The heat in the air kept rising bit by bit.
Not knowing how much time had passed, the kiss finally ended, and Su Zixi leaned on his body, yet she dared not breathe heavily, only able to suppress her breath⦠her heart beating so fast that it scared her.@@novelbin@@
Perhaps her eyes had gradually adjusted to the dark, for in the faint and hazy moonlight, she vaguely saw He Jingyaoâs clear and handsome profileâ¦
âJingyao,â she couldnât help but speak.
She didnât know why she suddenly wanted to call his name, only that the emotions welling up inside her were about to overflow, and she had to do something to restrain her almost frantic heartbeat!
âIâm here,â He Jingyaoâs voice was so hoarse, he slightly tilted his head, and bit her lips again, but this time it was a gentle and lingering caress and nibble, incredibly tender.
Su Zixi felt the manâs large palm, which was originally on her shoulder, gradually moving down, bringing calluses and heat, scorching wherever it touched.
She instinctively felt afraid, yet in the end, she didnât stop itâ¦
He Jingyao, feeling her tacit consent, saw his obsidian pupils constrict slightly. His muscles tensed, pulsing with vigorous strength, ready to burst forth!
Su Zixi nervously swallowed⦠the mix of emptiness, panic, and anticipation in her heart swirled at the thought of what might happen next.
âHe Jingyaoâ¦â She called his name again, as if doing so could calm herself down.
The surroundings were too dark and too quiet, and she suddenly had the illusion that there were only the two of them left in the whole world.
âMhm, Iâm hereâ¦â He responded hoarsely again, his deep voice with a hint of laughter.
The next second, he flipped her over and with a swoop, covered her lips!
Just at that moment, with a âsnap,â the room was flooded with light!
Her eyes, accustomed to the dark, couldnât withstand such a shock, and Su Zixi quickly closed them! Then, realizing her current situation, she had to open them again⦠only to meet He Jingyaoâs profound and ardent gaze.
âMmm, mmm!â With her mouth sealed, Su Zixi couldnât speak, and she had to use her eyes to indicate that she had something to say.
He Jingyaoâs gaze darkened, thinking that this woman wouldnât try to flee again, would she?
Unwilling to move, she struggled, finally finding an opportunity to speak: âJingyao, the power⦠the power is back on!â
âSo?â He Jingyao narrowed his eyes slightly.
âYou⦠you need to let me goâ¦â Exposed in the light, Su Zixiâs courage all but drained away.
He Jingyao chuckled lightly, biting her lip and saying, âDid you think you still had a chance to escape?â
Su Zixiâs heart fluttered wildly!
Seeing no way out, she had to compromise: âThen⦠then turn off the lights!â
He Jingyao looked at her deeply.
Su Zixi insisted, âDonât touch me without turning off the lights!â
He Jingyao slightly frowned and reluctantly sat up, got out of bed, and walked to the door to turn off the light.
Su Zixi took the opportunity to wrap herself up tightly with the blanket!
Just as He Jingyao reached the door, the voice of Uncle Li came from outside: âYoung Master, your remote meeting⦠Mr. Rochester has been waiting for you for nearly half an hour nowâ¦â
He Jingyaoâs hand hadnât yet touched the switch when he heard this, and his expression immediately turned terribly gloomy, his teeth clenched as if he wanted to tear Uncle Li to shreds!
Su Zixi heard Uncle Liâs words loud and clear as well, and seeing the murderous look in the manâs eyes, she couldnât help but suppress a mischievous chuckle.
