Chapter 111 - Forty Minutes In Cold!

Su Yin stood rooted to the ground, her eyes radiating the glow emanating from the man's stunning appearance albeit his anxious expression.

After what seemed like eternity Su Yin slowly pulled herself back and walked, trying to ignore the man alas, her footsteps alarmed the man and he zoomed towards her in astonishing speed.

Su Yin was abruptly pulled into a strong embrace, she was almost suffocated by the tight hold. Infuriated, Su Yin kicked the man aiming directly at his shin. The man jerked lightly but didn't loosen his hold on her.

"Adrian, let go! Let me go..", Su Yin kicked him again and again and again.

Adrian didn't let her go, instead he kissed her silky smooth hair shocking Su Yin, she instantly stopped struggling and stood obediently letting him hold her.

At the Lu mansion, there were thunder clouds everywhere as Jinan was in a pretty bad mood.

With a grim expression on his face, Jinan sat sulking in his study without even bothering to tidy himself up, his clothes were stained and hair were messy, he was literally smelling like a cake albeit a rotten one.

Sera entered the study, she was almost tip toeing but Jinan sensed her presence and closed his eyes feigning sleep.

Sera was carrying a wet towel in her hands, she approached Jinan soundlessly and stood before him. Sera gave him a quick once-over and sighed with a smile, even Jinan's hands were dirty, the cake batter had stuck on his fingers coloring his nails black.

Sera squatted down and took in Jinan's hands into her own small ones. He just sat still and let her do her thing without bothering her.

Jinan didn't even glance at Sera, she softly wiped his hands with the warm wet towel.

"Brother, I'm sorry..", with an earnest voice Sera sincerely apologized for hurting Jinan.

"I'm really sorry..", saying that Sera continued to wipe his other hand, then his forehead, his cheeks and nose.

"I'm really really sorry..", Sera dawdled, she stood up and extended her hands picking up the tiny egg shells from his hair.

Sera lightly wiped his dirty hair with the towel as though she was drying his hair, albeit smelly his hair didn't look that messy.

"Brother, I'm really sorry okay. How about this? Let's go and eat your cake now, next time I'll cook something for you..", as soon as Sera spoke those words Jinan's eyes shot open and he hastily stood up.

"No!", his voice had a slight hint of terror in it.

"Don't even think of cooking..", his words cleared Sera's eyes held a mischievous glint, she put-on an aggrieved expression and nodded her head pitifully.

"Alright, I'm sorry.. now don't cry!", Jinan was gently coaxing her, his voice so soft and gentle, he looked especially charming.

"Then let's go, I want to eat the cake..", Sera dragged Jinan out.

"But..", Jinan tried to stop the little lady dragging him with all might.

"No buts, let's go now!", Sera didn't listen to Jinan and continued her arduous task.

"But the cake isn't decorated yet..", Jinan muttered unhappily, his doubt clearly visible on his face.

"Aunt Zhou has already done everything, she also praised it, I believe it will be really tasty...", Sera could sense the dubious feeling Jinan was having so she assured him.

"But Sera..", Jinan thought of something but Sera interrupted him again, she stopped in her track and turned to face Jinan.

"What? Are you still unhappy? Brother!! Please don't be like this, I'm sorry I really didn't mean it.. Whatever you make it's the most precious thing to me, I was just kidding before..."

Sera blabbed on and on making Jinan unconsciously gulp, his face puzzled face looked at Sera in disbelief, the way she was rambling it was so unlike her.

"I just want to take a shower and change..", after a brief silence Jinan finally spoke his thoughts and walked away leaving a stupefied Sera standing at the stairway. She laughed at herself, smacking her tiny forehead.

Adrian's heart that was racing out of his mouth moments ago had calmed down incredibly, he was in bliss right now with Su Yin in his arms, safe and sound.

"What are you doing here?", was the first thing Su Yin asked the smiling man after he let her go.

Adrian's smile cracked at her question, his blue eyes resembling the icy glaciers.

Su Yin gulped, taking a step back but the man blocked her, his large palm covering her daunt back like a cage.

"I believe you didn't forget our appointment tonight?", his voice was incredibly low, raising goosebumps on Su Yin's neck when his breath brushed past her.

"I..", Su Yin's mind went blank, she couldn't form sentences nor find words to rebuke the man.

"I'm standing here waiting for you, from the past forty minutes I've been trying to reach your cellphone why didn't you take it with you? When I saw that your was missing I decided to wait, finally you came back.."

Su Yin didn't hear anything except 'forty minutes', she was flabbergasted thinking that he was waiting for her, here outside, for nearly forty minutes in cold! Su Yin's heart almost melted at his words.

"Now answer me where did you go? So late.. answer me don't just stare at me!", his harsh tone woke Su Yin from her reverie and she blinked at him.

Thinking about the resolve she had made today, Su Yin took a deep breath then spoke in a calm voice.

"Spa.. I had gone to the spa! Satisfied? Now get back in your car and zoom out of my sight!", trying to sound tough Su Yin changed her tone of voice.

"Haha!! That was too funny..", Adrian couldn't stifle his laugh anymore and erupted in a peal of laughter listening to her gruff voice.

"Yinyin, I was just worried about you! Come on now, next time inform me first..", Adrian's actions were soft as he rubbed her head and planted a naive kiss on her forehead. His words shocking Su Yin greatly.

"Just go!", Su Yin pulled back from him and glared daggers at the man, she was melting in his warm gaze and clenched her fists to restrain her emotions.

"Okay then!", he walked leisurely to his car and Su Yin let out a sigh, soon the man turned around much to Su Yin's displeasure.

"What's he doing now!", she muttered under her breath.

Adrian was holding a large package in his hand and was standing beside her now, gesturing her to move ahead, she looked at him in confusion.

"Let's get inside, it's cold her..", saying that he walked in, Su Yin couldn't understand anything and she hurriedly followed behind.
