Chapter 2119: Never Again

Auntie Wu sorted the medicine, handed the warm water to the Old Lady, then passed the pills to her one by one.

“Ever since Miss Song moved into the house, as long as Third Young Master is around, she always ends up hurt. When the Song family comes to pick her up, that mix of old and new injuries on her is going to be hard to explain.”

“What’s there to explain.”

The Old Lady let out a cold snort. “The house is covered in surveillance. If they dare make trouble, I’ll throw the footage in their faces.”

She finished the medicine but there was still half a cup of water left. She’d meant to hand it to Auntie Wu, yet raised her hand and took it back, drinking the remaining half as well.

The thirst was gone, but the fire in her chest hadn’t gone out.

“Tell everyone at home, if she throws another tantrum, don’t bother with her. Just stand by and watch.”

Auntie Wu nodded. “The rain’s getting heavier, I’ll go close the windows.”

The Old Lady propped herself up with her cane and slowly walked inside. She put on her glasses; she’d read a bit before sleep.

Auntie Wu helped her fluff the pillow, left the lamp by the bed on, and then went out.

On the other side, Bo Yanching eased the car to a slower speed, pulled over, turned on the right indicator, then took a paper bag from the back seat. He unfastened his seat belt and first took off his wet shirt.

Nan Jiaojiao stared straight at him. “Your pants are wet too, aren’t they? Change everything while you’re at it.”

Bo Yanching glanced sideways at her with a laugh and tossed the shirt over her head.

Nan Jiaojiao yanked it off in two or three swipes, then looked back over. Bo Yanching had already pulled on a clean shirt; he started buttoning from the second button, and had already fastened two.

She grumbled in displeasure, “Beast! You let me look but won’t let me touch!”

Bo Yanching neatly did up all the buttons, tucked the hem into his slacks, then suddenly turned, unfastened her seat belt, wrapped an arm around her waist and pressed her back into the seat. Their noses were almost touching as he lowered his voice, “Baby, we agreed you wouldn’t tease me outside. My self-control isn’t that great.”

Nan Jiaojiao pressed her lips together, lifted her eyes, seeking out his pair of dark pupils. “There’s no one else in the car.”

He stared at her without blinking.

Nan Jiaojiao just felt the tip of her heart being tickled, “It’s still raining outside.”

Bo Yanching had no restraint left at all; he lowered his head and kissed her.

His kissing was getting more and more skilled. Even when he’d already kissed her so dizzy she was shrinking back into the seat, he could still bite her lips and draw her back, specifically not letting her hide, catching her hand and placing it at his shirt collar, personally undoing one button so she could play with his collarbone.

Nan Jiaojiao’s mouth was cheeky, but her body was honest as hell. He got more and more carried away, and she let out a couple of soft whimpers, tilting her head to escape his kiss.

Her breathing wouldn’t steady, and when he leaned in again to keep kissing, she threw her arms around his neck, hugged his shoulders tight, rested her chin on his shoulder, and only then dared to let out that breath.

“Enough, no more…”

Bo Yanching stayed quiet for two seconds, then held her close, half his face nuzzling into her hair. “Still going to misbehave?”

“I wouldn’t dare…”

Nan Jiaojiao had just been thoroughly cherished; her voice was soft and obedient.

She was like a drug—once he touched her, Bo Yanching couldn’t quit.

“It’s like this every time. I’m burning up all over and you refuse to take responsibility. How about we skip the barbecue?”

“No way!”

Nan Jiaojiao practically wanted to raise both hands in protest, and Bo Yanching pulled her back in again.

He could hold her entire back with one hand; his knuckles were sharply defined as his palm wrapped around her shoulder, kneading and patting. “You, you…you!”

He was painfully strung tight, yet still had to let her go. “Don’t mess around anymore, or I really will lose it.”
