Chapter 175 - Have Your Fill Yet?

********

CHAPTER 175

She watched as his Adam's apple moved up and down with saliva swallowed and from there, Li Jing allowed her gaze lower to his chiselled chest and her cheeks instantly flushed as her mind did her solid by bringing to her memory the image of him standing in a towel.

It was not her turn to gulp as her brain began to marvel at how godlike he was.

Fort some reason she had become too preoccupied with work and the likes of it that she did not even have time to admire him like when she saw him in her home daily.

He seemed to have changed and added weight but in a good way. Now he looked healthy and not sick like before but he was just as handsome as before, if not even more handsome.

"Have your fill yet?" Ye Cheng's voice broke her out of her reverie.

"Damn!" He caught her staring. "What are you trying to say?" she quickly tried to hide it.

"I know you have been staring at me for the last three minutes and a half."

"What? You were keeping a record? But you did not look like your mind was here."

"I do not need to make anything obvious unlike you. It takes some time to be able to control your emotions so you do not look like an open book."

"Duly noted."

"So, have you found what you wanted? What were you searching for in my body?" Li Jing lowered her head at his question.

Just how was he expecting her to answer that question by telling him she was busy admiring him? Nope. Nah-uhh!

"Look at me."

"It was nothing," she answered with her face still being lowered, not daring to look him in the eyes lest he holds her spellbound and leaves her a drooling mess.

"Sigh. Stop being this way. It is only me." He tried his best to coarse her but nothing occurred and he felt it was time he had gone. Without further ado, he stood up from his chair and announce his departure.

"Li Jing, I would be on my way." She did not expect for him to say this all of a sudden and when she raised her head, he was already standing and getting ready to leave.

"Wait but you were…"

She did not even know what she was going to say and just watched him leave. She wanted him to stay so she could spend some more time with him but she did not know how she was going to ask him to stay.

By the time he got to the living room, she knew he wasn't joking and her legs seemed to have surprised her as she found herself rushing forward to meet him.

"Do you really have to go now?"

"Yes. I need to finish up with some business and you seem too flustered to en want to talk with me."

"I…" she was about defending herself but he was okay. He understood her and did not want any explanation whatsoever.

"It is okay. You also need to rest. You really stressed yourself today. I would hate to think you would fall sick because of it."

Even though he was caring, he was also doing this to get his head clear. Even though she was the one watching him, he found himself being drawn to her even more and had his own dilemma as his mind replayed the time he kissed her at the bar.

At that thought, he found out that he yearned to kiss her on her lips and taste how she tasted again.

He quickly tried to control his thoughts but he couldn't as she was gradually harassing him with her eyes and she wasn't helping his condition one bit, that was why he spoke after some time about if she was done staring.

"Alright. Thanks for coming and for the gifts as well."

"No, I should be the one to say thank you for hosting us. Have a pleasant night rest."

"You too." And there came their awkward moment alone. No one knew what to say next and this was not because they had run out of word but they were just too shy to confront these feelings they were having and did not know what to do.

After fighting an internal war for what seemed to be like ages, Ye Cheng's gaze became intense suddenly and lifted her chin with his index finger so she could look at him eyeball to eyeball.

"Be good, okay. If you want to go out, call Hua Duyi or your friend Yin Lifen and is she is not available, Hua Duyi would always be available to take you anywhere."

"Okay."

"I…" Ye Cheng swallowed hard. He did not know what was wrong with him anymore. Why was he suddenly so…

Words could not explain this feeling, he wanted to kiss her and did not know how to fight the feelings that were arising in his mind.

It was as though if he didn't he would not be able to be at rest for the night. He took in a deep breath as his eyes dropped close, trying his best to calm down and when he opened his eyes again, the sight before him only did worse to calm him down.

Li Jing was looking up at him with confused, yet caring soulful light brown eyes that seemed to know all the secrets of the world and what it had to offer in them, giving solitude and inner happiness to the onlooker.

That was all it took and he let himself go and have a taste of what he wanted. He leaned down close, so their faces were only an inch apart as he waited for her to stop him but she didn't.

Apparently, no one stopped and his eyelids closed as their lips finally connected. They both stayed there with Ye Cheng's eyes closed and Li Jing's still wide open as she least expected it even though his face was very close to hers.
