Yami Hu took the clothes from her, “I know, don’t get mad at me, I’m just saying. If I did, your father would jump up and lift the roof. I don’t know what kind of pedantic thinking your father has.”
Yami Hu chattered, taking his clothes and heading to the dressing room. Zoey Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, “Mom, it’s not Dad who’s being pedantic, it’s you and godmother who’s overthinking …”
Yami Hu doesn’t even bother to look back, just shakes his head back and forth and heads into the locker room.
Looking at the back, Zoey gently smiled. Sometimes, happiness is really simple, just a little thing …
Was she supposed to be happy at this moment? Right now, like this, with her family, was the happiness she wanted, wasn’t it? However, why was her heart empty, as if, there was a place that was always missing an opening that could not be filled.
In the middle of her thoughts, Zoey only felt a shadow sweep down and cover her firmly. She froze for a split second and looked up, her entire being stunned when she saw the face.
The moment …
She, distinctly and clearly, heard the sound of her heart beating.
The surrounding world, as if blurred, for a time, eyes only left in front of the existence of this one person. He, obviously did not do anything, did not say anything, just that lowered his head and gazed deeply at her, has dominated all of her sight and thoughts are occupied full, so that she is like being compelled to think.
Why, is it like that?
Why, again, has it come to this?
“Zoey , how about you help mom look at this dress?” Yami Hu’s voice, coming from the dressing room, suddenly interrupted Zoey’s thoughts.
Zoey The whole person froze, glanced at him across the room, and then glanced in panic at the locker room that was about to open. Heart, panicked, she turned back to her face and subconsciously pushed Jerry Xiao, “You hurry up, don’t let my mom see you.”
He wasn’t propelled by her. Instead, her hand was held by him in a dangling grip all at once, Zoey looked at him in shock, but he pulled her flatly, and without a second thought, brought her whole body into the other dressing room. Luckily, the shopping guide ladies were all attracted by Yami Hu s voice and Jerry Xiao s movements were fast, so there was no one who noticed what they had just done … Jerry Xiao quickly unlocked the door to the dressing room.
The space in the locker room wasn’t too small to accommodate one Zoey, but with his long arms and legs, there was no room to move. It is not crowded to accommodate a Zoey, but he has long arms and legs, and when he stands here, there is no space left for him to move around. Zoey nervously stood against the wall, and his long arms were propped up on both sides of her body, and he prostrated himself, and his eyes stared at her, as if they hadn’t seen each other for a long, long time. The deep, ghostly pupils were filled with danger.
Zoey even paused for breath. Her eyes didn’t dare meet his, only landing carefully on his chest. He was wearing so little, a shirt and a thin windbreaker. No different from what he’d worn in Arabia.
Doesn’t he know that winter in this city is bitterly cold? How dare he still wear such little! His physical fitness simply didn’t allow him to toss himself around like this!
“What are you … doing here all of a sudden?” She heard her voice, a little unsteady.
The two were so close that his scent just flooded her nostrils in a sheer stream. It made her remember the out-of-control night he’d had with her the night before. His body heat, his madness, and even the fierce, almost violent force and great satisfaction when he possessed her were all reflected so clearly in her memory. She couldn’t help but breathe heavily and blush slightly.
Hearing him speak slowly above her head, his voice raspy, every word he uttered seemed to surge with intense emotion. “I didn’t think I’d show up here so soon either. I thought I could be generous enough to give you at least a week, no, three days at the most. But then I realized that I simply couldn’t do it!”
Zoey was completely shocked by his words. She looked up at him, the bottom of her eyes as transparent as if they were drenched in water. His eyes, on the other hand, were so deep, like the ocean, with its wild tides.
What did he mean, exactly, by his words?
“I want to see you!” He said those four words bluntly, frankly. That serious, that solemn. One by one, the words were like boulders hitting the lake of her heart, and the entire surface of the lake could no longer be still.
She pursed her lips and shook her head carelessly, “I’m so messed up right now, don’t talk to me about this …”
She shuddered at the thought of what Sea Gu had said to her that night. She had no confidence in him, and even less in herself! Eight months ago, she had been unable to attract him, and now, who was she to think that she could conclude that he was genuinely in love with her?
“Zoey!” Jerry Xiao’s big, hot palms, respectively, clasped her arms, opened his lips to say something, but heard Yami Hu’s voice from outside the door …
“Zoey ? Eh? Where did it go?”
“It was clearly just here.” The shopping guide lady said.
…
“I’m going out, my mom is looking for me.” Zoey tried to break away from Jerry Xiao’s shackles. But he wouldn’t let go and bent his head to look at her, “Your mom wants to marry you off to your brother?”
There was a hardness in his tone that he couldn’t hide. Making Zoey freeze, she tilted her head, “You heard that?”
Of course! And, he heard it all loud and clear. “What do you think?” He looked straight at her, as if he wanted to look into her heart. Zoey’s heart was beating extremely fast, it was a terrible thing, obviously she didn’t have to explain herself to him, but, the words that came out, were completely out of her brain’s control.
