Chapter 705: Chapter 704 I Only Have You Now (6)
Shi Che’s lips landing on hers emptied Chuxia’s mind in that moment; she had not anticipated that Shi Che would suddenly kiss her, causing her eyes to widen in sheer astonishment.
A few seconds into the kiss, Shi Che abruptly stopped, pulling back slightly from her lips, and then in a husky voice, said, "Chuxia, close your eyes."
Whether she hadn’t had time to react, or it was just a reflex, as soon as Shi Che spoke, Chuxia unconsciously closed her eyes, and the next second, Shi Che’s lips covered hers once more.
Chuxia’s lips were as soft as he remembered; he had once thought he would never be able to kiss her again, to taste the sweetness of her lips, but God had ultimately been kind to him.
Shi Che’s heart surged fiercely, his body overflowing with heat, causing the force of his kiss on Chuxia to intensify, his breathing slowly becoming more rapid—the preciousness of long-awaited reunion made everything extra sweet.
Chuxia had been standing there in a daze, letting Shi Che kiss her without any particular technique—simply following his instincts, bit by bit releasing the excitement and boiling emotion suppressed within him, conveying his feelings to her and stirring her emotions in turn.
For so long, she had deeply hidden and restrained her feelings, but in this moment, they were unleashed uncontrollably. The man before her, she loved him; she no longer needed any excuses or let any reasons hold her back. She was free to love him, to truly love him.
The greater the desperation before, the more exhilarating the excitement now.
Chuxia’s hands shot up, wrapping around Shi Che’s neck; her lips parted slightly, welcoming his kiss and even beginning to respond slowly.
Feeling Chuxia’s response was like adding fuel to the fire raging in Shi Che’s heart—his black eyes suddenly deepened, and his arms tightened around her even more fiercely, almost as if he wanted to embed her into his body.
Chuxia felt some pain from his tight embrace, but she didn’t struggle at all. The pain was somehow sweet, reassuring her that she wasn’t dreaming, that everything was real, utterly real.
The air around them heated up gradually; in the silence of the hospital room, the only sounds were the indistinct noises between their lips and teeth. It seemed even the moon in the night sky became shy, hiding behind dark clouds.
After what felt like an eternity, Shi Che finally lifted his lips from hers. He held her close, his breathing ragged in her ear, his warm breaths spilling onto her earlobe.
After a while, his breathing steadied, and his deep voice resonated once more, tinged with a hint of lingering tenderness, "Chuxia, does this answer your question?"
He paused, then continued, "From now on, don’t ask such silly questions."
"Don’t ask such silly questions again..."
Chuxia, still trying to calm her scattered breaths and erratic heartbeat, felt her heart pound fiercely yet again at his words.
She lowered her gaze, unable to stop the moisture from welling up in her eyes, her nose slightly sour, her throat a bit hoarse, "Shi Che, all I have is you."
It turned out she hadn’t lost everything; she could still have him.
"Mm, you have me, and that’s enough," Shi Che said, his voice lazy yet firm.
She only had him, and he would give her the whole world.
