Jiang Yuan stood on tiptoe with effort, her two hands tightly clutching Chi Xu's wrists. With great exertion, she managed to pin him against the wall.
She'd forgotten that Chi Xu was a head taller than her. Trying to pin him against the wall, her height was just not enough.
She felt like crying but had no tears. How could she have forgotten this?
This way of confessing just wasn't suitable for her.
How could she have been so bewitched as to choose that video?
It was all because she'd been blinded by the ambiguous excitement in the video.
Now that she was in a dilemma, she could only grit her teeth and carry on.
It was just a confession. What was so difficult about it?
All of Jiang Yuan's weight was supported by Chi Xu's clasped fists. She stood on tiptoe and leaned forward.
The boy had handsome features and a well - structured bone frame. His eyes, as dark as ink, were deep like a pond. After a moment of surprise, they were immediately filled with bright smiles.
"Yuanyuan, what are you up to?"
He spoke softly, his voice deep and pleasant. The warm breath from his words rushed towards her, landing on her neck and making it tingle.
Jiang Yuan's face couldn't help but flush red, and the tips of her ears were so red that they seemed about to bleed.
Jiaojiao, lying on the sofa, squinted her eyes, watched this scene, and let out a meaningful "meow~".
Jiang Yuan felt her face grow even redder. There was a non - human creature watching.
"Mind your own business..."
As soon as the words came out, the atmosphere was instantly ruined.
Jiang Yuan realized something was wrong and quickly tried to make up for it. She blinked her big, watery eyes and spoke in a delicate voice.
"Don't ask what I'm doing first. Just watch what I'm going to do."
"Okay~"
The drawn - out ending was long and alluring, hitting her right in the heart.
Jiang Yuan looked up and stared directly into Chi Xu's eyes, getting lost in his beautiful black orbs.
Her heart was pounding wildly in her chest, and her fingertips pressing on him began to tremble.
The distance wasn't enough.
Jiang Yuan frowned slightly and stood on tiptoe, trying hard to get closer to him.
In an instant, her body lost control, and a terrifying sense of weightlessness hit her.
Before she completely fell into Chi Xu's arms, Jiang Yuan closed her eyes and thought thankfully.
Thank goodness. It wasn't that bad. Chi Xu could be her human pillow.
Wait a minute. If she fell like this, wouldn't her confession plan be completely ruined? Ahhh...
A steady and strong hand supported her waist, holding her firmly.
Even so, Jiang Yuan still inevitably fell into Chi Xu's arms.
The clear and cold fragrance of cedar lingered around her nose.
She opened her eyes slightly and saw her hands on Chi Xu's chest. Her face burned again.
Before she could react, a deep voice landed on top of her head.
"Yuanyuan, are you trying to pin me against the wall?"
With a "bang" in her mind, Jiang Yuan's face turned completely red.
She buried her face in Chi Xu's chest and hung her head low, not daring to face him.
If her confession had been successful, she might have had a bit of courage.
But now... she didn't. Not at all.
"You're doing it wrong. How about I teach you how to pin someone against the wall?"
The smiling voice came again. Jiang Yuan was too shocked to react.
There was a sudden spin, and she and Chi Xu switched positions.
Now she was leaning against the wall, her hands caught by Chi Xu, and she was forced to look up at him.
His eyes were now very deep, black, and intense, like a block of thick ink that couldn't be dissolved, containing emotions she couldn't understand.
Soon, that unreadable emotion was replaced by a smile, bright and dazzling.
Chi Xu lowered his head slightly and got closer to Jiang Yuan. His warm breath sprayed on her cheeks.
"In people's minds, pinning someone against the wall is just a simple kiss, a way to express love. At the same time, it's also a way to make a girl's heart beat faster."
After a pause, he stared at Jiang Yuan and continued.
"It's not only a physical approach but also an eye - to - eye exchange and a proper atmosphere."
As he spoke, he trapped Jiang Yuan in a posture that was both oppressive and gentle.
He taught Jiang Yuan what pinning someone against the wall meant.
Jiang Yuan's heart was beating so fast that it seemed about to jump out of her throat.
Her mind went blank, and she could only stare blankly at Chi Xu, who was so close in front of her.
She knew what pinning someone against the wall was, but when it happened to her, she knew nothing.
Jiang Yuan swallowed nervously.
The distance between them was getting closer and closer, so close that she could clearly see Chi Xu's eyelashes, trembling slightly like a small fan with his movements.
She was so nervous and excited. Was Chi Xu really going to kiss her?
Wuwuwu. This time she'd gone too far. In order to seduce Chi Xu, she was about to offer her first kiss.
But Chi Xu was good - looking. After knowing him for so many years, it didn't seem so bad to offer her first kiss to him.
It was his first kiss too, as he'd never been in a relationship.
In her sight, Jiang Yuan watched helplessly as Chi Xu got closer and closer to her cheek. Her eyes widened more and more.
Then, his warm and soft lips brushed against her cheek. As if she'd been burned, her body jerked back.
A current shot up her spine.
Chi Xu didn't expect Jiang Yuan to react so strongly. Brushing against her cheek just now had been an accident.
He'd just wanted to tease her but almost started a fire.
Chi Xu quickly let go of Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan was weak all over and slumped down along the wall. Her eyes were unfocused, and she hadn't come to her senses.
"Yuanyuan? Yuanyuan?"
Chi Xu gently pushed her shoulder and called her softly.
Jiaojiao jumped off the sofa, came to Jiang Yuan's side, meowed worriedly, and rubbed against her palm.
"So... so exciting." Jiang Yuan murmured silently to herself.
Chi Xu didn't hear clearly. He turned his head to look at Jiang Yuan, put his hands on both sides of her shoulders, and shook her hard. "You're not scared silly, are you?"
The world around faded away. Chi Xu's face loomed large in front of her. Jiang Yuan came to her senses, was startled, let out a scream, and immediately pushed Chi Xu away.
She stood up in a hurry.
Chi Xu repeated his worried words.
Jiang Yuan covered her face with both hands, avoided him, pushed open the door of her room, and slammed it shut with a "bang".
Chi Xu was blocked outside the door, and so was Jiaojiao.
In the room, Jiang Yuan threw herself onto the big bed and fanned herself vigorously. "So hot, so hot, so hot. How could it be so hot?"
She turned over and stared at the ceiling.
"It's over, it's over, it's over. How could I be so embarrassing? Wuwuwu. How am I going to face Chi Xu in the future?"
If her wall - pinning confession had been successful, it would have been okay. At least she wouldn't have been so embarrassing. It would have been just a matter of Chi Xu accepting or rejecting her.
If he accepted, she could stay there without a care.
If he rejected, it didn't matter. She could pester Chi Xu shamelessly. She believed that he would like her one day.
But why did the wall - pinning fail, and instead, she was pinned against the wall by Chi Xu? She hadn't even said a single word of confession.
He must be laughing at her now.
"God, why are you playing such a big joke on me..."
