Tangling with the Western Commander - Chapter 301

Chapter 301: Chapter 298: Little Swindler, You Clearly Like It Chapter 301: Chapter 298: Little Swindler, You Clearly Like It She was about to quickly pass by his side.

But the next second, her wrist was suddenly grasped by him, and her body was instantly pulled closer to him by a few inches.

She gasped in surprise.

Lu Xiao stared at her unblinkingly, gripping her fair wrist even tighter.

His warm breath fell, saying, “Acting like a hooligan? Wasn’t it you who signaled me to come find you tonight?”

Once he said that, Wen Xian’s ears instantly turned red with embarrassment.

Her small wrist struggled, refusing to admit, “What nonsense are you talking about? I haven’t forgiven you yet, why would I let you come see me at night? Get out, get out now!”

By the end, she bit her lip, trying to push him away with her wrists.

But her delicate hands pushing him a couple of times didn’t move him an inch; his tall figure stood like a wall, rigidly in place.

The atmosphere became even more delicate, the proximity between them close; she was only wearing a towel, especially from the top-down angle, everything, was in plain sight.

He glanced once, and when he spoke again, his voice was slightly hoarse.

“What if I don’t leave?”

“You–”
She suddenly looked up at him, only to crash into his deep, dark gaze.

Underneath that, there seemed to be the faint flickering of starlight.

Wen Xian’s breathing suddenly became erratic, unable to bear his stare, she moved her gaze away.

Her small fist punched his chest lightly, she bit her lip, her face red as she gritted out three words: “You jerk!”

Lu Xiao stared at her unblinkingly, unfazed: “Yeah, I’m a jerk.”

Watching her cheeks inevitably flush, he slowly said:
“Stop being mad at me, okay?”

Wen Xian looked at him, spitting out two words: “Not okay.”

But just as she spoke, he pinched her jaw and slightly lifted it.

Lu Xiao’s gaze fell on her red lips, his fingertips unconsciously touching them, caressing them.

The pressure increased slowly, he said softly but firmly, “Wen Xian, you know, lying is not good, it makes one want to punish that stubborn little mouth of yours.”

As soon as he said this, Wen Xian immediately covered her mouth with her fair hand, her moist eyes warily watching him.

But unexpectedly,
The next second, he said nothing, only slightly lowering his eyelids, casting a glance at her.

Wen Xian suddenly tensed up completely.

Damn, damn.

He’s gone crazy.

Captain Lu has changed! He’s no longer the pure, ascetic captain she knew!

When Lu Xiao slightly lifted his eyelids again, still saying nothing, just that gaze, as if laced with opium, struck her heart, uncontrollably making her want to sink into it.

It seemed even the upright and stern captain was tainted with worldly desire.

It was too much, too much.

Wen Xian felt like even breathing was becoming difficult, if this continued, she would definitely end up being completely devoured.

She couldn’t just let him off the hook now.

She indeed had given him a hint, but it was just a simple wish to see him.

“I, I don’t understand what you’re saying, stop it, you need to leave now.”

“Liar,”
he said flatly.

“What, what, I’m a liar?”

She was flabbergasted.

Lu Xiao leaned closer, his breath falling on her ear.

His husky voice conveyed, “Do you remember last time… to want is to want, to not want is to not want, what did your words, still wanting, imply?”

As soon as he spoke,
Wen Xian’s eyes widened, her fair skin instantly suffused with a thin blush, making her heart nearly stop.

He said: “You clearly like it, you don’t want me to leave.”
