C264 Pastries(1)

"Cough, cough!" Yao Xue choked on her tears, but she did not cry because she did not dare to cry in front of him.

"There are snacks on the table." Suddenly, he said something irrelevant.

Yao Xue turned around and picked up a plate of snacks on the coffee table and placed it in front of him with both hands.

Looking at the pink pastries, her stomach protested again. However, she was not stupid enough to think that he was letting her eat.

"You want me to do it myself?" He asked coldly.

Yao Xue immediately picked up a piece of pastry and carefully placed it by his mouth.

His eyes were like a torch as he stared at her fiercely for a long time before he opened his mouth and took a small bite.

"Rose cake, it is made from the roses in town. You should also try some." Finally, he showed mercy.

Just as Yao Xue was about to take another piece of cake to eat, suddenly, he stretched out his leg and knocked over the cake in his hand.

She was so scared that her heart jumped. She did not know where she had angered her and her body trembled uncontrollably.

"Raise your head." His tone was very inappropriate. His gaze was as cold as ice that could freeze a person into ice.

Yao Xue heard the sound and looked at him weakly. She was very flustered and at a loss for what to do about the temperamental him.

"Eat it." Chu Yihan's eyes drifted over the pastry in her hands. Obviously, he wanted her to eat the remaining piece that he had eaten earlier.

Yao Xue did not dare to refuse. Plus, her stomach was rumbling with hunger. She lowered her head and took a small bite.

Smelly and elegant tasting, she did not eat ravenously at all. It seemed that she had also received a high education before.

Yao Xue had never known that the rose cake could be so delicious. It was delicate and had a hint of sweetness. The faint rose fragrance made people think of the large fiery-red color of the rose garden.

At this moment, it was as if she had returned to the time she was injured for half a year. Her memory was blank but she lived a happy life.

A trace of a happy smile could not help but appear on her face.

This was not the first time she smiled at him. Her smile was not beautiful either, but it still made him absent-minded.

Jiajia, she made him think of the woman he loved the most.

Wasn't the reason why he kept her was because she was somewhat similar to Jiajia?

Did she like rose cakes that much? He actually smiled.

The small piece of cake was quickly swallowed. She reached out the tip of her pink tongue and licked her lips gently. She even put her finger into her mouth and sucked the remaining rose cake into her stomach.

Perhaps she did not realize how tempting this casual action was.

"Is it delicious?"

He couldn't believe that his voice would become so hoarse, but it was the truth.

"Yes!" She nodded subconsciously. For a moment, she had yet to recover from the beautiful scene in her mind.

Suddenly, she was grabbed by someone, and then she fell into a hug filled with the scent of a man.

When she looked up, it was his gaze that burned with a kind of fire that she could not understand.

She was an adult, so she did not have to know what he wanted. She pushed him away without hesitation.

Chu Yihan was unprepared and let her escape.

"Sir, do you like to listen to music? I'll sing it for you." Before he got angry, she took two steps back and tried to please him in another way.

His face was expressionless, and his eyes were flashing with anger. It was extremely dangerous.

But in his heart, he was thinking that her taste was also so familiar. It was as sweet as Jiajia's and he could not control it.

Yao Xue's heart was beating wildly in fear. She started to sing before he could say anything.

"Can you let me accompany you?

Since you said that I can't keep you.

The road back was a bit dark.

Worried about letting you go alone.

I think it's because I'm not gentle enough.

I can't share your worries.

If I can't say it out loud,

I'll put my regrets in my heart.

Leave my sadness to your beauty and let you take it away.

From now on, I have no reason to be happy.

I think I can hold back my sadness, but can you also think of me?

It was a very old song, but it calmed his anger that was about to explode. His heart slowly calmed down, and all that was left was her beautiful singing.

After finishing the song, she carefully looked at him.

He was still expressionless. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry. It was frightening.

He stood up and walked forward. She instinctively retreated until her back was against the tent. There was no way back.

The sharpness in his eyes seemed to have eased a little. Was he not angry anymore?

When his hand touched her hair, she trembled like a frightened deer.

"Don't you want to be my woman?" His expression was cold, and his tone was dark.

She nodded from the bottom of her heart, but then she realized something? She shook her head.

"I never force any woman, unless they beg me, and you're no exception." He let go of her hair, turned around, and returned to his seat.

Yao Xue secretly heaved a sigh of relief, analyzing the meaning of his words in her mind.

"Not bad singing? Learning music?" He seemed to be interested in her matter.

"No." She only vaguely remembered this song.

"You know how to play the piano?"

She shook her head. Piano was too expensive. To normal families, it was simply an extravagant hope.

"You're from China?" Because he had been speaking Mandarin ever since he saw her, and she answered fluently.
