Lu Jian inched close to his wife and held her slim waist, "Oh, I know you are my master, wife." He grinned and successfully stole a soft peck from her lips.Zhen Xiu was about to curse him when his soft lips touched hers, the sensation was electrifying, it was a brief touch that brought her back in her dreamland.
All her lewd thoughts were flas.h.i.+ng in her eyes and she wanted to gobble this fine specimen of eat in her mouth. As she wrapped her hands around him and brought her mouth closed for a fierce kiss, Lu Jian moved away from her grasp and smirked in return.
"Be patient, love. We are in a trial relations.h.i.+p and I don"t want to mess this up by using l.u.s.ty methods to capture your heart."
He was in a great mood as his wife was taking initiative on her own and wanted to be near him but as an honest man that he was, he didn"t want to use this attraction as his advantage.
It was good that she still felt something for him and it was enough for him. He would win her back from his efforts and not solely because of their carnal desire. His love for her was not based on desire and attraction.
Zhen Xiu was annoyed at the denied kiss and was sulking silently on the bed.
Huh! Beauties were all like these, they didn"t care about others but would do what their heart desires.
She should have known this but her stubborn desire has to raise her ugly head.
All her pretending to give him a chance, to torment him slowly and be like a powerful king in this relations.h.i.+p came to an end as she realized her stupid mistake.
He must be laughing at her.
It was all because of his beautiful face. She knew nothing comes good from a pretty face.
His face was so beautiful. Oh! She can"t even hate his face. She was such a loser.
"What are laughing about? Huh! I was just testing your self- control. It"s best that you know your limits. I am surprised that you could control yourself in front of me."
Zhen Xiu praised her husband so that she could hide her wanton desire for him. She didn"t want to be labeled as a thirsty woman in need. She has a reputation to hold on.
Lu Jian controlled his laugh that was itching to come out of his mouth. "Sure, master! I know."
"Hey! Lu Jian, are you making fun of me? You think you are all that smart." Zhen Xiu gave him a side eye, promising to bury him if he dared laugh out loud.
Lu Jian surrendered his hand and dotingly smoothed her hair like a perfect love-sick husband. Zhen Xiu accepted the treatment with full enthusiasm.
It"s good that he knew his position well if not she would not mind giving him a piece of her.
Lu Jian lay beside her and softly whispered a melody for her. "Sleep! Love."

Shen Ya was not at all tired from her journey and after coming back home she immediately went back to her work.
After finis.h.i.+ng her pending work she had dinner in her office as she was too busy to go back home.
She inquired about her family from her informers and after finding that everything was normal she was able to finally have a rest.
The next morning, Shen Ya got up after hearing her blazing ringtone. Her phone was constantly ringing aloud from the past fifteen minutes.
She wanted to avoid it but the person on the other side was insisting on breaking her beautiful sleep.
It was six in the morning and she barely slept for three hours before some jerk was trying to blast her head.
She grumpily answered her call without noticing the caller id. "Yes, what is it?"
"Girl! Is this Joe you greet your elders?"
A strict voice sounded from the other side. Shen Ya immediately forgot about her sleep and obediently greeted her princ.i.p.al.
It was from James Carter.
Her princ.i.p.al!
Her mentor!
"Uhh! I didn"t see that it was you." Shen Ya sheepishly replied b.u.t.ting her tongue. "I am sorry, Princ.i.p.al."
She knew it was wrong to talk like this to her elder but her princ.i.p.al was disturbing her sleep in the first place and she was only grumpy because of lack of sleep.
It was not even her fault.
"Yeah right! It"s my fault. I am disturbing your sleep." James Carter mocked her from the other side.
He was frustrated because of his students. He was here to look after that naughty girl because of her mother"s request but she didn"t even picked his phone and left him alone at the airport.
He knew that Zhen Xiu was mischievous and didn"t expect much from her and decided to call his favorite student Shen Ya to pick him up.
But to his surprise that girl was also ignoring him.
He has enough of their tantrums.
"You girls will be the death of me. One never pick up my call and the other one is even blaming me for the call. What luck I have?"
Shen Ya bit her tongue in embarra.s.sment. She didn"t mean to speak that loud. She didn"t even realize that her thoughts were not in her mind but we"re already at her mouth.
"Ehh! What happened? You know Xiu she loves to sleep in and beside yesterday was a hard day for her. She must be tired."
Shen Ya defended her friend from the accusations. She knew that it was not that simple for her after getting up from all that and on top of that her relations.h.i.+p problems are there which makes her worried.
She has so much on her plate and Princ.i.p.al was targeting her.
"Well, isn"t it the best friend speaking up? Don"t worry! You don"t need to come here anymore. That lad Ouyang Ming was here and has picked me up from the airport."
Mr. James Carter informed her. He was calling Shen Ya to get information about that little girl, after all, he couldn"t ask Ouyang Ming to get her information now that she was married to that other guy.
"When you are free, come by with your dear friend and visit this old man. I have a piece of good news to tell you."
His jolly voice reached Shen Ya"s ears as he talked about the good news.
What was so exciting that could make this grumpy man come out if his lair?
She wondered in surprise and was also concerned about Ouyang Ming.
Why was he here and what was he doing with the princ.i.p.al?
