I Break Tycoon's Immune Barrier-Chapter 217 - : Control
Chapter 217: Chapter 217: Control
Su Zixi couldn’t help but let out a soft chuckle.
She really moved closer, sniffed at his collar… Although she didn’t want to admit it, she had always been fascinated by this man’s scent, a faint smell of sweat mixed with a strong whiff of hormones, which made her cheeks instantly turn red.
He Jingyao’s gaze deepened as he stroked her cheek, “What are you thinking about?”
“Nothing… nothing at all,” she said, guiltily stepping back, “It must have been hard sitting on the plane for so long. Have you not eaten?”
Given his pickiness, he probably would rather starve than eat a bite of airplane food.
“What do you think?” he glanced at her indifferently, “But it seems I interrupted your lunch. I’m truly sorry.”

...
He said sorry, but his expression showed not a bit of apology.
Su Zixi coughed lightly, “He actually invited me to have lunch with him, but of course, I didn’t agree!”
He Jingyao laughed in anger!
“He even dared…”
To dig so blatantly under my wall… He Jingyao seriously considered how to knock his rival down once and for all.
“Ning Yichen noticed that we had a fight. He thinks you’ll dump me soon…” Su Zixi glanced at him sneakily.
“And you?” The man gazed deeply at her, “Have you also begun to let your imagination run wild, giving him the opportunity to take advantage?”
“I didn’t,” Su Zixi denied guiltily and then couldn’t help but mutter, “Even if I did, you can’t blame me… who told you to ignore me.”
“Su Zixi, I went to great lengths to take you as my wife,” the man looked at her emotionlessly, “Do you think I would let you go so easily? Dream on!”
Su Zixi was briefly startled, as a surge of sour and swollen emotions welled up in her heart… Although his tone was very domineering, her heart settled down inexplicably…
Although his purpose might only be her body… at this moment, she didn’t want to dwell on this disheartening issue anymore. After experiencing the panic that he might truly not want her, the issue had become less significant.
“Then… then you are not allowed not to answer my calls,” Su Zixi looked at him pretending to be angry, “Do you know how sad I have been from last night till now…”
As she spoke, her expression grew dim.
In this relationship, she had already surrendered herself completely. If he didn’t want her, she truly had no recourse.
He Jingyao’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he smiled slightly, kissing her cheek gently, “All right, it’s all my fault. I’m sorry, I will definitely answer your calls promptly next time.”
“Mhm…” Su Zixi was very easy to console now; hearing his promise, she immediately turned her worries into joy, leaning obediently into his arms.
He Jingyao rubbed her hair, his gaze somehow inscrutable.
These past few days, he was indeed too busy to comfort her, but he had to admit; he was intentionally neglecting her.
Back then, he felt that only when she was away from him would she realize his importance, so he eventually agreed to let her move out.
Now, the result was obviously better than he had anticipated, but He Jingyao found his mood was not as joyous; on the contrary, he felt not only heartache but also a faint sense of guilt.
He had been in a dominant position from the beginning, watching her fall deeper step by step… Apart from the time she suddenly learned the truth which had made him feel defeated, all her reactions were within his control.
