Finally, Qin Xue sighed and said,

“Whatever, let’s go with the flow. I’m so hungry. Let’s go eat. How did 1 end up falling asleep? I’ve learned so much that I didn’t even eat. My red-braised fish, red-braised pork ribs…they’re not as good once reheated. I really missed out.”

After speaking, she gently picked up a piece of clothing and covered Chu Molin’s stomach, then left the room and quietly closed the door behind her to go to the kitchen and begin heating the food.

Just as Qin Xue closed the bedroom door and headed for the kitchen, The man who was supposedly asleep opened his eyes, which were full of luster, lucid and clear as if he hadn’t been sleeping at all.

He turned his head towards the door, raised his hand and touched his brows and eyes, which Qin Xue had touched.

Then he extended his tongue to lick the lips she had just kissed, the corners of his mouth and his eyes filled with amusement. He said,

‘Qin Xue, it doesn’t matter who you are, how you got here. If you’ve come and disturbed my heart, then don’t even think of running away. No matter if you ultimately love me or not, I will never let you escape from me. Don’t even think about it.’

His eyes revealed his intent to win and immense possessiveness.

He, Chu Molin, was always highly alert in any situation.

Otherwise, if he let his guard down during his research missions, he could be caught off guard at any moment.

But Chu Molin never thought that he would fell asleep so soundly next to a woman.

Thinking of what she had said to him, if the woman was a spy sent by the enemy, he would be dead already.

That thought terrified him now, luckily, she wasn’t.

His alertness had decreased, and he knew he had to be careful in the future.

If Qin Xue hadn’t touched his brows and his eyes, he would have remained asleep.

If it wasn’t for the fact that he didn’t want her to be embarrassed, so he pretended to be asleep, he wouldn’t have discovered her secret.

When Qin Xue kissed him, he almost gave away his act.

Fortunately, she did not notice his change as she was engrossed in her own emotions.

Thanks to his previous rigorous training, you could even say it was perverted and cruel training.

Why was it called perverted and cruel? Because during his service, there was a mission where many undercovers were compromised due to a woman.

To him, there wasn’t a difference between men and women. He, of course, won that mission.

The only exception was when he was off duty, and was drugged by Qin Xue when he was recovering at her place.

So, he almost gave himself away when Qin Xue kissed him earlier.

The reason Chu Molin fell for Qin Xue was probably due to her eyes.

He couldn’t explain it, but he felt her eyes were different from other people’s from the moment he first saw her.

Those clear, almond- shaped eyes were untainted by the mundanity of the world.

For someone who was used to seeing the dark world, Chu Molin wanted to protect those eyes from being contaminated.

Hence, he didn’t guard himself when Qin Xue drugged him.

Her charming voice and her eyes led him into her trap for some reason.

After marriage, Chu Molin realized Qin Xue was far from innocent. She was a demon, an ungrateful one at that.

Chu Molin wondered where the previous Qin Xue went?

He wouldn’t get tangled up in it. The current Qin Xue was good.

He liked the current Qin Xue and hoped that the previous Qin Xue could find her own place in the world.

Yes, after yesterday’s interaction and what Qin Xue had just said,

Chu Molin, who is known as the Cold King, came up with a shocking conclusion: this Qin Xue is not the same Qin Xue.

Chu Molin, seduced by the smell of the food, sat up, put on his shoes, opened the door, and walked out.

He saw a woman wearing an apron, holding a plate of red-braised fish coming out of the kitchen. Her eyes were a bit swollen from the crying and the subsequent sleep.

Her demeanor was back to normal. Unless her eyes gave her away,

No one would have guessed that she was crying so sorrowfully earlier..
