Chapter 855 - Let Me Take The Hea
The awkward silence stretched on as the shocked Sun Jingfei failed to reply to Lu Zihao’s words. It became too unbearable for Long Jinjing, so she hurried towards Lu Zihao and tried to push him back into the bedroom.
"Niko—Zihao, please put on some clothes," she pleaded. "I’ll talk to my mom first, okay? Come out again only if you’re...uhm...not as naked. It’s incredibly distracting." Then she leaned closer and whispered to him, "Please be a little, uhm, mindful when you talk to my mom later, Nikolai. She might have a h-heart attack if you say something, er, too shocking. Mom’s a little delicate, you see."
He raised an eyebrow but there was amusement glinting in his eyes. "Now I know where you got it from," he murmured.
She was too distracted by her embarrassment and worried about the current situation with her mother that she missed what he said. "What did you say? I didn’t hear you clearly."
"Nothing." His mouth curved into a small, amused smile. Now it was his turn to lean down and whisper to her. Unlike her worried tone, however, his tone sounded wicked, even more so than usual. "Alright. I’ll put on some clothes now. I think that you should too, you know. I don’t think your mother will appreciate it if you continue talking to her while the outline of your nipples is showing through your silk robe."
She looked down and saw that what he said was true. She immediately covered her chest with both of her hands as pure embarrassment filled her, causing her eyes to become teary. She wished that she was still sleeping and that this embarrassing situation was all just a dream. However, she knew that her wish was futile. There was no choice but to swallow her own embarrassment and deal with the current situation with her mother.
"Mom, please wait here a moment while Ni—Zihao and I p-put on some clothes, okay?"
After saying that, she dragged Lu Zihao back to the bedroom and shut the door without waiting for her mother’s reply. Once inside the bedroom, she dropped to a squat on the floor, curled her body into a ball, and covered her face with her hands.
"This is too embarrassing! I can’t believe my mother witnessed that!"
"It’s not as bad as you think it is," he told her.
She lifted her head and saw him already putting on fresh clothes. Shun gave her a small bag of Lu Zihao’s clothing the other day and she emptied out a drawer in her dresser for his items.
"What do you mean it’s not as bad as I think it is? My mom totally knows that we’re having sex! I’m so embarrassed!"
He paused before putting on a T-shirt. Then he crossed his arms over his chest and narrowed his eyes at her. His muscles flexed with his movement, causing her to swallow some fresh saliva that pooled inside her mouth.
"You’re embarrassed of me?" he asked in a dangerous tone.
"No! That’s n-not what I mean!" She stood up in a hurry and ran towards him until they were standing in front of each other. She tried to grab his arms but failed in moving him even an inch. He was like a stone statue, impossible to move with her measly strength.
He didn’t reply but his razor-sharp gaze on her intensified, silently telling her to explain herself.
She squirmed under his silent pressure but forced herself to meet his eyes. "I...uhm, I just meant that the situation was t-too embarrassing. Aren’t y-you embarrassed at being caught by my mom?"
"Why would I feel embarrassed? Aren’t we in a ’respectable’ relationship like you wanted? Since this is the case, then there’s no need to be embarrassed." She opened her mouth and was about to argue but he didn’t let her cut him off. "So what if it’s your mother who caught us? She should know that her daughter is already an adult. Is she against you having a boyfriend?"
"N-no...."
"Then I’m sure that she knows about the possibility of you having sex with your boyfriend. And also, don’t treat your mother like a child. She gave birth to you. How did she get a child? By having sex, don’t you already know that? Sex is a normal part of human life and nothing to be ashamed of. Those who think that it’s shameful are a bunch of hypocrites. Don’t you dare become a hypocritical puritan or I’ll spank you while fucking you harder than you’ve ever been fucked before. Then I’ll make you crave it from me so much that you’ll beg me to do it to you again and again."
"You!" She glanced at the closed door with a face as red as a baboon’s butt. "Don’t be so loud. What if my mother hears you?"
He shrugged.
"And that’s not the main point here, Nikolai. The point is that all children will feel embarrassed upon being caught in the act by their parents or any family members for that matter."
He shrugged again. "I’m not embarrassed at all. Like I said, sex is a normal part of human life. If not, then we wouldn’t be able to produce the next generation like how we’ve been programmed to do."
"But—"
"But nothing, Jinjing. Hurry up and put on some clothes. Let’s not keep your mother waiting for too long."
"Oh! Right." She immediately grabbed some random clothes from her dresser.
Lu Zihao was already fully-clothed and just waiting for her to finish. He said, "Don’t overthink the situation. It’s really not as bad as you think it is. If your mother scolds you, let me take the heat. You’re my woman now, Jinjing, as I keep on reminding you. I’ll protect my woman even if it’s from her own parent. No big deal."
Warmth filled her chest at his domineering yet still sweet words even as she felt frustrated by his nonchalance and failure to understand her embarrassment. Sighing, she could only trust in him and hope that everything would be fine just like what he said.
