"Weren’t we supposed to have dinner?" Gu Ziyou’s sullen voice followed him out of the elevator.

Forget it, it’s better to slowly imagine the scenario than jump to conclusions.

Or perhaps, she should watch some cheesy idol dramas, maybe then he’d get it.

"Mm."

Gu Ziyou heard the sound of the lock opening.

After opening the door, the first thing was to see if there would be any uninvited guests in his home.

Shen Lingfeng pulled out the key and turned to see her with that cautious and battle-ready look; even though that issue had been explained, as she entered now, her face still showed obvious concern.

His usually indifferent gaze softened; perhaps that night, he should have let Ayan handle the bail alone.

His gaze slowly moved down from her eyes; her skin was extraordinarily good—truly no exaggeration in saying it was fairer than snow. Not even a hint of flaw could be seen even without makeup, smooth enough that one couldn’t help but want to reach out... 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

Her rosy lips were like enticing poppies, she was about to speak.

Suddenly, Shen Lingfeng raised his hand, and in her moment of surprise, stepped forward.

His long leg stretched forward, pinning her against the back of the door.

His large hand gripped the back of her head, the pad of his thumb gently gliding across her cheek.

Gu Ziyou’s eyes widened, her watery eyes blurred like mist, starkly contrasting yet looking at him in astonished nervousness.

It was as though he was bewitched, and without a hint of hesitation, he lowered his head, kissing firmly.

The girl finally getting her wish was both surprised and nervous, her mind suddenly seemed to crash.

A blank slate.

The tip of his tongue tracing her lips made her feel ticklish.

As soon as she opened her mouth, the warm softness surged in.

The indescribable feeling made her tremble slightly, her back pressed against the door, the chill seeped through her thin clothes.

Yet her face was burning hot, her hands resting on his arms, she stood on tiptoe, lifting her head to obediently let him taste unrestrainedly.

Even her legs felt light, his fiery breath seemed to melt her.

The lingering inside her lips didn’t last long before a clear growl was heard.

Shen Lingfeng pulled away from her lips, his beautiful dark eyes still lingered with enduring desire.

Gu Ziyou couldn’t stand on her toes any longer, her heels slackening, she was about to fall, fortunately he caught her sliding body.

"I’m hungry." She looked at him, tearful yet unable to cry.

So embarrassing, her first kiss, and it happened when her stomach was growling hungrily.

Once it growled, he actually stopped.

"Wait a moment," Shen Lingfeng whispered, "If you’re too hungry, go find something in the fridge first."

Gu Ziyou just nodded, her eyes still on him.

Her hands remained tightly clamped on his arm.

He lowered his eyes, glanced at her hand, and reminded her.

Only then did Gu Ziyou quickly release and stand properly, like she was in a military posture under penalty.

He let go of his hand holding her waist and quickly withdrew to the kitchen.

If she continued looking at him like this, it would be difficult for him to keep calm.

She didn’t know how enticing she looked when he opened his eyes to see her.

Over here, Gu Ziyou was now covering her face with both hands in a frenzy.

Why didn’t she eat something before leaving work?

Why did she get hungry at such an inconvenient time?

The long-awaited moment was unexpectedly interrupted by her stomach growling.

Looking down at her unsatisfying stomach, she madly grabbed her belly.

"Mengmeng, no one ruins the mood better than me!"

Gu Ziyou was so eager to mock herself, her fingers rapidly typing away at her phone, sending several messages back and forth.

Xue Mengmeng was speechless, "...Wasn’t it agreed to settle new scores with old scores together? Your way of settling accounts is rather unique."
