The answer was clear as he said it.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" Ye Junli stopped the car and looked at me.
"But... "So?" I heard my voice tremble.
"I've always wanted to ask you a question. Can you give me a clear answer this time?" I looked at Ye Junli and asked uncertainly.
"I know what you want to ask. In fact, I always thought that my intentions were very clear, but I didn't know that you would protect yourself so well, and never wanted to tell me your intentions." Ye Junli's eyes flickered with a light that I couldn't see clearly.
"Ye Junli, do you mean what I thought you said?" I asked, looking at him with a puzzled expression.
Ye Junli forced out a smile and quickly wrapped his arm around the back of my neck. He pulled me close to his chest and deeply kissed my lips before my shocked eyes.
This is the second time I've kissed him. I don't know why, but it feels different from the last time, but this time, I feel like he's still warm and gentle despite his tyranny. I don't know if it's just my imagination, but I feel like even the tip of Ye Junli's tongue is testing me, thinking that this Ye Junli is a stranger to me, yet I am unable to extricate myself from it.
When Ye Junli released me, I still felt like I was in a dream. I closed my eyes, not daring to open them.
"Can you understand now?" Ye Junli looked at me and said.
I mustered the courage to open my eyes and saw Ye Junli's handsome face in front of me. I immediately blushed and lowered my head, unsure of what to say.
"Zhou Xiang, you can resign tomorrow." Ye Junli touched my head with his hand, his fingers stroking my lips as he spoke in a deep voice.
I looked into his eyes and nodded. For some reason, it was just an ordinary kiss, but I felt as though I had given my entire heart and soul to Ye Junli.
I always felt that I had a strong sense of wariness when facing outsiders, and I was the same with Ye Junli before. But now, because of a few short words from him, I completely let go of my wariness towards him.
Ye Junli looked at me gently with a faint smile. I almost felt that the person in front of me wasn't Ye Junli, so why would the Ye Junli I knew reveal such an expression?
"Zhou Xiang, I won't harm you." Ye Junli seemed as though he wanted to prove something, so he added.
I lowered my head and smiled. I know that from this moment onwards, my addiction towards Ye Junli will never subside.
Ye Junli released me from the car and walked around the front of the car to open the door for me. I raised my head and looked at him suspiciously. Under his gentle gaze, I caught his hand and got off the car.
This is the first time I can remember holding hands with Ye Junli. Both of us have experienced many hardships, but now it seems like we are a pair of young lovers who just experienced their first love. This feeling makes me feel very happy.
I was holding his hand when we entered the house. I don't know why, but it was probably because my relationship with him had taken a qualitative leap that made me feel a strong sense of humanity when I looked at this house that normally felt so empty and devoid of humanity.
For the first time, I began to feel that this place could be called home.
The two of us were like two little kids, and we couldn't bear to let go of each other. At this moment, I felt that even though Ye Junli had slowed down to a lot of girls, he had never given his heart up.
I don't know why, but Ye Junli's rough performance actually made me feel very warm. At least at this moment, I still feel that the two of us will have a chance of reaching the end together.
"Zhou Xiang," Ye Junli called out my name. "Do you know what attracts me the most?"
I stared at him, not knowing what he was going to say.
"You are always wary of others, but you unconsciously trust others. Do you know how surprising it is for you to pretend to be cold and defenseless?" Ye Junli pushed me onto the sofa and stroked my hair.
I looked at his beautiful peach blossom eyes and laughed involuntarily.
I put a hand on his shoulder to stop him from coming closer. "Do you know what I like about you?"
Ye Junli was stunned for a moment, then blankly shook his head.
I tugged at his collar, leaned over and tapped him on the lips, then felt my cheeks burn. I carefully avoided his gaze and lowered my head. "Actually, there's no reason at all for me to fall in love with someone. Ever since the first time you saved me from Hei Baozi's hands in the Demon Area, I knew that I definitely wouldn't forget you."
Ye Junli's eyes gradually darkened. He quickly pounced towards me, pressing me down beneath him. I could even feel the heat of his body and the heat of his breath.
I looked up at his burning eyes, which shone with a lot of light I couldn't make out, but now I seemed to understand.
"Zhou Xiang," he bit my earlobe and said unclearly, "Actually, I had a deep impression of you from that time onwards. Otherwise, when you found me, I wouldn't have been so willing to cooperate with you."
There was a momentary blankness in my mind, and I was about to ask him when he kissed me hard.
His palms, his body temperature, his breathing, his eyes, everything was filled with a scorching heat. I was almost scalded by his heat.
I was hugged tight by him, and then I felt him gallop over me. The two of us have experienced it many times, but this time, it's definitely the most suitable for both of us.
I have waited for such a long time for the day where I can connect up with Ye Junli.
