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

Chapter 297 Li Bao is so good at coaxing people!

The soft click of the key being inserted into the lock broke the silence in the hallway.

"Click."

Li Zhi gently pushed open the door to 1902 and slightly stepped aside to let Shen Yuan behind him pass.

In the dim light, the motion sensor light on the entryway cabinet lit up with a small, dim yellow halo.

The airflow created by the opening and closing of the doors carried a familiar, homey feeling.

The girl's slender fingertips pressed the switch on the wall.

"Snapped."

The main light in the living room turned on instantly, and the cool white light spread like mercury across the entire open space.

Sofa, coffee table, TV cabinet... everything is still in its original place, neat and tidy.

However, that familiar, gentle whisper that would always greet her at the first moment was nowhere to be found.

The living room was empty.

The silence came somewhat abruptly.

Li Zhi stepped inside, his toes making a slight echo on the floor.

Her gaze swept quickly across the sofa, which was empty; it seemed Ms. Xu Chan was already resting.

"..."

The girl paused slightly before turning into the hallway leading to her parents' bedroom.

The lights in the corridor were off, and the familiar door was tightly shut, not a sound could be heard.

Shen Yuan followed Li Zhi in and gently closed the door behind him.

His tall, imposing figure instinctively stopped in his tracks amidst the sudden brightness and excessive silence.

He raised an eyebrow slightly, his gaze quickly sweeping across the empty living room before finally settling on Li Zhi.

A barely perceptible glint flashed in the boy's deep eyes...

Ok?
"It seems..."

Shen Yuan's Adam's apple bobbed slightly as he lowered his voice, his tone carrying a hint of mockery.

"Our timing for returning... is just right?"

Now it was Li Zhi's turn to feel uneasy.

This is tantamount to inviting a wolf into the house!

The girl's delicate nostrils twitched slightly, and her fingertips curled nervously.

She abruptly turned her head, glaring at Shen Yuan, and let out a short, embarrassed groan:
"Humph!"

Immediately afterwards, she warned in a soft but stern voice:

"You, you're not allowed to do anything reckless! My parents are definitely asleep!"

Her cheeks burned, and she avoided looking at Shen Yuan's burning gaze.

"understood."

Shen Yuan responded in a low, decisive voice, even with a hint of deliberate obedience.

however--

"ah!"

A short, low gasp escaped from Li Zhi's throat, barely audible, before she tightly muffled it.

The moment she finished speaking, Shen Yuan took a long stride, swiftly reached out, and firmly embraced the girl's waist.

The next second, the world spun around!

Li Zhi felt a tightness around his waist, and an irresistible force suddenly struck him, causing his feet to dangle in the air in an instant!
Li Zhifei quickly grabbed his arm, his forced composure shattered by the sudden attack.

The girl's cheeks flushed instantly, and even the back of her fair neck was tinged with a hot crimson.

"Put me down! You bad dog! What if someone hears us?!"

The girl's voice was low and filled with embarrassment and anxiety. Her slender legs kicked unconsciously, brushing against his trouser leg and leaving faint marks.

Shen Yuan ignored him.

His arms were held very firmly, as if he were embracing a rare treasure, with an undeniable possessiveness.

The girl's soft body nestled in his burning embrace. He lowered his head, his hot breath brushing against her flushed earlobes and sensitive neck, his deep voice laced with amusement.

"Understood, Li Bao."

Without further delay, Shen Yuan, holding the beautiful girl in his arms who had suddenly fallen silent but whose heart was pounding like thunder, walked silently toward the half-open door of Li Zhi's room with steady and swift steps.

Their figures and silence cast heavy shadows down the corridor.

Each step landed extremely lightly, yet it treaded on their hearts, which were beating as loudly as drums.

The boy deliberately slowed his movements, pushing open the familiar door without making a sound.

The familiar scent of the room enveloped me, carrying the sweet fragrance unique to young girls.

Shen Yuan stepped steadily into this private territory, and gently closed the door leading to the living room with his other hand—

"Click."

Closed.

The sound of the door closing softly, like a pebble thrown into a still lake, instantly broke the stagnant silence in the room.

Shen Yuan carried Li Zhi and took a few steps to the bedside.

