Chapter 229 - When will you stop crying?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
She still cried. She cried so movingly and despairingly it felt as if the sky had fallen and earth had cracked open.
He dipped his head toward her again to suckle hard on her lips in hopes of stopping her tears from falling through this. His uneven teeth marks could be seen on her soft lips.
That did not stop her from crying, and, in fact, her tears poured more furiously than ever.
A sullen expression instantly crept into his face, and he kissed her more aggressively this time as he panted, "Stop crying!"
The woman in his arms neither avoided nor accepted his kiss. His gentle tone did not stop her from crying. She simply burrowed her face in her palms as she sobbed, refusing to acknowledge or even look at him.
This made him frown.
She was giving him the silent treatment!
Was she, perhaps, waging a cold war with him? Was she protesting against his lack of empathy or loving tenderness, or was she unhappy that, unlike Gu Xingze, he was not a pillar of support for her when she was vulnerable?
The thought of that superstar irked him.
D*mn!
"Stupid woman, when are you going to stop crying?"
She ignored his glare. With her face still buried in her palms, he could not see her expression.
He narrowed his eyes dangerously. Reaching out, he slowly pried her hands open until he saw her tear-stained face.
Her whole face was puffy and flushed; her blood-shot eyes were especially like that.
She could not stop her tears from flowing even though her face was already dripping wet. It made one wonder: How could she hold lots of tears in the first place?
There was a saying: 'Women are made of water.' Was this the reason for the endless tears in her eyes?
The man was totally defenseless against her tears. His heart instantly softened!
He never wanted to see her cry. He felt upset with this crybaby, yet he could not do anything about it!
"Alright, stop crying now!" He was at her mercy finally!
He could not help lowering his head to kiss away the tears at the corner of her eyes. They were salty and warm, with a tinge of indescribable bitterness.
He gently closed his eyes and kissed her lips once more. This time, unlike his aggressive past attempts, he only placed a light peck on her lips.
With his head still lowered, he went on to kiss her tears, forehead, nose bridge, cheeks, and lips. His lips indefinitely lingered on hers this time around.
The kiss on her lips was not usurping like before and was gentle and carefully light, instead. She was confounded by this tenderness she had previously not experienced from him.
The affection, tenderness, emotions, and delicacy of a woman could be perceived in this kiss.
The man had gracefully removed his shirt while she was in a daze.
His broad chest and sexy collar bones were revealed in the open. It was clear that he had been trying his best to suppress his desire.
However, unlike his conquering attitude in the past, he was careful and gentle with her now.
She unknowingly stopped crying and widened her eyes in disbelief. The sudden change in him was too much for her to resist!
His image was blurry as she looked at him through wet eyes. Her mind was still trying to discern the situation as he gently kissed and advanced on her…
