F*ck your mom, a long french kiss? Song Xuanhe narrowed his eyes, not saying a word. However, inwardly, he was systematically cursing at all of Zhou Nan’s ancestors. But, he also had no way of directly refusing Zhou Nan’s punishment.

After all, everyone knew of his and Xiao Yuanmu’s relationship. Moreover, he had previously declared that Xiao Yuanmu was his in front of everyone. It would be weird no matter how you looked at it if he were to refuse now.

Therefore, Song Xuanhe put all of his hopes onto Xiao Yuanmu.

He could not refuse, but Xiao Yuanmu could, ah. He remembered that the book said that Xiao Yuanmu didn’t like others getting too intimate with him. He would very likely find it absolutely unbearable to kiss.

Song Xuanhe didn’t speak. He only smiled at Xiao Yuanmu as if asking for his opinion.

The spectators all exchanged silent gazes. They all believed in the rumour that Song Xuanhe was truly smitten even more. They had never seen Song Er treat anyone else like this before.

Xiao Yuanmu’s eyes were cold. He met with Song Xuanhe’s eyes silently. His expression did not change. But, what no one knew was that the fingers hanging at his side had curled up slightly.

Seeing Xiao Yuanmu neither move nor refuse, Song Xuanhe hesitated for a long time, unable to read any emotions from within those cool eyes. Then, it dawned on him. Xiao Yuanmu had not been reborn yet. Even if he really didn’t want to, Xiao Yuanmu would not embarrass Song Xuanhe in front of so many people so straightforwardly. Great plans could be ruined by moments of impatience. Right now, Xiao Yuanmu must have already found quite a bit of data on the Song Family. If Xiao Yuanmu were to offend Song Xuanhe now, it would only waste all the work he’d done up until now.

When he thought of this, Song Xuanhe knew that he could not escape this situation. He could only stand up. He was planning on taking a page out of Xue Mian’s book. He’d just touch lips with the other for a bit.

However, just as he stood up, Zhou Nan, who was already getting impatient, shoved him with a click of his tongue. He teased, “If you’re gonna kiss, then kiss. If you’re gonna play the game, play it. Don’t exchange lovey-dovey glances at each other and force us to eat all this dog food, OK?”

Song Xuanhe had been caught off guard and ended up being pushed into Xiao Yuanmu’s lap. Their lips touched. The soft, warm lips came with a faint smell of peppermint. It was the smell of the toothpaste Xiao Yuanmu used. Song Xuanhe used one that was blueberry-flavoured.

Xiao Yuanmu calmly examined the face that was extremely close to his own. His lips were pressed together. Because his nose was high, they didn’t bump noses. From his point of view, he could only see Song Xuanhe’s surprised eyes.

Song Xuanhe’s eyes were not particularly large, but they were very bright and clear. His eyelashes were long and thick. The corners of his eyes drooped down slightly. However, they were not seductive, come-hither eyes. Rather, they were very cheerful and bright. He always wore a smile. When he flashed others an innocent expression, he looked very convincing. People readily developed a good impression of him.

However, although there was always a bit of a smile within those pure, limpid eyes, Song Xuanhe never seriously put anyone into his heart. Mixed within his naivety and purity was the indifferent and careless cruelty of someone who lived life as if he was merely playing a game.

Suddenly, the image of Song Jiani draped over Song Xuanhe’s body that afternoon burst into Xiao Yuanmu’s mind. The kiss mark on Song Xuanhe’s face and the red stain on his clothes had been extremely grating, but Xiao Yuanmu hadn’t been able to do anything about them. His own pride and Song Xuanhe’s baffling, sudden estrangement had frozen him in place, rendering him incapable of doing anything except hide away the unfamiliar emotion and hand the other a napkin to wipe away the stain.

Song Xuanhe counted the seconds. He had planned on keeping their lips together for several seconds and just hoodwinking it through. But when he had counted to ten, the corners of his eyes began to feel a little itchy, and he couldn’t help but blink.

His eyelashes were like a fan of feathers, gently brushing against Xiao Yuanmu’s nose. Xiao Yuanmu’s curled-up fingers began to shake. The next second, Xiao Yuanmu tilted his head slightly, covered the back of Song Xuanhe’s head with his palm, and pressed his tongue out. His tongue pushed into Song Xuanhe’s mouth, hooking the other’s still one.

Before shutting his eyes, Xiao Yuanmu had caught sight of Song Xuanhe’s slightly widened eyes. After closing his eyes, Xiao Yuanmu used his hand to press the other closer to himself. His kiss was sloppy and unskilled as he simply followed his instincts to push his tongue even deeper into the other’s mouth. He alternated between exploring the cavity with that lithe, strong muscle of his and sucking the other’s lips. It was only a short moment before he got the hang of things. The inevitable wet noises that were produced from the entwinement of lips as they exchanged saliva made Song Xuanhe make a sound akin to a whimper as he sucked in a breath.

Xiao Yuanmu’s eyelashes fluttered. He placed his other hand on the nape of Song Xuanhe’s neck. At the same time, he backed away slightly before tilting his head once more so that he could plunder the other’s mouth from a different angle. Their tongues danced together in an even more skillful and intense fashion. It was like Xiao Yuanmu wanted to swallow the person in his arms into his own being.

