Chapter 16 016 Summer Sleep "Why did you kiss me so deeply..."
"yes."
Pei Yan's eyes were filled with tenderness and indulgence.
“But… my girlfriend is very beautiful too.” He gazed at her, his tone slightly raised, and his fingertips brushed a strand of her hair that was hanging on the table. “I can’t bear to blink.”
"That's too much!" Xia Mian couldn't even stand listening to it anymore and buried her head in her hands.
Pei Yan gently pulled her hand away, leaned close to her, and couldn't help but whisper, "Xia Mian, may I kiss you?"
"No, I'm not ready yet." Xia Mian was embarrassed and refused to nod no matter what.
Good heavens, who asks for a kiss in the classroom? Although they are quite secluded here, and Pei Yan is tall, no one else can hear or see what Pei Yan is doing.
“I knew it.” Pei Yan was not surprised, his expression was calm, as if what he said just now was just a test.
The school bell rang at that moment, and the teacher noticed Pei Yan as soon as he walked in. The person who used to like being alone now loves to be in crowds.
Looking at Xia Mian next to her again, she immediately understood and smiled, "There are fewer people in the class this semester, but luckily some classmates can bring their boyfriends, so my class is not too deserted."
Upon hearing this, Xia Mian buried her head even deeper...
When Xia Mian actually started dating, she realized that dating would definitely affect her studies.
Just like in this class, she tried her best to control herself from constantly looking at Pei Yan next to her, but she still couldn't help but look at him, and their eyes met again and again.
Fortunately... this course won't affect her GPA.
After class, Xia Mian naturally ate with Pei Yan in the cafeteria.
It was still at Jinyuan, and she ordered Cantonese roast meat rice again.
This time, Pei Yan carried the plate through the crowd to stand before her.
He clearly located her, but would still smile and call her name: "Xia Mian".
He liked to pronounce those two words, and when he did, his voice was filled with tenderness.
aestivation.
Like a spell, like a poem, it's always a captivating phrase.
The two, who had just started dating, really loved being inseparable.
They went to the library together and took walks together by the artificial lake on campus.
Finally, they lingered by the streetlights below the girls' dormitory, reluctant to part ways.
As they parted, Pei Yan seemed to have something to say, and after hesitating, he suddenly asked, "Do you have any profile pictures you like?"
"What's wrong?" Xia Mian didn't understand his implication. "But I don't need to change my profile picture."
Pei Yan didn't continue speaking, but watched her go upstairs.
It wasn't until Qinglan sent her a message that she realized something was amiss.
[Qinglan]: You two are such a sweet couple, and I'm using the same profile picture as Pei Yan. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?
Yeah...
She's still using matching profile pictures with both Pei Yan and Qing Lan!
【Qinglan】: Ahem, I'm quite conscientious, I've already changed it on my own initiative.
Xia Mian glanced at it again, and Qing Lan had already changed her profile picture.
[Summer Sleep]: Honey, what a coincidence, Pei Yan just mentioned the profile picture too.
[Summer Sleep]: He seems to be... he seems to be hinting that I should use new couple profile pictures.
She finally understood why Pei Yan had used that tone!
【Qinglan】: And then what did you reply?
[Summer Sleep]: I said I wouldn't change.
【Qinglan】：……
[Qinglan]: How did you even manage to date the school heartthrob with your emotional intelligence!
【Qinglan】: I'm really impressed by you!
Xia Mian does not believe that she has a problem with emotional intelligence.
They were all ordinary people, and everyone made mistakes in their dealings with others. Moreover, Pei Yan was too tolerant of her, so much so that she couldn't sense his little emotions.
But since she had already realized that he might be unhappy, she naturally took the initiative to coax him and made a phone call right away.
Hello hello~
"I sent you a WeChat message! I picked out several couples, and I like one of them the most. Do you want to choose one and see if we're the same?"
Xia Mian sent Pei Yan several couple profile pictures that she had just selected.
Pei Yan didn't immediately choose one, but instead asked, "Aren't you planning to continue using matching profile pictures with your best friend?"
"Are you really jealous?" Xia Mian confirmed.
“Actually, I’m very grateful to Qinglan. She’s like our matchmaker.” Pei Yan didn’t answer directly. Instead, he sighed, “If you hadn’t mistaken me for her at the beginning, if I hadn’t been chatting with you as her, we might not have had the chance to be together.”
“But it’s true,” Pei Yan continued, his tone remarkably candid, “I still get jealous of Qinglan.”
"I can smell your jealousy, even if it's a little slow," Xia Mian coaxed him with a smile. "Don't be jealous, let's change our profile pictures together, okay, Pei Yan?"
"good."
Her cheerful personality always gets Pei Yan excited, and Pei Yan is super easy to please.
Almost at the same time, they both changed their profile pictures and then looked at each other's chosen pictures.
A kitten facing the sea and a puppy facing the sea.
It's a meeting of minds.
