The blind boss's nanny

Chapter 55 Now you know fear?

The touch of that skin still lingered on his fingertips. Its smooth, jade-like texture left him slightly breathless.

Lu Tingzhao instinctively stepped back, but was caught off guard and tripped over the edge of the bed.

Seeing that he was about to fall, Lin Xiaoman quickly reached out to help him.

The man instinctively raised his arm to block—

"what!"

She gasped and grabbed his sleeve, and the two of them tumbled onto the soft bed.

This time, she was the one pressing down on him.

Lin Xiaoman's bath towel slipped off in the chaos, and the man's untied bathrobe also came undone, their hot skin pressed together without any obstruction.

"Hmm..."

She crashed into his hard chest without any warning, tears welling up in her eyes from the pain.

But she was completely unaware that the man beneath her had turned red from his ears to his neck, and his face was gradually turning ashen with embarrassment and anger.

Lu Tingzhao's breathing tightened.

His palms instinctively gripped her smooth back, the girl's uniquely supple curves making his whole body stiffen.

His breathing became even more erratic, and he immediately let go of her hand.

"Lin Xiaoman, get up."

The man's voice was hoarse.

Lin Xiaoman frantically tried to sit up, but her palm landed squarely on his bare abs.

The man groaned, his robe completely unfurled, revealing his slender waistline under the light.

"Chairman! I'm so sorry!"

She panicked and became incoherent, the towel hanging precariously from her arm, each movement causing her delicate skin to brush against his body.

Yuanbao jumped onto the bed and tried to cover Lin Xiaoman by biting the corner of the bath towel, but instead pulled her back into Lu Tingzhao's arms.

"Lin Xiaoman!"

Lu Tingzhao practically spat out those three words through clenched teeth, completely unsure of where to put his hands and feet.

"Chairman, is there something you need?"

Aunt Mei's voice came through the walkie-talkie.

In the chaos just now, I don't know who pressed the walkie-talkie.

The two froze simultaneously.

Lin Xiaoman hurriedly pulled the blanket over herself, while Lu Tingzhao quickly put on his bathrobe.

Yuanbao wagged its tail innocently, but the messy creases on the bed told a story of the absurdity that had just happened.

Lin Xiaoman finally came to her senses and quickly said to Aunt Mei:

"Aunt Mei, it's alright, I just pressed the wrong button."

Even if she were slow to notice, she would realize at this moment that the body beneath her was unusually tense.

She deftly helped Lu Tingzhao up, her fingers flying across the floor as she quickly tied the belt on his robe, so fast that he had no time to react or stop her.

"I'm so sorry, Chairman! I promise... this will never happen again..."

Her hand roamed over the man's chest, her tone concerned:

"I didn't step on you, did I?"

The chest beneath his palm was as hard as iron, and even in a relaxed state, it still possessed astonishing strength.

Lin Xiaoman glanced down unintentionally and suddenly caught sight of a silhouette under her bathrobe... quite striking.

It's impossible to ignore.

The words of reassurance came to an abrupt end.

"what!"

She was startled and pulled her hand back, but Lu Tingzhao grabbed her wrist in one swift motion.

"Touch it,"

The man's face was expressionless, but his voice was dangerously hoarse.

"Why did you stop?"

Yuanbao tilted its head in confusion, watching its owner slowly press the trembling hand back into place.

Their breaths mingled and intertwined in the air.

Lin Xiaoman's fingertips trembled slightly in Lu Tingzhao's palm. She tried to pull her hand away, but was pressed down even harder.

"Now you know fear?"

Lu Tingzhao turned his face slightly to the side, his breath brushing against her flushed earlobes.

"Why weren't you afraid when you fabricated your identity? Why weren't you afraid when you pretended to be a middle-aged woman?"

He guided her fingers, gently stroking her taut abdominal muscles beneath his robe, each line brimming with power ready to be unleashed.

Lin Xiaoman stared at Lu Tingzhao in shock. She suddenly realized what was going on and understood why the man was angry.

No wonder I wouldn't let her touch it when we came down the mountain, and she still has a sour face on her face.

No wonder he, who never gossips, suddenly asked about her past.

Normally, she would have explained it to him with a clear conscience.

But now, he's holding her hand...

Somewhere...

Lin Xiaoman was so embarrassed that even her toes curled up. She, who was usually fearless, wanted to back down at this moment.

Fortunately, Lu Tingzhao couldn't see it, otherwise he would definitely know that her face was flushed pink from her earlobes to her toes.

"I...I can explain..."

"Explain what?"

Lu Tingzhao said coldly:

"Explain how you managed to fool me so completely!"

"No! That's not how it is, Chairman. I..."

Lu Tingzhao finally released his grip on her, and Lin Xiaoman collapsed onto the carpet, her legs going weak.

My heart pounded in my ears like a drum, and before I could catch my breath, I heard a deep command from above:

"come over."

Lin Xiaoman almost instinctively crawled closer on her knees, looking up at the figure shrouded in shadow.

She seemed to have become accustomed to obeying Lu Tingzhao's orders.

Even if his actions just now could be considered rude and disrespectful.

The moonlight outlined the contours of his muscular chest beneath his loose-fitting bathrobe.

Lu Tingzhao reached out and waved his hand in the air a few times before his slightly cool fingers finally touched the top of her head.

He said expressionlessly:

"Raise your head."

Lin Xiaoman did as instructed.

His palm slid slowly down her cheek.

The man's fingertips brushed across Lin Xiaoman's trembling eyelashes, across her pert nose, and finally rested on her slightly parted lips.

"really......"

His thumb gently caressed her soft lips, feeling the uncontrollable trembling of the person beneath him.

This touch completely shattered all pretense... There were no lines left by the years, only the unique fullness and elasticity of youth.

The skin beneath her fingertips was as delicate as a newly blossoming flower petal.

"fraud."

He leaned closer, his warm breath mingling with his.

The next second, Lu Tingzhao grabbed her chin:

"Tell me, what else did you lie to me about?"

Lin Xiaoman shook her head desperately, but she couldn't shake off the man's hand.

"Have you forgotten the rules?"

He used his fingertips to increase the pressure.

"Answer aloud."

"Chairman, there really aren't any left..."

Her voice trembled.

Only then did she realize the dangerous side of the man in front of her.

It turns out he wasn't as polite as he had previously thought.

He spoke each word clearly, his voice cool and detached:

"Is your degree also fake?"

It's true!

Lin Xiaoman suddenly regained some confidence.

"I earned every single one of these certificates myself: CET-4 (College English Test Band 4), nutritionist certificate, psychological counselor certificate!"

The man's dark eyes, like unyielding ink, held a fleeting, enigmatic glint.

"Why is someone so young working as a nanny?"

Lin Xiaoman closed her eyes and went all out:

"I want to save money to go abroad to work."

At this point, Lu Tingzhao already had the answer in his heart.

The background check results matched Qin Xiu's findings—this girl named Lin Xiaoman had been working in various high-intensity service industries since entering the workforce.

She approached him solely to make a living, and it had nothing to do with any business conspiracy.

Why did you lie to me in the first place?

Lin Xiaoman took a deep breath.

"Many employers don't quite believe in my abilities because of my appearance..."

After a moment of contemplation, the man finally gave his conclusion.

"You can leave now."

Lin Xiaoman stared at the man's cold profile, a strong sense of resentment welling up in her heart.
