Chapter 85 Rock Climbing And Fighting
Celeste reminded Marcus, “I haven’t added any seasonings yet, so remember to put some in when you cook. Otherwise, it won’t have any flavor.”
Marcus nodded. Under Celeste’s gaze, he took a large spoonful of salt from the side and put it in.
Celeste was shocked. “You only need half a spoonful of salt for such a small dish. Why did you put so much?”
When Marcus heard Celeste’s words, he got some salt out of the pot and continued to cook. “Is it okay now?”
Celeste nodded and continued to watch Marcus cook.
Although the way he cooked indicated he was just a dilettante, fortunately, he listened to her advice. And he learned things quickly.
Shortly after, Marcus finished cooking and brought them to the table one dish after another. Celeste prepared a portion of pasta for each of them, and then they went to the dining table to eat together.
Marcus patiently and gently asked Celeste throughout the meal if the food suited her taste, displaying such attentive behavior that Celeste couldn’t help but glance at him a couple of extra times.
After the meal, Marcus took the initiative to clean up all the dishes. Celeste sat on the sofa and played with her phone. When Marcus came out after washing the dishes, Celeste put away her phone and stood up. “It’s getting late. I’ll go back first.”
Marcus raised his hand and glanced at the watch on his wrist. “Are you sleepy?”
“Not yet,” said Celeste.
“Then how about staying for a drink and chatting with me? Let me get to know you better,” Marcus suggested.
‘Drink?‘ Celeste subconsciously glanced at Marcus’s abdomen. “Are you sure your condition allows you to drink alcohol?”
Just as Marcus was about to say yes, Celeste’s cold gaze instantly landed on him.
Instinctively, he changed his words. “I’m just joking with you. I’ve never thought of drinking. Shall we have coffee?” “Coffee? You don’t want to sleep tonight?” Celeste asked.
Marcus was at a loss for words.
He asked, “Shall we have a glass of milk?”
Celeste stood up. “No need. I’ll go back first. You should get some rest.”
Marcus was quite speechless. ‘We can’t drink alcohol or coffee. And she doesn’t want to drink milk. What exactly does she want to drink?‘
Marcus looked at Celeste, who was about to leave. He went forward and grabbed her arm. “If you leave like this, I won’t have a chance to get to know you. So stay and chat with me for a while, okay?”
Celeste looked at Marcus in front of her. She withdrew her arm from his hand, sat back on the sofa, and asked, “So, what do you want to talk about?”
Marcus walked to Celeste’s side and sat down. “I want to know your hobbies.”
‘To know my hobbies? There’s probably quite a lot. I might not be able to finish even if I talk all night, Celeste thought before saying, “I have a lot of hobbies.”
“Such as?” Marcus asked.
“Such as racing, E–sports, composing, playing the piano, dancing, singing, and so on,” Celeste replied.
Marcus was shocked. “You can do everything that you just said?”
Celeste shook her head. “No, I can do more than these things. As long as it’s something I can learn, I can do it.”
Marcus suspected that there was something wrong with his ears. “What did you just say?”
“I said that as long as it’s something I can learn, I can do it. Why? You don’t believe me?” Celeste asked.
Indeed, Marcus didn’t believe it. It was because he thought one’s abilities and energy were limited. ‘There are so many things to learn in this world. How can Celeste have learned all of them?‘
“Are you kidding me?” Marcus asked.
Successfully unlocked!
‘Why would I tease him with such things? What i saius ue. I have canicu whatever I can. It’s just that I have mastered some of them more proficiently while others are less so, Celeste thought.
Celeste crossed her legs and yawned as she leaned against the sofa. “What I said just now is true. There’s nothing I can do if you don’t believe me. Alright, let’s not talk about my hobbies. Let’s talk about yours. What hobbies do you have?”
Chapter 85 Rock Climbing And Fighting
“I like rock climbing, fighting, and things like that,” Marcus replied.
Celeste also liked rock climbing and fighting.
Rock climbing and fighting were the best ways to cheer her up, especially when she was in a bad mood.
She did not expect Marcus to have the same hobbies as her.
“I also quite like rock climbing and fighting. When your wound recovers, the two of us can go rock climbing and compete to see who’s better,” Celeste said.
Marcus knew few women would like what he liked. So he asked, “You didn’t say that on purpose to please me, did you?”
‘Winning his favor is usually something that women who like him do. I don’t love him, so why should I deliberately try to please him?‘ Celeste thought.
She said, “You look a little narcissistic. Marcus, I invited you because I like rock climbing. But I won’t force you if you don’t want to.”
‘Who said I don’t want to?‘ With that thought in mind, Marcus said, “I’d like to. When I recover, I’ll go with you. Or if you want to go the other day, I’ll go with you.”
Celeste agreed. The two of them fell into an endless awkwardness. She coughed twice and took out her phone to look at the time. “I don’t think you have anything else to say, so I’ll go home first.”
Celeste was about to leave when Marcus raised his hand and grabbed her wrist again. “Must you leave?”
“Or what?” Celeste asked.
“Stay with me?” Marcus said.
Celeste looked at Marcus. Seeing that he was pulling his tie, she subconsciously said, “I’m not that kind of person.”
“Yes? What?” Marcus was confused.
Celeste endured the embarrassment and repeated, “I said I’m not that casual, so I don’t plan to have sex with you again and again.”
Marcus was stunned as he pulled his tie. ‘Did I say I wanted to have sex with her? I only wanted her to stay. I had never thought of doing anything to her.’
Marcus stared at Celeste, who said such things to him in all seriousness. He smiled and said, “Did I say anything that made you misunderstand that I want to have sex with you?”
“Although you didn’t say it, aren’t you pulling your tie? Aren’t you going to take off your clothes after pulling off your tie?” Celeste asked.
‘I pulled on my tie because it was so tight that it made my neck uncomfortable, not to have sex with her. Marcus thought as he pulled off the tie in his hand and threw it aside, revealing his red neck to Celeste.
Then, he said, “This tie is a little tight, so I pulled it to make myself comfortable, not to take off my clothes and have sex with you.”
At this moment, Celeste felt an unprecedented awkwardness.
Her face turned red, and she said, “Looks like I misunderstood. My brother is still waiting for me at home. I have to go back. Good night.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she stood up and turned to leave without giving Marcus a chance to speak. After a few steps, she suddenly remembered that she hadn’t picked up her phone.
She went back to Marcus and then took her phone under his gaze.
Just as she was about to leave, Marcus suddenly pulled her into his arms. “Well, if you want, I can satisfy you.”
Marcus’s voice was hoarse and seductive. Celeste shuddered. “I… I don’t want to.”
“You’re already reacting. How can you say you don’t want to?” Marcus said.
