Chapter 750 What should she do now?
Lu Tian"s words entered one of Yue Ling"s ears in a deep voice with seductiveness. It shot an electric wave throughout her body making her turn even redder than she already was.
"I…"
She stutters again as her brain still didn"t want to turn back on. She felt like a tiny rabbit trapped in a corner by a wolf.
Even if she did think of what to say, she was still guilty. She was the one who had been staring at him.
Should she just come up with a lame excuse to get herself out of this situation?
The second she thought about the question, she inhales a deep breath before exhaling. No, she can"t. She can"t lie to herself like this.
She is her mother and father"s daughter and the granddaughter of the almighty General Ji and Fate"s former leader, Old Han.
She was born and raised to be a strong woman. If someone wronged her, she would make them pay the price. However, if she is in the wrong, she must own up to her mistake.
Thinking this way, she ignored her bright red face and raise both her arms. Gently placing her palms on his toned chest, she slightly turns her head to him and whispers in his ear.
"Who said I wasn"t going to take responsibility?"
Her soft and angelic voice faintly blew into Lu Tian"s ear. This time, it was he who felt a wave of electricity shot throughout his body from head to toe.
His ears turned red as he didn"t expect such a response from her. He thought he was going to be able to tease her more. However, despite how surprised he was, his eyes quickly darken when he felt the beast below waking up.
All it took was a small breath from her to arouse him.
He clenched his teeth with a low growl then lowers his posture. He circles one arm around her waist as his other hand wraps under her b.u.t.tocks.
He swiftly picks her up like a toddler and strides out of the bathroom after opening the door.
"Ah!"
Yue Ling exclaimed in surprise and shock. Never did she think he would suddenly pick her up and toss her over his shoulder.
"Tian, what are you doing? Put me down."
She raises her voice in protest against him, but his response made her speechless yet again.
"I"ll put you down where you can take responsibility."
His words fell with a chuckle and strides in the direction of the bed while carrying her like a precious sack of rice.
Yue Ling"s shoulders tremble like she was crying, but unable to shed a single tear, she could only let her body dangle loosely along with her arms.
It was all a trap. Everything he said was a trap and she had fallen right into it.
"You really are a devil."
She murmurs begrudgingly and stops struggling. However, she had forgotten that Lu Tian was a man with no shame in front of her.
He brought her to the bed and carefully place her down. His body lowers on top of her before raising one hand to caress the side of her face.
His hand trails further down but only to twirl a few strands of her damped hair around his index finger.
He slowly brought her hair to his lip and place a soft kiss on it with dark eyes locked with her bluish-green ones.
"I am a devil, but a devil madly in love with you."
Yue Ling laid on the bed and stares up at the man on top of her. She could see a glimmering light in his eyes full of mischief, but for some reason, she couldn"t read his mind at this moment.
However, remembering something, her blus.h.i.+ng face intensifies.
Lu Tian had carried her out of the bathroom naked and….
She swallows a hard gulp and kept her eyes on his face. She did dare to look anywhere else as she could feel the tip of a fully awakened dragon pressed against her entrance below.
She knew that if he wanted to, all he had to was lower himself a little more and he could easily slip inside her.
Unprepared for what is to happen, she raises both her hands and places her palms on his chest like she was trying to help him not fall onto her.
"W-We should get ready for bed. Tomorrow is going to be a very busy day for us."
Lu Tian arched a brow like she made a point but pretends like he had not seen right through her intentions. One corner of his mouth curls up into a side smirk and he lets her hair on his finger fall loosely down.
"Mm, I guess we should."
He lowers his head and softly pecks her red lips before pulling away.
Yue Ling sighed in relief hearing his agreement. She indeed needed to sleep because when the sun comes up, she will be meeting with Madam Lu, Zhao Ya"Er, and Madam Zhao for her dress fitting.
She could already tell that it will be a long day, so she hopes to get as much rest as possible.
As she thought about what tomorrow will be like, she caught a glimpse of Lu Tian"s expression again.
He didn"t get up from her but remained on top. The smirk on his face had turned into a devilish one like he had come up with an evil plan and his voice sounds.
"Then again, does this mean you have decided to run away without taking responsibility?"
"…"
Yue Ling was in utter disbelief at what she was hearing. She honestly thought that he would let her slide by using his mother, aunt, and cousin as an excuse, but how could she forget that he rather tired her out, so she doesn"t have to see them.
What should she do now?
Pretend to faint? No, that won"t work on him.
Push him away? No, he will be hurt, and she doesn"t want to see him hurt.
Scream for Inu? Oh, wait, Inu isn"t home.
As she tries to come up with a plan to get herself out, Lu Tian suddenly rolls off of her. He laid on his side on the left of her with his left arm propped on the bed holding his head.
However, despite the fact that he was no longer on top of her, his right arm was still on top of her stomach while his right leg secured her legs like a snake.
"So, have you decided? Are you going to run away or take responsibility?"
His question stunned Yue Ling so much that she didn"t know how to respond. All the excuses she had thought dispersed like a balloon being deflated.
Both her hands were still positioned midair in front of her and she curls them into fists.
If Lu Tian"s chest were still there, she would have squeezed it until he felt pain. However, due to his sudden change in position, she could only grasp onto the air.
She inhales a deep breath and raises her chin like the proud woman she is. She turns her head to look at him and her entire being flashes with seriousness.
"I never go back on my words."
