"I know." My face was very close to Bai Jing's, and his breath landed evenly on my face. It was very soft, as if a feather had just brushed across my face, soft and numb.
This feeling was very strange. I uncomfortably moved my face, wanting to raise my hand to scratch my cheek. However, just as I lifted my hand, I was controlled by Bai Jing's other hand.
"What are you doing?" I looked doubtfully at Bai Jing.
"So you, you want to become his concubine?" Bai Jing's eyes were still staring at me. His eyes were filled with emotions that I couldn't understand.
He seemed to be enduring something, constantly restraining himself. At the same time, it also seemed like there was a flame burning in his eyes.
"What do you mean what do you mean? I don't have the mood to share a husband with others. Fighting for a man in a courtyard with a high wall all day is too boring." I was amused by Bai Jing's words. How could he ask such a question?
"Really." Bai Jing's eyes wavered, filled with uncertainty.
"A puppy that lied to you." I said seriously.
Bai Jing didn't say anything but just looked at me. I felt goosebumps all over my body from his gaze, "Can you let go of me first? You're too strong, my wrist is hurting." I said carefully.
Bai Jing released me upon hearing my words. I hurriedly stretched my wrist and neck before touching the back of my head and gently massaging it.
"But what if the Emperor forces you in the future?" Bai Jing asked again, not taking his eyes off me.
"How can that be? I won't marry him, if he dares to force me, then he must be able to defeat me. Besides, I won't stay here forever, sooner or later I will have to leave. Maybe before he wants me, I will already be back." I said slowly, rubbing the back of my head.
I'm not worried about that. Besides, if the emperor really likes me that much, other than him liking my beauty, I can't figure out how I attracted him to be so persistent with me. After this freshness, he will no longer remember who I am. I am not worried at all that he will force me to enter the palace in the future.
"You have to go." Bai Jing's expression changed as if he had heard the bad news.
"Mm, like I said, I'm not from here. If my mission is accomplished, then I have no reason to stay here anymore."
"What mission." Bai Jing's eyes were filled with doubt.
"I'll watch over you and not let anything happen to you." I smiled and bent my head, smiling at Bai Jing. I wanted to tease him to see how he would behave.
In the end, a trace of light flashed across Bai Jing's eyes. After that, Bai Jing's adam's apple moved and I felt the back of my head being pressed down by him again.
Bai Jing directly brought me into his embrace. Due to my unstable center of gravity, I threw myself onto him. Luckily, Bai Jing was quite calm so I didn't knock him over. Bai Jing caught me steadily.
"You." I was about to say what you were doing when Bai Jing's face grew so big in front of my eyes, and then his lips fell on mine.
Bai Jing's eyes were closed. No one knew what he was thinking, but his lips were very thin. They were moving around my lips, sketching out the shape of my lips little by little.
I was a little dazed by him. It was like all the blood had flowed into my brain, so dazed that I had forgotten to think and didn't know how to react.
"Close your eyes." Bai Jing opened his eyes. His voice was very soft, but he only slightly left my lips. I forgot to think for a moment, so I closed my eyes as he said.
Bai Jing laughed, very softly, but I could feel his breath on the tip of my nose, and then Bai Jing's lips came close again, and what I felt was a warmth on my lips.
Bai Jing kissed me softly and very slowly. He began to feel unsatisfied with the light tasting outside, and I felt that he was prying open my teeth. My brain felt like it was being deprived of oxygen and I forgot to breathe.
Bai Jing easily pried open my lips and continued to kiss gently. The more tired I was, the harder it was for me to breathe. Finally, I forcefully pushed Bai Jing away.
Bai Jing should have also realized my situation and let me go. I greedily absorbed the air, just like a fish that had run aground.
"Can't you breathe through your nose?" Bai Jing looked at me with a playful smile.
"No, Bai Jing, your kissing skill is so good. Have you experienced it before?" My eyes darkened. Could it be that Bai Jing already had someone here before I arrived?
"No, I only kissed you." Bai Jing didn't look embarrassed at all as he calmly said this. His eyes had already regained their clarity.
"Then why are you so powerful? I can't even breathe. You are quite skilled." I already believed Bai Jing's words, but I still wanted to tease him.
"I know what I'm doing without a teacher. After all, I have a brain." Bai Jing smiled. His smile was very charming, especially since his eyes had regained their clarity. However, his face was still flushed, making him look extremely charming.
I swallowed. "You say no one has a brain." "No," I retorted.
"It's fine, as long as one of us has brains." Bai Jing smiled again and pulled me into his arms.
"You don't have a fever. It's abnormal." Startled by Bai Jing's actions, I quickly touched his forehead.
"Nope." I looked doubtfully at Bai Jing, "You must have been possessed." I asked again.
"Will you leave me?" Bai Jing took my hand off his head and held it in his palm. I could feel a chill coming from the tips of his fingers, and his body temperature was still so low.
"Why do you ask?" I'm surprised.
I've been trying not to pay attention to you, but I failed. When you went missing today, I felt an unprecedented panic, and only then did I realize how important you are in my heart. When you said you had to leave, that strong sense of loss once again welled up in my heart. Bai Jing looked at me with a serious expression.
I was stunned for a moment. Heavens, he was confessing to me! I was a little confused, but I was still not used to Bai Jing suddenly confessing to me so emotionally.
"So, Xing'er, can you stay behind for my sake? Don't leave me." Bai Jing straightened my body so that I could face him face to face, my eyes filled with anticipation.
"Wait a moment, I need to slow down." I shook my head and pinched my cheeks to make sure I wasn't dreaming.