His movements were not gentle, carrying an eagerness ignited by what had just been provoked, yet he was careful not to let Li Zhi bump into anything.

"boom."

Shen Yuan casually tossed the two schoolbags onto the carpet beside the bed without hesitation, making a dull thud.

Li Zhi felt a softness beneath her as the dark sheets supported her weight as she was laid down.

Shen Yuan's tall body also descended, carrying his burning body temperature and a strong sense of presence.

The light slanted down from the desk lamp behind her, outlining the deep contours of Shen Yuan's eyebrows and eyes.

"Woo..."

A soft sob escaped the girl's throat, her unspoken reproach choked back by the overwhelming breath.

Before the shadow fell completely over her, Li Zhi subconsciously raised her arm.

The slender fingers did not push him away, but rather seemed to be seeking support, tightly encircling Shen Yuan's neck and pulling him closer.

The distance between the two disappeared instantly.

The next instant, Shen Yuan's kiss landed on his lips.

"Um--!"

Li Zhi's breath hitched, and all her taut nerves were ignited the moment she was touched.

Shen Yuan's predatory nature was too strong; he relentlessly pursued and entangled her.

The faint scent of peach still lingered in the air, but it was quickly overwhelmed by the more intense hormonal aura emanating from the boy.

The girl unconsciously tightened her fingers, her knuckles turning slightly white, digging deeply into the taut muscles of Shen Yuan's neck, as if a drowning person were grasping at the only piece of driftwood.

Her response was not proactive; it was more like an involuntary descent into depravity.

The air became thin and scorching.

Shen Yuan's hand gripped her slender waist, and through the thin fabric of her summer school uniform, the heat seemed to melt into her skin.

Her waist was sensitive, and it trembled slightly as his palm gently caressed her.

Li Zhi closed her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings in the wind, her fair cheeks already flushed with a rosy blush that spread all the way to her delicate earlobes and slender neck.

The slight creaking of the bed and the rapid, disordered breathing were amplified in the quiet room.

Time was disrupted by the sticky kiss, and all that remained in the sensory world was the intense friction between lips, the slight pain of fingertips digging into flesh, and the thunderous pounding of the heart that felt like it was about to burst out of the chest.

The gentle light spilled onto their intertwined figures, freezing their silhouettes of passionate kisses on the wall, intimately intertwined.

The schoolbag was forgotten in the corner, isolated from the boiling temperature at that moment.

The air in the room still seemed to carry an electric current, hot and viscous, with only the rapid, alternating breaths of the two people mingling under the lamplight.

Shen Yuan slowly raised his head, his deep eyes now filled with an intense, almost overwhelming focus, replacing his previous smugness.

He propped himself up on his arms, creating a slight distance between them, his gaze lingering on the face of the girl beneath him.

Li Zhi's cheeks flushed like the spreading sunset, spreading all the way to her ears and neck, her delicate skin gleaming alluringly under the light.

She parted her lips slightly, breathing in the fresh air rapidly. Her watery eyes were veiled with a thin mist, and her eyelashes trembled with emotion, casting fine, dense shadows in the light.

Their eyes met, and time seemed to slow down as if an invisible hand had pressed the slow-motion button.

Shen Yuan's fingers gently brushed against Li Zhi's lips, which had become even redder from being rubbed.

The slightly tingling sensation made Li Zhi tremble slightly.

The girl's rapid, erratic heartbeat pounded against the boy's chest, resonating powerfully.

She gazed at the exceptionally handsome face sculpted by light and shadow above her; the emotions surging in his eyes were so intense that they almost scorched her soul.

The thrill and intoxication from the deep kiss had not yet completely subsided, but this direct gaze stirred things up even more.

Li Zhi's delicate nose wrinkled almost imperceptibly, as if trying to suppress the overwhelming shyness. Her fingertips remained slightly weak on the back of Shen Yuan's firm neck, as if drawing warmth from his body to steady her mind.

The girl's misty eyes were fixed on Shen Yuan's eyes, her gaze both soft and tender, yet also stubbornly proud and unwilling to admit defeat.

