Sarah furrowed her eyebrows and glanced at him fiercely. “Xavier Marshall, it’s just two minor prescriptions only. You don’t need to give yourself to me. I’m still a high school student, I don’t date.”“Hahaha!” Roxane burst out laughing, “Sixth brother, are you an old cow trying to eat young grass [1]?”“What do you know? Sarah’s already over 18. She’s an adult. She and I are a perfect match made in heaven. You should give us your blessing.” Xavier was dissatisfied with Roxane’s sarcasm.“Sarah, it’s the first time I’ve ever given flowers to a woman, so just take it, eh?”“What if I don’t take it?”“I’ll die of sadness,” Xavier replied as he got down on one knee, taking the pose usually done during proposals as his way of asking for a relationship. “Sarah, be my girlfriend. You’re my love, you’re my angel, you’re my little star.”Sarah almost threw up. She said, “If I take your flowers, will you leave and not bother me while I'm eating my breakfast?” She had not had enough food,
It was clearly a voice, but it sounded like a rumble of thunder for everyone who was on the scene.Every single person there turned their heads at the same time to the direction of upstairs after hearing the voice.James’ upright figure was standing proudly at the front part of the corridor railing upstairs. His passionate gaze was falling on Sarah who was also staring at him.“F*ck! James, you’re awake?” Xavier was the first to snap back to reality, shouting in disbelief.The voice of his only lasted for a moment. Everyone who was either inside or outside the house who could rush over, came immediately. The living room was dark and full of people, it was almost similar to the exciting scene last night.“John…” James did not even look at Xavier but his eyes glared coldly toward John.John, who had never expected James to wake up so fast, was in a daze. He only came to his senses when he heard James calling him out again. John then strode toward Xavier and carried Xavier on his sh
As Sarah’s eyes followed the length of the shadow, James’s upright stature, that made it look like they were at a shrine, appeared right in front of her. When she reached out, she could touch his body, just like when they slept at a distance while sharing the same bed last night.However, when Sarah saw that his pair of eyes were opened, she panicked. “I… I don’t know you. Please don’t look at me like that.”This was the normal psychological reaction that Sarah had been playing in her mind.This man was as handsome as a painting when he was asleep. It would be harmless to enjoy more of his handsomeness. It was harmless in his handsomeness.However, at that moment, he was right in front of her. It did not matter whether he was slightly thin, but there was only an adjective left to describe him which was ‘walking hormones’ [1]. He was very manly.He was so manly to the extent that it made her heart beat faster when he was merely looking into her eyes.At that moment, she finally un
“How can I not worry? If it wasn’t for Sarah, you’d be a rotten corpse by now,” said Wendy, who had taken the elevator and came down, without thinking.Once James heard that sentence, he picked up the small spoon that he put down just now, scooped up a mouthful of congee, and fed it into his mouth. Since Sarah said that he could only eat congee, so he would only eat congee.“James, quickly let mum see. Are you fully recovered?” Wendy excitedly pulled up James’ arm.“Sssh…” James hissed in a low voice.Wendy was taken aback for a second. Only then did she remember that this arm of James was injured. However, he used the same arm to hold Sarah’s hand just now, so she had forgotten that he was injured.“Does it still hurt?” Do you want me to call the doctor?”“Sarah’s here,” the man faintly replied as he continued eating his congee.Wendy was so happy that she could not eat anymore. She excitedly went back to her seat and watched James eat his congee.The way the man was eating hi
The little steamed dumpling that had been bitten fell onto the plate. The soup within the dumpling splashed everywhere and very unceremoniously onto James’ face.Sarah hurriedly took a piece of wet wipe and cleaned James’ face; which was so handsome, it could overwhelm the whole nation.Well, at least she felt that his face could be described as such then.If she did not wipe it, it would be vandalism—it would destroy James’ charming face.The soup from the little steamed dumpling was slowly being cleaned up with a wet wipe.Sarah was touching James’ face just like last time as if there was nothing wrong with this at all.However, when she finished wiping it off and her fingertip accidentally touched the man’s lips, she suddenly realized that he was awake and remembered the dream she had last night.“I’m… I’m sorry.” She was used to it, so she wiped this person’s face without even asking.Luckily, James was a living person with arms and legs.However, James acted like he had n
“I’m full, James. I’ll be leaving.” The table was full of delicious food, but Sarah did not have any appetite at that moment, even though her favorite little steamed dumpling was on the table.As Sarah walked into the elevator and was about to press the close button, James swiftly followed her in.He was standing right beside Sarah.James’ 190cm of height completely enveloped Sarah’s petiteness.The elevator door was slowly closing.Light reflected on the wall of the elevator. It was a shadow of two figures, one tall and one short standing side by side.That image made Sarah subconsciously turn to the other side. She strangely found it difficult to breathe when she was standing too close to James.However, when she took a step to the other side, James followed her like a shadow and stood side by side with her.Sarah pursed her lips and simply did not move. “James, since when did you know that the outfit that I’m wearing cost three hundred and sixty-six thousand bucks?”It was
It was icy-cold.Like jelly.A familiar image flashed through Sarah’s mind like an electric shock.It was the same image as last night.Soft.Gentle.It was mixed with the fresh and tempting scent of a man.Sarah finally came to her senses.It was not a dream last night.It was simply this man trying to tease her last night.She was stupid enough to think that what happened last night was a dream up until then.When she recalled the text message sent by John, he told her that James had woken up. It was the truth, but she refused to believe it.Sarah opened her eyes widely and said, “James, you woke up some time ago, didn’t you? You’ve been lying to me.”At that point, she understood what was going on even when her brain was slow to understand.It was just that she had been searching for how he woke up.Suddenly, a message flashed into her mind.The swastika jade and her birthmark.Sarah finally understood that it was not only the Nine Meridians and Eight Veins method t
“James Marshall, don’t even think about it! I don’t like you. I really, really don’t like you. I despise you, and I hate you! You get up now,” The more Sarah thought about it, the more she felt wronged and the tearier her eyes became. She started sobbing, and her voice became hoarse.When James saw her with no intention to stop crying, he slowly got up, took a wet wipe, and handed it to her. He comforted her with his baritone voice. “Don’t cry. I promise you, I won’t kiss you anymore.”When Sarah heard the man’s lonely voice, her heart inexplicably choked for a second.No, he deserved it.Sarah sniffled and wiped her tears. She then stood up and started packing her things.As she was packing, James stood by the bedside and watched in silence.It seemed like he wanted to say something, but nothing came out from him.Discounting the study materials she brought with her, everything in this bedroom, including the clothes she was wearing, belonged to the Marshall family so there real
