Chapter 63 - Curiosity Kills The Cat (1/2)

Xi Jian narrowed his eyes. This woman was truly determined to anger the Ling brothers.

”Why? Xi Jian asked.

”You don't need to know because we are not friends.” Ling Yue was a little annoyed, apparently this man did not consider her a friend at all.

”After seeing each other's naked bodies, no one would be friends. They turn into lovers or become strangers.” Xi Jian said bluntly.

Ling Yue felt her face warm, her eyes involuntarily glanced over at the front man's pants. She coughed when she realized what she was doing. Xi Jian was amused at her reaction who tried to pretend she didn't get what he talked about.

He suddenly felt like teasing her. Xi Jian put his food on the table and tilted his body to look at Ling Yue. ”So, do we have to be lovers or strangers?” a playful smiles adorn his handsome face. If only Xi Jian realized what he was doing, he would not play around like this.

Ling Yue's red face grew even redder, makes Xi Jian chuckle.

”Le-let's stay with that, with superiors and subordinates role.” She stammered and grabbed her food again.

This was the same reaction he saw seven years ago when she saw his affection toward his date. Xi Jian always felt Ling Yue was cute in her own way. Unfortunately Ling Feng was too overprotective and limited Ling Yue's space.

Xi Jian didn't know what caused them to act more like that other than the incident the two of them were trapped together. He observed Ling Yue who was eating nervously. His eyes traced the silhouette of Ling Yue's face. Her curling eyelashes were covered with glasses. Her fine nose supports the glasses perfectly. Her slightly oily lips look tempting. His eyes keep falling down there until it stop at the peek of her shirt. That stirred up something he hadn't felt for a long time. His adams-apple bobbed up and down. He hurriedly stood up.

Ling Yue was shocked at his sudden behavior. ”W-what?”

”I have something to do. I will consider your request.” and he stormed out, far from that woman.

Ling Yue sat alone finishing her food. She started form a plan. Her mind shattered when her phone rang. A message from He Luo came. He invited her to dinner tonight. Ling Yue agreed to meet with him. After all, Ling Yue had things to talk about with him.
