Love in the Midst of Mistaken Identities

Sure enough, not long later, the door opened. Out rushed a terrified and frantic figure clad in white silk pajamas. She wasn’t even wearing a coat!

Chu Lui opened the car door and pulled Li Manni into the car without saying much. The car reversed at a fast speed and left the Li family’s condominium in a flash. Li Manni stared at the man beside her anxiously. She twisted her fingers, holding them together and separating them continuously. She suddenly realized that she had been crying the moment she saw him, and tears were running down her whole face.

She couldn’t bear to let go of him.

Chu Lui stopped the car and turned around, looking at the beautiful tear-streaked face. His eyes flashed quickly with something—as if this face overlapped with a certain scene in his memory. However, he wasn’t sure if it was Xia Yixuan or Xia Ruoxin.

He attached himself heavily to her lips, putting his hand over her head and kissing her lips hard—even moving the other hand down and under her pajamas. He had not been with a woman for a long time. He respected her and did not want to take her body so easily.

He put his hand on her breast and massaged it hard. She had long aroused his male instinct.

Li Manni could only accept his deep kisses passively. When his huge hands covered her, she gasped suddenly. She had never felt this strange feeling before.

A feeling that made her go crazy.

It made her heart skip a beat.

It made her weak in the knees.

It made her anticipate.

It shook her world.

Yet Chu Lui stopped at this moment. He looked at the woman in his arms very quietly. This expression was really similar, could it be… to Yixuan’s?

He was undoubtedly hot and passionate, but now he was calm, almost not like himself.

His hand left her body at last and moved to her flushed cheeks, telling himself that she needed better. Doing it here was too wrong for her. He always wanted to give her the best of everything, which almost seemed like some sort of redemption. What sin was he atoning for? Who was he trying to appease?

“Tell me. Why are you hiding from me?” He stroked her face lightly with the same calm expression and heart. There seemed to be no woman who could break his perfect calmness.

He was calm when he was happy, and he was calm when he was angry.

Li Manni bit her lip. “I’m sorry…” She put her arms around Chu Lui’s waist, and she realized that she was so aware of his kisses, his temperature, and his breath.

She did not want to leave. Even if she had to do someone wrong, she wouldn’t think of leaving anymore.

“Hmm. You still haven’t answered my question?” Chu Lui’s fingers slid across her cheek more forcefully. His eyes darkened more. It darkened to the point where there was no light left.

“I’m sorry, Lui. I didn’t mean to.” Li Manni closed her eyes. She was stuck in a dilemma, too. “You have a woman who loves you so much by your side. For your sake, she is even willing to let other men…” She didn’t go on, and she really didn’t want to tell him. She was actually scared—scared of the public’s opinion.

“She looked for you?” Chu Lui sat up suddenly, his whole body tense. Even his calm eyes flashed quickly with a trace of crimson bloodlust.
