Qi Chenglin looked through the menu casually, then he asked her spontaneously, “Is there anything that you don’t like to eat?”
“I’m okay with anything, I’m not picky.” Ruan Danchen felt awkward because she was unwittingly dragged out for lunch by him.
The waiter stood by waiting for their order. Qi Chenglin stopped reading the menu, raised his head and stared at her quietly—this made Ruan Danchen feel increasingly nervous.
“Tell me the truth.” He narrowed his eyes and his mellow voice turned cold and deep.
Ruan Danchen was startled, she glimpsed at the waiter and saw him trying to restrain himself from smiling. “I don’t particularly like seafood that has a fishy smell, and I don’t eat animal heads no matter what animal it is. I don’t like celery and carrot as well, that’s it.”
Qi Chenglin sneered. “Less than what I imagined.”
“Told you, I’m really not a picky eater,” mumbled Ruan Danchen with a weak voice.
Qi Chenglin raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a smile. “What flavor do you like the most?”
“I like spicy food,” answered Ruan Danchen hurriedly, she did not want to embarrass herself in front of the waiter again.
She could feel that Qi Chenglin was very satisfied with her reply. The contentment in his eyes became more apparent, he ordered several spicy dishes and asked the waiter to serve them quickly.
It was already half-past twelve when the dishes were served. Ruan Danchen was already starving and the tastes of the dishes were to her liking, so she quite enjoyed the meal despite Qi Chenglin’s presence.
Qi Chenglin saw her savoring her food, it seemed like she truly loved eating spicy food.
As Ruan Danchen was enjoying the food, she noticed that Qi Chenglin was eating very slowly, and he only ate small portions of the food unlike how he ate when he was at her house. Although he ate his food elegantly at the time, he had devoured his food quickly.
She could not help but ask him when she saw him eating so slowly. “You don’t enjoy spicy food?”
Qi Chenglin was startled for a while. “I… Cough!”
After he coughed, he realized that the hot food caused him to produce some phlegm. Therefore, he took a sip of water and cleared his throat. “Nope, I’m not very hungry.”
“Do you like spicy food?” asked Ruan Danchen suspiciously. “You don’t need to put up with me if you don’t enjoy spicy food. All the dishes you ordered were spicy.”
Qi Chenglin glanced at her and gave her a cheerful smile. “I like.”
Ruan Danchen blushed and felt that her chest was burning inexplicably. She was unsure whether she misinterpreted his reply or not, but she felt that he was not referring to the dishes, rather…
Qi Chenglin ended up just staring at her while he ate, and for the majority of the meal, he just stared at her. As a result, he had only eaten a small portion of food.
Ruan Danchen felt extremely uncomfortable with his stare. She ate slower and slower as she became stressed.
As a result of his stare, she felt like she was suddenly already full even though she was initially quite hungry.
Ruan Danchen laid down her chopsticks. Her scalp felt numb due to his stare. “I’m full.”
Qi Chenglin raised his eyebrows. She obviously ate much less than she wanted judging from the way she relished the food in the beginning. Qi Chenglin smiled confidently and checked the time. He said, “I’ll send you back to Chengshi.”
After saying that, he got up from his seat and walked toward the exit. Ruan Danchen followed him and stared at his long and straight back nervously and suspiciously. Her heart strangely began beating faster, and she was blushing.
After they exited the restaurant, Qi Chenglin suddenly stopped in his tracks. He turned his head around unexpectedly and he managed to catch Ruan Danchen’s expression when she was gazing at him absent-mindedly. It seemed like she was infatuated with him.
He raised his eyebrows proudly and stared deeply at Ruan Danchen with his bright ebony eyes, Ruan Danchen immediately blushed and swiftly averted her gaze, but she made it more conspicuous when she tried to hide her feelings.
She stopped about half a step behind Qi Chenglin, and she looked away diffidently. She dared not look into his eyes because she felt that it was extremely embarrassing to be caught staring just now.
