The cherries are tempting, and the fish are willing to take the bait.
But the fish seemed to have other ideas about the angler.
"...Not very good." Lu Yu remained silent for a while before speaking.
Jiao Yuyin watched as the struggle on Lu Yu's face gradually subsided.
"Why?" he asked in a low voice.
"I don't want the relationship to become more complicated, and... I don't need your sympathy." Lu Yu couldn't analyze the situation in depth, so she could only speak her mind directly.
“More?” Jiao Yuyin picked up the glass from the ground, his voice unusually clear. “So you’ve already realized that we’re in a complicated and peculiar relationship right now.”
Jiao Yuyin placed the empty glass on the table, his probing gaze sweeping over the object through his glasses.
“Lu Yu, every night you hold my hand as you fall asleep, guess what I’m thinking? I’ve changed all my toiletries to raspberry scent, so I can convince myself that I’m not after your occasional body fragrance.”
Jiao Yuyin pressed on relentlessly, saying, "Every time I stand at the alleyway opposite the training base to greet you, watching you walk towards me, I'm secretly counting down the days until the Olympics. You share your progress with me every day, including today, when you excitedly told me you've officially become a key player. I should be happy for you, but do you know how despicable I am?"
Jiao Yuyin sighed, “I didn’t even want to see this outcome. Your Olympic journey might be the end of our entire relationship. I can’t even imagine that day. I used the warmth of family that we both lacked to lure you into my trap.”
"So, Lu Yu, do you think this is sympathy?"
Lu Yu felt her blood churning, and she completely lost the ability to think.
"Why did you suddenly say that?" Lu Yu asked instinctively.
"Lu Yu, because I like you."
Patchouli, raspberry, and moist milk scents mingled together, all the aromas spraying out in front of Lu Yu at once.
Lu Yu never imagined that those pointless arguments and sudden awkward moments could be explained by the word "like".
Jiao Yuyin said he liked her, but what about her? Was her dependence on Jiao Yuyin and her desire to confide in him a sign of liking him?
The cup filled with milk was slowly tilted in Lu Yu's hands.
Jiao Yuyin reacted quickly and managed to catch it and place it on the table.
"Lu Yu, you said today that if you want to pursue me, then go for it. That's what I'm doing now." Jiao Yuyin stepped forward and gently embraced her, his voice lingering in her ear, "If you haven't figured out how you feel about me, then don't say anything. This isn't a confession; it's a signal that I'm going to pursue you."
Lu Yu's teeth were chattering as she nuzzled against the man's neck. Warmth was the only word that came to mind.
Lu Yu didn't want to categorize human emotions; all she knew was that at this moment, Jiao Yuyin was someone she didn't want to leave.
The cherries are ripe, bright red, and delicious.
The fish only need to bite the bait to be caught by the angler.
...
Lu Yu's every action is driven by instinctual desires.
Lu Yu, nestled in the warmth of her neck, opened her pearly teeth and began to suck and nibble.
She could clearly feel the other person's embrace tighten suddenly, their breathing become erratic, and their chest heaved a few times, trembling erratically like her own teeth chattering.
"Little fish, do you know what you're doing?"
"Um……"
The muffled sound shattered all reason.
Jiao Yuyin embraced her, raised his head slightly, and closed his eyelids, as if he had shed his restrained exterior.
Lu Yu read a possessive desire in his eyes when he opened them again.
The next instant, Lu Yu felt a tingling sensation between her lips.
Jiao Yuyin supported Lu Yu's head with one hand, while the fingertips of his other hand caressed Lu Yu's earlobe.
The hug was very tight.
The hand movements were gentle.
The sucking between the lips and tongue was extremely forceful.
The sudden impact ripped away all her thoughts. Every drop of blood in her body was stained with his invading desire, gradually boiling and burning.
Just a short while ago, Jiao Yuyin was discussing cooperative models for family relationships with her, and now he's kissing her so brazenly.
Lu Yu passively responded to the kiss, which was a mix of gentleness and strength, until the feeling of suffocation deepened.
"Um……"
Lu Yu tilted her head back and turned her face away, finally able to get some fresh air and breathe through her mouth.
Jiao Yuyin looked at Lu Yu, whose face was flushed, and knew that she was holding back her anger. He was originally going to let Lu Yu off the hook...
But as she breathed, the tip of her tongue, which appeared faintly, burned his eyes.
Jiao Yuyin turned Lu Yu's face towards him and slowly leaned closer, "I'll teach you..." His voice and breath followed closely, "Kiss."
Jiao Yuyin's breath grew closer and closer until his lips brushed against hers.
"Now, inhale."
His lips were still pressed against the corner of hers, but his commanding voice seemed to be infused with the fragrance of sandalwood, captivating and enchanting.
A chaotic rush of air filled Lu Yu's nostrils, her lips parted slightly as she was relentlessly taken from.
"Exhale, you can...slow down."
The sound was broken up in the kiss.
Following the mumbled instructions, Lu Yu exhaled from her lungs and felt the delicate kisses.
It's unclear how much time passed before Jiao Yuyin finally released her.
The milk on the counter has cooled down.
On the basketball court, Sun Meng had already demonstrated three different crossover dribbling techniques to Qin Meng...
