Chapter 196: Chapter 216: Don’t Ask, Don’t Even Think About It! _1

Lin Chen blinked, not knowing how to answer for a moment.

Is this even a question to ask?

As a normal, healthy young man, sharing a room and even a bed with a young woman who has both a good figure and pretty face, yet not engaging in any intimate contact. Can you say he’s not distressed?

Lin Chen touched his nose: "Why are you suddenly asking this? It’s kind of awkward."

Chu Jiaxue’s face also reddened, but since she had asked, she wanted to know the answer: "I’m just curious. Sometimes I think about this question too, but I’m not a man, so I can’t understand a man’s feelings."

The atmosphere in the room seemed to become ambiguous all of a sudden. After all, the relationship between the two was close, but they had not yet crossed the boundary of physical contact.

Lin Chen replied more tactfully: "No offense, but living with a beautiful woman like you who has a great figure can be quite torturous. Sometimes it is indeed very agonizing..."

Chu Jiaxue felt a strange sense of happiness in her heart. So, he wasn’t as calm and composed as he appeared on the surface. He was also distressed and tormented.

It seems that I still have charm.

Many images appeared in Chu Jiaxue’s head. She actually wanted to ask Lin Chen how he coped, but she was too embarrassed to ask further as the answer seemed not too difficult to guess.

Lin Chen looked at the surprise in Chu Jiaxue’s eyes and felt a bit puzzled. However, after a moment’s thought, he could guess Chu Jiaxue’s girly thoughts at this moment.

Women, if you get too close to them, they will think you are up to no good and label you as a rascal. But if you ignore them and keep a distance from beginning to end, they will doubt their own charm.

Lin Chen couldn’t help but smile, as it seemed even a goddess couldn’t avoid this fate.

Chu Jiaxue glared at Lin Chen, a mix of embarrassment and anger: "What are you laughing at?"

Lin Chen chuckled: "Don’t doubt your charm. I’m just acting calm so you won’t call me a rascal."

Chu Jiaxue couldn’t help but recall the scene when they first met, her mood becoming quite delicate, and snorted: "You are a rascal!"

Lin Chen lay down comfortably on the bed: "If I were really a rascal, you would have been pregnant by now. After all, we are legally married, and even if grandfather found out, only you would be scolded..."

Chu Jiaxue couldn’t argue, because what Lin Chen said was the truth.

Although she and Lin Chen had set some ground rules, if Lin Chen were to turn unscrupulous and break his promises after marriage, she would have no choice but to accept it. In such a situation, no one would stand on her side.

"Alright alright, you are a good man, not a rascal, okay?"

Lin Chen, having won the argument, laughed and turned to look at Chu Jiaxue: "You just asked me a question, now I want to ask you one, is that okay?"

Chu Jiaxue immediately became nervous, staring warily at Lin Chen: "What do you want to ask?"

Lin Chen chuckled: "Just to discuss... You haven’t had a man, have you?"

Chu Jiaxue’s face grew even redder, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed, and even a little ashamed, gritting her teeth: "Yes, you can laugh if you want."

Lin Chen waved his hand: "No laughing, no laughing. Ordinary people can’t do it, which shows you have a good character."

Chu Jiaxue stared at Lin Chen: "Is that all you’re asking?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "No, all I wanted to ask is, everyone has normal desires and emotions. Although you deliberately reject love due to hatred, you still have emotional and physical needs, don’t you? How do you cope..."

Before Lin Chen could finish speaking, Chu Jiaxue’s face had already turned as red as fire. Angrily, she grabbed the pillow beside her and threw it at Lin Chen: "Don’t you dare ask or think about it!"

Lin Chen laughed, dodging the pillow that was thrown at him: "You just asked too, didn’t you? Can you say you haven’t thought about it?"

As Lin Chen said this, Chu Jiaxue felt greatly embarrassed. With the pillow in her hand, she repeatedly hit Lin Chen: "Stop talking!"

Lin Chen grabbed the pillow that was hitting him and laughed: "Allowing officials to set fire but not the common people to light a lamp is a double standard."

Chu Jiaxue was waving the pillow with all her might. Caught off guard, she stumbled and fell, with a scream, directly into Lin Chen’s embrace.

Chu Jiaxue held still.

Lin Chen’s raised hand also held still.

From the time they first met to now, the two, although living under the same roof, had been respectful of each other and never crossed any lines. Now, the sudden embrace was the first time they had intimate physical contact.

The ambiguous atmosphere in the room instantly intensified.

Both of them were wearing thin bathrobes, pressing their bodies tightly together. They could feel each other’s heartbeat, and it even seemed as if they could sense each other’s body.

Lin Chen’s hand dropped to Chu Jiaxue’s back, and his eyes seemed to flicker with firelight...
