Chapter 1 Interrupted Intimacy
The man's hot breath wrapped around my neck.
Mixed with a pungent, flamboyant perfume scent.
It was a woman's perfume.
I had just opened my eyes when dense kisses kept falling.
The atmosphere grew most intense.
I suddenly spoke.
"What lot did you draw this time?"
His movements froze abruptly.
He quickly got up from the bed. The passion in his eyes vanished.
No interest left.
Reflected in my eyes was a handsome face.
Now it held only some unnatural stiffness.
After waiting a long while, I heard his answer.
"I drew... a bad lot."
I fell silent after hearing it.
I lowered my gaze to the patterns on the bedsheet. My heart held no surprise at all.
This answer, I had known two hours earlier.
While looking for the orange cat, I passed the Zhou family ancestral hall.
I heard him talking with the butler inside.
"Butler, you drew a good lot again."
Zhou Linchen paused, then replied indifferently.
"Just like before, switch it to... a bad lot."
The butler sighed heavily after hearing it.
"You and Miss Li have been engaged for five years. Do you still want her to keep waiting?"
Zhou Linchen hesitated before speaking.
"Wait a bit more... Qingyan just returned to the country. She has always disliked Li Xia as her sister-in-law."
"Butler, it's you getting married. You can't always wrong Miss Li for the young miss's sake!"
The butler couldn't help raising his voice to remind him.
Zhou Linchen rubbed his brow.
His tone carried cool indifference.
"Just one more year. Li Xia is very obedient. She will understand me and be willing to keep waiting."
The butler wanted to remind him again.
The orange cat in my arms suddenly meowed discontentedly.
When Zhou Linchen ran out.
I had already left. I also knew one thing.
This year, he still didn't want to marry me, so he wanted to switch the lot again.
Seeing me fall silent.
He sighed.
He hugged me guiltily.
His phone rang at that moment.
I saw the lit screen.
