32 ALEXANDER ZI IS A CUNNING FOX (1/2)

A nervous Zunnie was sitting on the bed when Alex walked in. Hearing his strides approach her, Zunnie's heart wanted to escape from her chest and run for its life.

'He is being so unfair.' Zunnie sighed inside.

Alex entered the room and sat on the bed facing Zunnie. He wanted to be open-minded, but he also happened to be ready to devour her if she said no.

”So...” He said impatiently.

Zunnie raised her bent head to stare at Alex's amber eyes. She felt her body relax looking at his warm eye. She had come to a decision and hope she wouldn't one day regret it.

”No-one spends ten billion dollars to help someone they've never met without a legitimate reason. What is yours? I admit that there's something about you and I do enjoy your companionship. I've never been interested in anyone. I accidentally blurted out that I like you in the spur of the moment. The feelings that were surging through me felt good, but I was being too rash. Right now, work is the most important thing. This was all a misunderstanding and I deeply apologize. Mr. Zi, I'm sorry but I can't marry you so suddenly.”

When Zunnie finished speaking Alex felt like he had been punched in the gut. A storm began to rage inside of him. His amber eyes grew dark and cold making Zunnie tremble under his gaze.

She worked up all her courage to refuse him but seeing how he looked at her made her heart freeze from fear.

Alex sat on the bed saying nothing and although it was only ten minutes, Zunnie felt like it had been an hour. The aura illuminating from Alex sent shivers down her spine. She nervously bit down on her bottom lip hard until her teeth bruised it.

”Mr. Zi please say something…” she nervously croaked.

Mr. Zi only bent his head and clenched his teeth and jaw respectively.

Just as Zunnie opened her mouth to speak again, she was roughly pushed back into the bed. Before she could understand what was happening a sharp pain surged from her bare shoulder causing her to scream ”Ahhh...” in pain. Alex had bitten her shoulder.

”Miss Bai you're being unfair…” Alex seethed through clenched teeth.

Zunnie's teeth were chattering as she tried to contain the pain…
