Chapter 403: He is Here
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
No matter how cautious Ji Nuan was, he still caught hold of her waist easily. He pressed closely in an ambiguous posture, his cold eyes watching her meaningfully.
Ji Nuan knitted her brows: “Let go!”
“It’s wet and slippery by the poolside. I was worried that Miss Ji would accidentally slip and fall down. It would be too much of a shame if those beautiful legs were harmed.” Xiao Luye did not let go of her waist and continued pressing his face closer. Although his invasive gaze caused one to feel hatred, it still hid a calculative intent that made her uncomfortable.
Ji Nuan’s expression was filled with resistance and disgust. “Even if you want to tease a woman, you have to be aware of who the other party is. I’m not someone you can tease as you please.”
Lu Xiaoye was mindless of the warning and threat in her words. As though intentionally, he shifted closer to her neck and took a deep breath in. He could smell the natural, cool fragrance on her body and narrowed his eyes, saying, “Although you’re a replacement rabbit, your scent isn’t so bad. It isn’t that different from Shi Niange’s. Rather, it seems that you each have your own merit and your own charm.”
Ji Nuan’s waist was held and restrained by his arm. Although they were separated by the layers of towel and swimsuit fabric, it felt as though a cold, venomous snake was clinging onto her. She felt a chill through her body.
The scent of the man’s body was not offensive. It was the faint fragrance of cigarettes; she had no mood to figure out what the rest of the scent was. She raised her head with an unhappy expression and lifted her arms to keep their bodies apart: “Let go!”
Xiao Luye held onto her waist without letting go. “Since you completely don’t matter to Mo Jingshen any longer, why don’t you follow me. Miss Ji is known as the first warmth in Hai City. If you were to go look for other men, I doubt there’ll be anyone who could match up to you.”
“And you think you can?” Ji Nuan coldly retorted. She kept her hands against Xiao Luye’s chest and did not budge.
“You would know the answer if we tried, wouldn’t you?” Xiao Luye raised his brows. The curve on his lips deepened as he leaned close to Ji Nuan’s ear to say: “Has Miss Ji never heard of the Xiao family? When it comes to power and ability, the Xiao and Mo family are indistinguishable. The reason we’ve never entered the four great families in Hai City is that the Xiao family lives on the periphery of Hai City and not within it. I can give you everything Mo Jingshen can give you. Since he doesn’t know how to protect a precious jade, why don’t you just follow me? Perhaps you’ll be able to fly away from this cage.”
Ji Nuan sneered. “Fly away from this cage and into another? I’m afraid that for a mentally perverse man like CEO Xiao, only those with Stockholm syndrome will take a liking to you.”
Xiao Luye was mindless of her resistance. He tightened his arm around her waist and abruptly pressed her into his embrace. His hand held the back of her waist as he leaned down to breath in the cool fragrance from her neck. The scent caused one’s heart to lighten.
Ji Nuan frantically tried to resist him, pushing against him with both her palms.
Amidst their struggle, they did not hear the sound of a car approaching from outside.
“Why do you smell so good?” Xiao Luye held Ji Nuan and had already pressed close to her neck. He firmly held onto her waist and did not allow her to back away.
Ji Nuan felt goosebumps covering her entire body. She raised her leg and was about to deliver a good kick to his lower body to force him away.
Abruptly, a familiar, clear voice rang by the villa entrance: “CEO Xiao, you’ve touched what you shouldn’t have. Have you made the preparation for both of your hands to be amputated?”
That tone was low, unhurried, and heavy. Deep, murderous intent seemed to appear in those words gradually—
