Indulging Mrs. Lu-Chapter 960 - 957: That Sensation Just Now Must Have Come From—Her Lips?

"Hey, you should do something. I can quit this field because I’m out of work, but you’re too lazy, so it’s better not to take risks."

He frowned, "What do you mean?"

"I mean, you can only make a living with your looks." Seriously, she had to spell it out so clearly.

Nangong Xuan: "..."

"Forget it, I won’t bring this up with you. The party is the day after tomorrow. Have you prepared your mask and costume?" Without waiting for Nangong Xuan to answer, she continued disdainfully, "Forget it, just the way you are—I’ll get it ready for you."

She spent an entire afternoon choosing outfits for him. While waiting for the call, she rested her chin on one hand, tapping the desk occasionally with the other.

Nangong Xuan found himself entranced as he watched.

Lately, he often found himself watching her, even without realizing it. Her gesture of resting her chin had already been deeply etched into his mind.

Finally, as the workday was ending, Lu Xinyun sighed in relief and smiled at him, "It’s finally done!"

He suddenly grew curious about what clothes she might choose for him, and walked over to her desk for the first time, pretending to check her computer.

Lu Xinyun, quick on the uptake, shut off the monitor as soon as he approached, leaving him with a blank screen.

She flashed a victorious smile and was about to declare her triumph when she suddenly froze.

Unbeknownst to her, Nangong Xuan was already next to her, incredibly close. His face hovered just above hers, so close that a slight lift of her head would brush against his chiseled features.

Lu Xinyun was stunned.

Once Nangong Xuan realized something was amiss, he leaned down slightly, his chin meeting a soft object, causing his brows to furrow and his jaw to tense from the warm sensation.

The sensation was strangely familiar, though he couldn’t pinpoint where he’d felt it before.

Before he could lower his eyes for a closer look, a forceful shove sent him backward. Looking in that direction again, he saw Lu Xinyun cupping her mouth, her face slightly flushed, glaring at him as if she wanted to pierce him with her stare.

Jerk! Taking advantage of her again!

Nangong Xuan’s eyes grew darker as he watched her. The sensation earlier probably came from—her lips?

If so, it made sense, considering they’d had an accidental "kiss" once before. Upon reflection, the sensation indeed was exactly the same.

Seeing Nangong Xuan shamelessly staring at her after taking advantage, Lu Xinyun gritted her teeth in anger, "Don’t look at me! Next time you take advantage, I’ll gouge your eyes out!"

Hearing that, Nangong Xuan not only didn’t get angry but laughed, too, provoked into laughter.

Since she said so, he might as well confirm the accusation. Besides, the sensation just now wasn’t something he could dislike.

Thinking that, Nangong Xuan adjusted his clothes and began walking step by step towards her.

Seeing this, Lu Xinyun thought it was bad, yet he blocked the only exit of her desk, leaving her with no room to retreat. She could only watch him warily, "What are you trying to do?"

Nangong Xuan looked at her with a mischievous smile, as bad as it could get. He said, "Didn’t you say I was taking advantage of you? If I don’t make sure of it, wouldn’t that be unfair to your words?"
