CHAPTER 115: CHAPTER 115: SHEN YANCHEN BEHAVES LIKE A HOOLIGAN

When she returned home, the study light was on. She deliberately made some noise, but he didn’t come out, not even to say, "You’re back."

Standing outside the door, she looked at the tightly closed study door, then lowered her head and returned to her own room.

Holding that box of chocolates, it felt like a scorching hot potato.

She put it on the bedside table, thinking she would eat it when she was in a better mood.

She took her nightgown and went to the bathroom to take a shower. Because it was summer, she wore that white shirt dress, which wasn’t very long, just covering her thighs.

Her gaze instinctively went towards the bedside. She hadn’t expected much, but a faint glance delighted her—a cup of jujube milk lifted her spirits from the depths to the heights.

After drinking it, she hesitated while holding the box of chocolates. Should she give it to him?

Once the thought occurred, she couldn’t suppress it anymore.

She picked up the box and walked to the study door.

"Knock, knock—" She knocked politely on the door.

Inside, Shen Yanchen didn’t make a sound but moved his gaze from the documents to the door, hearing her voice from outside: "I’m coming in."

He remained silent, but the doorknob was already being turned.

Seeing her attire, he immediately felt a surge of heat in his lower abdomen, losing any coherent thought, his gaze fixated on her moving legs.

The shirt dress with small laces looked sweet, the skirt puffed up, almost revealing her entire legs, which were fair and well-proportioned. Though she wasn’t particularly tall, her legs appeared long and slender.

Every step she took was tantalizing.

Gu Qimiao didn’t realize what the man opposite her was thinking. With a mix of nervousness and excitement, she walked to his desk, just about to speak when he preempted her, coldly asking, "Why are you back so late?"

Gu Qimiao honestly replied, "Had dinner with Mo Ming, so..."

Then looked at his expression, unsure of his current mood.

After a moment of silence, seeing no signs of anger, Gu Qimiao cautiously handed over the box but distanced herself from the gift, saying, "Uhm... Xiaoxiao made some chocolates and asked me to bring some to you."

She hated herself for being so pathetic, obviously liking him so much but keeping it a secret.

Shen Yanchen glanced at the box and gestured with his chin, "Put it there."

Gu Qimiao’s hand trembled, not sure whether to feel disappointed or relieved, and put the box on the table. "Then... I’ll go to sleep first, you..."

Before she could finish, a hand suddenly appeared around her waist, forcefully pulling her towards him, her legs spread apart, the power at her waist pressing her down, and she found herself straddling his legs in an [intimate] position, without a gap...

Gu Qimiao’s face instantly turned bright red, her heart pounding in her throat. She tried to stand up with her toes on the ground, but he pressed down on her legs, and she faintly felt a hot mass pressing against her through the thin fabric...

She was so embarrassed and at a loss. If it were someone else, she might have slapped them, but the one acting rogue was the person she liked.

He was only wearing a shirt, with a couple of buttons undone casually at home, and as she lowered her head, she saw his beautiful collarbones and faintly visible chest muscles...

Gu Qimiao felt like she was about to explode, a fire burning inside her, with two voices arguing in her mind.

One said, "Push him away quickly! Don’t let him find out you like him!"

The other said, "This is a rare opportunity! Don’t think about anything! Just kiss him!"

Gu Qimiao’s hands lightly pressed against his chest, feeling nowhere to place them, her gaze falling on his thin lips, hearing her own heartbeat echoing in her ears...