She heard Qi Chenglin’s typical mocking voice from above her head. “You’re not my subordinate, why are you behaving like my attendant?”
Ruan Danchen was stunned for a while, becoming slightly infuriated. She raised her head, wanting to retort. However, she found that he had leaned toward her, and his body now almost touching hers. He lowered his head and looked down at her.
When she looked up, her forehead rubbed against his lips, and she felt her face burning.
Ruan Danchen blushed furiously and was left dumbfounded. She retreated immediately as if she was scalded. However, he had embraced her with his long arms, encircling her waist. She was unable to retreat and saw him lower his head even more—his gleaming eyes were staring at her lips. Ruan Danchen felt her whole body become blazing hot and she forgot how to breathe—unknowingly holding her breath.
Qi Chenglin’s stared at Ruan Danchen’s lips with intensity. They were slightly swollen because of the spicy food she ate. Her cherry-red lips looked extremely soft and mesmerizing.
He lowered his head straight away and kissed her lips without hesitation. He stuck his lips onto hers and began to wildly rub them against her lips. The moment his lips touched hers, he threw out the idea of pecking her gently and inserted his tongue into her mouth.
His arms held her tightly, and he instinctively stretched his tongue deeper in. Ruan Danchen was quivering in his arms and she put her arms softly on his chest. She was unable to resist his kiss and responded to his advances submissively.
After quite a while, Qi Chenglin took a deep breath and let go of her lips.
He anticipated that Ruan Danchen would be too weak to stand, so he did not withdraw his arms and let her rest in his arms. He lowered his head and saw her face had turned as red as a peach.
He rubbed the tips of his nose and lips against her face. He could smell the pleasant scent of her skin as well as the heat emanating from her, and he could not help but sniff her body.
He used the tips of his nose to rub against her hairline and ears, while his lips rubbed against her delicate skin.
Ruan Danchen was stupefied, she did not respond to him and remained in his arms.
After a while, Qi Chenglin finally let go of her, otherwise, they would never have left Dynasty.
Ruan Danchen dared not raise her head. She started to inhale some air and her brain slowly started to function again. She realized that they were still standing in the corridor of the restaurant. She stood there and let him kiss her, it was too bold!
Didn’t he know how to be low-profile?
Besides, what had she done that caused him to think that he could treat her like that? That he could hug and kiss her as he liked it!
When she was just about to reproach him for his actions, her body was turned around by Qi Chenglin’s arm and pulled forward by him as they walked.
Immediately after she turned her body around, she saw Li Zhuoan who was standing with a waiter just a few steps in front of them. They were stunned and stared at them in disbelief.
Even though the waiter of Dynasty was well-trained, he was not calm at all at that moment.
Li Zhuoan was especially shocked.
Most of the people who came to Dynasty were quite distinguished, even though some of them were not so well-distinguished, they would try their best to avoid losing face at Dynasty because of the setting of the restaurant. No one would make out here because they would want to maintain their positive image.
For the waiter and Li Zhuoan, they least expected Qi Chenglin would be the one making out with a woman in public. This was because he has never been caught in any scandals with other women before—especially because he has been single for many years. He has maintained a positive image over the years and not dated anyone. Some gossipy people even worried that he suffered from a medical ailment because he has abstained from sex for too long.
However, they now unexpectedly saw him hugging a woman and kissing her, totally oblivious of his surroundings.
They saw that Qi Chenglin had hugged and kissed that woman so ferociously, he should have just carried her into a room and threw himself at her.
If anyone had witnessed that scene just now with their own eyes, they would never suspect that Qi Chenglin had any medical ailments.
Ruan Danchen was blushing, she felt like her head was going to explode. She wished she could choke Qi Chenglin to death—she was extremely embarrassed.
She felt deeply ashamed of herself, but Qi Chenglin dragged her toward Li Zhuoan.
