Be a Good Boy and Marry Me

“You… How did you get here?”

Upon seeing Mo Shiting, Gu Li’s tone lifted slightly, a hint of surprise passing through her eyes.

But she quickly regained her composure, masking the hint of a smile that had escaped her lips.

Just as Mo Shiting was about to speak, he noticed someone approaching and quickly grabbed her hand, pushing open a nearby fire door to hide.

The emergency exit’s sensor light switched on abruptly as he pinned her against the wall, his tall figure pressing against hers.

Suddenly, the lights dimmed again, and in the darkness, the sound of her racing heartbeat was particularly poignant.

“Let go of me! I have to get back on stage.”

Gu Li fought to free herself as she spoke.

Mo Shiting, however, remained stubbornly still, holding her chin and interrogating her, “Isn’t there something you want to declare, hmm?”

“Clarify what?”

Gu Li blinked innocently, feigning confusion, “In what way did I upset you this time, eh?”

“You don’t know?”

Mo Shiting scoffed coldly, his shoes tapping lightly against the ground.

The hallway lights detected movement and lit up again.

Gu Li said, “I really don’t know. I don’t have time to argue, I have to go on stage. Can we talk about this later, please?”

As she finished speaking, she shoved him harder.

The expression upon Mo Shiting’s face was even more severe. He commanded, “Look at me!”

“Huh?”

As Gu Li lifted her eyes, she finally noticed the mask he was wearing.

“Are you sick?”

She casually asked.

Immediately following that, she internally chastised herself — why would she care about him when they were on the verge of divorce? Was she shameless?

However, the fact that he had bailed her out of jail the previous night made her feel a tiny bit grateful.

Speaking of the previous night…

It was only then that Gu Li remembered she had bitten him twice. Could it be that…

A lightbulb went off in her mind — was he wearing the mask because the bite marks hadn’t faded? Was he here to settle that score?

What impeccable timing he had — she really didn’t have time now…

Gu Li took a moment to gather her thoughts, calculating a way to escape.

However, before she could figure something out, Mo Shiting had already removed his mask, revealing his flawless features — and the clear indentations of her teeth.

How on earth did she manage to bite him so fiercely the previous night?

A flicker of regret briefly shone in the girl’s eyes.

Mo Shiting held her face, a dangerous glint in his eyes, “After disfiguring my face like this, you have nothing to say, hmm?”

With a steely resolve, Gu Li said, “Then let me bite you back.”

After speaking, she closed her eyes.

Her trembling eyelashes betrayed her nervousness, Mo Shiting snorted, “In your dreams!”

“I really don’t have time to waste with you.”

“You think I don’t?”

“You—”

Frustrated, Gu Li choked on her words, “What do you want in order for you to let me go?”

Mo Shiting raised an eyebrow, “You made these marks on my face, and you have to be the one to erase them.”

“Easy, I’ll apply ointment on it once the performance is over.”

“Apply it now.”

“Now?”

Gu Li was left speechless.

At last, she realized, this man was clearly just trying to tease her on purpose.

Well, she wasn’t one to be stumped by such small provocations!

And with that thought, the gears in her mind started to turn rapidly. Her eyes landed on the bite marks on his face and she, on her tiptoes, gave them a quick peck.

Her lips barely brushed against the marks before she pulled back, irritably asking, “Is that okay?”

Mo Shiting’s Adam’s apple bobbed, his deep voice turned husky, “That’s not enough.”

“Not enough? You are being completely unreasonable—”

Just as Gu Li began to protest, her words were swallowed by his firm lips against hers.

Mo Shiting passionately kissed her lips before slightly pulling away, finally giving her a little room to breathe..
