Chapter 627: Chapter 626: Giving out Candies_1 Chapter 627: Chapter 626: Giving out Candies_1 Try laughing again, I dare you.
Heeding the warning from a certain someone, Si Limo stifled his laughter and stretched out his hand to wipe off a small blob of white flour on her face. The pair of deep, inky eyes right in front of hers seemed to carry the warmth of a setting sun, promising to warm up her entire heart.
“Alright, let’s cook together today.”
“Mm.” Qiao Xiaren gave a soft laugh. “Considering the hardship you’re going through this month, I’ll indulge you by making a meal.”
Si Limo reached out to grip her shoulders, turning her around to instruct her on cutting vegetables.
his warm body curled around hers from behind, holding her hand firmly. Qiao Xiaren held the handle of the knife, slowly cutting the vegetables.
After a few cuts, Qiao Xiaren got the hang of it. Seeing that he was still holding her hand, she nudged him with an elbow, “Okay, I’ve got it. I don’t need you to teach me.”
The man behind her didn’t budge, quickly getting rid of a mischievous smile on his lips — a sight unseen by Qiao Xiaren.
“You still need my guidance.”
His breath suddenly pervaded her ears. The originally heartwarming picture suddenly became much more ambiguous. Si Limo felt the person in his arms tensing up, seemingly uneasy.
“Baby, you should cut it .”
“Are you courting death?!” The queen suddenly blew up, playfully jabbing him with an elbow. “Behave yourself, or be ready to suffer the consequences!”
“Alright, as you wish.”
Of course, Si Limo wasn’t about to behave. At this moment, his mind seemed to be controlled by her, leaving nothing but raging hormones. He released her hand, his hand reaching down her waist and caressing it lightly.
The two were extremely close, the friction conveying an unfamiliar sensation. The scent of the man lingered breathlessly, and it felt as if he was holding her waist in his hands.
A light peck landed on her cheek, then moved downwards, as he whispered into her ears, “You chop your veggies, I won’t disturb you.”
She wants to play games, huh?
Qiao Xiaren felt that the one who should feel the burn of this flirtation should be the instigator. She pushed away the chopping knife, turning her head to plant a fierce, passionate kiss on him.
It was a feeling of both ice and fire. There was a moment when Qiao Xiaren really didn’t want to consider anything else.
Si Limo abruptly lifted his head, his expression both playful and serious. “Shall we continue chopping vegetables?”
Her breath was in disarray.
Her thoughts, unsettled.
She wasn’t the only one feeling it. Seeing him maintaining a seemingly calm demeanor, Qiao Xiaren raised her eyebrows in question, uncertain of his intentions.
Is he trying to make me concede first?
Qiao Xiaren quickly regained her composure, focusing on chopping the vegetables in her hands. Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Si Limo pouring a glass of red wine. The sight of the wine flowing into the tall glass was strangely enticing.
He elegantly lifted his hand, taking a small sip. His eyes intently focused on the woman before him, making Qiao Xiaren slightly uneasy.
What’s up with him today?
Si Limo took a few steps forward, his distinctively knuckled hand reaching out offering her a sip. The sight of her lipstick mark on the glass caused his deep eyes to swirl with hidden emotions, his calm facade instantly shattered.
“Is the wine good?” He asked, taking a sip of the red wine himself lingering on her lipstick mark, creating an ambiance that felt like they were still kissing.
