It was Rong Si…
Su Jiu had woken up, but she still felt like she were in a dream.
We are really together, right? Why does it feel so unreal?
Even at that moment, she still could not believe it. However, she felt like she had eaten ice cream. Her heart was bubbling over with sweet happiness.
She remembered how late it had been when she had returned last night. She had fallen asleep in the car. Rong Si had brought her back to the apartment. Except—
“W-Why am I sleeping in the same room as you?” Su Jiu blushed. There was clearly another room in this apartment!
“We’re already a couple. What’s wrong with sleeping together?” Rong Si looked at her sideways as if he has already accepted it.
“Then tell me honestly. Did you take advantage of me?”
“No,” Rong Si answered. Su Jiu had fallen asleep last night, but he had been too excited to sleep. As he looked at her peaceful sleeping face, he really wanted to kiss her, but he didn’t want to wake her. In the end, he had just kissed her forehead and lay down beside her.
This was the first time Rong Si had slept in the same bed with her. He had been nervous. His body had been rigid from head to toe. The boy had been afraid to get too close to her, scared he might think something he shouldn’t. He had even slept on the edge of the bed, the distance between them enough to fit another human.
Next time I get the chance, he thought, I won’t be so far away from her.
Naturally, Su Jiu believed him. If he said no, then he hadn’t done it. She pursed her lips. “At least you’re a gentleman!”
Rong Si chuckled. “I didn’t do anything last night, but now, I think I might.”
Su Jiu froze. Think you might what?
Take advantage of me?
Even as she thought about it, he leaned in as if to kiss her.
Su Jiu’s eyes widened, and she hurriedly reached out to push him away. She tilted her head to the side, avoiding his lips. “No, I haven’t brushed my teeth…”
“I don’t mind.”
“I mind!” Su Jiu said as she jumped off the bed. She couldn’t kiss him directly without brushing her teeth, and she didn’t know if she had bad breath. If she did, the little villain might not like her anymore.
Su Jiu always wanted to look her best in front of the boy she liked.
Rong Si got out of bed too and followed Su Jiu to the bathroom. He took out a new pair of toothbrushes, squeezed on toothpaste, and handed them to her.
When she finished brushing her teeth, he wrapped his arms around her from behind and braced his arms on the sink, trapping her in front of him. Then, he bent his head to her ear and said, “Can I kiss you after you brush your teeth?”
Su Jiu looked at him in the mirror. His face was devilishly handsome. She stiffened.
“Not a word? Well, I’ll take that as a yes,” Rong Si said. He gently tilted her face toward his and caught her lips with his.
He was gentle, as if he were kissing a fragile flower. Su Jiu closed her eyes and sank into his tenderness.
However, the gentleness was only temporary. Not long after, the little villain displayed the aggression that belonged to a man.
Su Jiu couldn’t breathe again. Rong Si’s face was slightly flushed, but he put on a nonchalant expression. “Can’t breathe? Looks like I’ll have to practice more.”
Understanding what he meant by “practice more,” Su Jiu got a little ashamed and angry. She glared at him. “Rong Si, so that’s how you are. Shameless!”
Rong Si laughed again, the sound coming from his chest. It sounded amazing.
