"For you, I could give up even the most beautiful woman." He said, half-joking, half-serious. Annie silently stared at him for a while, then smiled faintly, "Dr. Tao, you’re really someone... people love and hate." "If you both love and hate me, I’d be honored." The man’s eyes were unusually dark and bright. Annie gazed into his eyes, and both of them fell silent without speaking. The atmosphere grew ambiguous, with an inexplicable attraction drawing them slowly closer. ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net Tao Hua’s lips gently touched hers, pecking lightly bit by bit. Annie slightly parted her red lips, closed her eyes dreamily, offering a silent invitation. The man’s eyes darkened, and he forcefully clasped her nape, kissing her fiercely. His kiss was overbearing, even a bit rough. Annie couldn’t keep up with his pace, continuously letting out broken moans and whimpers. Tao Hua did not close his eyes but looked at her intently, watching her eyelashes flutter like black butterflies, seeing her shy and enchanting expression, observing every charm that was hers alone. His hand wandered slowly on her back, the scorching caress stimulating Annie even more. Just before she was about to suffocate, he reluctantly let her go, giving her no chance to react, pulling her toward the car, and hastily pushing her inside. Tao Hua got into the car from the other side, starting the engine with uneven breaths. Annie had already caught her breath at this point, she giggled, "Are you really going to abandon your beauty and leave with me?" Tao Hua glanced at her, smiled mischievously, "It’s not me leaving with you, it’s you leaving with me. Don’t worry, no one can harm her." He simply said this without wanting to explain too much. But Annie heard it with a different meaning. Is it because you won’t let anyone harm her? Annie looked out at the night scenery through the window, smiling lightly. Even though he was really assured about Wushuang, Tao Hua still gave her a call. "Hey, Little Shuangshuang, I’ve run into something urgent, can you get back by yourself?" Receiving Tao Hua’s call and hearing him say this, Wushuang was not at all surprised. It’s just that he called her Little Shuangshuang, as if she was really young. "I think it’s more like you encountered something urgent with your acquaintance." Wushuang teasingly laughed and said. Tao Hua laughed heartily, "It really is urgent, you little kids don’t ask so much." Wushuang rubbed her forehead in annoyance. In his eyes, he indeed saw her as a little girl. Although she’s a younger sister, it doesn’t mean all younger sisters are naive little girls. "Alright, you go handle your urgent matter. I can get back by myself without any problem." "Wushuang, you’re really the best. It’s my fault today; I’ll treat you to a meal next time. Sweetheart, that’s it, I’m hanging up, bye-bye." Wushuang was speechless; now he’s calling her sweetheart. But she had to admit, Tao Hua was really good to her, he sincerely treated her as a sister. After hanging up, Tao Hua turned and asked Annie with a smile, "I was on the phone with my Little Shuangshuang, you weren’t jealous, were you?" Suddenly, Annie felt an inexplicable irritation in her heart, the corner of her mouth curled into a cold smile, her tone had an anger she herself hadn’t noticed. "You’re really overthinking. Who are you to me that I should be jealous?" Tao Hua’s eyes darkened, but he still maintained his signature fox-like smile. "Listen, your tone clearly shows you’re jealous." he said with a playful laugh.
