Chapter 2336: Chapter 2340: Let’s See If You Dare to Trick Me Again

"I’m free anytime, if not then..."

Xu Xia had just been about to say Tomorrow when Leng Zirui had already reached over and snatched her phone away.

"Hello, this is Leng Zirui."

"General Leng, hello." Hearing his voice, Lan Zi hurriedly greeted him politely.

"Let Xu Xia start work the day after Tomorrow, there’s something going on at my place Tomorrow."

"Okay, can’t be helped. If there’s anything else, she can rest a few more days too, I was just asking." Lan Zi kept up the polite tone, completely different from the loud voice she used with Xu Xia; her voice was as gentle as could be.

"Then I’ll have to trouble you all."

Leng Zirui hung up and casually tossed the phone back into Xu Xia’s hands.

"What was that about?" Xu Xia caught the phone and leaned over curiously to ask.

"Something big."

"Something big?" Xu Xia was even more confused. "What did Uncle Leng say to you, or was it from Zimo’s side..."

"Keep me company."

"Keep you company?" Xu Xia glared at him in exasperation. "That counts as something big?"

The car stopped at a red light. Leng Zirui turned his head and looked at her with a straight face. "You don’t think that’s something big?"

"Uh..." Seeing the faintly disappointed look on his face, Xu Xia froze. "I... I didn’t mean it like that, I meant this doesn’t even count as a thing—no, that’s not..."

Leng Zirui frowned, looking all wronged. "You don’t want to keep me company?"

Just now, she’d only blurted it out without thinking.

Of course she also wanted to spend some proper time with him; he’d been working so hard lately.

Taking it as him being upset, Xu Xia quickly held onto the right arm he had resting on the gearshift. "Zirui, don’t get me wrong, I didn’t mean it like that. It’s just that I’ve already delayed work a lot these past few days, so I wanted to start as soon as possible to make up for the time I lost before. Of course I want to be with you..."

"You really want to, you’re not forcing yourself?" Leng Zirui raised his brows slightly as he asked.

"How could I be forcing it, definitely not." Xu Xia raised a hand as if swearing an oath. "As long as General is happy, your humble servant will go through fire and water without complaint."

"No need to risk life and limb, just the three kinds of companionship is fine." Leng Zirui lifted the corners of his mouth in satisfaction. "I mean bed company, bed company, bed company!"

Seeing the grin on his face grow wider and wider, Xu Xia knew she’d been played again. She was so mad she clenched her teeth. Her hand happened to be gripping his arm; she suddenly bent over, grabbed his arm, and took a big bite.

"Bastard Leng Zirui, how dare you trick me, I’ll bite you to death!"

His arm hurt a bit, but Leng Zirui didn’t pull it out of her mouth, afraid he’d accidentally hurt her. Instead, he deliberately let out strange exaggerated cries.

"Ah... wife... you’re too forceful... ah... so exciting..."

This bastard—was that the reaction someone being bitten was supposed to have?

Xu Xia had always been one for loud thunder but little rain. Hearing his reaction, she only got more furious, and immediately increased her strength, really biting down.

His arm hurt, but Leng Zirui’s arm still didn’t move at all. It wasn’t until the red light was about to turn green that he spoke softly.

"Once you’re done biting, let go, it’s green. I need to drive."

"Hmph!" Xu Xia straightened up. "Let’s see you dare trick me again."

"I’m sorry, wife." Leng Zirui shot her an apologetic look. "I didn’t mean to trick you, it’s just that sometimes, I really can’t help it."

Looking at his perfectly serious expression, Xu Xia was stunned. "Zirui?"

Leng Zirui stretched over the arm she’d bitten, the one now with a neat little bite mark, and wiped away a bit of saliva at the corner of her lips. "From now on, I’ll try my best to take fewer dangerous missions."
