"Puff-"
James Lu spat out a mouthful of icy water in his mouth that had not yet been swallowed.
James's discomfited. That unprecedented shame made him petrified there, like an ice sculpture.
His face was a little hot, and his mouth was also a little dry. He's fidgeting.
How could he do such a thing? He's caught going back on his own words. Thoroughly!
"What the f**k!"
After a long while, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but found that he couldn't say anything.
Elizabeth on the other side didn't know why he was stunned there, but she didn't think much about it. She turned around, put the dishes into the kitchen, and turned back to the living room.
She stared at James up and down with satisfaction, "It fits you well!" She felt the shirt was suitable for him at first sight. Now it seemed that she was right.
"F*cking!"
James finally came to his senses from embarrassment. And his shame turned into rages, "What do you know?! This is good-looking? Are you blind?"
"Er..." Elizabeth was stunned. She didn't know why he suddenly got so angry. She defended herself, "But it's really... looks good on you..."
James's not flattered by her praise. Instead, he's more disconcerted. "Not at all!" He put down the cup and pulled the clothes rudely as if he couldn't wait to tear them apart. "Who cares about this kind of clothes? Who wants to wear it?"
He began to untie the button. He hated it so much that he could take it off immediately. He wanted to throw it away as far as possible.
Elizabeth's baffled by James, who's mad. She thought for a while and immediately realized that this violent lion, seemed to be... shy.
What happened last night and his fidget all reminded her that he's being embarrassed. She was sure that she's right!
"Think about it. The young master of the Lu family was born with money, power, and status. He yelled not to wear it last night, but now he's caught on the spot. Just now, she didn't provoke him on purpose, but, he must be offended and humiliated."
"James..." When he unbuttoned three buttons, she suddenly said, "you..."
"What?!" He didn't stop and gave her back a fierce look.
"Are you... shy?"
James's hand shook, and he suddenly froze there.
Who could tell him what he had just heard? Was he shy? He was obviously angry? What the f*ck! In an instant, the large living room immediately quieted down.
Now, Elizabeth was completely convinced of her own thoughts.
For a moment, she felt that James was really childish and cute?
Two...
He was way taller than her, so when he slightly lowered his head, he could see her attentive face, as if she's focusing on something very important.
Maybe it's the jet lag. He only felt that his brain was not working well now. At this time, shouldn't he push her away and ridicule her for taking the opportunity to flirt with him?
However, he just held his breath and stood there as if he had been cast a spell. He couldn't even move an inch.
In his heart, there was a strange feeling, but he couldn't say what it was...
Three buttons...
She's now on the button under his neck carefully. There was still a little distance between his neck and hers, but he felt that his neck seemed to be strangled by her. He felt his breath hitched erratically, and he swallowed hard.
Looking at the clothes that were buttoned up again, Elizabeth suppressed her shyness and restlessness. She looked up at him with a smile. "Okay..."
The sudden voice completely woke up James Lu, who was in a daze.
Before Elizabeth could utter another word, she was pushed heavily by James away. She didn't expect it. Even if he didn't exert much strength, she still couldn't help but take two steps back.
"You..." James held back the flame in his heart and couldn't think of anything to say for a moment.
He turned around, poured a glass of icy water, raised his head, and drank a lot, before it was eased. Then he shouted at her, "Elizabeth! Who gave you the courage to touch me?!"
