Chapter 1284 - You Rely on Me Because I Like You.” (1/2)

Feed Him?

Was that the reason he had demanded her presence? Was he a child? Why did he need to be fed?

Then, it dawned on her. He was punishing her, wasn’t he? He wanted her to suffer on an empty stomach as she was made to feed him till he was full. It was cruelty beyond measure!

“What would you like to eat?” She asked.

“I’d like some water.”

“Okay.” Bai Beibei picked up a cup of water and brought it to his lips.

Gong Yi took a sip, his sword-like brows creasing. “You’re going to scald my tongue like that!”

Was the water really as hot as he made it out to be?

“I’m sorry.” Bai Beibei quickly lowered her head and blew on the water, then brought it to his lips again. “It shouldn’t be too hot, now.”

Gong Yi took another sip and murmured in disdain, “The water’s cold!”

Bai Beibei was certain that he was deliberately making things difficult for her.

She sipped on the water, frowning with an expression of uncertainty. “I think it’s just right.”

Gong Yi glared at her. “Are you talking back, Bai Beibei?”

“No.”

“I think you are.”

“Okay, I am.”

“Bai Beibei, what kind of attitude is this?”

Bai Beibei was speechless. She glowered at him wordlessly.

Gong Yi’s sharp brows furrowed. “Are you mute? Why aren’t you saying anything?”

She remained silent. Nothing she said would satisfy him the way he was now. Her words would only fuel his anger further.

“Young Master Gong, what’s wrong with you today?” She asked seriously.

She actually had the nerve to ask! As if suffering a bellyful of anger, no thanks to Li Xiyang, was not enough.

“I think you know exactly why I’m so angry.”

Bai Beibei tilted her head in confusion. She really didn’t know. Putting down the cup, she said, “Young Master Gong, let me feed you.”

She was brushing him off!

Gong Yi threw the stack of documents onto the floor. It landed with a crisp ‘Pa’ sound. He picked up the cup of water and took a sip but didn’t swallow. Pressing her into the sofa, he forced the rest of the water down her throat, past her cherry-coloured lips.

Bai Beibei was caught off guard and choked on the water. “Cough, cough.”

She coughed so hard that her face turned red, tears streaming from her eyes.

Her small hands balled into fists and hammered him in desperation. “W-what are you doing?”

Gong Yi did not avoid her blows.

Anger had got the better of him. He just wanted to punish her for her arrogance. He did not mean to choke her like this. Immediately, a sense of guilt pinched his heart. Though he wanted to apologize, he could not bring himself to do so.

In the end, he asked stiffly, “Are you okay?”

Bai Beibei’s tears formed crystalline beads over cicada-like eyelashes. With her large eyes that resembled a pair of dark grapes, she spluttered out a question. “What’s wrong with you?”

“I saw you kissing Li Xiyang. Why?”

“What?”

“Do not pretend like you don’t know what I’m talking about. I saw you. You let him kiss your face. Here.” He poked her cheek with his finger. It was soft to the touch. “He even set the photo of him kissing you as his screensaver!”

Bai Beibei recalled the kiss Li Xiyang had snuck in school.

“Why did you let him kiss you? Speak!”