“Young Master Lin,” said Li Zhuoan as he tried to calm down with great difficulty. However, he still stole a curious glance at Ruan Danchen.
Qi Chenglin nodded, not embarrassed at all. He calmly introduced her to Li Zhuoan with a calm expression. “Ruan Danchen.”
Li Zhuoan immediately stared at her differently, Ruan Danchen was unsure whether she misread his stare or not because she felt that he exhibited respect in his stare.
“Miss Ruan.” Li Zhuoan called her name respectfully.
Qi Chenglin was satisfied with Li Zhuoan’s attitude toward her. He nodded coolly and left the restaurant with Ruan Danchen.
Ruan Danchen was still bewildered when he brought her to his car. They had already nearly reached Chengshi when she finally came to her senses.
Ruan Danchen was clutching her handbag’s strap tightly, she felt incredibly confused. Apart from the spicy taste of the food she had just now, she could only taste Qi Chenglin’s odor in her mouth. Besides, the car was filled with the fragrance of his perfume and it caused her to be unable to slow her heartbeat.
“Here we are.” She heard Qi Chenglin’s indifferent voice.
Ruan Danchen collected her thoughts and realized that he had stopped his car in front of Chengshi.
She lowered her head, and her hands were trembling. She frantically unfastened her seatbelt. When she wanted to get out of the car, he grabbed her arm with his warm hand
She turned around and looked at him nervously. Qi Chenglin said with his husky voice, “Not going to say goodbye to me?”
“Goodbye,” said Ruan Danchen quietly. She turned her body around to open the door, but he pulled her back in again.
At that moment, there was not even enough time for her to look at him before she was pushed against the door. Then, he leaned into her. One of his hands supported her back and the other hand held the back of her head, then he kissed her lips.
He could feel a fire burning in his private part, it was so hot that he felt like his whole body was aflame. He truly wished he could have sex with her in the car straight away. He did not know how long he could control himself.
Ruan Danchen felt like he had sucked away all the air in the car. She was quivering in his arms and she felt like her body had melted. She could smell the fresh scent of his breath and it was intoxicating. She felt like she had been drugged. She felt elated and aroused.
If he wanted to have sex with her right then, she felt that she would not be able to refuse.
She felt his thin, warm lips rubbing against her lips before slowly moving toward her earlobe and then to the side of her neck. She felt itchy and numb and felt as if she had no control over herself anymore.
Suddenly, he stopped moving. His lips still stuck on the side of her soft and delicate neck. His face was buried in the pit of her neck. His breath was making her skin felt extremely itchy.
“Qi Chenglin,” shouted Ruan Danchen helplessly.
Qi Chenglin took a deep breath and withdrew his face. He pinched her back and relaxed his arms. “You can go now.”
However, his arms were still placed on her body and she was still pushed against the door. Ruan Danchen dared not move.
“Changed your mind?” He raised his eyebrows and rubbed his lips against the corner of her mouth. He laughed attractively with his deep voice.
Ruan Danchen was speechlessly enticed by his voice, she stuttered, “You… you have to let go of me so that I can get out.”
Qi Chenglin paused.
He kissed her forcibly as if to punish her for saying something wrong. He sucked her lips until they were swollen, then he released her without uttering a word.
Ruan Danchen hurriedly got out the car. This time, Qi Chenglin did not pull her back into the car.
Qi Chenglin looked at her figure as she frantically ran away from him. He stopped staring at her when she entered the elevator with a crowd that had just returned from their afternoon lunch break.
He lowered his head and looked at his protruding zipper and laughed softly as he was in a good mood.
This feeling was pretty good.
He could not drive a car in this state, so he took out a box of cigarettes. He put a cigarette between his lips and lit it.
He took a puff of it and lowered his head to stare at his private part again. He thought that it would be perfect if he could release it by taking it out completely.
When he recalled the feeling of her soft body when Ruan Danchen was in his arms and the feeling of her hugging him tightly, the heat that was burning inside of him became stronger.
