I'm a senior in high school, and the system says I'm going on a blind date with my childho

Chapter 239 Go lie down on the bed for a while
Time seemed to have lost its measure, leaving only the disordered pounding in my chest.

After an unknown amount of time, the two finally separated.

A sound with a heavy nasal tone escaped from Li Zhiwei's slightly parted lips.

She gasped for air as if she had exhausted all her oxygen.

When Li Zhi met Shen Yuan's gaze, he buried his burning, numb cheeks deep into Shen Yuan's warm neck. His tightly closed eyelashes were still trembling violently, revealing the turbulent emotions that had not yet subsided.

The arm that was clinging to his shoulder and neck was a little weak, and the strength supporting her body was almost entirely due to Shen Yuan's arm that was still firmly wrapped around her waist.

Shen Yuan's chest heaved violently, his hot breath spraying onto Li Zhi's soft hair.

He subconsciously turned his head slightly, his chin gently brushing against the girl's smooth forehead. The soft touch lingering on her lips and her unique sweet scent filled his chest with an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and excitement.

The room was filled with a breathless silence.

Sangeng and Naonao on the bed tilted their little heads, their round eyes staring unblinkingly at their two owners' reddened ears and their close-knit bodies, letting out a few soft, questioning meows.

In the end, it was Li Zhixian who made a move.

She gently shook her head, which was buried in Shen Yuan's neck, and her hair brushed against his burning skin, bringing a slight tickle.

A muffled accusation, tinged with utter embarrassment, came from the crook of Shen Yuan's neck once more.

"idiot..."

That voice was soft and sweet, still carrying the moisture from being kissed, where was the sharpness of his usual voice?
It was exactly like a small animal whose fur had been completely ruffled and could only whimper helplessly.

Shen Yuan let out a response filled with laughter and reverence.

He loosened his grip on her waist slightly, but didn't pull back, just to let her lean on him more comfortably, feeling her rapid yet affectionate breaths, as if she had just survived a disaster.

The warmth of the first kiss silently spreads and settles in the quiet intimacy after the lips part.

A moment later, the boy lowered his head slightly, his gaze as warm as the sun, falling on the fluffy head in the crook of his neck.

As the movements in his arms subsided, Shen Yuan gently rubbed his chin against Li Zhi's head and coaxed in a low voice, "Li Bao?"

Li Zhi paused slightly, as if hesitating.

After a moment, the deeply buried face finally lifted slowly.

Her face, flushed with the rosy glow of the sunset, held a moist blush, and her long eyelashes fluttered like butterfly wings, slowly lifting upwards.

Her wet eyes met Shen Yuan's deep pupils—which clearly reflected her current appearance, filled with lingering tenderness and a hint of satisfied pride, shining brightly.

The air became viscous again.

The lingering sensation on her lips seemed to be rekindled by that gaze, causing Li Zhi's heart to skip a beat. She was about to look away...

Just then, a soft, meowing sound, full of curiosity, clearly entered my ears.

Sangeng and Naonao had somehow arrived at the edge of the bed, tilting their little heads, their four round, unblinking cat eyes staring intently at the two of them.

That gaze was pure yet inquisitive, as if trying to thoroughly understand the wonderful interaction between Mom and Dad just now.

Li Zhi's breath caught in his throat!
boom--!
Like a cat whose tail has been stepped on—

No, it's even worse than that!

A heat wave, a hundred times more intense than when their lips and tongues were entwined, shot from the soles of their feet straight to the top of their heads with a loud "boom"!

The blush that hadn't yet faded from the girl's face instantly intensified, spreading from her cheeks all the way down to her neck, almost as if it were steaming.

She shrank back into Shen Yuan's arms in a flash.

"Shen, Yuan——!!!"

Li Zhi's voice suddenly rose, filled with immense embarrassment at being "watched," and almost cracked.

She stretched out her finger, trembling, and pointed to the two pairs of clear, innocent eyes beside the bed, eyes filled with the question marks of "curious babies".

"You!!! You, you, you... Look what you've done!!"

The beautiful girl was both embarrassed and anxious, her words tumbling out incoherently, her glare of shame and anger practically piercing through Shen Yuan: "It's all because of you... Seran the idiot!! Look at you! You've corrupted even the little kitten!!"

