Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 116

The secretary paused for a while. She seemed to realize what Jean was trying to say. Then, she explained, "Mr. Qi didn't like to sleep outside. He was deliriously drunk. He kept on calling your name until you came. He wanted to see you so ..."

"I got it. Thank you for taking care of him. You can go home now, " Jean said.

"Okay. You're welcome!" The secretary nodded her head as she turned around and left.

Jean slowly walked towards the bed. Zed's warped facial expression indicated that he was not comfortable even though he was lying on the bed with his eyes closed.

She was about to bend over when Zed suddenly sat on his bed and stared at her with his crimson eyes.

She was shocked by his sudden move. After she saw that Zed opened his eyes, Jean heaved a sigh and asked, "Are you up?"

As soon as she finished her words, Zed swooped himself towards Jean and pushed her on the bed. Luke left the room immediately after he saw what happened.

"Hey! Zed!" Jean pushed his chest, but he didn't move at all. He was like a heavy boulder leaning against her. She found it hard to breathe. She didn't know if it was because Zed was heavy, or she was just embarrassed with Zed's action.

Zed seemed to hear Jean call him. He slightly moved his body and lowered his head. His misty crimson eyes showed that he was drunk.

"Jean, Jean ..."

Jean was dazzled for a second when she heard him call her name. Then she realized that he was really calling her name. Jean believed this could possibly mean that she had already gained a place in Zed's heart. She was thrilled and extremely delighted when she thought about it.

"I am here!" She responded while a red hue was slowly showing on her cheeks.

He seemed to be slightly awake at that moment. His cold-looking eyes turned serious and said, "Stay with me. Don't ever leave me."

Something that had been locked in Jean's heart suddenly got released after she heard his words. Jean's eyes were teary. She nodded her head and mumbled, "Yes. I will be with you. I won't leave you."

Zed kissed her. Jean had sniffed the smell of wine on his lips. His tongue opened Jean's lips. It got inside her mouth with a strong taste of wine. He was so gentle and tender.

Jean definitely hated the taste of wine. But now, she closed her eyes and enjoyed the moment. They were passionately kissing. Time seemed to stop at that moment. Her brain started to whirl. She felt as if she had lost her strength and was totally absorbed with his kiss.

She would be very happy if she could stay with the man she loved. Kissing the man she loved was beyond happiness.

Zed seemed to be too much drunk. Their moment didn't last for too long. After a while, he fell aside. Jean lay on the bed and breathed heavily.

It took Jean and Luke a huge strength to lift Zed to the bed after they arrived home.

"Mrs. Jean, I'll go back to my room now if there is nothing else I can help you with."

"Everything seems fine. Thank you, Luke."

After Luke left, Jean got a wet towel and wiped Zed's face. She took off his coat and shoes. It was already 2 o'clock at dawn after she finished wiping his face. Jean was pretty tired that time. She lay down on the bed and watched him lying beside her peacefully.

She didn't know that men could be harder to be taken care of than women. She was so exhausted. The couple of hours she spent on Zed that night had consumed all her energy.

Jean turned her head and looked at him. He had a clear cut face. His features were so delicate. Moreover, his skin was as smooth as a baby's. An aura of elegance radiated from his cold face like a new born king.

It was hard to believe that an outstanding man like Zed would fall in love with Jean. Though Jean heard him call her name when he was drunk, she wasn't sure if he really had feelings for her.

She was puzzled and confused deep in her heart.

She blinked her eyes and looked at Zed. Her mind was slowly floating in the air.

When the ray of sun shone in the bedroom, two people were lying on the bed. One of them was covered with a blanket while the other was lying there dressed and curled up.

When Zed woke up, he saw Jean there. He really felt protective towards her at the moment.

Zed frowned after he saw Jean's situation. He immediately reached his hands, moved her and covered her with a blanket. He noticed that she was so light and slim. Zed was a bit shocked. He hadn't ever noticed that she was so thin. Perhaps, she had lost a lot of weight during the past few months.

A hint of sympathy flashed in his eyes. He covered her up with the blanket and got off the bed. He stepped into the bathroom and turned the shower on. The warm water from the shower was flowing all over his body, and somehow soothed his hangover. He could usually control his drinking, and wouldn't get so much drunk like last night.

He frowned and tried his best to recall what happened last night. But, he totally couldn't remember what all happened. 'How did I get back home? And how did I lie down on the bed?' Zed asked himself.

He raised his hand and wiped off the water on his short hair. He turned off the shower, grabbed a clean bath towel and wrapped it around his waist. When he stepped out of the bathroom, the woman on the bed was suddenly gone.

Zed was so confused. He looked around and didn't find Jean and the blanket.

Where did she go?

The moment he stepped forward, he was tripped by a soft and rigid thing. He lost his balance and immediately fell on the carpet.

Ouch! He grunted with a muffled voice.

Jean suddenly opened her eyes and sat up quickly. She looked around. She had felt an earthquake in her dream that time.

Huh? Why was she on the ground? Jean looked at herself and realized that she was sleeping with a blanket on the floor.

What was that in her hand?

A bath towel?

Why was there a bath towel in her hand? How come? Jean turned around. She was astonished to find out that Zed was lying next to her. Zed was also stunned. But when he saw Jean, he suddenly realized something and instantly turned cold.

"How come … Were we sleeping on the floor?" She confusingly looked at him when she suddenly figured out that the man in front of her was totally naked. He was dressed in nothing!

He had a fair-colored skin, and a figure that was tight and beautiful. A bit of water was still dripping on his strong and solid chest. Jean moved her eyes all over his body.

When she saw something strange, she immediately covered her eyes and turned her head on her side. Then, she shouted at him, "You … You rogue!"

She took good care of him last night. How could he act like that to her? It was even still early in the morning!

"Who's a rogue?"

"You!" She pointed her finger to him without any hesitation. Yet, her eyes couldn't help but look at his body.

Zed was a little angry before, but when he saw Jean acting so funny, his interest quickly aroused. He slightly twisted his mouth and wore an evil smile, "You want to …?"

"What?" Jean was confused. Her eyes were wide-opened.

"You kept on looking at me. Doesn't it mean that you expect something to happen?" He said with a seducing voice. It seemed that he was trying to flirt with her.

Jean startled and immediately moved her eyes away from his body. Face turning red, she shook her head and stuttered, "Don't, don't ... talk nonsense."

"If you didn't mean that, then why wouldn't you give my bath towel back?" Zed enjoyed seeing her embarrassed.

"Huh?" Jean was dazzled. She suddenly realized that she was still holding the bath towel. After learning that, she threw the bath towel away and ran into the bathroom as fast as she could.

She went in front of the mirror and recalled what happened that time. She felt extremely embarrassed.

'Why would something so strange like that happen this morning? Why did I sleep on the floor?'

She still couldn't get any clue about it.

She stayed inside the bathroom for a while and washed herself up. She didn't get out until she was sure that there was nothing going on outside the bathroom.
