Chapter 427 Please Stay With Me Longer

Li Caiyi felt hot inside the room even with the air conditioner turned on. She couldn't pry her eyes off Dai Zhiqiang, and her whole body trembled under his touch.

Dai Zhiqiang loved it when she gazed at him like this. There were no words, but he almost could hear her calling from him through those eyes filled with stars. Beckoning him to get closer and caressed her more.

Li Caiyi's eyelashes fluttered above her glazed eyes. Her porcelain white skin was tinted with a pretty crimson color.

He could hear her breathing sound from how close they were, and the way she latched onto him with his clothes always made his heart soar as if she was unwilling to get separated from him.

Although he said those things, in reality, Dai Zhiqiang was very nervous. He thought Li Caiyi would push him away and scolded him for teasing her again with a blushing face like usual. However, she did not attempt that, and it flustered him instead. His plan had backfired.

Dai Zhiqiang wanted nothing but to push her down on the bed behind her. Even being close to her like this already made his head fuzzy. He probably couldn't keep his rationality if he kissed her now.

'I really shouldn't have come here, after all. This place is too dangerous.' Dai Zhiqiang lamented inwardly.

Suppressing the fire inside him, Dai Zhiqiang broke eye contact first by looking away. He stood up abruptly and pretended to be busy checking his phone.

"I think it's about time I return. I will call you again tonight."

"You are leaving?" Li Caiyi asked in a daze as she stood up too. Her hand tugged on the hem of his clothes, like a child asking their parents to pay attention to them.

Dai Zhiqiang gulped nervously. "Yeah. I should go now."

Li Caiyi bit her lips. 20 minutes were too short for her. She wanted to be with him longer and closer.

"Do you really have to go now? Can't you stay longer?"

Dai Zhiqiang's heart skipped a beat. He had never seen Li Caiyi like this. She looked desperate and frustrated. This other side of her was so sweet and endearing that he wanted to pinch and bite her cheek.

'No, I shouldn't stay here. I will get out of control if I entertain this greed of mine,' Dai Zhiqiang berated himself inwardly.

Li Caiyi saw his conflicted look and found her chance. She pulled Dai Zhiqiang towards her, catching both of them off guard. The latter was surprised because he didn't see that coming. At the same time, the former was astonished because she exerted more force than she intended to. Now Dai Zhiqiang was falling on her.

He reflexively tried to change the angle of his fall but doing that made both of them topple on the bed, with him pressing down on her. They couldn't utter a word for a few seconds and only stared at each other with widened eyes.

"S-sorry. I didn't mean to pull you so strongly." Li Caiyi stammered in panic. Her heartbeat was so loud she was afraid he could hear it.

Dai Zhiqiang had his hands on both sides of her head. He almost straddled her with one of his legs on the bed and the other still rooted on the floor.

This position was so dangerous yet enabled him to have a delicious view of her. He didn't want to move away.

His eyes narrowed dangerously as he played with her hair sprawled across the white sheet. The contrast between the black hair and white sheet and the redness of his slightly gaping lips increased the visual impact, making her look alluring.

"I hope that was the case." Dai Zhiqiang said hoarsely. "If it was an invitation for me, I'm not confident I have enough willpower to resist it."

Of course, Li Caiyi understood well what he meant by 'invitation'. She blushed hard, even to the tip of her ears and neck. Her whole body trembled in nervousness, and she felt like she could die from embarrassment. Nevertheless, there was a part of her that secretly enjoyed this situation.

'That's right. I don't have to be so careful. This situation is normal for lovers. We are both in love, and wanting to get closer to our significant other is natural.'

Li Caiyi steeled her resolve and warped his arms around his neck. His eyes immediately bulged out in surprise, which was a bit funny.

"Now that I think about it again, I may not be as pure as you imagine me to be."

Li Caiyi felt his body become rigid, and she liked how he couldn't see or hear anything but her. His whole attention was on her, and it increased her confidence.

"Please stay with me longer, Zhi. I miss you so much and want you to touch me more."

Dai Zhiqiang's brain couldn't keep up with what had just happened. He didn't know that words could be so lethal.

If Li Caiyi didn't nudge him, he probably would die because he forgot to breathe for a while.

"Are you okay?" She asked worriedly.

"Caiyi, what did you say just now?"

"I said I wanted you to stay with me longer."

"No, after that."

"I miss you and want you to touch me more." Li Caiyi blushed harder as she said it. She was in an adrenaline rush when she said it for the first time. Declaring it twice made her realize how embarrassing that was.

Dai Zhiqiang shook his head. "Not that. I mean the one before that."

Li Caiyi looked at him in confusion. She didn't seem to fake it, so he doubted if what he heard just now was just his wishful thinking.

"You called me Zhi just now."

"Oh!" Li Caiyi finally noticed what he meant and covered her face with her hands. "It just naturally comes out. Talking with your father made his habit rub on me. Sorry."

"I never said I didn't like it. Don't hide. Show me your face." Dai Zhiqiang felt light-headed. He gently pried her hands, and the expression she made behind that cover was enough to make him fall for her again.

She was so beautiful; it hurt his heart.

"Yi Yi, can you call me Zhi again?"
