Chapter 8: You Look Very Handsome

She was a timid girl, and such words were difficult for her to say.

After she finished saying those words, her fresh face turned slightly red. Under the light, it brought out vivid beauty.

Her skin was very good while her fair face was as smooth as silk and tender like a baby’s. It was as though her skin would break with a touch. It was pure and beautiful.

Gabriel squinted and sized her up before his thin lips curled with a hint of sarcasm. “I won’t take just any woman who takes the initiative to be my girlfriend.”

Serenity was embarrassed, and her white cheeks were tinted red. This made her look even more charming while her clear eyes were especially bright and pure.

She gently bit down on her lips and gathered her courage to hug his waist, yet she did not dare to plaster herself on him.

She raised her head and stared into his eyes. “Can you take a look at me, then?”

“Are you short of money?” His eyes had a hint of mockery as he glanced at her smooth arms, which were circled around his waist.

“You are very handsome, so being your woman is not disadvantageous.” She smiled, her black eyes shining with light under the chandelier.

Gabriel coldly scoffed. “Is there anything more?”

She slightly froze before shaking her head. “No.”

Gabriel had seen many women like her, but she was the first who’d said it straightforwardly.

He could not help but look at her a few more times.

Even after a long time, he did not speak, so Serenity raised her head and met his indiscernible pair of eyes before her gaze moved down and landed on his thin lips.

She tip-toed and leaned closer to him, yet she had just touched the side of his lips when she was pushed away by Gabriel.

The man’s dull voice had no emotions. “Take a bath first.”

“Okay,” she replied and entered the bathroom. Then, she opened the water valve before standing under the showerhead, her heart beating fast.

She felt regret for a moment and thought she should not be so rash. She stayed in the bathroom for a long time before putting on the robe and taking a deep breath as she pulled the bathroom door open.

Gabriel leaned against the head of the bed and stared at the person who walked out of the bathroom. Her exquisite face turned pinkish-red due to the mist, and the loose bathrobe exposed her delicate collarbone, which was crystal clear, clean, and flawless.

Serenity tugged on the bathrobe. The bathrobe belonged to Gabriel, and on her, it was loose and big. It almost reached her foot, so she looked a little comical.

Gabriel noticed her cautious effort to hold the bathrobe and furrowed his brows slightly. “If you’re regretting it, you can leave now.”

Serenity hesitated for a moment before gently biting down on her lips and walking forward. Then, she loosened the bathrobe on her.

Although she was thin, she still had a well-developed body. Her skin was as smooth as porcelain, glossy and delicate. Under the light, her skin shone with gentle radiance.

Serenity leaned forward and kissed him. She was inexperienced and knew only how to rub her lips against his. Gabriel tilted his head to the side and avoided her. “Do you lack experience in this?”

Her cheeks immediately blushed red, and she wished she could bury her head into the bedsheets before she hesitantly said in a deep voice, “Yes.”

Gabriel took a glance at her reddish face. As they were close to each other, he could clearly see her long and black eyelashes fluttering, which exposed her nervousness.

He was not a clean and honest person, so he would not expect the other party to be one either, but as he stared at her embarrassed look, he still was startled slightly.

Serenity slightly lowered her eyes. Even after a while had passed, he had no reaction. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to shrink her head into her neck.

She wanted to climb down from his body, but in the next second, he held the back of her head before pushing her face down and flipping their positions.

With a spin, Serenity held his neck in shock while her eyes had a helpless look for a moment.

The two of them had changed positions. As she stared at the handsome face on top of her, her breathing stopped.
