“Of course, I can prove it!” Xavier declared confidently.
“Well... How do you plan to do that?” The police officer sensed there was more to the story,
so he was willing to give Xavier a chance to prove his innocence.
Take my phone out of my bag. Unlock it with my face and go find a secret photo album.
You’ll know after you see that. ” Xavier decided to risk everything to regain his freedom. He
even gave up the last bit of his dignity.
“A secret photo album?” The police officer was very curious, and so was Leia.
She grabbed Xavier’s phone before the police officer could. After she used his face to
unlock his phone, she asked, “ Which secret photo album?”
“Umm... It’s called ‘my bedtime dessert’. Just show it to the police officer.1′ Xavier’s
handsome face was flushed as he said through gritted teeth.
Leia found the hidden photo album and clicked on it. When she saw the photos in it, a blush
rose on her cheeks, and she immediately sobered up.
“You... Why did you...” She turned around with a complicated expression. She could no
longer look at the photographs.
“What is it? Show me.” The police officer’s curiosity was piqued, so he took the phone from
Leia. He then used his
thumb to swipe the photos in the album one by one. After a while, he cracked a happy
smile. “Well, kid. You look like a Casanova, but it turns out you’re actually a loyal man. It’s
rare to find a man like you!”
Xavier was generally a shameless person, but at that moment, he wished that the ground
would open up and swallow him. He mumbled awkwardly, “Thank you, sir. Can you let go of
me now?”
“It was a misunderstanding. Sorry, kid.” The police officer unlocked Xavier’s handcuffs and
patted his shoulder.” Women don’t always mean what they say. Just try to talk it out, I’ll be
rooting for you... You can win her over with sincerity. If you love her, you have to say so.”
He then turned around and said to Leia, who was blushing and keeping quiet, “Girl, don’t be
pretentious. As another man, I can tell that he loves you very much!”
Leia timidly nodded. “Thank you for the advice. I realise that now.”
Speechlessness overwhelmed Xavier. He gingerly touched his sore wrists, which had
almost been dislocated just now.’ This is so embarrassing! I’m a Casanova who’s been
enjoying life all these years. I’ve never been so embarrassed in my life...’
“Well, you guys should talk it out. I’ll get on with my work.” The police officer smiled happily
as he said goodbye to them.
Soon, Xavier and Leia were the only ones left on the road.
The light cast by the streetlamp made their shadows overlap with each other, and it looked
like they were hugging. Suddenly, awkwardness engulfed them, and neither of them spoke.
“Be careful!” A car suddenly zoomed past, and Xavier quickly pulled Leia behind him.
“Umm, thank you...” Leia kept her head low, looking timid and bashful.
“Give me my phone.” Xavier was quite shy too as he took his phone from her.
The secret photo album was full of Leia’s photos that he had taken of her discreetly. For
example, he took photos of her when she was eating, laughing, or sleeping.
The most romantic one was snapped under a dim light.
Leia was sleeping in his arms like a kitten. He had kissed her on the cheek before taking
their first photo together.
From that picture, one could see how tender and doting he was towards her. Anyone who
saw these photographs would surely be charmed by his love for her.
