Unable to discern the man’s thoughts, the only thing Lin Banxia could do was forcibly suppress her restless emotions.
Just as Lin Banxia was planning to return to her room to rest, suddenly...
The corridor lights went out!
"No way, there’s a blackout now?" Lin Banxia muttered in frustration.
She touched her pocket. No good, she didn’t bring her phone.
It looked like she’d have to feel her way through the dark back to her room.
But this long, long corridor...
Lin Banxia felt as though things hadn’t been going smoothly for her recently.
All around was pitch dark, the moonlight faint and sparse.
Lin Banxia pressed forward through the darkness. Suddenly... she seed to touch a warm body.
"Ah... who is it?" Lin Banxia gasped in surprise, then paused, catching a familiar masculine scent. She imdiately whispered.
"Who else could it be besides ?" A deep, dark voice fell by her ear—who else but Huo Yanting?
"Huo Yanting?" Lin Banxia called his na, startled and pleased, then frowned, "Why is it when you show up, my power cuts out?"
"I had soone shut off your power!" The man let out a low laugh, his tone mischievous.
"What? Why would you do that? That’s so annoying!" Lin Banxia finally realized the blackout wasn’t an accident but man-made, and she couldn’t help feeling angry.
"Didn’t my grandfather have soone help you repair sothing recently? I worried he’d take the opportunity to install surveillance here. If the power’s out, there’s no way he could know I ca to see you!" Huo Yanting was extraordinarily ticulous in matters of detail.
Lin Banxia felt a mix of exasperation and amusent. This man was certainly thorough.
By the ti Lin Banxia realized what was happening, both of her small hands were pressed tightly against his firm chest. Her face suddenly flushed with heat, and she hastily withdrew her hands.
"Have you been missing these past few days?" The man’s voice was low and dark, like the richest, smoothest wine, intoxicating to the senses.
Lin Banxia hung her head, thought for a mont, and then nodded: "I have!"
"How much?" Huo Yanting seed to have stumbled upon sothing particularly intriguing. When she showed her candid side, it was like a feather brushing his heart, a sensation so inexplicably alluring.
Lin Banxia sighed, "Why do you have to keep asking about that? How boring!"
Huo Yanting’s large hand reached over, gently stroking her soft, delicate chin. His deep voice once again rang out: "I was abroad on business the past few days."
"I don’t care where you went." Lin Banxia pouted, deliberately feigning indifference.
Huo Yanting’s fingers, which had been caressing her chin, suddenly pinched it. His voice, now tinged with displeasure and danger, sounded: "Oh really?"
"You already know the answer—you’re hurting !" Lin Banxia felt that lying in front of this man was simply asking for trouble.
"I want you to feel pain so you’ll always hold in the most important place in your heart!" As his words fell, they were accompanied by a deep, consuming kiss.
Lin Banxia stiffened, replaying his words in her mind—he wanted her to feel pain?
How outrageous!
She didn’t have many years left to live, couldn’t he give her a few days of peace?
Her lips were already swollen and sore. Lin Banxia wondered if everyone else felt like this when kissed, but every single ti he kissed her, she ended up in this state—swollen, aching lips, an unbearable discomfort.
"You bit ?" Lin Banxia’s legs felt weak as she angrily punched his chest with her small fist: "Don’t bite !"
Huo Yanting laughed outright, his deep, rich voice carrying a penetrative quality that seed to dye the quiet pear garden with a hint of springti warmth.
