Chapter 608: 594, New Year Gift (1)_1 Chapter 608: 594, New Year Gift (1)_1 Black Jack nodded, the dark color in his eyes becoming deeper and more inscrutable, “Are you not satisfied with this New Year’s gift, hmm?”
Jian Luo shifted her stiff body, cursing in her heart. With his devouring gaze on her, could she even say she wasn’t satisfied?
“If you don’t speak, I’ll take it as consent.” His voice was somewhat hoarse, sounding deeper and more pleasant.
Jian Luo dodged his gaze and pushed him slightly, but he didn’t budge.
“I’m satisfied, I’m satisfied. Okay then, hurry back to your room now.”
“Flippant.” Black Jack hummed discontentedly.
“You accepted my gift, so where’s mine?” He pressed her step by step, demanding his gift.
“I…”
Facing his deep blue eyes, Jian Luo lost her courage to speak.
“I didn’t have time to prepare, can I give it to you later?”
His eyebrows arched, “Later?”
“Mmhm.” Jian Luo looked at him eagerly, nodding vigorously.
After a moment of contemplation, he said slowly, “No.”
Jian Luo’s handsome face darkened, resisting the urge to curse out loud.
Damn it, she shouldn’t have waited for him.
Now she was stuck with all this trouble.
“You’ve said that line a hundred times, but I never saw you making up for the gift,” Black Jack said unhurriedly.
Truth be told, she owed him quite a few gifts.
Hearing this, Jian Luo was unhappy and refuted him immediately, “Who said that? Didn’t I make up for the gift last year and you’re lying through your teeth.”
“Yeah, on my birthday, you cooked me a meal. As a result, I got food poisoning and was sent to the hospital. Others eat cake on their birthdays, but I was on an IV drip eating tablets. Now that’s a memory.” Black Jack looked at him disdainfully. “Luo Xiaobai, do you really think that counts as a gift?”
Feeling guilty, Jian Luo lowered her head and muttered, “I didn’t do it on purpose.”
It was her first time cooking, she deserved some credit for successfully making a meal, he was just too picky.
“How about this, let me pick my New Year gift myself?” Black Jack grinned.
“You’ll pick?”
“You just need to deliver it.”
Jian Luo intuitively felt something was wrong, and asked tentatively, “What are you going to pick?”
Black Jack arched his eyebrows slightly and looked at her with depth, “As far as the horizon, yet right in front of your eyes. What do you think?”
“Um…”
Jian Luo’s lips trembled slightly.
How was she supposed to answer that?
“If you don’t speak, I’ll take it as consent. Default is agreement, right?” Not giving her a chance to think, Black Jack pressed her relentlessly.
Jian Luo gave him a glare, “Where did you get these crooked ideas from?”
“So then, what’s your answer?”
“No answer.” Facing his deep blue eyes, Jian Luo sighed, “I can’t solve this.”
Seeing her getting all huffy, Black Jack chuckled lightly, the next second, his voice filled with resentment, “Luo Xiaobai, its New Year’s and you haven’t prepared any gifts for me. Don’t you feel embarrassed?”
Jian Luo’s face flushed hard. Lowering her head, she was torn inside.
After what seemed like an eternity, there was the slightest perceptible nod of her head.
Black Jack’s blue eyes brightened, he stretched his arm, and pulled her to his chest.
The night was still young, this New Year’s Eve was destined to be unforgettable.
The next morning, when Black Jack woke up, he saw the person beside him, the corners of his mouth carrying a satisfied smile.
Jian Luo’s eyelashes fluttered and when she opened her eyes, his handsome face seemed to collide abruptly with hers, leaving her dazed. A flush gradually filled her face.
She pulled the blanket over her head, her eyes spinning rapidly.
She was done for.
Did they really… last night…
Oh my God, how did she fall for his trap?
It was such a critical mistake to make.
Watching the person hiding beneath the covers like an ostrich, Black Jack realized she was embarrassed, the gleam in his eyes deepened.
He tried to yank the blanket away but the person underneath fiercely pulled it back, stubbornly keeping her head covered.
“Luo Xiaobai, you seem to be pretty energetic.” Black Jack joked nonchalantly, “At the headquarters’ training, you were the weakest among the four of us, who would have thought…”
Even without completing the sentence, Jian Luo knew he was teasing her.
This damn jerk.
