Qi Shenbai looked at her flustered movements and his protruding Adam’s apple bobbed unconsciously. He chuckled.
Xu Jiaojiao was in his embrace, so she could not see his expression. She thought that he was mocking her. She struggled to raise her head, wanting to call him a jerk.
Qi Shenbai lowered his head and kissed her. His voice was filled with affection as he said, “You don’t have to pursue me.”
‘I fell before you did.’
Xu Jiaojiao was overwhelmed by his sudden kiss and did not understand what he meant at all. Her mind was in a mess.
“Jiaojiao, shall we start dating?” She had no idea that he had already fallen in love with her before she fell in love with him.
Xu Jiaojiao finally understood what he meant. Her face was filled with shock and disbelief. “D-Do you mean you want to be with me? Burp…”
How annoying!! Why did she have to start burping non-stop at this moment?!
Qi Shenbai found Xu Jiaojiao adorable when she was angry with herself like that. He had the urge to kiss her forehead again. “Yes, let’s be together.”
In his heart, though, they were already together.
Xu Jiaojiao muttered to herself, “So, you like me too…” Because she was too shocked, she had completely forgotten about her embarrassment at her burping non-stop just now.
Qi Shenbai smiled and nodded. “Yes, I like you too.”
‘1 like you a lot more than you think,’ he thought.
Xu Jiaojiao opened her mouth slightly in surprise. “Thank you. Thank you for agreeing to be with me.”
Amused, Qi Shenbai tapped the tip of her nose. “You’re welcome. Are you happy now?”
The corners of Xu Jiaojiao’s lips curled up into a radiant smile. Her eyes were filled with joy, like a child who had just obtained a beloved toy. “Of course I’m happy.”
The next second, she burped again…
“Do you want to be even happier?”
Xu Jiaojiao nodded honestly.
Qi Shenbai cupped her cheeks with both hands and lowered his head to kiss her soft lips again. The gentle kiss gradually turned into something more passionate. The unfamiliar sensation swept the dazed Xu Jiaojiao away.
They kissed and kissed, until Xu Jiaojiao finally fell asleep on Qi Shenbai’s shoulder. Her slightly swollen red lips were charming and alluring. He could not tell what she was dreaming about, but her lips curled up slightly, looking satisfied.
Qi Shenbai glanced sideways at her exquisite facial features. He reached out to tuck her long hair behind her ear and carefully planted a kiss at the corner of her eye.
“Sweet dreams, my sweet girl.”
Xu Zhengyang and Su Luo waited in the private room for a long time, but the other two did not return. They even checked both the ladies’ and gentlemen’s washrooms, but they could not find Qi Shenbai and Xu Jiaojiao.
After learning from the service staff that Qi Shenbai had left with Xu Jiaojiao, Xu Zhengyang could not help but curse under his breath, “F*ck.” He immediately called Xu Jiaojiao, but no one picked up. He called Qi Shenbai too, but he did not pick up either.
Xu Zhengyang scratched his head in frustration, paid the bill, and left. He planned to go to Qingshui Villa to look for his sister. When he turned around, he saw Su Luo, who had finished half a bottle of wine alone, standing at the entrance of the restaurant and looking up at something. Her face was red, and her body was swaying as if she would fall at any moment.
He walked over and grabbed her wrist. “Let’s go. I’ll take you home.”
Su Luo turned to look at him. Her gaze was fleeting as she pulled her wrist out of his hand. “I can go back myself. I don’t need you to send me…”
“What do you think you can do by yourself? Look at how drunk you are!” Xu Zhengyang scolded angrily. “Don’t throw a tantrum here, do you hear me? Hurry up and follow me.”
Su Luo could not break free. She was dragged out of the restaurant and into the elevator. She leaned lazily against the wall and tilted her head to look at him. “You’re so annoying.”
Xu Zhengyang looked at her. “If you say anything else, I’ll throw you into the river.”
Su Luo turned around and saw a bunch of young couples in the mall through the glass behind her. She could not help but sigh. “When will 1 fall in love?” “Anyone who falls for you must’ve sinned terribly in his previous life!”
Su Luo shoved him fiercely. “Xu Zhengyang, why do you keep picking fights with me? Do you have a problem with me?!”
“Look who’s talking.” Xu Zhengyang sneered. “You’re the one who’s been going against me, alright?!”
Su Luo snorted twice and lowered her head. She did not want to keep bickering with him.
After getting into the car, Su Luo turned her head to the side. She looked at the scenery outside the window and did not talk to him. Her eyes were slightly closed, as if she was about to fall asleep.
Xu Zhengyang controlled the steering wheel with one hand and lit a cigarette with his free hand. He took one puff after another, and the car was instantly filled with smoke.
Su Luo turned to look at him and said unhappily, “Can you not smoke in the car?”
“Nope.”
“Then stop the car. I’m getting off here.”
Xu Zhengyang glanced at her coldly and did not say anything. It was obvious that he was ignoring her..