Shen Yuan seemed to be bewitched by her shy yet forced demeanor. His Adam's apple bobbed heavily, and his deep breath brushed against her forehead.

Just as Shen Yuan couldn't resist bending down again to capture that alluring crimson hue—

"Humph……"

A soft hum, tinged with a distinct tremor, escaped from Li Zhi's nose.

She turned her face slightly to avoid his attempt to get closer again, but her delicate chin was raised with a stubborn curve.

The beautiful girl's moist eyelashes fluttered rapidly a few times.

Immediately, her gaze returned, meeting Shen Yuan's burning eyes.

The girl's voice was much softer than usual, even with a slight wheezing from her breath, yet she clearly echoed the words Shen Yuan had spoken not long ago:

“Student Shen…”

A slight tingling sensation lingered between the opening and closing of her soft lips.

"...Are you still nervous now?"

Before he could finish speaking, a deep laugh rolled down Shen Yuan's throat.

He suddenly buried his face in the crook of her neck, his nose brushing against her burning red earlobe, his hot breath searing her throbbing pulse:

"I wasn't nervous at all—"

His lips brushed against hers, hot words mingling in their breath: "But my Li Bao is so good at sweet-talking..."

When the boy looked up again, the dark fire surging in his eyes almost melted her away: "—I'm getting nervous again."

The halo of the chandelier swayed on the intertwined shadows, and the schoolbag lay alone in the shadow of the carpet.

The girl's misty eyes flickered, clearly reflecting the boy's undisguised longing and the hint of waiting for reassurance.

The girl's lips, slightly numb from the kiss, pursed gently, her pearly teeth leaving faint marks on the soft surface that seemed to still hold his scent.

Under Shen Yuan's burning gaze, the shyness that had just been under his control strangely faded a bit, replaced by a bright and cunning look that seemed to say, "I see right through you, you wicked dog."

"Humph……"

A very soft nasal sound escaped from her slightly parted lips, and Li Zhi raised her delicate chin slightly.

Her gaze swept over Shen Yuan, landing on his lips, which were still slightly red and moist from the kiss.

The girl's fingertips unconsciously curled up on the muscle lines of the back of his neck.

Then, as if she had made a decision.

Li Zhi took a deep breath and muttered under his breath, trying to appear calm:

"Just... just coax her one more time..."

Her voice was soft and sweet, like honey melting on the tip of her tongue.

Before she could finish speaking, as if afraid that Shen Yuan would say something that would make her even more embarrassed, Li Zhi used the arm around his neck to move herself up an inch.

The girl's soft lips quickly pressed against his slightly bobbing Adam's apple.

The light touch was fleeting, as quick as an illusion, yet more impactful than any of the lingering kisses that had followed.

Shen Yuanhuan tightened his grip on her arms suddenly.

“...Li Bao”.

His voice was so deep and hoarse it was almost unbelievable, and every word seemed to be fueled by an unquenched flame.

In response to him was Li Zhi's eyes, brimming with tears, staring straight at him, filled with emotions that he didn't need to decipher.

Shen Yuan suddenly lowered his head and fiercely captured the girl's slightly parted lips.

Li Zhi's fingertips dug deep into the fabric of his shoulder and back, his knuckles turning white from the effort, like clinging to a rock in a storm.

Their heartbeats were deafening, like pounding drums, echoing between their tightly pressed chests.

Suppressed breathing became the only real background noise in this private space.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Yuan slowly raised his head.

Fresh air rushed into their lungs, carrying a hint of coolness, but it couldn't dispel the burning heat on their faces and the intense gazes in their eyes.

Shen Yuan propped himself up on his arms, hovering above, his gaze almost greedily taking in the person beneath him.

Li Zhi's lips were noticeably more swollen and alluring than before, and the blush on her cheeks had spread to her delicate earlobes and swan-like neck. Tiny beads of sweat reflected a soft light under the lamp.

Her chest heaved rapidly, gently brushing against his firm chest, sending shivers down her spine.

In those eyes that reflected his image, the intoxication had not faded, and shyness lingered, leaving only a moist glimmer after the intoxication.

Shen Yuan gently wrapped his arms around Li Zhi's waist, his voice low and pleading: "Can I... stay here today?"

