Chapter 233: What if......
Yu Chen was so engrossed in her newfound toy, standing near Xia's desk, that she did not hear Si Xia entering.
She only felt his presence when he wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her crook of the neck.
A shiver of pleasure ran down Chen's spine as Xia's lips touched her neck and he murmured, "Did you like your gift?" His breath tickling Yu Chen.
Chen smiled as she put the tablet back on the desk, turned around and wrapped her hands around his neck, pecking his lips before saying, "My gift?"
Si Xia nodded as he stared into her eyes. Yu Chen tilted her head a little to the left, she did not understand.
"I got you this as a belated new year's gift. Do you like it?" While he said this, Xia's eyes not once left Chen. Yu Chen's face fell, You didn't have to do that."
Si Xia furrowed his brows, "And why is that?"
Yu Chen looked a little guilty as she broke off the staring contest and looked down, "I didn't get you anything."
Si Xia chuckled, "Your thought process amazes me. Why do you think you have to give me something in return if I give you a gift?"
Yu Chen mumbled, her voice like a small child afraid of scolding, "I don't have to, but I want to."
Si Xia's face brightened up like the morning sun as he said, "What will you give me?"
Yu Chen: "Anything."
Si Xia gave a half smirk as he put one finger under Chen's chin and lifted her head so that their eyes met, "Anything?"
Seeing his burning eyes, Yu Chen could guess what was going on in his mind. She blushed scarlet, but stared deep into Xia's eyes and nodded. Si Xia's deep black eyes, if possible, darkened further. His voice was husky when he said, "You promised." Before placing his lips softly over Chen's.
The kiss started out as a gentle brush again Chen's lips. But even then, her whole body reacted to it. Her heart started pounding and her blood began boiling. Chen's breathing became irregular as she returned the kiss with passion.
Soon the gentle brush evaporated and the kiss turned into a storm, taking Chen's breath away and leaving her gasping. Si Xia let go of her lips and touched his forehead to her's.
They stood there for a long time, panting, listening to each other's heart pounding. Yu Chen smiled, seems like Si Xia was as riled up by the kiss as she was.
Si Xia's eyes flickered for a second to her lips before it returned to her eyes.
He said, his voice almost like a growl, "You're wearing lipstick today."
Yu Chen was a little embarrassed, "You don't like it?"
Si Xia: "It doesn't taste as good as your lips."
Yu Chen was so embarrassed upon hearing this that she wanted to dig up a hole and hide into it. She wanted to look away, but Si Xia's gaze held her, not letting her look away.
Abruptly, all signs of teasing evaporated from Xia's face and it turned serious. He said, "Tell me something, Chen."
"Hmm?" Yu Chen asked, placing her hands on his shoulders, still not leaving the gaze.
"If someday I did something unforgivable, would you still love me?" His voice seemed to be pleading when he asked this.
