Sweet Temptation! The Beauty in President Pei's Palm is Too Alluring

The man felt a sudden chill run down his spine when the man looked at him. The man in front of him was tall and imposing, with a cold and aristocratic air; he was clearly no ordinary person.

He immediately realized he might have bitten off more than he could chew, and quickly apologized with a forced smile, "I'm so sorry, I didn't know you were married. Sorry to bother you!"

"It's okay," Shu Hua said, trying to ease the tension.

The man quickly slipped away.

After everyone had walked away, Shu Hua turned back to look at Pei Yanzhou and said reproachfully, "Why were you so fierce?"

"Shouldn't I be fierce when someone tries to poach your partner right in front of you?" Pei Yanzhou said matter-of-factly.

"They didn't know just now," Shu Hua muttered softly. "Besides, I didn't give it to them."

"You're not allowed to give it to me even when I'm not here." Pei Yanzhou tightened his grip on her shoulder.

Shu Hua suddenly felt like teasing him, so she tilted her head up and deliberately asked, "Then... what would happen if I gave it to you?"

Pei Yanzhou lowered his head slightly, leaned close to her ear, and said, word by word:

"I'll tie you to the bed and keep you there for three days and three nights, so you won't be able to get out of bed again."

"You...dare to give it a try?"

Shu Hua felt a jolt run through her body.

This is indeed something this man would do.

"I...I was just saying." She immediately backed down. "Don't take it seriously."

Seeing her flustered state, Pei Yanzhou's coldness faded, replaced by a triumphant smile.

He reached out and ruffled the top of her head: "That would be best."

The two continued shopping at the supermarket.

Walking into the snack section, Shu Hua, who doesn't usually eat snacks, suddenly felt a bit craving them today.

"Pei Yanzhou," she shook his arm, "I want to eat potato chips."

Pei Yanzhou glanced at the various puffed snacks on the shelf and frowned slightly: "Eating too much of this is unhealthy."

"I don't eat it every day," Shu Hua began to whine. "It's okay to eat it occasionally."

Looking into her bright eyes, Pei Yanzhou finally relented: "You can only take one pack."

"Two packs!" Shu Hua bargained, "different flavors."

Pei Yanzhou couldn't stand her pleading with him in such a soft voice. He was silent for two seconds, but finally raised his hand and took it.

When it was time to pay, the two went to the self-checkout machine. The shelves next to it were filled with all kinds of family planning products, a dazzling array.

Shu Hua glanced at it unintentionally and was stunned.

Wow... there are so many varieties?

She had never seen these things before—after all, Pei Yanzhou had prepared them, and they were usually used in the dark, so she had no chance to look at them carefully.

Seeing such a full shelf of various packaging, styles, and flavors so clearly now makes my cheeks burn.

Pei Yanzhou was scanning the code to pay when he caught a glimpse of her staring at the shelf.

"Which one do you like?" he asked naturally.

Shu Hua snapped back to reality, her face flushing red. She quickly turned away, saying, "N-aren't they all pretty much the same?"

"They're very different," Pei Yanzhou retorted seriously, pointing to several different brands with different labels. "The materials, thickness, functions, and user experience are all different." He turned to look at her. "Do you like the strawberry flavor? The watermelon flavor should be good too."

Shu Hua sensed several gazes drifting over and quickly urged, "Pei Yanzhou, stop picking and choosing! Hurry up and pay the bill!"

Pei Yanzhou actually started to select seriously, and finally took about ten boxes of different styles and flavors and calmly put them into the shopping cart.

Shu Hua looked at the pile of small boxes, her face burning hot: "Why did you buy so many...?"

When will we ever need this?!

"Better safe than sorry." Pei Yanzhou scanned the code to pay, his tone calm. "After all, we're running out of supplies pretty quickly."

Shu Hua: "..."

-

It was almost seven o'clock when I got back to the apartment.

As soon as he entered, Pei Yanzhou carried the ingredients into the kitchen and began to prepare them methodically. Shu Hua went back to her bedroom to take a shower.

When she finished showering and came out in comfortable loungewear, the kitchen was already filled with delicious aromas. Instead of disturbing Pei Yanzhou, she nestled into the sofa, opened a bag of potato chips and the milk tea she'd bought on the way, and chose a movie, ready to enjoy a rare moment of leisure.

As she looked around, her gaze was drawn to a small bag containing family planning supplies next to her.

As if possessed, she quietly reached out and pulled the bag over, taking out a box.

Ultra-thin, ultra-thin, spiral... and there was another one with a strawberry drawn on it and the words "Fruitful and sweet" written on it, which made her cheeks burn.

She wanted to get a sip of milk tea to calm her nerves.

Then I looked up—

She saw Pei Yanzhou standing in front of the sofa, arms crossed, watching her with an air of leisure. His gaze fell on the small box with strawberries painted on it in her hand, then moved to her flushed face.

Eyes facing each other.

The air seemed to freeze.

Shu Hua was so startled that her hand trembled, and she almost dropped the box!

Her face flushed instantly. She felt like a student caught red-handed, embarrassed and utterly ashamed! She wished she could dig a castle out of the ground and bury herself in it!

Pei Yanzhou couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"Don't be shy," he said, walking over and sitting down next to her. He casually took the strawberry-flavored box from her hand, looked at it, and said, "It's going to be used on you anyway. It's good to do some research beforehand."

Shu Hua's face turned even redder: "Who studied it! I just wanted to take a look out of curiosity..."

"Did you figure it out?" Pei Yanzhou asked deliberately.

"Pei Yanzhou!" Shu Hua pushed him, embarrassed and annoyed. "Weren't you cooking? What are you doing out here?"

"The vegetables are simmering in the pot, it'll be a while." Pei Yanzhou reached out and pulled her into his arms, resting his chin on the top of her head. "But you..."

He leaned closer, his gaze locking onto her evasive eyes, his voice lower and more seductive:

"Have you come up with any insights from your research, Mrs. Pei?"

"Which one would you like to try first tonight?"

Shu Hua felt her scalp tingle under his gaze and dared not meet his eyes. She subconsciously closed her eyes, her long, thick, curled eyelashes trembling.

That shy yet adorable appearance softened Pei Yanzhou's heart.

He raised his hand and gently stroked the tip of her nose with the back of his fingers, his tone clearly amused: "Just kidding, why are you so nervous?"

Shu Hua's tense nerves relaxed slightly, and she cautiously opened her eyes.

Her bright almond-shaped eyes were now filled with tears, gazing at him with a wet look, like a startled fawn in the forest. Her red lips were slightly parted, glistening with moisture.

Pei Yanzhou's Adam's apple bobbed.

I wanted to say something else to change the subject, but seeing her like this, the words I was about to say took a different turn.

"I want to kiss you now." His voice was low and husky, his gaze fixed on her lips. "Mrs. Pei, may I?"
