Chapter 119 - This was his first official kiss to her...

"Oh, that! Actually i…."

Looking at the dark face of Feng Jianyu, Xiu Mei understood that his thought has wandered in some different direction. Knowing how short-tempered he is, most probably he is controlling his emotions at the moment to make her spill the beans peacefully.

But how can she let go of such an opportunity where she can avenge for the torture he had given her since last one month. Grabbing the golden opportunity with both hands she acted ignorantly and gave an ambiguous reply.

"It's nothing… Just random purchase" Giving a peculiar answer she walked to the Feng Jianyu's car. After getting into the Rolls Royce she looked through the windshield at the tall man who was standing rooted to the ground.

Feng Jianyu "….."

Like being struck by lightning, Feng Jianyu stared blankly in shock as he saw Xiu Mei's casual attitude at this matter. After a moment of silence he strode towards the car.

"Mei, what do you mean by random purchase? This stuff cannot be used by a woman, I'm sure you know that!" His voice sounded stern and Xiu Mei answered back lazily, hiding her smile.

"This thing cannot be used by a woman, but it's supposed to be used along with a woman. I'm sure you are aware of this too!"

"So you are not willing to give me the actual answer?" Feng Jianyu asked and Xiu Mei replied casually, "This is the actual answer"

"Good..." After a long pause of silence, a short reply came from him.

Xiu Mei frowned at such a vague reply, she was expecting something more. With a confused look, she glanced at Feng Jianyu. Surprisingly, he was unfazed, his expression was of unexpected calmness.

"Confused?" He looked straight into the eyes of the naughty woman sitting beside him. Xiu Mei was startled by his calm demeanor. With a deep frown, she blinked at him nonstop, trying to read through his mind, but failed miserably.

"Uhh! No… no… why would I be confused?" She shook her head vigorously, feeling as if he can read through her mind.

Throughout their journey back home she keeps on sneaking glances at him, anticipating for some reaction. However, Feng Jianyu was surprisingly quiet and didn't bother her as per his promise. He acted like a true gentleman.

When she opened her bag to take out the packet of condom, a purchase bill fell from it. He noticed that it was the bill of a pharmacy and she paid 500 bucks in total for two products. One is female hygiene products worth 465 and the rest is 35 for the condom.

It didn't take him a single second to understand that most probably pharmacist has given her a packet of the condom as the remaining balance of the money. But he wanted to see her reaction, so he played along.

When they reached home, Xiu Mei's patience ran off. She inhaled deeply before asking him, "Why are you acting like this? Don't you want to know how this condom ended up in my bag? Why are you not angry at me? Why are you not creating a ruckus? Why are you not questioning me?"

Feng Jianyu was surprised at her reaction. He was dumbfounded that she is mad at him because he didn't give her any reaction on condoms. With his right hand in his pocket, he keenly observed the cute woman in front of him.

"Mei, you want me to create a ruckus over condoms?" he asked.

"Of course yes…"

"Why?"

"Why? What type of question is that? Don't you think you should get angry upon finding a packet of condom from the bag of the woman you are courting?"

Feng Jianyu was pleased by her positive response. This was the first time she openly accepted the fact that he is courting her. And most important she is behaving like a girlfriend who didn't receive her due attention from her boyfriend.

After this whole month of hard work, finally today he got some reaction from her. His gaze was scrutinizing Xiu Mei's every expression.

At last, his efforts are not useless. This small gesture she showed today was more than enough to motivate him to keep on persevering to melt her cold heart.

Feng Jianyu answered innocently, "But I was just fulfilling my promise of not to trouble you while driving back home"

"Hahaha…. Very funny!! Your promise was not to tease and flirt with me. But you gave me silent treatment throughout the journey. You didn't ask me anything about that stupid packet of condoms which was given to me by that lewd pharmacy owner because he doesn't have change." She revealed the truth herself feeling unfair at Feng Jianyu's nonchalant behavior.

"What do you want me to do?" he asked smiling inadvertently.

"Throw tantrums, yell at me, scold me, ask why I was carrying them in my bag…. At least do something! Don't show me.... Uhhhhh"

Before she could say anything further, he landed his large palm over her head and ruffled her hair to turn it messy, "This is my way of scolding you" he smiled.

Xiu Mei "…."

Later he gently held the back of her head to pull her towards him and lovingly placed a kiss on her soft cheek, "And this is my way of punishing you"

Xiu Mei was stunned by this sudden gesture, making her speechless. Her mouth was wide agape, her cheeks tomato red and her face was a mixture of shock, disbelief and perplex. She was more stunned by her own behavior she showed against him just now.

On the other hand, Feng Jianyu's gaze was blazing with insuppressible emotion. Like a scorching sun, he was melting her ice-cold heart with his continuous efforts. His heart was beating like a jungle drum, boiling his blood…

This was his first official kiss to her… Before when he had kissed her she was sleeping and the other kiss was on top of her head, which he doesn't count.

He was anxiously looking at her, waiting for her reaction. Knowing her resentfulness towards him, he was almost prepared to receive a tight slap from her or even worse she would kick him out of her house.

Standing in front of Feng Jianyu, Xiu Mei could feel his heartbeat even a distance away, 'Why is he behaving so frantic, when I'm the one on losing side?' She questioned herself, keeping her gaze lowered.

Xiu Mei remembered the day seven years back when she kissed him voluntarily for the first time when he made her meet Feng Dingxiong.

Today after seven years he kissed her voluntarily… This is their second kiss… That day Feng Jianyu teased her saying that she stole his first kiss… And today after seven years he stole her first kiss.

A lot of things has changed between them in these seven years and one of the most important thing that has changed are feeling towards each other…

Her mind was clouded because of this sudden change in the circumstances…. She herself was unable to understand how to react at this situation…. Normally Xiu Mei should feel repugnance towards Feng Jianyu, but that feeling was nowhere to be seen…. She hates him but at the same time, she cares for him…. She hates being touched by man but at the same time when Feng Jianyu touches her by pinching her cheeks, caressing her hair, holding her hand and even kissing her, she can't bring herself to detest his touch….

Her feelings were complicated. She is aware of Feng Jianyu's feelings towards her but she also knew perfectly about his despicable behavior that night in the resort. Since the time he has started living with her, she has tried hard to find that abominable man behind that scary night but all she saw was the caring and loving man that he used to be seven years back.

In reality, she couldn't say for the fact who is the real Feng Jianyu.... One she saw that night or the one who is living with her in her house for almost two months.

Feng Jianyu felt himself standing on the thin line, looking at her intricately. He was registering every expression on her face. It was because he respected her, he cared towards her and want to take things further at the slow pace, he showed his affection towards her by kissing her cheeks lightly.
