Chapter 275: Chapter 280: Want to Marry and Take Home
“I won’t get down!” Sheng Ning decisively wrapped her arms around his neck and said proudly, “Do you want to punish me harshly? Now’s your chance!”
Xu Qigang gritted his teeth and said, “Do you… do you know what you’re saying?”
“I know!” She nodded with a smile, “But I’m only saying this to you, and I won’t say it to any other man in this lifetime.” She liked him and was determined that he was the only man for her in this lifetime. Was it wrong to show her affection now?
She had always been bold in love and hate, heedless of everything else.
Xu Qigang’s usually hard heart instantly softened. He had already been unable to bear seeing her fall, and now he was even more careful with her, holding her as if she were a precious treasure in the palm of his hand.
He cradled her head with one hand, his male breath getting closer and closer.
Sheng Ning’s heart pounded nervously, and she dared not open her eyes even though they were shut. Although she could boldly flirt with him and challenge his limits, that didn’t mean she wasn’t nervous.
This was the Living Yama! Not just any other man.
In his previous life, he had never had a woman, and was the coldest man. Being with him made every cell in her body seem to sing and joyfully dance.
She knew he was a serious and reserved person, and hoping for him to take the initiative was impossible if they wanted any progress in their relationship.
Xu Qigang’s breath grew closer and closer, and Sheng Ning’s heartbeat grew louder and louder. The dim moonlight shone on them, the man imposing and the woman stunningly beautiful.
Soon, Xu Qigang came to his senses, and there was a moment of stiffness in his embrace. Like being burned, he immediately let go of her and clumsily adjusted her clothes.
“I’m… I’m sorry!” He uneasily shifted his gaze away but couldn’t help taking several lingering looks.
Sheng Ning felt completely weakened and couldn’t stand on her own when Xu Qigang put her down; she nearly fell over.
Luckily, Xu Qigang reacted quickly and steadied her in time.
Sheng Ning covered her face, feeling utterly embarrassed! She was so pathetic! Seeing him made her act so unlike herself. This must be how a woman behaves in front of the man she loves!
She couldn’t help herself, body and soul.
“Are you alright?” Xu Qigang’s voice was incredibly hoarse.
“I am not alright!” Sheng Ning acted petulantly, “Of course, something’s wrong.” She was feeling light-headed and dizzy now.
“I have something too!” Surprisingly, he gazed at the moon and sighed, “When can I marry you?” Once they were married, he could kiss her however he wanted, hold her however he wanted. He wouldn’t have to restrain himself like now.
And he was afraid of scaring her!
He looked at her seriously and surprisingly nodded in agreement, “You’re right, you’re a dancer and now is not the time to marry.” She was so talented and had many admirers; he shouldn’t clip her wings.
“Xiao Ning!” He called out her name softly, “Don’t worry, I won’t pressure you.”
“…” She suddenly felt like she was being unreasonable. He had thought everything through for her, with such patience and concession, yet she still liked to deliberately provoke him.
She really was terrible.
“Actually… it’s not that.” She wished she could marry him tomorrow!
“I can wait!” Even if it meant waiting a lifetime, he was willing.
