Please Confess to me

Chapter 44

It was almost 8:30 when Shen Xi finally came downstairs. Usually, Shen Xi would get up at 7:10, wash up, go for a run, then have breakfast at 8:00 a.m. The only time she would get up at 8:30 a.m. was if she was sick, or...ahem.

Mrs. Zhang gave her an ambiguous smile and Shen Xi wanted to smack a certain animal that kept her up all night.

"Good morning." When Su Hang saw his wife sit down on the table, he immediately greeted her.

Shen Xi smacked his outstretched hand away and crabbily replied: "Hurry and finish eating so you can go to work. Stop pawing at me."

"Nn." By now, Su Hang could be considered to have some experience with this. His wife generally had a bad mood the morning after a session of love-making. Su Hang figured he had been too much last night. Cough...he really tried hard to restrain himself, but Su Hang sadly acknowledged that his self-control seemed to be inadequate. Nevermind. By the time he gets off from work, his wife would've forgiven him.

Shen Xi started breakfast and drank some porridge. Truthfully, if it weren't for the fact that she wanted to eat breakfast with Su Hang, she would've stayed in bed. Su Hang stuttered through breakfast, then finally picked up his car keys to go to work. On weekdays, Shen Xi would usually walk him to the door and see him off, but today, she was in a bad mood and didn't want to send the animal off.

Su Hang stood across the dining table and silently looked at Shen Xi, waiting. It was hard to ignore such an obvious gaze.

"What?" Shen Xi had no words. "Do you have something to say?"

"I...I want a goodbye kiss." Su Hang asked, feeling hesitant and embarrassed.

"...." Shen Xi looked at the man feeling almost amused at his overly-cautious manner.

Su Hang thought that Shen Xi's silence mean that she didn't want to. Feeling wronged, he said: "You...you told me yesterday that you would do whatever I asked."

Shen Xi put down the spoon she was holding, then hooked a finger towards the man.

Su Hang immediately shuffled to Shen Xi's side and considerably crouched down to place his face closer to her.

Shen Xi gave him a quick kiss and perfunctorily said: "Alright, go to work."

Su Hang straightened with a content expression on his face. However, just as he was about to leave the room, he heard Shen Xi mutter: "Just like a house-pet, ah."

Su Hang felt like he had to reply, so he turned back around. He bent down and placed his hands on Shen Xi's chair, trapping her between his arms. Without any warning, he bowed his head and kissed Shen Xi's red lips, robbing her of her breath. Seeing Shen Xi's stunned expression when he moved away, Su Hang resolutely tried to clear his name. "A pet wouldn't kiss you like that, nor would it make you unable to get up in the morning."

Shen Xi blinked, then blinked again. She couldn't believe that such sultry words came out of Su Hang's mouth.

"I'll come back for dinner after work." Su Hang kissed Shen Xi's forehead and before Shen Xi could snap out of her stupor, he turns away and leaves.

After some time, Shen Xi finally came back to her senses. She murmured to herself: "I feel like something's wrong with this, ah."

In the Su Company building.

Li QingYuan stepped out of the elevator into a familiar room. He approached the two beauties of the secretarial department and warmly greeted them: "Hello, beauties, did you miss me?"

"Lawyer Li, you haven't visited in a while." Lilith laughed.

"I guess there were too many beauties outside that he couldn't spare the time for us." Zhu Lin chimed from the side.
