My CEO Husband Has Some Issues-Chapter 1187: Shamelessly Clinging On
Chapter 1187: Chapter 1187: Shamelessly Clinging On
Chu Xi had never expected that even after she took the initiative like this, Li Shengxiao would still stomp her dignity into the ground. Though he was a woman, Li Shengxiao, without uttering a single curse word, made every word strike her like nails to the pillar of shame, leaving her feeling as if she was stark naked, her face wavering between shades of blue, red, and white with embarrassment.
After several changes of color, she watched the man turn his back and walk away. Sniffing the scent on her wrist, she bit her lip, her eyes dimming as she suddenly broke into a jog to follow him.
Li Shengxiao’s hand was already on the doorknob of his study when suddenly a soft body crashed into him from behind, arms encircling his waist, clinging tightly to him.
"I’m not leaving. I’m serious. You don’t need to push people away so harshly. I’m not any worse than your girlfriend. If you compare qualifications, she’s not even as good as I am. You haven’t tried, so how do you know I’m not as good as her?"
Li Shengxiao had a phobia of women!
Cui Jiangjing and those around him almost all knew this. Lin Zhiya, despite her desire for a grandchild, had never pressured him to marry or arranged blind dates for him, simply because Li Shengxiao had a severe phobia of women!
Most of his staff were male. Besides Rong Yan, Cui Jiangjing had said, there weren’t even female mosquitoes hovering around the Li Group.
One could imagine just how repulsed he felt when Chu Xi suddenly clung to him. His blood screamed with disgust, but Li Shengxiao suddenly realized his lower abdomen was reacting strangely. A surge of heat inexplicably rose, shooting from his abdomen straight to his brain, causing his body to respond.
He couldn’t possibly be having such a reaction to Chu Xi.
The presence of such a reaction could only mean...
His eyes turned frosty in an instant as he grabbed Chu Xi by the wrist, his breath short and ragged as he spun around, pulling her in front of him, his expression fierce, "What have you done to me!"
Chu Xi was startled by his intense gaze, shrinking back instinctively, "What are you talking about? What could I possibly have done?"
Li Shengxiao could feel the heat within his body growing more intense by the second, escalating to almost uncontrollable levels within the short span of a minute since he noticed it.
His breathing became heavy, his handsome face flushing unnaturally, yet his eyes shone alarmingly clear, like a pair of sharp swords piercing straight into Chu Xi’s body, "Chu Xi, you’re playing with fire!"
His breath was scorchingly hot.
From her initial confusion, Chu Xi slowly regained her composure and even dared to reach out with her other free hand, attempting to climb onto the man’s shoulder, speaking softly, "You don’t seem to be feeling well. That drink just now, did it make you drunk? Where’s your bedroom? Let me help you get there."
Li Shengxiao was so angry he could kill her. He rarely got angry, but Chu Xi’s actions had undoubtedly crossed his line. He pushed her away fiercely, his eyes blazing with rage, he bellowed, "Get out!" freewebnσvel.cѳm
Chu Xi stumbled from the shove, struggling to keep her balance, and fell to the ground in disarray. Picking herself up and swallowing the humiliation, she offered support to the clearly spent man once more, "You’ve had too much to drink. Let me help you to your room, you’ll feel better after some rest. As for us, we can talk about it once you’re rested."
"Get away!" Li Shengxiao smelt the perfume on her, a faint scent, but still cloyingly suffocating.
Rong Yan seldom wore perfume; her scent was that of a gentle shower gel, natural and fresh.
