161 Devour (1/2)

XuanRong could not help but laugh angrily. Taking a step back, she pulled the black veil covering her face. Her face was void of any emotions, but her eyes were full of anger as she curved her lips upward.

”My Lord, this humble person is very grateful for your help but please, do mind your words. My Lord is my benefactor but that does not mean that you can play rogue. This humble person bids farewell.”

XuanRong's heart was full of anger. Before, she kept on wanting to see him, wishing that he would remember her, but now that they had met once again, and even saving her on the process, all of her desire to be with him vanished instantly after he rebuked her actions.

She would rather leave than face with this man who was currently oozing with dangerous air. But how could Xu Fei Yi allow her to leave just like that?

Before XuanRong could turn away, her shoulder was grasped by Xu Fei Yi's large hand, pulling her towards him.

*baaam!*

XuanRong's nose slammed on Xu Fei Yi's broad chest. In an instant, XuanRong's nostrils were invaded by Xu Fei Yi's lotus scent, immediately calming her nerves. Stubbornly refusing to yield, XuanRong tried pushing Xu Fei Yi's chest, wanting to escape.

But who was Xu Fei Yi?He was a two-faced man who would never accept defeat. Thus, the two of them kept on pushing and pulling. No matter how XuanRong tried to move away, Xu Fei Yi's body would not budge, and when she tried to take a step back instead, her waist was gripped tightly by his other hand. Their interaction remained still for a few moments. Two people refused to give in.

”You!!!”

XuanRong's face contorted when she realized that the man in front of her was like an impregnable wall that refused to move.

”What do you want?!” XuanRong's words were now lacking with any curtsy. She could not understand the man in front of her. They had only met a couple of times and had interacted with each other not more than the number of her fingers, but every single time she spent with him, he had never been this angry before. Although he was sometimes serious and sometimes flirty, he would never look at her like this. He cared for her and was a very gentle towards her, that was why she could not help her lifeless heart from beating once again. But right now, when she stared at his eyes, it was as if he wanted to devour her, and that made her shiver in fear.

Since he was the person she looked upon, treating him as her benefactor, she had never tried to be impolite and rude in front of him even when his actions were sometimes confusing and unclear.

But right now, at this moment, he was different.

He was angry.

Very… very angry.

His actions had already crossed her boundaries. Being angry without any reason, rebuking her, imprisoning her in his arms without releasing her, etc…. those actions had reached her limit.
