章 148: Chapter 148: In Hot Pursuit

The voice in Chen Enci's mouth vanished in an instant. She looked at the boy's eyebrows and eyes close at hand, as if someone had just hit her on the head with a stick, her mind went completely blank.

The moment Qin Jie's lips touched hers, he realized what he had done impulsively, and his entire body froze, as if struck by an acupuncture point.

The autumn wind rose outside the window, rustling the leaves loudly.

In the room, the two of them were like a painting, static and silent.

After what seemed like an eternity, Qin Jie's Adam's apple bobbed several times. Caught between leaving and continuing, he slowly closed his eyes, cautiously and tremblingly pressing his lips further against hers.

She didn't dodge. He kissed her gently, under the hum of the refrigerator's cooling system. His kiss deepened bit by bit until it eventually became entangled and passionate.

When the refrigerator's freezer hummed for the second time, Qin Jie slowly released Chen Enci's lips.
