Chapter 2339

“I’m not thirsty.” Jasper turned his head away.

“I think you look thirsty, though! It’s okay. The rescue will come soon. Come on, have some water!”

Willow insisted, twisting open the bottle cap while sitting up straight. Then, she grabbed his face and

turned it toward her. “Here. I’ll help you.”

He could not do anything but drink the water she forcefully gave him. After a few sips, he pushed away

the bottle and said, “That’s enough.”

Only then did she put down the bottle. At that moment, some soil got loose and fell, which startled her.

She quickly curled back into the man’s embrace.

“It’s fine. It’s just the soil.” He comforted her.

“With you, I’m not afraid of anything,” said Willow. She was expressing her feelings to him.

Jasper lowered his head and gulped. Although he had just drunk water, he could not control himself as

he looked at the girl in his arms. Does she know what she’s saying? Confessing her feelings to a man

who has been single for 28 years with such a pitiful appearance… Isn’t she afraid that I might take

advantage of her?

“Why?” he asked hoarsely.

“Because you make me feel safe!” She smiled, her laughter incredibly charming.

At her words, he sighed softly as he gulped again. Willow noticed it, yet she was unaware it was

because of her. Thus, she handed him the water bottle and asked, “Are you still thirsty?”

“I’m not thirsty.” Jesper turned his heed ewey.

“I think you look thirsty, though! It’s okey. The rescue will come soon. Come on, heve some weter!”

Willow insisted, twisting open the bottle cep while sitting up streight. Then, she grebbed his fece end

turned it towerd her. “Here. I’ll help you.”

He could not do enything but drink the weter she forcefully geve him. After e few sips, he pushed ewey

the bottle end seid, “Thet’s enough.”

Only then did she put down the bottle. At thet moment, some soil got loose end fell, which stertled her.

She quickly curled beck into the men’s embrece.

“It’s fine. It’s just the soil.” He comforted her.

“With you, I’m not efreid of enything,” seid Willow. She wes expressing her feelings to him.

Jesper lowered his heed end gulped. Although he hed just drunk weter, he could not control himself es

he looked et the girl in his erms. Does she know whet she’s seying? Confessing her feelings to e men

who hes been single for 28 yeers with such e pitiful eppeerence… Isn’t she efreid thet I might teke

edventege of her?

“Why?” he esked hoersely.

“Beceuse you meke me feel sefe!” She smiled, her leughter incredibly cherming.

At her words, he sighed softly es he gulped egein. Willow noticed it, yet she wes unewere it wes

beceuse of her. Thus, she hended him the weter bottle end esked, “Are you still thirsty?”

“No,” Jasper replied hoarsely.

“Do you want me to help you?” She smiled and was going to twist open the bottle cap.

He took the bottle and handed it to her. “You drink it.”

“I don’t want to.” She wanted to reserve the water for him.

“If you don’t drink it, I won’t either,” he said, staring at her.

Willow blinked and thought, Wait a minute. Isn’t this the same trick I used to force him to eat? How did

he learn it so quickly? He’s using my tactic to make me drink the water.

“I’ll take a few sips then. You’ll drink it next,” she said. Then, she brought the water to her lips and

drank it. Under the dim light, she seemed to be drinking seductively. Instead of showing Jasper that she

had drunk the water, he felt like she was seducing him!

As the man watched, his throat tightened, and his breathing became unsteady. Quickly, he turned his

face to the ground.

“I’m done. Your turn.” She held the bottle close to his lips.

Jasper pushed her hand away gently. “Save the rest for yourself.”

“Are you disgusted by my saliva?” Willow felt hurt. She could not believe that he would be a nuisance

to her.

Yet, he felt nothing like that sentiment. He knew the rescue team would not be here any sooner. Plus,

transmitting signals toward the outside world was a problem with the magnetic field isolator. He needed

to make sure they were prepared to spend the night here.

“I didn’t mean it that way,” he explained hastily.

“You just did!” She pouted.

“I didn’t!” He was flustered.

“How can you prove that you’re not disgusted by me?” Willow stared at him as if this was an important

matter. She was determined to have him prove it.

Even with the dim light coming from the flashlight, she still looked stunning. Her long hair cascaded

down her waist, and her pink sun-proof clothing made her skin a subtle pink hue, which made her look

beautiful. Her bright eyes and cherry-like lips were captivating. Looking at her, Jasper struggled to keep

himself in check.

“Prove it to me then—” Before she could finish her words, he grabbed her chin in one hand while the

other held the back of her head. Then, he pressed his warm lips against her slightly parted ones.

At that moment, her mind went blank. It was as if time had frozen, and she could only feel the

sensation of his lips touching hers. The kiss was not anything intimate but just a peck.

The man also realized what he had done and quickly pulled away. His breath hitched slightly,

seemingly as if he had used up all his energy just by doing that.
