For the sake of safety, it’s best to hold back for now.
Her eyes locked onto his rebellious stance, frowned slightly, and then a calm voice slowly emerged: "If you can’t do it, start eating takeout from tomorrow morning."
The mention of takeout was simply An Nan’s Achilles’ heel. Furious, she glared at him, but under his indifferent gaze, she finally deflated and drooped her shoulders.
Then she intentionally avoided looking at him, turned around, and left with a body full of rage. As soon as she turned, the deflated demeanor vanished without a trace. It’s okay, she told herself internally, losing the TV wasn’t a big deal, she still had her phone. She could watch TV on her phone in her room.
After taking just a few steps, the gentle male voice sounded again: "Leave the phone."
The gleeful expression on An Nan’s face froze instantly, then twisted. Unable to contain her anger, she spun around and shouted at Lin Mubai, "Lin Mubai, you bastard!"
As if the shouting wasn’t enough, she stepped forward and, catching Lin Mubai off guard, reached out to pull his head into her arms, and without hesitation, bit down on his slender, fair neck.
Lin Mubai immediately felt a sharp pain in his neck, but he didn’t resist. He just let her bite him.
An Nan only let go when she tasted blood. Thɪs chapter is updated by novel★fire.net
Releasing Lin Mubai, An Nan’s gaze flitted around, avoiding eye contact.
The man in front of her touched his neck where he was bitten with one hand, looking nonchalantly at the woman in front of him, and plainly said, "Have you vented enough?"
That serene demeanor gave an illusion, as if it wasn’t him who just got bitten.
An Nan hesitated too, surprised at the trace of guilt that vanished quickly when she looked into his eyes, then she tossed her head, turned arrogantly, and left.
Behind her, Lin Mubai’s calm eyes revealed a hint of fondness, and he promptly turned back to his room.
That night, whether truly tired or not, An Nan, who usually wouldn’t sleep before one at night, dozed off by ten, and even in her sleep, she felt a warm sensation on her lips.
In the bathroom, Lin Mubai looked at his bitten neck in the mirror’s reflection, the clear bite marks surrounded by bruising were evident, it wasn’t hard to imagine how hard that little woman bit him. Does she really hate him so much?
Lin Mubai’s bright eyes suddenly dimmed, followed by a sheepish smile.
His pale fingers continued to rub the bitten area, muttering to himself, "Turns out a pushed little white rabbit will bite too."
Since the night An Nan bit Lin Mubai, she was particularly obedient over the next few days when there were no flight tasks. She seldom ate snacks and went to bed on time.
Gradually, An Nan noticed that going to bed and waking up early was actually quite nice; at least she felt noticeably more energized.
In such circumstances, she naturally couldn’t help but want to thank Lin Mubai, yet the words ’thank you’ just couldn’t come out.
That afternoon, An Nan got a call from Xi Shaoqi after waking from her nap.
"Nannan, you promised to have dinner with me last time, but where are you?"
