Chapter 779: Chapter 778: Confession (8)
Shi Che’s intention was merely to tease Ling Chuxia. With her thin skin, he was sure she wouldn’t dare to make any moves, but to his surprise, she actually kissed him directly.
While Shi Che was still stunned, she took his lips in hers, imitating his way of prying at his teeth. Shi Che stood dazed, letting her intrude, allowing her to recklessly sweep through without restraint.
Then Ling Chuxia straightened up, raising her eyebrows triumphantly, with her adorable chin lifted in a defiant pose.
It took Shi Che about a dozen seconds to snap out of his shock. After that, his gaze fixed on Ling Chuxia’s appearance, and a blaze suddenly erupted within him, racing through his body at breakneck speed, focusing intently on Ling Chuxia’s dark pupils, which too began to burn with flames.
Ling Chuxia had no idea how enchanting she looked at that moment.
She reminded him of the mischievous, never-surrendering Ling Chuxia of their childhood who, whenever she got into trouble and was caught by Mrs. Shi, Mrs. Shi would always ask if she knew she was wrong. While most would meekly admit their mistakes to avoid punishment, she would always hold her little head up high, her black and white eyes staring straight at Mrs. Shi.
Back then, Mrs. Shi was an imposing figure, a powerhouse in the business world that many men dared not look in the eye, yet she wasn’t afraid at all. She simply gazed at Mrs. Shi and answered loudly, "I am not wrong."
Even if Mrs. Shi ordered her to kneel as punishment or hit her hands with a paddle, she wouldn’t make a sound, nor would she submit.
At that time, his eyes could hardly move away from her. Such a small body harbored such immense energy; she lived the life he wanted to live, the one he felt he couldn’t.
Then, from attention to obsession, and from obsession to deep love, he watched himself sink deeper, watching himself become helplessly ensnared.
Ling Chuxia had simply wanted to assert herself, not expecting that after she kissed Shi Che, his gaze would suddenly turn intense. His eyes seemed fixed on her, no, they seemed glued to her, causing her body to tremble involuntarily. Realizing something was amiss, she instinctively wanted to flee, but as soon as her feet touched the ground, her slender waist was pulled back by an iron arm, and the next second, she was pressed back onto the bed.
Shi Che hovered over her, his hands bracing on either side of her cheeks, the corner of his lips wickedly arching up, "Chuxia, you kiss me and then run? Huh?"
All of Ling Chuxia’s courage had dissipated, and she blinked her large eyes, her voice soft and melodic, "What if I said it wasn’t intentional, would you believe me?"
Shi Che smiled, but replied directly, "I wouldn’t."
Ling Chuxia’s red lips puckered, "Then what do you want to do?"
Shi Che’s dark eyes narrowed deeply, his lips slowly parting, enunciating each word, "I’ll return it tenfold!"
As the words fell, he didn’t say anything more and leaned down, kissing Ling Chuxia deeply. His kiss was scorching, as if his burning heat could ignite her in an instant.
Ling Chuxia’s heart was still trembling, but enveloped in his kiss, her body gradually heated up as well, her dark eyes closing, kissing him back with earnest.
Sunlight gently shone, a soft breeze fluttered, and the couple inside were entwined as passionately as fire, the envy of anyone who witnessed.

When they arrived in Provence, it was already evening. The setting sun slowly dipped westward, casting the remaining golden light over a vast sea of flowers, stunningly breathtaking.
