Ling Chuxia had not anticipated his move, her eyes wide with astonishment until he kissed her; only then did she come to her senses, immediately pressing her hands against Shi Che's chest, "Shi Che, what are you doing?"
Weren't they supposed to get out of bed and head to Pulomansi now?
Shi Che's lips grazed hers gently, a slow smile emerging in his eyes as if he found her question incredibly naive, his voice raspy, "Obviously, I'm..."
Those last two words, crude and direct, caused Ling Chuxia's cheeks to redden instantly, "You, you... you..."
She stammered several "yous" without being able to finish her sentence.
Shi Che, however, raised his eyebrows, his voice playfully continuing to tease her, "What about me?"
Ling Chuxia felt a rush of blood and found it hard to breathe. Despite their intimacy, sometimes the words he said still left her feeling shy and at a loss.
