Qin Yize didn’t expect Gu Qiaoqiao to react so strongly.
He felt quite guilty inside.
The key issue was, it was so late, he couldn’t just knock on the door of Gu Garden.
But he didn’t expect Gu Qiaoqiao to shoot without even looking.
Then, he vaguely understood.
Perhaps Gu Qiaoqiao mistook him for Dongfang Yu.
Yes, for someone like Dongfang Yu, there can’t be any hesitation.
That’s the best choice.
Qin Yize reached out and gently held Gu Qiaoqiao’s hands.
He lowered his head, resting his forehead against hers, and said softly, "Qiaoqiao, don’t be mad, it’s my fault this time, I scared you."
"What do you mean you scared me? I’m not scared at all."
"If you’re not scared, why are you so angry?" Qin Yize raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly.
"I’m mad because you were sneaking around in the dead of night. Why didn’t you come during the day?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked angrily.
At that moment, a slightly intoxicating atmosphere slowly enveloped the two of them.
Qin Yize’s gaze became increasingly gentle.
"During the day, I had to go for another check-up and change my dressing. I was supposed to visit the elders tomorrow, but I just couldn’t wait. It’s been days, Qiaoqiao, days since I’ve seen you. I really missed you..."
Qin Yize’s voice circled above Gu Qiaoqiao’s head.
Their breaths entangled.
His words about missing her made Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart race, as if it was filled with countless little bubbles.
It made her feel a little dizzy.
But then she recalled what had just happened, making her still somewhat frightened.
She said harshly, "But I don’t miss you."
"Qiaoqiao, don’t be mad. Let me be honest with you, I’ve had special training for situations . As long as you don’t fire a second shot, I can dodge it," Qin Yize explained softly.
After all, the stones fired from Gu Qiaoqiao’s slingshot pistol were different from real bullets.
And the position Qin Yize chose was instinctively the best angle.
From where he was standing, he could clearly see her.
He had the shortest time to react and dodge that stone bullet.
If the remaining four stone bullets had been fired, he probably wouldn’t have been able to dodge them.
After Qin Yize patiently finished explaining, Gu Qiaoqiao’s expression improved a lot.
Then she realized she was pinned against the wall by Qin Yize.
This position was too intimate.
They could hear each other’s breathing.
Gu Qiaoqiao wasn’t used to such an intimate posture.
She struggled lightly and whispered, "Qin Yize, let go of me first."
"Qiaoqiao, I missed you..."
Qin Yize spoke softly, his voice gentle with a hint of tenderness...
It stirred Gu Qiaoqiao emotionally.
She didn’t know how to respond to Qin Yize’s words.
Her hands were tightly held by Qin Yize.
Her shimmering eyes glistened under the dim light.
Qin Yize’s heart fluttered, and he couldn’t help but ask, "Qiaoqiao, do you miss me?"
Gu Qiaoqiao’s heart tightened, but she stubbornly said, "It’s only been a few days apart, I didn’t even get a chance to miss you before you came."
"You stubborn little girl," Qin Yize said in a spiteful voice.
Then he didn’t hesitate, let go of her hands, pulled her into his embrace, and lowered his head...
His cool lips sealed her long-desired red lips, a lingering, unforgettable kiss ensued...
Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but soften her body.
Her hands clutched Qin Yize’s sweater to support herself.
