Chapter 2254: Chapter 2254

Duan Xi held her in his arms, buried his head in her neck, gently breathing in her scent, while his hands softly kneaded her waist.

The soreness in Ruan Jiaojiao’s body was much relieved. Seeing that Duan Xi behind her didn’t speak, she moved slightly in his embrace.

This little movement.

Made her freeze.

"Brother Xi!" She turned her head and called out.

She hadn’t done anything, so why did he...?

"Be good, don’t move." Duan Xi turned his head to plant a kiss on her rosy cheek, his eyes holding a touch of heat.

A man new to desire, who has tasted its pleasures, will often react just by seeing the person he loves, especially when they are embraced like this.

Jiaojiao was soft and let him continue.

How could Ruan Jiaojiao dare to move? Her body was stiff, not daring to budge an inch.

Duan Xi glanced at her funny expression, saying with amusement, "Don’t be afraid, I won’t do anything to you."

Ruan Jiaojiao pouted, giving him a slightly aggrieved look: "That’s what you said to me last night."

He’d promised he’d be gentle, not go overboard, but it was too much to bear; no matter how she pleaded, it was no use.

Duan Xi just smiled, not giving any more assurances because he knew that any promise he made was of no use.

His gaze fell on Ruan Jiaojiao’s phone: "Next time, let’s watch the movie together, just the two of us."

Ruan Jiaojiao hadn’t wanted to go out anyway, so she agreed to next time.

Ruan Jiaojiao initially thought they would rest for a bit at noon and return in the evening, but in fact, they stayed in this villa alone for three days and three nights.

During these three days and nights, Duan Xi didn’t go to the company, and they only ate meals delivered from outside.

At first, Duan Xi restrained himself, just holding Ruan Jiaojiao during the day to watch TV, play some games, or read books, and only did those indescribable things at night.

But later, he realized Ruan Jiaojiao could gradually handle it, so he let himself enjoy it thoroughly, to the point that by the end, Ruan Jiaojiao didn’t even have the strength to get out of bed.

Ruan Jiaojiao was extremely aggrieved, crying many times that Duan Xi no longer loved her or cared for her, but the more she pouted, the more aggrieved she acted, the more she cried, making Duan Xi indulge even more fiercely. She thought that if her bones weren’t too hard, he’d probably chew them up and swallow them!

The day they left the villa, Ruan Jiaojiao was like a withered cabbage, while Duan Xi was like a well-fed wolf spirit, full of energy and vigor.

It made for a stark contrast.

Duan Xi had grown up with the Ruan Family all these years, among the nine Ruan brothers, actually none had seriously confronted him, including Ruan Jie.

Yet, except for Ruan Hao, the nine brothers all harbored an inexplicable dread towards him, always having a hunch that they couldn’t beat him.

This included Ruan Jianguo as well, although he usually found Duan Xi unpleasing in his comments, they were just words, never actions.

But this time, when Duan Xi took away his beloved daughter for three days and nights, Mr. Ruan was genuinely furious, especially seeing his little cabbage obviously ravaged by the brat; every breath he exhaled seemed combustible!

Even the faces of Ruanlin Family and Shu Jiao looked unpleasant.

Ruan Jiaojiao was annoyed too, intentionally choosing not to speak up for him. After eating Ruanlin Family’s lovingly prepared lunch, she went back to her room to rest, trying to make up for the sleep she missed those three days.

Meanwhile downstairs, Ruan Jianguo had already struck Duan Xi’s leg with a stick.

Duan Xi didn’t dodge, just endured it.

Ruan Jianguo was even angrier, pointing at him: "Why don’t you dodge?"
