The moment Lin Xiaojuan stepped into her home, she suddenly hugged Gu Xie. She hugged him so hard that Gu Xie took a step back and hugged her back. They had not even switched on the lights, and the question mark he had in mind grew bigger.
What’s wrong with her today?
Why is she in such a bad mood?
“Juan, what’s wrong?” Gu Xie put his fingers through her hair lovingly.
“Why did you come and pick me up?” Lin Xiaojuan sounded as if she was on the verge of crying.
“I had wanted to go to the supermarket to get some groceries for you. Didn’t you say that the groceries are running out at home? Then, I received a text from Tong Hua. I told him that I’d pick you up if he was in a hurry to go home and too busy to send you home.”
Lin Xiaojuan stayed in his arms and stuck her nose on his chest. She rubbed it against him, and through the thin shirt he had on, she could feel his warmth and hear his heartbeat.
She thought, I have really fallen in love with Gu Xie.
This love had made her confused and very insecure about herself
She wished she could be a beautiful and stunning Movie Diva that everyone loved so that she could be seen to be a good match for him.
“I…” Lin Xiaojuan was so nervous she did not know what to do. Suddenly, she realized that she liked Gu Xie and that her feelings were really complicated. She felt lost and nervous, yet she wanted to hide her true feelings. When one was being favored in a relationship, they should be the fearless one. Yet, she felt lost and inferior.
“I…” Lin Xiaojuan’s face was turning red, and she could not get her words out. She looked up at Gu Xie with tears welling up in her eyes.
“Don’t look at me like that.” In the darkness, his voice was deep and raspy. With two arms wrapped around her waist, he could not help but squeeze tighter.
“Why?”
He lowered his head and kissed her on the lips, using his actions to show her the reason. Lin Xiaojuan widened her eyes. This was the first time they had ever kissed since they got together. They had always stopped just before kissing. Even when they gave each other goodnight kisses, it was on the corner of her lips.
Lin Xiaojuan felt as if she was floating on the clouds, and she felt woozy. Gu Xie’s actions were too gentle and warm. She could feel how much he actually cherished and respected her. Lin Xiaojuan hugged him tightly.
This hug seemed to have triggered something. All of Gu Xie’s actions became exceptionally wild.
“Gu Xie…” Lin Xiaojuan pushed him nervously.
The passionate kiss went from her lips straight to her fine collarbones.
“Juan, I…”
His voice was really hoarse as if he was running out of breath. He bit her collarbone softly and hugged her. He calmed himself down and stopped himself from being too passionate. He could not scare her.
Lin Xiaojuan’s face was burning hot. She was really confused and scared. Her mind was completely blank.
“I…” Lin Xiaojuan was at a loss of what to do.
It was the first time that she had any intimacy with any guy. She was shocked and shy. She wished she could hide somewhere. She looked really lost and anxious. Gu Xie sighed and rubbed her head. Then, he fixed her clothes that were messed up back in order neatly.
His fingertips shook as they brushed past her face.
The soft feeling of Xiaojuan made him want to do that to her again.
One of them had claimed that their family was strict and that they would never marry, live with their partner, or have any intimacy with a member of the opposite gender and would stick to abstinence before marriage. Yet, they almost went beyond the limits. What’s more, it was the first kiss for both of them.
Lin Xiaojuan almost covered her face.
Where is the self-restraint?
Where are the principles I abode by all these years?
Gu Xie’s emotions had reverted back to being more normal and calm. He pulled up the skirt that he had pulled down previously, and he saw the kiss mark on her shoulder. Gu Xie’s eyes seemed to be full of passion. He had tried so hard to control himself, yet the strong sense of passion came up again.
“Excuse me, I’m going to the washroom. You can go down first.”
