Bab 233: Don't Breathe

I stared at him speechlessly. This shameless man … He was checking my teeth just like that! But surprisingly, I didn't find the rising whispers from the crowd as embarrassing as I thought they'd be. On the contrary, I felt … a little thrilled at his bold declaration of love …

Heavens, he was such a bad influence. I probably should've given him another glare, but instead, I glanced around, and when I made sure that the earlier attention he had attracted was no longer focused on us, I tiptoed and returned a peck at the corner of his lips. Then, without daring to look at the expression on his face, I lowered my head and quickened my steps to dash away from the people near us. "We should get window decorations now that we have door couplets," I said, hastily changing the subject.

His low chuckles rang behind me as we pushed our way through the crowd.
