The second kiss lasted for an unknown amount of time, and when it ended, Pei Xi's lips were somewhat numb.
After they separated, she looked at Jiang Cheng's face, gently touching her lips with her fingertips, and asked him hesitantly, "Have you kissed enough?"
“...Hmm.” Jiang Cheng let out a sound.
It's simply not enough.
But we can't kiss anymore, something bad will happen.
Pei Xi nodded. He had kissed him so fiercely just now; his lips must be numb.
But for some reason, she always felt that there was something left unsatisfied.
Kissing feels so good.
Or perhaps, kissing Jiang Cheng feels so good.
The touch of moist, warm lips and tongues can send shivers down your spine and make your legs feel weak.
Pei Xi thought to himself, "He's really smart. He can learn anything so quickly, even kissing."
Pei Xi gently wrapped her arms around his waist again, her forehead resting affectionately against his chest.
She whispered in his arms, "So, what am I to you now?"
Jiang Cheng's Adam's apple bobbed, and he raised his arm to embrace her, his voice low and deep: "...Girlfriend."
He exhaled deeply, his dark eyes flickering as if glistening with water.
Pei Xi smiled, looked up at him and said, "Okay, boyfriend."
She suddenly felt that these three words had a strange magic, and even saying them made her feel sweet.
It seems she has finally given Jiang Cheng his approval.
From now on, she can openly say that this is her boyfriend.
Hers.
She's all alone.
The two hugged quietly for a while, then Pei Xi suddenly said, "I think I'm hungry."
She's been traveling for several hours and hasn't eaten yet.
Moreover, I've heard that kissing burns a lot of calories. I kissed for so long just now, I wonder how many calories I burned.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng quickly released her, saying, "Then I'll go get the vegetables."
After saying that, he turned around to get the food. Pei Xi watched his back and said, "You kissed him for too long. The food must be cold."
Jiang Cheng stumbled.
After two seconds, he said in a low voice, "Wait a moment, I'll go heat it up in the microwave."
Pei Xi smiled and said, "Okay."
She got off the table and waited for Jiang Cheng to heat it up. She took out her phone and found several new messages.
It was sent by Pei Zhi.
Pei Xi quickly opened the chat box. He seemed to be in a hurry, sending several messages in a row.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
"You went to the studio?"
Where are you sleeping tonight?
Why aren't you replying to my messages?
"??!! Why haven't they come back after all this time??!!"
"If you don't reply soon, I'll book your plane ticket!!"
Pei Xi was both amused and exasperated by him. Just as she was about to reply, she saw a message from Pei Ruoyun.
She quickly clicked on it.
It's just a short sentence.
"Don't worry, Mom has already held your brother down."
Pei Xi chuckled.
She typed "okay" in reply, and then replied to Pei Zhi's message.
Jiang Cheng saw her smiling and asked gently, "Are you texting Pei Zhi?"
Pei Xi nodded. "He asked me where I was sleeping tonight."
Jiang Cheng was taken aback, then said, "Sleep here tonight, and I'll find you a hotel tomorrow."
“Okay, sure.” Pei Xi nodded.
Then she asked, "Are you sleeping on the sofa?"
Jiang Cheng: "Mm."
Pei Xi frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and looked at him, saying, "Actually, you can sleep in the bed."
Jiang Cheng: "?"
An incredulous look of astonishment appeared on Jiang Cheng's face.
Pei Xi immediately realized that her statement was ambiguous, and she quickly explained, "What I meant was, I can sleep on the sofa because I'm shorter than you. You're so tall, it must be uncomfortable for you to sleep on it."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng smiled helplessly.
He walked over with the groceries, placed them on the table, and then looked down at Pei Xi. "What kind of person do you take me for, letting your girlfriend sleep on the sofa?"
Pei Xi was startled.
Then he blinked.
Self, girlfriend, friend.
These words... sound so pleasing to the ear.
A sweet smile bloomed on her face. She took Jiang Cheng's arm and shook it playfully a couple of times, saying, "Then I'll have to trouble you for a bit, boyfriend."
Jiang Cheng's eyebrows curved slightly. "I'm not wronged."
The food was quickly heated up. Jiang Cheng ordered four dishes, all of which suited Pei Xi's taste.
While they were eating, the sound of firecrackers celebrating the New Year rang out outside again. Pei Xi suddenly realized that they had agreed to watch fireworks together, but the two of them had only seen one firework and hadn't seen what the rest looked like.
They were so engrossed in kissing that they didn't even notice each other.
Her ears felt slightly hot.
After finishing their meal, Jiang Cheng cleaned up the mess, while Pei Xi went to the bathroom to wash up.
After washing up, Jiang Cheng set up the projector, and the two of them sat on the sofa to watch the Spring Festival Gala.
The party was in a joyous and lively atmosphere. Pei Xi sat next to Jiang Cheng, but couldn't concentrate on anything. Looking at Jiang Cheng's handsome profile, she inexplicably wanted to kiss him.
But she managed to suppress her impulse.
She simply took his arm honestly.
After a while, Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a weight on his shoulder. He turned his head and saw that Pei Xi had closed his eyes and fallen asleep.
She must have been very tired today; her eyes were closed tightly, and there were some wrinkles between her brows.
Jiang Cheng gently supported her head, then slowly stood up and picked her up in his arms.
He gently placed her on the bed and covered her with a blanket.
After gazing at her sleeping face for a while, he leaned down and placed a soft, feather-like kiss on her forehead.
He reached out and ruffled her hair, then said in a very low voice, "Goodnight, baby."
As he stood up, Pei Xi suddenly opened his eyes, his amber eyes looking at him with a warm and gentle gaze.
Jiang Cheng was momentarily stunned, and then the next second, before he could retract his hand, it was grasped.
“I caught you.” Pei Xi said with a smile.
Meanwhile, the countdown to the New Year's Eve party could be heard outside.
During the five-second countdown, neither of them moved. Just as the host called out the last number, Pei Xi held his hand and whispered, "Happy New Year, boyfriend."
She paused for a moment, then said, "Happy New Year, Cheng."
