Xiao Tian hadn't expected them to kiss so smoothly; Zhu Zhuqing felt as if she'd been electrocuted, pulling away instantly and falling backward, about to hit the ground.
(It wasn't Xiao Tian's intention; he had blocked his hearing, but when Zhu Zhuqing got close, he smelled her fragrance, which made him involuntarily open his eyes, leading to this scene.)
Xiao Tian was quick-witted, wrapping an arm around Zhu Zhuqing's shoulder and pulling her entire body into his embrace.
However, this posture was quite ambiguous; Xiao Tian only needed to lower his head to see that hint of spring.
Xiao Tian only felt a bit hot now, controlling his head to not lower it.
It was as if a beast in his heart was endlessly roaring, "Go for it! Zhu Zhuqing clearly has feelings for you, and you're still holding back.
Do you really want to be a gentleman like Liu Xiahui?!"
They say purple is the most alluring, but Zhu Zhuqing's nightgown was particularly daring, much like the stepmother dresses he remembered; it wasn't loose, perfectly highlighting her figure, and the lace trim on the chest further stirred a man's primal instincts.
Why could Xiao Tian analyze it so clearly with just one glance?
This was because it was five parts seeing, five parts feeling.
A man's intuition!
"I, Xiao Tian, I, I didn't do it on purpose," Zhu Zhuqing struggled in Xiao Tian's embrace, but it was only symbolic, without much force, and her voice grew softer and softer.
Xiao Tian could see that the back of her ears had turned completely red.
Zhu Zhuqing: Ah ah ah, Zhu Zhuqing, you're so shameless! Xiao Tian is such a big bad guy, pretending to be asleep.
Wuwuwu, now I've been caught, what should I do?
Zhu Zhuqing felt so anxious she was about to cry, and her eyes welled up again, mainly from embarrassment.
She had finally mustered her courage, only to be discovered, which left her completely unprepared.
"Don't... don't move!" Suddenly, Xiao Tian's restrained voice came from behind Zhu Zhuqing, with a slight gasp.
Zhu Zhuqing froze completely, not daring to move.
She seemed to feel something and couldn't help but bury her face in front of her.
Making herself into a facial cleanser, Zhu Zhuqing was indeed the first.
"Zhuqing, what do you mean by this today? Is it what I understand?" Xiao Tian whispered into her ear, his warm breath on her ear feeling a little ticklish.
"Zhuqing, do you know how alluring this outfit of yours is to a man today? If, if I misunderstood, then quickly go change.
I'm begging you." Xiao Tian's tone carried a heavy sense of restraint.
He couldn't help it; this was beyond his control.
His skin was gradually reddening, already in a state of extreme congestion; he needed to cool down!
Zhu Zhuqing could feel Xiao Tian's state at this moment; Xiao Tian was gripping her arm, faint veins protruding, and his body was taut, clearly trying hard to restrain himself.
Feeling Xiao Tian's state, Zhu Zhuqing's first reaction was a slight smile at the corner of her mouth, and she didn't even care much that her arm had a red mark from his grip.
Zhu Zhuqing breathed in deeply, causing the waves in front of her to intensely rise and fall.
Xiao Tian couldn't help but look down; Zhu Zhuqing's shoulder strap had slipped down, making that patch of snow-white even more obvious.
White with a hint of red!
This made Xiao Tian's breathing increasingly unstable, his breaths growing rougher, already on the verge of eruption.
Today's Zhu Zhuqing was very strange; she was like a different person after her bath.
The daring purple alluring stepmother lace dress perfectly displayed her figure, which was already a huge visual impact for a man.
The most crucial point was that Zhu Zhuqing wasn't wearing anything underneath!
This visual impact had already reached its peak for Xiao Tian; if he restrained himself any further, he truly felt he couldn't take it.
"Zhuqing, if you keep this up, I'll..." Xiao Tian's voice was like a beast's low growl.
Zhu Zhuqing turned around, taking the initiative, and their eyes met.
Zhu Zhuqing's face was flushed with shyness, and her voice carried a hint of Charm, very soft, with a touch of provocation: "Then what will you do?"
As Zhu Zhuqing turned, her graceful figure was completely exposed before Xiao Tian.
As soon as Xiao Tian lowered his head, while their eyes met, his gaze couldn't help but drift downwards.
Both shoulder straps slipped down, which made Zhu Zhuqing...
Xiao Tian cursed inwardly, "Damn it, if I hold back any longer, I'll truly become a wimp!"
Xiao Tian looked at Zhu Zhuqing's rosy lips and kissed them, both dominant and gentle.
And his hands were not idle; one arm wrapped around Zhu Zhuqing's soft, boneless waist.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing only felt a slight numbness in her body.
Then, they separated, with a silvery bridge between them.
Xiao Tian's forehead rested on Zhu Zhuqing's forehead, his eyes lowered as he said, "Zhuqing, did you plan this today, to tempt me? I've never heard of you wearing such a nightgown before."
Zhu Zhuqing's heart was practically in her throat, and she chuckled softly, "Yes, I planned to tempt you today, but it's a pity.
I waited by the lake for a long time just now, but I didn't feel any movement.
Xiao Tian, are you really such a true gentleman? Do you really not feel my intentions?"
As Zhu Zhuqing spoke, her warm breath brushed against Xiao Tian's Adam's apple, giving Xiao Tian a strange sensation.
Xiao Tian said somewhat awkwardly, "How would I know what you meant? What if I acted like a beast and you got upset? I'm only a true gentleman on the surface.
You don't know, I really was tempted just now, but my rationality told me I couldn't do that without your permission, so I blocked my hearing until I smelled a faint fragrance, then I..."
Xiao Tian stopped speaking there, and Zhu Zhuqing now understood that Xiao Tian's heart, like hers, had gone through an internal struggle.
However, she chose to listen to the voice of the little devil, while Xiao Tian did the opposite, considering her feelings.
And what just happened was merely an accident.
Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Tian separated their foreheads, her hands resting on Xiao Tian's cheeks, their eyes met, and her lips moved, but no sound came out.
Xiao Tian, no matter how foolish, could understand the shape of her mouth.
"I am willing."
Xiao Tian could clearly feel something very intensely, constantly colliding, about to break free from its cage—this was Zhu Zhuqing's heartbeat.
Xiao Tian smiled with relief.
Zhuqing was so proactive; what else could he say?
How to explain it to Xiao Wu and Rongrong later, that could wait.
He couldn't hold back anymore; he had to follow his heart.
