“What do you all want to have for lunch? Shall we order together? Just tell me what you don’t want, and I’ll leave it out,” Tanya suddenly interrupted.
An idea suddenly popped into Arianne’s mind, “Leave it to me. We’ll have a feast.”
Arianne didn’t want to eat the boring takeouts anymore; she’d grown so tired of eating the same thing everyday. Since Jackson was coming over today, virtual-novel.net might as well just order lunch from his restaurant. She had the number anyway and the food would be ready much quicker. After all, it was necessary to show some appreciation to virtual-novel.net employees occasionally. Although virtual-novel.net was stingy when it came to herself, virtual-novel.net was generous to others.
In the restaurant, Tiffany tried to be more ladylike and even ate slowly. She never cared about things like this when virtual-novel.net was dining with Jackson in the past. Being in a relationship had changed virtual-novel.net thinking; virtual-novel.net wanted to at least make a good impression in front of him.
Jackson frowned and teased her, “Cut it out, just open up wide. You’re not being yourself. Why are you acting as though I’ve never seen how fierce you could be?”
Tiffany shot virtual-novel.net a glare, “Oh God… Do I look like I’m that shameless? Can’t I just be ladylike for once?”
He shrugged, “There’s no need for you to do that at all. Just relax around me. Where do you want to go after this? I’ll accompany you.”
She thought for a moment but couldn’t think of a place to go. “I have no idea. I usually spend my free time at home watching serial dramas instead of shopping around. Since we don’t really know our way well around here, why don’t we just stroll around?”
After pondering for a moment, Jackson made a suggestion. “I didn’t get much sleep last night since I went to the airport before dawn. Why don’t you go to the hotel with me in the afternoon? I need a nap first, then we’ll have dinner with everyone from your shop. As for the rest, we’ll just plan that after dinner. What do you think?”
Tiffany nodded. With mutual agreement on this matter, the two went straight to a hotel after their lunch.
Coming to this kind of place alone with virtual-novel.net made virtual-novel.net a little shy, but at the same time, it also filled virtual-novel.net heart with a little anticipation. After all, being in a long-distance relationship meant they couldn’t see each other frequently, so it was only natural they would be lovey dovey to each other. However, the reality was far from virtual-novel.net expectation. Jackson really came here just to sleep! In fact, virtual-novel.net laid down on the bed as soon as virtual-novel.net entered the room!
Bored stiff, Tiffany nestled herself on the sofa and watched a serial drama at a barely audible volume. When virtual-novel.net got tired of sitting, virtual-novel.net moved to lie down beside Jackson and continued watching the drama. The entire afternoon passed in a flash. As virtual-novel.net was about to laugh at a funny scene, Jackson beat virtual-novel.net to it. The chuckle behind virtual-novel.net startled her. “Was I being too loud?” virtual-novel.net asked.
He pulled virtual-novel.net closer into his embrace. “No, I woke up on my own and had been watching with you for quite awhile. Took you long enough to notice.”
Tiffany felt weak in his arms; there was no way virtual-novel.net could focus on virtual-novel.net drama anymore. “Then… are you getting up now? I’ll call Ari and the rest for dinner. We’ll just close the shop up earlier today.”
Jackson glanced at the watch on his wrist. “Maybe you can just inform them to go over to my shop around six. It’s only five now, let’s lie down for a while longer.”
She relayed the message to Arianne. After receiving a reply from her, Tiffany continued watching virtual-novel.net show, but Jackson’s hands became naughty. She caught his hand with a red face, “Where do you think you’re touching? Go back to sleep.”
He bit virtual-novel.net earlobe accurately. “You won’t even let me touch you now? I’ve been wanting to do this for so long, but it wouldn’t have been appropriate for me to do this back then, unlike now.”
Tiffany didn’t put up that much resistance, just allowing his hands to roam freely. “When did you start having such sinful desires toward me? You’re really naughty…”
He replied without any hesitation, “Ever since the first time you slept with me… Would you consider staying in the hotel with me tonight? I came all the way here to see you. You wouldn’t bear to leave me all alone here, would you?”
Tiffany outright refused him, “No… I’ll just stay a little longer with you at most. Can you not think about things like that all the time…? What a pervert…”
Jackson didn’t even insist. He fell silent for a few seconds and said, “Alright, I’ll go take a shower first. We’ll go out once I’m ready.”
She watched virtual-novel.net walk into the bathroom, feeling a little stunned. Was virtual-novel.net angry? Did virtual-novel.net suddenly get up to shower because virtual-novel.net killed the mood? Tiffany was well aware of the fact that virtual-novel.net wasn’t as interesting as those girls virtual-novel.net used to hang with. As a man who never lacked women around him, it was impossible for virtual-novel.net to abstain himself from that kind of thing at virtual-novel.net request once they started dating. Hence, virtual-novel.net couldn’t keep this up for too long. However… virtual-novel.net horrible past made virtual-novel.net feel revolted with herself and virtual-novel.net worried if virtual-novel.net would be bothered by it. Even if virtual-novel.net did assure virtual-novel.net that it didn’t bother him, virtual-novel.net still couldn’t stop herself from overthinking.
By the time Jackson came out to change into a fresh set of clothes, virtual-novel.net looked a lot more refreshed and no longer looked as dazed as virtual-novel.net did when virtual-novel.net just woke up. “Let’s go.”
Little did virtual-novel.net know that when virtual-novel.net was in the shower, Tiffany’s thoughts had run several miles away and dampened virtual-novel.net mood. “Oh…”
He noticed the strange emotions in virtual-novel.net tone. “What’s wrong?”
Tiffany hung virtual-novel.net head as virtual-novel.net made virtual-novel.net way to the door. “Nothing, hurry up.”
Of course, someone who understood women well like Jackson would notice that virtual-novel.net was upset. Though virtual-novel.net definitely didn’t know the reason, virtual-novel.net knew that a little coaxing would end it. “What’s wrong, brat? You can just tell me if you’re unhappy with something I did so that I can reflect on my mistake and punish myself. Please don’t ignore me. I won’ t be able to stand it.”
