Chapter 400: Chapter 400: Giving Her Water
A searing heat suddenly pressed against her lips, and the soft sensation made Chi Enen tremble all over. Wherever it touched felt as if it had been electrified, burning straight to her core, her heartbeat couldn’t help but speed up along with the current.
Warm tongue pried open her lips and teeth, and with a whimper from Chi Enen, she felt cool water flowing into her mouth…
Her throat was exceedingly dry, and as it was moistened by the water, she couldn’t help but want more.
Chi Enen instinctively closed her eyes to savor the sweet freshness of the water…
As her soft little tongue occasionally touched hers, it was as though a fire was about to ignite in Li Beijue’s lower abdomen. He suddenly regretted his decision to offer water this way.
Chi Enen was clearly tormenting him!
It was even more unbearable than being stabbed with a knife!
He wished he could instantly press her down on the bed and physically teach her never to provoke a man like this during a kiss.
But…
His gaze fell upon the little lady’s still somewhat pale face, and that surge of impulse was forcefully suppressed!
She had just awakened from a serious injury, so he endured!
However, before enduring any further, he could still reclaim a small consolation.
Li Beijue patiently waited for her to finish the water he had held, and then with his left hand cradling the back of her head, his thin lips parted to envelop her pale lips, deepening the kiss.
“Mm.”
His kissing skills were superb, and exceedingly gentle as he lavished her with tenderness regained.
The paleness on Chi Enen’s cheeks gradually gave way to a rosy flush, finally bringing some color back to her face.
Li Beijue, worried she couldn’t take much more, although longing to meld her into his very being, reluctantly let her go. Indeed, Chi Enen was almost breathless; had Li Beijue not released her, she might have truly been unable to breathe. She panted heavily, her formerly pale lips now flushed with color.
Li Beijue’s heart, too, gradually filled with contentment, settling the heart that had been hanging over the edge for all these days in this very moment!
“Do you want more water?” His voice was husky, restrained.
Chi Enen, dazed from the kiss, blinked several times, came back to her senses, and found her voice again, “Ah… yes.”
Li Beijue poured her a cup of water again, testing the temperature before handing it to her. This time he didn’t transfer the water with his mouth. Chi Enen took the water cup, gulping down a large volume, and with the hydration, her parched throat felt much less painful.
Her senses gradually returned, and she handed the water cup back to the man beside the bed. She asked hesitantly, “Li Beijue, how long have I slept?”
“Two days.” He paused, his voice clouded with haze, “Plus the time you were kidnapped, a total of four days and three nights.”
That long…
“And Baby Chi… he’s all right, isn’t he?” Chi Enen exclaimed, attempting to get up.
Li Beijue held her down with a fierce growl, “You foolish woman! Just speak, why are you flailing about!”
After shouting, he continued with a taut face, “He stayed by your side one night and fell asleep from exhaustion. He’s next door, Huo Yi is taking care of him. Don’t worry.”
He truly wanted to extract this woman’s heart and see if it was grown askew!
Why didn’t she ask about his past four days?
Didn’t she care about how he had spent these four days at all!
Li Beijue was reminded of the question Han Qifeng had asked her outside the hospital, and her silence at the time.
His heart fiercely clenched!
Chi Enen might not like him, she might only be with him grudgingly because of Baby Chi. So she didn’t ask him because she truly didn’t care! The person she cared about was only Chi Jingchen!
