Chapter 279 - Simple Life (2/2)

Ye Jie pinched her small nose and said, "I don't need to look for reasons any more." Taking a brief pause he lowered his face making his lips brush past her ear and added, "The biggest reason for my happiness is right here."

Xu Mey once thought that simple life would be too boring for someone like her who became accustomed to an adventurous and hectic life. Who knew, being with him will actually change her perspective to a whole new level.

"Ah-Jie, how did you fall in love with me?" Xu Mey turned her body to face Ye Jie as she asked.

Ye Jie cupped her face in his big hands and answered, "Ask yourself."

"Huh? What did I do?" Xu Mey frowned in confusion.

Ye Jie smiled at her adorable expression and stroked her nose with his own as he whispered, "You're the thief who broke into my heart. So, you should be asking yourself, not me." Xu Mey was left speechless at his words. Just why was he so damn good with words?

Seeing her scowling a bit, he captured her lips between his own for a kiss. There was no rush. He kissed her at a slow pace, taking his sweet time as if there was no place he'd rather be. And in fact, there was no other place he'd be than being with his baby. His hands tightened around her waist but he didn't try to lift the hem of her shirt.

The kiss was unlike any other they had before for Xu Mey since his kisses made her feel giddy as he explored her mouth with curiosity like a child. Pulling her closer, he kissed her until she moaned. His kiss made her feel like dancing like a star... The brightest star of his life...

He pulled away a bit and asked, "Do you want to go back?"

Xu Mey's mind was reeling with that kiss so much so that a simple question's answer for her was, "Ah-Jie..." Ye Jie laughed into her mouth taking her breath away; at least what was left of it anyway.

With a line of nickel-silver in the horizon, Ye Jie laid back on the sand, pulling her body over himself. Feeling his familiar warmth, Xu Mey's mind slowly came back from the dreamland. She looked straight into his eyes as if looking for something and when she found what she was looking for, she smiled in satisfaction before hiding her face in the crook of his neck.
