Chapter 184 - 184 You Are Lying. Bad Girl
184 You Are Lying. Bad Girl
Lin Jiao looked at the ceiling at a loss, her face as red as a freshly cooked tomato.
She fiddled with the bedsheets, her thoughts turning into a ball of thread.
Suddenly, he placed his warm palm on the back of her hand. It was like a fire brushing past her skin. It was hot and itchy.
Pei Zhi tickled her skin. The calluses on his fingers were like thorns, making her arms go numb.
He leaned down. “Are you hungry?”
The only response he got was a rumble from her stomach.
Lin Jiao’s neck turned red.
She stole a glance at him and was so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole and hide in it. “You…”
His thin lips pressed against her forehead the next second.
Pei Zhi kissed her lightly, helped her up, and squatted down to help her put on her shoes.
His movements were natural and practiced, as if their relationship had not changed and they were still a couple in love.
Lin Jiao was led out of the emergency room like a robot without the ability to think.
The way she walked made Pei Zhi want to laugh, but he did not dare to. However, he was not as nervous as before.
He opened the passenger door and saw that she was still rooted to the ground. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “Jiaojiao, do you want me to carry you?”
Lin Jiao was stunned. “No.” She got into the passenger seat in frustration, her face burning.
“What do you want to eat?”
“I want to go home.” Her mind was in a mess. She couldn’t think while he was around.
“Let’s go back after we finish eating.” Pei Zhi habitually put on her seatbelt and kissed her. “Be good.”
His gentleness was killing her.
Lin Jiao followed him to the dining room in a daze and sat on the chair without saying a word, waiting for him to order.
The sun was shining brightly. A few rays of light landed on the trees outside the window and shone on her face.
She sat there quietly like a painting. No matter how simple the surrounding was, as long as she was around, Pei Zhi would be attracted to her.
After the waiter brought the food to the table and said that the dishes were all served, he looked away.
“Don’t think too much.” Pei Zhi picked up his chopsticks and placed a piece of bass in her bowl. “Eat first.”
He could understand her complicated feelings, and he never thought of asking her to give him the response he wanted immediately.
In any case, she had already written the guarantee. She could not escape.
Lin Jiao filled her stomach in silence.
She wiped her lips and looked up at him secretly. After being caught doing it, she quickly lowered her head.
Pei Zhi wanted to kiss her even more.
After getting into the car again, he took a deep breath to suppress the urge to approach her. “Which home do you want to go back to?”
“Ming Xin.”
“Then I’ll pick you up tomorrow?”
His meaning was obvious.
Lin Jiao rubbed her seatbelt. “Un…” Just as she was about to say it, she suddenly felt that calling him ‘Uncle’ was especially strange.
She pursed her lips. “Pei Zhi, I have to think about it.”
“For how long?”
“A week.”
Pei Zhi was not satisfied with the time she gave him. For the first time, he did not give in. “Jiaojiao, I can’t wait that long.”
If he hadn’t been with her for those two months, he might have been able to restrain himself and keep on waiting. But now, he could not wait at all.
“A week is not long.” Just as Lin Jiao glanced at him from the corner of her eye, a shadow fell on her.
Before she could react, a warm touch landed on her lips, causing her to stop breathing.
She, who was kissed until her eyes were blurry, heard a hoarse voice. “Is three days enough?”
“Jiaojiao, answer me.”
“Yes.” Lin Jiao, who had clearly fallen into a trap, agreed without thinking.
She tilted her head to calm her breathing, her heart beating like a drum all the way to the apartment.
“Tell me when you get home.” Pei Zhi kissed her again, but not as fiercely as before.
He sat back down reluctantly, his voice sexy and pleasant. “That was the goodnight kiss.”
Lin Jiao left with a red face.
It was Saturday. Eight or nine children were gathered in the garden to play hide-and-seek. Their playful voices slipped in through a window on the eighth floor.
There was laughter downstairs and sighs upstairs.
Lin Jiao, who was lying on the sofa, took two sips of the red wine from the wine cabinet and looked out of the window.
She narrowed her eyes, her long eyelashes decorated with a layer of golden light, but it could not hide the confusion in her eyes.
From the moment she mistook Pei Zhi for her husband and insisted on going home with him, the scene of her being taken care of and intimate with him was like a movie playing in her mind. Every scene was filled with warmth and sweetness.
At first, Lin Jiao, who was immersed in her memories, smiled involuntarily. However, when she thought of how she seduced him in her sexy nightgown and how she wanted to touch his abs, she could not bring herself to smile anymore.
His deep eyes and the words “good girl” that he said on the bed were like a curse that trapped Lin Jiao.
She held her red cheek and put her legs on the other sofa, flailing around like a fish that had accidentally entered a deep pool.
Lin Jiao was about to go crazy.
She drank the red wine in the wine glass in one gulp and lay on her back with the blanket in her hand. She took a few deep breaths to calm her heartbeat.
Buzz—
The phone on the table vibrated.
“Jiaojiao, it’s time for you to cut your nails.”
“Picture.”
Pei Zhi sent a selfie. The camera was aimed at the scratches on his abs. She had accidentally left them when she touched his abs last night.
Lin Jiao moved the phone closer, staring at the few drops of water on his chest without blinking.
He must have just taken a shower. He used the shower gel she bought some time ago. That smell…
Wait, what was she thinking?
“Don’t send it to me again!” She was angry and embarrassed.
“Don’t you like it very much?”
“I don’t like it!”
“You’re lying. Bad girl. Spank.jpg.”
The spanking sticker triggered a lot of memories. Lin Jiao patted her burning cheeks, not planning to talk to him anymore.
She threw her phone back to the table and drank two glasses of red wine in a row before falling asleep to relax.
It was almost seven o’clock when night fell.
A gust of cold wind and the doorbell broke the dream. Lin Ran went to open the room to get the takeout.
The sound of the takeout bag being opened filled the room. Even through the plastic box, one could smell the nice fragrance.
Lin Jiao did not need to guess to know who ordered this takeout for her.
She slowly finished her meal and looked absent-mindedly at the television that was not turned on. She sat on the carpet in a daze, not even knowing where her thoughts were going or when they would return.
