BXBX NOVEL Chapter 288 - Is suddenly interrupted
Chapter 288 - Is suddenly interrupted
His warm breath tickled her face. Even his self-control was slowly withering away, he still asked her for \'permission\'.
"Young Miss, will you not push me away if I do something \'impolite\'?" he whispered in a dumb voice. Linfeng\'s gaze traveled down to her cherry lips. Those lips were particularly charming today. Red, supple, and glossy.
In Xiong Zhi\'s vision, the man\'s handsome face was becoming bigger as he inched closer. Her heart pounded loudly. She felt anticipation rise in her heart for what would be coming.
She slowly closed her eyes, hoarsely whispering, "I-Impolite... l-like w-what?"
"Like—" \'this.\'
However, Linfeng was not able to finish. Just when their lips were about to touch, his expression suddenly changed. He quickly straightened, took her shoulder, and pushed her gently behind him as he turned to face the entrance.
Xiong Zhi was stunned as she saw her surroundings change in a whirl, from his face to suddenly his back.
"..."
Eh?
Eh??
Her precious, sweet moment was suddenly interrupted!
She grabbed his arm, tilted slightly, and poked her head out from behind Linfeng to ask what happened. But she was just about to open her mouth when she saw the person standing at the entrance of the shrine.
"..."
Guan Gao Huan\'s lips curved up, seeing that he finally got the attention of the pair. However, his smile was far from his gentle one. It was a forced smile filled with coldness.
He walked forward into the shrine and spoke loudly, destroying the peaceful air of the shrine.
"What a coincidence to meet you two here. It seems like fate wants to cross our path together. What do you say, Young Miss Xiong Zhi?"
His steady steps rang inside the shrine as he went directly to the altar. He gazed up at the depiction in front of him.
"…"
This bastard…!
Xiong Zhi did not answer and just stared coldly at him. This was the bug who interrupted her hard-won intimate alone time with Linfeng!
That. Precious. Moment!
Her. First. Kiss!
It was almost within her reach, yet it still slipped away.
Xiong Zhi was so angry that she felt the urge to push this hateful man down to the raging stream below. She would rather be called a murderer and kill this man right now, than to see him sway more in front of her in the future.
This man was truly the nemesis of her life!
Her last bits of fear for this beast was suddenly pushed to the back of her mind. She balefully gave him a murderous glare.
"What are you doing here?" Her cold voice sounded like it came from the depths of hell.
Hell has no fury like a woman scorned.
Beside her, Linfeng shot the same cold glare at the man who had shamelessly interrupted their two-person world.
This snake definitely did it on purpose.
Because he was immersed in their \'own\' world, he did not take notice of him when he crossed the bridge or when he stood there in the entrance of the shrine. When only Gao Huan purposely let his presence out that he felt the chilling gaze on his surrounding.
Guan Gao Huan did not answer. He lit up a few joss sticks and put it on the altar. He then looked back at the pair.
Seeing both of their eyes filled with revulsion, especially the cold and annoyed eyes of a certain someone, Guan Gao Huan could no longer maintain the fake smile.
"..."
His face turned chilly.
It seems like the rumor and the information he had gotten was true.
"Aren\'t we here in a shrine? A shrine recommended by the town. Like you, I am here to pray." Yet Guan Gao Huan did not kneel nor bow.
"Rather than me… How about you? It seems like praying was not your only business here," Guan Gao Huan coldly said. "Am I right, \'butler\' Linfeng?" He looked at them with a meaningful smile that did not seem like a smile.
"It\'s none of your business," Linfeng coldly answered. He turned to his Young Miss and protectively put his arm around her shoulders. "Let\'s go, Young Miss."
Xiong Zhi withdrew her gaze and nodded at Linfeng. She also did not want to look at this person any longer.
Seeing the couple turn to walk away, Guan Gao Huan was silent for a moment, pushing down the anger in his heart.
He schooled his face back to it\'s usual gentle fa?ade. Then, he called out.
"Xiong Zhi." His voice sounded a bit imploring. It was very subtle, though. And if one looked closely, his eyes were very cold.
Xiong Zhi\'s goosebumps popped out from her skin. She looked at him in aversion. She did not want her name to be uttered by him at all. Perhaps, if it was another girl, they would be fooled by his antics and soften their heart to accommodate him, after all, he was really good at it.
But she was someone who knew his true nature and had faced a tragic fate caused by him. She would never be fooled by him in this lifetime.
She only felt disgust welling up from within her.
"Third Young Master Guan, I\'m not someone you can casually call by name. Mind your manners," Xiong Zhi said coldly. She held Linfeng\'s hand and pulled him to leave the shrine.
Guan Gao Huan\'s golden brown eyes flashed darkly.
His chilling eyes stared coldly at the pair who was leaving. When the pair was finally out of his sight, he unleashed the murderous aura he had been holding. His furious eyes glanced at the joss sticks. He then kicked it and stomped it on the wooden floor. He just stopped when the joss sticks were reduced to ashes.
He inhaled deeply.
This was not going well. He needs to get closer to Xiong Zhi and confidently say to that man that he have her. But that young miss has a strong rejection towards him.
What he even do that makes her so repulsive of him?
Gao Huan covered his other eye.
The intimate scene he had saw earlier replayed in his mind.
The young miss of Xiong, his fiancee, clearly has feelings towards that dog. Getting his fiance\'s affection from that man might be hard, especially that dog knew how to bite.
Gao Huan closed his eyes. No matter, she would still end up with him.
