Chapter 363: Mission seduction (1)

Serena pursed her lips. But she didn’t feel that hurt as she used to before. She smiled and picked her chopsticks. As she took one bite, she asked, “What about you? Aren’t you hungry?”

Jianyu ignored her.

She frowned. It was going to be a long night.

“Did you eat anything?” she asked again.

“Just shut up and eat your food. Don’t pretend to care about me.” Jianyu spat out, getting irritated.

Serena paused. She kept her bowl at the side and slowly got up, holding her tummy.

Jianyu narrowed his eyes. “Where are you going?”

He asked, even though he could see that she was going towards the kitchen.

Once there, Serena searched every cupboard for any more ramen, but there was no food or veggies left. There were only some juices and energy drinks.

“You! Get out of here!” Jianyu grabbed her arm.

Serena silently stared at him. “That must be the last packet of ramen you cooked for me. There is nothing else here. What are you going to eat?”

“None of your damn business!”

“It is my business.”

Jianyu sneered. “Heh! How? Don’t dare-“

“I love you.” Serena suddenly confessed, looking straight into his eyes.

Startled, Jianyu widened his eyes. He blinked his eyes continuously. His mouth opened in a small ‘O’ that didn’t know what to say. He was stumped.

“I love you, so I cannot see you hungry.”

Serena took another pair of chopsticks and dragged him out in his dazed state.

A strange light flickered in his eyes as he kept on watching her from the back.

Serena took the bowl and kept in between them on the table. “We will share.”

Jianyu shook his hand off. He was still unable to utter anything after she confessed out of the blue.

He chose to keep quiet. “Share food with you? I would rather die.”

Serena said, “Alright. If you don’t eat, then I won’t either.”

Jianyu gritted his teeth. “Stop with your nonsense!”

Serena shrugged. He saw that she really wasn’t eating the food.

“Enough, Serena!”

“I will only eat if you eat too.”

Jianyu was restless. It bothered him that she wasn’t eating not only because of their child, but he refused to accept that her discomfort was affecting him too…just a bit.

“If you are hungry, then my child will suffer too. How dare you refuse to eat!?”

Serena didn’t respond. Emotional blackmail or threat wasn’t going to work on her.

“If you eat, then the baby won’t suffer.”

Uggh!!!

Frustrated, Jianyu took the chopsticks and ate one bite. Satisfied, Serena smiled and started to eat as well.

It didn’t take much longer to finish one bowl of ramen by two people.

Serena said, “You cooked our meal. I will wash it.”

When she returned, there was silence again.

Serena wondered if he remembered her birthday. But even if he did, why would he wish her?

Serena’s mood dampened a little. It was supposed to be her first birthday with him, and if everything had been fine, then she would be happily celebrating it with him right now.

Maybe…Jianyu would have given a surprise to me? What would have it been?

Jianyu was also thinking about the ring with which he would have proposed her today.

She would have looked so beautiful, wearing it on her finger.

His gaze darkened, remembering how Serena used him and how the situation was now because she betrayed him.

No love. Nothing. He was just living his life all alone. It only revolved around work and nothing else.

Serena peeked at him and saw that he was sitting on the other couch with his eyes closed.

She slowly asked, “During the meeting, why were you pissed off?”

Jianyu’s eyebrow twitched.

How could he say that Hu Zhu was checking her out, so he felt irritated about it?

He didn’t respond.

Serena’s mouth curved into a naughty smile. “Were you…jealous?”

His eyes flew open, and he glared at her. “Serena! You are overestimating yourself! Do you think I still love you to care about some petty jealousy? Hah! So arrogant.”

Jianyu said, “I hate you from the bottom of my heart. Nothing related to you affects me anymore, so stop daydreaming about us getting back together ever!”

Silence.

He ignored her and went back to rest.

Serena raised her brows.

I don’t affect you anymore? Let’s see…

She waited for a while so that he becomes unguarded.

Finally, she could hear the sound of his deep breathing and noticed that he fell asleep.

It is my birthday today, and I got such a golden chance to spend it with you. Like hell, I am going to waste it!

She had wrapped a scarf around her neck since it was a bit chilly today.

Serena got up and slowly tiptoed to his side. She observed that Jianyu was really sleeping soundly.

An evil smile laced her lips.

Jianyu furrowed his brows in his sleep as he felt a bit stiff. He felt a weight pressing down on his abdomen and feeling uncomfortable, he opened his eyes.

The sight that greeted him froze him like a block of ice.

Jianyu was shell-shocked to see Serena on top of him with a devilish smirk on her face.

He felt short of words. What was this position!

“Serena!” He roared. “What the hell do you think you are doing?”

Jianyu wanted to push her away, but he felt his right hand was restricted to move. He saw that his wrist was tied to the couch handle with a scarf.

He was dumbfounded.

What the fuck!

With his eyes, turning red shot due to extreme anger, his jaw tightened.

“Untie me, Serena.”

“Nope.” She calmly rejected.

Jianyu harshly shook his hand, but the knot was tight as hell. His wrist remained stuck to the couch.

He got so furious that he was breathing raggedly in frustration. He clenched his fingers into a tight fist.

“I am warning you, Serena. Don’t test my patience. I don’t know what the fuck you are doing but-“

But he was abruptly cut off as Serena lowered her head and blocked his thin lips with hers.
