At this point, He Jingyao simply held her waist with one hand and gripped her butt with the other… His burning hot palm seemed to want to scorch that place.
Su Zixi looked into the man’s increasingly deep and obscure eyes, her vision gradually becoming misty!
She felt shame, anger, and fury!
“Master He, what exactly do you want to do?” She spoke through gritted teeth.
“Just taking a bath.” He gave a lazy smile, “I know you barged in out of concern, so I don’t blame you.”
Su Zixi was so angry her chest hurt!
He didn’t blame her? Should she be grateful for that?
“Then, can you please let go now?” She almost spat the words out through clenched teeth.
“If I let go, you’ll fall.” He Jingyao’s tone was very earnest, his expression very innocent, “Isn’t that what just happened?”
Su Zixi wanted to cry.
She wanted to say: If you hadn’t been causing trouble, I wouldn’t have fallen at all!
But, would this shameless man admit to it? Admit it, admit it, admit it?
“I won’t fall this time! I promise!” She said viciously.
“Alright then.” He Jingyao smiled slightly and finally withdrew his hands.
Su Zixi quietly sighed in relief and struggled to crawl towards the edge of the bathtub, but as soon as she moved, her actions stiffened!
Stunned for a moment, Su Zixi quickly realized what it was!
Instantly, she felt as if struck by lightning! She opened her eyes wide in panic, her body frozen, unable to move.
This man actually… he actually…
Su Zixi instinctively glanced at him, only to see a hint of restraint hidden in his lazy smile… and a trace of desire that was hard to gauge in his deep, unfathomable eyes.
Su Zixi suddenly felt her mouth go dry.
Even more frightening, what should she do? She didn’t dare move at all, yet the man beneath her was like a lurking hungry wolf, ready to devour her at any moment!
But her staying still didn’t mean the man wouldn’t move at all. He simply chuckled softly, and even that slight movement was enough to make her feel that scorching presence again…
Luckily, she bit her lips hard to restrain the impulse!
The heat in the air was rising bit by bit. The desire in He Jingyao’s eyes grew more intense… Those pitch-black eyes seemed like a net, ready to close in and devour her completely!
No, it couldn’t go on like this!
She knew her cheeks were already red beyond belief, but Su Zixi still struggled to maintain her composure. She fixed her eyes firmly on the edge of the bathtub as if it were her salvation…
But soon enough, Su Zixi realized another problem.
At this moment, all her weight was on this man, making inevitable some physical contact with him…
If she wanted to extend her leg, she had to use her hand for support. But the bathtub was too deep, and she couldn’t reach the bottom, so she could only press on his chest.
If she extended her upper body first, her legs would still need support… which would mean giving this man a chance to act, which was absolutely unacceptable!
Perhaps sensing her awkwardness, He Jingyao’s lips curled up again.
