It'll Come Naturally -
Chapter 163 Would You Marry Me
"What do you prefer to be called? Miss Leng? Leena Leng, or Leena?" Kevin teased Leena. They were both drunk the other night. They didn't even bother getting to know each other before jumping into bed. If he hadn't left that note the next morning, Leena would probably never know who she slept with!
"Chief of Staff Gu, Leena Leng is fine." Leena answered reluctantly, curling her lips. 'Miss? Miss your ass! I just had sex with you once, and somehow I'm a "Miss" to you?"
"Chief of Staff Gu? So formal! That's kind of a strange way to get acquainted. Leena... Don't tell me you forgot that night already." Kevin deliberately drew each word out, teasing her. He laughed wickedly. His overly intimate address made Leena's skin crawl. She couldn't believe it! He was another one of those crooked men! Who said that military people were all serious and stern. Then how could they explain this mischievous, improper man before her? He wore the most solemn uniform in the world while saying the most shameless words.
"Um... So... I had a little extra booze the other night. That's why... That's why I behaved so awfully. Besides, you wasn't in your military uniform. How could I know that I got involved with a major general? You can't hold that against me." Leena remembered that it was she who seduced him that night, and really wanted to cry... Why did he want her to discuss that here, with so many people around?
"Let's go for a walk! Come on! Let's go!" Kevin tried to hold back his laughter, thoroughly amused by the girl. 'And I thought women had an advantage when it came to sex.' And it was her first time, so how did she get it backwards? Why was she afraid that he was going to hold it against her? Kevin didn't know whether she was innocent or simply naive.
"Go... Go where?" Leena looked at him defensively, filled with suspicion.
"What? I thought you wanted to look around the base. You can't see anything in this canteen." Kevin raised his eyebrows and found her apprehension funny. She acted as if he were going to gobble her up.
Leena slapped her forehead in frustration. What was she thinking? Could it be that she was the one who's shameless, rather than Kevin? Why would he take her somewhere unsafe? Why was that the first thing that crossed her mind?
Kevin smiled knowingly and didn't say much else. He picked up his cap and walked out, and Leena cringed at his attitude. Again!
The two walked in a line on the shaded walkway. As they passed, soldiers would salute or say hi to Kevin. Everyone looked at them curiously. They wanted to know the nature of the pair's relationship.
Leena had no interest at all in seeing the military base. All she could think about was how to make Kevin shut up about the other night. She was so lost in thought that she didn't realize Kevin had stopped walking, and bumped right into him.
"Is this how you walk? Looking down but not ahead?" Kevin didn't know what to say. So he was a little lost in thought as well, which was why he stopped. But he didn't expect that Leena would bump into him like that.
"Who asked you to stop all of a sudden?" Leena touched her sore nose, looking ever so innocent. 'This guy has a temper!' Silently, Leena made a note of another one of Kevin's misgivings.
"You hurt yourself, huh!" Kevin knew how tough his body was. He hit the gym a lot. His muscles were very firm, so it was no wonder it hurt Leena's delicate nose.
"It's alright. I can take it." Although she brushed him off, deep down Leena couldn't stop complaining. 'Damn it! Why do you have to train your muscles so hard? Use them as rocks? My nose was almost shattered.' Kevin saw through her right away, but he didn't want to call her out. Instead, he asked another question:
"Have you thought about it? Can I have my answer now?" Since he would soon return to the city, Kevin's heart was slowly tormented by his pain. He imagined that once he had gone, that woman would be out of his reach forever!
"What answer? Thought about what?" Leena looked at him in utter confusion. She didn't try to scheme against him like she usually did with other people. Perhaps everyone had his or her own nemesis! Kevin was her weak spot. Facing him, she would constantly lose it. She couldn't keep her head around him.
Kevin was a bit upset. So Leena forgot all about it! If they hadn't accidentally met, then she would probably have forgotten he ever existed!
"The answer to 'would you marry me.' I will take responsibility for that night." Just thinking about going on blind dates with strangers made Kevin's head hurt. Being with any other woman other than Daisy was a chore. So why couldn't it be Leena?
"Chief of Staff Gu, um... You're not serious, are you?" Leena asked. 'This can't be real. He's pretty easy on the eyes, and he's got a great career in the military...but I don't want to throw my youth away just for him.' Besides, they just had a one night stand. There was nothing between them. Did he want that kind of shoddy marriage?
"I would never joke about this. I need a wife now, and you lost your virginity to me, I'm willing to be responsible for you."
Kevin said contemplatively. A hint of pain appeared behind his eyes. Although he couldn't promise that he could let Daisy go, he would make sure that he'd never hurt another woman. Once he got married, he would shove his love for Daisy aside. It wouldn't be a disavowal of love, but he simply couldn't afford to love her any more. As a soldier, he had to take responsibility for his actions.
"Well... You really don't have to be responsible for me. Remember who flirted first. It's not your fault." As Leena spoke, she blushed a little. She kept going over it in her mind, but still couldn't believe how bold she was that night. Why did she actively flirt with him?000000000000000
