Chapter 320 A Mistake

A few moments later...

'When is he coming?' Zhang Liling thought worriedly as she lay in bed with her eyes on the door, waiting for when Fang Bingwen would come in.

She didn't know how long she has been lying in bed, but she felt it has been since forever.

She was starting to be worried. Impatience was already running through her veins and she was almost tempted to go drag him from his study room.

However, she was fortunate to have her nerves calmed down because the next moment, Fang Bingwen pushed the door open and stepped inside the room.

Immediately, Zhang Liling pushed off the duvet on the bed while calling out to him.

"Mr. Fang."

Tilting his head to the side, Fang Bingwen saw her standing beside his bed with furrowed brows, but something else caught his attention.

He just didn't know what made his gaze to leave her face.

Her chest.

His room was so bright that he couldn't avoid glancing downwards.

She wasn't putting on any bra, and he could tell with how her night outfit, outlined the shape.

'Maybe it was a mistake asking her to come up here.' He thought with regret as he felt a sensation down to the tool below his legs.

As soon as he felt those familiar tingles, he turned his gaze back to her face to ask, "You are not sleeping yet?"

"I was waiting for you." Zhang Liling replied as she stood there watching him.

A soft sigh escaped his lips as he turned to walk towards her. "Sorry, I had a little work to settle." He said as put his phone on the night stand.

Glancing briefly at her, he asked softly, "Are you okay?"

"Mmm," Zhang Liling nodded.

"Alright." Fang Bingwen responded before turning to leave. But before he could take about five steps, he had the hurried shuffling of feet behind and was forced to stop in his steps.

Looking at the woman who was already two long steps away from the bed, a smile that reached his eyes appeared on his face.

"I'm going to take a shower, do you want to come with me?" He teased as his gaze studied her.

For a second, Zhang Liling was calm and looked like she was considering his offer. For after a few seconds, she shook her head desperately.

"How long will you take?" She asked instead.

"Five minutes. Now go back to bed and wait for me." Mr. Fang instructed before turning to leave.

He didn't know the reason she was acting like a scardy cat, but she had better wait in bed. Or was she afraid that he would run away?

Shaking off the random thoughts coming into his head, he walked into the inner room while Zhang Liling went back to bed.

This time around, she sat instead of lying on it. Her gaze, darting across the room in a bid to keep herself busy till he returned.

Thankfully, Fang Bingwen's five minutes, was five minutes so she didn't have to wait a minute longer than that.

Seeing him fresh out of shower as he carried the scent from his shower gel along, Zhang Liling's racing heart, slowly relaxed in her chest.

"You were quick." She couldn't help but utter as her gaze rested on his face.

"I had to. I left you a promise I meant to keep," Fang Bingwen replied as he walked toward her.

Stopping in front of her, he asked, "Do you want to stay outside or inside?"

Not sure what that question meant, she raised a questioning brow at him. In turn, she got him to explain.

Fang Bingwen pointed his finger at the bed, directly telling her what he meant.

Understanding him now, she raised her legs and pushed her body to the other side. "I will let you protect me."

A soft chuckle escaped his lips as he lifted the duvet and got into bed. "I will protect you."

As soon as Fang Bingwen laid his head on the pillow, the little woman came pushing her body toward him.

Immediately he felt her soft body on the left side of his body, he froze for a moment. That feeling, was tempting.

Tilting his head to the side, he saw her head of hair in his line of sight, but that didn't stop him from saying what he wanted.

,m "I thought it would be fine as long as we lay in the same bed. Why are you smuggling up close?"

"I feel better this way," Zhang Liling replied without raising her head as her eyes shut without warning.

Being in his embrace was what she wanted, and it seems like he had forgotten the promise he made earlier.

He said that they would continue it at night.

Mr. Fang was quiet for some time until he was unable to take it. Feeling the softness of her chest pressed to his hard body through her thin dress was torture.

"Liling..." He called out while letting out a deep breath.

"Mmmm..."

"I don't think this can work. You should lay off my body."

"Why?" Zhang Liling raised her head as their gazes met.

"I can feel your..." He stuttered. Unable to finish his sentence, he shook his head. "Forget it, just move over."

Zhang Liling rested her jaw on his chest and asked as she stared deeply into his eyes. "You can feel my chest just the same way I can feel your rock-hard body."

Releasing a deep breath after being able to guess what was wrong, she added, "This only shows that you want me."

"I am not going to do anything." Fang Bingwen said immediately with creased brows just before she would come up with a ridiculous suggestion.

"But you can have me." She said, fulfilling his initial thoughts.

"Are you here to seduce me or get a good night rest? Do you want to go back to your room?" Fang Bingwen asked with a bitter taste in his mouth.

He would not hesitate to send her away if she tried to tempt him into doing what he didn't want to do.

Hearing the threat in his tone, Zhang Liling hurriedly laid the side of her face on his chest.