Song Xuanhe had been caught off guard when Xiao Yuanmu had cupped the back of his head and pried open his teeth. Just as he was about to struggle free, he heard cheering from the sidelines. It was then that he remembered what kind of situation they were currently in. Although he was angry and wanted to grit his teeth, he couldn’t clench his jaw shut at this time. He could only try to avoid the other’s tongue. However, Xiao Yuanmu’s offense was fierce. He didn’t give Song Xuanhe any opportunity to evade. All Song Xuanhe could do was accept the other’s invasion.

He could only stifle his fury for now and vent it later. However, as they kissed, Song Xuanhe suddenly felt that making out with Xiao Yuanmu wasn’t all that bad. He’d had boyfriends and girlfriends in his original world, but he had never felt anything much from doing these sorts of things with them to the point where he didn’t even care to find partners to deal with his sexual urges. Later on, his studio became more and more famous, so he became even less inclined to waste time on such things. He had put all his energy into his work.

He hadn’t expected that this would feel different.

Song Xuanhe had always been the type to enjoy himself. Since it felt quite good, he wouldn’t deprive himself of the pleasure. He switched out of his passivity just now and responded, inexperienced but enthusiastic. A few seconds later, he got used to it, pinched Xiao Yuanmu’s chin, and took over the lead.

The spectators watched with keen interest as the two of them made out as if no one else was around. When Xiao Yuanmu had hooked his arm around Song Xuanhe, some of them couldn’t help but make an odd sound. They had almost blurted out, “Oh yeah.”

From the onlookers’ perspectives, although Song Xuanhe was sitting on Xiao Yuanmu’s lap, with Song Xuanhe’s head tilted downwards and Xiao Yuanmu’s tilted upwards, it looked like it had been Song Xuanhe who had initiated the kiss. Song Xuanhe’s action of pinching Xiao Yuanmu’s chin had only served to solidify that thought. Some people secretly thought, “Song Er is indeed worthy of being an old hand on the playing field.” He could easily arouse others.

Having counted the seconds, Song Xuanhe pushed Xiao Yuanmu away when time was up, suppressing the bewilderment in his heart. He turned to flash Zhou Nan a smile and said, “Three minutes. It shouldn’t have been less, ba.”

Zhou Nan looked at his phone’s timer and gave him a thumbs up, “Accepted!”

The others also came over to take a look and saw that it was exactly three minutes. A peal of laughter rippled through the room.

On the way back home, Song Xuanhe divided his attention. While driving, he spoke to the System.

【There’s something off about Xiao Yuanmu. According to his character settings, even if he bore with it and didn’t shake me off and leave, he shouldn’t have pulled me into a kiss. And, it was so passionate too….】

【He hasn’t been reborn yet.】The System first denied Song Xuanhe’s conjecture. It then said:【There’s nothing off about him. Relax. After all, you saved his life a while ago. Xiao Yuanmu grew up at the orphanage. Except for the old director, no one has ever treated him so kindly. Right now, for him to see you as someone special is very normal.】

The System’s rough voice that carried a thick northeastern accent had a unique cheerfulness to it:【Big bro, just relax.】

【So, you’re saying he hasn’t gone out of character?】Song Xuanhe glanced at Xiao Yuanmu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, taking in the other’s pensive expression. His gaze then flitted down to the other’s red lips before averting away:【If he wasn’t acting out of character, how could he have kissed me?】

【Brother.】Er Gou sighed and spoke earnestly:【Although you know that this is a story, you should also know that this is an actual, real world. Xiao Yuanmu is a living, breathing person. Humans change. What he’s thinking, I don’t know. But, it’s not odd whatever he does. After all, you humans have always been easy to change, haven’t you?】

【Moreover, even if he really does like you a bit now, when you gift him to someone else later, he’ll still act the way he’s supposed to. Don’t worry.】

When he heard the System talk like this, Song Xuanhe really did relax. In any case, the ending would not change. No matter how the process deviated, it wouldn’t matter.

Halfway through the drive home, a flash of lightning streaked through the sky. Thunder suddenly roared. A moment later, heavy rain followed the wind. Everything was a blur through the car’s windshield.

Song Xuanhe turned on the wipers. He gazed at the traffic through the torrent of rain. His slightly smiling lips pursed slightly.

A small passage appeared in his mind: :【Looking at Xiao Yuanmu’s indifferent expression, Song Xuanhe narrowed his eyes and looked out at the torrential rainstorm outside. He suddenly quirked his lips into a smile and said, “Suddenly, I want to eat Jinji’s congee. Seafood congee. Go buy it.”

When he saw the unmasked malice in Song Xuanhe’s eyes, Xiao Yuanmu’s expression didn’t change, but his eyes became colder. He didn’t say anything though and directly walked into the downpour.】

This was the next scene. After this, Xiao Yuanmu, who had braved the rain to head towards Jinji would then be hit by a car. This is how he would encounter the only pursuer he would meet before his rebirth: Wei Chen.


The author has something to say:

To date, three of the pursuers of the book have already appeared. Two of them are obvious. One of the big shots can be guessed. If you guess it right, I’ll give you a red pocket!