She pointed to Sangeng and Naonao's pure and innocent eyes.

The girl felt as if her own child had witnessed an indescribable live broadcast of that gaze.

—Although the two kittens might just be wondering why their parents are sticking together and not moving, and why their breathing is so heavy.

"They! They're all watching!!"

Li Zhi stomped his foot angrily, as if this humiliating scene was entirely caused by Shen Yuan, this "bad example."

Her wide eyes were brimming with tears, as if she were about to burst into tears of shame and indignation at any moment.

The burning memory of her lips still lingered, and now, being interrogated by the gaze of her innocent little kitten, the beautiful girl felt like she was about to burst into flames!

Shen Yuan snapped out of his daze, looked at the adorable, flustered Li Bao in front of him, and then glanced down at San Geng and Nao Nao, who were still completely clueless by the bedside.

"puff……"

A low, suppressed laugh finally escaped from Shen Yuan's throat.

The laughter contained a hint of satisfaction at finally getting what he wanted, but more so, it was a mixture of affection and playful teasing towards his girlfriend's shy yet charmingly naive demeanor as she tried to shift the blame.

He tightened his arms around Li Zhi's waist, deliberately lowered his head and rubbed against her burning earlobe, coaxing her in a teasing whisper.

"Li Bao~ What's the panic?"

He chuckled softly, deliberately drawing out the last syllable, his gaze sweeping over the two pairs of round cat eyes beside the bed.

"It's just a kitten, what does it know about 'leading people astray' or not?"

Shen Yuan's lips curled into a wicked smile, a smile that was reflected in Li Zhi's wide, angry eyes.

"They're probably just curious...why Mom and Dad are suddenly hugging and 'kissing' each other so warmly, they can't even breathe properly~"

"Sand dollar!"

Li Zhi was instantly mortified, the beautiful girl's shrill voice completely ruined her composure, and her face flushed red as if it were about to bleed.

Unable to bear the double torment of being "watched" and teased any longer, she suddenly buried her head and hit Shen Yuan hard with her hand.

The force wasn't great; it was purely out of anger. Then, a muffled whimper, like someone whose tail had been stepped on, came out—a mixture of shame, annoyance, and a hint of coquetry.

"Shut up, Thran!"

"...Hmph! I...I don't want to talk to you anymore!"

The pretty girl blushed and muttered angrily, as if she could block out everything that had just happened and Shen Yuan's annoying teasing.

She clutched at Shen Yuan's clothes, burying her face even deeper into the soft folds of his sweater, leaving only her bright red ear tip showing.

Sangeng and Naonao, who were by the bedside, seemed to have lost the fun of observing. They let out a soft "meow" and slowly strolled back to the center of the bed to continue their winter nap.

Shen Yuan felt Li Zhi's ostrich-like posture of burying her head and not moving in his arms, and the satisfied pleasure in his chest was mixed with a few inseparable affections.

“Li Bao…”

Seeing that Li Zhi only nuzzled more forcefully in his arms in protest, Shen Yuan's smile deepened.

He gently rubbed her spine through her cashmere sweater with his calloused fingertips, like stroking a cat with its fur standing on end.

"Alright, alright, what's there to be shy about?"

Shen Yuan lowered his voice even further, with a touch of lazy teasing, and clearly reassured her.

"The cats have all left... They've gone to their nests to catch up on their sleep, they don't have time to care about our kisses..."

"Hey!" Li Zhi, who was buried in his arms, immediately let out a muffled groan of shame and indignation, and pinched his waist as a warning.

Shen Yuan, sensing the situation, changed his tune and continued to coax with a muffled chuckle, "Okay, okay, they won't look at us anymore! They really won't! Shall we continue... looking at the test paper? Hmm?"

As he spoke, he gently patted Li Zhi's back, which had clearly relaxed a bit but still refused to lift up.

The boy's gaze lingered affectionately on her flushed neck and the exposed skin of her neck.

—That was his masterpiece.

The moment Shen Yuan finished speaking, Li Zhi suddenly lifted her head from his embrace.

The girl's cheeks were still flushed, and her wet eyes were wide open, clearly burning with a mixture of shame and indignation in her accusation.

"Do...do your homework?!"

