Once Upon A One Night Stand novel Chapter 293

He swallowed hard and moved his eyes away before he lost control.

Shu Tian could feel his hot breath on her neck as he whispered in her ear with deep emotions in his eyes, "Don't tell me you think I was only being kind when I looked after you during the past three years."

Shu Tian blushed crimson and said in a breathy voice, "I think you were simply helping me."

"I was helping you," the man agreed. For the first time, he allowed his eyes to be colored with palpable possessiveness.

He paused and added, "But that's not all."

Shu Tian was completely lost for words and didn't know where she should look. They were so close that all she could see was the man's perfect face.

He still had a brush cut as he did three years ago. It was a normal haircut but he looked wild and irrepressible with it.

Shu Tian was always aware of his extraordinariness. He had this natural grace that made all the women in the upper-crust circle pine away for him.

He was wealthy, powerful, and also good-looking. No woman would not fall for him. It was just that Shu Tian had met him in such an abnormal way that she forgot the reality.

It didn't make sense that a man like him had devoted so much to her in the past three years just because he was kind.

"I'm a businessman and I'm always calculating what's the best for me. I did that three years ago and I'm still doing it now," he said with a sly smile, "I make quick money sometimes but I also see the bigger picture. It's been more than three years, Shu Tian. You know how I've been treating you. I don't want any return from you but you can't have feelings for any man but me."

He'd never expressed his emotions so frankly. Shu Tian's mind was reeling. She'd been vaguely knowing that she was a bit different to him but when faced with his plain confession, she was at a loss.

Now that he put everything on the table, he must be prepared for what would happen next. He was like a patient predator who approached the lamb meticulously and swallow it whole when it was off guard.

He bent his arms more on either side of the woman to envelope her in his mint-scented smell and asked, "Do you hear me?"

He pressed her to reply.

Shu Tian felt a bit winded and her heartbeat went all haywire. "Meng Shichuan, please don't do this…"

Her eyelashes fluttered uneasily. "I… I never have feelings above gratitude for you…"

"Really?" He asked with a playful smile, "But you need to give it try before you know for sure, don't you?"

"But I..."

Shu Tian was about to refute when the man suddenly dipped his head and kissed her. He'd just come from outside and his lips were still cool. It was a featherlight kiss on the corner of her lips. He didn't go further and was intently observing her reaction.

Shu Tian was caught unawares and her mind went all blank with a boom. She was frozen and before she reacted, the man drew away from her.

"Do you feel disgusted when I kiss you?"

Shu Tian clenched her fists. His voice rang in her head.
