To the Love of My Life

Chapter 676: Chapter 676: Qingqing, I Like You (6)
 

Steve Burton stared straight at Ruby Gregory, maintaining the posture of being pulled into the room by her, without moving.

Ruby, with a slight sense of helplessness, dragged Steve to the sofa, pushed him down to sit, and then went to the kitchen.

Ruby was pregnant, so she couldn’t eat watermelon and therefore couldn’t make watermelon juice. After searching the fridge for a while, she found the yogurt that the babysitter had bought for her, took a bottle, put it on the coffee table in front of Steve, and helped him insert the straw, saying to him, “Drink the yogurt.”

Then she went to the bathroom, took a towel, soaked it in cold water, and wrung it out before coming out.

Ruby saw that Steve hadn’t touched the yogurt on the coffee table. She reluctantly bent down, picked up the yogurt bottle, and shoved it directly into his hand: “It’s to help with the hangover. It’ll make you feel better.”

Steve held the yogurt bottle, still unresponsive, his eyes fixed on Ruby.

Ruby folded the towel, reached over, and was about to wipe Steve’s face when he suddenly stood up, holding the yogurt, and bolted toward the bathroom.

Since Ruby was pregnant, she couldn’t walk quickly. By the time she reached the bathroom doorway, she heard vomiting sounds inside.

She hurriedly put the wet towel on a nearby clothes rack, went to fetch a glass of water, entered the bathroom, and handed it to Steve, who had almost finished vomiting: “How much did you drink?”

Steve didn’t answer, took the glass, and rinsed his mouth.

Ruby put the glass on the washstand, picked up the towel she had just washed in cold water, found it no longer cold, and turned on the faucet to rinse the towel again in cold water: “Did you have any engagements today? Why did you drink so much?”

After asking the question, Ruby wrung the towel dry and handed it to Steve: “Wipe your face and sober up, okay?”

Steve didn’t reach out to take it, and Ruby frowned, looking at the unresponsive him, couldn’t help but be worried: “Is there something really wrong with you? Do you need me to call a doctor?”

As Steve gazed at Ruby, who kept asking him questions, he couldn’t tell if he was hallucinating from the alcohol or if this was reality. He swallowed, and then said the words he had rehearsed in his dreams and fantasies, in a low, deep voice: “Ruby, I like you.”

Steve’s words came without warning, and Ruby was stunned as if someone had hit her pressure points. Her eyes widened as she stared at him.

In his dreams, Steve saw Ruby many times, but her face had never been as clear as it was now. He said the words to her for the first time and then repeated them a second time, his tone smoother and his speech clearer: “Ruby, I like you.”

Ruby’s heart raced faster as she still hadn’t reacted. Suddenly, Steve reached out and violently pulled her into his embrace, lowered his head, and fiercely pressed his lips against hers.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Steve’s kiss was intense and domineering, his alcohol-laced tongue twining with hers with all its might, sweeping every inch of her mouth.

His kisses grew deeper, more passionate.

Only when Ruby felt like she was running out of oxygen did Steve finally release her. He then held her tightly and lowered his head, burying it in the crook of her neck: “Ruby, I like you. I have liked you for more than twenty years.”
