I'm pretending to be a fairy in kindergarten

Sudden silence.

Jiang Xueli felt embarrassed by the silence.

Lin Zhengran: "."

Jiang Xueli: "."

Jiang Xueli's movements as she touched her twin ponytails became slower and slower until she stopped.

"You, you should say something, Zhengran," she grumbled.

Lin Zhengran: "."

Jiang Xueli, her cheeks puffed out and her little fists clenched, suddenly shouted in embarrassment, "Say something, Zhengran! It's so awkward when you don't say a word after I've finished speaking!"

Lin Zhengran gave a forced, insincere smile.

Jiang Xueli was utterly shocked by this expression; if they weren't on the bed, she would have taken several steps back.

"What's with that expression... is that how you look at a pervert?!"

Lin Zhengran asked, "You actually believe something like this, even though it's not my dear Lily? Don't you think Fang Meng's words are ridiculous?"

"Yes, it does seem a bit far-fetched," she said deflated. "But I don't have any other good ideas besides this. I've tried many methods that didn't work. You're not willing to try to break the Mercury retrograde with me, are you?"

As she was talking, Jiang Xueli suddenly felt wronged. It's true that a girl in love is prone to emotional fluctuations. She looked at Lin Zhengran with her cute big eyes and said, "You idiot, all you know how to do is bully me."

Lin Zhengran couldn't help but laugh when he saw her like this, and reached out to tuck her pigtails in.

Jiang Xueli turned her head and snorted.

Lin Zhengran said indulgently, "I didn't say I was unwilling. Okay, then I'll give it a try with you."

She immediately cheered, but her proud nature prevented her from being too overtly happy. She simply suppressed a smile and asked, "Really? You're really willing to do such a childish thing with me?"

Lin Zhengran withdrew his hand and leaned against the headboard: "What can I do? I'm your boyfriend. I like you. And you could call it childish, I guess. I've done enough of these kinds of things since I was a kid."

No matter how you look at it, Lin Zhengran had the mentality of a twenty-seven or twenty-eight-year-old before he transmigrated, which means he had been doing childish things since he was a child.

Lily's heart raced when she heard someone say they liked her.

"What if it doesn't work?" she asked.

"Try it first and then talk."

"But you just said it was ridiculous," she said, without uttering a single word.

Lin Zhengran said impatiently, "Are you coming or not?!"

Jiang Xueli jumped in fright and immediately replied, "Coming! I'll go get the chocolate right now! Why are you being so fierce, like you're going to eat me?"

Without even getting out of bed, she half-sat up and grabbed the chocolate from the shelf next to her.

Lin Zhengran thought to himself that she had already bought it a long time ago.

So Jiang Xueli put down her guitar and slowly crawled onto the bed to Lin Zhengran's side.

She changed her legs to sit like a duck in front of him and unwrapped the chocolate in her hand.

The dark, sweet chocolate then emerged from the packaging.

Jiang Xueli asked, "How much do you think is best to eat? Just a little bit should be enough, right?"

Lin Zhengran thought to himself, "Since we're going to do this anyway, let's go all the way. I'll just chew up the whole piece of chocolate, and you can eat it all."

Jiang Xueli blushed and said, "I'll eat them all..."

"We've already tried it, why not eat it all? But this chocolate is a bit big, we'll have to eat it in several bites."

"Okay, fine."

At this moment, seeing Jiang Xueli's cautious appearance, Lin Zhengran had an idea and reached out to touch Jiang Xueli's thigh.

Jiang Xueli was terrified again, shrinking back like a kitten with its fur standing on end: "Zhengran, what are you doing! Why are you putting your hand on my leg!"

"Just as I expected." His eyes held a meaningful look.

Jiang Xueli's heart pounded like a drum at that look: "Guoranguo what?"

"You really do have ulterior motives."

"Nonsense!" she immediately retorted, "How could I have impure thoughts!"

"Then why are you so nervous? I put my hand on your leg and you reacted so strongly? Do you think we've just started dating? Do you think we're still a couple who haven't even held hands yet? We've slept together so many times. What's making you so nervous today?"

Jiang Xueli's thoughts were exposed, and her face turned as red as a hot kettle.

Lin Zhengran asked in a low voice, "You want it?"

Jiang Xueli bit her lip and turned her head halfway.

Lin Zhengran's hands didn't stop.

