Suddenly, a palm covered her eyes, ’’Sleep.’’
And Ella drowned in her dreamland again.
On the other hand, Ji Yan was sweating buckets because of Adrian’s suffocating pressure.
"_" Second master, ah, second master. You want her to drop on your lap but you also get offended if her sleep is disturbed...
I am your secretary, not an ancient cultivator with hidden powers, ah!
In her dreams, she was lying on a huge teddy bear this time.
Ella hummed in satisfaction, rubbing her cheek against the plush fur.
Suddenly, her gaze landed on a lollipop dangling in front of her eyes.
She immediately opened her mouth and took it inside before giving it a long lick.
The lollipop melted on her tongue, sweet and familiar—until it didn’t.
A strange texture, warm and firm, spread across her taste buds.
Her brows scrunched, confusion stirring in her half-conscious mind. Slowly, her eyes fluttered open.
Her blurry vision slowly adjusted to the dim lighting.
Ella stiffened, feeling a weird ache in her breasts.
And her mouth was full too. So full that she couldn’t speak.
Ella glanced down slowly.
Two long legs. A solid, muscled thigh beneath her chest.
Ella’s soul nearly left her body as her gaze trailed up the elegant wrist she was clutching, past the two jade-like fingers still inside her mouth.
Thunderstruck, her brain finally connected the dots: She had just French-kissed Adrian’s fingers.
Ella’s soul nearly left her body.
In a perfect world, she would wake up and realize this was a dream.
But no, the devil himself was right there, watching her commit a sin against his royal fingers.
Ella immediately stopped her tongue movements and opened her mouth wide until it formed an ’O’.
She expected the man to retract his fingers but he did not move.
Rather, she slowly retracted her neck and released his fingers from her mouth.
Suspicious liquid... that she surmised was her saliva dripped from those jade like long slender fingers.
Ella did not dare to look up at him.
She slowly flipped on his thighs and propped herself on her elbows.
After a bit of a struggle, Ella sat up finally.
Hearing nothing from Adrian, she slowly looked towards the man.
Adrian was seated like the perfect statue, like God’s most precious creation.
His hand... that had not been maligned by her was supporting the side of his forehead as he looked out of the window.
Somehow, he looked brighter and more alluring than the moon itself.
You pervert, now is not the time to admire his beauty. Ella chided herself.
"Baby, why didn’t you wake me up? You see, my sleeping habits are not quite graceful...’’ Ella laughed awkwardly.
The man turned his head towards her, ’’I have known it for a while now,’’ he said, his voice calm.
Ella froze for a moment but then heat rose up her cheeks.
The thoughts of their first time together flashed in her mind in HD videos.
Was this teasing her?
Wasn’t Adrian very simple-minded and straightforward? Didn’t he have a low EQ?
But again, she could only blame her own mind for being in the gutter all the time.
Ella snuck a glance in the opposite direction, only to realize that the partition was raised.
Suddenly, her face turned hotter again.
What did she do in her sleep that Ji Yan had to raise the partition?
However, when she saw Adrian’s calm face, she consoled herself. She probably didn’t do much.
The silence between them lingered for a few moments before Ella glanced at Adrian, ’’There is something...’’
Riri’s faint voice permeated the thin partition, momentarily distracting Ella.
Hearing Ella’s voice, Ji Yan raised the partition and passed Riri to Ella.
Sneakily, he snuck a glance at Adrian. And as expected, seeing Ella stroking the puppy lovingly, the man’s calm face darkened.
Ji Yan: "_" I am legally blind. I saw nothing.
For god’s sake, you cannot be expecting head pats from Miss Yu like a puppy, second master. Because you are not one.
After coddling and pampering Riri for a long time, Ella was finally satisfied.
Her hands however kept stroking the little guy’s soft fur.
Ella turned to Adrian, knowing it was time to push her agenda.
"Baby, I forgot to tell you before. I got full marks for a class test.’’
Ji Yan’s eyes bulged. How come...? Didn’t she have zero interest in studies before?
Adrian glanced at Ella and did not even bat an eyelid, ’’Mm.’’
This ’mm’ came too smooth. Why was he not even the least bit surprised?
It was like a genius student going home and telling the parents about their marks and the parents giving a silent acknowledgement knowing that their child is a genius.
But considering Ella’s dark history, she didn’t expect such a calm and composed reaction from Adrian.
Ella almost lost track of the conversation for a minute there.
After a few beats, she continued, ’’But my exams are approaching, baby. I am afraid they will take place somewhere within this month only. I have yet to check the released schedules.’’
An ominous feeling crept up in Ji Yan’s heart.
Adrian remained silent.
Ella inhaled a deep breath. This was tough, ’’And since I have barely attended classes, I need to make a lot of preparations. So, baby, during this time, I won’t have much time for you.’’
Ji Yan almost clutched his chest.
Miss Yu, why must you provoke the dragon everytime after giving it a little treasure to make him happy?
Although Ella said it in such embellished words, what she said could easily be translated to—Stay away from me.
However, much to Ji Yan’s impending heart issues, Ella was far from done.
’’You see, baby, I can afford to fail my exams. But you cannot afford to have a wife who is such a failure.’’
Adrian’s fingers tapped against his thighs, and then he slightly leaned forward, "I can.’’
Ella found her vocabulary lacking suddenly.
After a while, she gradually recovered, ’’You can. Of course, you can. You have a strong heart but baby, have you ever thought about my fragile heart?"
’’Oh?" Adrian’s gaze dropped to Ella’s chest. ’’If it’s fragile, why do you keep testing it?"
