Chapter 2024: Master Zhi Coaxes the Beauty; What Should I Do? I Like You So Much
Thinking of this, Su Yunling felt a tightness in his heart and immediately asked, "What’s wrong? Are you sleepy again?"
Gu Zhiqi shook her head, wrapped her hands around his waist, tilted her head slightly, and looked at him, "No."
Only then did Su Yunling put down the worries he had raised.
Gu Zhiqi continued to look up at Su Yunling, "You’re too tall, lower your head."
Su Yunling’s eyes filled with confusion, he lowered his head to look at Gu Zhiqi, and then met her deep, misty eyes.
No matter when he confronted her gaze, as long as he looked into her eyes, Su Yunling always felt as if he was trapped, unable to escape.
While Su Yunling was lost in Gu Zhiqi’s eyes, a soft, warm touch landed on his lips.
Su Yunling snapped back to reality.
He found Gu Zhiqi with her hands around his waist, standing on tiptoe to touch his lips.
Su Yunling’s eyes suddenly darkened, his hands fell on Gu Zhiqi’s waist, lifted her slightly, and deepened the kiss.
It’s mid-August, even if it’s already evening, the weather is still a bit warm.
In no time at all, Gu Zhiqi began to feel a hint of heat.
She reached out and pushed Su Yunling.
Feeling the force on his chest, Su Yunling reluctantly released the person in his arms.
As soon as they separated, Gu Zhiqi said softly, "No more."
"It’s too hot."
Hearing what she said, Su Yunling paused, looked down, "Master Zhi is afraid of heat, huh?"
Saying that, he lifted his hand to cup Gu Zhiqi’s face, gently rubbing it with his thumb.
Gu Zhiqi protested and pushed his hand away, "Your hands are hot too."
Seeing this, Su Yunling laughed and withdrew his hand, then moved it to Gu Zhiqi’s waist, "Why is Master Zhi so proactive today?"
Gu Zhiqi: "To cheer you up."
Su Yunling: ?
"Hmm? Cheer me up?"
This was something Su Yunling couldn’t figure out no matter how hard he thought.
Gu Zhiqi: "Since you came out of the Heavenly Domain Pavilion, you’ve been distracted and wouldn’t tell me what happened, so I wanted to cheer you up."
As she spoke, Gu Zhiqi lifted her hand and pinched Su Yunling’s face, "Don’t be upset."
After hearing this, Su Yunling laughed.
His smile was bewitching and dazzling, brighter than the sun.
Gu Zhiqi steadily looked at Su Yunling, unwilling to turn her gaze away.
"I’m not upset," Su Yunling said, raising a hand to gently rub the top of Gu Zhiqi’s head.
"Really?" Gu Zhiqi was skeptical.
Su Yunling: "Really."
"Alright, I’ll believe you." Gu Zhiqi decided to pretend to believe him.
Su Yunling pulled her into his arms, bent slightly, rested his chin on Gu Zhiqi’s shoulder, and softly called, "Master Zhi."
"Hmm."
Su Yunling: "What to do? I really like you."
"I want to be with you forever and never part."
Gu Zhiqi’s ears moved slightly; she leaned against Su Yunling, muffled, "Then let’s always be together."
She too didn’t want to part with him.
Su Yunling’s eyes filled with joy, but remembering what he heard from Ye You today at the Heavenly Domain Pavilion, he couldn’t smile fully, "But, if one day..."
The rest of the words, Su Yunling didn’t say, just tightened his hold around Gu Zhiqi.
"Hmm? If one day what?"
Gu Zhiqi heard clearly and instinctively felt that Su Yunling’s distraction today was related to the unfinished sentence, so she asked.
After Gu Zhiqi asked, Su Yunling remained silent, and just when Gu Zhiqi thought he might not answer, Su Yunling spoke up, "Did you ever... like someone else?"
His tone was full of probing.
