Chapter 142 - I don’t want you to feel disgusted because of the kiss

Feng Jianyu leaned down and slammed his lips to hers without any warning. The moment their warm lips touched, Xiu Mei's eyes widened in shock as she tightly clenched his shirt. This was the most unexpected thing in the name of a response.

His hand cupped her face below the year, his thumb caressing her soft red cheeks like coaxing a kitten as their breaths mingled.

He tried to be as gentle as possible to make her first kiss memorable instead of scary. After all, he doesn't want to frighten her.

Xiu Mei didn't know what happened but her shoulders scrunched in and her whole body stiffened by the fear of strange sensations. Her defense mechanism kicked in and her lips clamped tightly together.

But soon she realized some stray feelings when he pressed his tongue at the seam of her lips to grant access inside her personal space. She snapped out from her thoughts and finally shoved him away from her.

The air rushes from her chest, making her feel weak from the kiss as she tries to calm down her frantic heart. Their eyes met for a split second but she averted her gaze inadvertently from Feng Jianyu's face.

Biting her lips she looked down and fidgets with her hands. Her face, cherry red because of the brief kiss they have shared.

Feng Jianyu got scared by her sudden change in behavior. He decided that he'd better address the issue that bothered her so much before it creates any more problems.

"Mei, did I shock you with that kiss?" he asked cautiously.

Xiu Mei shook her head like a rattle drum. But the next moment He answered his own question, "I suppose I did."

He held her tight to his chest and rubbed her back gently, "It's alright; just relax. If you're not comfortable I won't do it. " A frown appeared, when he realized she is shivering despite her body is warm.

Hiding her face in his chest she answered her dilemma, "No… A- Actually problem is with me. I don't want you to feel disgusted because of the kiss"

Feng Jianyu "…." 'Disgusted? I'm dying to kiss those luscious lips passionately'

"And what makes you feel that I'd be disgusted by the kiss," he asked with raised brows and Xiu Mei answered meekly.

"Because I puked a while back. My mouth must be stinking right now. I'd feel bad if you cringe on my face" Feng Jianyu laughed loudly at her stupid reasoning. He felt her very adorable at that time.

Hearing his laughter she blushed and hides her face in his chest.

"Ah! My cute chipmunk! You scared me for a while." He teased her to lighten the atmosphere, "Hey, let me taste your mouth to find out if it's true or not"

"ewwww…." Protested Xiu Mei, and hits him lightly on the chest.

Feng Jianyu chuckles and kissed the top of her head before hugging her more tightly as he smells her fruity fragrance. He asked, "Jokes apart! Why did you puke? Are you not feeling well?" He looked down at her in surprise when Xiu Mei's hold around him tightened.

"Mei… What's wrong?"

"I puked when I-I saw that v-video… bloody video"

With a soft voice he rubbed her back to relax her tense muscles, he asked, "Which video?"

After a few seconds, she answered, "Seven year back video, when paramedics flew down your injured body to the hospital in Country Y. Dr. Wang's h-hand was inside your c-chest to...…" Her hands unconsciously reached for the right side of his chest as she caressed him lightly.

"Shh…I got it…. I got it… Calm down! I'm fine now. See, nothing is wrong with me" Said Feng Jianyu as he patted her head. But he asked surprisingly, "Mei, but we deleted all those videos long back. So how did you....??"

"C'mon, retrieving an old video is a child's play. Change your IT experts, they are a bunch of idiots" Feng Jianyu was amused by her comment.

"Feng Jianyu, but your injury…"

He interrupted her, "Mei, don't underestimate my elder brother's capabilities. No matter how annoying he is but Wang Shi's skills are top notch. It didn't take him much effort to save me. Ok?"

Xiu Mei knew he is lying. Unknown to him, she already knows what they have discussed in the library. But she remained silent and nodded in response.

"I'll call Wang Shi to examine you" As Feng Jianyu was about to press the intercom button, Xiu Mei stopped him, holding his arm. "I'm fine. Please don't call a third person here, as I'm not done talking to you" she scowled.

He took her hand and kissed her palm before saying, "I'll patiently hear you out. But for now, your health is more important to me. Do you think you are smart enough to hide your fever from me?"
