Chapter 653: I’ve Wanted to Eat You Whole From the Start
After releasing a breath of relief, Ji Nuan immediately gasped. Mo Jingshen did not do anything to her but placed her in the tub fully clothed.
The ice-cold water ran down from her head. Ji Nuan had soaked in cold water earlier, but the sudden sensation caused her to cry out subconsciously.
As the water warmed up, the man’s voice came from above her: “Do you want cold water or warm water?”
Mo Jingshen did not stand near the shower and his clothes remained dry. The steam affected her vision and when she raised her head, she could only see the man’s black shirt.
“Warm, warm water.” Ji Nuan shivered a little in the tub.
As the warm water trickled in, the temperature was much easier to bear with. However, the warmth seemed to intensify the heat in her body. Earlier at the hotel, she had drenched herself in cold water for fear of losing control. Right now, she was worried that she would catch a cold or a fever the next day and would rather have a warm bath over an ice-cold one.
The man turned to leave. Hearing his movements, Ji Nuan subconsciously gripped the side of the bathtub to ask: “Where are you going?”
The man paused in his footsteps but did not turn back: “I thought you didn’t want me to touch you? Soaking in the water will help ease your feelings. I can’t just stand here and watch you twist about like a snake in the water. If I did, I doubt I can keep my restrain.”
Ji Nuan: “...”
He seemed to be making sense, but she strangely felt wronged.
Ji Nuan felt that this drug was definitely a bad thing; it was even affecting her intelligence.
Seeing that the man was really leaving, she picked up a towel from the side and threw it heavily at his back.
Mo Jingshen allowed her to vent as she pleased, speaking softly over the trickling sounds of the shower: “Stay in the water obediently and soak in there for a night. You know that this bathtub can maintain the water at a certain temperature. Remember to adjust the temperature yourself, en?”
Ji Nuan stared at his back with reddened eyes: “Mo Jingshen, I’m about to die from this. I’m really about to explode.”
He finally then shifted his head to toss her a glance: “I know. What do you wish to do then? Visit the hospital?”
“...”
She naturally wouldn’t go. She had heard most of his phone call with Qin Siting earlier. Not only was visiting the hospital in such a state embarassing, it would be useless even if she went. The doctor would at most offer her an injection with sedatives.
“I won’t go.” She was resolute.
“En, then soak in the water.” After answering, the man moved to leave.
“Mo Jingshen!” Ji Nuan’s kept a tight grip on the tub: “You...”
He had already opened the bathroom door. Without looking back, he said: “It’s only fair to let you experience what it’s like to burn with desire every so often; to be able to look but not eat.”
“...”
Fair?
What did his usual burning desire have to do with her? It wasn’t as if she had taken the initiative to seduce him!
How could this be considered fair?
Ji Nuan glared at his disappearing backview in disbelief. She could no longer see him, but he left the bathroom door open in case something happened to her inside. She raged angrily: “Mo Jingshen, you’re really too shameless! How is this considered fair? This sort of drug isn’t something a normal person can endure, all right!”
There was no response.
Ji Nuan was really angered. However, the intensifying heat from within left her weak and incapable of shouting further.
Just as she began to lay in the tub quietly, she vaguely heard the movements from the bedroom.
Right now, she was in the bathroom Mo Jingshen frequently used. At this moment, the sound of the shower could also be heard from the bathroom in the bedroom.
She was currently suffering right here, yet Mo Jingshen left to take a shower?
Her brain must have cramped up. Earlier when he showed up at the hotel and carried her away, she even felt that he was glowing.
Glowing her ass...
The noise from the bathroom outside persisted for a while. Ji Nuan closed her eyes. Her clothes were clinging onto her body and the discomfort was difficult to bear. However, she could not muster any strength to remove her gown. After a strenuous attempt, she only succeeded in tugging on of the straps down. She then laid weakly in the tub.
The warm water against her burning skin was soothing, and she nearly couldn’t resist a moan. However, she stubbornly held onto her face and bit down on her lip, staying silent.
The noise from the bathroom outside finally quietened. A moment later, Mo Jingshen stepped in wearing a set of plain gray set of homewear that appeared soft and comfortable.
Ji Nuan finally opened her eyes and took a glance at the man who carried the scent of his shower gel on him. Her gaze was dazed yet hateful. When she saw that he was sufficiently charming despite his clean and unstyled hair, she decisively shut her eyes and turned her head away. She was unwilling, but could not help opening her mouth to ask: “Can you help me take off my gown? It’s clinging onto my skin; it’s too uncomfortable.”
“En.” The man did not refuse her. After responding, he approached and helped her up from the tub. He easily unzipped the back of her dress.
Her body relaxed as the gown was opened. The man then directly removed it from her body.
Ji Nuan was wearing a set of nude lingerie underneath. As she soaked under the water, it was basically the same as being naked. She did not turn to look at the man’s composed, but darkening gaze. Instead, she turned her head away and hugged her own chest to curl up in the tub.
“You’re still wearing your underwear. Do you need me to take it off for you?” Mo Jingshen appeared like a gentleman as he stayed by the bathtub and his low voice carried a hint of patience. However, based on Ji Nuan’s understanding of him, she knew that this man definitely wasn’t that good-hearted. If he wanted to take it off, he would have done so earlier. Was there a need to ask her?
He only wanted to force her to ask him for help.
Ji Nuan kept her arms wrapped tightly around her chest. Her mouth was as stubborn as ever: “No need.”
“En, then keep it on.” The man stood up and directly sat down by the tub to watch her. Her skin had turned a seductive shade pink from the effects of the drug, and her cheeks were also vibrantly red. She was still gritting her teeth to tolerate.
“Didn’t you say that you don’t want to see me soaking in the tub? What are you doing sitting over here?”
The man’s hand gently played with the water in the tub. Whenever the water splashed against her shoulder, she couldn’t resist a shiver. She lowered her head to watch the man’s fingers move along the surface of the water and strangely wished he was touching her.
As she shook her head to wake herself up, she heard the man’s low voice: “Although on the inside, I’ve wanted to eat you whole from the start, your temper has been stubborn for too long. I just wish to see how long the proud Ji Nuan can hold on for.”
