"Be my woman, okay?"
Bo Jinchuan rubbed the tip of her nose lightly, his voice low and sexy.
"Bo Jinchuan…"
"Yes?"
"I'm hungry."
"You're avoiding my question."
Shen Fanxing nodded and said, "Yes, I feel like I'm being too presumptuous by agreeing to it so quickly."
Upon hearing this, Bo Jinchuan's lips curled upward as he said, "You're indeed good at torturing me. But… can I accept this as a form of disguised agreement?"
Shen Fanxing grinned shyly as well. Her flushed face was relaxed.
"I didn't agree. It doesn't matter if you think that way. However, I'm feeling groggy now. I might wake up tomorrow and forget what happened tonight."
Bo Jinchuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Should I do more to help you remember tonight vividly? I've taken advantage of you more than once anyway."
Embarrassment flashed across Shen Fanxing's eyes as she muttered, "No… I'm still sick!"
Bo Jinchuan bent his head and buried his face in her neck.
With his warm lips on her skin, a numb sensation caused Shen Fanxing to stiffen and tremble slightly.
"No… Bo Jinchuan! Ahhh…"
Shen Fanxing exclaimed in panic.
There was a sharp pain on her collarbones and Bo Jinchuan released her, looking nonchalant. His eyes were fixated on her face.
"Evidence."
He sounded casual and gleeful.
"You can't deny it."
Shen Fanxing heaved a sigh of relief and said, "But I really didn't agree…"
Bo Jinchuan stood up and cut her off, "Don't worry, I have faith in my comprehension skills. I've already gotten the conclusion from your response. You have agreed."
"Don't you think your courtship is too short? I have yet to properly experience the taste of being wooed…"
"It's alright, I'll let you experience it every day."
Shen Fanxing paused before saying with a grin. "Alright then… Remember this, holding hands, hugging and kissing are not within the scope of courtship."
Bo Jinchuan snorted coldly as he said, "That's impossible!"
Shen Fanxing stared at him helplessly for several seconds before sleepiness washed over her.
She must have expended a lot of energy just now!
Noticing that, Bo Jinchuan bent down to pull her up from the covers. He then adjust her position so that she could sit up.
"Hold on, don't sleep first. Eat something before you sleep."
Shen Fanxing looked at him and nodded lightly.
"I'll get food for you."
Bo Jinchuan retracted the teasing in his voice he had used earlier. When he spoke again, his voice was gentle but stern.
Shen Fanxing's heart warmed as she watched the towering figure leave the room.
She closed her eyes slowly to rest.
She had made a bet with herself just now…
—
It wasn't long before Bo Jinchuan returned with a tray of plain porridge and two dishes. He waited and watched Shen Fanxing as she finish the food.
After that, she drank the medicine that he had brought before lying down again.
"Go to sleep."
Shen Fanxing forced her eyes open to look at him silently.
"Don't worry, I'll leave once you're asleep."
Shen Fanxing didn't have the energy to bother about Bo Jinchuan's feelings. After hearing his promise, she closed her eyes.
As she fell into a deep sleep, she felt a softness between her eyebrows. She caught a whiff of that familiar scent and breath, as it lingered in her nose and finally enveloping her.
She felt more at ease than ever.
—
Bo Jinchuan left the room after she fell asleep.
Standing outside the door, his phone rang yet again.
The call went through and Yin Ruijue's desperate and urgent voice sounded from the other end.
"Hello, Brother Bo! Where are you now? We've been waiting for you at Green Jade Club for the whole night!"
