521 Jealous Of Ying Jie?

Even if Darren couldn't see her face, he was certain she was lying. To some extent she indeed was lying. The past always brought some unpleasant memories and she couldn't help feeling down. It was inevitable. She couldn't just pretend like it never happened.

But she was not lying that it could only shake her. She had experienced it herself. From the time she saw Liu Nuan or Zhou Jinhai, both only came as a surprise to her. She didn't feel anything prickling her heart. And talking or thinking about Han Bohai could only bring a smile to her face. 

Also, she knew the reason why Liu Nuan's face or Zhou Jinhai's presence didn't hurt was this man right before her. Darren had given her everything she lacked previously. Attention, care, tenderness, kindness, time, trust, and most importantly love. The things that can hurt us are the things we lack or can't achieve, but Xiu already felt like her life was complete with Darren's presence. And it was honestly enough to her.

Even when Darren knew she was lying, he didn't comment. Instead, he questioned, "If you're done with your Q\u0026A session, can you free me now?"

Xiu scratched her head as she said, "I think I had something else to ask as well. I can't remember what it was. Argh! How am I so dumb around you?!"

Darren chuckled at her as he added, "There is no doubt that you act a little silly sometimes. Anyways, you can ask it whenever you remember it. For now, please free my hands or at least remove this blindfold!"

"Not happening. If you can, do it yourself," challenged Xiu with a bit of a temper because of the way he agreed on calling her silly. If she was calling herself dumb, he should deny it!

"Okay."

Xiu was dumbfounded because she didn't expect this reaction. Before she could make sense of what he meant, he lifted his upper body up and within seconds his hands were free before taking off his blindfold. Since the room was dim-lit with candles, it didn't take long for him to adjust his vision.

As he dangled the handcuffs before her eyes, she was left gaping at him in disbelief. "How did you do that? Ah!"

Darren rolled her over making her yelp. With his knees on either side of her body, he pinned her hands above her head and used the same handcuffs on her. Xiu's eyes widened even more in shock. Wasn't she the one playing? How did the game change? What happened?!

"If you could free yourself why didn't you?" fumed Xiu at him. 

Darren slid the shirt off his shoulders easily because she had already unbuttoned it. His face leaned down to tease her as he replied, "I could do it but you wanted to play. How can I deny you of anything?"

Xiu puffed up her cheeks unhappily. she was only pretending to be unhappy. Inwardly, she was delighted to hear that he had been playing along until she told him to take it off himself. He really had a way to attack her heart out of nowhere.

"Eeeehh..."

"Stop it!" she bit out holding back her moan.

"Why? You started it yourself," he replied innocently as he lifted his face to look into her eyes. Can you guess what Xiu's response was? She was left in a daze looking into his eyes. See? She knew those eyes had a spellbinding ability. She couldn't even feel anything except for the heating intensity in his eyes.

When she earlier said it was gonna be a long night, she never thought she'd face this reversal. And the girl who found solutions in all situations was helpless before this man. Her man!

She noticed how his eyes looked her up and down before a smirk appeared on his face. "Sweets, did you wear this lingerie for me? Were you planning on seducing me?"

Xiu's face heated up and to hide it she went on hurriedly to deny, "No! Definitely not! This was Nora's little revenge. It has nothing to do with seducing you." 

"Oh..." his lips curled downward and seeing that she felt uncomfortable.

"Well, it's not like I need to seduce you. My Baobei is already mine. Do I even have to try to lure him with tricks?"

Darren smiled and happily kissed her cheeks saying, "That's true. You don't need any tricks."

"Now, let me free," urged Xiu. "And you still haven't answered where you learned this skill."

Darren kissed her wrist and came slowly towards her shoulders where the barely reaching her thighs, white silk kimono of hers had already slipped down slightly. When his kisses reached the crook of his neck, he answered, "Sorry, I am not opening this handcuffs that easily. Do you even know how torturous it is to have you in front and not being able to see you or touch you? You should experience it for yourself." Xiu smiled hearing how frustrated he was. She couldn't help it. He looked so adorable as he complained about it. "As for the skill, isn't that Ying Jie your favorite. Go ask her. She taught it to me."

Xiu's eyes sparkled when he said Ying's name. "Wow! Ying Jie is really so cool! I knew she is awesome but I didn't know she would be even more surprising. Seriously, whoever gets her as a life partner must have saved the whole universe in his past life."

Darren bit her bottom lip showing his anger and frustration, "Can you stop admiring your Ying Jie before me? These days, you're either focused on how awesome she is or how you're gonna fix a date for her. Do you even have time for this lonely husband? I feel like you're abandoning me."

"Pfft!" Xiu laughed at his face. "Are you jealous of Ying Jie?" Darren solemnly nodded his head which took Xiu off guard. "You're really jealous of her? Baobei..."

Darren didn't give her a chance to continue as he kissed her harshly.