The girl's voice suddenly rose, and her fingertips stabbed hard at the red mark on Shen Yuan's neck that she had personally branded.

"Thran! Who can concentrate on this exam now! My... my first kiss!!"

The beautiful girl's voice was filled with unbelievable accusations and immense grievances. Her pretty eyes instantly became even more misty, as if she was about to cry from anger at his heartlessness.

"You idiot! You've only just... you're already thinking about homework?! I haven't even had a proper first kiss yet!!"

When Li Zhi mentioned the word "first kiss," her voice was soft and trembling, and shyness almost burst from her head.

She looked at the guy who had just been kissing her and breathing heavily, and now he was acting as if nothing had happened, even casually bringing up that damned exam paper!
A surge of anger at being betrayed, mixed with intense shame and indignation, rushed into my heart.

Shen Yuan was stunned for a moment, clearly not expecting his words "look at the exam paper" to trigger such a big reaction. He then immediately understood the delicate, sensitive and aggrieved feelings of the person in his arms at that moment.

Looking into her tearful, accusing eyes, his heart melted instantly, and a subtle sense of guilt rose within him.

The boy quickly tightened his arms around the ruffled little beast and pressed it closer to his chest.

"No, Li Bao, I..."

However, before he could finish speaking, Li Zhi, in his rage, gave him no chance to explain.

"Shen Yuan! Do you have any conscience?!"

Li Zhi interrupted him angrily, her voice trembling with a sob, and the hand that had been clinging to his shoulder instantly turned into a small fist, which she pounded on his solid chest in a fit of rage.

One blow, two blows... while pounding and accusing.

"Thran the idiot! You got what you wanted and now you're complaining! You kissed me and now you want to do your homework! You're a heartless capitalist! You've exploited my feelings and now you want to exploit my brain! You heartless, stinking idiot!!"

Each punch was accompanied by an accusation; Li Zhi firmly pinned the accusation of "heartlessness" on Shen Yuan's head.

That spoiled force felt more like a tickle to Shen Yuan. He suppressed a laugh and let her vent.

Just as Li Zhi was about to unleash another punch and her red lips parted slightly in preparation for the next round of accusations, a sly glint flashed in Shen Yuan's eyes.

His smiling eyes suddenly turned serious, and the arm around her waist tightened its grip.

At the same time, without any warning, he suddenly lowered his head.

His burning lips precisely silenced the girl's incessantly chattering mouth, which was about to utter the word "idiot"!

"Well……?!"

All of Li Zhi's accusations and anger were abruptly silenced by this sudden attack, turning into a short, startled groan that caught between their tightly pressed lips.

Her beautiful eyes widened instantly, and Shen Yuan's suddenly enlarged eyebrows and eyes were clearly reflected in her pupils.

The girl's small fist was raised in mid-air, completely frozen.

My mind went blank; I even forgot to be angry, only the domineering yet familiar warm touch on my lips remained.

The accusations that had just been made deflated like a balloon punctured by a needle, leaving only pure astonishment and a heartbeat disordered from the momentary loss of breath and the right to speak.

This kiss came too quickly, and felt completely different from the first one.

Shen Yuan's intrusion was brief but forceful, instantly sweeping away the remaining anger and grievances, replacing them with a suffocating emptiness.

Zhiju's arm, which had been hanging limply in mid-air, finally clung softly to the corner of the sweater beside him.

The legs that had been supporting her body and trying to create distance lost their strength, and her whole body slumped down uncontrollably, as if all her bones had been removed.

Only Shen Yuan's strong arm held her firmly, locking her even deeper into his embrace.

The girl's faint sobs were completely silenced, replaced by broken and burning breaths.

The astonishment in her wide eyes faded, and her long eyelashes trembled slightly as if wet with dew before obediently and slowly drooping down.

The girl felt her mind go blank, she even forgot to be angry, only that familiar warm touch remained.

Her back trembled slightly in the boy's strong arms, like a small boat suddenly caught in a whirlpool.

She could only let him tighten his grip on her, letting the touch gradually erase all the unevenness, leaving only a burning mark deep in her senses.

As consciousness dissipated, the little beast, which had been puffing up its fur and bristling with anger, completely turned into a pool of water.

