519 Rewards & Punishments
Although Darren was caught off-guard, he was really amused by this wife of his. You see, people always said that she's an unexpected person. Wasn't it true? She was the most random person!
Even now, he really had no idea where these handcuffs or blindfolds came from but did he really care? In all honesty, he didn't give a damn about it!
As long as the one 'binding' him was this woman he loved the most, then the rest didn't matter. However, he really thought this 'binding' wasn't necessary. He was already ensnared by her charms.
Xiu who didn't have any idea what was running through his mind simply focused on what she had planned already. She guided him through the lounge and brought him to the bedroom. Placing her hands on his shoulders, she pressed him down. f𝑟e𝒆𝘸𝒆𝙗𝒏ov𝒆l - 🅽🅽novel
Darren obediently sat down on the bed and asked, "What exactly are you up to?"
"What do you think?" Xiu's voice low, almost like a whisper with a seductive touch to it. And the way her each breath fanned his earlobe was not making it any easier for him at all.
Soon, he felt like she walked away and was fiddling with something because he could vaguely hear something. Waiting patiently, he decided to resign himself to his fate. And he had named Xiu as his 'fate' which meant, he was just handing himself to her to do what she pleased.
Meanwhile, Xiu was looking at that black whip in her hand with a complicated look in her eyes. The bedroom was lit with candles that she specially asked for from Gigi earlier. And even the whip was one of the things she asked for in a moment of haste. But now when she looked at his Baobei's smooth unblemished skin and looked at this crude whip in her hand, she threw it away as if it burned her hands.
There was no way she was able to hurt him physically. No matter how it was written on the internet, she really didn't think such a thing could 'please' anyone. In the end, one shouldn't blindly trust the internet!
With this thought, she nodded her head firmly and came to Darren's side. Slowly, she sat down on his legs and circled her arms around his neck as she stated, "Baobei, do you know what am I about to do?"
"I honestly have no idea, " replied Darren calmly.
Xiu frowned, "Then why are you so calm?"
He leaned close to her body finding that comforting scent and warmth of hers as he replied, "Because you're here."
Xiu stared at his face for a long time. One might think that the blindfold and handcuffs were some sort of a game she was playing but in all honesty, Xiu's only thought was that if she looked into his eyes, she'll lose her resolve. And if his hands touched her skin, she'll really forget why she came all the way here.
After all, she was obsessed with her gray eyes and those hands of his.
So, to keep herself on the right track, she had to take some measurements. Because what she had to say or ask was really important.
Sighing heavily, she lifted her hand and her fingers traced over his face in slow motion."I need some answers, " she began with a faint smile."I'll ask, you'll answer. If I liked the answer..." her lips pressed against his taking him by surprise."There will be a reward. But if I didn't like the answer..." she bit his earlobe making him yelp."There will be punishment." Stroking his face, she continued, "Make sure I like the answers." And what she didn't say out loud was that, 'Because I have no idea how to punish you. '
Darren's lips tugged into a smile but as he was aware of her questions, he couldn't bring himself to smile broadly. However, he couldn't run from this situation either.
"I'll answer honestly, " replied Darren.
Xiu took a moment to gather her thoughts before she asked, "The reason you had been avoiding to talk about your father... Was it because you don't like talking about him? Or was it because your father is Zhou Xichen?"
"Although I don't talk about my dad very often, it doesn't mean I don't like talking about it. Yes, I was avoiding it before you because my dad is Zhou Xichen."
Xiu had expected that reply. She knew it in her heart. This idiot had been doing everything keeping her happiness in view. How was it possible that he'd bring up something so closely related to her past life?
Xiu kissed his forehead and said, "Thanks for thinking about me!"
"That's it for the reward? Aren't you being stingy?" he grumbled unhappily with a bit of disappointment visible in his tone.
Xiu giggled softly, "But I didn't say I liked the answer." Darren's lips parted slightly as if he wanted to say something but Xiu beat him to it, "Just because I didn't dislike the answer doesn't mean I liked it either." She patted his head gently as she added, "Don't be greedy now."
Darren pouted but didn't complain about it. As she said, he shouldn't be greedy.
"Since Zhou Xichen is your father that makes Zhou Jinhai your..."
"Half-brother, " Darren finished the sentence for Xiu who kept nodding without a word but because of this blindfold, he couldn't see it.
"And were you planning on hiding your father for good?" she asked another question.
Darren shook his head back and forth, "No, of course not. Hiding it for this long had already been gnawing at my consciousness. I don't think I can ever hide anything from you. In fact, I was about to tell you the truth right after coming back." He pursed his lips before adding, "I just never thought that you'd come here so suddenly."
"So, you didn't want me here?" questioned Xiu while raising her brow.
Darren wanted to embrace her tightly but realized his hands were tied. He couldn't hug her. What the hell! Wasn't this the real punishment right now?!
