CHAPTER 697


On the other hand, Ren and Chen’an lived peacefully, with him having some sneak attacks on her, trying to get a kiss from her.


Honestly, the young lad did not know why he was like that around her save for the fact that he felt a certain pull towards her anytime she was close by.


At first, it was for fun, but it had been a few days since that Friday night and he became closer to her.


Speaking of which, he did not call anyone at that time.


One reason was the fact that Ye Cheng men still patrolled around that area in search of him and another was the fact that Chen’an was mostly around him. He could not get his phone nor could he use hers.


.....


It was like she was carefully keeping a close eye on him.


Finally, he took the courage and requested her phone. Since he had been with her, he managed to study her att.i.tude and character.


She was lovely, less trouble than he thought she would be and very cooperative to the point he found it fishy.


Whether or not she trusted him fully, he could not say but even at that, blaming her would be stupid of him since she had done her best.


But of course, she had her price.


“Chen’an,” Ren called out in a low tone.


“Speak up, I cannot hear you,” the young lady replied while she flipped the eggs in the frypan and resumed her cooking.


He took in a deep breath and inhaled the sweet smell of the meal she was making, eggs with toast, coleslaw and sauce side dishes.


He stood up from where he sat on the kitchen stool close to the door and made his way over to her. “I said, Chen’an,” he got behind her and wrapped his hands around her waist, “You are beautiful.”


“And you, my dear, you are such a playboy. Buzz off!”


He squinted at her yell and ultimately pulled his hands away from her body. From the look of things, she had gotten used to his antique and knew how to fend him off.


However, Ren did not plan on losing. If he did, who knows just how she would take control. No.


He took a step forward again when she moved a bit to the left-hand side and caught her again.


“Hey, love.”


“Ren, stop it.” Even though those were the words that fell from her mouth, she did not do anything to stop him and went on with her cooking.


“Are you sure about that?”


“Yes. Very much.”


“Okay, but why are you tensed up this way?” As he spoke, his fingers moved up her stomach, going to the centre and ascending further.


Just as he had said, she tensed up again, her nerves awakening fully to his slow touches. She turned off her gas burner while her eyes dropped to a close, as she took in deep steady breaths.


Without being told, she knew where all of these were heading if she allowed him.


He would once again claim her lips and they would spend time making out.


Yes, she liked him but she wanted a normal relationship with a guy and not one that seemed forced or just as a playtime.


Fun was good, but in the end, where would it leave her, someone who wanted a serious partner in her life?


She would feel emptier than before. Taking in a last deep breath, she reached for his hand, placing her over his, just before his fingers closed in on one of her b.r.e.a.s.t.s.


“Stop it, Ren.” Quickly she took his immediate pause as an opportunity and turned around to look at him.


For someone who had something to ask her, he sure looked dreamy and breathtaking that she could not resist. If he kissed her now, she most definitely would let him in and respond with equal vigour.


“Ren...”


“Can I make use of your phone, please? I want to place a call through to someone.”


“Oh.” He could sense the disappointment in her voice when he asked that. It was obvious she expected something else but he did not help with anything.


All he wanted was a nice way to ask her such that she would not be able to refuse him, but he did that and he over did it that he was feeling reluctant to leave her.


The look in those beady eyes of hers was so enchanting in more ways than one and he understood for a brief minute why he longed for her.


When he faced her, she looked calm and that certain calmness in the midst of uncertainty and confusion was what gave him joy and solace.


Soon enough, their heads were already being drawn to each other as their eyelids drop close bit by bit as their lips inched closer.


Just when they were about to meet, Ren pried his eyes open and licked his lips. “No. I’m sorry.”


He pulled back and lowered his head as her own eyes flew open. She did not know what she did wrong to warrant him leaving her that way.


She already yearned for his kiss and she knew he wanted it too but he pulled away.


Sayings he was disappointed was an understatement. She was mad and confused. Regardless, she tried her best not to show him her disappointment and masked her feelings.


“Umm, here you go,” she reached into her pocket and got out her phone, then handed it to him.


Lifting his head, his gaze fell on her face and then back to her hand. “Oh, thanks.” He had to admit, he was sad seeing her act like it meant nothing to her.


However, he deserved it. She did not deserve what he did. How dare he to put her in the mood and just shake it off?


“Thanks.”


“Sure, use it quickly and I would be charging you for that,” a small smile spread on her lips.


She tried desperately to hide her sadness and made a joke but he saw through her.


“Yeah, keep calculating.”
