Chapter 240: Chapter 240: Oh no, I’m getting lovesick
Sang Ning once again fell into deep despair.
Alright, turns out she really is the only true pauper here!
The kind of experience that requires unjustified spending, she’d rather forego it. Step by step, Sang Ning shuffled her way outside.
Suddenly, she collided into a solid chest.
Just as she was about to say sorry, a deep, magnetic voice sounded from above her head first: "Sis, why not feel mine? My muscles are free to touch, as long as you want."
Sang Ning chuckled disdainfully, oh, a new type of scam, huh?
Pretend to let her try it for free, only to pressure her into paying after she gets hooked, and not let her go unless she forks over the money—something like that.
"Do you see any part of my face that says ’sucker’?" Sang Ning suddenly raised her head.
The moment her eyes met the gaze behind the mask, Sang Ning’s heart skipped a beat.
Wait... damn it, why does this person feel so familiar?
The man’s pupils were like ink, and under the reflections of the neon lights, his unfathomable gaze transformed into something intensely dangerous.
The eyes behind the silver wolf mask slightly narrowed, as though a storm was brewing.
"Sis, what are you still hesitating about? Free meat delivered to your door, are you not going to eat?"
While Sang Ning was dumbfounded, the man seized her hand and pressed it firmly onto his solid chest. "How is it? Satisfied with the feel?"
Who exactly is this person? Why does he feel so familiar? Have they met somewhere before?
Sang Ning was still lost in her thoughts—even as her hand, now guided by the man, had touched his chest, she felt no real sense of it.
It wasn’t until the man lifted one side of his shirt and pressed her hand directly onto his bare skin that Sang Ning snapped back to her senses with a sharp shudder.
"Li Juezhou!" Sang Ning yanked her hand back abruptly, as if she’d been burned.
Damn it, this is beyond belief!
Sang Ning felt as if she’d been caught cheating by the rightful spouse. For a moment, guilt overwhelmed her, and she didn’t know how to face Li Juezhou. She turned to flee but was swiftly grabbed by the nape and pulled back by him.
"Xiao Li, that’s your first warning. If you dare treat me so rough again, I won’t be so courteous!"
Sang Ning spun around, caught Li Juezhou’s arm, and twisted her body downward, ending up standing face-to-face with him again.
Playing on Sang Ning’s lingering guilt towards him, Li Juezhou refrained from striking back, instead clasping both of her hands behind her.
"Sangsang, is the flower at home not as fragrant as the wild ones? I’m no worse than these others, so why would you rather reach beyond instead of teasing me?" Li Juezhou leaned down, his lips brushing against Sang Ning’s ear.
At such a close distance, the warm breath spilling out seemed like a clever serpent snaking its way into her ear.
A tingling sensation spread from her ear to her entire body in an instant, causing Sang Ning’s body to tremble involuntarily. Somewhere deep in her heart seemed to collapse quietly, yet she remained unaware of it.
"I wouldn’t know if the homegrown flower is fragrant, I’ve never tasted it," Sang Ning decided to play dumb and shameless, since Li Juezhou hadn’t criticized her morals just yet.
"Is that so?" Li Juezhou’s smile vanished, his eyes darkened deeply, an air of danger emanating fiercely.
Li Juezhou had always been cautious about Sang Ning’s feelings; every action was carried out with her comfort in mind.
He never crossed the line—even something as simple as holding hands required her agreement before he dared to proceed.
But now, his gaze was locked firmly on Sang Ning’s flushed lips, and his brain became consumed by the desire to possess her.
Li Juezhou’s tightly held restraint finally snapped. Even if Sang Ning were to beat him to death, he was determined to go for it!
"Mm—"
The sudden kiss landed without warning, and Sang Ning widened her eyes in horror, letting out a faint whimper that was quickly swallowed by the deafening music in the dance floor.
Sang Ning found it strange; Li Juezhou’s kiss seemed to drain all her strength.
Her mind went blank, her entire focus was on the sensation of her lips.
The soft, moist touch was one she had never experienced before.
Sang Ning suddenly felt like crying. Damn it, turns out being smitten is real!
Just one kiss from Li Juezhou, and her legs had already gone weak!
Li Juezhou had intended to give Sang Ning a small lesson, but when his lips met hers, he couldn’t bring himself to let go.
His large hand slowly slid down, clutching Sang Ning by the waist.
Feeling her body suddenly go soft, he decisively lifted her by the hips, raising her off the ground before him, biting gently to deepen the kiss.
Sang Ning, with no experience in kissing, was utterly at a loss being kissed for the first time.
Aside from closing her eyes, there didn’t seem to be a better way to respond.
Sang Ning slowly closed her eyes; her lashes trembled lightly.
Her lack of resistance gave Li Juezhou more confidence to act unabashedly. One hand supported her to ensure she wouldn’t fall, while the other gripped her head tightly, the kiss growing wilder and more intense...
On the dance floor, kissing couples were everywhere, and Li Juezhou and Sang Ning’s passionate kiss hardly drew any undue attention.
This was also Li Juezhou’s first kiss; he had no experience but instead relied entirely on primal desire, bit by bit claiming all of Sang Ning’s sweetness.
The kiss dragged on for several minutes until Li Juezhou’s mind slowly regained some shred of clarity. Reluctantly, he finally released Sang Ning.
Li Juezhou carefully put Sang Ning back onto the ground, leaned his forehead against hers, and gasped for air as he confessed, "Sangsang, I’ve kissed you. If you want to hit me, you can do it now."
Sang Ning raised her hand, her fingertip brushing her lips as she repeatedly stroked them.
She... She had just been kissed, hadn’t she?
Li Juezhou continued apologizing by her ear, admitting his earlier impulsiveness and stating he was willing to pay whatever price for it.
Price? What price?
Sang Ning was still lost in the aftermath of the kiss. So, this is what kissing feels like?
Your body turns soft, adrenaline surges, heat spreads throughout, and when Li Juezhou kissed her so fiercely, she even felt her legs trembling weakly.
Not good, not good—she was turning into one of those infatuated fools!
Sang Ning shook her head forcefully, willing herself to snap out of it. No matter what, she couldn’t let a man lead her by the nose.
Summoning all her willpower to regain the strength in her body, Sang Ning exerted force to shove Li Juezhou away, her expression neutral as she sized him up.
Sang Ning deliberately maintained a certain distance from Li Juezhou. Li Juezhou felt pierced by her cold attitude.
It’s over—looks like he’d thoroughly offended her today!
Li Juezhou suddenly regretted his actions. After waiting patiently for Sang Ning for so long, why couldn’t he restrain even one impulsive moment?
He truly deserved this!
Li Juezhou immediately chose to apologize first: "Sangsang, I—"
Before he could finish the word "sorry," Sang Ning suddenly surged forward, stood on her toes, and kissed him.
This time, the one whose eyes widened in shock was Li Juezhou.
