Chapter 22

For a few minutes, Ye Yan's mind went completely blank.

The summer night wind howled past me, leaving only fleeting shadows of the towering buildings lining the streets, and the neon lights and streetlights becoming shimmering spots of light.

The world is rushing by, but he and Qin Su's car are speeding forward.

Ye Yan found it difficult to describe his feelings at that moment.

The wind seemed to blow into his heart, stirring his emotions and sending his adrenaline and the car speed soaring together.

He even had an urge to shout.

Amidst the rustling wind, Qin Su asked him loudly, "Ye Yan, is my waist comfortable to hold?"

Ye Yan: "..."

He was stunned for a moment, then looked down and realized that he had unknowingly wrapped his arms around Qin Su's waist.

Or it can't even be considered a hug, it can only be considered a pinch.

That section of her waist was so slender and supple that he could almost completely encircle it with his two hands.

"I'm sorry, I..." Ye Yan apologized awkwardly, and quickly let go as if he had been burned.

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Su chuckled and suddenly sped up.

Ye Yan had just let go when, caught off guard, he fell headfirst into Qin Su's arms.

This time, he didn't just put his hands on her waist; he hugged her tightly.

Qin Su laughed arrogantly: "Why are you running away? I didn't say you couldn't carry me."

"..." Ye Yan called her name, both amused and exasperated, "Qin Su."

Qin Su ignored him, raised one arm and waved it in the air, happily saying, "That feels so good!"

Ye Yan was startled and quickly pulled her down, saying, "Be careful on the road."

Qin Su laughed and said, "I don't want to hear this. Say something else."

Ye Yan was completely bewildered: "What did you say?"

"Is this your first time speeding at night?" The wind was strong, and Qin Su's voice was loud too, filled with a cheerful laugh. "How was it? Did you have fun?"

Ye Yan paused for a moment before saying, "It's fun."

His voice wasn't loud and was easily dispersed by the wind, so Qin Su shouldn't have been able to hear it. However, she tilted her head and laughed loudly as if she had heard it very clearly.

"Then hold me tight!"

Qin Su floored the accelerator.

The motorcycle roared, the wind howled, and everything around rushed past.

The two of them looked like they could fly into the sky on their bikes at any moment.

Perhaps because the night wind was too cold, or perhaps because the car was going too fast, Ye Yan did not loosen his arms around Qin Su. Instead, just as she had said, he hugged her even tighter.

It was cold around us, but this embrace was warm.

After an unknown amount of time, Qin Su stopped the car.

Their house was a few hundred meters ahead, and next to it was a dark blue sea.

The moon was high in the sky, its silvery light spilling onto the slowly undulating sea, creating layers of shimmering waves.

"Look," Qin Su pointed to the sea and smiled, "Doesn't it look like icing sugar? Doesn't it look sweet?"

Ye Yan hadn't recovered from the speed and passion he'd just experienced; he was still a little dizzy.

Qin Su told him to look at the sea, but he followed her finger and looked at her face instead.

“Yes,” he murmured. “It’s very sweet.”

Qin Su turned around and glanced at him.

Then she reached out and took off her helmet, smoothed her wind-blown hair, and smiled at Ye Yan, saying, "I'll let you see the sea, where are you looking?"

Ye Yan didn't speak, but continued to look at her.

It seemed to respond to her question silently.

The atmosphere unconsciously became a little strange.

Qin Su changed her sitting position and helped Ye Yan remove his helmet, revealing his hair, which was disheveled by the helmet, and his eyes.

Ye Yan stared straight at her, his deep black eyes as dark as the sea beside him.

Qin Su paused for a moment, as if struck by his gaze.

After a long pause, she asked softly, "Are you happy today?"

Ye Yan's lips moved slightly, and he said in a softer tone, "I'm very happy."

Qin Su remained silent.

The two looked into each other's eyes, their gazes locked, and a faint spark gradually ignited between them.

The moonlight was like water, cool and tranquil, but Ye Yan's chest was pounding.

This commotion forced him to say something.

"I……"

He had just opened his mouth when Qin Su suddenly grabbed his collar, looked up, and kissed him.

Her kiss was urgent and impulsive, like a spark igniting a fire between them in an instant.

The heat was intense and burning.

Ye Yan's eyes turned red almost immediately.

He held Qin Su tightly around the waist and kissed her even deeper.

The surging, intense emotions that had been building up during the race finally surged up uncontrollably and overwhelmed him.

Their kiss was unusually passionate and fierce, like two desperate men fighting to the death, or like a final farewell kiss before the end of the world.

Qin Su even bit Ye Yan's lip until it bled, the taste of blood making the kiss even hotter.

The night intensified everything, and even the waves couldn't mask the increasingly simmering breaths.

Seeing that things were about to escalate if they continued kissing, Qin Su quickly pushed him away, saying, "That's enough..."

Her lips were sucked again.

Ye Yan slowed down and softened his kisses, kissing her again and again.

From the lips to the cheeks, from the tip of the nose to the temples, from the center of the eyebrows to the forehead.

He seemed to have some kind of kissing obsession, lingering on it endlessly.

Qin Su felt a slight tickle from his kiss and couldn't help but turn her face away, whispering with a smile, "Stop kissing me, or it'll be dawn."

Ye Yan's lips relentlessly pursued her, pressing against her lips with a mixture of closeness and distance.

The two faces were very close, and the restrained strength and aggression in his eyes were deeply suppressed.

“It’s okay.” He lowered his eyelashes, staring at her intently, his slightly hoarse voice sounding both coaxing and seductive, “Even if the sky were to fall, I would still want to kiss you right now.”

Qin Su's breathing became erratic.

She was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled.

"Then let's continue."
