Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman
Chapter 349 You Can Help Me Walk Upstairs

"I really want to comfort you, but..." Slightly lowering her head, Jean pretended to be embarrassed and hesitated. Her big eyes blinked and she stopped speaking for a while. "But what?" Seeing her expression, Zed looked at her in confusion.

'When did Jean learn to keep others guessing and make them feel anxious?' wondered Zed, a little annoyed.

"But I really don't know what to do to make you feel better!" Jean turned her bright eyes, deliberately played innocent, and spoke in a mischievous tone. To Zed, it seemed as if the person who had just been depressed was not her.

"You little cheater..." This time Zed knew he had been fooled by Jean. At the moment, he didn't know whether to laugh or to be angry. Finally, he reached out and turned her around. Slowly, he pulled her and made her lean on his chest. Now he spoke in a tired tone, "You can help me walk upstairs. I'm so tired today..."

After that, he let out a yawn to make her believe.

Jean initially wanted to refuse, but when she heard his yawn, her face instantly showed concern. She couldn't help but start worrying and nagging, "Why are you so tired? Did you not sleep well these days when I was away? Now please go upstairs and sleep! I really don't know how to criticize you for being so careless. But remember, you are an adult! Why can't you learn to take good care of yourself..."

Slowly, Jean helped Zed walk up the stairs. As they walked, she kept on shouting at him for his carelessness.

"Honey, is it because of you that I am so tired?" Zed lowered his head, kept his lips close to Jean's ear, and whispered in a seductive voice. Along with this, he blew warm breath into her tiny ear. A very normal sentence was uttered but she tingled with sensation.

At first, Jean didn't understand his words. But when she thought hard, she realized the vague hints in his words and her face turned red in an instant.

"Zed, don't talk nonsense." Jean cast a stern glance at him but it was mixed with a slight embarrassment. With her reddish cheeks, it looked like she was flirting with him.

"Believe me. I swear I'm not talking nonsense! I'm just telling the truth." Zed winked at Jean and said innocently, as she had just done.

"But I think you're playing me on purpose!" Seeing that he was still talking nonsense, Jean immediately shook off Zed's hand in anger and sulkily ran upstairs alone.

Looking at Jean's hurried figure leaving, Zed was left behind with a small smile on his face.

'My little wife is so cute when she is shy, but these days her temper is getting out of hands.

How can she be so cruel and leave me alone?' He thought and let out a sigh.

Now he felt defeated and sulked around like a poor man.

Jean blushed and her heart started to beat faster after Zed flirted with her. As soon as she ran back to their bedroom, she slammed the door shut. Standing in the door, she bit her lip and tried to lock the door to keep Zed out.

In truth, Jean was blushing like a tomato but realized that Grandpa Benjamin and Grandpa Dan were at home right now. If she and Zed made too much noise, then they might end up waking.

And so, she indignantly picked up her bathrobe and walked to the bathroom.

'Well, if Zed comes back, I will ignore him for a while and frighten him. That will stop him from teasing me.' Jean decided while taking a shower.

Zed went back to their bedroom but did not see his sweet wife. Then he looked in the direction of the bathroom.

Sure enough, the warm yellow lamplight in the bathroom poured out from the crack between the door and its frame, and he also heard the sound of water splashing.

Zed's eyes lit up and a fascinating smile made its way from the corner of his mouth. He turned and picked up his bathrobe and decided to enter the bathroom.

Gently, he opened the door and his eyes fixated on Jean's graceful figure which was visible through the steam.

And he smelled the familiar fragrance coming from Jean and took a second to enjoy it. Unable to take it anymore, Zed went straight over and hugged Jean from behind.

Jean looked back in utter shock. When she saw that it was Zed, she exclaimed in embarrassment,"Zed, why did you come in?

Can you go out, please? I'm taking a shower now! You can come in and wash after I finish." Her warm skin rubbed against his slightly cold suit. This whole scene made Jean feel shy, and so she struggled desperately. In a shyly and urgent tone, she requested, "Please let me go! Didn't you just say you were tired? Let me wash quickly. Then you can also have a shower. I promise I will be done fast."

"But I'm not tired now." Zed said while he moaned. He got closer and looked at her with a teasing smile. "And I can stay here to help you scrub your back so that we can wash faster. You know I'm really in a hurry to sleep."

Jean looked at Zed helplessly. At first, she wanted to ignore him, but she hadn't expected he would stick so tightly. 'I don't have a choice now,' she thought.

At last, her heart softened as she saw the pitiful expression on his face.

"Well, let me go first," Jean finally agreed reluctantly.

Deep down, she knew if they kept wasting their time like this, both of them would end up in the bathroom all night.

When Zed heard Jean's consent, he instantly glowed with joy. He slowly loosened his hands, but he still hated to let go Jean's soft body.

Jean felt helpless when she saw Zed coming in without taking off his clothes. 'He expects me to take his clothes off, 'thought Jean, a little annoyed.

She resignedly unbuttoned Zed's suit. Looking at that expensive and well-ironed suit crumpled after being soaked in water, her face expressed a look of disapproval.

'Zed really ruined this expensive suit. How am I going to bring it back to its former glory,' Jean wondered.

Seeing Jean's hesitation, Zed was amused. He was in a good mood and took Jean into his arms again with ease.

"Oh! Zed..." Zed's sudden action startled Jean, who was concentrating on his buttons. She could not help but let out an annoyed sigh. 'This man loves to catch me off-guard, Jean realized. 0000
