Chapter 740 - Someone Better.
Soon the air around got intensified as Feng Shufen stopped Li Xue in between her actions with a heavy expression of discomfort. His eyes, getting all dark with desire.
"You are such a torture" He spatted out next before getting her laid on the bed and then bringing half of his body over hers while keeping his foot still on the floor. His sensual greys not leaving her ambers even for once, bringing his lips over hers again. Their lips ran in sync as his hands went to soothe the skin on her arms, from shoulders to fingers, before reaching her waist then down her thighs, taking his sweet time on every inch. Feeling every inch of her.
Li Xue's senses got paused as she stiffened. At this moment the only thing her sense was able to sense was her hard thumping heartbeats inside her chest. A weird nervousness filled with great anticipation … that was making her toes curl every other moment feeling the man's breath and touch over herself. Everywhere he touched, she felt that inch getting alive with another heart that thumped and pumped.
Was this the time? Was she … But …
Her heart thumped louder at the thought, slightly shivering on its own. As if sensing her nervousness already, Feng Shufen paused for a moment, retracting his face a little away to look at her expressions. Her eyes were already closed and he could see her shivering a little under his touches. Her chest heaving up and down in strong breathing.
Though Li Xue was his first and the last, Feng Shufen was not a saint in his actions. He knew his moves well and right. But seeing her like that he could not help but ask, "Uncomfortable?"
Li Xue's eyes opened at once on his askance. Was it so evident? Though she was uncomfortable, her discomfort was not because of his closeness or his actions. His closeness was only bringing her nervousness filled with anticipation. But this discomfort … She herself didn't know why she was like that.
Why only at this time she was having so many self doubtful questions in her heart? Why only now she was having a feeling like she was not proper for the man who was so perfect to get any woman in this world? She didn't know why …
Seeing her not saying a word, the man took the cue on his own as he immediately got himself up, straightening his posture away from the woman. "It's fine!" He said, his voice coming a little hoarse but still melodic as ever.
But this time his melody was not soothing her heart rather was turning her world upside down. Her brows wrinkled as she saw him suddenly changing both his mood and action. For once in her eyes, he looked aloof to her. Maybe it was just her guilt that made him look like that but yeah, at the moment he looked really distant to her. And she knew it was her fault to push him away.
Feng Shufen didn't see when her eyes turned teary. It was his back facing her so he failed to see how remorseful her expression looked. If he had seen her then he would have known how bad she was blaming herself again for not being good to him.
"I will go and take a shower first." He said before taking his step back in the direction of the bathroom. His own thoughts, becoming a mess, thinking about the things that happened moments before between them. Maybe he took the cue wrong earlier. She might be just playing around and …
Before he could even think any further or take his steps away, a desperate wrap of arms rounded around his waist, pulling him back like he was her only life support. "Please don't go anywhere. I was at fault this time … nope, every time. I was at fault. I am sorry."
Feng Shufen didn't understand what happened suddenly. What made her burst out like this? But one thing that he was sure of was that she was hurt. She was hurt to an extent where she was already sobbing and crying. He felt a twisting heartache in his chest as he tried to turn and soothe her emotions.
But this time, her hold was too hard on him. However, he was trying to move, she was holding him in a way where he could not move and walk away. What was she thinking? Did she think that he was abandoning her?
His features froze as he couldn't even imagine that thought in his wildest and craziest dream.
"Please don't go, after getting angry with me. I am sorry I could not control my thoughts. I thought that maybe … that maybe …" He heard her say.
"Maybe, what?" If he wasn't wrong about her he was already sure that what could be running in her head at the moment. And knowing it well, to some extent he was also furious. His voice was evidencing his fury.
Hearing the two–word question, Li Xue paused for a moment. She didn't miss his tone which further verified her thoughts. He was angry. Definitely, upset with her. But what she didn't know was the real reason behind his anger.
"I thought maybe I am not proper. Maybe that you deserve someone better than me. Someone who is still …" She didn't know how to continue any further with her words. Though it might not matter to some people but to a woman who knew her man was like the cream of the crop; can get anyone he picks … even these small stuff bothered her. After all, a woman's body doesn't remain the same after delivering the baby.
Her words further amplified the emotions of the man. His face turned darker than it was before as Li Xue felt a chilly aura exuding from him. She doesn't understand what happened suddenly, nor did she have any brains to put into it at the moment. What she only cared at the moment was –
"Please don't abandon me as everyone did. I …"
But before she could even register or realize her next words, one shove was made in a direction that made her fall back on the bed and the man came attacking her with the desire that cleared all her self-doubt in the next moment.
"Did I ever say that I want someone better that's not you?"
