One of her high heels broke, and Qin Zhuzhu felt backwards. She waved her arms frantically, trying to grab onto sothing.
At that mont, sothing dashed extrely fast and caught her by the waist before she could fall down the stairs.
And then, a slender hand reached out, she pulled off his mask.....
It felt like the curtains have been pulled back to reveal the stage she wanted so much to see. The man’s gaze was tender yet filled with coldness.
She stared up into those eyes. Sharp, chilly, srizing. Pupils trembling, Qin Zhuzhu forced her tears down.
Then.... PAH!
Shentu Jing’s face whipped to the side. A red mark across his fair cheek. He turned back to face her.
"Why-"
"I’m sorry," Shentu Jing interrupted her. Qin Zhuzhu only glared at him like she wanted to strangle him.
"Sorry? You lied to ," Qin Zhuzhu choked out, jaws tensed.
You lied to . Those words felt like knives stabs to his heart.
She pushed him away and got up on her own, stumbling as she made her way down the staircase and away from him.
Her shoe suddenly snapped and broke, twisting her ankle.
"Ah!" Qin Zhuzhu felt to her side. But before she hit the ground, a weight held her tightly.
"You’re hurt. Let take you to the hospital," Shentu Jing said in a gentle tone.
"No need. I can walk by myself," Qin Zhuzhu coldly replied as if he was her mortal enemy.
Shentu Jing knew that it was wrong of him to faked his death but he had no choice at that ti. Feeling sorry for hurting her feelings, Shentu Jing wanted to make it up to her.
"Then let walk you ho," he offered a hand to help her up but she ignored him. She rather walk ho injured by herself.
Shentu Jing took a deep breath. He looked at the girl struggling to stand. Knowing that she wouldn’t let him help her, he opted to carry her.
"Shentu Jing! Put down!" She beat at him when he suddenly took her on his arms and carried her like a baby. He only tightened his grip and carried her away.
"Shentu Jing! Leave alone!" She cried, trying to push him away but it did no good.
He took her back to the villa where he kicked the door opened.
"Uh, boss. You could have ask to open the door for you," Han Juexian scratched his head, watching his boss carry lady boss in.
"Get lost,"
"Okay!" Han Juexian pulled Ding Yu away. When the boss was in a bad mood, it was not advisable to stay around him.
Qin Zhuzhu wanted to slap and punch Shentu Jing very much. It wasn’t because he lied to her about his death that made her angry. It was actually because she really thought that he was dead and cried for him. He played her there. In fact, she was more than happy to see him again.
The mont he set her down, Qin Zhuzhu limped away to run from him.
"Don’t move!" He snarled and held her still. He looked very fierce and dangerous like a king viper. Qin Zhuzhu quickly stopped in her tracks.
He walked over to her, hands on her waist. Shentu Jing lifted her up with ease and put her on the kitchen counter. Then he knelt down and examined her ankle.
"Does it hurt?" He gently rubbed her red ankle.
"Get lost," Qin Zhuzhu replied icily without sparing him a glance. However, she flinched when he pressed on her ankle.
"It’s going to hurt a little. Bear with it, okay?"
"You have hurted more than this," Qin Zhuzhu snorted, still refusing to et his eyes.
Crack!
"Shit!" Qin Zhuzhu hissed in pain, squeezing her eyes shut.
Shentu Jing fixed her ankle and put it back in place.
Without waiting for her to get down or say anything, he stood up and pressed her against the counter.
Qin Zhuzhu’s eyes widened, trembling slightly. He looked like a predator about to eat her.
"Little Pearl, aren’t you heartless yourself? Don’t play innocent! Do you think I like it when you said you want to bring ho ten thousand n!? Do you think I want to see you hanging around other n!?" He growled at her.
"You...are.." Qin Zhuzhu didn’t know what to say, only stuttering under that intense gaze of his.
"Jealous. I’m jealous. So what?" He admitted, caressing her cheeks.
Realizing that he was still wearing the gloves, he pulled off the gloves and threw it away. Touching her skin felt like touching gold. The rough pad of one finger finally touched the skin that he had desired for so long, heat traveled through his finger to burn up his whole being.
The scene of her expressive foxy eyes was simply cruel torture for Shentu Jing, who had endured for a very long ti!
He felt his throat dry up and his collar felt so tight he almost couldn’t breathe, so he reached up to roughly loosen his tie.
Qin Zhuzhu’s breathing beca raggard. The scene of the man in front of her was very sexy. She couldn’t help but felt her anger dissipated.
In the next second, before she could protest, her lips were claid by his warm and wet one.
At first, the kiss was soft and gentle. But later it turned ferocious as if he wanted to punish her.
He wanted her for so long. He wanted to tell her that he was still alive, wanted to hold her in his arms again, wanted to eat hotpot with her even though he couldn’t stand the spiciness, wanted to go shopping with her, wanted to bicker and tease her, and wanted even more to taste her lips again. He wanted everything of her.
Tears slipped out of her eyes when he nibbled on her lips. Those were the tears that she held in when his lies hurted her.
"Holy shit!"
The door swung opened to reveal a person, mouth agape.
