16 Nature (2/2)

Cai Jin raked through his hair and sighed. He dropped his brush and started to massage the achy hand. ”General, how are you doing?”

He looked at his fellow student beside his newly placed table. Both of them were now situated in her study because of her insistence.

”I really dislike math, can you just handle the accounting by the elder's side? I can handle the security a d handling the customer service.”

”Will you teach me your family history?”

Wei Xia Ri looked at the book by his side. It was not so thick so it should be okay. 'To be honest darling, I am a transmigrator and it is a headache to go through the original' s memories.'

”Well,” she took the book and went through the pages. Nobody knew but Wei Xia Ri loved social studies back in school. Looking at the history book felt like reading a story. ”I don't mind if you give me a day or two so I can elaborate.”

”And I don't mind if you pass the accounting to me so long as you at least have a basic understanding,” he copied her. A small smile played on his lips.

”You are an intelligent individual, good for you,” she said and clapped dryly.

”I can't help it,” he stated as a matter-of-fact. This was his forte afterall.

”You are cute. Now, here you go.” The general was quick to pass the books to him like it was a hot potato. However he pushed it back and moved his chair beside her.

”No, I'll teach you accounting.”

”Disgusting.”

”You will appreciate it.”

'F my life.' But much to her surprise, Cai Jin was surprisingly a great teacher. He did not teach precisely by the book nor like a genius who had his own wires connected to different areas but could still understand it. 'Accounting feels like answering a simple quadratic formula!'

”You are surprisingly a great teacher! I never asked but what's your job, little Jin?”

”A scholar employed by the empire to teach the prince's and foreign allies,” he answered while blushing.

”Why are you blushing? A teacher at your age with impeccable skills? That is fantastic. Do you have glasses?”

Cai Jin had a great face shape and a jaw-line she would kiss for days. He was lithe but muscular, at the same time, was soft on the proper areas. His deep set, obsidian gaze was as risqué as a feline. His soft lips that caught her breath could also shut her up. How much more of it was others?

Others? Somehow, the thought of his womanizing past made her mood go sour. Her slender fingers tucked his long, loose hair behind his ears. His ear lobes were soft and tender. ”You're my husband, we're married and we applied for no divorce.”

Wei Xia Ri's sudden change surprised him but slowly having known her predatory nature, he understood. Nonetheless, her treatment was so different, it made him red like a tomato. ”Y-yes, in every way.”

Wei Xia Ri looked at his attractive eyes and smiled. Then wordlessly, much to his surprise, leaned forward to nibble his ear. ”Mine,” she whispered.

Last night lasted until dawn, but having her done that made Cai Jin gulp. He pulled her back to sit her properly before kissing the back of her hands. ”Let's work on these together, general.”

”Agreed.” Wei Xia Ri blushed, having returned to her senses. 'Did I move too fast? I don't think he is catching feelings, yet.' Deep in her mind, it was a playboy's nature to be courteous to ladies. She feared that this honeymoon phase would not last long. In spite of that, the general returned to studying.
