Chapter 291: Between a rogue and rival

Jia slowly turned, which led her gaze to fall on Mingshen’s irresistible, toned chest. Her brow twitched hard, thinking how she was similarly pinned against this naked chest yesterday too. The R-18 uncensored kiss invaded her thoughts again.

"My breaths are trembling," she spoke in a low voice, "because you keep acting like a hooligan. Also, take your finger off my chest."

"I was just answering your question, Spicy," his equally low voice added more to the invisible tension.

"I wasn’t looking for it to get answered...certainly not surrounded by a half-naked man."

"I just thought to ramp things up a bit, Spicy. So how about...I place my finger here instead?"

He lightly touched her lips with his finger with a devilish smile. "Third time’s the charm, right?"

"...Third time for what?"

Though she had a fair idea of what he was talking about.

With his other hand, he pressed her shoulder against the bookshelf, towering his upper body on her. He bent his deadly gorgeous face towards her.

"Third time for our lips to enjoy each other’s company~"

She glared. "Do you think I am an easy woman you can kiss anytime you want?"

He chuckled. "No way. But I do know that you have been single for far too long. You should learn to take pleasure in some of your bodily functions~"

Jia coughed hard. She gave him a speechless look. "Don’t act so experienced as if you have been in a plethora of relationships. You are in the same boat as me!"

"So how about we change that status quo now?" His eyes sparkled with delight. "We both could enjoy some inexplicable and sinful feelings. Or what? Are you afraid you would get seduced by me?"

The corner of her mouth twitched. "Do you see me drooling or falling drop dead at your half-naked sight which apparently, any other woman in my place would have?"

"I am sure I could bring a change in those feelings if we just complete the third circuit of kiss."

He bent more, threateningly close to capture her lips. But she slid the heavy medical textbook in between their faces.

She smiled. "How about you complete your third circuit of kiss with your favorite medicine?"

Mingshen frowned at that unexpected disturbance. Suddenly, he wasn’t so thrilled with the textbook’s existence.

"Oh my," a voice came from outside the room and they turned.

Jia’s eyes widened and her jaw slightly dropped.

"Miss. Xie...?"

What is she doing here?

Mulan stood at his room’s entrance with a raised brow. "Was I disturbing something?"

Before Jia could answer, Mingshen did. "Yes. I am very close to brainwashing Spicy about exploring her bodily feelings with me. So how about you close that door on your way out?"

Jia - "..."

She abruptly pushed Mingshen’s chest away with the same heavy textbook, making him falter back. She nervously laughed. "He is just joking. You cannot take his words seriously."

"How much of it?"

"All of it," she didn’t hesitate at all.

He scrunched his brows. "How come you didn’t feel my sincerity-"

Jia lowkey jabbed her foot on top of his, which was hard enough to make him inhale a sharp, painful breath.

"Don’t talk nonsense in front of a woman who is actually interested in making you her husband," She hummed the sentence with the barest movement of her lips, which was audible enough for only Mingshen to hear.

He hummed his reply in the same manner. "But I am more interested in climbing on the bed with you."

She stared at his no-nonsense expression and wanted to just disappear.

Yeah, it was a mistake spending the night here.

"What a surprise to see Inspector Song here," Mulan folded her arms. "Did you two actually..."

Mingshen beamed. "Yes, we-"

"Aunt Bingqing insisted that I stay the night here at the mansion. I couldn’t refuse her. Don’t worry, I slept in the guestroom."

"I wouldn’t have felt offended if you had said that you couldn’t help but sneak into my room last and jumped onto me, ravaging me with your bodily desires and I helplessly going along with the flow."

"..."

Jia smiled, her fury evident in her glowing eyes. "How could I concoct false stories and ruin my reputation? It’s more about offending myself with the lies than you."

He scoffed.

Mulan arched her brow. "The devil does really like a woman."

Her brow twitched. "He is just messing with me."

"You like to mess with the person you like."

What kind of twisted logic is that?

Jia coughed and broke into a cold sweat.

Ugh, I shouldn’t be here. She is really serious in becoming Mrs. Yang, is she not? I should leave before more misunderstandings occur!

"*Ahem* I will give my greetings to Uncle and Aunt and leave. B-Bye."

Jia tightly hugged the textbook to her chest and swiftly escaped the awkward situation without a second’s delay.

Mulan blinked and pointed at her retreating back as she looked at Mingshen.

"She forgot to keep the textbook back on your shelf."

He shrugged. "The whole mansion is hers. She can take whatever she wants."

Mulan’s eyes squinted. "You are serious about wooing her."

He grabbed one of his shirts from his wardrobe.

"Woo? Who? I am not wooing anybody."

"Then what does your behavior look like to you? Especially the part where you took her out for a date yesterday when in fact it should have been me for bailing out your employee?" She chuckled.

"Why should I take you out for a date just because you bailed out my employee? First of all, I don’t feel thankful because I didn’t ask you and even if I did, gratitude isn’t enough of a reason to score a date with me," he sneered while buttoning his shirt.

"Why not? You are doing the same thing, are you not? Isn’t it gratitude why you are paying so much extra attention to Inspector Song?" She smiled. "Gratitude for saving your medical license?"

He stopped with the buttoning and looked at her.

"You didn’t ask her to take the blame for your decision and put her badge at risk to save your license but she did it anyway. So you are very grateful to her and hence all this special doting."

His eyes narrowed.

"You didn’t tell me to bail out Bai Yingtai either, but I did it anyway to save you the media trouble and hassle. So should I not get some special treatment too as part of your gratitude~?" She winked.
