With You For the Rest of My Life

Chapter 23 Kissing

His gentle voice spread in the cold night, and once again wetted her eyes.

In his mind, there was an answer about to come out. But he hadn't decided yet.

He lowered his head and kissed her smooth forehead, her eyelashes with salty and bitter tears, her pink cheeks and finally her lips.

Slowly he licked her dry lips with his tongue, and then he opened her and kissed her more deeply.

Rose's mind had been stirred up. It was like all her thoughts were lost. She had forgotten Amanda and the baby they didn't give birth to. She felt like that he and she were the only ones left in the world.

She was too tired to avoid. She stopped thinking about right or wrong, let go of those hatred and disappointment for the time being and let Burke do anything he wanted.

A sudden burst of embarrassing cough broke the subtle atmosphere between the two.

Hearing this, Burke slightly loosened his grip. Rose suddenly broke away from his arms and wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes unnaturally. Her face was a little red, and she didn't know if she was crying or for other reasons.

"What are you doing here?" After tidying up his clothes, Burke raised his head and frowned at the unexpected guest at the door.

Xavier seemed to be confused about what he had just seen. He rubbed his eyes and paused for a while before he realized.

"Well, I... I just came to the hospital to have a look. I thought Rose should have woken up, so I brought her some food. Uh... Am I in a bad time? " Xavier pointed at the midnight snack in his hand and smiled awkwardly as he scratched his head.

Burke cast him a cold glance, making Xavier shiver.

Even if he didn't know how to behave properly, he should have known that he had ruined something.

"Well, I may leave now. You two...continue."

Lying on the bed, Rose covered her face with her hands and tried to hide herself.

Burke was different from other people, he had always been so numb, looking at Rose's amusing behavior.

How could a woman, who had already been pregnant for him, be so shy?

He gently touched his lips just kissed by hers, which was still warm. He had to admit that Rose had the ability to make him out of control.

The self-control he had been proud of collapsed in front of her.

"Well..." Xavier, who had already walked out of the ward, came back and put the night snack box on the table in his hand carefully with an awkward smile. "I have bought the night snack. Rose, you can have some chicken soup, which is good for your health. I'll just leave them there, bye."

"Wait a minute," said Burke as he stopped Xavier who was about to leave. "I'll go downstairs with you. I'm just going to buy something."

"What?" Xavier turned around in a daze. "Don't you stay with her a little longer?"

Ignoring his teasing words, Burke took out the midnight snack brought by Xavier from the table, unpacked it, and took it to the small dining table beside Rose's bed. He said in a low voice, "I'll go to the convenience store next to the hospital to buy something. Do you need anything else?"

Looking at the steaming chicken soup, Rose slobbered at her mouth unconsciously and shook her head.

She was a little hungry.

"Okay. Wait for me, sweetie."

Rose: "......"

Xavier looked at Burke all the way with a strange look.

Although Burke was numb to everything, he should still feel uncomfortable when Xavier looked at him like this.

"Are you crazy today?"

Yes! The cold, expressionless face. That's Burke! Xavier slapped his thigh and cried, "I thought you went out of your mind today! It just wasn't you."

Burke focused on choosing the goods on the shelf, ignoring his teasing. Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

"Okay. Wait for me, sweetie." Xavier imitated the look of Burke just now and said what he said just now vividly.

In his impression, that icy man was never gentle.

Even Xavier, a big man indeed, couldn't help shivering by seeing that.

"I remember that your company is quite busy recently? If you have time to tease me, you have time to work. Lots of people are depending on you." Burke threw a bag of paper cups into the shopping cart

pushed by Xavier.

"Yes, I've been very busy, but as you know, if there's something about Rose, I'll have to put aside any work."

"You will make me think that you are coveting my wife." Said Burke.

"If I met Rose earlier than you, maybe I will." Xavier said half truely. "But since you married her, she will be my sister-in-law for the rest of my life."

Casting a glance at him, Burke paused for a few seconds and then turned his head without saying anything.

Xavier stopped at the wine area picked out a few bottles of beer from the shelves and put them in the basket.

He raised his watch and said to Burke, "It's still early. Let's have a drink? In my car."

Burke's eyes glanced at the beers, "Rose is waiting for me."

"Mr. Gu, it won't take you much time. Both of us are busy with our work. We rarely have a chance to sit down and have a talk. Besides, I don't think she will have a good rest with you around. You should let her have a good rest." Xavier shrugged.

With a poker face, Burke took out two bottles of beer from the basket and put them back on the shelf. "You can drink by yourself. Don't take me with you."

He picked a few jars of drinks from the shelf on the other side and threw them into the shopping cart, saying, "I can drink this. One of us will have to drive. Do not drunk-drive."

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Xavier's fair face. In fact, he had a face that was very popular among young girls. His skin was like milk, and could be easily broken by wind, and his eyes were like black grapes. He was very beautiful.

The dashing eyebrows now gave Xavier a much more valiant manner, making him look less feminine.

When he smiled, his dimples appeared on his cheeks, making him looked young.

But such dimples made Xavier's father feel distressed. The Yang Family had been in political for many years. What they needed most in the political field was a serious man with a serious appearance.

However, Xavier had such a beautiful face, always making people feel not serious when handling work.

Xavier's father simply ordered his son to try not to laugh while working.

The bright smile on his face was replaced by a serious, expressionless one.

"When I was a kid, I watched cartoons and I loved the strong and tall figures very much. I often thought that I was the same sort of person, but I didn't expect that the reality was like this. Why does I look like this? " Xavier sat on the co-pilot, twisted off the latte ring of the can, and shook his head and said.

"I remember that when you were at school, you received a lot of love letters just because of your good- looking face. You were not like this at that time. You were so excited that you specially carried those love letters and the courtyard to show off to Monk and other people." Ruthlessly said Burke.