The girl leaned softly against his chest, her breaths mingling with hers, revealing her fragile yet completely surrendered heartbeat.

A moment later, the two slowly separated, leaving behind a trace of ambiguity.

The oxygen in the room seemed to begin flowing again at that moment, mixed with the heavy, intermittent breathing of the two people.

Li Zhi leaned weakly against Shen Yuan's chest, gasping for the missing air, her cheeks flushed as if stained with rouge.

Her moist lips were slightly swollen and glistening with moisture. Her long eyelashes were covered with tiny droplets of water. Her eyes were half-open, revealing a hazy and shy, dreamy look, as if she had not yet fully recovered from that intense and domineering kiss.

Shen Yuan looked down at the person in his arms. The burning light in those deep eyes had not completely faded, leaving only an intense tenderness and undisguised satisfaction.

His Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and his fingertips, with an almost greedy tenderness, gently stroked Li Zhiwei's slightly hot lips, wiping away the glistening moisture.

The boy's burning gaze traced her flushed cheeks and dazed eyes, and an uncontrollable smile curved his lips.

Shen Yuan's voice was low and deep, like a whisper, and his warm breath brushed against Li Zhi's sensitive earlobe.

"Are you still angry now, Li Bao...?"

The person in his arms let out a barely audible hum, like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on and whose claws had been withdrawn.

She gave Shen Yuan's firm chest a symbolic pinch with her fingertips, slightly annoyed, the force so weak it had no power whatsoever.

"Who...who's angry...Thran..."

The last syllable of the sound lingered and was murky, mingling with the cool fabric of Shen Yuan's sweater, carrying a distinctly petulant air.

As if embarrassed by her own weak rebuttal, the girl decisively buried her burning cheeks even more forcefully in the familiar warmth of his neck.

The girl's cheek brushed against his slightly burning skin, and she nudged him gently, muffledly and as if venting her anger.

But her body involuntarily nestled tighter into his firm embrace, as if that were the only safe haven that could shield her from all embarrassment and helplessness.

Shen Yuan felt the soft strength of the person in his arms and their burning cheeks, and a low chuckle escaped his throat.

He tilted his head and rubbed his chin against the top of her warm hair, then gently supported her slightly hunched back with his palm.

"Okay——"

The boy, in a lazy tone, breathed warmly against her flushed earlobe: "Aren't your legs sore from standing here? Hmm?"

He bent slightly, lowering himself to touch Li Zhiguang's smooth forehead, his nose brushing lightly against her trembling eyelashes, his voice laced with a hint of coaxing.

"Go lie down on the bed for a while?"

He glanced at the fluffy blanket behind him and the two cats curled up in fur balls, then deliberately pinched a small patch of reddened skin on the back of Li Zhi's neck.

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Zhi, who had been burying his face in the crook of his neck like a startled rabbit, suddenly sat up straight.

The girl stared at him with a mixture of shame and indignation, her beautiful eyes rolling back dramatically, piercing through his feigned concern.

"Humph!"

A crisp, sharp rebuke, laced with intense disdain, rang out as the beautiful girl's snow-white front teeth nearly bit her pink lower lip.

The next second, her slender index finger stabbed Shen Yuan in the center of his chest without mercy, the force neither too light nor too heavy, but full of accusation.

"You scoundrel! Seran, you're full of wicked thoughts!"

Li Zhi's voice was crisp and bright, each word like a small hammer striking the sticky air between the two.

She tapped his fingertip again, as if to expose his thoughts: "Do you think I'm stupid?! Don't try that on me! I'll poke you to death, you ungrateful idiot! 'Lie down for a bit'?!"

She raised her chin, her cheeks still flushed, but the watery light in her eyes was forcibly suppressed, replaced by a sharp, all-seeing glint.

This pushover... after the kiss, he's already thinking of taking her to bed?!

Their ulterior motives couldn't be more obvious!

Shen Yuan was amused by her flustered appearance.

Instead of dodging, the boy grabbed Li Zhi's stabbing finger, his long, strong fingers sliding between her fingers and holding it tightly.

The warm palm, with an irresistible force, firmly pressed Li Zhi's hand against his heart.

“Li Bao…”

Shen Yuan lowered his head, his burning gaze fixed on her face as if it were a physical object. A knowing yet playful smirk spread across his lips, and his voice was low and mischievous: "Why did you poke me so hard? Feeling guilty?"

