Chapter 136: Rubbing or Licking?
Xu Nuan sighed in relief when the door unlocked. She took a deep breath and carefully opened the door; she peeked inside to see if he woke up hearing the noise made by this stupid machine or not. But thankfully the lights were close and there seems to be no movement.
Her lips curled up in a smirk seeing the darkness in the living room as she carefully stepped inside the house, making sure to not make any sound while walking.
Her heart was beating fast and due to the extreme silence, she could hear the sound of her breathing.
” Ah” she squealed as she almost fell over her steps. Her eyes widened in shock as she hurriedly covered her mouth with her hand and looked around to see if the lights of Han Zihao’s room were open. She sighed in relief seeing that everything was still dark and quiet.
” Kitchen was on this side right?” she murmured in a low voice while turning to the left. Her hands were stretched out, checking if nothing was in her way. She can’t afford to fall after bumping into something and be caught by him.
She blinked, trying to adjust her vision to the darkness to see the way in front of her. Everything was going right and she could feel that she almost reached the kitchen when someone held onto her shoulder from behind and turned her around.
“AHHH” Her eyes widened as she couldn’t help but scream in fear, afraid that a ghost with unfinished business came to get his revenge on her. Since she became Xu Nuan rather than dying like a normal person and going to heaven, she got a second chance to live. She always wondered if she had any special powers to see ghosts or angels or something.
.....
‘Is this the start of her supernatural unique life?’ Multiple thoughts crossed across her mind, in those 5 seconds before her body was pulled into something sturdy and strong.
“Ouch!” she frowned as her body fell into someone’s embrace, the man wrapped his one arm around her waist, balancing her while her face was against the man’s chest.
Xu Nuan closed her eyes, afraid of the scoldings coming her way as she knew who could it be.
” Ah, seems like I am not crazy!” she said, relief that there are no ghosts to haunt her.
‘Ah, this cologne? What brand is it? Smells nice!” she commented and sniffled raising her head, towards his nape. Her hands were holding onto Han Zihao’s arms for her balance, while she was on her toes, smelling his unique yet fragrant smell.
Han Zihao on the other hand looked at the girl who was acting as if everything was normal. Despite being caught by him after breaking into his house, she was acting as if everything was normal and she did nothing wrong in that.
He was initially surprised by her boldness and was about to give her a lecture when she started her act of innocent attention-seeking cat. From rubbing her head against him, she is now on to sniffing his scent? Is she living with animals that she was learning their attributes as well?
‘Soon from sniffling, she is gonna move onto licking as well.’ He thought, however, as soon as this thought came into his mind, his face turned crimson thinking that he was not supposed to think about it right now.
He turned his head to the side, embarrassed while she kept sniffling and rubbing her lips against his nape. What is she doing?
The house was pitch black dark and her actions were making his veins bulge.
‘Han Zihao, your mind is getting corrupted by this...this...foxy cat!’ He started counting tables in his mind to calm down the electro sensations that her lips were making upon coming in contact with his skin.
” Are you gonna stay like this forever? Get off me!” He said while looking down at her, making her pause in her actions. Since it was dark, he couldn’t see her face but he could imagine her smirking expressions right now.
After watching her in these last few months, he started to understand her personality to some extent. But there are also instances where she had acted opposite to her image in his mind, making him confused, leaving him in wonder if he really knows her that well or not.
Last time when she donated the money from his mother to the orphanage and that girl’s medical expenses. When he offered to help regarding the costumes, she rejected the idea at first. He wasn’t planning to make her wash dishes at first but seeing her rejecting his help, he came up with that idea.
However, she has barely kept that promise and hasn’t washed the dishes since that day!
–
Xu Nuan let out a tired breath and bit her lower lip, wondering if she could stay like this forever, wrapped in his arms. However, hearing his cold tone, she took a deep breath and she finally parted away from him, taking a few steps back.
” I didn’t...knew that you were awake. When did you come?” After a few moments of silence, she asked while laughing nervously as if it was absolutely normal for her to enter his house at night.
He scoffed and said, ” Yes. Fortunately I was awake and happened to see the thief breaking into my place shamelessly!” he commented making her frown.
” Who are you calling a thief? Who broke into your place?” she shouted at him as she felt wronged after hearing his comment.
” You!” he replied coldly, causing her to shut up immediately.
She laughed embarrassedly and said shamelessly, ” Ah, really? But I was not breaking in. I used the password to enter your house, it’s not breaking into your place. It’s just...visiting you at night. Yeah, visiting!” she said while trying to reason her actions with him.
“...”
” So you are saying that if I enter your house at night without your permission but through the door, it won’t be considered as breaking into the house but visiting you?” He folded his hands in front of his chest and asked coldly.
Xu Nuan raised her brows upon hearing his words. Although she could not see his face due to darkness, she could feel the coldness from his words only. She laughed embarrassedly and rubbed her nape, ” Well, it’s not breaking into the house, if it’s you.”
” Every night I wait for you to break into my house, but like a good boy you sleep at your place while covering yourself with a warm blanket,” she said while making dramatic hand gestures causing his eyes to widen in shock.
‘How..How can she be so explicitly shameless? Is his mind dirty or are her words too explicit? How can a girl act like a hooligan?’
He let out a breath in relief that he was awake when he entered his house. Otherwise, who knows what she would have done?
Her comment made his body stiff and froze in its place. His ears turned red, causing his throat to go dry.
He coughed and turned to the side, feeling her constant gaze on him. Her presence was evident even though it was pitch dark.
” Ah, I should turn on the light. Where is the switch?” He turned around to search for the switch while trying to avoid her gaze.
.
She scoffed seeing him all flustered, searching for a switch to turn on the light in his own home.
‘ Seems like after moving in, I would need to change the system of this house. I am gonna make it into a smart house so that from next time, he wouldn’t need to search for a switch to turn on the light like this.’ she thought and looked around the house when he switched on the light.
” Are we gonna stay here after marriage or somewhere else?” she murmured to herself while dreaming about the future which might be far away from her reach.
Han Zihao turned to look at her and asked in confusion, ” You said something?”
” Me? Haha, No! You must be hearing things.” she lied while smiling ear to ear.
” Do you think you’re in a position to laugh like this?” He frowned, causing her smile to disappear.
She pouted her lips and wondered, ‘ What? Why is he being so serious?’
” Come, we need to talk.” He said while making his way to the couch, glancing at her coldly. She blinked hearing his words and bit her lower lip.
‘ Is this some parent-teacher meeting? Ah, wait, we don’t have any children. Husband-wife meeting? Yes! We do look like old couples.’ she nodded and hesitantly made her way to the couch.
Han Zihao watched her smiling and laughing on her own. Is she even taking me seriously right now?