"Pei Yan, I really want to go to the beach with you," Xia Mian said, looking at the profile picture. "Unfortunately, I've been very busy lately."
Busy with papers, busy with experiments, busy with exams.
"Besides looking at the sea, what else do you want to do?" Pei Yan asked casually.
"Ah, I also want to..." Xia Mian was about to launch into a long speech when she stopped and muttered, "It sounds a bit strange to say it like this, like I'm making a wish to you and then insisting that you fulfill it."
Xia Mian wondered if Pei Yan would feel pressured by this, or perhaps, that such a direct explanation lacked a certain freshness and surprise.
Pei Yan seemed to agree with her idea. After thinking for a while, he said gently, "Alright, then I'll guess."
As Pei Yan guessed, Xia Mian was greeted with a continuous stream of surprises.
He would suddenly appear at the back door of the laboratory and wave to her through the glass window.
He would learn to wrap a mini bouquet with swallowtail paper and pin it to her chest.
On the day of the first snow, he would give her a pair of cashmere knee pads and wrap a sky-blue scarf around her neck.
He will...
He sang "Pink Lightning" to Xia Mian face to face, holding her hand the whole time.
Xia Mian loves his gentle smile when he sings.
I also like his emphasis on the song being 5 minutes and 20 seconds long in a certain "deliberate" way.
Summer Sleep sighed countless times in her heart:
And Xixi, it turns out I really am the luckiest person in the world.
Xia Mian is really happy to be with Pei Yan.
However, even amidst the joy, there are also minor annoyances.
For example, she no longer dared to share videos of handsome men with Pei Yan, for fear that the jealous king would become jealous.
For example, Pei Yanchao likes to hug her, and he always hugs her for a long time without letting go, which makes her feel hot even in early winter.
For example...
They had been dating for a month, but Pei Yan still hadn't kissed her.
Everything has its "instigator," and Xia Mian truly recalled Pei Yan's question before class in early November.
Ugh, Pei Yan is so mean!
Just because she rejected him the first time, he never brought it up again?
Don't couples who don't kiss seem strange?
To solve this problem, Xia Mian began to make proactive arrangements.
Including but not limited to various hints:
I shared a post about romantic moments between couples, and one of the posts mentioned an intimate kiss between lovers.
When Pei Yan hugged her, she wrapped her arms tightly around his neck, her cheeks gently rubbing against the back of his neck like a cat.
Indeed, there were several times when she clearly felt that Pei Yan wanted to kiss her.
Because she could feel his Adam's apple bobbing, hear his uneven breathing, or feel a tightening around her waist as he held her even tighter.
However, Pei Yan did not take any further steps.
His lukewarm attitude finally annoyed Xia Mian. While strolling on campus, Pei Yan held her hand, but she suddenly stopped in front of a pine tree, looked up at Pei Yan unhappily.
Do you still remember what my first wish was as I watched the sunset?
She noticed the astonishment in Pei Yan's eyes, and seemed even more aggrieved: "You seem to have forgotten."
“I haven’t forgotten,” Pei Yan said, “but I’m afraid you might be mistaken, or that you used to want to but don’t now. If you’re not ready, I can wait.”
Not ready? Are you going to keep waiting?
She knew it! Pei Yan really did it because of that one sentence!
We have to do something to break this deadlock!
Xia Mian mumbled in a whisper, barely audible, "Pei Yan, give me a kiss."
"What did you say?" Pei Yan raised his eyebrows, as if he hadn't heard clearly.
She cleared her throat, raised her voice, and said again, "Kiss me!"
Seeing that he didn't act, Xia Mian really transformed into a bouncy little kitten, repeatedly making that request: "Kiss me, kiss me!..."
"So, are you ready now?" Pei Yan asked directly.
"Huh?" Xia Mian was taken aback.
"Hmm..."
The next second, Pei Yan closed his eyes, leaned down, and kissed her lips.
His slightly cool hands gently cupped her face, and his thin lips delicately traced the outline of her rosy and soft lips.
Pei Yan's kiss was initially awkward, but then became extremely tender, constantly guiding her on how to return the kiss and how to breathe. It was so gentle that it made her dizzy, and his warm breath sprayed on her face. She almost melted in this first kiss.
So... his lips really are that soft, but she doesn't yet have the skill to bite them open, and she seems a little reluctant to do so, so she just returns the kiss, closes her eyes, and wraps her arms around his neck.
When the kiss ended, she was breathing heavily and leaned on Pei Yan's shoulder to catch her breath. She dared not look into his eyes again and buried her head in his arms.
"Why did you actually kiss me..."
She clutched at his chest, asking in a muffled voice, sounding like a complaint, yet also like a coquettish plea.
Pei Yan's kiss landed on her forehead again, a gentle peck that vanished in an instant. "Don't you want a real kiss yet? How long do you want me to hold back?"
He spoke, his voice hoarse, his forehead pressed against hers, his eyes lowered as he gazed at her, his love undisguised.
"So, do you like it? My happy little cat."
