Chapter 192
Lila couldn't believe what she was hearing.
So this was how you talk about "building feelings"?
Shouldn't building feelings happen naturally between two people living together, gradually getting to know each other and developing emotions over time?
Alexander really kept blowing her mind again and again.
Although she was cursing him out in her head, since she was living with him now, she had no choice but to do as he said and obediently walked over.
After stopping in front of Alexander, she asked, "Boss, how do you want to build feelings?"
Alexander leaned back on the sofa and said seriously, "To keep you from getting too bored living here with me, from now on we'll kiss and hug every day. Kiss when leaving in the morning, hug when coming home at night."
Lila thought this was completely unnecessary!
Lila looked at him with a shocked expression, "That doesn't seem right, does it?"
"What's not right about it?"
"It just feels really awkward. Don't you think so?"
He stared at her face full of resistance and her posture ready to retreat at any moment, and his lips curved slightly, "Come here."
"I'm already here."
"Closer. Come stand next to me."
Lila felt like if she got any closer, something was going to happen.
Is it really okay to say everything so clearly?
She could tell that Alexander really wanted to build feelings with her.
People who didn't know better would think he really liked her.
But she knew his purpose for building feelings was just to have a child, nothing to do with liking her.
While Lila's thoughts were drifting, he had already urged impatiently, "What are you dawdling for?"
"Boss, I need to use the bathroom."
Alexander felt a bit helpless.
He frowned at her, "Really or are you making it up?"
"Really, or do you want to follow me to the bathroom door and see?"
"Get lost."
Lila was actually caught off guard by Alexander's rudeness.
As she stood there speechless, Alexander added, "I'll wait for you in the living room. Come right back when you're done."
She added, "I'll need a long time."
Hearing this, Alexander laughed instead of getting angry.
Lila knew from his expression that nothing good was coming.
Sure enough, he slowly got up from the sofa and said elegantly, "Fine, I'll go to the study to handle some work. After you shower tonight, come find me."
Lila felt things were taking a very bad turn.
After showering, she'd definitely be wearing pajamas.
If they were going to hug, wouldn't that be too intimate?
She was really afraid that while building feelings, they might accidentally take things a step further.
At that point, there'd be no way to back out.
Lila looked at Alexander and changed her tune with a smile, "Boss, I think I was hallucinating just now. I don't want to go to the bathroom anymore. Let's build feelings first, and I'll shower and go to bed after."
He raised an eyebrow slightly, "You sure?"
She nodded hard, "I'm sure."
Alexander was unusually agreeable and sat back down on the sofa.
Lila had just breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him pat his thigh twice and look at her, "Sit."
Lila's eyes went wide immediately.
No way?
He wanted her to sit on his lap?
Lila instantly felt her legs go weak.
She waved her hands and carefully refused, "Boss, that's not necessary. You can just stand up and we'll hug. Didn't you say I was fat before? I think I'm pretty heavy too. I'm afraid if I sit on your lap I'll hurt your legs, and then I'd feel guilty."
"Cut the crap."
Alexander impatiently interrupted her, his eyes filled with domineering authority, "I told you to sit."
