Kyoto kisses her

Chapter 124 Secret Relationship? Am I really that shameful?

Huo Jingcheng still retained a sliver of rationality. He placed his left hand on the off-white floral tablecloth, his index finger tapping lightly on the table. A hint of a smile lingered in his eyes as he asked, "What is it?"

Su Ruoyun subconsciously bit her lower lip. "I was thinking, could we not tell anyone we're dating yet?"

After she finished speaking, the room fell silent for a long while, and a heavy silence filled the air.

"...Who are you referring to as 'others'?" Huo Jingcheng remained calm, showing no change in emotion. His strong hand gripped Su Ruojun's slender waist, slowly tightening, and he asked in a calm and unhurried tone.

Su Ruoyun said, "Everyone else besides the two of us."

"Anyone else besides the two of us." Huo Jingcheng silently repeated her words, his meaning ambiguous, and smirked, "Trying to have a secret relationship with me?"

Hearing his unfriendly tone, Su Ruoyun felt uneasy and dared not look him in the eye. She kept her head down, occasionally touching her hair and picking at her manicure, as if she were very busy.

Huo Jingcheng rested his elbow on the table, raised his left hand slightly, took a tissue from the tissue box, and slowly wiped his hands. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, smiled, but there was no warmth in his eyes.

The cold, desolate laughter reached her ears.

That cold, desolate laugh, like the icy wind of December, seeped into her ears.

Su Ruoyun's eyelashes trembled slightly as she slowly lifted them, tentatively glancing at him. She saw that he looked extremely displeased, which basically meant, "I'm angry, come and coax me."

Seeing this, she raised her right hand and gently poked Huo Jingcheng's forearm with her index finger, her voice tinged with a hint of probing: "Are you angry?"

What I received was a cold, indifferent "No".

That means they're really angry.

Su Ruoyun stroked her chin, nodded to herself, and pondered how to coax him.

She could understand why Huo Jingcheng was angry. After all, they were dating innocently, but they had to hide it from the public.

only……

Su Ruoyun thought of her own brother and subconsciously shuddered. If Su Mingyan found out that she was with Huo Jingcheng, not to mention whether Huo Jingcheng could keep his leg, she probably wouldn't be able to keep hers.

While her thoughts were wandering, Su Ruoyun's hands didn't stop moving; she was still poking Huo Jingcheng's forearm. His arm had smooth lines, firm and powerful muscles, and felt surprisingly good to the touch. Every time she poked it, it would bounce back.

Once she recovered, Su Ruoyun felt as if she were Columbus discovering a new continent, finding it magical and fun. She completely forgot about her original plan to appease her boyfriend and had a great time.

Huo Jingcheng gritted his teeth in annoyance, and a cold snort escaped from his nose, "Am I not your proper boyfriend?"

"Yes."

Su Ruoyun's offhand answer softened Huo Jingcheng's expression slightly.

Su Ruoyun slowly added the next sentence, her eyes calm: "But now is not the right time to reveal our relationship."

A moment later, Huo Jingcheng's face darkened again. Fearing he might faint from anger, Su Ruoyun quickly and attentively raised her hand to pat his chest and help him catch his breath.

"Anyone who didn't know better would think that Miss Su had toyed with my feelings."

The words had barely settled in the air when Huo Jingcheng suddenly raised his hand, pressed down on her lower back, and forced her onto the dining table in a rather domineering posture.

With her back pressed against the cold, hard edge of the table, Su Ruoyun let out a soft "Eh," and clung tightly to Huo Jingcheng's neck, refusing to let go.

Seeing this, Huo Jingcheng pulled her closer to him and placed a large hand under Su Ruoyun's waist.

This time, Su Ruoyun rested on his large, well-defined hand, her back against the dining table. Huo Jingcheng's dark, deep pupils were fixed on her as he moved closer step by step until their breaths were almost indistinguishable, then he stopped, staring intently into her beautiful almond-shaped eyes.

After a long while, he turned his head slightly and his thin lips touched hers.

His thin lips pressed against the corner of her lips, lightly pecking at them intermittently. The man's voice was extremely husky and seductive: "Am I really that shameful, or do you want me to be your... secret lover?"

His voice was deliberately lowered, a deep, resonant tone, each word squeezed out from his lips, muffled and unclear.

Su Ruoyun was completely captivated by him. She hooked her right arm around his neck, trying to calm her racing heart, but she still wouldn't let go: "No, I just won't, um—"

Before she could finish speaking, Huo Jingcheng kissed her again, capturing her lips and kissing her without any hesitation.

They kissed until they were breathless, then Su Ruoyun patted his shoulder, telling him to let go of her.

Huo Jingcheng readily stepped back, his gaze deep and fixed on her, not looking away for even a moment.

Su Ruoyun hadn't changed out of her pajamas yet; she was wearing a silk nightgown, a black spaghetti strap style, made of simple fabric that barely reached her thighs.

Feeling flustered under his gaze, Su Ruoyun raised her hand to cover her chest, which was almost exposed, and returned to the previous topic: "Will you agree or not?"

As she spoke, Su Ruoyun saw a long, slender hand reach out towards her. Before she could react, the hand grabbed her wrist and easily pulled her right hand away from her chest, exposing her exposed body once again.

Before she could try to cover it up again, Huo Jingcheng spoke up: "Okay."

Two simple words.

Su Ruoyun paused, her right hand hovering in mid-air, a ripple of surprise in her eyes. She quickly made a promise: "Then it's settled."

After saying that, she straightened up slightly, preparing to get off Huo Jingcheng, but Huo Jingcheng forcefully pressed down on her legs and made a "six" gesture.

Su Ruoyun frowned, her face tense, unsure of what he meant. She then made a "six" gesture in his direction.

Then, the little finger of the "six" reached out to her and gently hooked its hook around her little finger.

Su Ruoyun then realized that it wasn't a "six," but a pinky promise.

After they made a pinky promise, she glanced at the wall clock, its pendulum swinging rhythmically back and forth, and said without any mercy, "It's getting late, you should go now."

It was almost midnight, and Aunt Li would be arriving soon. Aunt Li was the person Grandma Su had pointed out. Although she hadn't spoken to anyone in the compound over the years, she was still afraid that Aunt Li would see Huo Jingcheng.

Su Ruoyun raised her hand and placed the two white porcelain bowls into the wooden food box, then picked them up and stuffed them into Huo Jingcheng's hands, urging him hurriedly, "Hurry up, hurry up."

Huo Jingcheng was forced to accept the exquisite food box, stepped out of the restaurant, and reluctantly left, grabbing his suit jacket from the sofa with his other hand.

No sooner had Huo Jingcheng left than Aunt Li arrived.

Aunt Li entered the password, and when the door opened, she saw Su Ruoyun standing in the middle of the living room. "Miss Su."

Su Ruoyun turned her head, smiled at her, and greeted Aunt Li as well, but in her heart she was thinking that she mustn't let anyone see anything.

Aunt Li took off the bag she was carrying, bent down, and prepared to change her shoes, but then she noticed something was wrong.

Why are there extra shoes by the door?
