That was why she would suppress all these feelings inside her.

After their meal, Yun Bixue told Xie Limo, "Don't cook dinner for me later. I'm not coming back."

Xie Limo was sitting on the sofa and switching the TV channels when he heard Yun Bixue say that. A dark, gloomy aura immediately swelled around him.

Yun Bixue wanted to tease Xie Limo at first, but seeing how he was like, she swallowed hard before saying, "Erm, it's the ladies who came earlier. They asked me out to dinner. Actually, they invited me to lunch, but I told them that I agreed to eat with you, so I can only do dinner."

Once Yun Bixue explained, the dark aura around Xie Limo immediately dissipated.

He turned to look at Yun Bixue with a faint twinkle in his eyes. Yun Bixue felt really weirded out by this. "I just wanted to see your reaction."

Xie Limo said resignedly, "You saw it now. Happy?"

Yun Bixue walked over and sat down beside him. She locked her arm around his elbow and said, "I haven't finished talking. Look at how you're acting already."

Xie Limo lightly knocked her head as he said, "You know how scared I am that…" He could not finish what he was about to say. When he thought about how he could not find her when he returned from Gui County, he felt as though his heart had been emptied out.

Yun Bixue immediately felt guilty. She knew how that kind of desolation felt like. "I'm sorry, it's my fault."

"You're only allowed to do this once. If you scare me again like this, see how I will punish you."

Yun Bixue meekly said, "I just said that I won't be coming back for dinner, is it that serious?"

Xie Limo suddenly stood up and stared down at Yun Bixue. It was as if a storm was brewing within his exquisite eyes. He locked his gaze deeply with Yun Bixue and said, "Say that again. Is it that serious? How did you say that phrase just now? Say it again."

"I'm not coming back for dinner."

"No."

"I'm not coming back tonight?"

"No."

"I… I forgot." Yun Bixue had a feeling that he might just strangle her to death the very next moment.

Xie Limo bent and placed both hands on the sofa, trapping Yun Bixue. He lowered his head and said in a deep voice, "Xue, I'll say it again for you. You said that you're not coming back tonight."

Yun Bixue waved her hands frantically as she explained, "No, that's not what I mean. I will definitely come back. I will definitely come home tonight."

Xie Limo's breath tickled her ear as he said that. The strong, domineering aura that was thick with his manly scent was a deadly temptation to her. Her breaths started quickening.

"Limo, I… I was wrong, okay?" Yun Bixue softened up immediately. She widened her eyes and stared at Xie Limo reproachfully, as though to scold him for his tone.

Xie Limo's heart softened. He lowered his head and kissed Yun Bixue hard. His hands reached beneath her clothes as his cool fingertips traveled across her body in complete dominance, making her unable to escape.

This kiss unraveled a storm that was unstoppable. Xie Limo flipped around and hugged Yun Bixue at once. He was now sitting on the sofa with Yun Bixue on his lap.

"Xue, you made me upset. This is your punishment." Xie Limo's domineering tone was irresistible, tugging her heartstrings ceaselessly.

Yun Bixue knew that it was her fault. Of all the things she did, she should not have ruffled a tiger's fur.

This time, Xie Limo's hands were searching for sparks everywhere. Yun Bixue knew how crazy it would be later on, but deep down, she really did miss him.

Yun Bixue did not reject his advances either. She smiled as she gasped softly and took the initiative to hug Xie Limo around the neck.
