Chapter 326 - A Gift (2/2)
Under her 'quickly see my gift' gaze, he made his way towards the coffee table. He settled on the couch and brought the gift back to his hand. His fingers smoothly removed the ribbon and the gift wrapping paper without a single damage to it.
''You are good at removing this,'' Mia said as she placed the spatula on the coffee table.
''I have experience,'' came his meaningful reply.
''Of course, removing clothes is tougher so no wonder you manage this so well,'' A foxy smile made its way to her lips as she spoke in a teasing tone.
He paused and lifted his head to look at her. Her teasing voice did not match her fathomless eyes, ''You seem to know a lot about me,'' He remarked.
''Just a guess. You look like a frivolous man,'' Her lips stretched in a lazy smile and her expression turned playful.
Frivolous? Han Jian Yu was rendered speechless. It was his first time being addressed in such a way. He shifted his focus to the box in his hand.
He opened its cover and glanced at the things lying inside. ''What...am I supposed to do with this?” He picked up the crystal windchime.
''Hang it somewhere in your bedroom. As long as you don't think ill of me, it will ensure that you will have a good sleep,'' She had infused a little bit of her powers in it. Mia smiled at his reaction. He must have liked it so much that he is dumbstruck.
Han Jian Yu, on the other hand, did not take her words seriously, ''Hang this?” The thing looked like an eyesore that the young girls interested in fairytales would usually prefer.
Mia frowned, ''You don't want it?” She reached out her hand towards the windchime, ''Give it back to me then,'' This damned man did not have a good taste at all.
Han Jian Yu pulled his hand back defensively, ''Isn't it improper to snatch something you just gifted to someone?”
''Improper my ass,'' She stepped closer to him.
''Oh, you have a good one,'' He said, tilting his head down slightly.
Her lips parted, ''Give it back to me.''
''No,'' He leaned back on the couch, swinging his hand behind.
''You were looking at it like it was ugly. Since you don't like it, why not just give it back?”
As she was busy focusing on the windchime, she did not notice when her toes tangled in the carpet. Mia lost her balance and in the next moment she knew, she was straddling him with one of her knees in between his thighs.
''I am not giving it back. What will you do about it?” He leaned closer to her such that their faces were a few inches apart, ''Now, it belongs to me anyway,'' He whispered.
