Chapter 206: Hard to back down 1

"Cold Bodyguard, I’m sleepy!" After watching a batch of television, Li Mengjie, this little girl, started to get drowsy.

"If you’re sleepy, then go to bed," Leng Xuan said with a helpless smile.

"I’ll just sleep here; lend me your shoulder to rest on!" she declared and, without waiting for Leng Xuan’s agreement, she leaned her head on his shoulder, closed her eyes, and pretended to fall asleep instantly. Still, there was a mischievous smile at the corner of her mouth.

Leng Xuan really felt baffled—was she trying to seduce him?

Glancing over at Li Mengjie, he noticed the playful smirk on her lips and that her eyes weren’t fully closed, clearly not the look of someone actually asleep. Unable to resist teasing her, he deliberately moved his face closer to hers.

"Hmm?" Li Mengjie indeed hadn’t fully closed her eyes. Seeing Leng Xuan drawing near, she thought he was about to kiss her. Her face turned crimson with shyness, and her little heart began to wildly flutter. She widened her eyes in embarrassment and said, "Cold Bodyguard, what, what are you doing?"

With a smile, Leng Xuan extended his hand, found a strand of hair on Li Mengjie’s nose, and removed it. He blew gently, and the hair fluttered to the ground. Then he said in a serious tone, "I wasn’t doing anything. I just saw a hair on your face and wanted to help you get rid of it. Hm? Why is your face so red?"

Li Mengjie felt a twinge of regret inside and laughed sheepishly, "Oh! So that’s it. I’m drunk, so it’s natural for my face to be red. Didn’t you know?"

"Is that so?" Leng Xuan said with a laugh, "I thought you were blushing."

"Me, blush?" Li Mengjie asked in puzzlement, "What would I be blushing about?"

Leng Xuan chuckled, "Didn’t you just think I was about to kiss you?"

Li Mengjie, her secret guessed, blushed even deeper, and giggled, "Heh, not at all. You wouldn’t dare, so why should I be afraid?"

"I wouldn’t dare?" Leng Xuan was indeed exasperated. Initially, he only wanted to tease Li Mengjie since the girl always had him watching cartoons with her, which he found utterly excessive. But now, being slighted like this was really frustrating. It felt like she didn’t see him as a man at all, daring to say he didn’t have the nerve. He then said, "Do you really think so?"

Li Mengjie felt a little scared by the way Leng Xuan looked at her, but she maintained her smile and replied, "Yeah, do you?"

With a mischievous grin, Leng Xuan said, "Why wouldn’t I? I’ll kiss you right now." Saying this, he cradled Li Mengjie’s cheeks with his hands—which felt incredibly soft and smooth—and leaned in before she could react.

Li Mengjie, tense, gripped the couch tightly, but she was still unwilling to back down. Her eyes held a smile as she looked at Leng Xuan as if to say ’Hmph, don’t think you can scare me!’

When Leng Xuan’s lips were less than an inch away from her delicate little mouth, Li Mengjie could feel the warmth of his breath. Her heart almost leaped to her throat and she involuntarily closed her eyes. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly—she was undeniably charming!

Seeing this, Leng Xuan hesitated. This girl was really standing her ground against him, but backing out now would give her a chance to mock his manhood later.

With that thought, he felt trapped between a rock and a hard place!
