Chapter 221 - Confession (1/2)

On the terrace.

Jun Zixuan sat on an armchair beside the swimming pool as he glanced at the crystal card in his hand expressionlessly.

”Baby~”

He tilted his head upwards when he heard the voice.

Yu Mei walked around the swimming pool carefully before standing in front of him.

She folded her arms in front of her chest and glanced at his face under the moonlight, ”Steward Gu said you wanted space and I should not come here.”

”What are you doing here then?” He asked softly.

”Does that means you really want space?” When he did not reply, she frowned, ”Unfortunately, I am not giving you that. I will cling to you till you are completely frustrated.”

”Will you stop clinging to me after I am frustrated?” He raised an eyebrow.

”No, I will cling even more until you get used to me,” She blinked, ”I am going to cling to you even after we become ghosts.”

He chuckled and extended an arm towards her.

The moment she put her palm in his, he dragged her to his lap in one swift move. She grabbed the back of his neck and placed soft kisses on his cheek and earlobe before nuzzling her nose on his shoulder, ”Don't give off such gloomy vibe. It's scary.”

”Did I scare you?” He glanced at her face.

She blinked, ”It's scary because I feel so helpless,” She lowered her head for a moment before looking back into his eyes, ”I feel like taking revenge against anything or anyone that upsets you. I don't think it's normal anymore. What have you done to me?”

”Mei-”

”No,” She pressed her palms on his chest, ”Let me speak. This is so weird to me. I have never been like this. I used to have everything sorted out in my mind,” As Han Mei, whatever she would decide, she would do it at any costs but right now...”You know how many times I have broken my rules for you? At times, I can't get you out of my head. When I see you smiling, I strangely feel happy too. Please don't laugh at me as I am not at all trying to be corny here. I am not a hopelessly romantic person but you-”

He cut off her words with a sudden passionate kiss that came out of nowhere, knocking her breath out. She tried to respond to him with equal intensity but he seemed to be in another league of his own.

His lips at hers for one last time before he sucked them gently as they parted. She panted while he wrapped an arm around her waist, ”You are not the only one suffering,” He spoke beside her ear.

She gulped and distanced her face from him before looking around, ”I-I think this terrace is quite beautiful. There is...a swimming pool and plants and...”

”I will take that as a confession,” He pinched her chin and turned her face such that she was looking straight at him once again.

”I praised the terrace. Where is the confession in it?” She cleared her throat.

”I believe you know what I mean,” He raised an eyebrow.

She buried her face in his chest. It was too embarrassing now. She ended up acting on impulse once again.

But when saw his lonely back earlier...She just felt her mind going blank at that moment.

She initially wanted to do something to make him happy but in the end, she ended up saying all her innermost feelings.

”What happened to you? Why are you here alone?” She cupped the side of his face in her palm, ”The fruit salad was tasty but I think I would have enjoyed it better if you were the one feeding me.”

”You are so spoiled,” He whispered.

”I know that will not stop you from spoiling me more, right?”

”Right.”
