The moment she was held.
Chen Ziming's body stiffened.
Subconsciously, he reached out his arms, wanting to embrace her.
Hold her tighter, then lean down and give her a deep kiss.
And then take her home.
But he restrained himself.
He couldn't be easily swayed by her again; the lessons from the previous two times were too profound.
He didn't want to experience that again.
"Let me go," a deep, displeased voice sounded from above. Su Yue looked up, meeting his gaze, which had turned cold and devoid of emotion.
But she wasn't afraid.
"You're not mad at me anymore, okay?" Her voice was soft, her arms wrapped tightly around his waist, her expression pitiful.
Chen Ziming stared at her delicate face for a while.
Su Yue thought he was about to relent.
But to her surprise, his expression became even colder. "Su Yue, in your eyes, am I that cheap?"
Her heart skipped a beat. She slowly released him, her large eyes filled with astonishment.
"What do you mean?" she asked.
"What do you think?" The man leaned down slightly, looking into her eyes, and retorted.
Seeing that she couldn't articulate anything, Chen Ziming gave a cold laugh and answered for her.
"You flirt when you want to, discard me when you're done playing, and then come back and act cute to make up."
"Is that how I am in your heart?"
His voice wasn't loud, nor was it dangerous, it lacked any strong emotion.
But it was precisely this that made him more terrifying than if he had been angry.
Su Yue was too stunned to speak.
Seeing this, Chen Ziming didn't say more. He stood up straight, intending to go around her and pull open the curtains.
"Director Chen," Su Yue, still trying to quell her panic, grabbed his hand.
He glanced at her hand, suppressing the urge to grip it. He didn't move, waiting for her to speak.
"What do I have to do for you not to be angry? However you want me to coax you, I will, okay?"
Her voice was gentle. She added, "I originally wanted to give you a surprise on Saturday. Everything was prepared at home. I didn't expect to see you so soon."
"Don't be angry anymore, alright."
At this point, she couldn't help but embrace him again.
His words truly surprised Chen Ziming.
His expression did indeed soften slightly.
But the resolve not to be easily swayed by her hadn't disappeared.
Having a surprise wasn't a reason for her to ignore him after returning to the country.
"I don't have time to think about these things." His voice remained cold, but he no longer told her to let go.
"Then can you think about them now?" The girl in his arms looked up again, her bright, spirited eyes sparkling.
He had to admit, she was much more beautiful than she had been two years ago.
She was more mature, intelligent, and confident in her beauty.
He looked at her face, which he had missed for so long, and felt her fragrant, soft body.
Even if he tried to hide it, he couldn't conceal the burning desire in his eyes.
A smile appeared on the girl's face, and she held him tighter. "Can you take me home, Director Chen?"
Silence stretched between them for a long time.
It was as if something was pulling and struggling in the darkness.
"No," After a long pause, the man's thin lips parted, uttering these two words.
Su Yue froze for a moment.
She knew this time would be difficult to appease.
But she hadn't expected it to be this difficult.
"Director Chen," she panted slightly, but didn't let go, "If you want me to coax you, you have to give me a chance."
She was testing him.
His answer would reveal his true feelings towards her.
Su Yue believed he was just angry.
Not that he had lost feelings for her.
Chen Ziming also understood her intention. He lowered his gaze, his eyelashes trembling slightly.
Finally, he spoke his reply: "Find your own chance."
Find her own chance…
Fortunately, he was just angry.
"Okay," she released her arms, her eyes curving into a smile. "I'll find a chance."
Then she picked up her bag, waved at him, and prepared to leave.
Chen Ziming watched her retreating back, feeling a surge of annoyance. He clenched his fist but said nothing.
Su Yue's hand was already on the doorknob.
With a slight twist, it would unlock and open the door.
But she stopped.
She turned around and approached the young police officer in his uniform again.
Chen Ziming subtly relaxed his fist, but his expression remained calm and indifferent. "Is there something else?"
"Mmm." Su Yue dropped her bag back onto the table, raised her arm, and placed it on his shoulder. Before he could react, she pushed him onto the chair.
The next second, she skillfully straddled him.
"Get down." Understanding what she was about to do, he frowned and softly demanded.
"Director Chen told me to find my own chance." A seductive smile spread across her beautiful face.
Just like the first time she kissed him in the car.
She cupped his face with both hands.
And gently kissed him.
