Chapter 563: I Have This Sudden Feeling That I’m a Beast

Editor: Atlas Studios

After a long while, Lu Chengzhou put down the cup of water, pulled her up from the chair and into his embrace, and pressed his chin over her head. She let him hug her, enjoying the faint tobacco and shower gel scent on him.

He was behaving rather weirdly today. Usually, they spent their time silently doing their own things and would occasionally exchange a word or two, but he seemed even quieter today. In the morning, he even refused to let her leave the bed and kept kissing and licking her.

And now...

"I’m sorry."

His baritone voice rang in her ear, which made her frown in confusion. "Hm?"

Why the sudden apology?

His arms tightened slightly around her as he placed a kiss on her crown. "I have this sudden feeling that I’m a beast."

A chortle escaped from the back of her lips. "Well, you did do a lot of inhumane things."

Lu Chengzhou said nothing.

Gu Mang circled her arms around his strong but thin waist and asked in a wickedly teasing manner, "So which one are you referring to, Young Master Lu?"

His lips were pursed when he released her a couple of seconds later to peer into her dark, shiny eyes. "Why don’t you beat me up again? You can do it however you like."

There it was. She finally knew the reason for his abnormality. The college’s military training had reminded him of the incident at Red Flame.

Lifting her eyelashes nonchalantly, she asked, "Are you feeling bad for me?"

He kneaded her nape, then pulled her into his arms once more. He wrapped his arms around her really tightly this time. "Yeah."

"I’ll tell you something."

"Go on."

"Before I found out about your identity, I really wanted to kill the person behind Red Flame."

Hearing that, Lu Chengzhou’s fingers twitched a little.

"You’re quite capable. That was the only time I slipped up," Gu Mang told him with a laugh before following up with a question. "Do you feel accomplished?" 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

His voice sounded hoarse as he said, "No."

Not knowing what to say in response, she cocked an eyebrow and kept mum for a moment before she finally broke the silence and said somewhat impatiently, "Stop being so wishy-washy. I meant it when I said let bygones be bygones, understand?"

He did not know what to feel after hearing her tone, but he eventually could not resist breaking into laughter. Humming in agreement, he lowered his head and buried it in the crook of her neck. "Bite me. Hard—sskkk—"
