Chapter 95 His maiden voyage
Silence took over right after Yu Chen had spoken. The way he said those words, that sounded so shameless, was honest and innocent as always. There was no teasing or mischievousness in his voice at all, making it impossible to decide whether he was really, actually just another shameless big bun or not.
But at that moment, even though Luo Xiaolei was obviously stunned again by his statement, she didn"t bother protesting inside her head anymore as she had done previously. Instead, she narrowed her eyes as she looked at him with a peculiar gaze, as if she suddenly turned into a beautiful big bad wolf ready to attack her prey.
Yu Chen was standing quietly by the bed as he stared back at her when suddenly, without a word, Luo Xiaolei hurriedly knelt on the bed and pulled Yu Chen towards her.
In an instant, her arms were already wrapped around his neck.
Luo Xiaolei planned to kiss him right at that moment. Since he was so eager and since he said one must not delay, even using a quote from Confucius in his speech, Luo Xiaolei was so riled up so she unthinkably tried to kiss him without any warning. Luckily, before their lips collided, she was able to stop herself the moment she felt Yu Chen"s body turn into an immobile statue.
In her head, she was supposed to say the words "Oops, I completely forgot to give you a warning first but this is your fault for telling me not to delay", but unexpectedly, no words came out of her mouth. She was unable to speak the instant she gazed at his beautiful, mesmerizing dark eyes. His outrageous beauty and the inexplicable darkness of his eyes were unlike anything else she had seen before, in this life or the previous one. He was just so irresistibly fascinating that before she knew it…
She had already leaned even closer to kiss him but once again…
The immobile stone wobbled.
The next second, his head fell on and rested on top of her shoulder.
"I"m sorry. You"re… your warm breath made my head spin." He uttered and Luo Xiaolei who had just awakened from his unintentional spell, choked.
"Cough, cough... h-huh? M-my breath?" she stammered, her voice filled with disbelief but the man on her shoulder simply uttered a soft "Mm".
Silence filled the room for another long while. Well, Luo Xiaolei was again, helplessly speechless. She just had no idea what to even say at that point in time. How on earth… how the h.e.l.l should she even interpret his words?
While Luo Xiaolei was struggling to find a word to say, Yu Chen broke the stillness as he slowly moved and raised his face again. He stared at her, calm as always.
"Can I ask you to be more deliberate?" he asked solemnly and Luo Xiaolei could only sigh.
Oh, so he wanted his maiden voyage to be deliberate… this little devil…
Luo Xiaolei sighed again before she moved and positioned herself comfortably. She also sat at the edge of the bed, facing him.
"I"m sorry, I think I"m a slow learner when it comes to this." He said, causing Luo Xiaolei to bite her lip for her to suppress her laugh. Er… slow learner? You, the great CEO of all people?! Do you really don"t have any idea just how unbelievable you are right now?
Darn it… after stunning me with his shamelessness… after unknowingly tempting me with his beauty… now he"s being frustratingly innocent again?! Yu Chen, you"re making my head spin as well!!
She honestly couldn"t really get why Yu Chen was reacting like this. She remembered her first time kissing a man and she didn"t feel anything special about it at all. It wasn"t even something memorable or anything. So why was Yu Chen fainting over a kiss, and now even over just her breath?! This was definitely not just because of his inexperience, right?!
Because of Luo Xiaolei"s prolonged silence, Yu Chen ask again. "What are you thinking?"
His question made her look up and she shook her head.. "Nothing serious. I was just wondering about… about how to be deliberate enough? Since… well, I thought I was pretty deliberate with you just now." Luo Xiaolei was laughing halfheartedly as she answered him.
Yu Chen"s face gave nothing away as always, but Luo Xiaolei could feel that he was still waiting for more, forcing her to think about something else to say.
But before she could even find anything, the man before her did something unexpected.
Yu Chen looked down, and then glanced up at her through his long beautiful black lashes. That simple gesture of him seemed to have happened in slow motion, and it effortlessly took her breath away. Holy crow… Yu Chen! How did he do that?
"O-okay, how about you do it instead? I mean, I"ll just sit here and you do the kissing. That way, you can be deliberate as much as you want," she added, but not even a second went by and she face palmed herself again. Shoot… here we go again… I can"t believe this… I actually offered myself to be his guinea pig?!!! You"re supposed to be the teacher! What"s going on with me?! Yu Chen, could it be that you"re a hypnotist too?!!
Before Luo Xiaolei could even try taking back her words, Yu Chen already nodded his agreement, as if this was one of the opportunities he was talking about a while ago; that he had to seize without delay.
"Mm, I believe that"s a good idea." He said and Luo Xiaolei could only force a laugh.
"Haha, yeah. It won"t hurt to try." Sigh… oh well, never mind. It"s just to start off with Luo Xiaolei, so don"t be disheartened. You can teach him all you want once he stops fainting… wait… what?!
Luo Xiaolei shook her head to annihilate the little mischievous dark angel inside her who was spouting out her seemingly inner desires, before she returned her gaze to the man before her.
"Okay, shall we start? Maybe you start with leaning your forehead to mine, so you can get used to the closeness first?" she suggested and the man simply nodded, obediently.
"I understand." He said and then without wasting a second, he started leaning in on her, slowly, never moving his eyes away from hers.
