled the cashmere blanket off the couch and covered him.

He was so reckless he came to her apartment wearing only a thin shirt. Didn't he know how cold the weather outside was?

“I'm going to make tea!" Ariana announced, glaring at Theodore. Then, she went to the kitchen.
