Chapter 476: Are You Trying to Chase Me Away?
It would not be a problem at all to Third Brother. He knew he should maintain the way he interacted with Hu Ran before she revealed her true self to the public. If they made a mistake in front of the others and exposed themselves, he would put Hu Ran in danger.
Hence, he nodded solemnly. “Then you should tell me how you managed to escape from the traps your stepmother set all this while.”
Hu Ran nodded and started recounting the unhappy experiences she had in her life.
…
At night, it felt a bit hot in the room with a heater running.
By the time Mu Qiqi and Lu Qianqian ended their phone conversation, it was already eleven o’clock. When Sheng Xiao went into the room and saw the little one smiling excitedly, he could guess what they had been talking about. “Do you women really like to talk about such intimate things?”
“It is the right for a woman to show off her happiness.” Mu Qiqi refuted while putting away her phone.
“Is Lu Qianqian consulting you about your experience?”
“How did you know this?” Mu Qiqi was startled. “Tell me, Xiaoxiao. Can you really see through a person’s mind?”
Sheng Xiao sat on the bed and pulled Mu Qiqi into his arms. He rested her head on his laps. “It’s obvious. Lu Qianqian is attending a meeting with the board of directors and Lin Mu’an is meeting her today to cheer her on. Of course he will do something.”
“Boring.” Mu Qiqi crawled onto Sheng Xiao and lay on him lazily. “I really hope the people around me can be happy. I wonder if Miss Hu has made up her mind to fight alongside Third Brother. Otherwise, Third Brother will suffer his whole life.”
Sheng Xiao stroked Mu Qiqi’s hair. Her hair was sleek black and silky soft. He could smell the nice scent as his fingers ran across her hair. He sighed. “You always think about other people. Do you still remember what I told you before? On the day you reach twenty, we shall go abroad and register our marriage.”
“Does it matter to have or not to have that piece of paper?” Mu Qiqi rolled over and asked Sheng Xiao, “It is not recognized here either.”
“Are you starting to care less about me?”
“Why would I? Because I care very much for you, I don’t think that piece of paper matters anymore. I believe in our bond.” Mu Qiqi hugged Sheng Xiao’s waist. “It’s great now. I feel secure.”
However, Sheng Xiao pinned his hands on her bottoms and said, “No, I don’t. What if you flee one day?”
“Can’t you just catch me back to your side if I run away?” Mu Qiqi yawned in Sheng Xiao’s arms nonchalantly. “Xiaoxiao, I feel sleepy. Let’s rest.”
Sheng Xiao nodded and let her lie on the bed. Only after she closed her eyes, he went to the bathroom to wash up. Then, he went to bed.
They seemed to be like a couple living together for years. Looking at the little one, Sheng Xiao felt helpless. How could she not care about registering their marriage? It made the mighty CEO feel a bit hurt.
…
On the other hand, knowing Lu Qianqian was going to the meeting, Lin Mu’an went on an outing to meet her.
Mama Lu cooked some dishes they like and the three of them had a warm and happy lunch together.
After lunch, Mama Lu went to the next door to chat with the neighbors. And Lin Mu’an accompanied Lu Qianqian in the study room to read the doc.u.ments for the upcoming meeting.
“Are you nervous?”
Lu Qianqian looked at Lin Mu’an and nodded. “I feel as if I am going to an interview.”
“The representatives of Zhongteng will be there as well. They will help you. Don’t worry.”
“I know they will. But I still hope that I can do it by myself. I want to convince those old codgers with my own ability.” Lu Qianqian was serious. “I want to let them know I am no longer the useless young girl who is just good as a display. I have really been working hard in learning how to be a businessperson in these few years.”
Lin Mu’an hugged her and kissed her on her forehead. “I believe in you.”
“Aren’t you going back to the police academy? It’s late already.” Lu Qianqian asked, although she knew he purposely stayed to accompany her.
“Are you chasing me away?”
“Of course, I hope you can stay,” Lu Qianqian said frankly.
Lin Mu’an put his hand behind Lu Qianqian’s head and pulled her toward him. He kissed her pa.s.sionately.
Lying on the carpet in the study, they could not get enough of the kisses. In the end, Lin Mu’an could not hold it anymore and lifted Lu Qianqian. “Let’s go to the bedroom.”
The big bed in Lu Qianqian’s room sank as they got onto the bed. Lu Qianqian’s face was flushed with excitement. Lying on the bed, she was thinking about the tricks Mu Qiqi had taught her, for instance, look for the sensitive point of the man. But when it was happening, she was too nervous to know where to put her hand.
“Remember to breathe.” Lin Mu’an reminded her. She was holding her breath.
Lu Qianqian was a little embarra.s.sed. When they had taken off all their clothes, she felt even more embarra.s.sed.
Seeing her like this, Lin Mu’an felt a bit uneasy. He was jealous. He was jealous because somebody else had seen such a beautiful side of her.
Entangling with each other, they could feel the high temperature of their bodies.
But Lin Mu’an pinned Lu Qianqian’s hands on the bed and said, “Now that we are lovers, I will be unable to control my desire for wanting you sometimes. I really feel like devouring you now. But even if you believe in me, I still hope that this happens naturally when it is safe enough. Then only I can enjoy myself fully. Hence, I will just hold you and sleep tonight, to satisfy my longing for you. It’s good enough.”
Lu Qianqian could feel his excitement. And she appreciated his caring.
“Then, let’s sleep.”
“Don’t move. Or else I can’t guarantee if I can hold it.” Lin Mu’an lay on the bed beside her. He hugged Lu Qianqian tightly. Although they were naked and their bodies were touching each other, he still kept his mind clear.
Lu Qianqian felt rea.s.sured and wrapped her arms around Lin Mu’an’s waist.
She did not feel awkward at all. She felt secure, because this man made her feel worthy.
Perhaps this night would be the most unbearable night for Lin Mu’an in his whole life.
Having a woman he loved in his arms, but he could only embrace and kiss her, was a fatal test to a man.
But, he could endure it!
The next morning, the couple woke up in each other’s arms. Lin Mu’an looked at Lu Qianqian’s chest and commented, “Tsk-tsk, I didn’t see them last night. Apparently, they are just two steamed buns.”
“And yours is just a chopstick.” Lu Qianqian grabbed her nightgown. Suddenly, Lin Mu’an threw away her nightgown. He pinned her under his body and kissed her wildly.
“Good luck, silly girl. You must be worthy of my sacrifices!”
