Chapter 41: Want More?
"What… what do you want?" Seeing Lu Tingxiao slip into the passenger seat all of a sudden, Ning Xi gripped the steering wheel tightly, as if he was protecting what belonged to her.
Lu Tingxiao sat back, his eyes darkening.
Heh, what did he want?

Lu Tingxiao was now only wearing a white shirt; his collar was too tight, so he violently ripped the first button open, then the second, then the third…
Ning Xi watched Lu Tingxiao next to her keenly, lost in seeing a handsome man rip his own shirt off to reveal his firm chest, to the point even her beloved Little White was forgotten.
Lu Tingxiao didn't noticed her looking at him. Trying hard to suppress his ridiculous, unreasonable jealousy over a car, he lit a cigarette and took a long, deep drag before releasing a breath of smoke.
The moment that Lu Tingxiao pulled out the cigarette, Ning Xi could no longer stand it. She stared unblinkingly at this man: the slight movement of his Adam’s apple, that white cigarette held loosely between his thin lips, and the smoke coming out of his mouth…
Lu Tingxiao felt the burning stare on him, and when he turned his head, he saw the look of "hunger" on Ning Xi’s face.
For a moment, Lu Tingxiao was almost tricked by that look; then he realized it was not him she was craving for.
She was "hungry" for the cigarette between his lips. action
If nothing else, Lu Jingli was good at gathering information; his background check on Ning Xi had been extremely detailed, from her upbringing to hobbies, even the fact that she was trying to quit smoking…
Lu Tingxiao understood immediately that Ning Xi was having smoke cravings.
It wasn’t just an ex-lover and a car he had lost to, now even a cigarette was more attractive than he was.
Lu Tingxiao had never felt more frustrated or more insecure in his entire life.

She would rather hug someone else’s thigh, than be his wife.
People say that if an ex cannot be forgotten, it means the new lover is not good enough. Does that mean he really wasn’t good enough? She had even gotten ridiculously drunk over someone who had dumped her.
He clearly knew that the best approach was to take it slow, and had always followed this rule. He had never imagined he would lose reason to this extent, that something this insignificant could blow all his senses away.
Lu Tingxiao smoked the cigarette as his thoughts chased themselves all over the place. The red glow of the cigarette tip was reflected in his eyes, and he asked in a deep, low voice, "Want some?"
Ning Xi nodded without hesitation; it wasn’t clear if she was attracted to the cigarette or to the man beside her.
Lu Tingxiao flicked cigarette ash away, and took one more drag on the cigarette under Ning Xi’s naked stare; in the next moment before she knew it, his cigarette-flavored lips were firmly pressed against hers…
Ning Xi’s eyes shot wide open; she was surrounded by the strong scent of tobacco accompanied by the man’s cool breath; a second later, her lips were gently pried open, and smoke breathed into her mouth…
Distracted and unprepared, Ning Xi started coughing severely from the smoke.
The cigarette was now half gone; with a gloomy look on his face, Lu Tingxiao took another drag. With tears in her eyes from coughing, the person next to him was more attractive than ever, and Lu Tingxiao asked, "Want more?"
