Li Xue’s breath hitched but since she was upset with him, she looked away making him know about it.
When Feng Shufen saw her like that, he couldn’t help but smile. “Do you want me to be jealous of your bracelet?” He asked and not understanding his out of the blue context, Li Xue turned to look at him with wrinkled brows of confusion.
Feng Shufen matched her gaze with his own gentle one and then giving the fleeting gaze to her bracelet, he gestured to her to look.
Li Xue followed his line of sight and saw her fingers still working on unhooking the bracelet strap. “Why do you have to be jealous of it? Mr. Beelzebub, just don’t talk anything when you have nothing better to say.”
She said and Feng Shufen smiled at her before reaching out her hands that were wearing the diamond studded bracelet. “How can I not be jealous of it? See, even when you are upset, you are so gentle and caring towards it. While towards me, you even refused to see my face.”
He said and Li Xue was taken aback. She had never seen it like this. The bracelet was fragile, of course, she had to be gentle with them in order to break them, but …
“I …” She thought to explain but before she could do that, the bracelet came off easily and the next moment her bone shivered, feeling the warm pair of lips kissing her knuckles. She wanted to pull away her hands but Feng Shufen held her tightly.
“Mr. Beelzebub, we …”
“Your likes, dislikes, everything affects me. How did you think that your gentleness towards a piece of jewelry won’t. I might look strong on the face but when it comes to you, I can’t bear to see you taking care of anything or anyone else. Not this jewelry piece, not Yi Lan. I just want you for myself. Do you get it?” He said, intertwining his fingers with her and drawing it once again close to kiss the back of her hand.
Li Xue’s face flushed red. This was not the first time she was hearing him speak of his jealousy but the way he was presenting it today was pushing her into the nervousness. She was feeling her stomach tightening with butterflies fluttering their wings inside. She wanted to run away but the way he was holding her would never allow her.
“Mr. Beelzebub, you …”
Feng Shufen looked at her and the corner of his lips rose to give a deep meaning smile to her. “You want to run away? But we are already married. Now no matter where you run off, I will follow you. It’s not going to be easy for you.” He said with a chuckle and Li Xue felt flustered over it.
But when she saw him teasing her, she felt unjust. Narrowing her eyes at him, she said, “You are teasing me, don’t you feel even I can bite back?”
Feng Shufen raised his brows at her and gaining confidence, Li Xue spoke again, “Even a puppy can bite back if teased continuously. You are doing the same. Don’t blame me if I come to bite you.”
She said, and her wild words like that brought a chuckle out from Feng Shufen. Leaving her hand, he leaned back and stared at her face, “Really?” 𝓞𝚟𝓁𝐍𝔢xt.𝕔𝑜𝔪
He asked and Li Xue’s brows jutted together, “You doubt that?”
Feng Shufen laughed again and shook his head. “Definitely not. I can never doubt anything that you say, but pups biting is something rare to see. Don’t you think so, darling?”
Li Xue felt wordless and seeing her like that, Feng Shufen tried to hold back his laughter.
“Are you challenging me?” She asked and holding back the smile, Feng Shufen nodded.
“Fine. Now, you can’t blame me.” Getting up from his lap, she said. Then narrowing her eyes to him, she turned around and left.
Feng Shufen couldn’t help but shake his head. Teasing was always fun, especially when he sees her taking it seriously.
Taking the phone back in hand, he started scrolling the mail when suddenly the lights around dimmed. He turned around to see and his thoughts paused for a moment.
Li Xue was still standing there in her wedding dress but something in her pose was telling that she was out for something.
Under the dim lights, her face was glistening with a different shine while her edgy blurriness in the light was adding to the air of seduction.
“Weren’t you asking for a fun tease, Mr. Beelzebub? Let me make you enjoy it then.” She said and then giving a soft smile, she turned and walked to the dresser.
Feng Shufen’s brows tightened. It was a tease that he began and she took it seriously as he wanted but now, he would also have to take the consequence. Even though he has practiced it for more than a year now, even then he doesn’t feel that he has mastered it. With her standing in front, he still feels like losing his self-control.
Li Xue’s lips curled up in the corners when she saw his hard expression from the mirror. Today she wanted to give him a special night, but it’s his fault to tease her and ruin her plans.
He challenged her for a game, she will make sure that he plays well.
“Weren’t you busy with your phone? You can get back to that. I will take a bit of time to get ready for the game, until then you can complete your work. Oh, I almost forgot, wait …”
Like she had forgotten something really important, she turned around to look at him straight to ask, “Didn’t you say that you have starved yourself for the whole day, so that you can have something tonight? Why don’t you order what you were planning for? I am sure this hotel will be able to serve its President well.”
Feng Shufen’s eyes darkened. She was getting back at him for teasing her on the stage. But then his lips turned up as if he found something to retaliate.
“You seem to feign innocence now. But back on stage when I mentioned it, you seemed to understand what I was talking about.” He said and remembering it from back then, Li Xue smiled.
Looking at him through the mirror, she nodded. “Of course, I did. I knew what you were talking about. But you forgot something, Mr. Beelzebub. Nothing is fixed. Every action has the power to change the results. And yours did the same.”
