Chapter 2065 - 2067: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi 68
Chapter 2065: Chapter 2067: Jiang Nuan vs. Fu Yi 68
So it wasn’t a multiple-choice question; she only had one option.
Jiang Nuan: "Okay. Half a year then."
Fu Yi saw her agree so readily, looking as if she couldn’t wait to get rid of him, and his good mood vanished. He lifted Jiang Nuan’s chin and said, "Nuannuan, if I didn’t know you didn’t have a boyfriend, seeing you this eager I’d think you had someone you liked."
Uh.
His breath brushed her face, and Jiang Nuan instinctively leaned back, her heart skipping a beat, her almond eyes unconsciously avoiding his, "That has nothing to do with you!"
But Fu Yi pressed closer, his elbow resting on the sofa, trapping her in his arms. He lowered his head, one hand pinching Jiang Nuan’s chin to keep her from escaping, his thin lips close to her ear, whispering, "You just agreed to treat me as your suitor. Whether you have someone you like does matter to me!"
His voice was grainy, hoarse, and low, like an elegant cello played at a leisurely pace.
Jiang Nuan felt a wave of heat blowing past her ears, goosebumps rising instantly all over her body, uncontrollably, "Stand up first, talk properly."
Fu Yi placed his hand on her shoulder, a sly smile on his thin lips, "Are you afraid of me getting close to you?"
"..."
Jiang Nuan seriously suspected he was doing it on purpose!
Deliberately teasing her!
She even suspected that this man knew every time he got close, it made her heart race, unable to think calmly, so every time he spoke he intentionally leaned in just to see her flustered.
Fu Yi half-closed his eyes, seeing the person in his arms fall silent. Satisfied, he let go and stood back, as she requested, his tone relaxed, "Don’t forget you agreed to our six-month agreement. For these six months, you can’t reject me, treat me like an ordinary man pursuing you, give me a chance to chase you. Once we return to Capital City, we’ll likely have many intimate interactions like today, Nuannuan, be mentally prepared."
—Once we return to Capital City, we’ll likely have many intimate interactions like today, Nuannuan, be mentally prepared.
Jiang Nuan could hear her heartbeat; she realized she’d been tricked. But Fu Yi hadn’t forced her to agree, she chose to accept his terms. An adult’s promise can’t be changed on a whim, but the intense gaze on her was so tangible she lacked even the courage to meet it, bowing her head in annoyance, murmuring softly, "Hmm" as a response...
Ah, she’s such an idiot, might as well be dead!
*
After that day, Jiang Nuan’s life calmed down.
Just as Fu Yi said, he threw himself entirely into his work. Even when they met at the hospital, he just greeted her, seeming as if he hadn’t been the one proposing to be her suitor for six months!
And since the day he acknowledged their relationship to others, Jiang Nuan found her work smoother. Xu Qingrong, though still not fond of her, no longer dared to make trouble as before, and others found various ways to show her care and concern.
Days flowed by like water.