The other person frowned deeply.

Lin Zhengran reminded her, "We're at home, Wenwen, He Qing, and Jing Shi are all here. We might get caught." Jiang Xueli covered her face with the chocolate in her hand, "Idiot! Can you please take your hand off my leg? I didn't mean to steal any, I just..."

Lin Zhengran withdrew his hand.

When she actually took it back, she was still unhappy. Jiang Xueli glared at Lin Zhengran, embarrassed and annoyed, and said, "You actually took it when I asked you to."

Lin Zhengran knocked her on the head, asking for a beating.

"Are you sick? Didn't you say you wanted me to take it?"

Jiang Xueli cried out in pain, clutching her head, and replied:

"I...I really didn't have any intention of sneaking in. The competition is less than a month away, and I can't just think about sneaking in every time I practice with you alone, right? At most, I'm just worried that eating chocolate might excite me a little, and I'm afraid I won't be able to resist...Why don't you keep an eye on me?"

"Oh, so after all that talk, weren't you just thinking about sneaking away?" He revealed the truth.

Jiang Xueli retorted with her eyes tightly closed, "I already said no, no! I just wanted to break the Mercury retrograde!"

"Stop being so noisy, okay, I get what you mean. You mean I'm helping you get through Mercury retrograde while also keeping an eye on you to prevent you from getting excited, so you can practice guitar normally this afternoon, right?"

Jiang Xueli slowly nodded, her face flushed: "Yes, that's about it. I have music practice this afternoon, so I don't want to sneak away."

"Okay, here you go, give me the chocolate, I'll chew it first."

Jiang Xueli broke off a third of the chocolate in her hand and handed it to Lin Zhengran: "Here, you eat a third first."

Lin Zhengran took it and put it in his mouth.

The chocolate Lily bought was quite soft and easily crushed in just a couple of bites.

It seems to have a little bit of nut filling in the center, which is quite delicious.

He looked up to indicate that he had chewed it and could begin.

Jiang Xueli then slowly supported her upper body with both hands, leaned forward, and slowly brought her lips closer.

Their eyes were fixed on each other as they drew closer and closer.

Until their lips finally met in a slow kiss.

Lin Zhengran reached out and put his arm around Jiang Xueli's waist, so that she could get closer to him.

That's convenient.

Jiang Xueli obediently moved her body forward a little.

He opened his mouth and ate the chocolate that had already crumbled in Lin Zhengran's mouth.

The sensation of kissing made her fingers tighten slightly.

My breath felt several degrees hot.

The hand that wasn't holding the chocolate instinctively reached into Lin Zhengran's clothes.

Lin Zhengran caught him off guard and paused, saying, "Don't have any bad intentions. You said yourself that you wanted me to keep an eye on you."

Jiang Xueli's bright eyes were shy, but she still nodded.

She licked the chocolate off her lips.

"I've finished the first piece, and there are two more left. I think I'll eat them together; it's easier than I expected..."

"can."

Jiang Xueli put large pieces of chocolate to Lin Zhengran's mouth, and Lin Zhengran ate them in two or three bites.

Chew it thoroughly.

He gestured to Jiang Xueli again.

But Jiang Xueli couldn't take it anymore at this moment; eating chocolate felt more exciting than kissing.

My body was already very weak.

But she leaned in again and kissed Lin Zhengran's chocolate-flavored lips.

She tried to reach her other hand inside Lin Zhengran's clothes almost immediately, but Lin Zhengran grabbed it again.

To everyone's surprise, Jiang Xueli didn't even pretend this time: "Zhengran...don't grab my hand."

"Didn't you say you wanted me to keep an eye on you? Just to ward off Mercury retrograde?"

She slowly opened her eyes a crack, her eyes now brimming with tears: "I've changed my mind. I want you to lock the door. I can't practice music this afternoon. I...I've already done that..."

Lin Zhengran said helplessly, "You really are an idiot. If you say you're an idiot, I'll go lock the door."

"I'm an idiot... Lily's an idiot, hurry up and lock the door..."

Lin Zhengran reached out and locked the study door with a click. Jiang Xueli immediately put both hands inside his clothes and touched the muscles on Lin Zhengran's stomach.

He pressed Lin Zhengran down onto the bed.

"Zhengran...you have such a sweet tongue..." (End of Chapter)
