Chapter 237 - I can see improvements.
Feng Shufen's fists got clenched at the side. Though he has not seen her in that pain, just the thought of it was making his blood boil. "What if I help you in building a reason to attain this dream back? Will you continue it then?"
Putting a soothing smile on her lips, Li Xue moved her hands up to cup the man's cheeks, gently moving her thumb pads to ease his stiff expressions.
"I know you have got the reasons to make me abide by your arrangements at the end of the day. But I am sure that there is still some time left in you letting me know about it. If it hadn't been that way, then you wouldn't have chosen to go off-topic at first. You wouldn't have tried to deviate my mind from the beginning". She said and she was perfectly right about it.
Not only Shufen has started to know her better but it has also been Li Xue. She did not know when and how it happened but now she was even able to read the man's slightest gaze. No doubt she knew it's because the man was allowing her to get close to him, same as she has allowed him to do so.
One person can only be capable of reading the other when the person allows him or her to do so. And with a personality like Feng Shufen, this theory becomes more prominent.
The man smiled lightly at her words and then softly patting her head, he said, "Yes, you are right. First allow me to make sure of a few things then I will let you know everything about it. For now, you can go to bed soon. You need some good rest too".
Good rest!
Li Xue could not control her head getting dizzy at his words. "Mr Beelzebub, I think I have taken enough rest for the whole year in just one day. And you are still asking me to take more?"
The man plainly nodded and said, "Of course you have to treat yourself better from now on. Or do you want WeiWei to blame me in future, thinking her Daddy Angel didn't treat her Mama in a better way".
Li Xue just pouted at his words as a few strands of her hair came over her side of her face lightly. Shufen looked at her and smiled, then pushing the wild strands back to their original places, he said, "You deserve everything good in this world. I am already late to bring those to you, so allow me to mend for all those years when I was not around you".
Li Xue looked at him for quite some moment as her expressions kept on changing. First, there was a feeling of the heart being touched, then came the happiness and contentment, again contemplation and at the end, there was accusation and inference on her expressions.
Shufen raised his brows at her, "Do you want to say something?". He asked in his usual gentle voice of his, that he has kept reserved for her.
The woman instantly nodded her head in acceptance. "Can you tell me how many years' experience, do you have to be this experienced with women? I mean, your word and actions are so swift and sweet that it can easily win any woman's heart in just a moment. Will I ever be able to win over these sweet tricks of yours?"
"What do you think?" he asked, not giving any reply properly.
"You know this would be the second time of you avoiding the reply. I don't want to be a jealous girlfriend to you but you better not provoke me anymore. Come on, clearly answer me", She said, squinting her eyes sharply at him. If her eyes had been some weapon to be used then at this moment, it might have already let the man know how much jealousy stings to heart.
Giving a flutter of laughter, the man pinched her cheeks softly, "Do I really have to give an answer? I thought I already did that last week."
"Nope! Last week too, you just ignored it, deviating the topic towards the file I brought to your office. And don't pinch my cheeks, I am not a baby to you".
Shaking his head, he suddenly made his expression go serious as he said, "You are the only woman who has got so much effect on me. Made me feel the things I have never felt in my life. So do you still want to know what and how much experience I have?"
He asked firmly, bringing his face much closer to hers and without giving any prior notice, he placed his lips over hers, as if putting the seal on the words he has said now. The kiss was neither soft nor rough … somewhere in the mid.
Li Xue was too stunned to reciprocate at first but as it went by, her lips and tongue soon started reciprocating on its own. Her hands went to hold the man by his shoulders and his hands went to make her face angel properly to deepen the kiss. Their lips brushed along each other, tongues dwelled for peace and understanding, making the couple enjoy their moment.
After a good moment, everything stopped, leaving Li Xue breathless and Shufen smiling. "You are a quick learner, I see. I can see the improvements!"
Li Xue bit her lips lightly to hide her embarrassment then suddenly all bold, she said, "And your actions seemed too much experienced to make me believe your words".
"It's your fault, my dear wife. You are too irresistible to allow me to be inexperienced with you" the words were sweetly crossing the peak of shamelessness and it instantly made Li Xue's cheeks flush red.
"Enough! Can you please be any less shameless for once? I get it … I won't ever be able to win over you. I guess, this is the point for me to surrender". She said pulling her hands up to follow her words but the man held her arms, pulling her close.
"Too late, love! You have long won over me … the day I saw you first. And that's something I can never try to turn over. You have become an abyss chasm in which I willingly want to go deeper and deeper"
