Chapter 50 - Friends!

"A-anyway… why did you come?" She asked, trying to change the topic.

"The only way to meet you again is by picking you up from your place since we weren't able to exchange contacts." He glanced at the car's window and when he saw that they were finally out of her place's vicinity, he looked at her and smiled as he asked, "can I kiss you now?"

She was happy to see him in front of her since she has been thinking of him lately. She suddenly recalled the question he asked that night.

"How do you want your first to be?"

Unforgettable. That was her answer. The only reason why it was unforgettable was because it was him. It was not the sex but the person who did it. He really gave her an exceptional night. Who would have thought that this handsome stranger would end up making her feel more about him?

She smiled inwardly as she suddenly remembered something. They were 17 years apart, not 16. She pulled back her hand from him and instead, she wrapped her arms around him. With a wide smile, she exclaimed, "happy birthday, daddy!" She leaned forward for a kiss.

Yong Liwei wasn't surprised because of the kiss but because of what she said. He never thought that he would hear her greet him. He sat still, dumbfounded until Lu Mengjie leaned back after giving him a sweet kiss. The smile on her lips reached her eyes. It was the prettiest smile he had ever seen. Her smile was one of happiness growing, much as a spring flower opens. It melted the snow in his heart. Just seeing her that way made the side of his lips curl up, returning the smile she was showing him.

"How did you know?" He asked.

"Of course I'll know. I have a good memory. It's only proper for me to do my homework after recruiting you as my man!"

"Since it's my birthday, what's your gift for me?"

"I already gave it to you. A kiss." She wasn't expecting him to come that day so it she didn't have anything prepared for him.

He raised a brow at her as he replied, "just a kiss?"

"I'm broke. Should I undress and wrap myself with a ribbon instead?"

A laugh was heard from him. The laugh was in his eyes, in the way his face changed into that vision of relaxed joy and unrestrained mirth. "That will be the best gift I'll have my entire life!"

Lu Mengjie ended up staring at him when she saw his handsome laughing face. She could feel her heart pound in her chest. It was thumping loudly. She could also feel strange heat spreading throughout her face. Seeing him laugh like this was dangerous for her heart.

Yong Liwei stopped laughing when he noticed the girl staring so passionately at him. For some reason, he felt his heart jump. He pushed a stray lock of her hair back around her ear as he looked into her eyes. She continued to stare this time into his eyes, they were shimmering like black diamonds.

One moment they were staring into each other's eyes, the next they were kissing. The driver had to close the car's partition when he saw what was happening through the mirror.

Yong Liwei and Lu Mengjie were left in their own world. Kissing him made her dizzy but not like she was falling into darkness. She felt his hand, warm and rough on her nape. His lips were perfect. Soft and warm. She felt safe… and hungrier for him.

The deep, passionate kiss continued. Their tongues dancing with each other inside her mouth. She missed this. She missed how his lips felt against her. She never thought she would end up yearning for a kiss this much.

She was the first to break the kiss just so she could breathe. She was panting after an intense make-out with him. Despite her breathlessness, she couldn't stop her smile from growing.

"Among all the curves in your body, I love your smile the most," he breathed out helplessly.

Blush spread throughout her face yet she couldn't suppress the smile that was wanting to escape her lips. "Are you falling in love with me, Mr. Yong?"

"I wonder…"

She raised a brow at him, an amused smile hanging on her lips. "Just so you know, just because we had sex doesn't mean we're dating."

The smile on his lips soon faded the moment he heard her words, his pupils narrowed as he gazed at her. His chilling stare seemed to pierce on her. If it was someone else, he wouldn't mind. He never liked being in a relationship but for some reason, when it came from her, it hit him differently.

"Then how should our relationship be?" He asked coldly, almost harsh.

As if not affected by this human freezer, her smile spread across her face as she exclaimed, rather enthusiastically, "friends!"
