Chapter 36: Chapter 35 Wanting to Possess for Oneself

After shutting the door, Gao Chuan suddenly wrapped his arms around the slender waist of the girl in his embrace, spun around, and pinned her against the wall near the entryway. In the dim lighting, the girl’s intoxicated appearance was captured in the man’s dark eyes. Her long eyelashes faintly fluttered under his gaze, and beneath the high bridge of her nose were her soft, delicate cherry lips. Her clear, bright pupils seemed to twinkle like stars, and her rosy cheeks exuded an air of shyness.

Jiang An was trapped within the man’s domain, her misty eyes narrowing slightly as she made out Gao Chuan’s face looming over her. Her butterfly-like lashes beat unconsciously, as if her drunkenness was assailing the last remnants of her sober mind. The next second, the girl raised her hand and inexplicably caressed Gao Chuan’s face a few times before breaking out into a silly grin, "Dr. Gao, what are you doing here?"

Gao Chuan, who had been suppressing his anger inside, felt his heart soften instantly by her touch. He could feel Jiang An’s restless little hand aimlessly roaming his face. Suddenly, he seized her tender wrist with his hand and pulled her closer. The proximity was enough for them to sense each other’s breath. The girl seemed to feel their bodies nearly pressing together, her face flushing as she said with a hint of intoxication, "Dr. Gao, I think I’m drunk."

Seeing the girl’s self-reproachful manner, Gao Chuan couldn’t help but curve his lips into a faint smile. He thought, realizing she was drunk was a good thing. After a moment of silence, he reached out and gently combed through her disheveled hair with his fingers. With rare patience, he looked at her and responded, "Then tell me, should you be drinking?"

With his magnetic voice echoing in the quiet room, Jiang An, who was tightly enfolded at the waist by the man’s strong arms, unable to free herself, turned her head to one side with some embarrassment after hearing his teasing indictment, murmuring like a child admitting an error, "I shouldn’t."

Under the not-so-bright lights, the pretty and youthful face of the girl reddened further, resembling a delicate doll in a display cabinet. Her eyes filled with ripples, and her small, rosy lips, similar to a tender rose waiting to be plucked, captured one’s desire to lean down for a kiss.

"Will you drink again next time?" Gao Chuan silently swallowed, stepping closer with an imposing stare as fierce as a predatory wolf, pressing her for submission. Jiang An lowered her eyelids, her little face flushed to the point of redness due to the man’s presence, while she softly promised, "I won’t drink again."

Her sweet, sticky voice reached his ear, and the two remained in an ambiguous posture. Just as they fell into silence, a gleam of indefinable intent shone in his eyes. His gaze lingering on the girl’s soft lips, he slowly raised his hand to caress one side of her cheek, the delicate touch sending a tremor through him. As he was about to lean down and kiss her, the girl being restrained by her head suddenly turned her face away, anxiously mumbling, "Dr. Gao, we’re too close."

Gao Chuan watched Jiang An’s enticing face heat surge beneath him, eventually realizing what he was about to do, and abruptly stood up, his ears feeling as though they were on fire, and furrowed his brows in annoyance at his own actions toward Jiang An.

Finally released, Jiang An flexed her slightly sore wrist, still in a daze, thinking of walking into her bedroom. She staggered a few steps before being steadied by Gao Chuan. The man escorted the girl waving her arms wildly to the bed in her bedroom. Jiang An, drunk as she was, acted like a ruffled little beast, causing a commotion, and Gao Chuan intended to help her onto the bed but was suddenly pulled by his arm by the person in front of him, and both landed heavily on the bed, sinking into the soft mattress.

Gao Chuan opened his dark eyes, and the girl’s flushed face invaded his field of vision. Sensing the weight on top of her, she made a few uneasy noises and opened her eyes, staring at the man’s exquisitely handsome contours for several seconds before suddenly hooking her arms around his neck again. Her cherry mouth pressed against his lips, sealing them with precision.

A touch of their lips was but a fleeting brush.

Attacked unexpectedly by the person beneath him, Gao Chuan’s eyes widened as he let the girl clumsily peck at his lips. By the time he reacted, Jiang An had already swiftly ended her actions and released the hands from his neck, burying her flushed face shyly and snickering as if she had done something naughty.

Gao Chuan, looking stunned, hastily withdrew from the bed and stood by the window, observing the girl who had already closed her eyes. He placed his palm over the lips she had kissed, a sense of surrealism sprouting in his heart.

Jiang An, who had just ambushed Gao Chuan, seemed quite satisfied and content, licking her lips before closing her eyes and falling asleep. Her carefree demeanor after drinking was just like her typical style. Gao Chuan stood silently by her bed, watching her without a word.

Obviously, the girl before him had unknowingly stirred his heartstrings time and again. The fact that another man had brought her home filled him with an uncontrollable anger, and her seductive drunken gaze made him increasingly uneasy.

At some moment, he thought, only he should see Jiang An when she’s drunk.

To be a bit selfish, he wanted to possess her all to himself.

He had thought it was just human nature’s possessive desire that drove him to care about Jiang An, but when the girl leaned in, he was shocked to find that he had no intention of refusing. He even felt the urge to continue the action.

Unseen, as if Jiang An had cast a wide net, he was the fish easily caught by her, unable to move despite wanting to escape.

The thoroughly exhausted girl had already fallen into a deep sleep. Gao Chuan quietly covered her with a blanket and left her room. The man, feeling overheated, walked silently out to the balcony to bask in the night breeze, the gentle wind lightly grazing his nose.

At that moment, it seemed as if his heart too had been ruffled.
