“How is that possible?” He cocked a brow and smiled faintly at her. “Xiao Ya, you’re my most important person; no one can replace you!”
Tears welled up in the woman’s eyes as she hugged him in agitation and gave him a lingering French kiss.
Scents of lust swirled around the king-size bed in the hotel room.
Two hands lay interlocked on the bed. Amid the gasping sounds came a lazy moan of the female.
The sheets lay crumpled and in disarray.
After their intimate activity, the sound of the shower could be heard from the bathroom.
Hua Jin sat leaning against the headboard, fiddling with the cigarette in his hand as he smoked.
He stared vacantly at the empty space before him with an indolent yet nonchalant look on his alluring face. Under his disheveled, wet fringe were a pair of slightly dazed, almond-shaped eyes, which had gradually darkened in the lingering smoke.
In the ashtray found at the edge of the bed lay several snuffed cigarette butts.
The man suddenly flipped open the white cover from his bare body and got off the bed to don a bathrobe. He then walked over to the window and peeled open a corner of the window blinds, condescendingly overlooking the city nightscape.
An involuntary smirk spread across his face as Yun Shishi’s sullen face appeared in his mind. He found it very interesting.
That girl is quite intriguing!
A warm female body suddenly pressed against his back.
“Who’s on your mind?”
He recollected his thoughts and turned slightly to face the coquettish woman who was back-hugging him.
“You.”
Her cheeks reddened a little.
“What took you so long?”
“Jin.”
“Huh?”
Her red lips parted. “I watched your press conference.”
“Oh,” he replied dismissively and in a chilly tone, “What’s worth watching about it?”
At her mention of that event, she turned inexplicably fretful. “From your screen time, I noticed that you kept staring at an actress. ”
He feigned ignorance. “Which one?”
“The one in white! I can’t recall her name, but it has a ‘Shi’ in it!”
He kept silent.
She tightened her embrace around him, feeling aggrieved and displeased about his unconcerned attitude. “I’ve never seen you looking at me with such passionate eyes before! Between me and her, who is prettier?”
“Of course, it’s you.”
He turned around and grabbed her jaw, smirking wickedly. “No one can match up to you.”
The woman could not resist pouting as her face flushed. “Do you know? I love this mouth of yours the most; it’s always so sweet.”
He, however, merely deepened his smirk. “You know what? I like your mouth, too.”
“…Yeah?”
As he nibbled on her earlobe, he breathed into her ear. “You bite really hard at times.”
“You…”
She pouted playfully as she pushed him back. Her shy face, though, revealed a sweet smile.
He gave her a reassuring hug in return, but in her blind spot, those charming eyes of his revealed a hint of aloofness and indifference.
He was no longer as passionate as before. In fact, he was somewhat filled with bone-cold weariness.
…
When Yun Shishi got back home, she found her boys excitedly tearing apart the packaging of some parcels in the living room.
Because of her quiet entrance, the two kids, in their excited state, failed to notice her.
Even the older boy, with his keen senses, failed to detect her return.
