Chapter 72: His Passion

Chapter 72

"Do you need me to help you?" He took a deep breath to calm his wandering thoughts, then walked over and handed Rong Dai her cane, gently asking her another question.

Huo Mei Shu was hiding in the kitchen watching the show. Seeing her eldest brother miss such a good opportunity, she was a little exasperated with him.

With a twinkle in her eye, a plan formed in her mind. Looking at the milk in her hand, her eyes gleamed mischievously as she walked over to the two of them.

"Eldest brother, sister-in-law, you're back! I just happened to heat up some milk. Sister-in-law, drink some, it's good for sleep."

She handed the cup forcefully to Rong Dai without waiting to see if she would take it or not.

The milk splashed out, instantly spilling all over Rong Dai. Her cane was also soaked.

"Oh no! I'm so clumsy, I got your cane all wet too. I'll go wash it off. Eldest brother, carry sister-in-law upstairs."

She quickly snatched the cane back from Rong Dai, and winked playfully at Huo Shao Ting.

This little sister was very thoughtful, wasn't she?

Then she quickly escaped into the kitchen, leaning against the doorframe to continue watching the "story" unfold.

Rong Dai: "..."

What should she say to this little girl...

Huo Shao Ting had already carried her up and down the stairs six or seven times today! Besides, this was...really awkward.

She looked up at Huo Shao Ting anxiously, a trace of irritable shyness in her eyes. Her voice trembled slightly:

"Or...you can carry me upstairs."

She had run out of the cinema just now because she was too nervous. She must have walked too hurriedly, because her ankle was starting to hurt a little now.

She wasn't afraid of anything, but she would never joke around with her own body.

If she sprained her ankle, it would not only affect her gait, but also cause her some inconvenience.

"Alright." How could Huo Shao Ting not know that Huo Mei Shu was deliberately creating opportunities for them? It was just that his eyes had strayed to places they shouldn't have earlier, and the surging feelings in his body were a bit difficult to suppress at the moment.

What nonsense about a courtesan!

A voice in Rong Dai's heart cursed silently. Her heart thumped erratically, pounding like a trapped deer.

Huo Shao Ting's steps faltered. He gazed at the woman's back, and the scene from the cloakroom floated into his mind again.

"Shao Ting?" Hearing no movement for a while, Rong Dai assumed he had left. She instinctively turned her head and called out softly.

It just so happened that she turned right as Huo Shao Ting walked back to unzip her dress for her.

Their heated breaths intertwined. Blood surged through their bodies, their hearts raced, and waves of fiery tingles washed over them with each frantic beat.

Gazing at Huo Shao Ting so intimately close, Rong Dai's mind went blank. A small voice inside was chanting: she was willing.

Huo Shao Ting had been holding back the entire afternoon. Seeing the look in Rong Dai's eyes now, he understood. His sturdy arms embraced her slender waist seemingly of their own accord, pulling her against his chest.

Feeling the softness of her delicate body, his blood roared like magma. Breathing heavily, his dark eyes reflected her face.

Rong Dai had never felt such madness before. The ecstasy and passion...his ardor robbed her of all thought. Hearing his low murmur, she softly replied, her throat delicate and coy.

Her response emboldened Huo Shao Ting. He wanted nothing more than to pull her into his very marrow!

"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law!"

Just as the two were losing themselves, Huo Shao Jie arrived at their worst possible moment, contract in hand, pounding anxiously on their bedroom door. Of course, the door was unlocked, so he rushed right in.

"Sister-in-law?"

Seeing the bedroom empty, Huo Shao Jie was frantic. He had been working on this contract issue all afternoon—it wasn't easy for him!

Hearing the voice outside, Rong Dai's body jerked in surprise as reason slowly trickled back.

Hands braced against Huo Shao Ting's chest, her face still flushed, breathing still rapid, she shyly yet firmly pushed him away. "Shao Ting...Shao Jie is outside."

In her previous life, she was no stranger to intimacy between men and women, but she had never experienced such passion born of emotion. She knew full well where things would lead if they kept going.

It wasn't that she was rejecting Huo Shao Ting, but Huo Shao Jie's intrusion had interrupted her mood. Although she still craved to continue as well.

However, in such matters, it was a spur of the moment thing. With Huo Shao Jie still calling out, she had no choice but to rein in her senses.
