“Yes,” Xavier said while gazing into her eyes, “you can slap me on my left cheek. If that still doesn’t appease you, you can hit me on the right. We can go home once you’re done hitting.”

“You mean it?” Winnie lifted her hand and pinched his cheek. “Come to think of it, that sounds like a good plan. I’ll leave blithely after hitting you. That would be quite a scene compared to how they asked me about the wedding earlier. But are you ready to do this?”

“Why ask me?” Xavier stared intently at her. “Just do it at your pace.”

Winnie narrowed her eyes. “Somehow, I feel you don’t want me to hit you.”

“That’s right,” Xavier inched closer and whispered in a deep voice, “I just want to savor every inch of your body.”

“What makes you think you can do that?” Winnie smirked before putting her hand into his coat’s pocket.

Despite the subtle tease, they knew they should not display physical intimacy in public.

Nonetheless, the intimacy they engaged in and the bickering over a power struggle would always bring them closer to each other.

In this particular leg of the race, Winnie had the upper hand as she managed to bite the man’s chin.

Under such circumstances, Xavier would always forget how he got mad in the first place.

Her action rendered him speechless. “You’re really my bane, Winnie.”

“What’s wrong? You mad?” she asked.

“Of course not,” he replied, “I couldn’t be happier.”

Winnie chuckled. “Your bane is going to feed you some fruits now.”
