Love of Tomorrow

Chapter 303 A Punishment

Looking at how perplexed Vania was, Hanson was amused. After sneaking a glance at her, he sighed while looking at his hurt hand. “Look at my hand. It became like this after saving you and the four little ones. If this were the past, one would be rewarded with a lifelong partner for saving another’s life. Sigh. Looks like the times have changed…”

Hanson sat down while holding his injured hand up. Looking left and right, he seemed to be directing his words at Vania, “Look. My hand only became like this because I saved you all. Now, I can’t even bathe.”

His sighing expression looked as if he was hinting that Vania was an ungrateful person.

Frustrated, Vania felt a bit helpless at this situation.

Closing her eyes, Vania only waved before saying, “Alright. I’ll help you bathe.”

Just treat it as paying him back. Even though Vania convinced herself, she still could not get over the fact that she was about to help Hanson bathe.

On the other hand, Hanson’s eyes lit up after he heard Vania’s words. But, he still had to put up an act so he said, “Since you’re so unwilling, how could I force you? If others knew about this, they would say that I was forcing you around just because I saved your life.”

Pouting, Vania cursed him inside. Who else would know about this? There are only the two of us here. Besides, he is indeed using his status to take advantage of this situation.

Vania only replied after looking at how fake Hanson was being, “If so, then you can just bathe on your own.” She did not care about this anymore.

Hanson’s pupils dilated, as he became as stiff as a rock.

Wait, this isn’t how things were supposed to go.

Seeing how lost Hanson was made Vania very smug as she couldn’t help but let out a smile.

It was only when he saw Vania snicker did he say, “Very good. You dare play a trick on me.”

While stating that, he pulled Vania, making her sit on top of him. “So, how should I punish you?”

Vania, who was so close to Hanson’s face, felt the warmth of his breath, resulting in her heart beating faster. Especially when he said the word ‘punish’, Vania’s first thought was to kiss, so she blushed involuntarily.

“Haha…” Hanson only laughed happily upon seeing Vania being so shy.

Immediately, Vania pushed his chest away while quickly changing the subject. “Let me go. Weren’t you going to bathe?”

She dared to guarantee that if she did not change the subject soon, Hanson would take advantage of her again.

However, she merely pressed her lips tight after seeing Hanson smile even more smugly, realizing that her change of subject was not all that effective.

If she were to help Hanson bathe, she would lose anyway.

To her surprise, Hanson only nodded and said very unwillingly, “Alright. I won’t punish you since you’re going to help me bathe.”

While stating that, he relaxed his grip on Vania, looking as if he was about to let go of her. Vania, who felt this, immediately stood up and tried to get away.

Nevertheless, the moment she stood up, Hanson tightened his grip once again and hugged her. Due to the momentum, Vania’s face was only an inch away from Hanson’s lips.

This made him smile even wider. “Since you’re being so proactive, I’ll help myself then.” His lips then closed in on Vania’s. If she were to open her mouth at that moment, their lips would definitely meet.
