Yu Na got goosebumps all over in an instant.
She pushed him away, "Where did you learn that?"
"Did you like it?"
"I didn't like it at all!" She looked at him with utter disgust. "That's so lame..."
Xiao Chen was just getting into it: "Lame? I've got another line."
Yu Na thought to herself: Oh my god! I want to scold him but I can't bear to. What is this feeling!
...
When they arrived at Yunwan Mansion, Yu Na didn't see Qiao Rui anywhere and asked in puzzlement: "Isn't Qiao Rui home?"
Xiao Chen: "No, he went out to play."
Yu Na: "Oh? Then how can I tutor him?"
"Alright—" He lazily drew out the tone, acting just like an open-minded parent: "You have to let him balance work and rest, otherwise the learning won't show results."
Yu Na: ?
Although what he said made sense, wasn't it him who proposed weekly tutoring in the first place?
And now he was flip flopping.
Yu Na could only put the review materials on the dining table and turned back to question: "Was this another one of your tricks?"
Xiao Chen calmly answered: "No."
As he spoke, he walked past her and opened the refrigerator to take out a bottle of water.
He twisted the cap open and drank a couple sips.
Yu Na's gaze moved back to his Adam's apple.
The scene of her kissing it last night before getting out of the car flashed uncontrollably in her mind again.
After Xiao Chen twisted the bottle cap back on, he inadvertently met Yu Na's strange gaze.
In an instant, even his ears turned a little red.
His heart thumped wildly as he walked up to Yu Na.
Xiao Chen put his hands around Yu Na, bracing them on the dining table behind her, not exactly hugging her but firmly fencing her in.
Their bodies were pressed close together.
Yu Na could even feel their violently pounding hearts.
She was surrounded by him like this without even room to turn around. All she had to do was raise her head and her forehead would knock into his chin.
Yu Na asked uneasily: "Is Qiao Rui...coming home for lunch?"
"He's not coming back," Xiao Chen said. Then he gently kissed her forehead. In a low, sexy voice, as if reminding her: "Don't worry."
Their hearts thumped loudly.
Yu Na let go of all her shyness and reservations, raised her head, and kissed his chin.
It was like a hint.
Xiao Chen understood and took the initiative to lower his head, grasping her chin to tilt it up. Before she could react, he sealed her lips with his own.
This kiss was clearly more skilled and passionate than yesterday's.
Yu Na took the initiative to lift her hands and drape them over his shoulders, hugging his neck, lightly caressing the nape of his neck.
Xiao Chen also hugged her waist tightly, trying to get her closer, even closer, until she was pressed right up against him, before he was satisfied.
In the entire flat, there wasn't a single extraneous sound, only the ambiguous noises of their kissing.
Since neither had any experience, they seemed a little awkward, but this awkwardness unexpectedly added a spark of allure.
Xiao Chen's breathing grew ragged, his heart hot.
As he kissed her, he swept her up in his arms and headed for the living room sofa.
Yu Na was completely absorbed in the kiss. Caught off guard as her body suddenly lifted off the ground, she reflexively clung to his neck.
"Mmm..."
Xiao Chen carried her to the sofa. His kisses now were much more forceful than before, taking, sucking, advancing the offense.
The cool scent of mint entered her mouth. Yu Na felt her heart and brain explode thunderously. She was in no state to withstand such passion, yet she strove to respond, seek, entwine.
In the end, it was still she who surrendered first.
Yu Na panted heavily, burying her head in his broad chest. One hand draped over his shoulder, the other grabbed his arm. Her voice quivered softly, powerless: "Xiao Chen..."
Xiao Chen left her lips and kissed her eyebrows, her flushed cheeks, her eyes that he had conquered. He gently soothed her, "What's wrong?"
He held her and gently stroked her hair.
Yu Na went limp in his embrace, uncontrollably poking at his Adam's apple.
Feeling her actions, Xiao Chen's breathing grew heavy.
She seemed drunk, not knowing what she was saying. As if possessed, she made an unreasonable request: "Can I—kiss it again?"
Xiao Chen was taken aback: "Why?"
"My mouth isn't enough for you to kiss?" He gazed at her tenderly, admonishing her as he pinched her cheek. "You can keep kissing my throat like that?"
Yu Na lowered her eyes and said no more.
Xiao Chen could only laugh helplessly and acquiesce: "Go ahead and kiss it."
Yu Na's eyes lit up. She leaned in to kiss the mole.
Her soft, moist lips grazed his throat, carrying her sweet scent.
Xiao Chen felt he was undergoing an unprecedented test. His Adam's apple involuntarily bobbed up and down.
When she finally drew back, flashing him a smug smile, she boldly demanded: "I want to kiss it every day from now on."
Xiao Chen: ?
...
Sure enough, Qiao Rui didn't come back all night. In the evening, Xiao Chen sent Yu Na back to Huating One.
Before she went upstairs, Xiao Chen said: "Oh right, I arranged a private driver for you."
"Hmm? What driver?"
"I told him to be responsible for driving you to and from work every day."
Yu Na blinked: "...No need, no need. It's not far, why use a driver?"
"I've already discussed it with him. I'll send you his number on WeChat. Save it."
Seeing her silent, Xiao Chen drew her into his embrace. Uncharacteristically solemn, he said: "Do you know what I want to do most right now?"
"What?"
"To let you regain the affluent life you had before," he lightly tapped her nose. "Live freely, chase after the days you desire. I'll be behind you, making up for your past regrets, as your eternal fallback."
"That's what I want to do most, for now."
Yu Na's eyes grew hot.
Who said he couldn't sweet talk!
Wasn't this better than the cheesy words this morning!
That night, Xiao Chen sent over the legendary driver's number.
Yu Na saved the number.
Xiao Chen also sent:
C: 【Give me your number too, I'll send it to the driver】
N: 【185xxxxxxxx】
C: 【Okay baby】
The "baby" endeared Yu Na.
The next day, Yu Na woke up and washed up. She was about to make some cereal.
Before she could, her phone rang. She picked up to see it was the driver Xiao Chen arranged.
She glanced at the time, not even 7 AM yet. This was...too early!
