The distance closed between them. Mu Xichen stared at her, his eyes deep like the ocean, as he unhurriedly said, “I have no desire for those, I desire only you.”

  He spoke softly but slowly, and he couldn’t be more serious.

  As he spoke, he moved closer.

  Li Beinian leaned back slightly, but even then the distance between them did not widen. In fact, it narrowed.

  He continued as he eyed her steadily, “Now that we’re married, from this point on, whatever belongs to me, belongs to you too. And whatever belongs to you, is still yours to keep.”

  His gaze seared into her as their hot breaths mingled and their breathing became shallow.

  Li Beinian felt her body tensing up, and her long eyelashes fluttered. She raised a hand and placed it on his chest so that he would come no closer, then said in a small voice, “You’re…… too close……”

  An amused twinkle flashed in Mu Xichen’s calm and quiet eyes. He asked, “What’s this shyness about.”

  He lowered his head to kiss her lightly on the lips and continued, “We’ve been a lot closer than this.”

  There was a subtle dullness in his voice as the atmosphere in the car became suggestive.

  A lot closer than this……

  A deep red flush appeared on her face. She shrank back in an attempt to dodge him, but instead, he held the back of her head and locked his lips on hers.

  \r \r \r

  Then, parting her lips with his, he deepened the kiss, delicately savoring it slowly and gently.

  Her palm, which was still placed against his chest, detected distinctly the powerful beating of his heart.

  She could clearly feel his breath, his heartbeat, his warmth.

  This was reality.

  And it sent waves reverberating through her heart. She raised her face towards him, responding unhurriedly, with tenderness.

  Mu Xichen paused for a moment. He suddenly opened his eyes.

  He realized that Li Beinian, who had her eyes shut, was returning his affections with equal passion and enthusiasm.

  It got him worked up at once, and his heart started racing.

  Satisfied yet hungering for more, he circled his arm around her waist, sweeping her up in a wave of ecstasy.

  He seemed stirred.

  Li Beinian clearly felt it, for his heart rate had suddenly increased significantly.

  She smiled unconsciously as her heart overflowed. Her hand slowly moved away from his chest, and she slipped both her arms around his neck.

  As though responding to an invitation, his restless hands caressed her womanly softness.

  Her heightened sensitivity caused her to quiver. Immediately, she stopped him and pushed his face away in protest.

  Mu Xichen released her. His face was now slightly flushed and no longer calm and collected like the usual. He was also somewhat out of breath.

  She saw that there was a smudge of her lipstick next to his lips.

  She felt her face heating up as she reached out to remove the mark.

  The man’s eyes darkened, and he immediately reached out to hold her velvety hand.

  Startled, she said, “We’re in the car, don’t try anything funny!”

  Having calmed down significantly, he smiled as he reached over for some paper napkins. He commented, “Your lipstick has smudged.”

  He then cleaned the sides of her lips with them.

  Li Beinian did not speak.

  In return, she also drew out two pieces of paper napkins and tried to clean off the smudges around his lips.

  However, as they were doing this, she suddenly realized something. She asked, “Did you say that you got Gu Mingye to move the belongings in Qing Shui Fu over?”

  “Un-huh.”

  “Well, then, did you tidy up the bed?”

  The bed they had frolicked in last night!

  Mu Xichen did not wear any protection, and the bed was a mess.

  Not only that, but there was also blood……

  When she recalled the scene of the night before, she started to feel the throbbing pain again. Embarrassed, she quickly said, “That mess…… if someone sees it……”

  It would simply be too shameful!