Li Zhi glared at him: "Feeling guilty my foot!"

"Shh-"

Shen Yuan gently pressed his fingers against her lips, interrupting her words. Then he leaned down and approached her blushing earlobe, each word drilling into her mind like an electric current.

"Who are you calling scheming? I think your little head is just full of junk."

Shen Yuan's voice carried an undeniable sarcasm as he placed his palm on her burning nape, his fingertips gently caressing her delicate skin, his gaze sweeping over her suddenly stiffened body.

"I was thinking that someone could barely stand, but it turns out that what was in that person's mind was..."

Li Zhi's breath caught in her throat, and the blush on her face burned all the way to the roots of her neck! The sensation of being kissed, the embarrassment of being watched by the cat, and the "mental drama" that he had so blatantly exposed all mixed together, making her feel like a firecracker that had been lit, almost exploding on the spot.

The beautiful girl was filled with shame and indignation. She shook off his hand, but unexpectedly her legs gave way and she staggered backward!

"what!!"

With a short gasp, Shen Yuan reached out and pulled her steadily back into his arms.

Their noses were almost touching, and Shen Yuan could clearly see the overwhelming shame and anger surging in Li Zhishui's eyes.

He let out a muffled chuckle, raised his hand and pinched her burning hot earlobe, his face beaming with smug satisfaction at catching her red-handed.

"Admit it, Li Bao," the boy lowered his voice, his breath brushing against her trembling eyelashes, as if declaring the ultimate truth, "your little brain is just full of bubbling garbage right now!"

The only sound in the room was the low hum of the air conditioner. Sangeng and Naonao rolled over, their fluffy tails sweeping lazily across the plush carpet.

"Shen! Yuan!" Li Zhi's sharp shout was like a shard of ice tempered by fire, instantly shattering the gentle laughter.

She suddenly raised her head, her eyes, burning with extreme shame and indignation, fixed on Shen Yuan's hateful smiling face.

A brief silence fell over the room, broken only by Li Zhi's breathless, low-pitched accusations and the low hum of the air conditioner.

Sangeng and Naonao seemed startled by their mother's sudden outburst, stopping their grooming and tilting their heads to look at their two owners again.

"Admit my ass! Seran the bastard!"

Li Zhi's voice was crisp and bright, filled with utter disgust. Without hesitation, she tightened her grip on Shen Yuan's waist again, pinching the soft flesh hard.

"I think you're the one deliberately misleading people! You have ulterior motives! You're despicable! You're vile!"

With each word she uttered, she increased the force of her blows, as if she were trying to twist all her shame and anger into them.

"Who's losing their balance?!"

Li Zhi stiffened his neck, forced himself to remain calm, and straightened his back, trying to shift his weight away from Shen Yuan's arms a little.

The movement, however, was slightly shaky due to the weakness in his legs, making it seem more like an attempt to cover up the truth.

"I... I couldn't stand up because you hugged me too tightly and my legs went numb! Even an idiot knows that! But you! You just have to talk nonsense!"

Li Zhi's beautiful big eyes widened as she stared intently at Shen Yuan.

"Look at your own neck! You idiot! Who was that just now?! Huh?! Who's pushing their luck!"

"Who is it now! Like a dog! They bit someone's neck until it was red! And now they're acting like a righteous person lecturing me?!"

As the girl spoke, her eyes unconsciously swept over the "evidence" on Shen Yuan's neck, and her cheeks flushed even more, her small earlobes turning bright red.

Hmm...it seems like they've all been eaten...

She even bit me...

"I think you, Shen Yuan, are nothing but the biggest, biggest, biggest piece of trash! You pretentious big Seran!"

Li Zhi was panting, her pink lips slightly parted.

Clearly, this rapid and relentless barrage of attacks had taken a toll on her energy, but she still refused to lose in terms of momentum, her shimmering eyes burning with flames of shame and indignation.

A brief silence fell over the room, broken only by Li Zhi's breathless, low-pitched accusations and the low hum of the air conditioner.

Sangeng and Naonao seemed startled by their mother's sudden outburst, stopping their grooming and tilting their heads to look at their parents again.

