Chapter 161: She Was Having a Hard Time
Unlike the last time, he was kissing her gently this time.
He explored the sweetness of her lips at a leisurely pace, his movements gentle and regular. After a while, Xu Wanwan could no longer resist.
She felt as if she was a cloud floating in the sky, with no place to rest. She could only lie on top of the man.
When the kiss ended, she seemed to have forgotten who she was. She slowly reached out her hand, grabbed the man’s neck, and responded in an unfamiliar manner.
Li Jingran’s eyes lit up. He pressed the back of the girl’s head with his big palm and kissed her even more passionately.
After an unknown amount of time, the man on top of her finally stopped moving.
Xu Wanwan lay on top of him, exhausted, and did not want to move.
“What are you thinking about?”
The man’s deep and seductive voice suddenly rang in her ears.
Xu Wanwan felt an itch behind her ears and could not help but shiver.
“Nothing...”
Although she had just experienced such an intimate thing, she was still embarrassed to look directly into the man’s eyes. She lowered her head and said quickly, “I’m sleepy. I’m going to sleep first.”
She got up and was about to leave when her body was suddenly grabbed and she fell heavily into the man’s arms.
“What are you doing?”
Li Jingran looked serious. “Sleep with me tonight.”
Xu Wanwan’s eyes were wide open, and she couldn’t help but think of a lot of inappropriate scenes.
“No! We’re not married yet, so we can’t sleep together!”
Li Jingran stared at her with his deep eyes and smiled. “Who said we can’t sleep together if we’re not married?”
“I. . . I just can’t!” Xu Wan quickly sat down from the man’s body and subconsciously raised her arms to protect her body. “I’m still young, so I can’t do such a thing.”
“Don’t worry, I’m not that kind of person.”
The corners of Li Jingran’s lips twitched slightly. He bent down and carried the girl in his arms. “We’ll just sleep.”
The sound coming from Xu Wanwan got stuck in her throat as she helplessly watched herself getting carried back by the man into the room.
The door to the room was closed, and she was placed on the big bed.
Soon after, Li Jingran took off his coat directly, turned off the light, and lay down next to her.
Xu Wanwan could hear the sound of her heart beating in the dark as she lay next to the man, but she did not dare to move.
Her body was stiff. She would rather curl up into a ball than make a sound that Li Jingran would notice.
It wasn’t until late at night when she fell asleep. She was already in a daze when she felt a pair of hands on her waist. A warm force wrapped around her.
Xu Wanwan did not break free, nor did she push the man’s hand away.
She actually felt very safe.
The feeling of being hugged was as if someone was holding her in their hands. It was very comfortable.
This time, she slept very soundly.
When she woke up the next day, she saw the man lying next to her the moment she opened her eyes.
The side profile of his face was almost perfect. His nose was straight, and his thin lips were tightly shut. His long and narrow eyes were deep and mysterious. He was currently looking at her.
“You’re awake?”
The man’s voice was lazy and magnetic when he had just woken up.
Xu Wanwan was very close to him. She felt a little embarrassed. She hid her head under the blanket and said in a muffled voice, “Yes.”
Li Jingran leaned over and hugged the girl. “Sleep a little longer.”
At this moment, the sky was already bright. Xu Wanwan still had to go to school for class today. She wanted to get up now, but after listening to the man, she just laid down for a while and fell asleep again.
In the end, she slept for a few more hours. When she woke up again, it was already past ten o’clock.
Professor Chen’s class had been going on all morning. It had started at eight o’clock in the morning, but she was already late by more than two hours!
Xu Wanwan did not have time to think too much. She hurriedly jumped out of bed and was about to cry. “I’m going to be late. Why didn’t you call me?”
Li Jingran was leaning against the headboard and reading a document. When he heard that, he stopped his work and said calmly, “I’ve applied for leave on your behalf.”
“But today’s major class is very important. I still have to go!”
Xu Wanwan said in frustration, “There’s no time. I’m leaving first.”
After she said that, she left without turning back. In her panic, she actually slammed the door loudly.
Li Jingran watched her leave with his deep eyes, and the pressure around him gradually lowered.
Was she angry with him?
Ten minutes later, the Butler stood in the study room with a helpless expression. “Director Li, you said that Miss Xu went to school without saying goodbye this morning. I don’t think she’s angry with you.”
Li Jingran said coldly, “Why not?”
“Because Miss Xu was already late this morning. She must have been so anxious that she forgot to say goodbye to you.”
“As for slamming the door, I guess Miss Xu wasn’t paying attention to it.”
After the Butler finished speaking, he observed Li Jingran’s mood while wiping the cold sweat off his forehead.
Who would have thought that the CEO, who had always been cold, would care so much about a girl?
Li Jingran said with a sullen face, “Go and look for a gift for me.”
“You’re planning to give it to Miss Xu, right?”
Li Jingran didn’t say anything, but he tacitly agreed.
In the morning, he just wanted her to sleep a little longer, but who knew that this girl would get angry.
By preparing a gift for her, she would be in a better mood, and she would be able to continue sleeping in his room tonight.
When Xu Wanwan rushed to school breathlessly, Professor Chen was already holding the last class of the day.
She still had the nerve to knock on the door like before.
When Professor Chen saw Xu Wanwan coming, he remained tolerant. “Come in.”
On the contrary, Xu Wanwan was quite embarrassed. She lowered her head and quickly walked to her seat.
However, before she reached her seat, she heard Chen Qiping’s questioning voice——
“Professor, why is the Class Monitor late this time?”
“As our Class Monitor, not only does she not lead by example, but she is also late every day. This is not good for the class!”
Xu Wanwan pursed her lips. She was indeed unreasonable about this matter, so she could only quietly return to her seat.
However, Professor Chen took the initiative to defend her. “Xu Wanwan’s parents have already asked for leave from me, so she is not considered late.”
“But the Class Monitor has already been late more than once or twice. You can’t just ignore her every time!”
Professor Chen said coldly, “In my class, even if she is occasionally late, she can still get first place. Can you do the same?”
“If you can do it too, you can even skip my class.”
Chen Qiping gritted his teeth and was rendered speechless by Professor Chen’s words.
After class, Professor Chen walked to Xu Wanwan’s desk and said in a low voice, “I heard from Jingran that you overslept last night because you worked too hard.”
The professor’s words sounded very serious, but Xu Wanwan blushed inexplicably when she heard it.
She worked hard last night?
When she thought of what happened last night, she felt ashamed to see anyone.
“I’m sorry, Professor. I won’t do it again next time.” Xu Wanwan was really unreasonable, so she could only admit her mistake.
