Chapter 413 To Be One of My Girls (2)
Xu Youning tilted her head and stared at Mu Sijue.
No one could deny that Mu Sijue had an one-in-a-million good looking face, on which his manly and well defined features looked like having been carved by the sharpest knife, with a kind of coldness that could keep others at a thousand miles’ length.
Deep within his black pupils, which looked both evil and righteous, was the most indescribable mystery in the world. It seemed that once she looked into his eyes, her heart would race.
Xu Youning took a deep breath to recover her normal breathing and heartbeat. “That day I said I would go to Mike’s place to have my revenge. You told me not to act on my own. I thought… I thought that you wanted me to accept the disgrace as if I had apologized to Mike, so that you could continue cooperating with him. But in fact, you didn’t have that intention, right?”
“I don’t need to rely on a woman to facilitate my business.” Mu Sijue sneered with disdain and asked, “You said you have two questions for me. What about the second one?”
For the first time, Xu Youning didn’t mind Mu Sijue’s mockery. She looked up into his eyes and asked, “Why did you avenge me?”
The one who used to pick on her the most was Mu Sijue. When she was thrown into the lake by Mike’s guys, he was supposed to stand by and do nothing with a good mood. Why did he avenge her, taking it on Mike’s guys under the risk of breaking the cooperation?
Mu Sijue slightly glanced sideways and looked right into Xu Youning’s eyes. His deep eyes seemed to be absorbing her soul.
Before Xu Youning became absent-minded, she heard Mu Sijue saying, “I remember that you said you like me.”
It had been more than half a month. Xu Youning had tried her best to let it go, that he had rejected her declaration of love, and persuaded herself to calmly face Mu Sijue. She thought he had forgotten about it, without expecting that he would easily reopen her old wounds!
All of a sudden, Xu Youning’s face became as red as deep-fried chicken with chili pepper. She stared at Mu Sijue and didn’t know what to do. After a while, she gave him a glare and said, “A gentleman isn’t supposed to talk about a lady’s declaration of love after he rejects it! You’re showing off and that’s vulgar!”
“If a declaration deserves my showing off—” Mu Sijue looked Xu Youning up and down, then he sneered and said, “You’ll be the last one I want to boast of.”
At that moment, Xu Youning wasn’t dull anymore. She got Mu Sijue’s point at once—he had met many ladies that sent him a confession, and she was the least good-looking one!
“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry.” Xu Youning repeatedly warned herself. “If I’m angry, Mu Sijue, the b.a.s.t.a.r.d, will win!”
“If I’m the last one you want to boast of, why are you asking me about it?” Xu Youning rolled her eyes, then she turned to look out of the car and stared at the night sky. “You know, the disease of saying one thing and doing another may not be cured. Oh, by the way, a lack of politeness also needs to be cured!”
“Politeness?” Mu Sijue thought.
Since he was a kid, Mu Sijue had never cared about that. His occasional politeness had been aimed to make a profit.
He only cared about profit and victory.
“Xu Youning,” Mu Sijue said in a low voice. Every word of his remark appeared to be full of sincerity. “I can’t give you love. But I can protect you from all the bullies, no matter if you’re working for me or you’re my girl.”
“…”
Xu Youning felt herself as if having been struck by lightning; her mind being was instantly emptied as if a delete key had been pressed, leaving nothing left.
When she came to herself, the car stopped in front of the villa, and Mu Sijue got out of it.
She followed Mu Sijue all the way to the second floor and shouted toward his back, “Mu Sijue, what did you mean?!”
Mu Sijue slowly turned and said, “Wasn’t I clear enough?”
Xu Youning shook her head. In fact, she couldn’t believe what she had heard.
Mu Sijue stared at her, without any tender feelings or kindness in his eyes, and said, “I was saying: now that you like me, I’ll give you the chance to be… one of my girls.”
“…” “One of?” Xu Youning thought.
She became bitterly disappointed at once, as if some freezing water was pouring down on a piece of hot iron. In a sizzle, all her ecstasy seemed like a joke.
“To be one of Mu Sijue’s girls. Humph! d.a.m.n! Why do I feel that he was just showing his pity for me by saying ‘one of his girls’?” Xu Youning thought.
She was Xu Youning; in another dark world, she had a name that others would tremble with fear upon hearing it. “Why did he treat me like a n.o.body?”
What upset her the most was that she found it hard to refuse him.
Every day and each time she tried to forget Mu Sijue, she failed; forgetting him had been a mission impossible for her.
What’s more, there was little time left for her to stay with Mu Sijue.
Xu Youning thought, “So, accepting my feelings for him should be Mu Sijue’s pity for me, right?”
“I should be grateful that I’m lucky to be his girl. I shouldn’t be upset.”
While in Mu Sijue’s eyes, Xu Youning’s upset look implied her hesitation.
Before figuring out what he was afraid of, Mu Sijue blurted, “You have one day to think it over.”
He turned and walked toward his room to keep the annoyance in his eyes from Xu Youning.
