"What are these?" Zhen Lang looked at the soft cushion mats that were laid on the floor and then looked at Jia Shao who was eagerly trying out the cushion mats.
She stepped on the soft cushion mats and showed an expression of satisfaction. Then she gestured to Zhen Lang for him to try as well. "Try them, don't they feel very soft and comfortable? Lying and rolling on them should not be a problem, right?"
His smile became deeper. "I told you that you can renovate the house as you wish. Since you want to use cushion mats instead of installing wooden floors in the living room, it works perfectly for me. It does feel good to roll on it and it is also big and convenient."
Jia Shao did not notice the strange expression on his face and jumped up with excitement. "Look, this living room is so big and since we don't entertain a lot, it is entirely for our own use. I had thought about this for a long time and had done it up like the Old Man's place. What do you think? We can train here!"
"It's okay with me." He looked at her jumping on the mats with joy like a happy cat and could not help but laugh out. "We can just roll around on it as we like, right?"
She nodded. "Of course!"
She does not like a big house because it gives her a sense of emptiness and desolation, and it also lacks liveliness. But due to her active personality, she prefers to have a big space so she had placed the sofa in one corner and covered the rest of the floor with large cushion mats just like in a training room.
Based on Zhen Lang's financial status, he can have any type of house but in the end, he had decided to have an ordinary house. For her, she just needed a large living room which is big enough to meet her requirements. As for the rest of the renovation, Zhen Lang had given her free rein and everything was completely for her to decide.
The entire 80 square meter living room was laid with thick soft cushion mats and even the sofa and coffee table were thrown into a corner.
"Do you like this?" Jia Shao sat down on the floor. She pulled the big bolster from the sofa and hugged it in her arms showing an expression that seemed to be seeking for praise. "All these are done by professionals. The mats can take pressure and gravitational force which is equivalent to the standards of the national team. They are also better than those in the Old Man's place."
"Is it so good?" He asked. "Have you tried it?"
"I feel it is good." Jia Shao quickly took over his bag and coat from his hands and she had an anxious expression on her face. "Try it....... Try it......."
Zhen Lang's fingers moved up to his cuffs and started to undo his cufflinks. The corners of his eyes curved up beautifully. "Trying out on my own is not interesting and also it will not give me the complete experience, right?"
Hugging his coat, she watched as he slowly undid his cufflinks. His movements could be said as indescribably chic and indescribably tempting.
What she likes best about him is this action of his.....with some laziness, with some satisfaction and so enticing.........until her heart is jumping crazily with emotions.
"Um......" Without taking her eyes off from him, she looked at him greedily and involuntarily asked. "So, shall we give it a try?"
Rolling his sleeves up to his elbows, he beamed a beautiful smile. "Okay."
For a moment, Jia Shao was astonished to receive such a quick reply from him. Normally, no matter how much she pressured, he would refuse to spar with her making her heart constantly itched for a fight. She really wanted to personally experience his power and his skill.
"Really?" The overjoyed Jia Shao quickly threw away the coat and bag in her hands. "You agree?"
He nodded slightly. "Yes."
"Then......" Trying to please him, Jia Shao walked up to stand in front of him and asked. "Do you feel tired? Do you need to take a rest first? Do you feel hungry? Why not take your meal first?"
"No." He made a few movements with his shoulders to loosen up then took up a stance and gestured at her. "Come!"
"Okay!"
Jia Shao took two steps back and her foot positions changed. Her eyes stared at the tall figure in front of her. The two people had almost the same stance, the same gaze, and the same oppressive momentum.
In the eyes of the two people, not a single trace of playfulness could be found. They stared at each other's footsteps and observed each other seriously to search for any weaknesses.
Her toes pointed slightly and her long legs kicked up in a flash.
At that moment when her leg kicked out, Zhen Lang shifted his body away and used his arms to block.
Jia Shao's attack was quick and her leg withdrew even faster. Not waiting for her leg to completely withdraw, she had immediately changed her direction. Aiming lower and using the strength of her waist, she threw out another powerful kick to attack.
"Beautiful!" Zhen Lang sidestepped to avoid the kick and in a blink of an eye, he had retreated two steps. As a result, the beautiful kick hung in mid-air. He raised his chin at her and said. "Continue!"
Jia Shao revealed an expression of excitement and her movements became faster. Shouts spilled out of her mouth and her eyes were filled with happiness and an eagerness to advance on him.
She likes this kind of feeling......the feeling of being able to release as much of herself as she can. When her opponent is stronger, the blood in her body starts to boil.
She wanted to capture......capture that figure by using her speed to chase after that dodging figure. To test their strength and to test their skills they released all factors in their bodies and rushed towards each other.
The moves of the two figures were fast and the large space gave them a platform to show off and execute their individual skills.
Jia Shao's kick changed direction and they were aimed at her opponent. Her move was so fast that there was no time for the other party to react and the angle of her kick was unpredictable.
Zhen Lang was always retreating and dodging. He did not allow her to get near his body and nor was he in attack mode but his footsteps were also not lax.
After a series of attacks, a thin layer of sweat formed on her forehead. She stopped her moves and glared at the person in front of her. "You are looking down on me."
"No." Zhen Lang undid the button below his collar. "You should know your own strength. No one dares to look down on you."
"Then why are you not attacking?" Jia Shao sounded very dissatisfied. "You have been retreating. In a competition venue, the space will not be as big as this for you to keep retreating."
The second button was undone and his strong chest was revealed. "Okay, this time I will not be retreating. Come!"
Jia Shao stepped forward and threw a kick. Zhen Lang twisted his body to the side quickly and retreated two steps back. In a flash, he stood behind her and extended both his hands to hug her slender waist.
