Gu Ximan's eyelashes trembled slightly like the wings of a frightened butterfly.
The tips of their noses almost touched, and she could see her own reflection in Gu Luo's pupils—
Those eyes that always smiled were now filled with shock and unconcealable joy. The lips under the fingertips were trembling slightly, like glass heated by the sun.
The wind blew up cattails that had come from nowhere, and the fluff brushed past the watch on Gu Luo's wrist. The sound of the second hand ticking was particularly clear in this silent environment.
"Xiao Man..." Gu Luo's voice came through his palm, with a broken and hoarse sound.
Gu Ximan could clearly see the shadow cast by Gu Luo's long eyelashes. The next second, he bent his palm and pressed the back of his hand against her lips.
At the same time, the lips kissed her hard - through a layer of warm skin, the two lips formed a wonderful fit in the layer of palms.
Gu Ximan could even feel the shape of his lip lines and the sudden tremor from his lips.
Time froze into amber at this moment.
Gu Ximan smelled the scent of soapberry lingering on her fingertips, mixed with the smell of school uniform fabric warmed by the sun, and an indescribable scent belonging to Gu Luoyu.
Her wide-open eyes were once again covered with mist, and her hand on Gu Luo's chest unconsciously clenched his collar.
The kiss across the palm was not soft, and even a little rough.
But it was like an electric current suddenly running through her limbs and bones, making the cold tea brown-haired girl forget to breathe and think, and all that was left was the warmth and throbbing of the young man's lips coming from her palms.
Gu Luo's kiss slid from the back of her hand to her wrist, his fingertips still carefully protecting her lips, as if they were fragile porcelain.
His eyes are clearer than ever.
He looked at Gu Ximan's watery eyes and suddenly chuckled, with a sigh of relief in his laughter:
"Brother even has to use his hands to kiss you..."
After a brief pause, he exhaled softly:
"Xiao Man, you're the silly little girl I've raised since childhood. I don't know how I should face your feelings, really."
"I can feel your affection for me, the affection between a man and a woman, but... I'm sorry, I can't give you an answer right now."
"But if Xiao Man is willing, I will officially treat you as an adolescent girl of the same age. I will officially agree to your request after I have dealt with the relationship between Shu Ning and Shu He."
"Actually...I've been sinking into unconscious depravity all along, deceiving myself. I've been indecisive and hesitant in my relationships. In the end, I've not only hurt myself, but you too."
"After a few days of reflection, I've finally understood that when it comes to relationships, you must never hesitate. You must say everything you want to say. Once you hesitate and don't communicate, it will lead to all kinds of misunderstandings, causing lovers to hurt each other and drift further and further apart."
"I don't want to have any more regrets or pain, and I'm ready to have my legs broken and be kicked out of my home."
“This is my answer.”
Gu Luo's words were sincere and meaningful.
Shu Ning's actions of throwing envelopes, saying harsh words, and getting into other boys' cars were really hurtful.
It not only hurts others, but also hurts yourself.
This is equivalent to an open conspiracy, an open conspiracy against oneself.
Luo Shuning's idea is simple, naive and extreme, because no matter how difficult the reasons are, no one will forgive such a thing.
Two people who like each other end up hurting each other.
How funny.
How ironic.
Feelings are really too complicated, like a bottle of magic potion. Once you drink it, you may become a completely different person at any time.
After hearing this, Gu Ximan suddenly grabbed his wrist and forcefully moved his hand away from between their lips.
The afternoon breeze just happened to lift the ends of her hair.
Brushed across Gu Luo's cheek.
Gu Ximan moved forward with the courage to burn her boats, and her cherry lips pressed accurately against his lips——
This time, there was no obstruction.
The sunlight filtered through the railings of the rooftop, weaving a golden grid among their overlapping shadows.
The noise of Guangya students could be heard in the distance, but it became a vague background sound, leaving only the warmth between lips and teeth.
And that heartbeat that came too long ago, belonging to each other.
Gu Luo's body was as stiff as the iron railings on the rooftop, and he even forgot to breathe.
When the girl's warm lips covered his - his mind immediately emerged that night in the cafe, when Gu Ximan kissed him in this posture. Including the forced kiss in the dream, this should be the third time they kissed.
Gu Ximan's kiss had the awkwardness of a first kiss, but at the same time it was filled with a fierce determination to never give up.
I don’t know how long it took.
Just as Gu Luo's fingertips curled up unconsciously and were about to touch her waist, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his lips.
The smell of rust quickly spread in the mouths of both men.
Gu Ximan stood up and took a few steps back with trembling legs. There was a glaring red on her cherry lips, like a maple leaf fallen in the snow.
"First, take care of the matter with Sister Ning and Sister He..."
Her voice trembled, and her fingertips nervously twisted the lace edge of her pleated skirt. "I...I'm just trying to catch my breath!"
After saying that, Gu Ximan sat down in her seat, tilted her head, and fanned her hot cheeks quickly with her two small hands.
The sleeves of the school uniform slid down, revealing half of the fair wrist, which shone like pearls in the sunlight.
The wind lifted the ends of her hair, and the cold tea-brown hair brushed across the back of Gu Luo's hand, leaving a slight itch.
