Li Yuyu pressed Yan Xiu beneath her and touched his lips, she smelled the fresh scent of ambergris and lotus seeds.
In that moment, Li Yuyu’s mind went blank for a second, and without knowing why, her first reaction wasn’t to get off Yan Xiu, but to part her cherry lips and give his lips a peck.
"Choo~"
This suggestive sound that sparked imagination made Feng Yin and Shen Quan suddenly straighten their bent bodies, very tacitly turning away in opposite directions.
The culprit Song Sheng had already pressed Xing Na’s nape to turn away.
Yan Xiu’s every intended move was utterly disrupted by Li Yuyu’s "suck", leaving him lying on the deck, somewhat reluctant to get up.
Li Yuyu blinked, gradually realizing what she had done, yet her face showed not a hint of panic.
As the saying goes, as long as she doesn’t feel embarrassed, the embarrassment belongs to others.
Li Yuyu was ready to use her thick-skinned nature to get through this awkward moment, but her slightly lifted waist was forcefully pressed by Yan Xiu’s arm, bringing her lips back to his.
This time, Yan Xiu grasped the back of Li Yuyu’s head, taking the lead.
Before they realized, only they remained on the dragon boat.
Before they noticed, they had exchanged places.
By the time this kiss ended, Li Yuyu’s cheeks were flushed, her watery eyes dreamy, and her cherry lips had turned deliciously red.
Li Yuyu lightly supported herself on the deck with her arms to sit up and catch her breath, her mind blank for a moment, turning in confusion to meet Yan Xiu’s fiery eyes beneath deep brows, her heart missing a beat.
"I... you..."
"We’re at Lake Ring Pavilion. Since the Young Master Yu is tired, why not rest with me in the pavilion for a while," Yan Xiu slightly turned his head, avoiding Li Yuyu’s gaze, pretending not to notice her unease, adding as he stood, "The chef at Dragon Hidden Temple is quite skilled at making pastries too."
Li Yuyu pressed her lips tight, looking up at Yan Xiu who left just like that, angrily punching the deck.
Scumbag!
Giving a kiss and running off!
The faint sound was naturally heard by Yan Xiu, but not only did he not turn back, he quickened his pace instead.
Feng Yin, on guard nearby, caught Yan Xiu’s glance and quickly understood, performing Fuli before swiftly boarding the dragon boat: "Young Master Yu."
Li Yuyu was angrily patting her disheveled clothes.
Feng Yin amusedly watched the sulking Li Yuyu, came over to help tidy her clothes and hairstyle, kindly coaxing her a bit, but Li Yuyu remained upset.
Helplessly, she could only assist Li Yuyu, cheeks puffed with anger written all over them, off the dragon boat.
Inside Lake Ring Pavilion, not only were there pastries and fruits laid out, but also tea and wine.
Yan Xiu sat on a stone bench covered with a yellow silk cushion, sipping tea poured by Shen Quan.
The tea leaves were from the tea woods behind Dragon Hidden Temple, brewed with mountain spring water; the flavor was exquisite.
"Please sit, Young Master Yu. This tea can only be drunk here at Dragon Hidden Temple. Of course, many come and go from Dragon Hidden Temple, but few get to taste this tea."
Yan Xiu pushed another tea bowl towards Li Yuyu.
Shen Quan very considerately poured tea for Li Yuyu.
Humph.
Just one cup of tea and you want me to forgive your scummy ways? Dream on!
Li Yuyu pouted angrily as she took the tea to drink, initially wanting to complain, but the sweet and mellow taste of the tea lingered in her mouth, leaving a fresh scent, making her crave one sip after another.
She quickly finished the tea, pushed the empty bowl forward, smacking her lips: "Another cup!"
