Because I simply love you Chapter 158: Taking responsibility

Chapter 158: Taking responsibility

You are so stupid, Nana! How can you fall for that!? Stupid, stupid, stupid!
She stuttered, “I-I…not everything. J-just… But!” she quickly recovered. “How is it connected to me buying the plot? How is it my responsibility?”
“You hugged me, you kissed me, you felt me. Shouldn’t you take responsibility?” Jinhai smirked.
She looked at him, dumbfounded. She gritted her teeth and said, “I really should not remind you, but did I ask you to take responsibility for what happened t-that night?”
“You did not. It was your choice. But I will.”, he shrugged nonchalantly.
She never saw such a shameless man before. She felt like she is now coming to know the real Liu Jinhai. There is no connection to how she flirted with him and why she must buy the place. He is just forcibly creating one!
He continued, “You know my feelings for you, yet you tried to stir me up. You know how every one of your actions affects me. You took the initiative to kiss me, touch me, and cling onto me. Can you imagine how I felt? But I was kind enough to let you go with just that.”
“That…I’m –”, she couldn’t refute him.
“You exactly know what kind of desire you were igniting within me. You were playing with fire.”, he narrowed his eyes, dangerously, “But I stopped myself to not burn you in it.”
“T-that may be so, and I apologize for…”, her cheeks turned rosy red, “how I behaved, but it was my first time drinking, and I had no idea that I will c-change like that.”
He kept on looking.
“And I didn’t know that you will visit that bar too!” she said indignantly, “Were you stalking me?”
Ah, this is fun, he thought.
He picked up his mobile and opened his call log. He pushed the phone, and it slid towards her on the desk displaying the incoming call list.
She peeked in it.
“Just whose number is that I wonder.”, he feigned being doubtful.
She widened her eyes.
“Do you perhaps recognize it?”
Damn, I forgot that we had prank called him!
“No? Let me try calling it.”
“N-no that is-,” but he already dialed it.
A few seconds later, they heard a phone ringing loud and clear.
She pursed her lips and lowered her head to see her phone blinking showing an incoming call.
Liu Jinhai.
She continued to keep her head lowered as she lost all face before him. She didn’t dare to look him in the eye.
“I think I have clearly refreshed your memory now. ALL of it.”
She said nothing.
He got up and walked towards her. He held her arm and pulled her in his embrace. He wrapped his left hand around her waist and held her chin with his right, forcing her to look at him.
“So you see, I was happily busy in my meeting here in the office. YOU once again took the initiative to call me. I realized you were drunk. You cannot say that I should have ignored it. I love you, so how can I leave you alone when I know you are sitting somewhere wasted in a bar.”
Her cheeks flushed red, hearing him confess again so naturally.
She nervously said, not able to hide her erratic breaths. “You…I got your point. I started everything.” She tried to step back, but he firmly held her, pulling even closer.
Her nose bumped against his chest. She gasped softly.
He tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear. That simple gesture made her eyelids tremble. The light brush of his finger slightly jolted her in nervousness. A strange excitement rushed in every cell of her body.
He didn’t miss her single reaction. Watching her shy like that, he couldn’t help himself. He bent down and kissed her forehead, pressing his lips on it for quite a few seconds. Then he pecked on the corner of her eyes. He agonizingly moved back, rubbing his nose along the way.
“I love you.” Sticking out the tip of his tongue, he licked her ear.
She couldn’t help but tilt her head, feeling more of it.
“Now your turn. Say you love me too. Just like last night.” He said in a low, deep voice, soaring her emotions high.
“I-I don’t understand.”
He bit her ear hard. “Wrong answer.”
Jinhai understood that she remembered what she had said. She was just feigning ignorance. But that was more than enough. So, he didn’t tease her any further.
She shivered, feeling the familiar sensation welling inside her. She tightly clutched his shirt, shutting her eyes.
He peppered soft kisses on her cheeks, nose, and chin. With his thumb, he traced the path of her lower lip. He lingered there for a while before he started to part her lips, invading his thumb ever so slowly, making her feel every bit of it.
Nana was feeling weak in her knees, and she just wanted to collapse, but he had secured her in his embrace.
Jinhai felt the warmth and wetness of her soft tongue enveloping his finger. He circled around, fondling and tickling it. Just as he was about to kiss her, his phone rang into life, snapping them out of their trance.
Nana realized what was going to happen and panicked. She pushed him to get free, but he didn’t let go.
“You! Let me go!” she hit him on the chest, but her beating was as light as a feather to him.
Jinhai calmly picked up his phone as if nothing wrong happened. He saw the incoming number calling.
Huian.
He immediately cut it, switched off his phone, and tossed it aside.
Nana was still struggling. “Let go!”
He smiled, “Why? Just now, you were so into it.”
Nana cursed herself for being unable to resist his charm and going along with the flow. He seduced her!
She gritted her teeth.
“Please stop doing this. Don’t forget that you are still married.”
He smirked, “That is just your excuse.” From her waist, he moved his hand upwards to her back and stopped where he could feel the hook of her bra.
Jinhai slightly tugged it through her dress. He leaned in. His very look and voice was seductively sweet and husky. “Or did you realize that only I can make you feel this way?”
