“I guess SO?”
Gu Li rested her chin on her hands, sounding somewhat unsure.
While she admittedly had a decent background in architecture, she didn’t think herself a genius. She couldn’t guarantee perfection.
Noting her distant gaze, as though she was daydreaming, Mo Shiting couldn’t help but reach out and flick her forehead lightly.
“Ouch!”
Like a knee-jerk reaction, Gu Li covered her forehead, glaring at him in pretended offence. “What was that for, you brute?”
Having voiced her complaint, she rubbed her forehead again.
Seeing this, Mo Shiting leaned forward over the table towards her.
Surprisingly, her fair and flawless skin did look a bit red. Maybe it was because she was so delicate.
“How about I flick it back for you?”
He brought his handsome face closer to her, so close that the tips of their noses were about to touch.
The warm and masculine scent from him filled the air as she breathed it in. Her heart started beating faster, and she quickly leaned back to put more distance between them.
Yet, with the increased distance, her angle of sight changed as well.
She inadvertently caught sight of his partially opened robe which made her face turn a brighter shade of red.
Crap!
His nakedness was….alluring.
He was doing it on purpose, wasn’t he?
“You… Better tie up your robe.”
She forced herself to look away, resisting the urge to stare at him.
But her wandering eyes wanted to sneak another peek.
Mo Shiting didn’t help the situation. Leaning on the table nonchalantly, his voice was teasing and magnetic, “Aren’t you usually quite bold? Why the sudden shyness today?”
“Ha, and when did I appear shy to you?”
Gu Li turned back to him, defiantly.
“If you’re not shy, then why can’t you look at me?”
“Who says I can’t? I’ll look at you now! I’ll look at you until I’ve seen enough.”
Right, there was something worth a look, wasn’t there?
If he insisted on her looking, then she would openly appreciate him!!!
Spurred on, Gu Li stared intently at his semi-exposed chest.
Wow! He was a typical case of “looks thin in clothes but has muscles underneath”.
With that face and that body, he would devasticting the show business if he entered. What fate would the other male stars have then?
However, she really didn’t want to share him with everyone else.
“Seen enough?”
His big voice low and magnetic, interrupted Gu Li’s thoughts.
She collected herself and scoffed artificially, “There isn’t much to see, you’re far behind others.”
“Others?”
Mo Shiting’s handsome face hardened, “Who else have you seen?”
“The models in the magazines. Their bodies… wow, just wow!”
She appeared to be in awe as she finished talking.
Knowing she was deliberately trying to provoke him, Mo Shiting remarked half-jokingly, “Reality is always true. Wait until you’ve seen it in person.”
In person?
Did he actually suggest that she should see those male models in person?
“Gu Li gritted her teeth, “Fine! Tomorrow I’ll go with my cousin!”
“Yeah, you can go.”
Mo Shiting responded indifferently, “When you come back, I will break your legs.”
Gu Li:
You’re ruthless!
“I’m leaving!”
Noting that it was already late, she got up and started to clean up her pens, papers, and other materials.
Mo Shiting made no attempt to stop her. After she had packed everything ready to leave the study, he suddenly grabbed her hand.
What did he want?
Gu Li’s heart beat faster. Just then, he whispered, “Goodnight.”
After saying that, he let her go.
“Yeah, good night.”
Gu Li pursed her lips, and for some inexplicable reason, felt a little lost.
She thought he would…
As ever, she was obviously overthinking.
“I’ll take you somewhere tomorrow..”
