917 A Million Times for You 279 (2/2)
Shi Shaochuan nodded. ”Then, you have a seat first. I'll make you a cup of coffee.”
”Can't the maid make it?”
Shi Shaochuan explained, ”Wouldn't it be more sincere if I make it myself?”
Bu Xianxian did not say a word further.
He personally made and served two cups of coffee and passed her a cup. She watched him drink a mouthful of it; Bu Xianxian was evidently very guarded against him. She remarked, ”I'll drink yours.”
Bu Xianxian then passed her cup to him while she drank his.
He could tell as well that this woman was extremely guarded against him.
However, since she was in his territory, how could he not take advantage of her? No matter what, he bought those game equipment sets for her with his own money. He had to get back those costs in some way.
Bu Xianxian thought that since he had drunk it, that cup of coffee should be safe. In reality, Shi Shaochuan was harsh to himself and drugged both cups of coffee. No matter which cup he drank, he would have been drugged as well.
”Why do you hate An Xiaoning?”
”You don't seem to speak the S Nation language fluently. You're not a local?”
”I'm not. I was born in N Nation, I came to S Nation not long ago.”
”I see. But aren't people from N Nation all rather dark-skinned? You look quite fair, though.”
Bu Xianxian smiled awkwardly. ”Not everyone there is like that. Anyway, you haven't answered my question.”
”An Xiaoning was my first wife.”
”What?”
”Don't you know her? You didn't know An Xiaoning is my first wife? However, throughout the two years we were married, we never consummated our marriage. It was all because of my disgust toward her.”
”Why does this… seem rather unbelievable to me? The two of you never slept together despite being married for two years?”
”Of course,” Shi Shaochuan grunted. ”I already said I hated her.”
”Hahaha.” Bu Xianxian was in an inexplicably good mood. ”To think someone hates her to this extent.”
”Then, did you think everyone in this world likes her?” Shi Shaochuan remarked in an indifferent tone. ”I never liked her, maybe because she was the woman my grandfather forcefully made me marry back then.”
”Why did your grandfather make you marry her?”
Shi Shaochuan found it hard to explain with a few words. ”It's history already, there's no point in mentioning it anymore.”
After chatting with him for some time, Bu Xianxian felt hot all over. ”Why is the weather so hot?”
”Exactly. I feel hot too.” Shi Shaochuan suggested, ”There's air-conditioning upstairs. The living room is too big, so the air-conditioning doesn't seem to work too well. Do you want to go upstairs for the air-conditioning?”
”Sure.” At this point, Bu Xianxian found it hard to tolerate it anymore. She was starting to lose her senses as well.
She was then brought upstairs to his bedroom by Shi Shaochuan.
He turned on the air-conditioning and sat beside her, holding onto her hand. ”Although you look alike to the woman I dislike, you are who you are. I think you're great.”
”I think you're great as well.” Bu Xianxian felt as if a huge ball of fire within her had to be released. Realizing that it was a feeling that had surged within her only after she had drunk the coffee, she asked, ”Did you drug the coffee?”
”Yes, I did.”
Seeing how he admitted it in such a straightforward manner, Bu Xianxian questioned, ”Why did you…”
”I drank it myself as well.” He could no longer suppress the urge within him as well and pressed her down on the bed, nibbling onto her lips. ”Be my girlfriend, alright? I'll be nice to you.”
Bu Xianxian's body had already gone weak at this point, and upon hearing him ask her to be his girlfriend, an image of Jin Qingyan's face actually popped up in her head.
