However, Sienna did not speak. Instead, her eyes were widened as she looked at him in silence. He felt uneasy in his heart from being stared at. Just as Zayn was about to speak, Sienna finally asked, “Did you enroll in the martial arts cup?”Zayn was stunned. He did not expect that Sienna’s exaggerated mannerism would actually be due to him enrolling in the martial arts cup. She did not have to go as far as that, did she?His gut instinct was telling him that she most probably did it as a prank on him. Hence, he let out a grunt and looked at Sienna vigilantly while he said, “What kind of trick do you have up your sleeve?”However, Sienna did something that astounded him next. She spread her arms and charged toward him abruptly. She hugged him tightly while he was still stunned and said in between sobs, “Why did you have to take part in the martial arts cup? You’re going to die. You’re gonna get yourself killed!”Zayn could immediately sense Sienna’s body colliding with his. “Co
“You! Do you really think that I don’t have the courage to hit you!?” said Zayn through his clenched teeth. His tone showed that he was infuriated for real. As long as Sienna was not looking to get herself hurt like a madman, she would be able to tell that Zayn was angered and not overstep her boundaries.However, Sienna was as stubborn as she was. It was as if she had no regard for him at all. “Hit me then. I won’t let you go even if you were to hit me to death anyhow!” she said loudly, becoming slightly annoyed as well. Her reaction provoked Zayn’s anger. One should know that they were in Waltz City and Barrow Cove was right ahead of them. He would encounter acquaintances at any moment. In fact, it was highly possible for him to bump into Faye who was coming home from work!Zayn was so angry now that he could not care about anything else now. He could not care less about Sienna’s identity, and in a fit blinded by fury, his hand flew out with a slap instantly. Moreover, he exert
However, Sienna’s standards were too high because of her family background, her personality, and her capabilities. She was destined not to be attracted to more than 99% of the men in the world. No man in her past managed to rouse her desire一that was, until Zayn…In truth, she did not regard Zayn highly from the start and she assumed that he was nothing much except for his impressive martial arts skills and that he was very gifted. Nevertheless, she began to get to know Zayn better slowly through their interactions afterward. Moreover, her heart was won by Zayn’s personality and charm. Otherwise, why would she have made Zayn her fake boyfriend willingly? She was an arrogant woman after all. Yet, Zayn did not seem to be attracted to her at all. Moreover, he was a married man and she found this to be very depressing for herself. She thought about not seeing Zayn for the rest of her life at one point. She had never shown this side of herself to Zayn before. In fact, she had never
It was fortunate that the car brushed past her instead of crashing into her. Moreover, she saw Zayn getting out of the vehicle immediately before charging toward her menacingly. At that very moment, the bandage on her heart was ripped off.…She kissed Zayn. Her heart had shattered. She was a little astounded and shy, but she had no regrets. She was delighted. This was something she had been wanting to do for a long time. She felt it was worth it even if Zayn was revolted and stopped speaking to her.Just as she was still immersed in the feeling of the kiss, he suddenly pushed her away. “You, you, you, you…”Zhan was shaking with anger while trying to berate her. His eyes looked panicked and guilty, the look in them piercing her heart ever so slightly. “Where’s your sense of propriety?! You’re the heiress of a powerful family!” Zayn was scolding her, yet he was tongue-tied and at a loss for words. After rambling, he could not finish a proper sentence. For some reason,
Zayn glared at Sienna’s stubborn demeanor, thinking he would angrily storm off. He found the unruly princess to be truly troublesome. However, he knew that Sienna would do something even crazier if he were to leave at that point. Sienna might even make her way to Barrow Cove to see Faye. Zayn would be doomed if that happened.“I’m not trying to get myself killed, but I’m willing to sacrifice myself for my country…” Zayn then realized something was off, so he hastily corrected himself by saying, “What nonsense are you talking about? Who said that I’m going to die? I’m going to be the champion! Who told you that I’m going to get myself killed? You came all this way just so you could scold me? You must have lost your mind!”Zayn was infuriated. His words seemed to agitate her, and she thumped on his chest with her fists. “Damn you, Zayn! You’re still lying to me! You’re obviously going to get yourself killed. Do you think you’re being magnanimous by doing so? Let me tell you this,
Zayn became anxious upon getting a call from Faye, and guilt quickly overcame him. Moreover, he was looking around as though afraid his wife would be lurking somewhere nearby. If she had seen what just happened between Sienna and himself, Zayn would be doomed.On the other hand, Sienna felt even more disgruntled upon noticing Zayn’s reaction. She huffed and slyly asked, “What’s the matter? Are you too scared to pick up when your wife is calling?”Upon hearing that, Zayn felt the urge to scold Sienna once again. The little lunatic still had the nerve to say such a thing. He had never cheated on Faye, whereas Sienna was obviously trying to seduce him!In any case, he could not be bothered to make a fuss about her anymore. Given how shameless the girl was, it would only be a waste of time.He hastily cast a glance at her while he said in a deep voice, “My wife is calling. Don’t do anything foolish or I’ll lose my temper for real.”“Sheesh…” she responded dismissively. Her ears then p
He turned around and met Sienna’s widened eyes. She was staring straight at him, ears perked up, and it was obvious that she had been eavesdropping. Noticing his stare, she immediately turned her head to the side and pretended to be checking out the scenery. Grunting unpleasantly, Zayn walked over and said, “My wife is calling me to urge me to go home. I’m not going to keep you company anymore. You may go ahead with your own plans.”However, Sienna sniggered in contempt and said, “You’re trying to lie to me. Your wife is with her best friend, so she’s obviously not home.”She glared at Zayn, and it was apparent that she looked down on his poor acting skills. Zayn rolled his eyes and said, “I’m going home anyhow. You may go wherever you want.”Upon saying that, he turned around and left. Sienna caught up to him and walked at his side. Zayn immediately furrowed his brows and said in a displeased tone, “What are you doing?”Sienna stared at him and said, “Who’s Ms. Peach?”
It was a very awkward remark to make, and it broke the thin barrier between them. Even though they were both aware of their flirtatious relationship, they were still separated by an unspoken boundary. Zayn had just crossed the line, and his remark made Sienna blush in embarrassment!Sienna badly wanted to deny it, but she was at a loss for words after she opened her mouth. She felt her cheeks burning with embarrassment and shame like she had never felt before. “You, you, you b*st*rd!” Sienna stuttered for a long while before she finally finished her sentence. Her expression was ferocious, yet her heart was not in her words. Indeed, she only seemed all the more guilty and anxious. Zayn regretted it as well. Why did he have to cross the line like that, knowing it would make things more awkward?At a loss for words, he let out two forced coughs and then said, “It’s getting late. You find yourself a place to stay.”Zayn got away from her like he was running for his life.Sienna w
