Chapter 371

Qiao Anhao’s intuition told her that the events that were about to follow had last happened the night of Lu Jinnian’s birthday . Unconsciously, she bit her soft tongue in anxiety and anticipation .

Lu Jinnian’s gaze turned tender and deep as he raised his hands to caress her face . Bending his head slightly, he covered her lips .

Lu Jinnian’s actions were abrupt, only when Qiao Anhao felt moisture and numbness on her lips did she realize what was happening . Her lashes quivered and her hands gripped onto his collar . When she shut her eyes, she felt his tongue enter her mouth, sending her mind ablaze .

The night was dark, the candles burning silently . The windows weren’t closed, and the cool wind blew in, sending the balloons on the balcony flying and bringing in a breath of fresh air .

The world seemed to have stopped . Their frantic breaths, rapid heartbeats, and soft moans filled the air .

Gradually, the hand Qiao Anhao had used to grip his collar turned limp with sweat .

As their kiss deepened, they became intoxicated by each other’s body, trying desperately to tighten their bond .

Lu Jinnian placed a hand behind her head, deepening their kiss, and with the other, he started searching for the zip on her dress .

Qiao Anhao’s dress had a complicated zip . After searching desperately for a while, he still couldn’t find it . He started to feel impatient, tugging her dress upwards in frustration . The suddenness caused Qiao Anhao to stumble backwards, kicking over two candles .

The glass cup that held the candles shattered, sending a shrill noise through the air, startling their senses back into them . Lu Jinnian struggled to force himself away from her, his breathing rugged and breathless .

He almost forgot that her abortion was less than a month ago, her body was not going to be able to take it .

He took in several deep breaths, before lowering his head once again to kiss her lips one last time . Mustering up all the self control he possessed to suppress his inner flames, he said in a hoarse voice, “Do you want some cake?” 

Just a second ago they had been kissing passionately, now he had asked her if she wanted cake? Qiao Anhao wasn’t able to process the abruptness of the situation; her brain was left in a daze . After a long while, she shook her head .

“Let me get Madam Chen to put it in the fridge, you can have some tomorrow . ” Lu Jinnian spoke in a low deep voice that was almost a moan . He shut his eyes for a while more before pushing Qiao Anhao away, creating a safe distance between the two of them . He gazed at her before tidying her clothes and instructing her to take a bath .

Just a moment ago there had been a fiery situation and now it had been put to an abrupt stop; Lu Jinnian wasn’t the only one feeling unsatisfied and frustrated . With low spirits and a heavy heart, Qiao Anhao hesitated slightly but decided to hold on to her dignity . In the end, she was just not able to harass him to continue what he had started . . . Unwillingly, she turned and dragged herself to the bathroom .
