Chapter 88 - The Mafia King Asks For A Kiss
Chapter 88 - The Mafia King Asks For A Kiss
The cold raindrops splashed on his face and an incredibly pleasant sensation warmed his heart even in that freezing atmosphere. At that moment, Wei allowed himself to forget his title as the Mafia King and the CEO that always weighed him down like chains binding his feet. He let the water wash away all his responsibilities and simply let the first rain overwhelm him.
He stared down at Lihua, who was silently watching him. She smiled. "It feels nice, right?"
So many emotions jumbled his heart that he felt too choked up to say anything. It felt as if something shattered inside him that always stopped him from seeing the world from Lihua's perspective.
She grinned. "Do you still want to worry if we will catch a cold? Even if we did, so what? We will get better, but this feeling of standing in the first rain will never come again."
Her sweet laughter rang in the air. She hopped and ran around the garden, feeling the roaring splashing of raindrops on her cheeks. Wei watched in a stupor. He lowered his gaze and saw his wet palms. As he lifted his eyes, he saw the apparition of his five-year-old self, extending his small hands in the rain that were finally wet by the raindrops. His past child self who wanted to get wet in the rain but couldn't.
The adult Wei whispered, "It feels nice, doesn't it? You... always wanted this, right?"
The child Wei raised his head and stared at him. Slowly, a bright smile curved his lips upwards. His eyes shone in joy. He nodded hard.
"Ah Boss!"
Wei snapped out from his daze. The small Wei disappeared. He looked at Lihua who accidentally fell into the fountain.
She sobbed. "Ah Boss, I slipped."
Being the ditzy and clumsy Lihua that she was, it was to be expected.
His eyes widened and he rushed towards her. "Lihua! Are you hurt? Give me your hand."
Lihua clutched his hand, and a glint shone in her eyes. She suddenly pulled him inside the fountain. A splash echoed the garden as Wei fell into it.
"Hahaha! You fell for it," she laughed.
Wei shook away the excess water and blinked his eyes. "You aren't hurt?"
"Nope. Hehe, I tricked you. This feels like double rain! The rain from the clouds and the rain from the fountain! Awesome right?" Lihua laughed.
A smile lifted his lips. Looking at her having so much fun and laughing as she splashed the water made Wei feel how lucky he was to meet her. He grabbed her arm and pulled her towards him. His arm snaked around her waist and his black irises bored into hers. If previously Lihua didn't shudder because of the cold, she did this time as she felt him seriously observing her.
Her lips quivered as she softly spoke, "Boss you are unfair."
He tilted his head. "How?"
"You arranged so much for me to celebrate tonight, but I didn't give you anything. If I knew about it earlier, I would have also planned a surprise for you. It's our first event we are celebrating together. I gave you nothing, and now I feel horrible."
Wei lifted her chin and his eyes squinted. "Who said you gave me nothing? You gave me my first dream I ever wished for. You made it alive and breathing. I am living my dream, Lihua. It is real and only because of you. What I did for you feels nothing in comparison."
Lihua asked, "Dream?"
He mysteriously smiled. "En."
She still felt skeptical about her contribution. "Really? Maybe you are just spoiling me again…"
Wei thought about it for a moment and said, "You wish to give me something?"
She nodded.
"Then Lihua...kiss me."
Lihua froze. She looked at him, dumbfounded. "K-Kiss?"
"En."
Her cheeks flushed red and she couldn't look at him anymore. "H-How can a kiss be enough against your surprise?"
"It is for me. Lihua. I want you to kiss me."
A shiver ran down her spine as his husky voice urged her. "I-I really doubt it would be enough…" she said in a meek voice.
Wei slyly smiled. "I can always ask for more."
"..."
He pressed her waist until their chests collided. He bumped his forehead on hers. "Lihua please…"
Her eyelashes trembled as she gazed at his pleading expression. Yet, there was a faint trace of deviousness in it. Even in that cold rain, she felt his warm breath fanning her cheeks. "T-this...I don't know how to k-kiss…"
He raised his brow. "But you know. You kissed me before when we slept together."
"!!!"
Ah, why are you just casually reminding me of the time when I took advantage of you!?
Lihua felt utterly embarrassed. She lost all her face. Suddenly, Wei pressed their bodies together, even more, startling her.
"Don't make me wait, Lihua or…" he stared at her luscious red lips on which the raindrops seductively trickled down, making a gulp pass down his throat. "I won't be able to hold myself any longer."
Lihua blushed furiously. She took the support of his shoulders and steadied her feet as she finally steeled herself to look back into his black irises. Just like Wei, Lihua swallowed a gulp too, as she saw the droplets sexily gliding along his sharp jawline and towards his neckline. In this intimate position under the rain, she couldn't help herself but do as Wei said. Amidst the falling rain and as they floated in the fountain, she slowly inched towards him and pressed her lips on his.
His gaze darkened as her wet lips tremblingly kissed him. Even though Lihua had kissed him before, she was still a novice at kissing. She didn't move or deepen the kiss as she found herself clueless.
At that time, Wei was asleep when she had initiated the kiss. He wasn't awake to observe her, so she somehow got her confidence from that fact. But at this moment, Wei was looking at her. He was observing her. His deep gaze was only focused on her. Wei had never touched a woman before, but he still always expertly took the charge whenever he kissed her.
W-what should I do now?
