Chapter 170 - Sly Man! (1/2)

The bright rays of sunshine invaded through the gap between the curtains illuminating the small yet cozy room. Her eyelashes fluttered slowly like the flapping of butterfly wings as she opened her eyes.

Only then did she noticed the man sleeping beside holding her in his arms. The events of last night flashed in her mind and her face turned red.

Embarrassing moments deserve to be forgotten fast but she could not forget it at all. How annoying was the fact that all this while, she was being jealous of herself? The woman who he had always wanted to kiss was her and no one else.

While they were in Shanghai, he had kissed her while she was asleep. When he told her this, she found it entirely unbelievable but then again, she was sure he won't lie to her about such things.

Looking at him, she had the urge to punch the ridiculously handsome man. If he liked her for so long, why did he even pretend as he saw her as a friend? This sly man even threw away the pillow barriers she created every time they slept together. No wonder they always woke up in each other's embrace the next morning. She wouldn't have known it if he did not tell her. And he even kicked her out of the mansion to sort his feelings. He could have simply confessed to her.

She bit his cheek. Humph!

As his skin turned red, she raised her hand towards his cheek and stroked the spot she just bit with her thumb gently. This man was tricking her all this time but she still could not even get angry at him at all.

If he had confessed to her at that time, then she might have packed her luggage and run away.

Falling in love with him was never difficult but accepting it was a tough long process. And now that she had accepted that she was so in love with this man, she knew there was no going back.

Her fingers traced down to his prominent jaws but in the next second her hand was grabbed by the man who she thought was sleeping.

Jun Zixuan opened his eyes as he looked at her.

”You're awake?”

The man nodded slowly.

”Since when?”

”From the time you bit me,” He liked the current expression on her face. He had always liked it. That somewhere between 'I am embarrassed but I won't show it' expression which she will have on her face when she was around him.

”So, what were you pretending to sleep for?” She leaned closer to him and wrapped her arm around his waist. She had craved his hugs from the first time they hugged but at that time she did not have the license. Now that they were official, she could hug him as she wanted without feeling shy about it.

”Wanted to see how you will take advantage of me this time.”

Her eyes widened. This time? ”Don't tell me you were awake when I kissed you?” Her face turned red like a cooked lobster.

He raised an eyebrow and glanced at her teasingly, ”It is rare for my wife to take such initiatives. How could I bear to miss it?”

She buried her face in his chest. This was so embarrassing. Can the bed please crack? Can I please be buried under it?

His deep masculine laughter reverberated in the room as his chest rumbled, she could feel the vibrations against her cheeks and her heart raced unknowingly.

He hugged her tightly and she made sure to not look at him at all. ”Don't you have to go back now?” She asked.

He paused and distanced her from himself before looking at her face, ”Mei...”

”Yes?”

”Will you go with me back to Ren Mansion now?”
