Chapter 1284: “You Rely on Me Because I Like You.”

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Feed Him?

Was that the reason he had demanded her presence? Was he a child? Why did he need to be fed?

Then, it dawned on her. He was punishing her, wasn’t he? He wanted her to suffer on an empty stomach as she was made to feed him till he was full. It was cruelty beyond measure!

“What would you like to eat?” She asked.

“I’d like some water.”

“Okay.” Bai Beibei picked up a cup of water and brought it to his lips.

Gong Yi took a sip, his sword-like brows creasing. “You’re going to scald my tongue like that!”

Was the water really as hot as he made it out to be?

“I’m sorry.” Bai Beibei quickly lowered her head and blew on the water, then brought it to his lips again. “It shouldn’t be too hot, now.”

Gong Yi took another sip and murmured in disdain, “The water’s cold!”

Bai Beibei was certain that he was deliberately making things difficult for her.

She sipped on the water, frowning with an expression of uncertainty. “I think it’s just right.”

Gong Yi glared at her. “Are you talking back, Bai Beibei?”

“No.”

“I think you are.”

“Okay, I am.”

“Bai Beibei, what kind of attitude is this?”

Bai Beibei was speechless. She glowered at him wordlessly.

Gong Yi’s sharp brows furrowed. “Are you mute? Why aren’t you saying anything?”

She remained silent. Nothing she said would satisfy him the way he was now. Her words would only fuel his anger further.

“Young Master Gong, what’s wrong with you today?” She asked seriously.

She actually had the nerve to ask! As if suffering a bellyful of anger, no thanks to Li Xiyang, was not enough.

“I think you know exactly why I’m so angry.”

Bai Beibei tilted her head in confusion. She really didn’t know. Putting down the cup, she said, “Young Master Gong, let me feed you.”

She was brushing him off!

Gong Yi threw the stack of documents onto the floor. It landed with a crisp ‘Pa’ sound. He picked up the cup of water and took a sip but didn’t swallow. Pressing her into the sofa, he forced the rest of the water down her throat, past her cherry-coloured lips.

Bai Beibei was caught off guard and choked on the water. “Cough, cough.”

She coughed so hard that her face turned red, tears streaming from her eyes.

Her small hands balled into fists and hammered him in desperation. “W-what are you doing?”

Gong Yi did not avoid her blows.

Anger had got the better of him. He just wanted to punish her for her arrogance. He did not mean to choke her like this. Immediately, a sense of guilt pinched his heart. Though he wanted to apologize, he could not bring himself to do so.

In the end, he asked stiffly, “Are you okay?”

Bai Beibei’s tears formed crystalline beads over cicada-like eyelashes. With her large eyes that resembled a pair of dark grapes, she spluttered out a question. “What’s wrong with you?”

“I saw you kissing Li Xiyang. Why?”

“What?”

“Do not pretend like you don’t know what I’m talking about. I saw you. You let him kiss your face. Here.” He poked her cheek with his finger. It was soft to the touch. “He even set the photo of him kissing you as his screensaver!”

Bai Beibei recalled the kiss Li Xiyang had snuck in school.

“Why did you let him kiss you? Speak!”

Gong Yi looked like he had been cuckolded. Panicking, Bai Beibei blurted out, “I tried looking for you that day you attended the wedding in Hong Kong. I didn’t have a passport and couldn’t go. Li Xiyang offered to take me there if I let him kiss me. I didn’t agree but he kissed me anyway. He even took a photo of himself kissing me in secret...”

Gong Yi listened in stunned silence. Bai Beibei was referring to Ye Xiaotao and Leng Hao’s wedding. He had flown to Hong Kong with a heavy heart and forgotten all about her.

Li Xiyang had taken advantage of her worry for him...

“Why didn’t you call me?”

“I did but your phone was switched off.”

Gong Yi was rendered speechless. “I’m sorry...”

Bai Beibei swallowed her grievances and whispered, “It’s alright.”

She really was alright. She was the girl he had loved for more than 20 years. She was nothing like that other woman had been.

Gong Yi’s expression softened, pleased by her answer.

Looking at her rosy cheeks and delicate features, Gong Yi traced a finger over the spot where Li Xiyang had kissed her and planted a kiss of his own.

She was his!

Bai Beibei could not help but feel that Gong Yi was a highly temperamental man – more so than any woman she knew. Sometimes, it seemed like he was a child in a man’s body.

Just as he was behaving now.

Her fair little hand pressed against his chest. She wanted to push him away. “Please stop leaning in on me.”

Gong Yi’s waist and abdomen went numb as he felt her wriggling like a snake beneath him.

He was still angry with the way she had tickled him so mercilessly the previous night.

“Bai Beibei, don’t move. I’m warning you! I don’t think you want me to finish what we started last night!” He threatened in a low voice.

She had lain with him twice before so she knew what he was referring to.

How could he...

Bai Beibei did not understand how he could threaten her with that every time they disagreed on anything.

Were all men like this?

“You...” she stared at him with wide, panic-stricken eyes that teared up at the edges.

Gong Yi was not one to be outdone. If she was going to guilt-trip him then he would do the same. Two could play at that game. “Bai Beibei, don’t play coy. I’m not dumb. You’ve known that I’ve had my eye on you for some time. How else would you have had the courage to seduce me, otherwise? Don’t give me that look. I can see right through it!”

Bai Beibei...

She was struck dumb by his reasoning. It sounded ridiculous even in her own ears. Was this how Gong Yi’s mind worked? Bai Beibei stopped herself from pursuing that train of thought.

“Are you like this with all women?” She stammered.

Gong Yi wished he could split her head open to see what was inside. Was her head stuffed with straw? Why was she asking him such an unintelligent question?

“No. Men only do this to the women they like. Are you satisfied with this answer?” He quirked an eyebrow as he answered, his face an empty mask.

Men only did what they did to women they liked...

Bai Beibei’s head exploded with a ‘Bang’. What... what did he say? Did he... did he mean that he liked her?

Was he confessing to her now?

Bai Beibei’s heart instantly sped up as if it was about to jump out of her throat. She tried to push him away, avoiding the aggression swimming in the lines of his body. “Don’t joke around...”

“Bai Beibei.” Gong Yi reached out his fingers and grabbed her delicate chin, forcing her to look at him, “There’s nothing going on between Li Sisi and me. I’ve already cleared the air with my father. Don’t let your imagination run wild. If you have any doubts, come and ask me yourself. Don’t scorn me for the mistakes of others!”

“I-I didn’t...”

“There’s no need for you to deny the truth. My father’s behaviour created a misunderstanding which made you distance yourself from me. You even enacted a tragic show of self-sacrifice last night. Please stop bullying me like this when you know I care for you.”

That was why he told her to stop playing dumb.

He really couldn’t understand. He was brilliant, in more ways than one, so why was he always bullied when came it came to matters involving love? He could not understand.

Ye Xiaotao was a bully. Now, even this white little rabbit underneath him was doing the same.
