Chapter 72 A Beast in Human Clothing
Su Wanwan has always been quite adept at attracting attention.
In other words, she's not very good at understanding love and romance.
Su Wanwan leaned over to take a look. "Hmm... I don't quite remember the name. It was probably a social gathering back then."
As soon as she said it, Su Wanwan realized she had said the wrong thing and quickly tried to salvage the situation: "My roommates dragged me there. They said it would make me look more prestigious, but I was only responsible for eating and drinking. I should at least fit in, right?"
"Hmm," Xie Yanning responded, her expression revealing nothing of her thoughts.
"No, you'd rather look at this photo than look at me?" Su Wanwan asked.
Looking at her is better than looking at photos!
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room changed instantly.
Xie Yanning put down the photo album, her gaze towards her unfathomable.
Su Wanwan had just finished showering; her hair was still slightly damp, with a few strands clinging to her cheeks. Her complexion was fair with a rosy glow, and her eyes were misty with tears.
Su Wanwan's most attractive feature was her red lips, naturally red without any makeup, and now they were even more luscious and tempting to be plucked.
A silk slip dress, revealing a slender neck and a glimpse of skin in the front.
"Hmm, it's up to you." Xie Yanning's voice was hoarse.
"I..." Su Wanwan's heart was beating fast. She felt her lips were a little dry and gently licked them.
...
When Su Wanwan woke up the next day, she felt pain all over her body.
The culprit was still holding her tightly.
She felt a hoarseness in her throat from shouting last night.
Anyway, the sobbing turned into cursing, and the way she addressed Xie Yanning changed from Professor Xie to bastard, to beast, until she was hoarse and exhausted.
Their gaze shifted to Xie Yanning's face.
His breathing was still deep and even, and he had some bluish stubble around his lips, but his brows and eyes were more relaxed.
It feels a bit prickly to the touch.
"What a hypocrite," Su Wanwan muttered under her breath.
Su Wanwan was still a little angry, and as if venting her anger, she bit Xie Yanning's shoulder.
Xie Yanning was awakened by the pain in his shoulder. Ignoring the pain, he hugged the other person even tighter and asked knowingly, "What did I do to upset you so early in the morning, my ancestor?"
"Don't you feel guilty saying that?" Su Wanwan asked.
They worship their ancestors, but he's different.
Hearing her hoarse voice, Xie Yanning said, "Let me pour you a glass of water."
He threw back the covers and got out of bed without any hesitation.
Su Wanwan: "..."
No, is it really that unrestrained?
Also, are those scratches on her back really her doing? Her nails need trimming.
However, Xie Yanning quickly put on a bathrobe, covering up her exposed skin.
Su Wanwan still felt a little regretful.
Broad shoulders and a narrow waist—a classic inverted triangle body shape.
As if noticing her gaze, Xie Yanning smiled and said, "Don't worry, they're all yours."
Su Wanwan retorted stubbornly, "Who cares?"
"I really want it, I'm begging you, please?" Xie Yanning smiled, gave her water to drink, and tidied her hair before asking, "Are you alright?"
"Don't you think it's a little too late for you to ask now?"
Ha, men, they really do take things for granted once they get them.
Xie Yanning sincerely apologized: "I'm sorry, I was a bit too hasty," then changed the subject, "but I'll listen to you, otherwise it would be a waste for you to call me a beast."
Su Wanwan's eyes widened slowly, in disbelief.
"How come I never realized you were so shameless?"
"Yeah, it's a bit late to realize it now." Xie Yanning even nodded with a sheepish grin.
"Can I regret it now?" Su Wan said irritably while drinking water, not noticing that Xie Yanning's expression changed for a moment before returning to normal. "No, you can't start something and then abandon it. Don't say things like that."
Su Wanwan handed him the cup, pulled the blanket over herself, and said angrily, "What else can I do? I'm already on this sinking ship."
Xie Yanning pulled her into his arms, "Dr. Su, please be understanding of how many years I've been widowed."
Su Wanwan was still indignant. Was she the only one who wasn't single?
She poked his chest. "You're mine now, so you have to be obedient and virtuous from now on, understand?"
The chest muscles feel pretty good.
My hand unconsciously went to my abs again.
Xie Yanning swallowed silently and pressed her hand down. "Don't touch it, or your throat will hurt again."
Shouting, or something else.
Recalling last night, Su Wanwan's face turned bright red.
"You really should let your students see what kind of person Professor Xie, whom they respect, truly is." How can someone be so shameless!
Xie Yanning smiled and said, "Then you might be disappointed. They will never see it in their entire lives, only you will. Talk is cheap, and Dr. Su may never be able to uncover my true colors."
"..." Su Wanwan accepted it.
Xie Yanning was like a seal that had been broken.
Before this, he would at most kiss and hug, and he was very restrained in everything. Now, he's become a rogue.
Su Wanwan was heartbroken.
She ruined a virtuous man.
Circumstances dictate that Su Wanwan was forced to withdraw her hand, though she was reluctant.
"Alright, it's no use regretting it now. Just accept your fate. I'll go to the kitchen to make breakfast. You tidy up and come out."
The only thing Xie Yanning hasn't changed is that he always thinks about what to feed Su Wanwan.
Make sure to eat well at all three meals.
Seeing that the person didn't move, he asked, "Do you want me to help you?"
Su Wanwan hugged herself tightly. "No need, thank you."
Xie Yanning was in a good mood, her brows were relaxed, and she exuded an air of satisfaction. "Soon."
The aunt had already prepared things in the refrigerator.
Xie Yanning did some simple things.
For the sake of the seafood noodles, Su Wanwan decided to let it go.
She was still a bit tired after consuming chlorhexidine last night. After eating something, Su Wanwan climbed back into bed for a nap.
Xie Yanning kissed her forehead. "You take a rest. I'll go take care of some work."
Su Wanwan was a little sleepy, and nodded vaguely before falling asleep.
I didn't wake up again until almost noon.
The phone rang at that moment.
It was her friends who invited her out.
I really can't stand seeing her idle.
This time, someone organized a trip, saying they had just bought a yacht and were going to go out to sea for fun.
They also invite some celebrities and such.
Su Wanwan: No, I'm going with my boyfriend.
I just don't want to move.
Meng Ningyan thought, "Great! My boyfriend's here. Shouldn't I meet him? Let him see the difference between us."
People from two different worlds should not be forced to merge; it will only lead to unhappiness.
Meng Ningyan: You really are keeping a mistress! Hurry up, I'll see you tonight.
Su Wanwan: It really won't work. He has a meeting tomorrow and can't miss it.
Meng Ningyan pursed her lips, wanting to say that the important people at the meeting were the keynote speakers, not the nobody.
Even if I don't attend, no one will care.
