Chapter 163 Kiss Was Intentional
Chapter 163 Kiss Was Intentional
Even though her lips tasted like tobacco and alcohol, for the first time, he didn’t despise it at all. It felt more of like an intoxicating drug that made it too hard for him to pull away but he couldn’t possibly push his luck too far.
Didn’t want this proud peacock to run away!
But as soon as he pulled away, he felt at a loss as if someone stole a part of himself. But the way her eyes were blinking back at him made him feel accomplished.
Ru’s mind had gone numb along with her lips and she only recovered when his voice registered in her mind. But on reflex, her hand lifted up to strike her palm straight at his chest. However, Xiao Zhiren had sharp instincts and he moved out of her reach of time but still, her hand had grazed past his shoulder which instantly felt a stinging pain.
The way her hand moved made Xiao Zhiren gulp since he could imagine the consequences of that strike if it had landed on his chest. Was she planning on killing him? Not really! It was her body’s reaction which had nothing to do with her mind or her heart. Just like her body had given up on listening to her mind the moment he touched her.
But Ru, on the other hand, was completely in a daze. She lifted her fingers to touch her lips that could still feel some tingling sensation that felt a bit strange. She lifted her head to look at him and unconsciously her eyes dropped to his lips.
She turned on her heels to leave when she heard his voice, "Didn’t like the memory? I was just teaching you how to make some memories since you seemed clueless." He really wanted to smack himself for trying to irk her but he just couldn’t stop his own words from tumbling out.
She faced him again and quietly observed his face while he was stretching his arm before sighing out, "I’m sorry for hurting you. It wasn’t intentional. It happened on reflex."
"Ah..." He stepped close to her again and whispered, "But my kiss was intentional and I won’t be apologizing for it." He tapped her nose with the tip of his finger before striding back to the room. His shoulder felt a bit uncomfortable because of the blow it received earlier but it wasn’t something particularly unbearable.
As his silhouette disappeared from her vision, she closed her eyes and leaned her head back on the wall. ’What the hell just happened?’
’I would say, he just took your official first kiss.’ As her conscience reminded her of this fact, Ru held her head in her hands and felt like the world was getting dizzy. Was the ground shaking or was she hallucinating? Whichever it was, she had no plan on confirming it at this time.
She wanted to escape from here. That was the only thing in her mind and since she had seen Zhu Jie leaving from the normal route, she didn’t want to take her chances and that’s why she chose a window and jumped down without thinking.
Jumping down from the fourth floor was done in a flash and she had landed perfectly well. Getting up, she dusted off her hands and rubbed the nape of her neck.
"I didn’t know Zurich is in Imperial Capital."
Ru’s eyes widened at that voice and in extremely slow motion, she rotated her neck to look behind. Sure enough, there he was leaning against the wall with his arms crossed before his chest.
Pushing his body off of the wall, he came out of the dark corner and smiled at her rather furiously. "I didn’t know our Ru’er is so good at lying now."
Ru was cursing her luck for this game. Why was this day taking such unexpected turns? She didn’t want to get caught earlier when she was with Xiao Zhiren, let alone now when she could still feel his presence on her lips. Why was this best friend too good at reading her?
