BXBX NOVEL Chapter 103
Chapter 103
He panted lightly, slowly releasing the woman\'s lips, his eyes full of lingering desire, his pale face flushed red.
His gaze fixed deeply upon her, his tone serious: "I admit, at first I brought you to Nanfeng Courtyard because of the cub. But now, I like you, I only like you."
"You can take the cub wherever you go, I just don\'t want... I don\'t want to be abandoned by you."
He took a deep breath, looking down at her, a hint of panic in his eyes: "Don\'t cry anymore, you can hit me or scold me, just don\'t cry."
"Don\'t give me that!" Shang Xi\'s eyes were still teary, her face flushed red as she pushed him away. She took a few steps to the side, her back towards him, feeling ill at ease as she pursed her lips: "Weren\'t you angry that I was taking my son away? Why are you saying all this now? Do you think I\'ll believe you just because you say these things?"
He... liked her?
He still liked her?
Shang Xi\'s heart was in turmoil, a jumbled mess. He had just kissed her, she should have slapped him, but...
Why... was her first reaction not one of aversion and disgust, but rather an unexpected sense of embarrassment.
She struggled to suppress these feelings, turning to face him. She pursed her lips, a hint of sarcasm: "Gu Wen, I said I would leave in half a year, and you agreed to it. Now you\'re saying you like me?"
"Yes." The man\'s chiseled face was one of resignation, acceptance. "I regret it."
"I thought I could let you go and see you with someone else. Yeah, I lost completely, I can\'t do it."
Gu Wen\'s hand clenched tightly at his side, his sharp brows furrowed with hostility: "Just the thought of you being held in the embrace of those damned men makes me want to bite their necks off."
His gaze intensified, licking his menacing fangs, watching Shang Xi\'s widened eyes in surprise, he chuckled lightly, "Sorry, I\'ve always been like this."
"This is the real me."
To be honest, Shang Xi was somewhat surprised.
In her view, Gu Wen was narcissistic, but he had a sense of responsibility. As the leader of the Wolf Clan, he was upright, fair, and resolute in the eyes of the wolf pack, mostly proper and righteous.
The head of the Wolf Clan who upheld peace and justice, was now thinking of biting innocent humans to death out of jealousy.
Isn\'t this... just like a Fallen werewolf?
Or perhaps, werewolves were only separated from Fallen werewolves by a thin wall?
"I like you, what about you?" Gu Wen swished his tail, taking a step closer, his dark eyes possessively fixed on her.
Shang Xi\'s heart skipped a beat, turning her gaze away: "I... I certainly don\'t like you."
"Is that so?" Gu Wen\'s piercing gaze bore into her as he took another step forward, causing Shang Xi to freeze.
Gu Wen leaned in, whispering a few words in her ear: "But, when I kissed you just now, you didn\'t push me away."
Shang Xi\'s lips trembled: "That... that was because I didn\'t react in time!"
A cunning glint flashed in the werewolf\'s eyes, he chuckled softly, his nose twitching as he sniffed suggestively, his thin lips parting: "I can smell it."
Bang—
Shang Xi felt her mind go blank, her face burning red, her legs clenching tightly together.
"You..." Burning with rage and embarrassment, she exclaimed: "Gu Wen, you\'re no different from a dog now!"
In her view, this was a severe insult. Gu Wen cared a great deal about this, even comparing wild wolves to himself would bother him.
However, Gu Wen merely shrugged indifferently: "To you, I\'ve always been a dog, I don\'t care anymore."
"If you want me to be your dog, that\'s not out of the question."
Gu Wen gazed at the beautiful, flushed woman, his eyes full of greed: "Give me a role, to be your dog, to be your wolf, I\'ll take anything."
For a werewolf, as long as they could devour their prey, they could do anything, with no concept of right or wrong. In front of their mate, what dignity or face did they need to maintain? That was merely something that concerned pure humans.
The cunning nature of werewolves was fully manifested in this moment.
"Have you gone insane?" Shang Xi backed away several steps.
She never expected Gu Wen to actually say the words "to be your dog!"
She was stunned into silence: "Have you forgotten who you are?" If the company people or the wolf pack heard this, wouldn\'t he be shameless?
"Who I am has nothing to do with my liking you."
"Oh, the cub caught a rabbit."
"What? Really?" Shang Xi hurriedly looked toward the forest, but apart from the light drizzle and the branches and leaves, she couldn\'t see anything.
"So, what do you think?"
"About what?"
"Being my mate." Gu Wen stated bluntly.
Shang Xi paused, this man was now pushing her relentlessly, as if he had thrown caution to the wind.
"You clearly aren\'t averse to me, you even have feelings for me."
Shang Xi\'s face burned: "Gu Wen! Shut up!"
Gu Wen fell silent, staring at her for a while, finally concluding: "I\'ve discovered that you really eat up this kind of thing."
Won\'t take the initiative, only rejecting others.
A cowardly mouse hiding behind the door.
Only wanting others to keep knocking.
"Not calling me \'Mr. Gu\' anymore?"
Shang Xi scoffed, defiantly: "You\'re not even acting like a person, why should I call you by your name?"
"Of course." Gu Wen looked at her intently: "This is how you really are, isn\'t it? Mocking me behind my back."
Shang Xi pursed her lips, feigning composure: "So what if I am! I am hypocritical like this!"
She had always pretended to be easy-going.
Shang Xi didn\'t care how he saw her anymore, she had already shown her ugly side in front of him.
Gu Wen gave a slight smirk: "It\'s nothing, I like how you don\'t hold back with me."
"From now on, no need to mock me behind my back, say it to my face."
Shang Xi was momentarily stunned.
Just one chapter today, I\'ll try to get three chapters out tomorrow. Thank you for the gifts, my darlings!
"I selfishly hope that someone can climb over a thousand mountains for me, and read the rust-stained wreckage beneath my tattered shell." This quote from the internet seems very fitting for Shang Xi.
