1470 Felt Every Ounce Of Strength Depleted From Her
Ji’er moved her hand away from him and stared at him with pursed lips. “I’m being serious, Lil Qi. You’re the only one for me in this life…”
An alarm bell rang inside Chu Qi’s head. Just as he had feared, Ji’er had taken a step forward and was reaching out to hold him by the shoulders.
He was completely flustered. “Ji’er, stop it…”
Ji’er ignored him and gave him a determined look. She stood on tip-toes and her rosy lips leaned in close to him.
Chu Qi was shocked and furious. Beads of sweat began forming on his head. He quickly tried to gather his internal strength to deactivate the pressure point that immobilized him.
However, it was too late. Ji’er’s soft lips, sweet as flowers, pressed onto his.
Boom!
Chu Qi’s mind went blank. He was dumbstruck.
It took an instant for his handsome face to turn completely pale. His dark eyes stared straight at her.
Ji’er smiled with self-deprecation when she saw his reaction.
She wanted to give him a deeper kiss, but this was her first time and she had no experience, which was why she was unable to be as bold as she wanted to be.
In fact, her heart beat wildly and she was so nervous that her heart was almost jumping out of her chest.
“I’ve kissed you, Lil Qi. Now you have to marry me,” she was being assertive about this as she made the unreasonable declaration.
The kiss she gave him took every piece of courage she had in her.
Her hands and feet were still trembling at that point.
However, Lil Qi seemed to feel repulsed by her kiss.
No matter what, such a reaction was a huge blow to a girl.
Ji’er was no exception.
She felt every ounce of strength being depleted from her.
Ji’er had even planned to take things further if one kiss was not enough.
It would be just like the novel Yaoyao had let her read—she would proceed with the scheme of entrapment.
However, when she met the dead, hollow look in Lil Qi’s eyes, all of her plans were instantly put on hold and she found it hard to continue.
Lil Qi’s detest for her was too unbearable.
It pained Lil Qi to see tears forming in the girl’s eyes. He shut his eyes and tried his best to sound cold and distant. “It’s late now, Ji’er. You should go home.”
Ji’er lowered her head. Her long, pretty eyelashes fluttered gently like the wings of a butterfly. She knew that her brazen move tonight had frightened Lil Qi.
Would he leave if she went home now?
She did not want to wait another five years for him. She did not even want to wait a year, not even half a month.
Ji’er did not want to be separated from him.
She touched her belt with her fingers and gave this some thought. She decided to give it her all. Ji’er clenched her teeth and pulled her belt off.
After that, she lifted her head and looked stubbornly at him. “No, I’m not going back…”
Chu Qi’s eyes widened and rage crossed his face. His voice was chilling to the bone. “Ji’er, you have truly disappointed me by not cherishing your own body!”
Ji’er’s body stiffened and she stopped short of throwing herself into his arms. Tears began to fall from her pretty eyes as she gave him a pained look.
Chu Qi looked coldly at her, as if he was staring at a stranger.
A teardrop fell from Ji’er’s cheek. All of her gathered courage had been crushed by one sentence from Chu Qi, and she could no longer continue with her plan.
Just as she was feeling hurt and heartbroken, she felt a jab of pain in her shoulder and she found herself unable to move.
Realization dawned upon her as her eyes widened. She looked at Chu Qi in shock. “You’ve overcome your pressure point?”
Chu Qi gave her a complicated look and said nothing. His slender fingers quickly pulled her unfastened dress back together and he picked up her belt from the floor to tie it back on.
After that, he returned to the side of the bed and drew a blanket over Ji’er.
Once she was completely wrapped up, he carried her in his arms. “I’m taking you home.” His voice was icy cold.
