Chapter 398: Chapter 398: Don’t Flirt with Me, My Willpower Isn’t That Strong Chapter 398: Chapter 398: Don’t Flirt with Me, My Willpower Isn’t That Strong Sheng Chuyi’s breath hitched, and his gaze on her turned noticeably fiery.
Shen Zhaozhao felt extremely uncomfortable under his burning stare. The courage she had mustered just moments ago popped like a bubble with a soft “pop” and she quickly diverted her gaze, saying, “Um, I was just asking randomly. Pretend you didn’t hear it, let’s start reviewing now!”
Sheng Chuyi let out a wry smile and said, “Shen Zhaozhao, don’t casually flirt with me next time. I don’t have that strong a willpower!”
The girl he liked was standing in front of him in her pajamas–God knows how much self-control he needed to keep himself calm.
Yet this girl kept provoking him again and again.
“I–I know!” Shen Zhaozhao’s ears blazed, and she spoke quickly, looking down.
However, less than a minute passed before she lifted her head again. “Actually, you don’t really have to hold back. I mean, we are already engaged, so it’s quite normal if something happens…”
“Anyway, you know what I mean.” Shen Zhaozhao’s words became more and more muddled, and finally, she was almost incoherent.
He understood, but he still wanted to save the best for the most appropriate moment.
Sheng Chuyi looked at her with a complex expression and said, “Shen Zhaozhao, don’t rush. We have our whole lives ahead of us.”
“Who–Who said I’m rushing? I’m just worried there might be something wrong with your health,” Zhaozhao, who had mustered great courage to say those words, explained, even though she, a bold girl, couldn’t appear too forward in this matter.
His words made it seem as though she was impatient for something to happen.
In her frustration, Shen Zhaozhao couldn’t help spilling her true thoughts.
Sheng Chuyi’s expression stiffened, and then with a somewhat amused look, he looked at her meaningfully and said, “Don’t worry, I am very healthy!”
“That–that’s good!” Shen Zhaozhao, realizing her error, couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty.
But what was said was said, and regretting it wouldn’t help.
So she boldly met his eyes and said, “With medical science so advanced these days, I mean, just in case you have some problem, we shouldn’t avoid doctors.”
Sheng Chuyi laughed, irritated, amusingly realizing that the girl still suspected he had some physical issue.
“What, do you want me to prove it to you personally?” As a guy, having one’s physical abilities doubted is not something any man can remain calm about.
“No need!” Shen Zhaozhao quickly shook her head and said, “I believe you!”
Sheng Chuyi wasn’t ready to let it go just like that, unwilling to let her harbor any more messy thoughts.
Sheng Chuyi decided it was necessary to make things clear to her.
Shen Zhaozhao immediately nodded like a pecking chicken.
“I believe, I really do!”
At that moment, she wished she could simply seal her mouth shut.
It was her fault for speaking without thinking.
“Alright, then let’s continue reading!”
Luckily, Sheng Chuyi didn’t continue to tease her, and they each picked up a book and focused on their own reading.
But Shen Zhaozhao’s heart wasn’t settled, and after only reading two lines, she couldn’t help but lift her head and steal a glance at him again.
But Sheng Chuyi caught her in the act.
Looking at her resignedly, he said, “Since you don’t feel like reading, how about we do something else?”
Before Shen Zhaozhao could react, he grabbed her wrist, pulled her over, and she found herself sitting on his lap.
Sheng Chuyi wrapped his arms around her waist, lowered his head, and slowly leaned closer.
Shen Zhaozhao’s breathing became rapid…