Li Zhi's cheeks flushed even redder. She glared at him irritably, but not wanting to ruin the atmosphere, she retorted forcefully, "If you have the guts, then stay."

Shen Yuan's smile deepened as his fingertips brushed across her flushed cheeks.

"Then it's settled. I'll sleep here tonight."

Li Zhi's breath hitched slightly, and when she met his undisguised gaze, the last bit of bravado she had been putting on was instantly shattered.

She instinctively wanted to retort, but the words that came out of her mouth turned into a barely audible hum.

The girl reached out and pulled the thin blanket next to her over her shoulders, then curled up on the inside of the bed, leaving most of the space for herself.

This silent action, like a tacit signal of consent, rippled through the quiet room.

Shen Yuan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he silently raised the corners of his lips.

Shen Yuan chuckled and was about to get closer when Li Zhi suddenly curled up his leg and kicked his knee with his ankle, not too hard, not too soft.

"Go wash up quickly!"

She mumbled something and turned her face away, the redness from the tips of her ears spreading to the side of her neck. As the foot that had kicked her tried to pull back under the covers, it was grabbed by a hand.

Shen Yuan's large hand steadily encircled her slender ankle, his fingertips gently caressing the protruding ankle bone.

Instead of letting go, he moved even closer, following the force.

The boy's deep, slightly hoarse voice carried a strong, persistent quality.

“Li Bao…”

His Adam's apple bobbed, and his voice lowered even further, carrying a hint of coquettishness and whining that suggested he was pushing his luck.

"You haven't coaxed me enough yet, want to coax me a little more?"

Li Zhi was so provoked by this shameless demand that she gasped for breath and abruptly turned around to glare fiercely at Shen Yuan.

Those misty eyes were filled with a mixture of shame and indignation, and the redness at the corners of their eyes had deepened even further.

She tried to pull her leg away in a fit of anger, but he held it firmly in his palm and wouldn't budge.

Shen Yuan's fingers slowly moved up her slender ankle, his hot palms caressing her skin almost imperceptibly, yet his fingertips carried an irresistible force, guiding her toes to gently touch his lower abdomen.

Li Zhi suddenly trembled.

The moment skin touched, certain images that had been deliberately suppressed deep in memory suddenly surged up.

All the fragments exploded in her mind, burning her toes and causing a blush to spread from her neck to the tips of her ears.

Li Zhi immediately knew what Shen Yuan wanted him to coax.

The girl felt a bit nervous as she experienced that sensation.

……

Time passes quietly.

The next morning, as dawn was breaking outside the window, a sliver of light pierced through the gap in the curtains, illuminating the room.

Li Zhi woke up to a warm sensation, first feeling Shen Yuan's arm around her waist.

He was embracing her from behind, his warm breath brushing against the back of her neck, his steady breathing carrying the languidness unique to young men.

Li Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and the embarrassing scenes from last night instantly flashed before her eyes, causing a familiar blush to rise to her ears.

She carefully turned over, and when she looked up, she met Shen Yuan's deep gaze.

He had been awake for a while and was quietly watching her, a satisfied smile lingering in his eyes, softened by the stillness of the morning.

"woke up?"

Shen Yuan's voice was low and hoarse from just waking up, and he tightened his arms around her, pulling her an inch closer.

Li Zhiqing hummed softly, her fingertips unconsciously gripping the fabric of his shirt, both craving the intimacy and suddenly remembering the reality that her parents might already be up outside the door.

As the college entrance exam approached, her parents always got up earlier than her to prepare breakfast.

She pushed his chest urgently: "Get up... you're dead if we get found out!"

Shen Yuan chuckled and refused to let go, deliberately nuzzling the top of her head with his chin, teasing, "You were so earnest in coaxing me last night, and now you're turning your back on me?"

Li Zhixiu stomped on his shin in annoyance, which forced Shen Yuan to obediently get up.

The two frantically tidied the messy sheets and school uniforms, while birdsong began to rise outside the window, the urgency of the countdown quietly overshadowing any romantic feelings.

In the light and shadow of the early morning, only the slightly flushed cheeks of the young boy and girl and the echoing sound of their beating hearts remained.
