Just by looking at it, Natalia could imagine the juiciness of the candy as one’s teeth sank into it.
Youyou pinched the soft candy and smiled deeply.
“Do you want some?”
Natalia did not speak, neither did she look away. She simply stared at the candy in his hand. Other than craving it, she couldn’t think straight. Except, she did not compromise. Instead, she held a proud expression on her face and did not intend to bend over for this soft candy.
“You don’t want to eat it? What a pity! This candy is more yummy than yours!”
Natalia thought to herself, it must be delicious! Just smelling its fragrance, she found it hard to hold herself back!
But she must not compromise!
Natalia tried to look away, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t. That candy was too tempting! She couldn’t help it. She couldn’t help it…
No, she must not cave. She had to hold out.
With that thought in mind, she didn’t move, but she couldn’t pull her gaze away either. She allowed her saliva to wreak havoc.
The boy studied her expression and sighed inwardly. This lass is rather cute, isn’t she?
Natalia stared at the candy without moving. She clearly wanted to pretend to be disdainful, but her unblinking gaze betrayed her!
He had already seen her gulp a few times, but she was still holding back. He could not help but feel sorry for her!
Forget it! Stop teasing her! Otherwise, it would only make him look unkind.
So he brought the candy to her mouth. “Eat it then! I’ll feed you.”
Hurry up and eat!
Otherwise, you’ll start drooling!
Natalia swallowed hard and was about to open her tiny pink mouth to take in the candy when the boy blurted out, “After you’ve taken this candy, we’re considered friends, huh?”
Natalia stopped abruptly at that, shutting her mouth and giving him a disgusted look. She finally looked at him, but from the corner of her eye. She clearly despised him.
The look said: Trying to buy me off with a candy?
Naive.
But the boy laughed. “Why? Are you not willing to be my friend?”
Natalia shook her head.
Tilting his head slightly, the boy rubbed his chin. “Don’t you like me?”
Natalya remained impassive.
“It seems that one candy won’t be enough.” The boy held up the candy box again. “If you and I are friends, then this box of candies is all yours.”
And so Natalia finally wavered! Not that she wasn’t tempted. Looking at the box full of candies, her eyes were filled with yearning.
The boy raised the candy to her mouth again, enticing her, “Be a good girl and eat!”
Natalia could stand it no longer. She opened her tiny mouth and carefully bit into the candy.
The candy wasn’t very big. The movement, along with her lips, brushed against his fingertips lightly.
Youyou blushed. Her touch made him feel as if his fingertips were burning!
Natalia, on the other hand, was oblivious. She took the candy in her mouth and was finally satisfied. It was the first time she’d eaten a soft candy, and the first time she’d ever tasted anything so delicious.
Ohhhh… So sweet! The candy alone had raised her opinion of the boy a few levels.
