Mr. Fang's Feisty Mistress

Chapter 198 Last Hour

Fang Bingwen's gaze lingered on her as it softened.

"I still have to take my bath, I'm sweaty." He explained before turning to leave.

Instantly, Zhang Liling felt her chest warm up. She was happy with this sweet side of him he was willing to let her have a taste of.

"I wished I could enjoy more of this... Mr. Fang is no nice," she mumbled to herself with a small smile playing at the corner of her lips as her gaze followed him till he disappeared through the inner door.

It took Fang Bingwen 15 minutes to finish showering and changing into his work outfit befire stepping out.

He was still trying to fix his wristwatch when he noticed that Zhang Liling was laying on the other side of his bed.

Ignoring her, he walked in proper with his shoes making a contrasting sound against the tiled floor, but when he came upto the part the ash-coloured rug covered, the sound disappeared.

In seeing him, Zhang Liling adjusted her position on his bed as her eyes followed to the nightstand.

While thinking that he was very fast in dressing up, another different thought couldn't help but to occupy her mind. 'But I wanted to spend time with him.'

Unaware of her thoughts, Mr. Fang opened the first drawer to take out the small black box inside it before taking a step back to the side of the bed.

Finally securing the silver watch on his wrist, he looked up to meet Zhang Liling's gaze. Without a word, he passed the box to her.

"Here is a small gift for you," he said as the left corner of his lips moved inwards.

"A-A gift for m-me?" She stuttered with widened eyes before reaching out with two hands to accept the gift from him.

"Mmmm..." He hummed in response as he retracted his hand back into the front pocket of his pant, allowing her to have the box all to herself.

This was the first time he was gifting her, and he wasn't sure she was going to like it even if he had guessed what would suit her.

Zhang Liling looked happy as she received the boxy from him. Without thinking, she opened the box to reveal her gift as she heard him explain.

"I wanted to gift it to you a day before our date, that's why is yet to be wrapped."

Fang Bingwen had thought of getting her something even thought he was tempted to go back on it because of her little actions that annoyed the hell out of him.

But on a second thought, he didn't want to act childishly, so he went on to get the gift for her. Today, he had planned on taking it to work so he could ask Bolin to wrap it for him but alas, fate toll a turn, leaving him with no option than to give it to her like that.

If he had gone on with his second idea to delay giving her the box, he wasn't sure of when her return to be hence, he thought it to be wise to gift her the item immediately.

Seeing the simple rose gold necklace with a half-moon dangling at the center.

"Wow! It's beautiful..." Zhang Liling exclaimed as her trembling hand picked up the necklace to gently run her fingers through it before proceeding to take it out from the box.

"Do you like it?" Mr. Fang asked as he stared at her intently, seriously watching every expression that flashed across her face.

"Yes," Zhang Liling replied without sparing him a glance as all her focus was on the delicate necklace in her hands.

"I love it," she added as her eyes shone brightly. Slowly, she spread the chain on her hands to take a proper look at it.

Instantly, Mr. Fang's racing her heart ceased as his tensed shoulders slowly relaxed.

If she didn't like it, he would have felt bad for having giving her a parting gift that wasn't suitable to her taste.

Had it been she wasn't traveling, and she said she didn't like it, he would have directly taking her to a jewelry store to pick any one of her choice.

Fortunately, he didn't have to go through all that hassle.

"Mr. Fang, please help me out it around my neck," Zhang Liling said while stretching the hand that held the beautiful necklace.

Without much thought, Fang Bingwen took it from her as she turned her back to him before moving her hair aside so he could have full access to her neck.

Unclasping the hook, he brought his hands over her head. Feeling the cold chain gently brush the small exposed part of her chest, Zhang Liling felt her heart warm up.

As if that was not enough, she felt the tips of his warm fingers touched her neck as he struggled to fasten the hook.

Zhang Liling was not sure that Mr. Fang knew the effect he had on her. She could almost picture his knitted brows while trying to secure the necklace around her neck.

Thinking this far, a soft chuckle escape from her lips, surprising the man struggling behind her.

"What's funny?" His frustrated voice asked.

Just like she was thinking, that was exactly how Mr. Fang's face looked. His brows were currently knotted in frustration.

Clasping a hand over her mouth to control the sound of her laughter, she asked, "You haven't done this before?"

Eyeing her, he turned his gaze back to his fingers. "Who told you that?" He asked.

"My guess..."

"You lie." He said as he retracted his hands after firmly securing the hook.

Feeling the absence of his fingers and the fiddling of the metal on her chest, she allowed her hair to fall back before turning to face him.

"Thank you, Mr. Fang!" She said wih a smile that reached her eyes.

"It's no trouble. You said you wanted to spend time with me, is there something you want to talk about?" He asked as he settled next to her.

"Not really, I just wanted to lie with you in bed." Zhang Liling confeseed while looking him in the eye.

Mr. Fang was only a moment taken aback by her request. She was indeed brazen and it looked like she had become more like that since the last few hours.
