Chapter 368: Chapter 368 Good Night, Gu Annan (6) Chapter 368: Chapter 368 Good Night, Gu Annan (6) “Mm… I know, tomorrow I will look at Mr. Arthur’s and your previous proposal… He was unexpectedly tied up and is no longer involved… No problem, I will return to the company tomorrow…”
Gu Annan’s voice was particularly pleasant to hear, low and clear, such that even when he was discussing dry and tedious work matters, one couldn’t help but become captivated.
Lu Wanwan sat beside him, feeling the warmth emanating from him.
She felt a bit dizzy, and she didn’t know if it was because she was too close to him, the crisp breath entering slowly but steadily, yet it made her especially comfortable.
Whether or not he glanced at the phone for the meal orders as he was on the call, she didn’t know, nor did she notice when he reached out to pull her into his embrace.
It wasn’t until she heard Gu Annan’s last sentence, “….All right, that’s settled. I’ll take care of the other matters when I return tomorrow.” and he hung up and turned off the phone that she realized she was comfortably leaning against him without knowing when it happened.
He tossed his phone aside, his arm still around her not loosening, and with his other hand, he grabbed her phone, which she had been holding for quite some time, and tossed it aside as well.
By the time Lu Wanwan reacted, she had already been scooped into the blankets with him, pinned beneath him.
Their warm bodies pressed tightly together, their fingers interlocked forcefully.
“I told you to find something suitable, are you dressed on purpose?”
A forceful tone came from his body as the man stared at her unwaveringly, more directly and sharply than before, as if he could see through her heart with just one look.
Recalling the clothes she had seen when rifling through the closet, Lu Wanwan felt a bit aggrieved, “I didn’t find anything else suitable.”
He pursed his lips, his gaze falling upon her disheveled black hair and the glimpse of porcelain-like skin beneath. He supported the back of her head with one hand and leaned down to kiss her.
He didn’t feel like quibbling over such matters with her, admitting his own lack of preparation.
After nearly a week without a word from Gu Annan, she was quickly moved by his kiss, her heart racing uncontrollably.
That dizzying, intoxicating feeling intensified with his deepening kisses, her unease like floating in mid-air, causing her to instinctively hold him tight.
Her brain, robbed of rationality, drowned without self-restraint; her uneven breathing, the whimper in her nose…
Gu Annan suddenly stopped, that very sound having stoked a near-burning temptation.
“Sleep,” he said, his voice fraught with headache as he pinched her face lightly, shifting his posture to hold her securely.
Lu Wanwan was taken aback, to be honest, she hadn’t expected it.
She hadn’t expected he would actually…
Blinking, the proximity between them too close, she felt her eyelashes seemed to brush against his chest.
A sudden jolt in his chest coincided with his low voice, perhaps explaining, “I haven’t slept for nearly thirty hours…”
Lu Wanwan’s face flushed, she hurriedly said, “Then you should sleep.”
No wonder he had only kissed her just now, but restrained himself from going further.
He hadn’t slept for nearly thirty hours because he was busy with work before coming back?
Suddenly, a kiss was pressed onto her forehead, and he made no further movements.
Lu Wanwan abruptly remembered the reason she had come in with her phone and opened her eyes.
She lifted her head, uttering just one syllable before falling silent.
The man’s breathing was even; he had already fallen asleep.
The weariness on his face relaxed in sleep, and after a moment’s thought, she also leaned in and lightly kissed his chin.
