Chapter 1768: Xiao Ying and Long Ming’s Ending (11)
Xiao Ying froze, not daring to breathe.
Lowering her long eyelashes, she stared at the man’s hands around her waist.
His hand was very beautiful, his bones well-defined, long, and strong.
Biting her lower lip, she could not help but ask, “Why… are you hugging me?”
Did he remember something?
His hatred for her was not so strong anymore. Was he starting to like her?
The man said nothing, merely looking down at the woman in his arms.
Her skin was very fair and smooth, without any pores.
Under the bright lights in the room, her fair ears could still be seen.
He could not help but raise his hand to pinch her ear.
His fingertips were cool and the moment he pinched her, it felt like a mountain stream flowing by.
Xiao Ying’s face immediately flushed red.
She could not help but turn back to look at him. “What are you doing… Ah!”
Before she could finish, the hand that was pinching her ear suddenly tightened its grip, turning into a tug.
It was rare for her ears to be pulled by others and it really hurt.
She used her elbow to push the man behind her away and took two steps forward. She turned around and glared at him angrily. “Why are you grabbing me?” She was not a child anymore!
Long Ming stared at Xiao Ying, whose face was covered in a thin layer of redness, his eyes dark. “You’ve been making me uncomfortable recently, so I won’t let you have it easy either.”
He would pull her ear to make her life difficult?
Why was he so childish?
Looking at her unhappy expression, he stared at the porcelain cup in her hand. Seeing that there was still more than half of the hangover tea left, he frowned. “Finish it.”
Xiao Ying really did not want to complain, but this hangover tea was extremely bad!
Could it be…
“Did you make it yourself?”
Long Ming’s expression was cold. “The butler made it!”
Really?
The hangover tea made by the butler in the past had not tasted so bad!
Seeing Xiao Ying’s doubtful expression, Long Ming glared at her fiercely. “Finish it under half a minute!”
Why was he so domineering and strong?
“What if I don’t?”
“Then, I’ll feed you myself.” With that said, he took a step toward her.
The tall figure loomed over her, blocking the light and making her feel pressured.
Xiao Ying looked at his firm gaze. Thinking that he was doing this for her own good, she held her breath and finished the tea in one gulp.
After drinking it, she frowned and stuck out her tongue.
It was really bad.
Seeing her expression, Long Ming’s eyes darkened as he took out a candy from his bathrobe.
He peeled the paper and brought it to her lips. “Open your mouth.”
Hearing her words, Xiao Ying opened her mouth and a round candy entered her mouth.
It was fragrant, soft, and sweet.
Xiao Ying looked at the man who had prepared the candy, her eyes turning gentler. “Long Ming, why… are you treating me nicely again?”
“Do you think I’m treating you nicely?” As the man spoke, he took another step toward her. Xiao Ying had no choice but to step back, her slender back pressed against the French windows behind her.
The man’s long hands were placed on the French windows on both sides of her body. He looked at her with his eagle-like eyes. “What kind of magic do you have to make me fall for you again and again?”
Xiao Ying was speechless. Had he been trapped this time? It seemed like she hadn’t done anything, had she?
Looking at his dark eyes that seemed to want to suck her in, she coughed and turned her head, avoiding his gaze. “Maybe you owed me something in your past life!”
“Really?” Had he owed her something in his previous life?
The man hugged her, his well-defined face buried in her beautiful neck.
Her waist was very slender like a willow tree.
Smelling the faint fragrance on her hair, his eyes were filled with complicated emotions. Suddenly, he opened his mouth and bit her neck.
Xiao Ying gasped in pain.
But she did not stop or push him away.
He looked up, his sharp lips stained with the blood on her neck. He sighed, as if he had accepted his fate. “I hate you, but I hate myself even more!”
If she hated him, why did it have to be her?
Xiao Ying wanted to say something when he suddenly lifted her chin, a handsome face enlarging in her vision.
…
In the morning, the soft light shone into the room through the curtains.
Xiao Ying slowly opened her eyes, her mind still groggy. She had drunk a lot last night and had been brought to the palace by Long Ming. Then…
Seeming to have thought of something, Xiao Ying turned around and saw Long Ming.
He was still sleeping, but she was no longer sleepy.
Turning around, she could not help but size up the man beside her.
It had been a long time since she had seen him properly.
He was sleeping deeply, lying quietly on his side. After a night, a faint stubble had grown on his firm jaw, but it was not messy at all. Instead, it was slightly charming, showing the charm of a mature man.
Xiao Ying’s gaze moved from his eyebrows to his thick eyelashes, his high nose bridge, and his scarlet lips.
She raised her slender hand and could not help but caress his well-defined face.
The moment she touched him, he grabbed her fingers.
A low and hoa.r.s.e voice sounded. “Stop it.”
Xiao Ying’s heart thumped.
“Long Ming, do you know who I am?”
“Ross, stop it.”
Hearing him call her ‘Ross’, Xiao Ying’s heart sank.
She retracted her hand from his, preparing to leave.
But the next second, her wrist was grabbed by the man and she fell into his arms.
The man rested his chin on the top of her head, a low and hoa.r.s.e laughter coming from the depths of his throat. “Ross, where are you going?”
Xiao Ying really wanted to kick him to the Pacific Ocean.
“Who’s your Ross? Go find her!”
Xiao Ying pushed him away angrily, taking her clothes and leaving.
Staring at her back, Long Ming sat up from the bed, a faint smile appearing on his thin lips.
…
Xiao Ying arrived at Wan Bao’s room.
After Xiao Ying washed up and changed her clothes, Wan Bao woke up.
Seeing Xiao Ying, a bright smile appeared on the little girl’s pretty and soft face. “Mommy, you really appeared! I told Daddy last night that I missed Mommy. Daddy told me to sleep and I would see Mommy when I opened my eyes!”
“I’m really seeing it. Daddy didn’t lie to me.”
Xiao Ying was a little embarra.s.sed. Last night, she had thought that Long Ming missed her so much that he had picked her up personally. It turned out that Wan Bao missed her.
…
Xiao Ying took Wan Bao to the dining room downstairs.
Long Ming was already sitting there. He was dressed in black and he looked tall and domineering. Under his short hair, his facial features were cold and handsome. Seeing Xiao Ying and Wan Bao coming over, his dark eyes landed on Wan Bao. “Are you happy?”
Wan Bao nodded and met Long Ming’s eyes. Receiving his gaze, she lifted her soft face and said to Xiao Ying, “Mommy, I missed you so much recently. Can you stay in the palace? I want to see Mommy every day when I open my eyes.”
Xiao Ying caressed the baby’s head. “If you miss Mommy, you can go and stay with Mommy for a few days!”
“But I’ll miss Daddy.” Wan Bao pouted her lips. “Mommy, Mommy, stay for a few days!”
