Chapter 850: No, You’re Still Too Young

The tips of Shen Li’s ears were burning.

She turned her head and tried to speak.

“Lu… Uh!”

Before she could say anything, his kiss had already shifted. His burning hot lips and tongue had moved from the side of her ear to her lips, slowly sucking and nibbling her.

He pressed close against her body, trapping her in this narrow and crowded space. He seemed to swallow up any room for struggle and was extremely powerful.

Yet, he continued to kiss her again and again and ask her… if she was okay?

Through the thin layer of their clothes, a boiling heat came from his body and spread to her skin, almost like sparks landing at the bottom of her heart.

The air heated up as the friction generated the heat.

Shen Li’s cheeks were red from his kiss, and her rationality gradually fell under the onslaught.

Her jacket had been removed, and only a white T-shirt remained on Shen Li’s upper body.

A faint chill suddenly came from her waist, causing her to tremble slightly.

His fingers were long and slender, with bony knuckles. There was a hint of coolness in his touch. The moment they touched her delicate waist, he increased his strength almost uncontrollably.

Shen Li suddenly came to her senses and hurriedly called out to him,”Lu Huaiyu!”

Lu Huaiyu paused his movements momentarily.

Then, he finally backed off a little, but he did not let go of her.

His deep, dark eyes looked at her and asked, “Don’t you like me?”

He was clearly asking in a light hearted way, as if he was just mumbling it casually without any intention of chasing her for an answer.

However, when Shen Li heard this, she suddenly felt something pinch her heart.

She shook her head, looked into his eyes, and whispered, “No, I like you.”

She leaned over and kissed a corner of his lips. Her voice was very soft as she said,”Lu Huaiyu, it’s you that I like the most.”

In the quiet room, her words were so clear that every word seemed to be branded on her heart.

Her wrist struggled.

Lu Huaiyu finally let go of her hand and looked at her with a deep, intense look.

Shen Li raised her arm and wrapped it around his neck.

He grabbed her slender waist with one hand and lowered his head slightly, pressing it against her forehead.

He did not say anything, only his burning hot breath could be felt.

She gently coaxed him.

“Just wait, okay?”

Lu Huaiyu was obviously not in the right frame of mind, so she would have to coax him first.

She rubbed her neck against his and said softly, “I just came back, so I’m a little tired.”

After a while, she heard Lu Huaiyu whisper, “Okay.”

Then, he lifted her up and cradled her in his arms.

Her baseball cap fell off, and her long wavy hair fell down as it swayed gently.

Lu Huaiyu placed her on the bed with his knees pressed against the edge of the bed.

Seeing her black hair spread out, his fingers curled slightly.

“Why is your hair so long?”

Shen Li did not pay attention to his words.

She tugged on his hand and said,”Are you coming to sleep with me?”

Lu Huaiyu stared at her for a few seconds as the corners of his lips curved into a smile.

“Okay.”

She was so well-behaved.

He lifted the quilt and lay down beside her.

Shen Li leaned over and wrapped her arms around his lean waist.

Lu Huaiyu cupped her chin and kissed her.

After a while, he released her and held her in his arms.

The room became quiet again.

In the darkness, Shen Li leaned into his arms, without falling asleep.

Probably after being tormented by the nightmare earlier, he fell asleep soon after holding her in his arms.

It was not until she heard his regular breathing that Shen Li finally lifted her head from his arms.

Her brows gradually furrowed.

Lu Huaiyu and this state that he was in…

She began to recall what had just happened in her mind.

Under normal circumstances, Lu Huaiyu would have never asked such a question so suddenly.

The way he had looked at her at that time was as if he was extremely worried that she would leave.

Because he had been so extremely uneasy, he had also been extremely eager.

Was he… afraid that she would leave?

But why was he suddenly so worried?

Shen Li recalled the time when they had been at Yunding Fenghua.

He had behaved differently from his usual self.

The phone call from Gu Tinglan… Was it related to this?

A million guesses flashed through Shen Li’s mind, but she could not find a definite answer.

In the end, she decided not to think about it anymore and leaned further into his arms.

She kissed his chin gently. Seeming to sense something, Lu Huaiyu’s arms held her even tighter.

“Lu Huaiyu.”

She called his name softly.

‘I won’t ever leave you anyway.

‘So, it doesn’t matter whether I understand everything clearly or not.’

…

When Lu Huaiyu woke up again, he could feel someone in his arms before he even opened his eyes.

His consciousness gradually returned.

Wafting around the tip of his nose was a familiar sweet and soft fragrance, and under the palm of his hand was warm skin.

He opened his eyes.

It was very dark in the room and he could barely see anything.

However, she was indeed in his arms.

He closed his eyes and hugged her even tighter. At the same time, he lowered his head to kiss her forehead.

Shen Li had been sleeping very lightly, so she woke up the moment he kissed her.

“Second Brother?”

She murmured.

Lu Huaiyu responded in a low voice and turned on the bedside night light.

As the dim light shone down, his vision gradually became clear.

Shen Li raised her head.

“Second Brother, don’t you want to sleep anymore?”

Lu Huaiyu turned around to look at her. Seeing that peach-blossom shaped eyes were still moist with sleepiness, he cupped her little face and said with a smile,”Isn’t Ah Li afraid of the dark?”

Shen Li was slightly stunned. She had not expected him to still be thinking about this.

She shook her head.

“It’s okay because I’m with Second Brother.”

Lu Huaiyu propped himself up with his elbow and turned to look at her. Only then did he remember something.

“Didn’t you go to watch the rehearsal? When did you come back?”

Shen Li’s heart skipped a beat.

She looked at him carefully, not wanting to miss a single expression on his face.

However, he remained very natural.

What he had said was really just a casual question.

He had not mentioned anything about what had just happened earlier.

She asked, “Second Brother… Don’t you remember?”

Lu Huaiyu raised his eyebrows.

“Huh?”

Shen Li paused and said, “I’ve been back for a while.”

Lu Huaiyu smiled and said, “It seems that rehearsal was quite tiring. It even caused you to return to the wrong room, huh?”

Shen Li felt as if something was pressing on her heart.

She did not say anything.

Lu Huaiyu suddenly realized something and turned around to look at the half-open door.

“Ah Li, how did you get in here?”

Shen Li said, “… I asked the front desk for Second Brother’s room key card.”

Lu Huaiyu understood and then smiled.

“If I had known that Ah Li wanted to come over, I would have given you a room key card earlier.”

Shen Li looked at his handsome face, but felt like something was stirring in her heart.

There was something that she wanted to verify.

In the next moment, she suddenly got up, pressed against Lu Huaiyu’s chest, and rolled over onto his body.

Under the light, she carefully observed his current expression.

“Lu Huaiyu.”

She fixed her gaze upon him. There were so many words stuck in her throat, but when her eyes met his gaze, she did not know where to begin.

Lu Huaiyu held her waist with one hand, and their eyes met.

The atmosphere became subtle.

The color of his eyes gradually darkened, and his thin lips curled into a beautiful arc.

“Ah Li.”

They were very close to each other, so close that they could almost smell each other’s breath.

So even though his voice was extremely low and soft, she still heard it.

There was a faint smile on his face, a bit like he was teasing her but also like he was coaxing her.

“No, you’re still too young.”
