Another Chance To Love - Chapter 90

Shen Ji composed herself even when her heart was filled with rage when she saw Chunlan sitting on Jihai’s ŀȧp. She couldn’t even fake a smile when she saw her act like a hostess when she was the one who should the one with Jihai! “Okay, then.”

Chunlan let go of Jihai’s collar and readjusted herself on his ŀȧp, facing Shen Ji’s direction as she said. “Now, you can tell my fiancee what you told me this morning about your missing hairbrush.”

Shen Ji already had an ominous feeling about this when she saw Jihai glaring at her. “I thought you said the room was already cleaned so there is no need to mention-”

“How dare you enter this house after what you did, Shen Ji? What did I tell you that night?” Jihai’s piercing gaze betrayed his anger at the memory that she almost successfully seduced him. If it was not for his cousin, he would have made a grievous mistake that night.

Shen Ji became flustered as she tried to plead with him. She now realized that she semmed to have made the wrong move confronting that woman without settling things with Jihai first. “But I just-”

“My fiancee and I have decided that we are no longer in need of your services. I will tell my cousin to drop you back in Dubai tomorrow.” Jihai no longer spared her a glance but instead returned his attention to his fiancee, his skin becoming flushed when he realized that Chunlan’s breath was tickling his collar bone. He shifted uncomfortably.

Shen Ji trembled when she remembered his crazy cousin who had tried to **** her when he caught her that night. She wasn’t sure what she feared most at this moment, going back to Dubai to those thugs who were after her or being in the company of that lunatic. She knelt down without a single thought as she begged him. “Jihai, please don’t do this. I am sorry, I was in the wrong…I will do whatever you say!”

He lowered his gaze to the woman in his arms who had been staying quiet all this while, his intuition telling him that this was the perfect time to help her vent her anger. “This is not my decision alone. The reason I saved you back then was to save my fiancee and now she doesn’t want your help. Tell me, what use do you have for me?”

She struggled to form a coherent thought but soon she knew what he wanted. She clenched her fists as her eyes settled on Chunlan who was presumably sleeping. “Miss Tang, I admit my wrong about the incident with Jihai. I wasn’t aware that he was engaged already and the truth is I really like him. Please don’t send me back to Dubai.”

She received no response and she had never been treated like this since she became the legendary physician, Shen Ji. She closed her eyes and endured the humiliation for future revenge. When she was about to repeat her request, Chunlan finally responded. “We won’t send you back to Dubai but we really won’t use your services because frankly, I don’t trust you. I won’t endanger myself by entrusting my eyes and possibly my life to you when you are infatuated with my fiancee.”

Shen Ji looked at Jihai and it seemed like he was also in agreement with her statement which didn’t help her relationship with Jihai, after all if he no longer needed her to save his fiance, how was she supposed to spend time with him? “I am not that kind of person to behave like that. Jihai, you have to believe me. I promise to cure her blindness at all cost.”

Jihai felt Chunlan chuckling quietly against his neck, sending tickling sensations down his body. He lifted his arm to support her as he struggled to focus on what Shen Ji was saying at this point when all he wanted to do was to get his fiance to bed. “I have told you before that the decision is not mine to make, you should communicate directly with my fiancee instead.”

Chunlan yawned and shifted uncontrollably to find the perfect spot to stay in his arms, blushing a little when she heard his low mȯȧn. She whispered to him. “Jihai, stop that.”

Shen Ji lifted her head to look at Chunlan with a clueless expression. “Hmm?”

Chunlan replied. “Nothing. I said we will think about this and inform you of our decision later. But I will give you a warning, Miss Shen. Stay away from Jihai, if you make another move on him again I will become your worst nightmare because I hate thieves and people who try to steal what is mine will not be spared, are we clear?”

Shen Ji almost went mad from rage but whenever she sensed Jihai’s knife-like glare on her, she forced herself to be submissive. “Yes, Miss Tang. We are clear.”

Chunlan heard the alarm she set in her phone ring so she said. “Well, it’s getting late now so we will be sending you home now. Good night, Miss Shen.”

Chunlan called for a maid. “Liling, please see Miss Shen out.”

A young maid that was waiting on Chunlan’s side quickly stepped forward and directed Shen Ji out of the house, leaving the couple alone. Jihai lowered his head to look at Chunlan, his hand stroking her waist leisurely. “Are you now satisfied?”

“Yes, I am. I also wanted to talk about what happened this morning.” She raised her head, her hair brushing his lips as she straightened herself.

Jihai stared at her with a blank expression. “Are you sure?”

She realized that she wasn’t ready to tell him about her reincarnation neither was she sure about how to even start the topic. She was afraid that he would think she was crazy and worst, he would find about her atrocities in her past life. She was sure he wouldn’t forgive her if he found out that she aborted his babies and that thought seemed intolerable to her. “I do have my secrets, Jihai. Things I cannot tell you but I promise I won’t let it separate us anymore because I will do my best to make up for my mistakes.”

She opened her mouth to say something when her lips were suddenly covered by Jihai’s own. He kept kissing her and soon she started to close her eyes when he backed off a little to whisper in her ears. “I agree, we shouldn’t talk about things like this now. Let’s do other fun activities, shall we?”

Her cheeks turned red.