Shen Yuan looked at her cheeks, which were flushed with excitement, and her eyes, which were trying to appear fierce but couldn't hide the tears welling up in them. His Adam's apple bobbed.

He slowly tightened his arms, which were not completely loose to begin with, and pulled her back into his embrace to keep her steady and prevent her from really collapsing.

This time the action was much slower, carrying a cautious and reassuring tone.

Instead of immediately refuting the girl's accusation, he gently rested his chin on the top of her head.

A low chuckle, transmitted clearly through the vibrations of his chest, reached Li Zhi.

"Good good..."

Shen Yuan's voice carried a hint of helpless indulgence.

"I am Seran, the source of waste, the big idiot, Young Master Li, calm down?"

He turned his head, his lips almost brushing against Li Zhi's burning earlobe, and asked in a low, breathy voice.

"So, this young master Li, who's so angry he can barely stand... shall we... go lie down on the bed for a while and warm our feet?"

Li Zhi's body stiffened, and he was about to subconsciously refute, but then he stopped.

She looked up and met Shen Yuan's eyes, which were bright and smiling.

She wanted to stubbornly resist, but the strength drained by that intense first kiss and the lingering tingling sensation deep within her body were screaming for help.

She opened her mouth, but the words "I'm not going!" stuck in her throat and she ultimately didn't say them.

My gaze involuntarily drifted to the bed covered with a fluffy blanket. Seeing Sangeng and Naonao curled up comfortably again, my heart skipped a beat in my chest.

The beautiful girl sucked hard, then abruptly turned her face away from Shen Yuan's burning gaze, leaving him only with a flushed profile and trembling eyelashes.

She raised her hand, not to push him away, but to pinch Shen Yuan's arm that was wrapped around her hard as if venting her anger, and then let out a heavy snort.

"Hmph! I...I don't want to lie down with you for a while! I...I'm going to go play with the kitten!"

Li Zhi's voice still carried a heavy nasal tone, but it no longer rose in pitch; it was squeezed out from between his lips in a muffled manner.

As he finished speaking, he also "accidentally" stepped on Shen Yuan's toe as an additional punishment.

"You...you stay away! Stop being so clingy!"

Although Li Zhi said that, her body relaxed slightly, and she acquiesced to being half-carried and moved by him, eventually being led to the bed that looked incredibly warm and comfortable.

Shen Yuan's smile deepened silently as he felt the fluffy little cat in his arms pretending to be fierce even though it had clearly compromised, and the tiny force that was "pushing" him away.

He cooperated by loosening his embrace slightly, but didn't actually let go; he simply carefully protected her as she moved.

Li Zhi was led to the bedside, and nimbly slipped out of Shen Yuan's half-encircled arms.

The girl deftly kicked off her slippers and fell backward onto the bed covered with a thick blanket with a "thud".

The soft mattress supported her supple body, causing her to sink into a slight curve.

Almost the instant he landed, Li Zhi immediately curled up his legs.

Like a shrimp in defensive posture, it quickly scooted its body towards the inside of the bed, trying to create as much distance as possible between itself and Shen Yuan by the bedside.

The girl's back was pressed tightly against the soft pillow, and her eyes, still damp with tears, were like those of a most alert little animal, firmly locked onto the boy standing by the bed.

Her cheeks flushed even more deeply from the big movement, and the faint pink mark on her neck became even more vivid.

"stop!!"

Li Zhi suddenly raised an arm, pointed at Shen Yuan, and then pointed to the very edge of the bed, his voice filled with feigned composure.

"You stay right there! Don't come any closer!"

Her gaze was fixed on Shen Yuan's face, as if afraid he would break the rules.

"Don't come any closer! Do you understand?!"

After saying this, it seemed as if he wanted to show his determination and sovereignty over this "territory".

Li Zhi defiantly shrank back, sinking even deeper into the warm pile of blankets and pillows.

She pulled the large pillow she was hugging up even higher, almost covering half of her burning face, leaving only a pair of watery eyes full of warning intent, staring unblinkingly at Shen Yuan.

At the same time, Li Zhi picked up the bewildered Nao Nao and formed a cat formation.

The winter sunlight outside the window shifted subtly.

Inside the room, the warm air from the air conditioner carried the familiar scents emanating from the two of them.

