“If that’s not the case, what are you afraid of?” Lu Yanchen’s gaze was deep like a falcon that was diving right into her heart.

“Who’s afraid of whom? I’ll stay here then! Coincidentally, I’m preparing for war for the Flying Fish Cup these couple of days. Staying at your villa will not only save me time for training, I can even train at night when I’m free,” A house with a pool in it–this was Shi Guang’s dream home.

With that said, she walked in to select a bedroom without standing on courtesy.

There were no guestrooms on the 1st floor, and hence, she took a room on the 2nd floor that was the furthest away from the master bedroom.

When night came, she tried forcing herself to sleep. However, she could not fall into slumber and was just staring at her ceiling with wide opened eyes. It was exceptionally quiet in this villa, so quiet that one’s heart would flutter a little.

Feeling a little thirsty, Shi Guang headed down to find out that there were dim lights on in the living room. Lu Yanchen was seated at the bar counter, sipping on wine while facing his laptop.

With his acute senses, he heard Shi Guang from afar despite her trying her best to tiptoe. Raising his head and spinning around, he retracted his gaze after seeing that it was Shi Guang.

After she came down, he asked softly, “Aren’t you preparing for war? It’s already 12. Why aren’t you asleep?”

“I came down to drink water,” She explained while casually asking in return, “Why aren’t you asleep?”

“Something cropped up…” His gaze was still locked onto his laptop. He then raised his glass. “Pour me a glass of water too.”

“Oh!”

Shi Guang replied softly before going to the kitchen. After she had drunk her glass of water, she went out and placed another glass of water on the bar counter Lu Yanchen was at.

“Thank you!” The man turned around and said. Because she was standing right beside him, his aura was thrown onto her completely–a little musky and hot, clean yet sharp. It was something extremely charming.

Startled, Shi Guang stumbled back almost by instinct.

Forgetting that there was a step behind her, she lost her balance and almost fell over.

Lu Yanchen’s pupils dilated as he reached out to hug her by the waist right away, pulling her back to him with ease. Because of the rebound, she found herself thrust right into his chest.

She heaved out a huge sigh of relief. Upon realizing the situation she was in, she found herself being inexplicably shy. “Thank you. Y-You can let go of… me!”

Lu Yanchen did not loosen his grip. Feeling joyous all of a sudden, he bent over to the same height as her eyes while curling his lips gently. “Your face… Why is it so red?”

“Is it?” Shi Guang touched her face by instinct. Indeed, it was a little hot. Nervous with her heart palpitating, she denied it all, “The weather’s hot. It’s only normal…!”

“Oh, is that so?” Lu Yanchen had intentionally dragged his last word as he observed her curiously for a moment. His deep, dark eyes brought with them an evil look. “You could not have thought that I was going to kiss you… right?”

Shi Guang was taken aback and found herself nearly choking on her saliva.

With her face flushing completely red, she felt a little anger arising from her embarrassment. “N-No…! The weather is clearly hot! L-Look! Your earlobes are turning red too…!”

With her saying that, Lu Yanchen really had an urge to go bite her on the lips. That’d teach her to not spout nonsense.

The entire place was dead silent, with nothing more than the breathing sounds from the two of them.

Their hearts were beating so fast that it was frightening.

Badump!

Badump!

It was almost as though they were about to pop out of their throats.

Shi Guang felt an inexplicable sense of danger rising through her, and her instinct had her struggling. But the moment she made a move, Lu Yanchen suddenly lowered his head and pecked her on the lips gently.

Her body felt as though an electric current had just jolted through it, causing her to break out into a shiver. Stiffening her body, Shi Guang’s eyes widened in shock.

The jet black eyes of the man was staring at her. Leaning in gently once more, he pecked her on the lips again before retreating.

He looked at her once more.

And again, he went in, turning it into a deep kiss…
