I don't know what's going on, the atmosphere is normal, he didn't do anything to me, but in this quiet living room, with the night outside, he doesn't speak, and I feel a little anxious for no reason. Maybe it's my instincts, urging me to escape from this anxious atmosphere as soon as possible, so I stand up and say: "Then you go to bed early, goodnight."

  Wu Yu raised his head and looked at me, one of his hands still holding mine, with something flashing in his eyes. Then he suddenly pulled me into his arms, my heart skipped a beat, and I sat on his lap without realizing it.

  It was a kiss that left me breathless. One hand cradled my face, kissing me with fervor, while the other hand slid along my waist, slowly caressing upwards. I felt my entire body tremble slightly as his hand slipped under my shirt, and my heart almost exploded, instinctively wanting to break free, but he had a firm grip, rendering me immobile.

  "Ah..." he whispered, "I love you."

  I don't know how others feel when they hear this sentence, but in fact he was also the first man to say it to me. But my heart beats rapidly, and for a moment I couldn't refuse his caress.

  It's not like we've been kissing for long, but it's already making my whole body hot and dizzy. The lights around us are still shining brightly, but they seem to be merging with the darkness outside the window, and we're also melting into some kind of dark color. But that's also something I've never experienced before, and it scares me. I'm getting a bit panicked, so in an instant, I force myself to break free and stand up. Wu Yu is still sitting there, his T-shirt is all wrinkled from my grasp, his face is a bit red, but his eyes are still dim.

  "I said, 'Don't get any ideas. Go to sleep, goodnight.' After finishing speaking, I quickly entered the master bedroom and closed the door. Listening to him in the living room, it seemed like he hadn't moved at all. I leaned against the door, took a few deep breaths, looked down at the lock, and hesitated for a moment. It felt a bit overly dramatic to lock the door, but not locking it seemed too casual. In the end, I still locked it with a very light movement, hoping he hadn't heard."

  After I finished my bath, my body temperature seemed to cool down, but there was still a small flame in my heart that couldn't be extinguished. I changed into my pajamas and lay on my 2-meter-wide bed, carefully listening outside, it seemed like there was no more noise, Wu Yun should have already taken his bath and gone to sleep. This made me feel at ease, but my heart felt a bit empty. Actually, I wanted to snuggle up against him, wanted to talk to him some more, have more kisses and intimacy, wanting to get that sweet, thrilling love that makes one sink in, just like that.

  Just as I was about to turn off the light and go to sleep, I heard a knock at the door: "Jiao Jiao."

  "What's up?"

  Wu Yu said: "You open the door first."

  I didn't think much, barefooted and stepped down, opened the door, and felt a slight shock in my heart.

  The living room lights had been turned off by him, and there was no light in the second bedroom either. He must have finished taking a bath for some time, his hair slightly damp, wearing only a soft white T-shirt and casual shorts. There was still a faint smell of smoke on his body, apparently he had just finished smoking.

  "What's wrong?" I asked.

  "He fell silent for a moment, then said, 'Nothing, just came to see you before bed.'"

  My heart warmed up: "Oh."

  Then Wu Yu said something that I later thought was the most shameless thing he had ever said in his life.

  He said: "I'll go in and sit for a while."

  Although I've read countless books and am quite skilled at writing romance stories, when it comes to real-life experience, I'm still too naive. Maybe it was the late hour, or maybe it was because we were alone in the same room together, but my mind was a bit muddled. So I let him in.
