Perhaps in Helian Xiao’s mind, as long as there were feelings for each other, they could go to a hotel.
But if An Feng was such a person, she would not have been single for so many years and not even have a man by her side to take care of her.
No matter how much she had experienced, or how young or old she was, she would never have a one night stand so casually with a man.
Taking a deep breath, An Feng soothed the rumbling emotions in her heart and tried to say in a calm manner to Helian Xiao, “Mr Helian, Let’s end this. I can’t afford to play with this ambiguity, nor do I want to play. No matter what you think, I don’t have any thoughts about you, so please don’t disturb my life in the future.”
But in her mind, she knew she would still do the DNA testing. She hated that man who raped her that year, but she could not be so selfish anymore. If it was really Helian Xiao, her Zhizhi could still be worthy of Sihan’s status.
It was all right if she was not happy, but her Zhizhi must be happy!
Helian Xiao did not know what An Feng was thinking. He only felt that she had turned hostile as rapidly as he turned the pages of a book.
Men all had bad sides. The more they could not get something, the more they want to conquer it. Especially for a successful person who stood at the pinnacle of success like him, there was nothing in the world that could daunt him, and he always liked to be stimulated by new things.
An Feng saw that the man was silent and looked at him with a frown.
His expression did not look so good.
Perhaps, this was the first time in his life he was rejected by a woman so thoroughly.
An Feng wanted to leave the kitchen, but he pressed closely to her, having no intention of giving in.
“Get out of my way!”
Helian Xiao looked down at An Feng and frowned slightly when he saw the undisguised repulsion and anger in her eyes.
He had read countless people and had always been able to penetrate a person’s mind and know what they were thinking. But he found that he could not see through this woman in front of him at all.
This kind of slightly aloof and hot and cold feeling was like an invisible hand, tickling people’s hearts.
When An Feng saw that Helian Xiao’s expression had turned dark, she wondered if she her tone had hurt his self-esteem. A person like him must have not been rejected before!
Taking a deep breath, she tried to make her tone calmer. “Mr Helian, please forgive me if I did something to make you misunderstand. I will be more careful next time. I will treat the kiss the other time and this time as though it never happened.”
Surely her words were clear enough, right?
But the man in front of her had no sign of retreating.
What was wrong with him? Confused, An Feng frowned and looked at him in bewilderment.
Since An Feng was slender and petite, with her hair spread lightly over her shoulders, it made her face more delicate and gentle. The children of the Qiao family were all exquisite looking. Qiao Yanze was handsome, An Feng was good looking and her skin was fair and clear. She usually paid attention in maintaining her skin and looked much younger than other women of the same age.
Helian Xiao did not know what kind of spell he was under. There was a sense of familiarity in An Feng that he felt as though he had known her before.
But he could not remember when they met!
“What on earth do you want, Mr Helian?”
Helian Xiao looked at the anger in her eyes and did not mind it at all. Instead, he said, “What’s the next step after kissing?”
What? A discordant image flashed past An Feng’s mind.
Perhaps guessing what she was thinking, he lifted his lips into a smile. “You’re right. I really do want to have sex with you.”
Maybe this was the difference between young people and middle-aged people. At this stage, there was no need to hide what he wanted to do if he wanted to put it into action.
An Feng froze when she heard his words. Never before had a man uttered words that were so explicit to her face.
And he spoke in such a serious manner.
An Feng wanted to scold him and call him a pervert and jerk, but he must have trained himself to be so thick-skinned, so she gave a forced smile. “Mr Helian is a respectable figure, I hope you can have self-respect!”
But her wrist was grabbed by him and he pulled her to his chest.
With a thud, their bodies were intimately close.
“You’re right. I can have all kinds of women, but you have truly piqued my interest. I don’t think I’ll stop until I get you.”
Sensing a strange sort of possessiveness, An Feng was frightened. She felt that she had attracted a venomous snake.
Looking at her fluttering eyelashes, Helian Xiao narrowed his eyes, patting her face. “Okay, I’m just scaring you. I won’t force an unwilling woman. If you don’t like it, we can not meet again.”
With that, he released An Feng.
Helian Xiao went to the entrance of the kitchen and saw Nan Zhi who came to look for him. “Mr Helian, have you finished drinking water?”
Helian Xiao hummed in a deep voice. “Let’s continue in the yard?”
“Okay.”
An Feng stood in the kitchen, looking at the two disappearing figures and she held onto the kitchen counter, her legs feeling slightly weak.
Her heart was still beating fast and the surrounding air was full of the mature man’s scent.
She could not deny her inner thoughts.
She was afraid of Helian Xiao.
She had been afraid of him since she had first met him.
Not only because of his powerful aura and shrewdness, but also the embarrassment he brought to her from time to time.
Every time she saw him, her hair would stand on end and felt like she had nowhere to hide.
When An Feng looked at the entrance of the kitchen and saw that there was no one, she took the cup Helian Xiao had drunk from and put it into a clean transparent bag.
Helian Zhu waited in the study for a while and was impatient when she saw that Helian Xiao and Nan Zhi went downstairs one after another, so she went downstairs too.
She circled around the living room and did not see them. She then went to the dining room and kitchen.
Out of pure coincidence, she happened to see An Feng carefully putting a cup into a transparent bag and her heart pounded.
Why was Nan Zhi’s mother putting the cup into the bag?
Helian Zhu glanced at the kitchen counter and saw that there was another cup. It was obvious that the cup An Feng put into the bag was drunk by somebody.
Father had said that he could not drink tea and came downstairs to drink water. Could it be that this was the cup Father had drunk from?
But why did An Feng keep the cup Father had drunk from?
Helian Zhu’s heart was flustered and nervous for no reason.
Afraid that An Feng would see her, Helian Zhu quietly left the kitchen.
…
In the backyard.
Helian Xiao looked at Nan Zhi. “I’m really sorry for Helian Zhu coming over to find you and what she did last night. If something really happened, she really would have caused a lot of trouble for you.”
Although she had no good impression of Helian Zhu, Nan Zhi felt that Helian Xiao was quite kind. So she smiled and said, “I trust Sihan very much. Although he would not do anything that would hurt me, it does not mean that I’ll forgive Miss Helian for what she did.”
Helian Xiao nodded. “I understand. And I won’t persuade you to forgive her. After we go back, I’ll punish her and you can rest assured that I won’t let her contact Sihan again in the future.”
“Thank you, Mr Helian.”
“You’ll be going back to the Capital with your mother soon, right?”
“Yes.”
Helian Xiao took out a gold-stamped business card from his card case. “This is my private number. Know that you can call me if there’s anything at all.”
