1040 Perplexed and Smitten 100 (2/2)
\”Xiaoning, here, have some tea,\” Pan Zhenghui said, smiling while handing her a cup of tea he got from the dispenser.
She took it from him and asked, \”Did you poison this?\”
\”Oh dear, don't malign me. I wouldn't dare to do that at all.\”
\”I'm just teasing you.\”
\”…\”
\”You guys shall settle the rest of the matters yourself. Tell the media about the truth accordingly, but don't mention that I was involved.\”
\”We know what to do, of course, we're not fools.\”
\”Are you very intelligent, then? If you're intelligent, why did you berate such an upright policeman like Ma Jianguo? You ought to give him a reward instead.\”
\”Got it, I will.\”
—
\”Why do you keep staring at me like that?\” Fang Erlan asked, touching her face.
\”You're beautiful.\”
\”How senseless…\” Fang Erlan hissed. \”Is there something you want to say?\”
\”My woman is just so telepathic with me.\”
\”Get lost, who's your woman?\”
He stood up and said, \”There's something I have to attend to lately and I can't be your bodyguard for the time being. Get your studio to assign some bodyguards to you. I'll get them to leave once I'm back.\”
Is he leaving?
Unable to contain her joy, Fang Erlan said gleefully, \”Sure, sure. That goes without saying. You don't have to worry about this, the studio will arrange for it.\”
\”Are you that happy about me leaving?\”
Fang Erlan smiled awkwardly. In order not to provoke him, she said, \”No, I actually don't want you to leave at all. Well, life is so much easier with you around.\”
\”Okay, since you can't bear to let me go, I won't leave.\”
Dumbfounded, Fang Erlan wished she could bite her tongue off. \”Huh? You're not leaving?\”
Xiao Chenyang walked toward her in an attempt to kiss her. However, Fang Erlan swiftly moved her head to the side to avoid him.
He immediately pounced on her and pinned her down beneath him. Her efforts to pull away were futile, regardless of how hard she tried to dodge. Fang Erlan felt like she was about to suffocate.
He finally let go and stared at her intensely. \”I'll definitely be back. If you dare get yourself a boyfriend or behave intimately with another man…\”
She immediately said, \”I won't, I won't, I definitely won't.\”
He gazed at her longingly and said in a mellow voice, \”I'll be back as soon as possible.\”
Fang Erlan watched him leave. The moment the door was closed, she threw the bolster aside and muttered, \”Who are you to me? We're not related to each other at all. What right do you have to restrict me? Can't believe you even expect me to remain chaste for you.\”
She felt like she was completely under his control.
If I got married while he was away, when he returns…
There could be two possible outcomes. If he sees that I've gotten married when he's back, he would either back off or he could also…
She dared not imagine what the second possible outcome may be. According to what she understood about him during the short period of time that they'd spent together, she knew that he was not one to compromise easily.
I would be in great trouble if he gets infuriated and skins me alive.
Besides, I don't plan on getting married anyway.
I don't even have a boyfriend…
Her temples began throbbing continuously as she was overwhelmed with perplexion and frustration.
She barely knew Xiao Chenyang and she had no idea who he was, where he came from, who his family was, and why he started pestering her out of nowhere.
