With legs weak, the sickly stable boy became a mad regent.

Her lips were soft and sweet-smelling, warm and moist, pressed against his chapped lips.

They were just touching, without moving, but that was more intense than any kiss.

At this moment, A-Chao's mind was in complete turmoil.

Originally, he did indeed want to think about it.

Just how far was this woman willing to go for him, this stable boy?

He deliberately drank that glass of wine.

They deliberately lured her to the peach grove.

He deliberately showed her how "uncomfortable" he was.

But she gradually deviated from his expectations.

just now……

She was there; was she kissing him?

Something in his mind suddenly exploded with a "buzz."

The explosion left him completely blank.

I can't think of anything.

All I could feel was the warmth of her lips and the sweet fragrance of her breath.

Shen Nannan stepped back a little and looked at him: "Would this be better?"

He didn't answer. His throat felt like it was blocked by something.

He just stared at her, the fire in his eyes burning ever brighter.

But he still endured it.

He endured until the veins on his forehead bulged, his hands clenched into fists, and his nails dug into his palms.

Shen Nannan quickly took his hand.

Place it on your waist.

"Stop pinching me, it hurts," she said.

Pinch me.

Ah Chao's breath hitched. Her waist was so slender, so delicate, that he felt he could break it with the slightest effort.

She wrapped her arms around his neck, and the two were very close.

Shen Nannan took a deep breath.

As if he had made up his mind,

"Go ahead and pinch me..."

Looking at her resolute expression, A-Chao couldn't help but chuckle.

"This servant cannot bear to part with it."

He stared at her, his Adam's apple bobbing violently.

"Miss,"

His voice was hoarse, as if it were being forced out of his throat.

"Do you know that the more you act like this, the more your servant wants it—"

He didn't finish speaking because Shen Nannan leaned in again and kissed him on the lips, this time for a little longer than before.

"What do you want?" She stepped back, looking at him with bright eyes.

"You want me?"

Ah Chao felt his rationality crumbling bit by bit.

She nestled in his arms, soft and fragrant, looking up at him.

Her arms were around his neck.

Her waist was pressed against his palm.

Her lips were right in front of him, slightly swollen and glistening with moisture.

Shen Nannan was waiting for him.

Wait for him to make a move, wait for him to lose control.

Let's see if he'll turn into the person who tormented her to death in her past life.

She's gambling.

Ah Chao closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened them again, the desire in his eyes had subsided somewhat.

"Miss."

He reached out, pinched her small earlobe, and gently rubbed it.

Shen Nannan's breathing became erratic.

"Miss's ears," he said in a low voice, still hoarse, but with a hint of something more.

"It's so soft..."

"You—uh—"

He lowered his head and kissed her.

They simply stuck it on, silencing her completely.

Shen Nannan's mind went blank.

His lips were burning hot, with a metallic taste of blood, pressed against hers, without moving, just touching.

It's like confirming something.

—To confirm that it's real, to confirm that she didn't dodge, to confirm that she wouldn't push him away.

Then he moved.

It wasn't the kind of kiss Xiao Yunzhao gave in his previous life, one that was full of plunder and possession. This one was cautious and tentative, as if afraid of breaking something.

His lips brushed against hers, gently, slowly, with a touch of awkwardness.

Shen Nannan's heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of her throat.

In his past life, when he kissed her, he would always pry open her mouth and go straight in, kissing her until she couldn't breathe and cried for mercy.

But now he's like a boy who's never been close to anyone, clumsy and awkward, not even knowing where to put his hands.

She suddenly felt like laughing.

"What are you laughing at?" He stepped back a little, his voice muffled, even a little aggrieved.

"It's nothing." She smiled slightly.

"I just feel like you're not really good at it."

Ah Chao's ears turned red.

"You lackey—"

He paused, his voice lowering, as if he felt ashamed.

"I've never kissed anyone else."

Shen Nannan was stunned for a moment.

In his past life, when he pressed her down on the bed and kissed her, he was incredibly skilled.

She always thought he had other women, but later she realized that it seemed he... from beginning to end, only ever had her as his woman...

"Then you—" she began, her voice slightly unsteady.

"Would you like to try again?"

Ah Chao stared at her, his Adam's apple bobbing.

He lowered his head and kissed her again.

This time it's a little deeper than before.

His tongue gently licked her lips, as if tasting them, or perhaps testing them.

Shen Nannan's breathing became erratic, and she gripped his clothes tightly until her knuckles turned white.

He tasted the sweetness on her lips, a low groan escaped his throat, and he tightened his arms, pulling her into his embrace.

"Miss……"

He whispered near her lips, his voice hoarse beyond belief.

"You're so sweet."

Shen Nannan's face was so hot it could fry an egg.

She pushed his chest: "You, you've had enough—"

"not enough."

His forehead pressed against hers, his breathing rapid, the fire in his eyes burning ever brighter, yet he still held back.

"Miss, this servant wants—"

He didn't finish speaking because she stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the corner of his lips again.

"What do you want?" She looked at him, her eyes bright and mischievous.

Explain yourself.

Ah Chao stared at her, his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.

I want you.

He said his voice was so low it sounded like it was being squeezed out of his chest.

"I miss it terribly."

Shen Nannan's heart skipped a beat.

He looked at her and said, word by word, "But this servant does not want it at a time like this."

He straightened up, took a step back, leaned against the tree trunk, closed his eyes, and took a deep breath.

When I opened my eyes again, most of the desire in them had subsided, leaving only a few embers burning.

"I will remember what Miss gave me."

The corners of his mouth curved slightly, a smile that held a hint of satisfaction, yet also an indescribable meaning.

"The rest, we'll ask for when the servant is sober."

Shen Nannan stood there, looking at him, her face burning hot.

This person—she was the one who came to "save" him, so why is she the one blushing so easily when he flirts with her?

Just as she was about to say something, a series of footsteps and voices suddenly came from afar.

"Where are they? Weren't they supposed to be coming this way?"

"Separate teams and search! The Crown Prince said that the eldest daughter of the Shen family is a rare beauty, so hurry and find her!"

Shen Nannan was startled and hurriedly turned around to look.

The Crown Prince's man?!

She instinctively wanted to run away, but Ah Chao was one step ahead.

Bring her face to me.

He whispered softly in her ear.

"Miss... focus..."

At this moment, Shen Nannan felt no romantic feelings whatsoever.

"But……"

She thought of the Crown Prince's disgusting gaze.

The footsteps grew closer and closer.

His body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Ah Chao hugged her tightly, saying, "Don't be afraid, Miss, I'm here."

Suddenly, they heard those people shouting.

"Found it!"

"He's over there! Bring him here!"

Shen Nannan was so frightened that she hugged the person in front of her tightly.

But the sounds behind me grew fainter and fainter...

They went in another direction.

A muffled groan came from above.

"Miss, don't move."

His voice carried a hint of laughter, yet also a touch of pitifulness at the end.

"You're pressing against me like that."

"If you move again... this servant really won't be able to hold back."
