illicit relationship

When Liu Ning realized that she was hugging Xiao Tian, she didn't immediately stop the hug; instead, she raised her head and looked at him.

With a smile on his face, Xiao Tian looked at her and patted her back. "Down worry, we are safe here."

After seeing the expression on his face, Liu Ning wrapped her long slender arms around his waist and nodded her head. "Un."

Liu Ning had no idea as to why she kept hugging him. She suddenly remembered that she shouldn't embrace Xiao Tian because she was a married woman.

However, when Liu Ning wanted to stop the hug, she felt as if she was unable to move her arms, making her still embrace him tightly.

Her action surprised Xiao Tian a little. He thought that she would immediately pull away from the hug, but he was wrong because not only did she not stop the hug, but she even embraced him tighter as if she didn't want to separate from him.

Of course, Xiao Tian was thrilled by this because with this, he could assume that she began to open her heart to him.

'Why am I still hugging him? We shouldn't do this because I'm a married woman, and he is not my husband, but…'

Liu Ning wanted to find a reason as to why she kept embracing Xiao Tian. But the longer Liu Ning hugged Xiao Tian, the calmer her mood was, as if she had no problem with her husband.

"Are you still feeling afraid?" Xiao Tian inquired.

"Un." because Liu Ning still wanted to hug him, she decided to lie.

'Good! That is the answer I want.'

Xiao Tian smiled happily after hearing her words because, with that, he could embrace her longer.

However, when Xiao Tian noticed that the people around them began staring at them, Xiao Tian thought that it was time to stop the hug. "Lady Liu, I don't mind if you want us to keep embracing each other, but we have to stop now because other people are starting to look at us."

"Sorry." Liu Ning apologized and stopped the hug.

Xiao Tian stretched out his right arm and smiled, "If you are still feeling afraid, how about you hold my hands?"

Hearing his words, Liu Ning immediately raised her left arm. However, when she was about to hold his right hand, Liu Ning pulled back her arms.

Sigh! It seems like she still remembers that she is a married woman. Xiao Tian thought to himself.

Because Xiao Tian didn't want to force her to hold his hands, he pulled back his arms and smiled, "If you are already fine, let's see the fish again."

"Un," Liu Ning nodded her head.

But, to his surprise, when Xiao Tian was about to walk forward, Liu Ning suddenly pulled his shirt.

Her action made Xiao Tian stop his footsteps. "What's wrong, Lady Liu?"

But Liu Ning didn't answer him and kept pulling his shirt.

'Didn't you not want to hold my hand just now?'

At this moment, Xiao Tian guessed that Liu Ning wanted him to hold her hands. But because she was shy to say it, she only looked at him in the eyes.

With a smile on his face, Xiao Tian held her left hand and said, "Let's go over there."

"Un" Liu Ning's face blossomed into a smile when Xiao Tian was holding her hands.

Because Xiao Tian didn't want Liu Ning to feel afraid anymore, he headed to a place where various small fish were swimming in the water.

"Woa, the fish here are beautiful." Liu Ning smiled cheerfully when she saw a variety of small fish swimming around the coral reef.

"Yes. it's beautiful," Xiao Tian stated. "but…. not as beautiful as you."

Hearing his words, Liu Ning turned her head toward him and giggled, "What is this? Are you trying to seduce a married woman?"

At this moment, Liu Ning forgot that she was holding hands with Xiao Tian.

"What do you think?" Xiao Tian didn't give her an answer; instead, he wanted her to guess it.

"It seems to me that you are trying to seduce me?" when Liu Ning said this, a smile appeared on her face as if she was pleased when Xiao Tian was trying to seduce her.

Xiao Tian then brought his face closer to her ears and whispered, "That's right. I'm indeed trying to seduce you."

"Hahaha." Liu Ning laughed happily when Xiao Tian didn't try to deny it, "So, you admitted it. Are you aware that you are trying to seduce a married woman?"

"Of course, I'm aware of it." Xiao Tian then touched her other hand and looked into her eyes. "I'm sure all men in this world will do the same thing if they are with a gorgeous lady like you. Who does not want to win the hearts of a beautiful women?"

Hearing his words, Liu Ning stopped laughing and looked back at his beautiful black eyes.

'Does he really have a crush on me? But why? He knows that I'm a married woman, and not only that, he is a popular and successful handsome young man, so I am sure there are many attractive women out there who are happy to be his lover.'

Countless thoughts flashed across Liu Ning's mind when she wanted to know what made him like her.

"Do you really li-"when Liu Ning wanted to ask him whether he liked her or not, suddenly the words stuck in her throat.

Liu Ning was afraid that his answer would change everything. But at the same time, she also wanted to know about his feeling toward her. This made Liu Ning not know what to say to him.

'Interesting.'

Actually, Xiao Tian had guessed what she wanted to ask him, but because she stopped her words in the middle, Xiao Tian decided to ask her. "Lady Liu, did you want to ask me something earlier?"

"Xiao Tian, why are you treating me s-" like earlier, before Liu Ning could finish her words, she suddenly felt the words stuck in her throat again.

Because Liu Ning never finished her words, Xiao Tian decided to change the topic. "Let's see the fish over there."

 "Un," Liu Ning nodded her head.
