Nie Cenjin waited for the kiss she thought would co, but it never did. She loosened her grip on his clothes and slowly opened her eyes, only to see that he had straightened up and was frowning as if deep in thought.
"Wh... what’s wrong?" Cen Jin asked, feeling a bit awkward.
"I’m still not over my cold, I might infect you." Jiang Baizhou replied seriously, unexpectedly maintaining a very solemn expression.
"..."
Cen Jin’s face, originally filled with embarrassnt, instantly turned to one of despair. She let go of her grip on his attire, her beautiful almond eyes showing a hint of anger. She stepped back two steps and turned towards her own villa to leave, replying indifferently, "Oh, in that case, I’ll head back now. Staying here for too long might also infect ."
In her heart, she cursed him a hundred and eighty tis. Such a blockheaded man! To think she had been so moved and felt it was sweet!
At such a crucial mont, was his mind calcium deficient or what?
Seeing this, Jiang Baizhou realized she was upset. As she took about two steps, he reached out, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her back to his side. He was t with Cen Jin’s eyes, which were full of disdain and anger. Subconsciously, Jiang Baizhou pressed his lips together, realizing he had said the wrong thing earlier.
"Ahem... let’s go inside first! It’s too sunny out here." Trying to cover his awkwardness, Jiang Baizhou pretended to cough lightly, his expression becoming much calr. He moved his hand from her wrist to gently hold her fair, slender hand, leading her to his ho.
Cen Jin, with a face full of reluctance, let him lead her into the house. She changed her shoes at the entrance and walked inside, finding it noticeably cooler than outside. Cen Jin glanced around and asked, "Are Uncle Jiang and Aunt Hui Zi not ho today?"
"My dad went to Bo Academy this morning, and my mom went to the dance studio today." Jiang Baizhou stopped in the living room and turned to her. "Want so water?"
Cen Jin shook her head. She looked at his rather pale face, thought for a mont, and the anger in her eyes gradually dissipated. However, her tone was still not as friendly as before, with so irritation lingering within her. "Did you take the dicine I bought you yesterday?"
"I did." Jiang Baizhou answered, his response was brief but very earnest.
"How do you feel?"
"Hmm, much better."
"That’s good." Cen Jin pursed her lips, withdrawing her gaze, and suddenly rembered to ask, "Were you too busy today to go to the clinic? Did I inte—."
"No." Jiang Baizhou knew what she was going to say and quickly interrupted her, adding, "On the day I caught a cold, I postponed all my appointnts for the next few days, including today’s."
"Oh." Cen Jin responded simply and said no more.
"Nie Cenjin."
"What?"
Jiang Baizhou pursed his lips and moved a little closer to her. His large hand gently pressed against her palm. After a while, he spoke, "So... from now on, you belong to ."
Cen Jin was slightly stunned. She lifted her eyes to et his gaze, every note of his words struck a chord in her heart, like a small pebble thrown into a calm water surface, creating ripples that sent her heart fluttering.
So mischievous courage welled up from within. Not only did Cen Jin not shy away from his gaze, but she also opened her eyes wide to look at him, with no trace of guilt, and her pretty face inadvertently blushed a rosy two shades. She raised her other delicate hand, grabbed his clothes, and with an unprecedented assertive tone declared, "Then from today, you belong to too. No one is allowed to covet you."
Jiang Baizhou listened, smiling silently. He looked at her red lips, and ignoring everything else, he wrapped his arms around her slender waist and lowered his head to kiss her...
