“The professor called and said the sooner the better.”

The sooner the better…

Which means he would be leaving soon.

Su Jiu felt even more disappointed. She whispered, “Then go back early.”

Sensing the little girl’s disappointment, Rong Si suddenly felt a little better. “If I leave, will you… miss me?”

Without thinking, Su Jiu replied, “Of course, I will! Won’t you miss me?”

As soon as she said that, she suddenly felt awkward.

Tsk, wasn’t that too romantic!

Her ears heated, and she was embarrassed to look into Rong Si’s deep, beautiful eyes. She had to look away. Rong Si, however, reached out and cupped her face in his hand so that she could look directly at him.

Then, he replied to her earnestly, “I’ll miss you, too.”

He added, “I’ve never stopped missing you.”

Does he mean that he would always be missing me?

Su Jiu’s ears burned even more. For a moment, she did not know how to answer him. However, she was already in his arms. She looked up in shock and almost bumped into his sharp jaw.

Rong Si put his arm around her waist. They were very close now, as if they could feel each other’s warmth through their thin clothes. When Su Jiu looked into his dark, deep eyes, her heart suddenly thumped. It was as if she had a premonition and knew what he wanted to do next. Her small body stiffened as if she could not move.

Rong Si’s gaze landed on her pink lips. He clearly remembered the sweet taste of them. His heart skipped a beat, and he couldn’t help but lower his head…

Su Jiu had already expected this from him and still did not move. However, when his lips were only a hair’s width away from hers, she blushed and closed her eyes.

The next thing she knew, he was kissing her.

Unlike his impatience and lack of order when he pretended to be drunk that night, Rong Si’s kiss was exceptionally gentle this time. He pressed his lips carefully against hers, as if he couldn’t bear to use any of his strength on a beloved treasure.

In front of such gentleness, Su Jiu’s heart softened as if it was about to melt.

His stoic and seductive aura completely enveloped her. Su Jiu was immersed in it and could not help but grip his shirt and move in closer to him.

Rong Si held her close. Slowly, he became less gentle, as if he wasn’t satisfied with such a shallow taste and wanted more.

And he did.

His transformation caught Su Jiu off-guard, and she began to lose her breath. However, she didn’t want to let go of him, nor did she want him to let go of her; she wanted to enjoy the sweetness and madness before they separated…

After who knew how long…

When Su Jiu was almost unable to breathe and her face was flushed red, Rong Si reluctantly let go of her.

Finally able to breathe fresh air, Su Jiu took in deep breaths.

Seeing that the young man in front of her was calm and only panting a little, she recalled that he had been rather skillful just now… Blushing, she said indignantly, “Rong Si! How are you getting better and better? Where did you learn this?”

Rong Si stared at her red lips. They were stained with a thin sheen of moisture, as smooth and tempting as jelly. His eyes darkened instantly, and he had the urge to taste them again.

His lips curved. “I learned it from you, of course.”

“…” When he said this, his dark eyes were fixed on her, and Su Jiu’s face burned even hotter.
