Softly caressing his cheek, Chen Jingyun treated him like fine china. Afraid to break him even if he was sturdy. However, the words coming out of her mouth were quite flirty. Gentle yet a little daring in nature. They showed her interest and her playful edge.
Looking up with a smile, Chen Jingyun gazed into his eyes. There was a twinkle in her eyes as she spoke her words.
"Have we met before, handsome?" Her voice was light.
As his response, Chen Jingyun only watched him arch his eyebrow, confident, and calm. He was highly composed even if his posture was relaxed. There was no reason for him to be nervous nor panic. It was like the situation was under control.
And as always, he was like the night sky. Dark with hints of blue and purple, fluffy grey clouds, and a white moon.
He was quiet, unmoving, and peaceful, yet he was also delightful, enthralling, and beautiful.
"What do you think?" She heard his low voice.
Tilting her head, Chen Jingyun raised her other hand to caress both of his cheeks, holding his face in her hands.
Precious.
Just like she imagined, they were a little bit plumb. Soft to the touch. However, his strong and defined facial features won them. She could feel the little hollow on his cheeks, his high cheekbones, and his sharp jaw.
And his eyes...
They were lowered as they looked back at her, his long lashes casting a beautiful shadow over them. They were the roof to his dark obsidian orbs. Those black orbs were completely black yet somehow... there was a light in them.
A light that was so unique and enchanting. One that she hasn't seen in anybody else.
A tiny smile formed on her face as she looked at him. It was soft, gentle, and carried a sense of contentedness.
"Whether you remember me or not, it doesn't matter. What matters now is that I already found you."
It was a confession!
Muffling their shrieks, Luo Shao and Su Long held onto each other as they watched the drama unfold before them. The popcorn bowl was already empty! And it has only been a minute since they brought it out...
Seeing such scenes, the two of them didn't know what to think. They never expected the little guy to turn into such a romantic after drinking a couple of drinks.
What more, they didn't expect him to be so bold as to make a move on the dark lord!
Look! She had his hands on the dark lord's face!
How did she do that? How did she still have her hands? Didn't she know the saying 'never tickle a sleeping dragon'?
If they were the ones in her place, they would immediately get up and run!
...Well, it was true that the dark lord had yet to make a move against her.
What was he thinking?
Either way, whatever happens, Luo Shao and Su Long were already hooked to the storyline.
Contrary to them, Li Minghao still held his calm after hearing such sweet words. Inside of his mind, a flash of surprise appeared, but he lightly shook those feelings away. He was still a calm ocean wave.
He perfectly remembered what happened the other day, right here, at the same table. The day he had asked her if she was into girls, and she had strongly denied it. Only for her to turn around and said she was crazy for them.
The exact opposite of what she had stated.
What is it then?
"And what are you going to do?" Li Minghao tested her one last time. The mood turning ambiguous.
He might have been playing with fire, but somehow he didn't mind getting burn.
Hearing those words, something in Chen Jingyun's mind flickered. Her eyes momentarily fell on the sight of his lips. They were of a rose color, soft, and inviting.
She had never done it before, but somehow she felt compelled to do it.
Something pulled her in, and she wasn't able to get out.
Whether it was the high attraction she felt for this young man, or her clouded senses and her lack of better judgment, she was already enchanted to the point of no return.
Locking eyes with him, her eyes full of meaning locked him in his position. A strange feeling washed over him as she looked back at her.
"What are you doing?" He asked only for a finger softly press against his lips, quietening him down.
Hush.
And the world slowed down.
Slowly, her hands fell from his face and onto his shoulders, leaving her trace of warmth. Her heart was beating fast. She then connected her arms behind his neck, locking eyes with him, and bringing herself closer and closer to him. Until she was only inches away from his lips.
Everyone in the room held their breath as the scene unfolded.
