The alcohol warms her heart. Su Qinghe nestles in Gu Yanchen's arms, clutching the hem of his shirt with trembling fingers. Nervous, she says, "Gu Yanchen, my heart is beating so fast. No one's ever held me like this before. I'm a little flustered." He lowers his head and kisses the crown of her head, tightening his arms around her waist. The pounding of his heart makes her ears burn. He gives a hoarse, soft laugh. "Don't be scared. My heart's beating even faster than yours. It hasn't slowed down once since the first time I saw you."
He leans down and kisses her. At first, he tests the waters gently, their lips brushing softly against each other. As the alcohol takes hold, the kiss grows hot and forceful, filled with desire long held in check. Her body goes weak beneath his kisses, and she can only cling to his shoulders to stay upright, soft little moans escaping her. Only when she's nearly out of breath does he pull away, resting his forehead against hers as their ragged breathing mingles.
He gazes into her tear-bright eyes, his voice unbearably hoarse. "Every moment with you feels like I'm bathing in honey, so sweet I lose myself completely." She tips her head up and rubs her chin against his, smiling sweetly. "Then let's make every day from now on just like this, okay? Waking up to see you, holding you before we fall asleep, and never parting for the rest of our lives."
Sweetness fills the room. It turns out the sweetest everyday life is kissing you from the first flutter of young love all the way to the end of our days.
Romance + an ordinary love story + sweetness and heartbreak + a full-length novel
