Chapter 47 - But Listen with your heart (1/2)

King Jin can see the hesitation on her eyes. He could feel that somehow, Yi Ling likes him. What was keeping her from admitting to it, he wondered.

"Listen to your heart... Ling'er.." he said her name softly in her ears.

Her heart couldn't handle it anymore. The way he mentioned her name was beyond anything she felt before. There was love, care and trust. But there was a thought in her mind that can't be erase. She shook her head. She knew if she said something, he'll probably be suspicious of her. She gulped, she was now nervous. Those dark purple eyes seems to know all of her secrets.

"... I ... I'm not sure." She replied. she looked down, unable to face him.

King Jin's brows furrowed. Something was stopping her, what could it be? He needed to consult with Yu Ran. He didn't know anything about a woman's feelings. Poor Yu Ran, he has no clue either. Isn't that why he was single?

He lifted her chin back up, he didn't like her seemingly bowing to him. He didn't want his woman to bow to him at all, she will be his equal. He thought.

Staring at her brown eyes, something was pulling his head down. Yi Ling knew what was going to happen next. Even though Mu Xin teased her most of the time, they have never kissed in the lips at all. She pursed her red lips together. She didn't even know how to kiss. She was nervous but didn't stopped him.

Since she wasn't trying to stop him, he took a risk and kissed her. When their lips touched, He felt that somehow the time had stopped. He closed his eyes , as he tasted her sweet mouth.

Yi Ling was red as a tomato, his lips was so sweet. She closed her eyes, she was going to get addicted at this. Their lips moved on their own. His hands wrapped around her body tightly, afraid that she'll disappear. Feeling the moment, She wrapped her arms around his neck. It seems like it was a long time, really it wasn't.

Yu Ran walked into the scene. He didn't know that they were having a moment. When he heard that Yi Ling woke up, he informed the king. The King was faster than him so he arrived first. Yu Ran just caught up. His eyes went wide and his face turned red. Afraid that he will be noticed, he instantly turned around. He didn't notice that a servant was walking behind him and they collided.

"Im sorry, my lord. I didn't see you there" Said the male servant and bowed. Afraid to offend Yu Ran.

Hearing that someone was there, Yi Ling broke away from the kiss. Her face was awfully red. King Jin's brows was crossed, but his eyes glimmered with joy. He looked back at the cause of interruption and saw Yu Ran. Yu Ran gulped. He is dead, he thought. King Jin lifted his brows to him, seemingly saying. What are you still standing there for? Yu Ran got the hint and bowed. He pulled the servant away together with him and left.

King Jin looked back to Yi Ling and found she was no where in sight. He smiled, she ran away again. He touched his sore lips, That was his first kiss. He blushed.

Yi Ling ran back to her chamber. Her heart was beating too fast. That kiss brought her closer to heaven she thought. She sat on the bed. She couldn't help but think about that kiss. King Jin didn't seem experienced at all, does that mean it was his first too? she blushed.