The indescribable lingering feeling after that first kiss slowly settled down.

Shen Yuan looked at the furry ball wrapped up on the bed, ready to fight at any moment, and shook his head helplessly.

He obediently, even deliberately moving in slow motion, followed instructions and came to the outermost edge of the bed.

"Then I'll sit here?"

Li Zhifei nodded quickly: "Sit on the edge of the bed! Don't come over here!"

"Good good!"

Although that's what Shen Yuan said.

But before Li Zhi could react after nodding, a wicked smile suddenly appeared on the boy's lips.

He suddenly sat down with lightning speed!

But the place he was sitting in was not the edge of the bed that he had just pointed to, but the inside of Li Zhi's curled-up legs!
The soft, thick blanket sank deep inside, and the boy's warm body instantly encroached on the safe zone that Li Zhi had designated, even through the blanket.

The distance between the two was compressed to almost zero.

Li Zhi could even clearly feel the body temperature emanating from the outside of his thigh.

"what!!!"

Li Zhi was so shocked by this sudden lack of martial ethics that he instantly became furious.

Not only her, but also Sangeng and Naonao, who were originally lying peacefully in bed, were startled and quickly jumped out of bed.

The girl was jolted backward so hard she almost hit the headboard.

Her face, which had just lost a hint of redness, flushed again. She raised her arm and slapped Shen Yuan, her voice rising several octaves in exasperation.

"You stinking Shen Yuan! Seran!! You've crossed the line! Who let you sit here?! Get out! You said you'd sit on the side?! You're cheating!! You stinking idiot!!"

As he spoke, Li Zhi even raised his foot and kicked Shen Yuan's thigh.

Her feet, encased in pantyhose, pressed against Shen Yuan's thigh, pushing him away.

Shen Yuan sat down casually, without any remorse on his face. He even deliberately leaned back comfortably, taking up a large part of the bed.

He turned his head to the side, raised an eyebrow at the pretty girl whose cheeks were puffed up with anger, his expression innocent yet somewhat matter-of-fact.

"Hey, Li Bao, where did you cross the line? I just obediently sat down as you told me to, didn't I?"

After a pause, seeing Li Zhi's increasingly embarrassed and annoyed expression, Shen Yuan's smile deepened.

He gestured with his hand to indicate the distance between where he was sitting and the tiny spot on the edge of the bed, and spoke in a serious tone.

"Sigh, there's nothing I can do, my butt is too big, it takes up too much space! I have no choice but to accept it! It's really not my fault! It's a hardware problem!"

"Hmph! What a load of nonsense! A man's mouth is a liar's mouth!"

Li Zhi was so angry at his ridiculously space-consuming hardware that he laughed.

The beautiful girl, who was curled up on the inside of the bed, pushed Shen Yuan's thigh with all her might.

"Who cares about software or hardware! You're crowding me! Get out of the way! You're blocking my space!"

Shen Yuan remained motionless, instead grabbing Li Zhiguang's ankle.

His five fingers snapped together instantly, clenching firmly in his palm, while his fingertips mischievously rubbed lightly against her sensitive ankle bone.

"Hey! What do you mean your territory! This is my bed!"

Instead of getting up, Shen Yuan deliberately lay down in Li Zhi's direction, taking advantage of the force of her push.

"Oh dear, my legs aren't working properly anymore, I can't move at all now!"

"Hey! Shen Yuan! You scoundrel! Let go!"

Li Zhi's other free foot immediately joined the "battle," kicking and thrashing at Shen Yuan's waist and thighs, while his other hand reached out to try to pry open Shen Yuan's fingers that were gripping his ankle.

"You idiot Seran! Take your paws off me! You think I won't bite you?!"

"Biting? Who kicked first?"

While resisting the push from the girl's other foot, Shen Yuan deliberately leaned his body towards her, as if he was having a good time being kicked by her.

Every time Li Zhi tried to kick, he skillfully deflected most of the force, making it seem as if he was leading her in a playful banter, which made her scream in anger.

"Your legs are really strong, Li Bao! You were just saying you couldn't stand up straight! You little liar!"

"No way! You're the liar! You said you weren't going to sit here!"

Li Zhi was so angry that she tried to pry his fingers off with both hands, and struggled to twist her body to pull her foot away.