He could come up with thousands of ways to torment Xu Youning. He could even intentionally hinder her from performing her mission and send her back to Kang Ruicheng, then she would be cruelly punished.
However, at that very moment, he chose to knock her socks off, which was the most stupid way. While the point was that Xu Youning hesitated!
With a “bang—” sound, Mu Sijue slammed the door.
Accepting Xu Youning’s feelings for him was the most irrational decision he had ever made, although he could say—he just wanted to take reprisals against her.
Xu Youning looked at the closed door, slowly clenching her fists.
Kang Ruicheng had officially begun to compete with Lu Boyan and Mu Sijue. She would need to do more work, which meant that it would be easier for her to expose herself.
Although Mu Sijue said she had one day to think it over, there were only a few days left for her.
Xu Youning squeezed her eyes shut for a while, then she determinedly walked toward Mu Sijue’s room and knocked at the door.
Mu Sijue was about to change his clothes. He walked over to open the door only to find Xu Youning there. He stared at her and heard her speaking, “I’m ready now.”
With her eyes downcast, she faltered. Her body language told him that she was nervous.
Mu Sijue narrowed his eyes and looked down upon her head, as nervous as she was.
Xu Youning seemed to have gathered all her courage. She looked up and stood on tiptoe, then gripped Mu Sijue’s lips with her teeth.
That was a grip. She didn’t know how to kiss and thought it was just the quick contact of two person’s lips. Because of her injured leg, she couldn’t hold on. A grip would make it hard for Mu Sijue to push her away.
She had always surprised Mu Sijue a lot; he couldn’t deny that it was the biggest surprise Xu Youning had ever given him.
He parted Xu Youning’s upper and bottom teeth with the tip of his tongue, then harbored her lips in his mouth to gently suck them and kissed her with deeper love.
In her own eyes, Xu Youning was worldly; however, she lacked kissing experience. As Mu Sijue kissed her with ease, she began to feel helpless and dizzy. She only felt that the air around her became thinner and thinner. She couldn’t figure out when she followed him into his room, nor when he circled her waist with his arms.
Realizing that Xu Youning was nearly out of breath, Mu Sijue slowly released her. He stood before her, opening his arms to stop her between himself and the wall. “Did you tell me you’re ready?”
Xu Youning was quite embarra.s.sed. However, she thought, “The loser doesn’t lose the array!”
She lifted her chin and said, “Yes, I’m ready to be your girl. Oh, I didn’t mean to please you… Hey!” She looked at Mu Sijue who was suddenly approaching her and asked, “What are you… doing?” As she breathed in Mu Sijue’s smell, she was about to be lost in it.
Mu Sijue cupped her chin with his trim and lean fingers. “I said you can be my girl. Do you know what I implied?”
Although she didn’t have s.e.xual experience, Xu Youning wasn’t as naive as a little girl. She had lived abroad for several years, so she wasn’t a conservative person. She frankly asked, “Are you going to sleep with me?”
Mu Sijue had thought that he could calmly face her. However, the moment Xu Youning said those words, he felt his blood boil.
He managed to hold back his impulse, turning his lips into a smile and said, “Well said.”
The next second, he lifted Xu Youning’s chin and kissed her.
She was frank; if he flinched, Xu Youning would make fun of him about it every day.
“Why don’t I tease to scare her?” Mu Sijue thought.
Xu Youning caught her breath, without expecting that he would cover her lips with his again. As a result, she almost choked on her own breath.
She tried to resist, but found that Mu Sijue wasn’t teasing.
As Mu Sijue’s palm touched her skin, her pores began to tremble. Although her sense of reason told her to push him away, he was so skilled at fondling her body that her sense of reason and her strength were quickly depleted.
Gradually, Xu Youning lost control of her body and movements. She followed the voice from deep within her mind, and fell into a vortex with Mu Sijue.
Mu Sijue had intended to scare Xu Youning. As long as he wanted to make her stay, she would still be with him for a long time; he had never expected to lose his self-control at that moment.
When he touched her, however, everything began to get out of hand.
In City G, he had pushed away the girl who was provisionally taken into the lift. In City A, he had driven Cindy away twice; while on the second time, he had intentionally lost his temper when Cindy spilled the coffee on him.
He had never doubted his self-control until that moment, at which he knew he should let go of Xu Youning but failed.
Maybe he wasn’t the sort of person who had strong self-restraint; he hadn’t met the one who could get him out of control.
“Mr. Mu…”
Xu Youning was like a deer lost in a forest that was filled with mist. Her words were full of confusion and fright. Hearing her trembling voice, he took pity on her.
However, the more delicate she looked, the more fiercely Mu Sijue’s blood boiled, which roused his monster-like inner desire. He carried Xu Youning, who was too relaxed to gather her strength, and laid her down on the bed…
He thought, “Now that I can’t control myself, and she will be my girl one day. What’s the difference between today and the future?”
That night was like a storm that had arrived without warning; Xu Youning floated up and down in a strange world.
She thought, “From now on, each minute when I’m with Mu Sijue will be my secret happiness.”
It was like a dream; even if she woke up from it one day, she would never regret it.
