Chapter 213
The moment his gaze met with Nangong Kou'er's gaze, Jiang Xiu felt his body warm up even more. Nangong Kou'er smiled at this petty, annoying guy who was looking at her rudely. She glared back at him, yet at this moment, she was completely unaware how amorous her expression seemed, her eyes glistening with the waters of spring. This single glance was quite seductive. "What are you looking at.."
"How would you know whether I'm looking at you without you looking back at me?"
Nangong Kou'er couldn't stop herself from laughing, "Na?ve!"
They reached in front of the changing rooms. The left one was for the boys and the right one for the girls. Each of them went ahead to take a bath. Nangong Kou'er started the shower and let the warm hater cleanse her body yet Jiang Xiu's appearance kept flashing through her mind.
The weird feeling in her chest became more intense after recalling how he had evilly attacked those embarrassing locations of her body.
"Why do I recall him right now?"
Her heart skipped a bit while her face was on fire. Nangong Kou'er was frightened by this sensation. She immediately turned the knob towards the cold-water notch to clear her head.
A strange pink tint had appeared on her clean snow-like skin.
Her mind and thoughts became weirder.
"What's happening?"
Nangong Kou'er felt her breathing become hurried as if she was losing control of herself.
She washed up and quickly ran out.
She looked pretty fresh after taking a bath. Her pretty hair hadn't dried yet and stuck to her forehead. Those tender cheeks were thoroughly flushed and lips luscious. She found Jiang Xiu had already come out after going outside, "You're quite fast!"
Jiang Xiu nodded while taking a gulp of water. He felt something wrong with his body as he was taking a bath. His body had become quite warm and felt an urge to release this heat. Especially so when the shower water fell on his body, it stimulated his nerves.
"Where are they?"
"Ought to be in the lobby!"
Jiang Xiu finished the bottle of water and planned to leave by pulling the door, but he discovered that it was locked. He pulled it a few times but it was of no use. "The door isn't opening."
"Let me try.."
Nangong Kou'er came over and along with her came a seductive delicate fragrance. Her damp hair stuck to Jiang Xiu's cheeks.
"Huh. It's really not opening."
Jiang Zhan's voice came through from outside at this moment, "Stop pulling it. The door is locked. Both of you can enjoy a beautiful time inside, okay?"
A man and a woman, locked inside a room. This room was a club-type room which in itself was a bit titillating. The intentions the other side wanted to convey was pretty clear.
"Jiang Zhan. Stop playing around. This matter isn't something you can kid around with."
"I'm not kidding around. Anyway, it's bound to happen sooner or later so it won't matter if it happens in advance. Looks like you still don't know who that guy is? Let me give a grand introduction to you. Kou'er, that guy beside you is the child with whom Grandfather had engaged to you in your childhood, Jiang Xiu."
"WHAT?!"
Nangong Kou'er looked at Jiang Xiu with a stupefied face, "You're Jiang Xiu? Didn't you say you're someone else? Wait, wasn't that fatty Jiang Xiu? Good, really good. You duped me, right?"
Jiang Xiu ignored her and hit the door, saying a cold voice, "Open the door!"
Nangong Kou'er glared at Jiang Xiu. She felt hurt emotionally due to Jiang Xiu. I treated you as a friend, but you actually duped me all the time. She wasn't bothered about being locked in the room right now.
"I believe you aren't a bad person. Since you knew who I was, why didn't you tell me who you were back then? Why did you point towards that fatty to disgust me?"
"Don't say things like that. That kid is quite talented."
Our guy was indeed something.
"So you're saying that I'm in the wrong? That I'm a superficial person, who judges people by their appearance?" Nangong Kou'er was indeed furious this time. She had a good opinion towards Jiang Xiu before, but now, she was really baffled by this person's extreme and barbarian method. She never expected he was such a nasty person.
"I never said that!"
"So you don't think I'm suitable then? You don't like me? This Lady doesn't like you as well." Nangong Kou'er continued, "Our engagement is just a marriage of convenience, our intentions don't matter at all.."
