The private room remained enveloped in darkness as the lights stayed off, casting a shroud of obscurity upon the scene. With the door closed, a profound darkness settled within the confines of the room.
Zhou Hengguang, leading Su Qing into the private space, was acutely aware of the presence of his formidable elder brother beyond the closed door. His attention remained fixated on the elder sibling, understanding his capabilities better than anyone. Playing any covert games under his elder brother’s vigilant gaze seemed nearly impossible.
Despite this awareness, Zhou Hengguang, having never defeated his elder brother since childhood, harboured no resentment. His flexible nature allowed him to gracefully accept defeat, embodying the role of a dutiful younger brother. It was different to the recklessness of Xiaoxiao, who constantly sought challenges only to be repeatedly subdued.
Over the years, Zhou Hengguang had crafted a set of strategies unique to him—effective yet adaptable. However, with Su Qing’s presence that day, his usual manoeuvres were curtailed. The astuteness of his elder brother could easily discern any deviation.
Zhou Hengguang instinctively pressed Su Qing against the wall after entering the private room, ensuring her concealment from the prying eyes of his elder brother.
Su Qing found herself momentarily stunned in the encompassing darkness. The absence of light seemed to amplify every sensation, her heart pulsating loudly. The unexpected proximity of Lin Weiguo added to her unease. His arm around her shoulders felt unyielding, resembling steel, resisting her attempts to push it away.
“Lin…”
Before Su Qing could articulate her thoughts, her words were muffled by a warm palm, silencing her. The touch was masculine, the calloused palm possessing the distinct strength and breadth of a man. As his fingers grazed her lips, a jolt of electricity surged through her body, rendering her in a fixed position.
In a hushed tone, Zhou Hengguang reassured her, “Shh, don’t talk. People are looking for me outside.” His murmurs, delivered intimately close to her ear, were seductive. His lips brushed against her delicate ear, and the warmth of his breath stirred a sensual response within her.
“Don’t be afraid! He’ll leave in a while.’
Zhou Hengguang couldn’t resist the sensation of the soft and tender lips he had unintentionally brushed against moments ago. Almost instinctively, he found himself rubbing them again, only to abruptly realize the nature of what he had inadvertently made contact with.
As Zhou Hengguang’s lips inadvertently met hers, Su Qing stood stupefied, and even Zhou Hengguang was momentarily taken aback. Despite his playboy facade, he was, in reality, fastidious about personal boundaries. His clean-freak tendencies were well-known. After graduation, thanks to his skilful disguise and Oscar-worthy acting, no one around Zhou Hengguang could uncover his true self.
All they knew was that he had a bad temper. However, in all these years, Zhou Hengguang had never held a girl’s hand, let alone touched the delicate lips of a girl. Yet the softness of Su Qing’s lips intrigued him.
Not only did Zhou Hengguang lack the disgust and anticipated repulsion he had imagined, but deep within, it felt as if there was an invisible little claw gently scratching at his heart.
A surge of curiosity overwhelmed Zhou Hengguang. What did these tender lips taste like? In an unexpected move, he leaned in and kissed her trembling lips. The experience surpassed his imagination, an uncharted realm he had never explored before..
