Fake Marriage To The Richest Tycoon-Chapter 70: Draw a turtle on my face?

A few minutes later, Shentu Mingye arrived before Shentu Jing and handed over his findings.

Han Juexian saw Shentu Mingye out the door. Actually it was more like he was kicked out by Shentu Jing.

"Hey! Why are you chasing me away? I’m not done yet!" Shentu Mingye cried as he held onto the door frame and refused to leave.

"Sorry but boss said to throw you out," Han Juexian said.

"I didn’t hear him say anything!"

"Maybe because you’re deaf," Ding Yu added from behind.

"Deaf? Little Ding Ding, did you just insult my perfect ears?" Shentu Mingye looked nasty with a sneer.

Ding Yu gulped in fear. He had unknowingly made the Little Master angry. He looked at Han Juexian with pleading eyes to help him out of the situation.

Han Juexian didn’t respond, rather he stepped back and left Ding Yu with Shentu Mingye. Hah, have you forgotten about how you teamed up with Miss Qin and abandoned me? Han Juexian’s eyes said it and he pretended to sulk.

He felt a pressure on his sleeve and saw Ding Yu looking up at him with puppy eyes, shaking his sleeves back and forth with a pitiful expression.

Ding Yu was too cute to say no so Han Juexian could only agree. He sighed and went to whisper something in Shentu Mingye’s ear. Han Juexian was good with flattery and words so naturally he knew what to say to appease The Little Master.

Once Shentu Mingye left, Shentu Jing had a troubled look plastered on his face.

"Boss, what do we do?" Han Juexian could sense his boss’ problems and troubles.

It concerns the boss’ wife. The boss was in a dilemma. Han Juexian could tell that their boss really likes Miss Qin.

At night, Qin Zhuzhu had trouble sleeping. It was already 2pm yet she couldn’t fall asleep. Strange but she never experienced sleeplessness before. Was she getting insomnia too?!

That can’t be! There’s no such thing that insomnia can spread.

Qin Zhuzhu felt empty as if something was missing. God, why was falling asleep so hard recently? She had many thoughts running through her head. No matter how hard she tries to suppress those thoughts, they keep on resurfacing.

Before her grandpa died, he wanted to revive the Qin family and the company. Unfortunately the Qin family fell and her father betrayed the family by marrying and currying favour with another rich family.

Whenever Qin Zhuzhu thought of the humiliation she and her mother suffered, she became angry. That was like humiliating slaps to her face. She knew that many people were insulting her mother behind her back, calling her names and being an unwanted dirty woman whom no man wants.

She chased her thoughts and closed her eyes, and soon she dozed off.

Not long later, she woke up as she felt something in her bed. She sat up straight and reached for the lamp on her desk by the side of the bed.

She was about to turn on the lights when Shentu Jing’s magnetic and low voice stopped her.

"Don’t turn it on," Shentu Jing’s hands hugged her tightly around the waist and he pulled her back down to lie down.

His masculine scent floated to her nostrils. He hugged her back and whispered to her ears.

"Let me have a good night sleep, little Pearl,"

"Hmm..." She hummed.

Shentu Jing cuddled her in his strong arms and rested his chin on her head. Qin Zhuzhu felt a strange sense of belonging and warmth.

The way they slept was intimate yet Qin Zhuzhu found herself liking his touch. With Shentu Jing around, she felt at peace. He was like the sun that warmed her up and threw away her problems. She rested her head against his chest, feeling his taut muscles.

"When did you come in?"

"Not long ago. I thought you were in deep sleep," Shentu Jing mumbled with his eyes closed.

"Stinky Jing, are you okay?" Qin Zhuzhu sensed something was off with his behaviour. She couldn’t quite put it but he wasn’t behaving like he used to. Was his illness acting up?

"Fine.... Sleepy..mmm..."

After a few seconds or minutes, Qin Zhuzhu slowly turned around so that she was lying face to face with Shentu Jing.

He was fast asleep, breathing calmly.

At this angle, Shentu Jing looked gorgeously handsome. Those mesmerizing pair of eyes were closed and she could see his enchanting long lashes.

Those lips which kissed her that day were facing her, soft, pink and wet. Qin Zhuzhu was tempted to lift a finger and touch it.

Come to think of it, he looks like an angel when he’s sleeping instead of teasing her like he usually does in the daytime.

His arms tightened around her waist, pulling her closer to him until she was pressed against his chest. She gasped softly.

Qin Zhuzhu’s heart started to beat faster and faster. Damn, wasn’t this too close? It was very easy for others to misunderstand this ambiguous position.

She tried to push his chest but it felt like she was pushing a wall, unmovable and strong.

He mumbled something incoherent and licked his lips, his tongue almost touching her nose.

Qin Zhuzhu tried to move her head back, however a strong hand pushed her shoulders and her head accidentally bumped into his chest.

She hoped she didn’t wake him up. Why did he suddenly have to climb into her bed at night?! She wanted to cry out loud.

She reminded herself again and again not to cross her boundaries but he was making it hard for her. Shentu Jing was really too tempting!

If this keeps up, Qin Zhuzhu fears that she might do something silly to him.

Hmmm..... Maybe she should draw a turtle on his face? What a good idea! He can take that as a little punishment for causing her trouble tonight.

She saw a marker pen on the table by the bedside behind Shentu Jing so she tried to reach it. Just as her fingers were about to touch it, Shentu Jing suddenly moved and grabbed hold of her arm.

Qin Zhuzhu froze.

Then he took her hand and rubbed his cheeks against it, mumbling something.

Oh dear.... Qin Zhuzhu tried to take her hand back but Shentu Jing wouldn’t let go of it.

The two slept on the same bed but without anything hanky panky going on.

Not long later when Qin Zhuzhu was sleeping soundly, Shentu Jing opened his eyes.

Did you really think you could draw a turtle on my face?
