Chapter 162: Chapter 162 I was bewildered by your beauty

Mr. Pei Liyan’s breath instantly invaded Qiao Rui’s heart and lungs.

Qiao Rui was a bit panicked, this was the Pei family’s home.

In Elder Pei’s study, he dared to do this.

She struggled, but he didn’t let go. The domineering way he did it made her legs weak.

She also had to admit that this man’s kissing skills were very good.

They dazed her completely, her legs went soft, and she couldn’t stand steady on her feet.

Just like that, Pei Liyan led the rhythm, pressing her against the door.

The entire study was so quiet, the only sounds were their breathing and the slight smacking of saliva mingling.

The sound amplified, making one’s face flush red.

A sense of humiliation snapped Qiao Rui back to reality.

She struggled with all her might, arms pushing outward, trying to shove the man away.

Even more damning was that he didn’t let go, crushing her firmly.

Qiao Rui was also stirred up by the kiss, emotions rushing over her, her whole being melting into a puddle of spring water in his arms.

She was having a tough time coping.

Pei Liyan kissed for a long time, seemingly insatiable.

It wasn’t until he pulled away, seeing her lips so lusciously red, blazing like fiery roses, pressing his forehead against hers, he declared word by word, "Rest easy as Mrs. Pei, Ru’er."

This endearment almost made her jaw drop.

He really knew how to flirt.

He kissed her domineeringly, and then called her "Ru’er" with tender charm.

"Why Ru’er?" Qiao Rui blurted out, "The aunties in the village all like to call me Ruirui."

Pei Liyan’s brows twitched, that name popping up now wasn’t good, he said gruffly, "Ru’er is my exclusive nickname for you."

She pouted, "Mr. Pei really is quite the expert, very good at stirring up feelings."

"So you admit you were seduced by me?" Pei Liyan arched an eyebrow, counter-asking, "Want to sleep together once?"

Qiao Rui’s heartbeat thundered like drums, yet she tried to calm herself down.

She said, "What if I find out I’m not satisfied after sleeping with you and regret it?"

Pei Liyan raised an eyebrow, "Aren’t you already smitten with me? How could you not be satisfied?"

Qiao Rui spread her hands, saying, "Maybe the technique will satisfy, but not the character—wouldn’t that be even worse?"

Pei Liyan’s brow furrowed slightly, sensing there was more to her words. "So what’s wrong with my character?"

"Taking advantage of someone." Qiao Rui blurted out, "Today I didn’t find my brother, I’m in a bad mood, and here you are kissing me, stirring me up, it’s somewhat like taking advantage."

Pei Liyan was about to speak when Qiao Rui said, "Don’t deny it, you’re exactly doing that."

"Why can’t it be seen as me trying to lift your spirits, sacrificing my own dignity to comfort you?" Pei Liyan arched his eyebrow, counter-questioning.

Qiao Rui’s eyes went wide, her orbs huge with shock as she looked at the man, her clear black and white eyes full of accusation.

Shameless.

How could he speak of such a thing as if it were so noble?

It’s clear he was taking advantage of her vulnerability, yet he made it sound like he was saving the entire galaxy.

"Moreover, you reacted, you can deny it all you want, but your body tells the truth," Pei Liyan said, smiling slightly, his voice exceptionally husky and magnetic.

Qiao Rui was overwhelmed.

She felt even more oxygen-deprived than a moment ago.

She definitely felt something. She wasn’t wood; how could she possibly feel nothing for such a stunning man?

Moreover, they had slept together a few times already; of course, she felt something.

Only having him point it out so bluntly, she still felt a bit ashamed.

Her mind resisted, but her body responded—it really was awkward.

"Do you want to keep playing hard to get?" Pei Liyan whispered into her ear, his voice low and tinged with a hint of aroused sensuality—she almost believed he could seduce at any moment.

"Who’s playing hard to get?" Qiao Rui blushed, lowering her eyes, she said, "Just jumping into bed is what animals do; let’s see where it goes first."

"So, you like things to happen naturally, huh?" Pei Liyan smiled faintly, "That’s fine."

When he said this, it seemed to carry a deeper implication—he had all the patience in the world.

And she, she was now the prey he had set his eyes on.

Qiao Rui certainly wasn’t willing to become prey.

She scoffed lightly and said, "Then would you please show some gentlemanly grace, Mr. Pei, and not just hug and embrace at every turn."

Pei Liyan smiled. "You don’t seem to hate it."

"That’s because you’re too attractive; your beauty has bewitched me, but sensibly speaking, if you had kissed me like that before the family banquet last time, I might have been willing to give it a try tonight, too bad..."

Pei Liyan was teased but didn’t get angry.

He knew Qiao Rui was saying he hadn’t made a move when she was ’ugly,’ and now that she looked good, he was interested—clearly judging by appearances.

"If you can be superficial, how can you blame me for being the same?"

His eloquence left Qiao Rui momentarily speechless.

"Mr. Pei, you really don’t let anything get past you, do you? Always have to argue."

"Women, it’s you who are being insincere."

"Men, your intentions aren’t pure," retorted Qiao Rui naturally.

Pei Liyan smiled again. "Anyway, you promised not to bring up divorce anymore."

Qiao Rui didn’t play coy, "I promised, I won’t bring it up for now; I’m still awaiting the privilege of Mr. Pei’s beauty."

Pei Liyan felt that she was making fun of him.

"Woman, are you flirting with me?"

"No, I’m just teasing you," Qiao Rui lifted her chin to look at the man.

Pei Liyan narrowed his eyes slightly, watching Qiao Rui intently, preparing to lower his head and continue kissing her.

But at that moment, a knock on the door interrupted, the sudden noise breaking the moment’s intimacy.

Qiao Rui pushed him away and took a deep breath to compose herself before opening the door.

There stood Elder Pei at the threshold, looking at the both of them.

He scrutinized Qiao Rui from head to toe; his gaze deepened when he saw her red lips, then shifted back to Pei Liyan.

Pei Liyan greeted him, "Grandfather."

Qiao Rui also came to her senses, "Elder Pei, I’ll go downstairs now, thank you for the old photo."

"No need to rush downstairs; the first room on the third floor is Liyan’s—he occasionally stays here. You should take a look, it’ll be convenient for when you visit in the future," Elder Pei told Qiao Rui.

Qiao Rui, startled, glanced back at Pei Liyan.

He nodded slightly. "Go ahead, I’ll come up to find you later."

With that, Qiao Rui nodded and left.

Upstairs, she opened the door to see the vast room, luxuriously furnished with a walk-in closet and bathroom, with the bed neatly made and spotless.

First, she went to the bathroom, stood in front of the mirror, and startled herself at her reflection.

More than ten minutes had passed.

And yet her lips were still red and slightly swollen.

She reached out to touch them, but it was like she had been pricked, promptly retracting her hand.

Her lips stung, and it felt like the man’s scent was still lingering in her nose and mouth, so severe yet domineering.

Thinking back to that intense yet entwined kiss in Elder Pei’s study, Qiao Rui’s heart still fluttered.

Her first kiss, and her body, had all been given to this man!

The thought made her a bit annoyed and at a loss for words.
