Chapter 150 – Wrecked Self-control.
As Li Xue pressed the switch by the side of the wall, the big cushioned wall painting slid to the left revealing an enormous dazzling space inside. Space was filled with several rods and rakes showcasing several dresses. Defining the closet with the simple word 'enormous' would have not been enough.
But that was not the only thing that left Li Xue in the awe rather it was also the contents inside the closet. The dressing rods not only had the dresses for the little princess but also contained the casual and formal wears for the woman. Though she has yet not seen the brand tags on it, the look of quality the fabric was giving from a distance can easily vouch for their brands.
"All the dresses here are well fit for people they are bought for. But if there is one not fit for your choice, then you can tell Sister Margaret about it afterwards and she will help you change it", he said in his usual form, all calm about the fact that he has brought in so many women and kid's dresses in his house irrespective of the fact that there is no woman and girl living here with him.
Her eyes turned to look at him, not knowing whether she should praise him for his such thoughtfulness or curse him for being so shameless to not care about anything. When he felt her gaze at himself, Feng Shufen smiled internally. This expression was exactly the one he wanted from her. He can see something was changing inside whenever he showed his care and concern for her.
He can see the walls getting weak every time he let her know what his real intentions were for her. He has never been so patient but when it was with her, his patience seems like a valuable achievement. All his efforts seem to be worth it to see her allow him to take a step forward towards her.
For this special room for Li Wei, he has confirmed his plan the moment it struck to his head. Though he would have preferred Li Xue's clothes in his closet, he still knew that for the time being it was not possible to get to that level. Always been a lover of silence and solitude, he has never thought that one day he will become so desperate to get someone's presence around him. But then greed for her company rose in his heart making an exception only for her.
"What? Is there something you want to say to me?" he asked plainly, giving the response of the gaze she was giving to him.
'Something to say to you? There are lots and lots to ask but can I really? You are so shameless. So are you asking me to become the same as you?' she questioned internally as her eyes turned accusingly towards the man.
Taking a deep breath in, she decided something. Fine, if you want that, then … Why not! Sigh!! Though I could never match his shamelessness and my efforts might only get backlashes at me but still, it's worth a try. And since I have already decided to play tricks similar to him then … Li Xue, let's give a try.
Turning directly to him, she took him with surprise. Taking just two small strides, she closed herself too much in his presence. It was really something the man has not even thought of in his best dream with her. An open initiative from her!
"Mr Beelzebub, are you really asking me?" She asked. Her eyes showed some hints of hidden pleasure mixed with accusation. Of course, she has not missed the sight of Mr Beelzebub's ears turning red. Looking at him like that she did not know but there was a sense of accomplishment in her heart, like several balloons of happiness were bursting inside.
Mr Beelzebub! The man's body went stiff for a moment but soon it was back in its composure. The change in his air was so light that it might even not have come into notice if there have been people around him. Raising his brows, he soon matched her air of playfulness.
But this time, he has to be the one to stand at the losing point. Though he has never taken Li Xue's politeness as an essential component of her personality, he has made himself too engrossed to grow used to it now. Maybe that mistake has taken him off guard in front of her.
"Yes you could …" words got initiated to answer her question but all his words got silenced by her. "Don't you feel that your actions these days have become too suggestive for the people around? Arranging so many clothes here, what are you planning to do? Make me live here with you?"
Her words came out a little softer and smoother than her usual tone. Her intentions were not to make any suggestive move but regardless of that, the man can feel the hints of seductiveness in her voice making his heart thump harder and faster.
His eyes darkened in an instant. Before even he could realize, his strong arms got wrapped around her slim frame, taking her into his embrace. "ahh!" Li Xue half yelled in surprise, making her arms wound around his neck for support.
Before she knew she was whirled inside the closet, held all preciously close to his heart. The twirling air around made her soft, wavy hair sprawled over the two faces, making a sheer curtain around them. That movement was so swift that Li Xue only realized it when her back came to hit the closet wall gently.
"Shufen! What are you doing?" she asked, feeling all nervous from the sudden closeness.
"Sshh! Not now, don't call me like that at this moment. Or I might lose my control all again", he said with a hoarse voice. His breath was a little heavier than before. His warning was enough to make Li Xue still in her movements. "Darling, do you even realize what you are doing to me? Every time near you is just like torture. Torture to maintain my composure and already wrecked self-control"
