191 Shameless Man (1/2)
”You were smoking! You left a trail of smell evidence all through the house too!”
”Oh sorry about that!” Scratching his head Jian actually looked a little sheepish under her menacing glower.
”No no no! Sorry doesn't cut it! Give 'em to me! I will not have you going and dying of lung, or throat cancer, or any of the other number of conditions that come from inhaling carcinogens!” Tapping her foot and holding a hand out Chang waited for him to give her his hidden contraband.
His eyes opened slightly wider before a smile started to grow on his face before her eyes. Reaching into his pocket he pulled out a small silver case.
”You know how I feel about this. I thought you quit a while ago!” Taking it from him immediately she wrinkled her nose in disgust and held it at arms length away from herself.
”Mm, I did.”
”Than what is this Jian?”
”I slipped.”
”Well.. then don't do it again I guess.” Looking at his handsome beaming face and his easy admittance Chang felt her anger and indignation quickly draining away.
”I won't, especially with such a strict enforcer.”
”Uh I well, hey what were you doing when I interrupted you.” With the way he was looking at her Chang became a little dazzled and darted her eyes away while changing the subject.
”Just washing and refreshing my clothes.” Liang Jian Amal chose to omit that he was only cleaning it to get the smell of ash off his shirt that lingered.
”Wait what? Oh I'm so sorry I haven't been thinking at all,I have a small washer and dryer in my unit. I'm sorry I didn't think to offer this earlier for you, have you been doing this the last several days?” Realizing how negligent she had been Chang apologized profusely feeling her face turning red.
”At night, yes.”
”Ugh I'm such a terrible hostess.” Smacking her face Chang cringed.
”You do not need to punish yourself over it, it has been a.. unique experience.”
”Please don't justify me being terrible, just give me your clothes.”
”All of my clothes?” Smiling wickedly Jian lifted an eyebrow at her further reddening face.
