Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Secrets (1)

The BMW pulled up downstairs.

Xiao Yebai drove it himself and stopped the car.

As Gu Nuan was unbuckling her seatbelt to get out, a shadow suddenly fell beside her. She couldn’t dodge in time, and the warmth of his body hit her directly, making her hair stand on end.

Turning her head, she met his eyes that squinted like those of an old cat.

He said to her, "It seems you weren’t ready."

Gu Nuan took a moment to understand the implications of his words.

His fingers, trying gently to push back the bangs on her forehead, said, "If you can’t even handle this little action, taking you to my place would totally blow our cover, let alone make that mother and son jump into a river."

If Wa Zicong knew that she was only pretending with this man, and everything was fake, what would Wa Zicong think?

Gu Nuan gave a sidelong glance to the man beside her, "You don’t need to tell me that, I already know. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have avoided him today, because it wasn’t the right time."

"We need to spend more time together." He smiled at her, leaned back in the driver’s seat, and his gaze returned to a languid flavor.

Gu Nuan was ready to get out of the car, no longer wanting to continue the banter.

Seeing how eagerly she opened the car door, he said again, "What’s this? You’re going like this just after what was said?"

"What do you want?" Gu Nuan turned back to him again.

His fingers, raised, suddenly touched his cheek, "Mrs. Xiao, isn’t it customary to give your husband a kiss when parting?"

He probably thought this move would shock her into jumping like a grasshopper, just like that night. Thus, the corners of his mouth lifted mischievously, as if waiting to see the spectacle of her reaction.

But suddenly, her face leaned closer.

Closer and closer, straight up to his face, forcing his mocking eyes to shrink a little to cope, with a flicker of being caught off guard.

Suddenly, her lips touched his, as chiseled and cutting as his lips were.

The mere brush, however fleeting, was enough to send an electric current rushing through both of them. At that moment, she took a breath, and he did likewise.

Xiao Yebai suddenly felt a heat rising up, which made him lower his head, wanting to take a closer look at the woman before him.

This woman, who seemed plain, handicapped, and unattractive.

He knew that before, when women suddenly approached to kiss him like this, he would disgustedly push them away before they could succeed. His excessive fastidiousness made him almost wish he could sever his lips that seemed about to be tainted.

The Fastidious King, that was what his buddies knew as his little secret.

Yet now, this kiss he had initiated himself, possibly initially thinking as a joke she would never actually do, did not disgust him on reflection.

Not disgusting.

Never had been.

As he thought this, Gu Nuan’s eyes, which had just lifted, shot right onto his face.

Xiao Yebai, out of nowhere, suddenly straightened his back.

Her gaze, always so sharp and suddenly powerful like the previous times, was capable of making people feel embarrassed.

"It seems Mr. Xiao also wasn’t ready."

Xiao Yebai suddenly realized, his own face seemed a bit heated, especially where she had touched.

Damn!

Across from him, her voice continued calmly like a teacher: "Kids shouldn’t make such jokes when they can’t handle it, you know?"
