Finally, Vera said what she wanted to say in her heart in one go.
Then she let out a foul breath and looked at Quill. There seemed to be a hint of provocation in her eyes.
Quill was slightly startled.
He didn't expect her to have such a crafty side.
Since she wanted to play, Quill didn't mind teasing her either. His hand that was originally wiping her sweat, then it slid down and fell on her shoulder. After listening to her words, he opened his hand, pressed on the back of Vera's neck, and lifted it.
"What did you say just now? I didn't hear it clearly. Can you repeat it?"
Vera was silent.
His hand was holding the back of her neck, and the temperature on his hand traveled to her body. It looked like he was threatening her. Vera did not dare to say anymore; she only blinked at him, not answering.
Quill narrowed his eyes, and his breathing got a little closer.
"Why are you so quiet? Weren't you so bold just
now?"
Vera still did not say anything.
"A good figure? She dresses boldly? She's to my liking?"
Vera's demeanor became even weaker. If Quill hadn't lifted her neck like that, she would have dropped her head to the ground at this time.
"Aren't you aware of what you're like?" Quill knocked on Vera's head with his other hand. "Have you seen any other women around me besides you after pursuing me for so long? You sure don't have a conscience."
The last of his words sounded abnormally affectionate; something hit Vera's heart violently, and she became nervous again. She reached out her hand like a cat and pulled down Quill's collar slightly. She whispered, "I-I'm just kidding, and... my figure is as good as hers..."
Her voice grew softer as she spoke, like a church mouse. If they hadn't been so close to each other, Quill wouldn't have heard it at all.
After finishing her words, Vera's face was completely red, like ripe peaches in summer, pink and extremely moving.
Seeing her like this, Quill's Adam's apple bopped. He found that he was actually muddled by her blush. After he scolded himself for being useless and asked where all the restraint and reason he used to be proud of had gone in his heart, he finally obeyed his heart. He lowered his head to kiss her lips.
However, before he could touch her lips, Vera dodged. She looked at the person who was only an inch away from her and said, "Lauren came over just now. I scolded her."
"Mm." Quill responded and continued to look for her lips.
Vera blushed as she dodged and said, "Is this your only reaction?"
He was still searching. When Vera turned her head, Quill's lips fell on her cheeks. A little annoyed, he directly pressed the back of her head and said in a low voice, "Don't move."
Vera wanted to turn her head, but she was being secured and couldn't move at all. She could only watch as he inched closer to her.
"But... I told you I scolded her. Are you not going to respond at all?"
Respond?
Quill narrowed his eyes and lowered his head to kiss her on the lips. He looked up again and said in a cold voice, "It's just an insignificant person. What response do you want me to give?"
Insignificant person?
Hearing his reply, the little bit of dissatisfaction in Vera's heart completely disappeared. She couldn't help feeling happy.
She grabbed Quill by the collar. "You said so. She's just an insignificant person. If she seduces you one day, you're not allowed to talk to her."
Quill laughed helplessly in a low voice. "Are you not confident in me?"