"Ah!" She exclaimed and turned around to face him. "Hey, you've made a foul move!"
"Did I?" Zhen Lang exerted a little more strength and someone's tall frame was lifted off the floor effortlessly by him.
She forgot to struggle free and only thought of arguing with him. "Of course! You can't hold your opponent's waist in a competition."
Quickly, a kiss landed on her lips. "I only agreed to try out the mat with you but I didn't say anything about fighting with you."
"If we don't fight, how are we to know how much pain we can endure and whether it hurts?" Jia Shao retaliated by giving him a bite and he deftly avoided her.
The little wildcat struggled for a while under his strong hold and her hands and waist were tightly bound by his hands. "You agreed to try out the mat with me. You're not allowed to back out."
Before she could finish speaking, suddenly her body flew out in the path of an arc and landed softly on the mat. Zhen Lang's ability to evaluate his strength was excellent and she landed without feeling the slightest pain. Flipping her waist, she made a move to jump up.
The tall figure pounced and pinned down the person who was attempting to get back on her feet, back on the mat. The strong man's smell mixed with a hint of sweat enveloped her body and this unique smell belongs to Zhen Lang.
"If you want to try out the mat, it's very simple." His finger hooked onto the button of Jia Shao's shirt and leisurely played with it. "I guarantee you will feel satisfied."
"You......" Her voice was interrupted by the popping sounds of buttons from her shirt. A few sparkling translucent buttons flew off at the same time and landed in several places on the floor. Zhen Lang's lips quickly blocked off all the dissatisfaction she was about to voice. His hands caressed her waist and moved upwards inch by inch.
"I......" Jia Shao's brains had stopped functioning and only panting sounds could be heard.
His kisses ignited flames on the places where his lips had touched, heating up her blood as it flowed through her blood vessels. While lying down on the mat, she twisted her body and her voice became unsteady. "A lot of sweat......I want.......a bath........"
Biting her earlobe, Zhen Lang teased her making her feel even more restless as his fingers roamed over her skin as if he was playing with his beloved treasure. "If you bath now, later you will still sweat. Wait a little longer, we can bath together."
"That......." She was pinned down tightly on the mat and was unable to find anything to give her support to push up her body. "I'm very hungry. I want to eat. It's time to cook."
The tip of his tongue was teasing her neck and his voice was full of enticement.
"Food always tastes better after an enjoyable exercise. Later I will take you out for dinner but first, you have to feed me until I'm satisfied."
Obviously, the wildcat had fallen into the mouth of the tiger and there was no hope of resistance.
"That......" She twisted her body slightly when she felt a gentle cold breeze blow over her body. "The windows are opened......the......the curtains are not drawn."
Zhen Lang lifted his head and very quickly, his head lowered down again. "It doesn't matter if they are not drawn. Anyway, this was not the first time. Remember our first night? The curtains were also not drawn and the windows were full panel glass from ceiling to floor......."
Does he need to mention that?
Although it was the most beautiful night for her, it was also the most shameful night for her. That night, he had actually pinned her against the large glass windows of the presidential suite of the city's tallest hotel and with the curtains opened. Then like that they.........
She remembered the stars were twinkling outside the windows and just below her feet, the distant car headlights were flowing like a galaxy of stars. Next to her ear was his panting, his professions of love and also his total entry and possession.
Without any reason, her face suddenly turned red and hot and her hands weakly pushed him. "Lecherous wolf, you lied to me again. We have not declared who is the winner yet."
The moment she shot out her hands, they were pinned down and she did not know when Zhen Lang had relieved her of all her restraints. "Winner or loser, we can still declare in other areas."
With his hands around her waist, he used a little strength to flip Jia Shao around and placed her to sit on top of him. His voice was extremely casual. "Since wife is so enthusiastic, then husband has no choice but to comply."
She was unable to speak anymore because her body's responses left her with only the energy to gasp for breath. Everything was already controlled by him and she was like a small boat that was riding in unison with the undulating waves. All that was left for her was just to feel the passions he brought.
When the sweat on her body rolled down, she fell weakly on his chest and panted heavily.
She was rained with sweet light kisses on her forehead, her hair and her lips. Zhen Lang's burning hot hands slid over her skin. "I admit I've lost. Don't you feel proud?"
Proud?
She looked at him and saw his face full of pride and had the look of being 'well-fed' while her hands and feet felt sore and weak.
Does this seem right for her to say she feels proud?
"Since I have won, is it right that you should listen to me?" Now she does not want to eat, does not want to take a bath and she does not want to draw the curtains to bring shame upon herself. All she wants to do is just sleep.
"But my love......." His hands that were caressing her body suddenly increased in strength. "You have won but don't you think I should be given a chance to challenge you and fight back?"
Challenge and fight back? What does he mean?
Jia Shao widened her eyes and her body was unable to move anymore.
Sensing change to a certain part of his body made her understand his meaning. She wanted to shake her head but was pressed down by his body. "You can either choose to defeat me or allow me to defeat you........" 𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖
This......is there any difference?
She looked weakly at him and her eyes were full of complaints.
"And......." He launched a new round of offense. "That is.......if I fail, I will challenge you again."
She swears she will never let this bastard try out the mat with her again.
Before this, he had already made her try out the bed, the bathtub and the sofa with him.
"My dear........" Zhen Lang's voice sounded in her ear. "The house is not yet completely renovated. You must remember to inform me when you buy the new table and you have not bought the stove yet. I like them to be big and sturdy. You should understand what I mean."
She gave a light humph and muttered softly.
Whether it was a protest or consent, no one really knew.
