Married by Accident: The Rich CEO's Deeply Rooted Pampering Tactics

Chapter 122 Taking the Opportunity to Punish

Upon hearing this, Qiao Luo was taken aback.

He had never mentioned it since they met, and she had assumed he would never bring it up again.

However, now that the topic has been brought up, she will not avoid it.

So she pursed her lips and asked, "Do you...believe what's said online?"

She asked hesitantly, but Lu Tingnian didn't answer. Instead, he stared at her and asked her in return.

Do you think I should believe it?

Qiao Luo shook her head. "I don't know."

Lu Tingnian wanted to spank her, and in fact, he did, pulling her close to him.

"You still won't trust me, Qiao Luo, you little ingrate."

As he spoke, he lightly patted her buttocks twice, as if as punishment.

Those two blows left Qiao Luo completely stiff, like a frozen fish, unable to move a single part of her body, especially the places he had just slapped, which felt burning hot after the stiffness subsided.

It was as if she had been roasted over a fire, scalding hot. Other parts of her body reacted rapidly, their temperatures soaring, and even her cheeks felt hot.

Qiao Luo felt extremely uncomfortable, especially considering that she was naked underneath, and she wondered if he had noticed when he patted her.

If he sensed it, how embarrassing would she be, as if she were deliberately seducing him?

Heaven knows how wronged she was. When she went in, he didn't give her any underwear, and she couldn't ask him for it. If there were a hole in the ground right now, she would crawl into it without hesitation.

Her heart was pounding wildly, her mind racing, completely unaware that Lu Tingnian's eyes were fixed on something that was practically on fire.

However, he reacted quickly, maneuvering the wheelchair to the wardrobe and taking out one of his own coats to put on her.

The thick coat covered the parts that had been the subject of much speculation, and Qiao Luo finally felt a sense of relief.

She looked into Lu Tingnian's eyes, her shyness tinged with gratitude and relief.

"that……"

She wanted to explain to Lu Tingnian his questioning, but Lu Tingnian interrupted her as soon as she opened her mouth.

Are you trying to say again that you're not used to trusting me yet?

Qiao Luo pursed her lips. "A little, but not entirely."

"Oh?"

Lu Tingnian listened attentively.

Qiao Luo then gathered her thoughts and said, "Actually, I know you might not believe it, but I'm not sure because there are so many such comments online. As the saying goes, 'three men can make a tiger,' and I'm afraid that if too many people say it, you'll think I'm that kind of person."

After Qiao Luo finished speaking, she lowered her head. She looked like an insecure little girl, and Lu Tingnian couldn't bear to question her any further.

His original intention was not to reprimand her, but simply to take the opportunity to punish her.

However, seeing her so trembling, he felt a little sorry for her.

"Putting all that aside, didn't you ever think of discussing this with me when you encountered something like this?"

Despite feeling reluctant, some things still need to be clarified.

Moreover, she has never mentioned it since the incident.

He worried that, like the previous two times, she wouldn't trust him. If that were the case, what would be the point of their relationship warming up over the past few days?

"I..." Qiao Luo stammered.

Lu Tingnian: "I'm not saying this to blame you, but to let you know that no matter what happens, I will face it with you."

Lu Tingnian reiterated this point.

Qiao Luo bit her lip. She understood what he meant, but her attention wasn't on that right now; rather...

"Then...can you please stop being angry?" she asked, pursing her lips.

Lu Tingnian: "..."

So all his talk was for nothing.

"I'm not angry. Let's talk about your plan." He said helplessly, getting back to the point.
