Jiang Tian smiled and cupped his face in her hands. Lips met lips, and as soon as she kissed him, a large blush spread across Li Xiu's pale face.
Before long, he took the initiative and became the master of the house.
His aggression was completely different from his verbal pleas.
He savored her almost greedily.
It was as if a passerby who was about to die of thirst had seen a clear spring.
When the kiss ended, Jiang Tian's lips were slightly red, swollen, and cracked.
After regaining his senses from the atmosphere, Li Xiu stared at Jiang Tian and realized the good deed he had done.
His brows furrowed immediately, and without saying a word, he went into the living room.
Not long after, he came in carrying a first-aid kit.
Jiang Tian watched as he silently opened the first-aid kit and skillfully applied medicine to her. His jawline was tense, no longer as gentle as before, and she couldn't help but touch his head.
"Don't feel guilty. We've just gotten together and are still adjusting to each other. There will always be unexpected things that we need to face and solve together. If you keep giving me that long face, I'll be unhappy."
Li Xiu slowed his movements and looked at Jiang Tian with some heartache: "...Okay."
After they lay down again, Li Xiu couldn't fall asleep for a long time.
The better Jiang Tian treated him, the more panicked he became.
What should Jiang Tian do if she discovers that he is a particularly imperfect person?
He doesn't even know how to kiss properly...
"Go to sleep quickly."
Jiang Tian wrapped her arms around his waist, gently reminding him.
Seeing that Jiang Tian's lips had improved considerably, Li Xiu slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
He patted Jiang Tian on the back: "Go to sleep."
Jiang Tian said helplessly, "If you can't sleep, how can I? If you have any questions, you can tell me. We're a couple, not strangers."
Li Xiu found it difficult to speak.
He found himself utterly useless.
The two stared at each other. Li Xiu realized that if he didn't voice his confusion, Jiang Tian would stay up with him.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Xiu voiced his concerns.
"I don't think I know how to be in a relationship. Even kissing...it hurts you. I'm afraid I'll make more and more mistakes in the future, and then you won't like me anymore..."
Once he sheds his disguise, he is always plagued by anxieties and uncertainties.
"If you don't know how, then learn. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. I'm really fine. You're just treating me like a fragile doll. Since you've realized you don't know how to kiss, let's kiss every day starting tomorrow."
Li Xiu looked surprised.
Then, Jiang Tian yawned and lay down in his arms.
"Now, you need to get some sleep."
When Li Xiu heard the words "kissing every day," fireworks seemed to flash through his mind.
He hadn't expected Jiang Tian to give him such an answer.
For some reason, he should have been troubled by this, since his insomnia had always been very severe. Any small thing that disrupted his life could cause him to stay up all night.
However, when the two of them slept neck to neck, he found that gazing at Jiang Tian's sleeping face brought him immense peace of mind.
Before he knew it, sleepiness had overtaken him.
He fell asleep too.
The next day, Li Xiu was suddenly awakened from his sleep.
The other side of the bed is empty.
He was filled with immense panic. Was last night... all a dream?
As he was thinking, he saw the open wardrobe, with Jiang Tian's clothes already hanging inside, including a dress that he had seen her wear before.
In an instant, Li Xiu seemed to be comforted.
His breathing gradually became steady.
At that moment, Jiang Tian walked in.
Li Xiu met her gaze, his voice carrying a sense of relief that even he himself didn't realize.
"Where did you go? I thought I was dreaming."
Jiang Tian was amused by him and touched a tuft of hair that was sticking up on his head.
“I went to cook breakfast. I can’t stay idle in the morning. My biological clock is naturally early. Since you weren’t awake yet, I took the liberty of making you breakfast. You won’t complain, will you? I can only make Chinese breakfast.”
When Li Xiu heard that Jiang Tian had cooked for him, a sweet feeling welled up in his heart.
"I will definitely get up earlier from now on, so you don't need to go into the kitchen anymore."
Realizing what was happening, Li Xiu quickly made a promise.
He didn't know why he slept so soundly; it seemed like the first time in so many days that he had slept without any burden, and he didn't have a headache when he woke up.
“That won’t do. Cooking is one of my hobbies, and we can divide the work. For example, I can make breakfast, and you can make lunch and dinner, or we can work together to cook every meal. Since we live together, you and I should both be involved in our lives, understand?”
Li Xiu discovered that Jiang Tian was truly skilled in the art of language.
He couldn't bring himself to say such a thing.
He stared blankly at Jiang Tian, about to kiss her, when he realized he hadn't washed up yet, and his face flushed unconsciously.
He then hurriedly went to the bathroom to wash up.
When he looked in the mirror, he realized that his hair was sticking up.
He actually faced Jiang Tian with this expression...
Li Xiu wished he could turn back time.
However, when Li Xiu reappeared, he had returned to his previous aloof and indifferent state.
His handsome face was still very striking.
His expression softened as soon as he saw Jiang Tian.
Jiang Tian looked at him and pointed to her lips.
Li Xiu's eyes widened slightly: "What...what are you doing?"