The girl struggled with her hands and feet, and the hem of her cashmere sweater rolled up higher and higher with her movements, revealing a section of her fair waistline.

But she was completely oblivious, preoccupied only with fighting him.

"Get your claws off me! Do you believe I'll bite you to death!"

She growled in embarrassment and anger, kicking her other foot haphazardly at Shen Yuan's thigh.

"Bite me to death?"

Shen Yuan's gaze swept over Li Zhi's puffed-up cheeks, and a wicked smile suddenly appeared on his lips, his voice carrying a strong sense of provocation.

"Trying to bite me?"

The boy's Adam's apple bobbed, like scattering a spark that instantly ignited the battlefield.

He slightly raised his chin, his sharply defined jawline taut, and his gaze fell heavily on Li Zhi's pink lips, which were slightly parted due to her panting.

"Okay, Li Bao, but don't bite your hand, it's no fun..."

He stared into her eyes, his tongue seemingly unconsciously licking the corner of his lips.

"Why don't you try biting my lips?"

"ha?!!"

"Shen Yuan!!!"

The girl reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, instantly bristling with anger!

Her bright eyes, which had previously held a hint of fighting spirit, widened instantly, her pupils dilating in shock.

"You filthy, despicable, perverted scoundrel!! You wish!!!"

With this furious shout, the beautiful girl whose ankle he had just been holding suddenly unleashed astonishing strength!

She abruptly pulled her foot back from Shen Yuan's palm, and at the same time, her whole body seemed to be springy, trying to retreat quickly.

But at that moment, Shen Yuan suddenly pounced forward like a cheetah!
The mattress sank violently, and before Li Zhi could even cry out, Shen Yuan had already firmly covered her.

The boy braced his left hand against her ear, his burning chest completely pressing down on her struggling body.

"Li Bao," Shen Yuan said breathlessly, his gaze falling on the girl's eyes, "Are you going to bite me again?"

Li Zhi was trapped in the cage formed by himself and the velvet blanket, his lower back sinking into the soft folds, and his disheveled ponytail covering the pillow.

“Selan! You…”

Li Zhi struggled to free her wrists, but he pressed her down into the pillow even harder.

The boy's burning chest pressed tightly against her, and the unfamiliar weight and intense body temperature made Li Zhi instantly forget the playful fight from before, her heart suddenly clenching.

Shen Yuan looked at the beautiful girl beneath him, whose eyes were wide with shock and embarrassment.

His own image was clearly reflected in it, his eyes blazing with impulse.

The girl's lips parted slightly, exhaling a rapid, sweet breath, so close that he only needed to lower his head an inch more...

The boy's breathing suddenly became heavy, quickening with each breath, the scorching heat like a small storm, pounding heavily on Li Zhi's already burning cheeks.

Li Zhi looked up at Shen Yuan, and when she saw the emotions in Shen Yuan's eyes, the beautiful eyes that usually held a cunning look clearly revealed panic.

Her eyes glistened with tears, and even her small nostrils twitched slightly from her sudden, rapid breathing.

Shen Yuan's aura descended heavily, and that familiar aura now seemed extremely aggressive.

His arm, which he braced against his ear, was taut with muscle, and the deep mattress brought their faces even closer together.

too close……

But mainly, the pose was... too ambiguous...

This realization was like a cold electric current instantly running through his spine. The color faded from Li Zhi's cheeks, which were originally flushed from playing around, leaving a fragile, pale base.

Her wrist, pinned down, stiffened in his palm, her fingertips curling helplessly as she tried to grasp a bit of soft fabric for support.

The lingering warmth of their first kiss still burned on his lips, but the completely controlled position brought a completely different kind of panic—a fear of being swallowed by dangerous ambiguity.

Li Zhi even felt a slight, irresistible sense of suffocation due to his suppression.

The girl subconsciously turned her head slightly, trying to create a little distance for air circulation.

His chin tightened into a subtle curve, and the crimson mark he had left on his neck seemed to become even more glaring with his slightly rapid breathing.

Looking at that face so close to hers, her body trembled involuntarily. Even the threats she had just made were crushed in her throat, turning into a trembling sob.

"Shen...Shen Yuan...you...please don't do this..."
