Because I Cannot Hurt You-Chapter 528 Technically, I am a doctor but...

Jack leaned towards Shuang, making her sit rooted at her place. She watched his handsome face getting closer and closer to her, her breath getting stuck in her throat at the sight of his beautiful bluish-grey eyes.

Is he…Is he…

Just like on Zizi and Yunru's wedding day, was he going to kiss her again now?

The distance between them was so close now that she could see his long eyelashes. He bent further as if really trying to kiss her, and she held in her breath.

But he brushed past her face and touched her hair instead. He caught a small leaf and showed it to her. "There was a leaf stuck in your hair," he smiled.

Shuang rapidly blinked her eyes and stared at him and then the leaf.

"Oh? Oh…" she snapped out of her daze. "So leaf…I don't know how it got stuck over my hair."

Jack narrowed his eyes and amusingly cocked his brow. "Were you expecting something else?"

"..."

"Oops, I am sorry. The position was indeed misleading."

"..."

Her gaze darkened. Her heart was beating all over her chest and her breaths had turned messy in anticipation. But here he was teasing her.

Shuang glared at him. "Why will I misunderstand anything!? It was just a leaf, after all," she snorted. "Nothing to fret over."

"Are you saying that to me or consoling yourself?"

Her mouth twitched.

"I am getting late for my meeting. I will go, or my assistant will chew me up."

She shrugged and turned to leave when Jack caught her wrist again. "What-"

The question remained on the tip of her tongue as she was kissed by Jack. Her eyes widened, and she couldn't move. He grabbed the back of her head and pressed his lips on hers a tad bit firmer, making the kiss long and deeper. He left after lightly sucking her lower lip.

Jack was pleased with her dumbfounded expression. He tapped her nose and shook her up. "Keep thinking about me like this until you are helpless but fall for my charms." 𝑓re𝘦𝔀𝗲𝘣𝘯𝘰νℯ𝒍.c𝗼ｍ

"You…"

"Mam!" Her assistant came running out of the company and waved at her crying tears of happiness. "You are finally here! The client! The client!"

Her mouth twitched. "Coming!"

She looked at Jack who was gazing back at her with full concentration. It made her feel as if she wasn't allowed to escape anywhere. He was there. His eyes were following her everywhere.

She cleared her throat and silently walked out of the car, making a smile curl his lips.

"That day is not far…"

—

The meeting was long and the work it left upon Shuang was even more tedious with a bunch of stuff to sort out. By the end, she was tired. Dead tired.

It was almost nine in the evening when Shuang stepped out, lethargically. She sighed but all her tiredness washed away the moment he saw a familiar figure waiting for her.

Shuang recalled the kiss and felt her throat going dry. She stepped before Jack. "You are not my chauffeur, Jack."

He chuckled. "Then what do you want me to be? How about a boyfriend?"

She coughed. "You-"

"I know you haven't forgotten me asking you out, and I also know that you have been thinking about it ever since, which makes me super happy to occupy your heart and mind."

"..."

He smiled and patted her head. "Don't worry. I won't put any pressure on you."

"... Thanks-"

"I will just keep kissing you now and then to make your heart flutter more and more for me."

"..."

"I am gonna take you by surprise, so you better be prepared. Now, let's go party."

"Huh? Party?"

"Yeah. Let's go clubbing and chill out. If I drop you home, you are just gonna play more games and tire yourself out."

She gritted her teeth in annoyance.

Why does he know that so well?

"So instead of torturing your eyes and body like that, you need to relax to the music and chill with some drinks, burger and fries. That's what we do in America."

Shuang chuckled. "Fine…"

"Great!" He beamed. "Let's go!"

—

There was good music at the club. The beats were poppy and jazzy and people laughed on the dance floor. On a table at a distance, Shuang and Jack were busy munching upon their dinner.

"This is shoooo good!" Shuang nodded in appreciation. "The burger is sho delicious."

Jack smiled with pride. "Of course, it does. The first thing I did when I arrived in China was search for the best clubs and pubs and restaurants where they serve the best burgers."

Shuang gave him a thumbs up. "You did a proper job as a half American."

He grinned.

After eating their fill, Jack asked for a dance to which Shuang agreed. They hit the dance floor with their solid moves, making everybody in awe of them. Their steps were light and casual but full of energy and vigor.

A while later, Jack said in her ear due to the music, "Wait here for me, okay. I will be back in a moment."

Shuang nodded, thinking he might want to head to the washroom.

He left the dance floor with a smile which pretty soon disappeared as he made his way towards a man seated at the very corner. The music was high and it was slightly darker, so the man didn't even realize when Jack grabbed him by his collar and dragged him out of the area.

Outside in the corridor where there wasn't any sign of any person passing by, Jack threw the man and grabbed his phone. The man was terrified and speechless with how fast things happened.

Jack coldly swiped on his phone and a dangerous glint flashed in his blue eyes. "Peeping tom, huh? Secretly clicking pictures of dancing women."

He stiffened and broke into a cold sweat. "N-No! You are wrong! Give me back my phone!"

Jack swiped some more and found Shuang's pictures. His blue eyes now looked as if a thin layer of ice covered them.

The man was flailing his arms to reach his phone, but Jack suddenly caught him by his neck, choked him and hit his neck on the wall. The man felt pain in his neck area and gasped, feeling breathless on being choked.

"You are messing with the wrong person here, buddy," Jack coldly smiled. "Technically, I am a doctor so I should be your savior, right? But in my younger days, I was a hardcore delinquent who have beaten the shit out of adults on New York streets. So that makes me your enemy now. A very bad enemy."
