Chapter 89 - What what? (1/2)
Ling Yue opened her eyelids which heavier than usual. Her head hurts badly. Her throat felt dry and her ears buzzing. This was the second time she woke up with this condition. The first time she drunk was when she celebrating her graduation with Ling Huansheng. Ling Yue was in worse condition back then. After that, Ling Huansheng forbade her to drink anymore . Ling Yue touched her surroundings and pushed her body up. She blinked a few times and found herself in an unfamiliar room. She supported her head and tried to stand up.
”You're awake?”
That voice froze Ling Yue. She turned her head and saw Xi Jian half lying on the sofa. After Ling Yue fell asleep, Xi Jian took her to the master bedroom. His room. He could not bring himself to sleep in the same bed in such conditions, but he also did not want to sleep in the guest room. So he chose to lie on the couch.
”Your feelings must be awful. Drink this first.” He could not sleep well and finally decided to make the hangover soup with Jack's help and returned to the room. Xi Jian pushed the tray in front of him.
”You ... where am I?”
”Save the talking for later.”
Xi Jian let her wash herself and wait her on the couch. Ling Yue accepted his help without much noise and then slowly finished the soup. She glanced at Xi Jian many times. Her words stuck in her throat.
Ling Yue's glance was noticed by Xi Jian from earlier. He wanted to see Ling Yue's reaction first. Xi Jian thought about what he would do next. He would settle his matters first with Ling Feng before making Ling Yue his. Xi Jian couldn't deny he wants this woman.
”Why are you staring at me like that?” Ling Yue finally could not stand it. ”Is my appearance really bad?” Ling Yue tried to comb her hair with hands.
Still in her dress last night, plus her natural movements to fix her hair made Ling Yue's natural beauty stand out.
Xi Jian wanted to push her back to the bed.
He cleared his throat and raised one foot to cover the other to hide his member who were starting to wake up. Xi Jian only need one confirmation before pouncing on her.
'Does she wants him like he wants her?'
”Do you remember what happened last night?” his voice sounded hoarse.
”Last night?”
Xi Jian caught Ling Yue's body turned rigid but gradually became normal.
”What happened?” Ling Yue tilted her head.
”What?!”
”What what?” Ling Yue asked innocently.
She actually remembered clearly what she was doing, but she bear in mind this man always avoiding her. Ling Yue was sure Xi Jian only responded because of instinct not with particular feeling. That's why she pretended to be stupid.
