Xie Ming retracted her hand from the handshake with Bai Xiuren as she grabbed Liwei's arm and hugged it tightly pulling him towards her.
Liwei raised his brows in surprise with a smile on his face.
Bai Xiuren saw Xie Ming's action and smiled stiffly.
" If you came early, then what about Bai Ju? He didn't come with you?" Liwei asked her as he looked at Bai Xiuren.
" He got some work at the last moment. So he didn't come with me but he will come back in two days." she said while brushing her hair and putting them behind her ears revealing her slender neck.
Liwei nodded as he heard her words. " By the way, what were you doing here?"
" I am meeting my friend here. She has not arrived yet so I was waiting for her. " she said with a warm smile.
Liwei nodded and said, " Then let's meet again when Bai Ju comes back."
Bai Xiuren nodded and walked towards him and gave him a hug and said," Let's meet another time."
She gave him her business card as she smiled and glanced at Xie Ming with the side eye.
Xie Ming was caught off guard when she suddenly hugged Liwei. A frown appeared on her face but she didn't say anything because she doesn't know the extent of friendship between them.
Moreover, hugging is a normal action of greeting in this world, so she doesn't want to make a fuss out of it.
But it doesn't mean she liked it. .
In fact, Liwei was surprised as well. He was not expecting her to hug him suddenly. But since she was Bai Ju's sister, he didn't think otherwise.
" It was nice meeting you, Ms. Xie." Bai Xiuren smiled at Xie Ming while saying this.
Xie Ming frowns when she hears Bai Xiuren addressing her as Ms. Xie. She could have called her Xie Ming or Mrs. Jin. But she chose to call her Ms. Xie.
" Ah, my friend has arrived. Let's meet again next time." she looked out of the window as she saw her friend walking towards the restaurant and bid goodbye to Xie Ming and Liwie.
They didn't stay there anymore and exited the restaurant after bidding farewell with Bai Xiuren. Xie Ming's expressions were stiff and uncomfortable.
She knows that Liwei is handsome and attractive and many girls swoon over him.
But she never bothered about them in the past because he never looked at them even for a moment. However, this girl is not only extremely pretty, she has a pretty good bond with Liwei as well.
Though she was not threatened by her, this feeling of being provoked is not pleasant at all.
When they exited the restaurant, Liwei glanced at Xie Ming whose expression was stiffened and she wasn't saying anything.
He felt a strange strong aura from her.
" Is anything wrong?" he asked as the valet brought his car and passed him the car keys.
Xie Ming didn't say anything and turned to the other side and sat on the passenger seat.
-_-
Liwei was surprised for a moment seeing Xie Ming giving him the silent treatment.
He also sat in the car and glanced at her from sideways.
….
They reached home in 20 minutes and in those 20 minutes Xie Ming didn't say anything to him and looked out of the window all the time.
She didn't even give him a glance in the car since they left the restaurant.
When they reached home, she didn't talk to him and went upstairs without glancing at him.
Liwei was confused as he had no idea what happened to her. Why did she suddenly get angry with him?
Yu mei and head butler were also in the living room and saw Xie Ming treading to upstairs with no emotions on her face.
Liwei sighed and went upstairs to know the cause of her behavior. He has no idea why he was being ignored for no reason.
" Xie Ming?" he slowly pushed open the door of their bedroom. He saw that she was taking her clothes from the closet.
" Are you going for a bath?" Liwei asked as he stood there with his hands folded in front of his chest.
Xie Ming didn't look at him nor replied to his question.
She simply picked up her night dress from the closet and slammed the closet door with a Bang.
Liwei was stunned seeing her anger. His breath hitched as he saw her face devoid of any expressions.
It was the first time he felt a little scared of her.
" Is something bothering you?" Liwei asked carefully as she turned to walk towards the bathroom.
.
She halted in her steps and glared at him, " No. I am ' absolutely' fine." she said with a smile on her face.
Liwei felt his chest tightening. She was smiling but he could see that she didn't mean that smile.
" You….are you jealous?" he asked as he remembered that she was behaving strangely since they met Bai Xiuren at the restaurant.
Xie Ming opened the bathroom door and was about to enter in when she stopped in her actions. Her expressions turned sour as she wondered if she was really jealous.
Liwei's lips curled upwards seeing her reaction. Her expressions were enough for him to know her thoughts.
" Oh.. So Mrs. Jin is jealous. I never knew that you can be the jealous type." he chuckled as he walked towards her.
Xie Ming's jaw tightened as she said, " I am not.." she turned her head and before she could complete her words, Liwei interrupted her by placing his lips over her soft lips.
Xie Ming was caught off guard when he suddenly kissed her. She stumbled back as she tightly held onto the half opened bathroom door.
He grabbed her by the waist as he kissed her. His kiss was frivolous and playful.
He bit down on her lower lip playfully and sucked them afterwards.
Xie Ming m.o.a.ned in pain mixed with pleasure and placed her one hand on his shoulder trying to keep her balance. Her legs had gone weak as she was trying to keep up with his passionate kiss.
Liwei pulled her closer, reducing the distance between their warm bodies and feeling her warm body hidden under her thin dress.
Xie Ming removed her hand from the door and put her arms on his shoulders while trying to assess the situation.
Her mind went dizzy as she closed her eyes and returned his kiss. There are very few moments when she shows her boldness and reciprocates the intimacy in their relationship.
It could be her conservative and reserved nature from last life but it was still quite difficult for her to be open about her expressions and physical intimacy.
However, while he was kissing her,she remembered how Bai Xiuren hugged Liwei in front of her while giving her a mocking look.
She felt a sense of insecurity at that time and she returned his kiss with the equal passion to remind herself that it was only her who could kiss him, not that Bai Xiuren.
Liwei was surprised when he felt her taking initiative in the kissing. He didn't take the lead and let her kiss him with her sloppy actions.
She bit him back on her lips making him m.o.a.n in pleasure rather than pain. Xie Ming felt his hand squeezing her butt which made her body shudder.
Her body clinged to his and he could feel her shudder against his body. He felt a surge of passion in his body as she ignited the fire inside him.
He opened his eyes as he saw Xie Ming's closed eyes and enticing expression and those delicate cheeks. She was kissing him with her close eyes but those expressions made it difficult for him to control his feelings towards her.
He tightened her other hand around her waist as he took the lead again and deepened the kiss while raising her lightly from the floor.
Xie Ming felt herself floating in the air as he held her by the waist and raised her from the floor while kissing her frivolously.
Her mind had already gone blank and eyes turned hazy as he was kissing her. The thoughts about Bai Xiuren and the jealousy in her heart has been dissipated with his actions rather than words.
