Chapter 427: Just Pounce on Him

When Mu Jingzhe felt him hold her hand, she turned around and looked at Ji Buwang’s serious expression, unable to stop smiling. She hadn’t expected him to do such a thing.

But she loved it.

That night, Ji Buwang couldn’t bear to let go of Mu Jingzhe’s hand. He had no idea that his friend had seen his small actions.

His friends were all experienced and knew what was going on. They didn’t expose him. They only stole a few glances while the duo wasn’t paying attention.

Inevitably, they were pressed for details on how the two of them had met and how they had fallen in love. Ji Buwang said everything he could. Because he was so happy, he even drank beer with them.

Drinking with friends was meant to liven things up. As long as one didn’t go overboard, Mu Jingzhe felt that it was all good. It wasn’t their intention to force Mu Jingzhe to drink, but Mu Jingzhe happily drank two glasses of beer nonetheless.

In the end, Ji Buwang drank a little too much. He wasn’t completely drunk, but he was a little tipsy. His emotions got a little worked up, and he became braver. Hence, when he got up, he still held Mu Jingzhe’s hand, refusing to let go.

After drinking beer and, before that, water, Mu Jingzhe wanted to go to the washroom, but Ji Buwang refused to let her go. In front of his friends, Mu Jingzhe couldn’t say what she wanted to do directly. Ji Buwang thought that Mu Jingzhe was joking, so he insisted on holding her hand and even used two hands to hold her.

In the end, Mu Jingzhe almost beat him up. It was only upon sensing Mu Jingzhe’s formidable aura that he let go of her, feeling aggrieved. Then, he went to the washroom himself. When he returned and saw that Mu Jingzhe was smiling, he quietly took her hand and refused to let go again.

His friends were too embarrassed to look at Ji Buwang. No one had expected Ji Buwang to be like this and have such a secret side.

It was this minor incident that made them realize that Ji Buwang seemed to be a little afraid of Mu Jingzhe. When they got married in the future, he would inevitably be a henpecked husband.

Although it was funny, because Ji Buwang couldn’t drive after drinking, he asked the driver to take them back.

When Mu Jingzhe and Ji Buwang first got in the back seat, they were sitting on either side, but Ji Buwang refused to do so and went to sit in the middle, clinging to Mu Jingzhe.

Mu Jingzhe had no choice but to let him cling to her. Not only was Ji Buwang holding her hand, but he also kept looking at Mu Jingzhe with sparkling eyes.

“Jingzhe, you’re really good-looking…”

Mu Jingzhe coughed and glanced at the driver in the front. She whispered, “I know.”

Ji Buwang was delighted that she had acknowledged this and held her hand. “Jingzhe, your hands are soft and beautiful…

“And so is your nose. Your nose looks good too…”

Mu Jingzhe chuckled. “Got it.”

“Your eyes look nice as well. Jingzhe, your eyes are the most beautiful. They look like jewels and stars, sparkling like…”

Mu Jingzhe was afraid that the driver would laugh, so she quickly held his hand. “Alright, I understand. Stop talking.”

“It’s true, I’m not lying.” Ji Buwang was anxious. Everything he had said was the truth, and he was merely saying out loud what had been in his heart all along. Beauty was in the eye of the beholder. At that moment, Mu Jingzhe was a beauty in Ji Buwang’s eyes.

She was naturally happy to be praised like this. She even found it sweet, but there was a driver in the front seat.

The driver was very professional. He didn’t peek or make a sound and instead stayed focused on driving. However, he could still move his ears. He was expressionless, but when he heard Ji Buwang’s silly praise, he would move his ears.

Mu Jingzhe accidentally saw it and felt a little shy. “Got it. I’m aware I’m good-looking now. You can stop praising me.”

“No, I’m not done praising you. Jingzhe, your mouth looks good too…”

As he praised her, he even moved toward her, his Adam’s apple throbbing and his eyes staring straight at her as if he wanted to take a bite.

