The Billionaire's Priceless Darling: 33 Days of the CEO's Pursuit - Chapter 243 - I Don't Mind Doing Something Else During the Day 9

The warmth of the glass was comforting in her palm.

Did he heat up the apple juice?

Didn’t he know that heated apple juice becomes sour and astringent, making it hard to drink?

Gu Xiaoai stared at the full glass of apple juice in her hand, suddenly feeling her throat dry. What excuse could she use to reasonably refuse this glass of apple juice?

“Gu Xiaoai!” Li Juefeng, seeing her hesitation, sat down at the foot of her bed with dissatisfaction. He picked up a spoon, scooped a thin layer of apple juice, and brought it to her lips. His dark eyes were deep and somber, “Don’t force me to make you drink it!”

…

Tyrant!

Looking at the spoonful of apple juice so close to her, Gu Xiaoai braced herself for the unpleasant taste, closed her eyes, and swallowed it in one gulp. A rich aroma spread throughout her mouth.

The warmth spread through her stomach.

It wasn’t as sour as she imagined, nor as astringent. The rich apple fragrance filled her mouth, and her furrowed brows relaxed involuntarily.

It seemed like something else had been added to the apple juice, making it fragrant and smooth, much more refreshing than the porridge housekeeper Tong brought in the morning.

“Finish it.” Li Juefeng scooped another spoonful and brought it to her lips.

This time, Gu Xiaoai didn’t struggle internally and drank it directly. It was indeed delicious. How did he do it?

“What did you add to the apple juice?” Gu Xiaoai couldn’t help but ask.

“Poison.”

“…”

Li Juefeng glared at her irritably. Her earlier hesitation over the apple juice made it seem as if he really intended to harm her.

This woman, did she really not trust him?

What good would it do him to worsen her health?

She was sick now, and he had to restrain himself. Every night after caressing her, he had to take a cold shower before he could sleep.

Her illness made it more difficult for him to endure than for her.

But he didn’t want to force himself on her either, lest he worsen her condition, and his benefits would be indefinitely postponed.

Li Juefeng pecked her apple-scented lips with frustration before continuing to feed her the apple juice, “Finish it and then sleep.”

After swallowing a mouthful of apple juice, Gu Xiaoai shook her head, “I can’t sleep during the day. I’ll just read some magazines later.”

Hearing this, Li Juefeng’s eyes suddenly darkened, and he gazed at her clean and pure face with a hint of suggestiveness, “I don’t mind doing something else with you during the day.”
