Chapter 168 – Stick To That For Whole Life
She lowered her head in attempt to hide her face that was a blushing mess. He grabbed her chin before tilting her face upwards so that she was looking straight into his eyes, "I have been loving you all this time," His deep tone made her gulp, "You were just dumb to not realize it."
The second sentence earned him a punch in his stomach as she narrowed her eyes, ''Are you confessing or looking for a fight with me?" Her shyness jumped under the table.
"Confessing, of course," He chuckled.
"Laughing like that…Don't tell me you are making fun of me in your heart?" She pinched his cheeks when he continued to laugh. As handsome as he looked, she ended up pouting, "I hate you. Humph!"
"Jokes apart…I do love you." He paused before adding, ''More than a lot," his tone serious this time as a soft smile played on his lips.
She blinked, looking into that pair of deep eyes that intensified the depth of his confession. Without a warning, she buried her face in his chest. He hugged her back and kissed the top of her head, "So, will you tell me now?"
"What?"
"About why you want to date me?"
"Didn't I already tell you already?"
He narrowed his eyes and pulled back from the hug as he looked at her face, "I'll leave now. I have work to do."
This petty man. Her limbs around his body coiled tighter.
He raised an eyebrow.
She cleared her throat, "Can't you just decipher it by yourself?"
"Unfortunately, I can't read minds."
She forced a laugh trying to ease the tension in the air, "Finally there is something you can't do."
He glanced at her with those humorless intense eyes.
"Do I have to say it aloud?" She asked, drawing circles on his chest with her index finger.
"What do you think?" He pursed his lips.
"Is there no other way?"
"No!!" To her ears, his tone sounded like 'If you beat around the bush any longer, I'd throw tantrums and leave this place in a fit of anger'.
Letting out a soft sigh, she bit his lips, "You're so stubborn. It's going to be tough to deal with you."
He hooked his arms around her waist, "The point here is…?" He drawled.
Her fingers raked inside his hair as she pulled him closer and pressed a kiss on his lips. That typical soft fluttery butterfly kiss that had his heart throb within a moment, "The point here is…." She drawled it out just like him as she looked at his oh so eager eyes, "That I love you?"
He narrowed his eyes for a moment before biting her left cheek, "Are you asking me or telling me?"
She smiled yet there remained a soft blush on her face ,"So, yes, I love you too," She pecked his lips again.
'Thump!'
The sound of his racing heart in his ears was betraying all his calm expressions.
"Are you sure you love me?"
The corner of her lips twitched as the smile disappeared slowly, "I was just joking," She glared at him, "How can I love you? We are frien-"
The rest of her words were taken away by the hard kiss that came out of nowhere. After a few minutes of intense kissing, he finally pulled back as they panted, their bodies leaning against each other's.
"Not friends at all," He immediately spoke up before she could think about 'friendzoning' him once again, "You said that you love me. Stick to that for the whole life," His voice domineering as usual.
"What if I don't?" She narrowed her eyes.
"Then I will…" His tone went a bit dangerous as his hands slightly shifted, "I will do this," The man said, his fingers stroking her curves with feathery touches.
"Hahaha…Wait…S-Stop…That tickles…." She laughed till her stomach heart. With no resorts left, she buried her face near the nape of his neck, "I'm not taking it back. I love you too. That's final."
And the petty man finally stopped tickling her as he hugged her back, placing his chin on the top of her head, "Hmm, took you long enough to realize that."
"Are you starting a fight?" She bit his neck.
He stroked her back, "I was just stating a fact."
"Whatever Girlfriend says is right. So, you gotta be obedient to me from now on."
"Alright."
"No fighting."
"Alright."
"No mood swings."
"Err…Alright."
"Good!''
"Girlfriend, how about some kisses?"
"Mmmp…What are you doing…? Oh…no…Not there…Ah~"
"My darling didn't mention rules regarding kiss so doesn't that means I can do it however and wherever I want?!"
…
After some intensive rounds of sucking, touching and kissing, the couple freshened up and changed into nightwear. Jun Zixuan's clothes were delivered by Steward Gu inside the dorm that had Yu Mei wonder if it was still a Girls' dormitory.
Nevertheless, powerful people have their own ways. As they laid on the small bed cuddling with each other, Yu Mei played with the diamond bracelet on her wrist.
"Zixuan."
"Mm?"
"Nothing," She continued fiddling with the bracelet. After a few seconds, she opened her mouth again, "Zixuan."
"Yes?"
She let out a soft sigh, "Nothing."
"Ask," He said, his fingers weaving through her hair.
"Huh?" Her neck turned towards so fast that she could have gotten a whiplash.
He could only laugh at her antics, "You do that when you're bothered," He said, pointing his chin towards her bracelet, "And it is written all over your face that you want to ask something."
In fact, he too wanted to ask something. In the past days, he had noticed her car, her luxurious lifestyle, be it her bracelets or clothes but she did not take a single penny from him all this while which had him wonder what she was up to. He wanted to know but at the same time, he held himself back from asking it all this while.
Even right now, he was firm on his decision of not asking her about all these things. She had already told him that she had her secrets and he will wait for the day when she will open up to him about all of them. He did not want to put her in a spot which might make her uncomfortable.
"I do have something I want to ask," She admitted, snapping him out of his thoughts.
