Chapter 162 - Sheng Li's Kiss

The time had stopped for them when their lips met, but the flutters of their hearts were intensifying. Sheng Li moved his lips gently over hers, while Ying Lili closed her eyes to feel the essence of that kiss.

She moved her lips too, thus responding to Sheng Li's kiss. The way Sheng Li was moving his lips, she tried to imitate that, when she felt Sheng Li's hand on her cheek. He tilted her face to an angle such that he would get enough access to her lips.

Butterflies started dancing in Ying Lili's stomach.

'So, this was the feeling of getting a kiss from whom you love!'

Ying Lili felt her heart was thumping so loudly that it might be audible to Sheng Li but she did not want to stop the kiss. It was an actual kiss between them, though admittance of feelings was still left.

Sheng Li felt how soft, and almost pillowy Ying Lili's lips felt against his. Warmth filled his heart, and the sparks ignited inside him because of the way Ying Lili was kissing him. He could feel the warmth she was carrying for him, but the only thing he wanted to hear from her was the confession that she liked him despite his nature. Last night when Ying Lili admitted her feelings, it was hard for him to control, but he did not want to do anything when she was not in her right mind.

Now, at this moment, he realized that his father was right! Ying Lili was the woman who could equalize him in everything though still, he was a little hesitant to open up to her. Why? Because he did not want to get hurt, but then he could not stop his growing feelings for Ying Lili except to accept them.

It seemed to Ying Lili that her heart was exploding because of the magic that Sheng Li was doing on her lips from his. She was breathless, but she did not want to leave the kiss. Her hands traveled from Sheng Li's arm to his shoulders as she slowly encircled them around his neck.

A moment later, Sheng Li pulled away from the kiss and opened his eyes. Both were gasping for air. The back of his palm was still caressing Ying Lili's cheek as he looked at her. Ying Lili had also gradually opened her eyes, but she was too shy to look into his eyes, so she lowered them. Heat rose in her cheeks, which spread till her ears thus were looking like a ripened tomato.

Sheng Li smiled, seeing those facial expressions on her face. He was happy that Ying Lili had not pushed him away, so now he was convinced that Ying Lili indeed was in love with him. But why was she not confessing? The only thing which was troubling him.

Sheng Li pulled Ying Lili's chin up thus, making her look at him. Despite that, her eyes were lowered. "Look at me," Sheng Li whispered against her lips.

She gradually lifted her eyes and found how those black pairs of eyes were looking at her. That calmed her down, but her heart was still racing. The more she was looking at Sheng Li, the more her mind was saying to confess to him.

'But he kissed me first then he should confess to me.'

"Lili, you did not kiss me that well, but I liked it. Did you eat strawberries again? I felt the taste of the strawberry on your lips." Those words brought Ying Lili out of her thoughts. "Ahh, I am happy that your friend did not come today to interrupt us." He looked towards the door and smiled.

"How can you say it was not good?" Ying Lili blurted out. It was her first actual kiss with him and he was speaking like this!

"Was it? I did not get excited to kiss you more. That's why I pulled away way earlier," Sheng Li pronounced. He was teasing Ying Lili again because when she used to get angry, he enjoyed it.

Ying Lili huffed. "Even you do not know how to kiss? Else I would have expected for more," Ying Lili remarked. Sheng Li drew his brows together, and the smile from his lips disappeared upon hearing that comment.

Ying Lili stood up from the bed when she was pulled back by Sheng Li who hoisted over her, pinning her down at the bed. "What did you say?" Sheng Li asked.

"You heard clearly what I said" she placed her hands on Sheng Li's chest and pushed him away when he pinned her hands on the mattress.

"I know you said that to make me furious," Sheng Li stated with a grin. He leaned again towards her lips, but then did not kiss them. Instead, he moved up. His hand released her one hand as it pinched Ying Lili's nose. "You get angry so easily. I know you were expecting more" he pulled his hand back and then planted a soft kiss on her forehead.

A tiny smile formed on Ying Lili's lips but she suppressed it and did not want to show it to Sheng Li. Her mood was cheered up by then. "I heard from Miss Tzu that this residence has an enormous garden and there are a variety of flowers there. Let's go there," Ying Lili delightedly said, waiting for what Sheng Li had to say.

"Garden? I don't go to the garden," Sheng Li said as he moved away from her and sat up.

Ying Lili was not only surprised but also confused to learn about that. "What do you mean by that?" Ying Lili queried him.

"The flowers give me a headache. The flowers are temporary and then they wither away. What's the use of seeing them? I do not know why people even like them?" Sheng Li was annoyed, and it was visible from the way he was talking.

Ying Lili grabbed Sheng Li's hand and got down from the bed. "Let's go. I will not listen to anything," Ying Lili said as she pulled him up. Sheng Li's heavyweight resulted in the wavering of Ying Lili's step and she fell backward.

"Ahh," a cry escaped her mouth as she felt she was going to hit the ground, but Sheng Li caught her by encircling his arm around her waist. Ying Lili was in a half-bent position while both her hands were gripping the long sleeves of Sheng Li's dress. They stared into each other's eyes for a while before Sheng Li made her stand straight.

"You can go to the garden. I have some urgent work," Sheng Li proclaimed and walked away from there. Ying Lili was disheartened as Sheng Li left her sight.
