There went the dominant tone again.
Bai Rong’s eyes widened in shock. She got to her feet immediately and said awkwardly, “Isn’t this room for me?”
“Mhmm.” He mumbled back at her coldly, “You’ll sleep on the bed. I’ll sleep on the sofa.”
How could a lone man and woman stay in the same room? She hadn’t even done that with Su Xuyan before. Her face quickly burned in a crimson red and spoke in a confused voice, “Eh? We are just boyfriend and girlfriend. We don’t need to stay in the same room.”
Finished speaking, Gu Mingchen stared at her, and started walking towards her.
Although she was not his subordinate nor was she a soldier, his overwhelming aura still sent a shiver down her spine.
She took a step back and fell onto the sofa.
Gu Mingchen leaned in with his hands pinning on the sofa, surrounding her with his arms.
As his cold gaze was fixated on her, she could feel a strong sense of oppression even though he didn’t speak.
“What’s wrong?” Panic flashed across her eyes.
“Do I look like a monster or something? Why do you have to act so evasively with me?” He asked.
“I didn’t mean it that way!” Bai Rong quickly explained, “It’s just that…”
Just that he was a high-ranked official while she was a married woman. They were two strangers who had nothing in common. It was indeed inappropriate for them to stay in the same room
But that did sound distrustful.
So instead of continuing her speech, she said, “I’ll take the sofa.”
Hearing her reply, his gaze turned gentle as he said, “This is the last room, so please bear with it. Don’t worry, I won’t lay a finger on you. You take the bed, and I’ll take the sofa.” Not giving her a chance to speak, he took his steps to the bathroom.
Of course she trusted him.
If he wanted to touch her, he would’ve done so yesterday.
However, he probably wouldn’t be interested in someone like her.
Looking at the man’s back view, only then did she remember that her clothes were still hanging in the bathroom. “Wait!”
He gave her an ambiguous look and asked, “Why? You want to join me?”
She was surprised that a gentleman like himself was capable of saying something so indecent and felt flustered as she walked towards him, “No way! I just have some things inside. Let me tidy it up before you enter.”
Gu Mingchen did not object and just stood there looking at her.
Bai Rong hurriedly put her clothes away. She had forgotten that the disposable slippers were very slippery especially when it came into contact with water.
“Aaah!” She let out a cry as she slipped.
He rushed in as fast as lightning and caught her by the arm, pulling her into his embrace.
But her towel fell off from the huge motion, and he accidentally grabbed hold of her boobs.
Gu Mingchen felt his body burning up as he looked at her. She felt tender and smooth to the touch, just like three years ago.
Bai Rong felt so awkward that she couldn’t even speak. Her face was beet red from embarrassment.
“I’m… I’m sorry…” Bai Rong mumbled.
She quickly picked up the towel and wrapped it around her as soon as Gu Mingchen let go of her.