Jiang Xiu could see that she was genuinely furious, so he explained. "I really didn't have such intentions. You're quite pretty and talented with a demonic character and angelic figure.." He carelessly swapped the words but corrected himself immediately, "No, an angelic character and demonic figure."
Nangong Kou'er wasn't pleased by his false praise at all. She had clearly seen through this guy. "That's enough! Shut your mouth, you gigolo!"
"Who are you calling a gigolo?"
Though Nangong Kou'er was angry, she couldn't help but want to laugh out. She had just said it following the flow but wasn't expecting this guy would get hooked on it. She couldn't be blamed for it. "Please don't dishonor gigolos, okay!"
Jiang Xiu made a wry face, "There's no need to mock me so much, right?"
"You deserve it!"
"I have never met such an annoying guy like you."
Jiang Xiu replied, "That, Nangong Kou'er.. Though I was in the wrong here, the reason I had concealed my identity back then was to avoid an awkward situation from arising. Moreover, what I said back then was true. You really don't need to marry. You can marry whoever you like. You can rest assured of this. I promise you that."
Nangong Kou'er looked at him skeptically, "Really? Won't the Jiang family pressure you?"
Jiang Xiu smiled coolly, "Jiang family? Pressure me? They are useless trash."
Nangong Kou'er rolled her eyes. The other side was the Jiang family. Elder Jiang was pretty famous for his craziness. "You can really boast. You say you're quite amazing yet weren't you locked inside this room as well?"
Now that she mentioned this matter, Jiang Xiu indeed felt he was na?ve this time and got caught in their cheap trick.
You think this can stop me?
Just a kick is enough to open this door.
"Hey. Do you feel hot?"
"I feel hot all over."historical
Jiang Xiu's gaze turned fiery as well. At the moment their gazes met each other's, a kind of primal thirst welled up inside them.
It was quite easy for a spark to act as the trigger when a man and woman were enclosed in a sealed space.
Gulp!
It was unclear who gulped first.
Jiang Xiu gazed at Nangong Kou'er face fervently, feeling as if her cheeks had become lovelier. Her eyes grew hazy as well. She felt as if his face was meticulously carved out of marble, looking quite dashing. She subconsciously extended her hand to caress his face.
Jiang Xiu became a little agitated as well, "What's up with you?"
"N-Nothing!"
Why are you caressing my face then? Since you did it, don't blame me for returning it to you. Thereupon, he too extended his hand. Nangong Kou'er almost suffocated due to the nervousness and subconsciously closed her eyes. She felt Jiang Xiu's fingers trace along her face softly. It made her quiver and collapse. Jiang Xiu had already supported her with his hand, parting hair to the side to reveal her face. "I'll tell them to open the door."
"Don't!"
Nangong Kou'er continued, "I-I feel like I'm floating.." Of course, she wasn't floating. She had tip-toed and kissed sealed Jiang Xiu's lips with hers.
Yep, she was acting like an imp, but our Deity Xiu has never feared an imp. Since you kissed me, I'll kiss you back, return it tens and hundreds of times. Our Deity Xiu was always so merciless.
"We can't..!"
"Mhm, nooo!"
You keep saying no but aren't you the one lifting my shirt?
"We can't do this.."
"I'm not such a bad girl.."
Upon meeting under the golden evening winds amidst the autumn dew, they shared an experience no one in the world could ever understand, not even a million words are enough to explain it.
At this moment, Jiang Zhan was listening to the activities happening inside the room. In the beginning, he thought Nangong Kou'er was acting, but later on, he had no choice but to believe everything happening inside was real as it sounded too lifelike. He kept listening in for 30 minutes. If they were faking it, they wouldn't have done it so realistically. He snapped his fingers. "Success. I'm really looking forward to the reward for completing this task."
"A Ferrari should be no problem, right?"
Jiang Zhan left cheerfully to report the success.
Right now, the Elder, as well as the others, were playing nice with the Jiang couple in the manor, but they were actually waiting for the result. When Elder Jiang saw Jiang Zhan return and show an 'OK' gesture, he suddenly burst out in laughter.
Since the rice was already cooked, he wanted to see whether Jiang Yi's family would assume responsibility!
