Mr.CEO Looks Exactly the Same as My Son!-Chapter 876: Is It Sweet? Let Me Have a Taste

Just thinking, when Beichen Rui walked out of the bedroom, I already knew what he was up to without guessing.

When he came back, he was holding a porcelain bowl.

Perhaps because of drinking traditional Chinese medicine for a period of time, she is now particularly sensitive to its smell. Even before Beichen Rui reached her, she already smelled the pungent medicine.

She grabbed a throw pillow and hugged it to her chest, looking at Beichen Rui with full alertness.

"Can I not drink it?"

As he approached the sofa, Ye Xinluo spoke first, staring straight at him, with something subtly throbbing in her eyes, looking quite pitiful.

"No." Beichen Rui replied firmly. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

Even though seeing that look of hers always makes him want to relent, this was for her own good, no amount of pleading would work.

Seeing that it didn’t work, Ye Xinluo deflated like a punctured ball, immediately drooped her head, retracted her legs onto the sofa, pouted, and refused to reach out to take it.

Beichen Rui wasn’t in a hurry, quietly waiting.

After nearly a minute of standoff, Ye Xinluo finally turned her head, glaring at him with dissatisfaction.

Can’t he just turn a blind eye? Just this once, can’t she skip it?

Beichen Rui had a faint smile on his face, holding the porcelain bowl without feeling tired.

His face was clearly saying, "No, there’s no room for negotiation."

She sighed lightly, reluctantly reached out, and took the bowl.

Looking at the dark medicinal liquid inside, she felt nauseous, really wanting to just pour it down the toilet.

Of course, that’s just a thought...

She glanced at the porcelain bowl, then at him, and finally gritted her teeth, steeled her heart, pinched her nose with one hand, and downed the medicine in large gulps.

The bitterness of Chinese medicine spread throughout her mouth, and Ye Xinluo’s small face crumpled into a ball.

Beichen Rui reached out in front of her, with a few preserved plums lying quietly in his palm.

She grabbed two and put them in her mouth, the sweetness of the preserves quickly dulled the bitterness of the medicine.

"Is it sweet?"

"Hmm... sweet." She bit down gently, the sweetness intensified, and she smiled with her eyes curved.

"Let me try."

Before she could react to what he meant, Beichen Rui reached out, cupped the back of her head, bent down, and pressed his lips to hers.

The cool sensation on her lips made Ye Xinluo pause for a moment.

"Ouch..." She let out a low, painful squeak, glaring at the man in front of her.

Is he a dog? Why does he like to bite people so much?

Being stared at like that, Beichen Rui only slightly curled his lips, reached out, picked her up, then sat on the sofa himself, forcing Ye Xinluo to sit on his lap, struggling was futile.

Just when Ye Xinluo was about to run out of breath, Beichen Rui released her, curling his lips as if still wanting more, "Hmm, it is quite sweet."

Sweet, my foot!!

If she hadn’t been kissed into a daze, she really would’ve wanted to hit him, especially since Beichen Rui looked like such a rogue, it made her teeth itch with anger just seeing it.

Afternoon is always a sleepy time, and coupled with being exhausted from last night’s ordeal, she simply nestled in his arms, unmoving.

After a while, she fell asleep unexpectedly.

She only woke up when Lan Shan called her.

Glancing at the time, it was almost four o’clock. She lifted the blanket, got out of bed, went to the bathroom to freshen up, changed into loungewear, and then left the room.

She stood at the entrance of the old house for about two minutes, and then Lan Shan’s car drove up.