“Since you heard what my mom said, you must have heard what I said too.” Her voice was thin and soft. Her hand fell gently on his arm, and the steady stream of heat had her brain in a bit of a knot.
Yes, he did hear! She hadn’t said yes, and, quite clearly, had refused! He asked this question more than he wanted to hear her tell herself in person. The corners of his lips, raised up, a faint smile haloed under his eyes, “Know your answer.”
“… I’m going out, so let go. I’ll be anxious if my mom can’t find it.” She struggled a little.
“I’ll walk you out.”
“No! No!” She waved her hand in reaction. She really wasn’t sure what kind of strong reaction her mother would have to seeing him. “I’m going to go out first, and you can come out when my mom and I leave.”
His eyes, darkened, very, very dark. But what could be done? Some mistakes are made by oneself. The result, naturally, is their own to bear.
The palm of his hand slid down Zoey’s arm gently. Zoey spun around and was about to leave when she hit the lock on the locker room, but her elbow was pulled from behind. Her whole body was suddenly turned over to face him. Her back was pressed against the wall.
In the front, looking at her eyes, clearly flashing thick possessive desire. “You …” Zoey panicked words, just before the exit, lips will be blocked by him. Zoey was stunned, the taut strings in the brain, as if in this moment completely broken.
Lips and teeth, were taken away completely. He kissed in a domineering manner, but he couldn’t hide that tenderness. She was continuously defeated, not daring to respond.
Zoey was like a trapped animal, and eventually, there wasn’t even a last ounce of struggle left. She went completely limp in the crook of his arm, letting him kiss her deeply, letting him seduce her into responding …
Really, all messed up …
That night, if it was a mistake, later on, I’m afraid it would be a mistake again and again. And she, too, had really sunk and fallen. Obviously, I’m afraid it will be difficult to pull herself out …
The cell phone suddenly vibrated, and Zoey abruptly came to her senses, pushing Jerry Xiao away, her breath still panting. The entire small space was tainted with ambiguity. He released her lips, but still propped his arm against the door panel.
Pulling out her cell phone, she saw that it was her mother’s call. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead, “I really have to go, get out of the way!” If she didn’t leave, she would definitely wear out.
Jerry Xiao gave her a deep look, and then, in the end, reluctantly removed his hand from the door panel. Another heavy look at her, “Go out and wear more, it’s cold outside.”
Zoey felt a twitch in her heart and gave him a look that made her want to admonish him with the same words, but she pursed her lips and said nothing. Just pulled the dressing room open a small crack and sidled out.
“Mom, I’m here.” Seeing that her mother was still looking around, she somewhat sheepishly straightened her clothes and called to her.
Yami Hu looked back and saw her, “Eh, where have you been?”
“I … I just went to the side to take a call.” Zoey lowered her head, pretending to ruffle her hair for fear that Yami Hu would see something, her eyes subconsciously glancing at the closed door. He, has not come out.
“I said it, how come all of a sudden the person is gone.” Yami Hu came over, looked at Zoey for a moment, moved his eyes away, then redirected them back and looked at him two more times. Zoey’s heart was beating straight, and he looked at Yami Hu in panic, “How … what’s wrong? Is there something on my face?”
Face can’t even speak in full.
“These lips of yours, they’re watery and tender, like a cherry. Which brand of lip gloss did you put on? It’s quite suitable for you. Go buy another one in a while.”
Lips? She didn’t even wear lip gloss out today. Zoey subconsciously stood up in front of the mirror to look at it, and when she saw her red, swollen, and watery lips, her whole face heated up, and she just felt her lips burning.
This … This is not lip gloss? It’s clearly a mark left after a kiss!
Fortunately, the mother didn’t see anything.
“Mom, just this outfit on you is quite nice, buy it. You don’t need to change either, just wear it back like this.” Zoey didn’t dare to stay any longer and hurriedly pulled out her card and handed it to the waitress, “Please, pay the bill.”
Her eyes were still roving towards the door, and when she saw the door pulling open a thin slit from the inside, she could clearly see those eyes looking towards her as well. Her face heated up and she quickly looked away, Yami Hu always found her strange, “What are you looking at when you keep looking that way?”. .
“Huh? No!” Zoey quickly shook her head, and when she saw Yami Hu’s line of sight also looking over, she had the feeling of being a thief. After swiping her card, she said, “Mom, don’t look, let’s go to the second floor, don’t you want to accompany me to buy clothes?”
“Uh-huh. That’s really all that’s missing right now.” Well, Yami Hu was persuaded by Zoey.
The two people carried the clothes and walked out, Jerry Xiao pulled open the door and walked out of the dressing room. The line of sight looked deeply at her figure disappearing into the elevator, the corner of his lips, rippled with a trace of bitterness.
“Huh? This gentleman, why are you in our dressing room?” The shopper looked at the sudden appearance of him in surprise. A trace of fascination flashed under the other’s eyes when she saw that handsome face.
“Sorry.” Only those two words were uttered in a low voice, and without further ado, he turned to leave.
