Chapter 422: Chapter 416: I Really Hope You’d Sit On Top

Xie Baola almost died of fury.

She took a deep breath and let it out, managing to restrain her fierce temper.

"Why would I chase you so long if not for that? Do you think I have nothing better to do? I, Xie Baola, have never chased any man before."

But Chen Jiayan seemed to laugh, "Hmm, it’s just that other men chase you."

Xie Baola choked, "It’s normal for beautiful women to be pursued by men, right? Not to mention Xixi, any girl who looks decent will have suitors!"

Chen Jiayan spoke slowly, "Seems like there’s some truth to that."

That light and breezy tone...

Xie Baola urged herself to stay calm.

She reminded herself that this was the man she had fallen for, and she had to be patient, get him first before taking it out on him.

Get him first then give him a good time.

A gorgeous smile crept across Xie Baola’s lips as she said unhurriedly, "The moment I saw you, I felt something, and when you went to Xixi’s place to pick things up, I pretended not to know you and waited for you at her home. If I hadn’t been concerned that you were Xixi’s brother, I would have made my move on you long ago.

As you see, after not seeing you, I tried to let go of my feelings, and if I hadn’t run into you at Holy Mountain by chance, I wouldn’t have known that after all this time, I still can’t stop thinking about you. See, this is the fate between us."

Xie Baola unbuckled her seatbelt and leaned toward him.

Chen Jiayan’s peripheral vision caught her movement, his temples pulsating, "What are you doing?"

Xie Baola braced both hands on the armrest, her upper body arched, her foxy eyes staring intently at his face, her warm breath sprinkling on his skin, "Can’t you just directly say you feel something for me? Is admitting you’re smitten that hard?"

Chen Jiayan’s hand gripping the steering wheel suddenly trembled, almost causing the wheel to swerve.

The woman was so close, her gaze alluring like a vixen.

Chen Jiayan decided to park the car at the roadside.

He turned to look at Xie Baola with an expressionless face that was even colder and more serious.

She lifted her chin arrogantly.

Xie Baola hooked a finger in his collar, her eyelids drooping, her gaze falling on his collarbone. She slowly raised her eyes, the teasing vixen’s gaze revealing a smile.

The atmosphere suddenly became charged with ambiguity.

Her voice playful and low as if laced with seduction, "Isn’t it nice to enjoy the moment? Why worry about the distant future? No one knows what each day will bring. Why not just enjoy the present? Chen Jiayan, let’s try dating, shall we? I’ll always like you."

Chen Jiayan’s heart involuntarily fluttered.

It was as if the fortress he had built inside was beginning to crack with her repeated assaults.

The comfort zone he created for himself was also collapsing due to her intrusion.

Chen Jiayan closed his eyes briefly, pushing down the emotions in his gaze.

Just as her hands started to slip into his collar, Chen Jiayan grabbed her wrists.

Xie Baola smiled fearlessly at him.

"You don’t dare to try?"

The atmosphere hung tense for half a minute.

Their eyes locked, with electric currents seemingly flashing between them.

She really wasn’t afraid at all.

Chen Jiayan suddenly let out a cold laugh, "Once we start, don’t even think about escaping."

A cunning light flashed in Xie Baola’s eyes, her voice playful, "Escape what? Wouldn’t that make my chase pointless?"

Chen Jiayan looked down, "First, sit back down properly."

"No, you have to promise me first."

"Are you threatening me?"

"You can think of it as a threat if you like, or you can drive off without me. I’m not afraid."

Chen Jiayan firmly pushed her back into her seat.

Xie Baola’s back hit the seat.

She blinked, then burst into a grin, "Strong arms, but I wonder if you’re also strong elsewhere."

Her words carried a suggestive undertone.

Chen Jiayan suppressed the urge within him, "... Buckle up your seatbelt."

"No."

Xie Baola’s lips curled up.

Chen Jiayan could only lean over to fasten her seatbelt.

Taking the opportunity, Xie Baola planted a quick kiss on his face.

Chen Jiayan: "..."

Xie Baola laughed triumphantly, "Hey, I’ll take that as a yes."

Chen Jiayan didn’t respond to her statement.

The car reached the foot of his apartment building, and he got out.

Xie Baola followed suit.

He personally opened the driver’s door, "Get in, I’ll follow behind and drive you home."

Xie Baola stood still, "Now that I’m your girlfriend, what’s wrong with staying over at your place?"

"No."

Xie Baola’s eyes darkened, "What, you hiding another woman at home?"

Chen Jiayan took out a cigarette and lit it. As he exhaled a smoke ring, he narrowed his eyes slightly, "Wouldn’t you know if I were hiding someone?"

After all, she had been up there yesterday; there were no traces of any woman in his place.

A man who kept himself clean.

"If there are no secrets, then let me go up."

Chen Jiayan was amused by her persistence, "You’re that eager to visit my place?"

"Mhmm!"

Xie Baola responded emphatically.

Wasn’t her intention already clear?

Her goal was to win him over.

So, why put her through the redundant test of where she should stay?

Chen Jiayan bit the cigarette filter, his lips twitching into an ambiguous smile.

The typically refined and aloof man now had a hint of roguishness.

Xie Baola suddenly had a strong urge to kiss him.

She walked up to him, grasped his coat, lifted her eyelids, and under the dim streetlight looked at him, "Chen Jiayan, from the moment I saw you, I’ve been wanting to strip off your clothes."

...

Qiao Xi picked a fine day to move everything from Sheng Birch Mansion to Four Seasons Cloud Top.

It took another two days to arrange everything, and her new home finally started to feel like a home.

After adding some green plants and flowerpots, Qiao Xi planned to invite friends over for dinner.

She and Shen Dang went to the mall together to shop for groceries.

It was the first time they had gone shopping together.

Shen Dang pushed the shopping cart with his left hand while holding her with his right.

Qiao Xi looked at the array of items on the shelves and said to Shen Dang, "We should buy more meat, and we can’t forget vegetables; Tutu especially likes greens, and Baola’s fruit salad is a must—we need to prepare it all."

"Do you remember what they like to eat? Do you know what I like?"

There was a hint of jealousy in his tone.

Qiao Xi glanced at him, "You’re picky with food, not everything is to your taste, but if it doesn’t taste good, you won’t eat it, right?"

How could Qiao Xi not understand him?

If he weren’t so discerning, he wouldn’t have opened Tan Garden.

Shen Dang’s gaze darkened, and he chuckled lightly, "Am I that picky in your eyes?"

Qiao Xi clicked her tongue, "Do I even need to say whether you are picky or not?"

Shen Dang: "..."

Shen Dang cleverly changed the subject, "Do you want to hop in?"

He nodded towards the shopping cart, suggesting Qiao Xi to sit in it.

He had seen a young couple ahead, where the girl sat inside the cart while the boy pushed.

Qiao Xi’s expression was subtle, "No, I’m not a little girl, plus I don’t want to end up in the news."

Shen Dang seemed somewhat disappointed, "I was quite hoping you’d get in."

He may have wanted her to, but she didn’t.

"If you want to sit, you get in. I’ll push you, how about that?"
