I’m Really Not Trying to Be Chased by the Heroine as the Villainous Playboy! – Chapter 584

Chapter 132: Seeds of Doubt

Under the merciless remarks of the Silver-Haired Girl, Roy indeed felt something stir within him.

His heart fluttered.

Though he seemed to be a Marquis’ son, it felt different—like a gift from a girlfriend, packed with unique intentions, and all the more precious because of it.

Who wouldn’t love that domineering CEO treatment?!

Huh? What’s a domineering CEO? That doesn’t sound like a word from Veszyra.

Led by the lady boss, they arrived at the fitting room on the second floor.

Called a fitting room, it was actually quite spacious, lined with various luxurious men’s clothing on both sides.

Declining Xue Nuo’s offer to help him dress, Roy picked out two pieces to try on himself.

The coat was fine enough, but asking the girl to help him put on the inner layer made him feel a bit shy.

Well, as Xue Nuo mentioned, they had only recently become a couple, and it seemed they weren’t yet at the stage of fully revealing themselves.

“Are you ready yet?”

An impatient voice came from outside the door.

“I’m ready!”

The moment Roy answered, Xue Nuo couldn’t contain herself and pushed the door open.

What met her eyes was the ever-handsome young man.

Roy wore a light-colored shirt, an elegant black vest, and fitted trousers, looking particularly stylish. Perhaps due to his amnesia, there was less of the calm indifference in his features, replaced with a youthful innocence.

However, this only added to Xue Nuo’s attraction.

The young and handsome little brother, reminiscent of a fluffy black dog, gave a sense of security while also making her want to pamper him.

Xue Nuo couldn’t help but swallow hard.

Unaware of the unusual look in the other’s eyes, Roy admired his new outfit in the mirror.

“This outfit seems even more expensive than the last ones, right?”

“It’s said to be made from the skin of a snow mountain dragon… um, if it’s too pricey, then never mind.” Due to his amnesia, Roy wasn’t very familiar with the current currency system, but the strings of zeros on the label really shocked him.

“Don’t worry about the price. As long as you like it, that’s all that matters,” Xue Nuo interrupted the boy’s concerns.

“Really, is that okay? Miss Xue Nuo, you’ve taken care of my food and accommodation, and now you’re spending so much today; let me at least buy some gifts in return.” Feeling indebted, Roy thought he should give something back.

Unbeknownst to him, this sentiment hit Xue Nuo right in the feels.

“Don’t worry. It’s nothing of concern; this level of giving between lovers is trivial.” With a couple of steps, Xue Nuo approached Roy.

“But if you insist on a return gift…”

With a graceful lift of her hand and a gentle push, Roy instinctively backed against the wall as Xue Nuo pressed closer.

“Let’s respond with actions instead,” the Silver-Haired Girl’s gaze deepened, her flirtatious smirk painting a picture of intrigue as she parted her lips, releasing a fragrant allure.

Unlike her cold demeanor towards outsiders, her warmth towards him was different.

Now, Xue Nuo was like a wolf, starved and zeroed in on her little lamb.

Xue Nuo was already tall, and with those high-heeled boots, she towered just a bit over Roy.

Now cornered by her, Roy felt his confidence wane.

Wow, you really are a domineering lady boss, huh?!

Isn’t it usually the guy who corners the girl in these situations?!

Shamefully, he found he didn’t mind it at all!

From the open mink coat, he caught glimpses of her delicate neck and slightly heaving bosom. At this close distance, he could sense the faint scent of blue roses.

No doubt, Xue Nuo noticed his lingering gaze, but instead of being offended, she seemed to play along, even inviting him to look!

In fact, she was also sizing him up!

Roy, having lost his memory, felt completely at her mercy, his face turning red.

I can’t take this anymore; who could withstand it?!

“I… how should I respond…”

“How to respond? Hmm, how do you want to, my Roy?”

The Silver-Haired Girl leaned in close, breaths brushing against his neck.

This left the young man trembling, his face flushing even more.

But despite her intense demeanor, Xue Nuo wasn’t much better herself; that bold move painted a rosy hue across her snowy cheeks.

What should they do next—was this half teasing and half sincere?

The ambiance was definitely nice. The shy boy was adorable.

But what’s next?!

At her age, Xue Nuo had of course learned about the principles of harmony between men and women, even giving lectures on the topic at the Academy.

However…

No one ever taught her how to flirt! She couldn’t just go all out, right?!

These rounds had already consumed all her dating skills.

Could it be… should she just lean in for a kiss? Does Roy prefer being the one to take charge, or being taken charge of?

The first kiss must be perfect!

Caught up in this conflict, Xue Nuo was clueless about what to do.

They maintained their ambiguous positions, staring blankly at each other, the blush on their faces only deepening.

Until the black-haired boy could hold back no longer and instinctively leaned in closer, yearning to press his lips against hers—

Huh?

In his mind, it felt like a chain tightened around his actions.

Offense.

Why did he feel like this was an offense…?

Just then, the door was slammed open.

“Have you two picked out your clothes…?”

The lady boss left her sentence hanging and immediately shut her mouth, breaking into a sweat.

What did she just see?!

Goodness, I know you nobles have your fun, but can’t you keep it down in my little shop?!

Terrified of knowing some scandalous secret, the lady boss trembled, “I-I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to!”

“It’s fine,” Xue Nuo calmly released her grip and walked past the boss as if nothing happened.

Seeing she wasn’t angry, the lady boss finally took a deep breath.

Truly, she was the lord of the border, open-minded and unconcerned about being caught!

Maybe she was just a part of their play…

Unbeknownst to her, after the Silver-Haired Girl walked out, she calmly covered her face and then bang! She bumped into the wall.

How careless!

I want to die!

How could I let someone see that embarrassing side of me?!

On the other side, Roy touched his lips, lost in thought.

Why did he feel that previous moment was an offense?

Especially since they were already lovers; what guy wouldn’t want to kiss his girlfriend?

Roy felt a foggy memory flash bits and pieces before him.

It seems he indeed had a girlfriend.

And he was indeed quite close with Xue Nuo.

As she said, they had gone out shopping for clothes together, and the black and white mink coats were gifts for each other.

But was Xue Nuo really his girlfriend?

The unanswered question planted a seed of doubt in the young man’s heart.
