Chapter 60

Anyway, she had already come to terms with the fact that she couldn’t outtalk him, but she could at least give him a pinch. 

However, when she felt the muscles under her hand suddenly tighten, Lu Jiu realized something wasn’t right. 

So… did she just pinch her boyfriend’s waist? 

But when did her hand slip inside his jacket? 

Unable to figure it out, Lu Jiu slightly pushed herself away, intending to take a closer look… 

“Don’t move,” Wei Shian’s hoarse and restrained voice sounded in her ear. No man in the world can remain a gentleman in front of the woman he loves. Heaven knows how hard he’s been holding back because he cherishes her so much. 

The deep tone of his voice made her uneasy, and Lu Jiu’s heart suddenly started pounding wildly. Not wanting him to notice, she instinctively tried to pull away. 

“Hiss… Don’t move… If you do, I’ll kiss you.” 

Chapter 30 

Kiss…? 

Lu Jiu’s breath hitched. 

Inappropriately, she suddenly remembered what Jingjing had once said. 

When she got a boyfriend, she should definitely kiss him until he’s dazed. 

Kiss Wei Shian until he’s dazed? Should she be the one to take the initiative? 

No, no, no, Lu Jiu shook her head frantically in her mind. 

Just thinking about it made her so nervous she could hardly breathe, her heart pounding like crazy. 

Just like now: thump thump… thump thump… 

Lu Jiu could clearly hear the sound of her heartbeat, rhythmically pounding against her chest. 

As she started to wonder if her heart might actually jump out of her chest, another, even more muffled heartbeat joined in. 

Lu Jiu froze for a moment, then quickly realized it was Wei Shian’s. 

So… he’s not as composed as he seems? 

This realization made Lu Jiu relax a bit, but it also sparked her curiosity about how her boyfriend looked at this moment. 

So, she quietly retreated (or so she thought) and tilted her head up to take a look. 

Wei Shian had been keeping his eyes downcast, but in that instant, their gazes locked. 

The… intense emotions in his eyes, which even the twilight couldn’t conceal, were suddenly exposed. 

Lu Jiu’s pupils shrank, and her hand unconsciously tightened on his jacket. 

“…Peony.” Without feeling any rejection from her, and not expecting her to suddenly look up, Wei Shian’s Adam’s apple bobbed as his large hand on her slim waist tightened, the veins bulging as he struggled to control his strength. 

Then, as if bewitched, he slowly bent down… 

“Young people these days…” 

Just as he was about to touch the lips he had longed for day and night, an elderly voice suddenly broke the moment. 

Wei Shian’s body stiffened, and then he quickly raised a hand, shielding his equally stiff girlfriend, and strode away. 

His steps were fast and urgent, making it hard for Lu Jiu to keep up. 

Just as she was about to ask where they were going, she suddenly felt her body lift. 

She let out a low gasp, instinctively reaching out to grab onto something for balance. 

Once she steadied herself and came to her senses, Lu Jiu realized she was being carried by her boyfriend—in the same way one would carry a child. 

The heat and strength radiating from where they touched made Lu Jiu feel like she was on fire. She raised her hand to lightly hit the man, scolding him softly, “What are you doing? Put me down.” 

“Not a chance.” Wei Shian released one hand to catch the little fist she aimed at him, brought it to his lips for a kiss, and continued to weave through the park. 

Surprised that he dared to carry her with one hand, Lu Jiu immediately stopped struggling, worrying about falling. She even wrapped her arms around his broad shoulders and was about to ask another question when she realized that he had already stopped. 

“We’re here.” 

What… “Mmm—” 

The park was lush with trees and dotted with artificial hills. 

Wei Shian carried her behind one of the artificial hills, away from any prying eyes, not wanting anyone to interrupt them again. 

One hand secured on her slender waist and the other gently cupping her face, he leaned down and captured her soft, full lips. 

Sweet, tender. 

The moment they touched, Wei Shian felt a shiver down his spine, like electricity coursing through his body… Then, losing all sense of reason, he acted purely on instinct. 

Lu Jiu had often fantasized about kissing the one she loved and wondered what it would feel like. 

But she never knew that, when the moment actually came, she would feel as though she were boiling over. 

He kissed her deeply, urgently… and greedily. 

The hot breath brushing against her face made her flush redder. As he pried open her lips, the air between them became even more scorching… 

Lu Jiu couldn’t tell how long they had been kissing. 

She only vaguely remembered that, by the end, she was dizzy, her legs felt like jelly, and her breathing had become difficult before he finally let go… 

But Wei Shian didn’t move far away. His large hand, the veins still prominent, possessively remained on her waist, preventing her from escaping, while the other hand gently caressed her lips, swollen and parted as she panted, occasionally bending down to steal another kiss… 

“No… no more.” Having regained her breath, Lu Jiu raised a hand to block his lips as he leaned in again. 

Wei Shian kissed her soft palm instead and, with a hoarse voice, asked, “What’s wrong? Don’t you like it?” 

Who asks a question like that? Lu Jiu bit her lip in discomfort, only to wince from the swollen, stinging sensation and quickly release it. “…It hurts.” 

“Sorry, it was my first time. I don’t have much experience.” Wei Shian swore he had only intended to share a sweet, romantic kiss with his girl, but all his self-control evaporated the moment he touched her soft lips. 

The result of holding back for so long was that he completely lost control. 

He hadn’t expected to kiss her so hard that it hurt. 

With that in mind, he bent down, using the dim light of a distant streetlamp to take a closer look. 

Lu Jiu’s face had been flushed the entire time. Seeing him lean in again, thinking he wanted another kiss, she immediately covered her face with both hands and buried herself in his broad chest, not letting him see her. She mumbled, “It’s fine, it’s just that your stubble hurts.” Actually, her mouth hurt too—it was swollen, and her tongue felt numb—but she was too embarrassed to say that. 

Surprised by the reason, Wei Shian paused before wrapping his arms around her again. He rested his chin on her head, closing his eyes in contentment as he said, “My fault. I’ll be more careful next time.” 

Her response was another little punch.

There’s something magical between couples. 

Before their first kiss, they might still feel a bit awkward.