Mu Jingzhe’s heart skipped a beat. She glanced at the driver and covered his mouth before pushing him away. “Mm, yeah, it looks good. You drank too much. Buwang, go ahead and sleep if you want.”

Previously, she had mentally prepared herself for this and the two of them had even gone into the woods, but he still hadn’t taken action. In the end, after drinking, he finally wanted to take action, but there was someone there!

“I didn’t drink too much. I’m sober. I don’t want to sleep. I want to look at you. I’m not done praising you…”

Upon hearing Ji Buwang even praise her beautiful ears and neck, Mu Jingzhe was afraid that it might be a bad idea to let him continue praising her, so she covered his mouth again.

“Alright, alright. I know I’m good-looking already. Buwang, give it a rest.”

Ji Buwang looked at Mu Jingzhe carefully and realized that she was paying attention to the driver in the front seat. After staring at the driver in front of them a few times, he suddenly leaned over toward Mu Jingzhe’s ear. “I know. I won’t let him hear me compliment any other parts of you.”

Ji Buwang’s voice was a little hoarse because he was drunk to begin with. After he lowered his voice, it became even more celebrity-like. He leaned close to Mu Jingzhe’s ear just like that, making her freeze.

“I… I understand. Move back a little.” These words were too stimulating. What did he mean by that?

Ji Buwang frowned and moved away. He blinked at Mu Jingzhe’s uncomfortable expression and suddenly leaned over. “Jingzhe, I’m dizzy. Let me lean on you for a while.”

“Okay, go ahead. Be good.”

Mu Jingzhe let Ji Buwang lean on her shoulder and let out a sigh of relief as she looked out of the car window. Just as she started to relax, Ji Buwang suddenly leaned closer and spoke into Mu Jingzhe’s ear.

“Jingzhe, I’m glad you said I was your boyfriend tonight. I liked it a lot. I like you and I’d like for all my friends to get to know you.”

He was very close to her, and his voice was hoarse. As he spoke, his breath landed on her neck. Mu Jingzhe froze, and her face turned hot. For the first time, she realized that she had a weakness for charismatic voices. These words made her heart skip a beat.

Mu Jingzhe was stiff and had yet to react when Ji Buwang took her hand. “Jingzhe, why aren’t you saying anything? Do you like me? Look at me…”

Ji Buwang tilted his head and looked at Mu Jingzhe. In combination with his magnetic voice, he became extremely seductive. Especially since his hand was holding hers, and his fingers were grazing her palm intentionally or unintentionally. The sensation was numbing and it affected her heart.

Meanwhile, Ji Buwang was defenseless, as if he was silently inviting her to do whatever she wanted.

What the heck! This was the first time Mu Jingzhe realized that Ji Buwang was so seductive. She simply wanted to press him down and pounce on him.

Mu Jingzhe almost couldn’t control herself. She only came back to her senses when the car jolted.

She grabbed Ji Buwang, who almost fell, and said, “Sit properly. Don’t look at me like that.”

“I don’t have the strength to do that,” Ji Buwang muttered.

Mu Jingzhe helplessly let him lean on her shoulder. “Alright, be good. Stop making a fuss.”

As she spoke, she grabbed his hands to stop him from moving.

Ji Buwang obeyed and stopped making a fuss. Mu Jingzhe heaved a sigh of relief. “If you’re tired, close your eyes.”

Ji Buwang closed his eyes for a few seconds before opening them again. A smile flashed across his lips, glimmering with a hint of delight and cunning.

He had discovered Mu Jingzhe’s secret. Usually, she was very generous and wouldn’t be so embarrassed. On the other hand, he appeared a little useless in front of her. In her presence, he was also nervous and often felt vexed.

However, just now, he had realized that Jingzhe’s ears were red. It turned out that she couldn’t resist his voice…

Ji Buwang felt that he could do this sort of thing a few more times in the future.
