Chapter 375 - Hearts in different directions (1/2)
The day-off quickly ended as the couple had to return to their busy lives in the capital city.
Xiong Mansion, East Wing.
Linfeng was standing outside Xiong Zhi's room. He composed himself first before knocking on the door.
”Come in.” A soft and a little bit grouchy voice came from inside the room.
Linfeng pushed the cart in and started his routine.
”How is your sleep, Young Miss?” Linfeng asked the woman on the bed, but his eyes never looked at her.
”Good. How about you? Did you take enough rest yesterday?”
Linfeng slightly flinched at her question. He avoided looking at her while showing his gentle smile. He walked to the window and pulled the curtains to the side. ”Yes, thank you for concern. I got enough rest.”
Lies. He did not get a wink of sleep at all. Only because of one reason.
When he woke up on the bed in the rest house, he was almost shocked to death when he saw his Young Miss in his arms.
His Young Miss's forgot to dress up and only wore her robes when she slept. Because of her unconscious movements while sleeping, the robe was opened widely as one side of her b.r.e.a.s.ts was exposed. Her two slim white legs were all in the open for him to see, entangled with his own legs. Her arms were wrapped around his waist, and her warm breath fanned his neck. The enchanting beauty sleeping by his side was overly tempting, making him all red and hot.
That morning, it took him a long while before he came out of the bathroom. To distract himself, he immediately prepared breakfast and got everything ready for the return trip in the car.
On the way back, he kept silent about the sensual things that happened between them. Now was not the best time for these things yet. There were so many important things they needed to prioritize first. But if he keep on thinking about these things, then he might really lose control and end up pouncing on her.
He needed to protect his Young Miss's chastity from himself at this critical period.
So he talked about things that would distract his mind from her allure all the way back to the Xiong Mansion. The girl seemed to know what was in his heart and kept quiet about it too, not making him embarrassed by mentioning it and letting him pass the hurdle.
But when he came home alone, all the embarrassing moments rushed back into his head and he stayed wide awake all night. He could not help but repeat the e.r.o.t.i.c scenes in his mind over and over again.
Darn. He was like a bashful teenager as he laid on the bed with red ears.
Now, the Young Miss who just woke up in a disheveled state brought the e.r.o.t.i.c memories back again. With all his strength, he avoided looking at her, lest he could not control himself and push her down.
Xiong Zhi watched the man answer with a small 'En' and return to busying himself with tidying up the room.
Her eyes narrowed. Why did she get the feeling that Linfeng was purposely avoiding her?
”Wash,” she reminded him to wash her face and hands. Even though she could do it by herself, she still wanted to be pampered by him.
”Alright.”
Linfeng walked up to her, soaked the towel with warm water, and began to wipe with a focused face. However, he still did not look directly into her eyes.
The young woman naturally felt it. He was gently patting her face, but his eyes were definitely on the towel.
”What's wrong?” Xiong Zhi held his hand.
Even though Linfeng wore gloves, he could still feel the warmth from her hand.
”Yes, Young Miss?” He looked down to avoid the pair of misty eyes, but his eyes ended up falling onto her slender neck and delicate clavicle. There were still those fading red marks on her neck and collarbone from his kisses.
Linfeng: !!!
He froze. Damn, why did he had to see this of all things?!
