Ye Nanqing neither dodged nor avoided, letting Ji Fuling bite his lips.

A faint smell of blood instantly filled their mouths.

Ji Fuling was stunned for a moment, then quickly released her teeth from his lip.

The resentment that had been building up inside her vanished completely when she saw the trace of blood on his lips.

Seeing that she had vented enough, Ye Nanqing kissed her lips again.

Another passionate, deep kiss...

Only when he felt the woman beneath him struggling to breathe did Ye Nanqing reluctantly stop. He ran his fingertip across his lips, wiping away the blood, and said hoarsely, "Are you satisfied now? Then we're even?"

Ji Fuling: "..."

What the heck?

These are clearly two different things, how can you force a settlement like this?!

The two consecutive kisses softened Ye Nanqing's usual cold expression slightly, and a hint of desire crept into his deep black eyes.

Seeing her remain silent, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a hoarse voice, "What? Still not satisfied?"

Ji Fuling's gaze swept over his bitten lip.

Catching her gaze, a subtle emotion flashed in Ye Nanqing's eyes. "You don't still want to bite me, do you?"

Getting bitten and bleeding is a minor issue.

The problem was that her bite made him feel hot all over, as if all his blood was rushing to one place.

Ji Fuling scoffed, "Didn't you say before that if I got angry, I could hit you or bite you? Does that mean you don't keep your word?"

Ye Nanqing glanced at her face, which was flushed and made her even more charming, and her lips, which were slightly swollen from being kissed, were also glistening.

His throat suddenly felt dry and hoarse, and his Adam's apple involuntarily moved.

When he spoke again, his voice was extremely hoarse, "I did say that, so you can bite however you want, wherever you want..."

As they spoke, Ye Nanqing's large hand reached directly inside her clothes.

Ji Fuling froze, her mind going blank for a moment.

It wasn't until her clothes were pulled back and a chill ran through her that she snapped out of her daze, frantically grabbing the man's large, groping hands. "No... I'm not ready..."

Even though the matter of being scammed has been put behind her, she's not ready to fully commit herself to anyone...

Ye Nanqing glanced at the resistance on her face, suppressing the rising heat within him, and said softly, "Okay, I'll wait until you feel it's okay."

"But now, let me kiss you a little longer."

Ji Fuling paused for a moment, then raised her hand to press against his chest, turning her head away, "No, I'm a little tired..."

Ye Nanqing restrained her hands, leaned down close to her, and kissed her. At the same time, his deep, husky voice escaped from their lips, "Be good, don't refuse, I miss you so much."

"Mmm..."

The words Ji Fuling was about to say were all silenced by the man's kiss, leaving only a muffled moan.

Soon, she was kissed until she was dizzy and disoriented, as if her consciousness had been pulled away.

Finally, whether from exhaustion or lack of oxygen, she somehow drifted off to sleep...

It was late at night, and Ye Nanqing leaned against the bed, his gaze fixed on the spot beside him.

The woman who had just been kissed by him until she was moaning and begging for mercy was now fast asleep.

She turned her face to the side, having just turned her back to him a few minutes earlier, as if she didn't want to face him.

This reminded him of the scene outside her company where she angrily said she didn't want to see him.

She probably thought she was fierce and tough at the time, but in his eyes, it seemed like she was being coquettish.

Ye Nanqing unconsciously curled his lips into a smile. As he turned off the light and lay down, he reached out and pulled the woman, who was facing away from him, towards him.

The person he had been thinking about for a week was finally in his arms...

Early the next morning.

Ji Fuling, half asleep, was having a dream.

In her dream, she clung to a man, holding him tightly and refusing to let go. The warmth and sense of security he provided made her feel at ease and comfortable, and she even didn't want to wake up.

By now, the sun was shining brightly outside.

Sunlight streamed in through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the man on the bed instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes from the glaring light.

When he opened his eyes and looked down, he found that the woman who had been nestled in his arms was now clinging to him like a koala, her arms tightly wrapped around him and her whole body hanging on him.

Seeing the woman's sleeping posture, Ye Nanqing chuckled softly, wrapped his large hand around her waist, and helped her slowly sit up.

I kissed her all over last night, which finally eased the longing that had been building up since we separated.

Sensing the movement, Ji Fuling, who was half asleep, slowly opened her eyes.

Her face was pressed against the man's chest, which was warm and cozy.

Startled for a moment, Ji Fuling suddenly realized that what she had dreamed about was actually happening.

She was lying on top of the man, her arms wrapped around his strong waist...

This awkward posture caused her cheeks to turn bright red instantly.

Ye Nanqing leaned lazily against the headboard, leisurely glancing at the woman who had tilted her head back in his arms. A slight smile played on his lips. "Awake?"

Ji Fuling blushed and blinked, "Sorry, I'm a restless sleeper..."

As she spoke, she began to roll off the man.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she moved, her lower back was firmly pressed down by the man's large hand, and her face was lifted up by him at the same time.

The next second, cool, thin lips covered hers, lingering and kissing her passionately.

Ji Fuling's heart suddenly raced. Before she could refuse, the man kissed her until she was dizzy and weak as he held her in his arms.

She felt something suddenly pressing against her between her legs, and as if she had been electrocuted, her body trembled uncontrollably...

The man released her just as she was about to run out of breath.

She was breathing heavily, her face flushed as if it could bleed.

"That's not enough?"

Seeing that she looked like she couldn't breathe, Ye Nanqing reached out and pinched her flushed cheeks, his voice husky and suggestive, "Your body is too weak, you need to nourish yourself properly, so that every time I kiss you I don't fall asleep like last night."

Moreover, this was just a kiss. Given her delicate nature, he was afraid she wouldn't be able to handle it if things went any further.

Ji Fuling bit her lip and glared at him resentfully, "How dare you say that? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be like this!"

After saying that, she placed her hands on Ye Nanqing's chest and tried to get up, her body still weak.

Ye Nanqing held her waist, preventing her from pulling away, his dark eyes gazing at her with a half-smile, "Are you blaming me for not being a good kisser? How about I let you do it next time?"

Ji Fuling: "..."

She suddenly remembered that last time she took the initiative, thinking that a kiss would be the end, but in the end, this man still held her down and kissed her to his heart's content.

At the time, he even went so far as to claim that he was teaching her how to kiss...

"Knock knock—"

The sudden knocking on the door pulled Ji Fuling back to reality.

She nudged the man who was still holding her, "Someone's coming, let go of me."

Ye Nanqing then released her and casually pulled the blanket over her.

As he got up to open the door, a hint of displeasure flashed across his cold, stern eyes.

Who's blind fool who had to come and bother us at this time!
