Chapter 72: His Passion
Chapter 72
With a twinkle in her eye, a plan formed in her mind. Looking at the milk in her hand, her eyes gleamed mischievously as she walked over to the two of them.
"Eldest brother, sister-in-law, you\'re back! I just happened to heat up some milk. Sister-in-law, drink some, it\'s good for sleep."
She handed the cup forcefully to Rong Dai without waiting to see if she would take it or not.
The milk splashed out, instantly spilling all over Rong Dai. Her cane was also soaked.
"Oh no! I\'m so clumsy, I got your cane all wet too. I\'ll go wash it off. Eldest brother, carry sister-in-law upstairs."
She quickly snatched the cane back from Rong Dai, and winked playfully at Huo Shao Ting.
This little sister was very thoughtful, wasn\'t she?
Then she quickly escaped into the kitchen, leaning against the doorframe to continue watching the "story" unfold.
Rong Dai: "..."
What should she say to this little girl...
Huo Shao Ting had already carried her up and down the stairs six or seven times today! Besides, this was...really awkward.
She looked up at Huo Shao Ting anxiously, a trace of irritable shyness in her eyes. Her voice trembled slightly:
"Or...you can carry me upstairs."
She had run out of the cinema just now because she was too nervous. She must have walked too hurriedly, because her ankle was starting to hurt a little now.
She wasn\'t afraid of anything, but she would never joke around with her own body.
If she sprained her ankle, it would not only affect her gait, but also cause her some inconvenience.
"Alright." How could Huo Shao Ting not know that Huo Mei Shu was deliberately creating opportunities for them? It was just that his eyes had strayed to places they shouldn\'t have earlier, and the surging feelings in his body were a bit difficult to suppress at the moment.
Rong Dai didn\'t notice the few drops of milk that had slid down her neck from her collarbone. She had a very nice figure, with all the right curves in all the right places.
There had been subtle hints of ambiguity between the two all day today, so it was only natural that Huo Shao Ting would notice these little details.
His Adam\'s apple moved instinctively as he bent down to pick her up.
Huo Mei Shu leaned against the door watching the two of them go upstairs. Humming a song, she went to put away the cup, and casually tossed the cane into the corner of the kitchen.
With eldest brother around, what did they need a cane for? It was clearly superfluous.
When they arrived in the bedroom, Rong Dai was extremely nervous.
This was the marital chamber of the two of them. It used to be Huo Shao Ting\'s bedroom, and after their marriage, they had renovated it completely. Everything was filled with romantic overtones, especially the lighting in the bedroom—warm-colored, except for the desk lamp, casting a gentle, ambiguous glow that easily led one\'s thoughts astray and aroused reckless passions.
"I\'ll go run you a bath. You\'ve sweated a lot today, soaking in hot water will help you sleep."
Huo Shao Ting set her down on the sofa, heaving an invisible sigh of relief. This was truly testing his self-control!
"Okay." Rong Dai didn\'t dare meet his eyes, keeping her head lowered and gaze fixed on her toes.
Huo Shao Ting took off his suit jacket and went into the bathroom to fill up the tub for her. He considerately laid out the toiletries for her use before leaving.
"I...I can get in myself."
Seeing him bend down again, preparing to carry her, Rong Dai\'s heart thumped wildly, skipping a beat. Her cheeks burned fiery hot, and no matter how she tried, she couldn\'t bring her body temperature down.
Huo Shao Ting ignored her words and picked her up to carry her into the bathroom anyway.
Once inside, Rong Dai eyed the filled bathtub. Lifting a hand, she realized there was no way she could unzip her dress herself.
She was instantly embarrassed, and could only blush and ask Huo Shao Ting, who was about to leave, to come back:
"Shao...Shao Ting...can you help me unzip? I...can\'t reach."
Rong Dai really hated that her arms weren\'t longer in that moment. Asking like this made it seem like she was deliberately trying to entice Shao Ting.
Like a hungry, insatiable courtesan saying to a client, "Dear patron, come quickly! I\'ve been waiting a long time..."
Ugh!
What nonsense about a courtesan!
A voice in Rong Dai\'s heart cursed silently. Her heart thumped erratically, pounding like a trapped deer.
Huo Shao Ting\'s steps faltered. He gazed at the woman\'s back, and the scene from the cloakroom floated into his mind again.
"Shao Ting?" Hearing no movement for a while, Rong Dai assumed he had left. She instinctively turned her head and called out softly.
It just so happened that she turned right as Huo Shao Ting walked back to unzip her dress for her.
Their heated breaths intertwined. Blood surged through their bodies, their hearts raced, and waves of fiery tingles washed over them with each frantic beat.
Gazing at Huo Shao Ting so intimately close, Rong Dai\'s mind went blank. A small voice inside was chanting: she was willing.
Huo Shao Ting had been holding back the entire afternoon. Seeing the look in Rong Dai\'s eyes now, he understood. His sturdy arms embraced her slender waist seemingly of their own accord, pulling her against his chest.
Feeling the softness of her delicate body, his blood roared like magma. Breathing heavily, his dark eyes reflected her face.
Rong Dai had never felt such madness before. The ecstasy and passion...his ardor robbed her of all thought. Hearing his low murmur, she softly replied, her throat delicate and coy.
Her response emboldened Huo Shao Ting. He wanted nothing more than to pull her into his very marrow!
"Sister-in-law! Sister-in-law!"
Just as the two were losing themselves, Huo Shao Jie arrived at their worst possible moment, contract in hand, pounding anxiously on their bedroom door. Of course, the door was unlocked, so he rushed right in.
"Sister-in-law?"
Seeing the bedroom empty, Huo Shao Jie was frantic. He had been working on this contract issue all afternoon—it wasn\'t easy for him!
Hearing the voice outside, Rong Dai\'s body jerked in surprise as reason slowly trickled back.
Hands braced against Huo Shao Ting\'s chest, her face still flushed, breathing still rapid, she shyly yet firmly pushed him away. "Shao Ting...Shao Jie is outside."
In her previous life, she was no stranger to intimacy between men and women, but she had never experienced such passion born of emotion. She knew full well where things would lead if they kept going.
It wasn\'t that she was rejecting Huo Shao Ting, but Huo Shao Jie\'s intrusion had interrupted her mood. Although she still craved to continue as well.
However, in such matters, it was a spur of the moment thing. With Huo Shao Jie still calling out, she had no choice but to rein in her senses.
