The Scheming Billionaire's Heartfelt Devotion-Chapter 773 - 788: Sorry, I just.......

Zhong Li took off the apron and casually placed it on the chair, then returned to the bedroom.

Closing the door, Zhong Li raised her hand to rub her temples, dragging her weary body to the bathroom.

After showering, Zhong Li wrapped herself in a towel. Whether it was because she was too tired, her foot slipped, causing her to fall directly on the ground, and she cried out in pain.

Outside, Gu Nanxi had just finished his noodles and was about to leave. Hearing the noise, he ran in without thinking, "Are you hurt?"

"Get out quickly," Zhong Li awkwardly clutched the now disheveled towel.

Gu Nanxi was only worried about whether she was hurt and didn’t heed Zhong Li’s words. He went over and bent down to lift her horizontally, "Do you feel pain anywhere?" 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

"No... I’m fine, please put me down, I can walk myself."

The towel on Zhong Li’s body was short and barely covered her modesty, while freshly washed hair was still dripping water.

Gu Nanxi ignored Zhong Li, carried her straight to the bedside, "Did you hit your head? I should take you to the hospital for a check-up."

"I’m really fine, you should leave."

It was just an accidental fall, nothing serious really, Zhong Li simply wanted to sleep and rest quickly.

Gu Nanxi looked at the freshly bathed Zhong Li in his arms, her fragrance wafting into his nose, and he suddenly wanted to kiss her.

Thinking this, Gu Nanxi indeed acted on it. As their soft lips touched, Zhong Li stared wide-eyed in shock.

"You... mm... "

Seizing the moment Zhong Li opened her mouth, Gu Nanxi’s tongue invaded, and they both fell onto the bed.

Zhong Li, panicking, pushed her hands against Gu Nanxi’s chest, her mind in disarray.

Gu Nanxi boldly claimed his desire, his palm sliding along Zhong Li’s waist, about to explore past the towel’s edge, but Zhong Li grabbed his wrist, forcing herself to bite his tongue.

Gu Nanxi groaned in pain, as the taste of blood spread in his mouth.

Zhong Li forcefully shoved him away, her eyes slightly red as she pulled the blanket over herself, "Get out..."

"I’m sorry, I just..."

Gu Nanxi truly couldn’t control himself; Zhong Li was simply too alluring.

Zhong Li picked up a pillow from the bed and threw it at him, speaking with a clean voice tinged with nasal sound, "I don’t want to see you now, leave."

"I’ll leave right away, don’t be angry, it was my fault." Gu Nanxi stood up from the bed, walked to the door, turned to glance at Zhong Li, and then left.

.......

The next morning, Zhong Li woke up, it was already past nine. Since it was Saturday, she didn’t have to go to work. She lifted the blanket and got out of bed, casually tying up her hair before heading to the bathroom.

After finishing her bathroom routine and changing clothes, Zhong Li sat at the dressing table to put on light makeup, then went out.

As she exited the elevator, she coincidentally bumped into the same plump aunt from yesterday, "Girl, I was just wondering how to contact you, yesterday I forgot to get your phone number."

"Auntie, do you need me for something?"

"My nephew just returned from abroad this morning, such a handsome young man. You two should have lunch together and get acquainted."

Thinking that Zhong Li might become her niece-in-law, the plump woman smiled so broadly her mouth could hardly close.

"She won’t go, tell your nephew to stop daydreaming."

Gu Nanxi entered carrying breakfast from the main entrance, his low voice carrying an unyielding aura.
