Chapter 21 Trying for a Month
I didn't know how to face Ji Mingxu. His kiss was light and carried some restraint. It was just on my cheek.
But I felt my cheeks burning.
"We can't..." I tried to pull myself together.
Ji Mingxu said, "How do you know without trying?"
How could we? Our families were so close. What if we dated and then broke up?
"Little Jiang Dai, try for a month, okay?" he said. "After a month, if you still think it's no good, we can go back to before."
In principle, it was still no.
Ji Mingxu said, "Just fulfill me. I've liked you for so long. You never got it. If this continues, I can't move on either."
Whether I liked him or not, Ji Mingxu was an important person to me.
I really couldn't watch him obsess.
That night I lost sleep until midnight. The next morning I woke up and found Ji Mingxu had made breakfast and called me to eat.
Thinking about agreeing to him last night, I felt like I was crazy.
He said he wanted to know if I hated kissing him. His eyes stared straight at me. I said as an actress, kissing was normal. It could be with anyone.
Ji Mingxu said kissing with someone you like was different.
He kissed me.
His tongue hooked mine little by little. My breath was taken away. In that moment my mind went blank.
Ji Mingxu's breath completely enveloped me. It was just a kiss. I didn't know if there was technique. I only felt softness and tremors at the tip of my heart.
The moment my body softened, he took advantage and held me, continuing to kiss.
Such entanglement and teasing was my first time. In the process of our pure relationship changing, it even felt absurdly taboo.
My scalp went numb.
In the following time, kissing seemed to become routine.
I didn't hate it. But I still felt a bit confused about our relationship.
On the 15th day, Ji Mingxu and I had no work. He stayed at my place. But the whole day there was only one quick kiss.
He was always the one initiating.
I started to suspect if he was tired of it. But after getting used to kissing, I was actually a bit addicted.
My mouth itched. I wanted to kiss.
But Ji Mingxu didn't seem to have the intention.
At ten o'clock in the evening, he put down his tablet and said he was going back to rest.
I couldn't hold back. As he was about to go out, I reached out and pulled him back, pressing him against the door to kiss. I hooked his neck, tiptoed to touch his lips, tracing the shape little by little, then seeking his tongue.
When Ji Mingxu carried me back to the sofa and let me straddle his lap to continue kissing, I realized I might have been tricked.
But it didn't seem important.
Desire was human nature, but it was easy to form bad habits.
On the 30th night, I could already touch Ji Mingxu's chest and abs without psychological burden. He leaned back on the sofa, looking so charming.
But after midnight, he grabbed my hand.
"Little Jiang Dai, if you keep touching, it'll be charged. Give me a straight answer. You've almost devoured me clean. Don't you like me yet?"
He was already asking knowingly.
I thought carefully. Except for Ji Mingxu, I really couldn't stand others interfering in my affairs like this.
I touched his face. "You said you've liked me for so long. Why only this year..."
Ji Mingxu sighed. "Because only this year I felt you seemed to like me a bit. If I confessed earlier, you would have run away."
"I'm sorry."
"Sorry for what? I was willing."
Ji Mingxu said, "If you really feel sorry for me, say something nice to coax me."
"Ji Mingxu, you really look so good."
He smiled. "After being blind for so many years, my eyes finally healed. It's not easy. Come, kiss to celebrate."
