Chương 98: Just One Kiss Please

"I'll take that bet!" 

A smirk slowly spread across Sun Jingwei's face. A poetic person would claim that it was like the sunrise over the ocean. Xue Ning was not poetic and found his smile a bit too sleazy to be compared to something as lovely as the sunrise. 

It reminded her of snake oil salesmen, or cats that were stalking canaries for the kill. 

Xue Ning did not like the thought of being eaten.

"Why are you smirking like this? It's greasier than an oil spill. Stop it." Xue Ning said, inching further away from him with eyes narrowed in suspicion. 

Jingwei stood up, but he still didn't stop smirking. Instead, he leaned in even closer just so he could continue staring, the way children did to pretty fishes in aquariums. 

He smiled in amusement at her wary expression, delighting in the way her eyes darted around and refused to meet his own.
