It was as if they had already fused into one. There was no concept of time at all. The entire courtyard was so quiet that it was a little scary.
"Caw caw…"
Suddenly, a frog hopped out of the grass on its four legs and cried out at an untimely time, breaking the rare silence.
His voice was like thunder.
Dongfang Bai suddenly woke up from his daze. He felt the body temperature and masculine scent on his red lips, and he felt an inexplicable dryness all over his body. It started to heat up and she struggled.
Feeling the struggle of the beautiful woman in his arms, Zhu Moxie regained his senses. His heartbeat and breathing gradually returned to normal.
A refreshing feeling that he had never felt before rushed to his head. Dongfang Bai's slightly angry and confused expression entered his eyes, making his heart soften.
Zhu Moxie naturally knew that a forced melon would not be sweet.
However, Dongfang Bai's reaction seemed to be the same as his. It seemed that this girl had feelings for him too.
It was just that she was still young and was still a little ignorant about relationships. She did not understand what this sudden feeling of loss meant.
As long as he planned it slowly and step by step, it would not be long before she would be willing to wear the phoenix robe and wedding dress!
At this moment, Zhu Moxie did not force himself on her, but gently tapped her tender lips that were as thin as cicada wings, and then left.
The sensation on his lips suddenly disappeared. Dongfang Bai did not struggle anymore. He quietly stared at Zhu Moxie's face. He looked confused and at a loss. He moved his lips, wanting to say something, but stopped.
Her heart was in a mess. It was sweet, bitter, and resistant.
Suddenly, two warm hands held her red and hot face and gently rubbed it. As he wiped, he used his fingers to wipe away the tears on her face.
"Do you really hate marrying me that much?”
A gentle voice entered Dongfang Bai's ears, causing her to be slightly stunned and lost in thought.
It was as if something in her heart had been touched.
That's right, did she really hate him?
That was impossible. She was extremely grateful to this little man who protected her at all costs. How could she hate him?
It seemed that her attitude towards him had changed because she had seen her father's true colors and was a little angry.
Her personality was stronger than a man's, and she was unwilling to be manipulated. That was why she resisted Zhu Moxie.
At the end of the day, he was the one who had gone into a dead end.
After sorting out his thoughts, Dongfang Bai came back to his senses. He raised his beautiful eyebrows slightly and asked,""Hmph, even if I don't hate you, you don't have to force a kiss on me, right?”
"As expected of someone from the royal family.”
Dongfang Bai stared at Zhu Moxie with a layer of sweat on his palms as he nervously waited for his reply.
It was a matter of a girl's reputation. Even a girl like her who did not care about trifles could not let it go.
Hearing this, Zhu Moxie finally revealed a smile. That somewhat unruly and cute Dongfang Bai had finally returned to normal.
He looked straight into her watery eyes and said seriously," I can tell you seriously that this is my first kiss too…"
At the end of his sentence, he could no longer maintain his solemn expression, and his old face turned red.
As the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty, he was already in his teens, but he still kept his first kiss. It was quite embarrassing.
When Dongfang Bai saw this awkward look, he naturally knew that he was telling the truth. He could not help but be overjoyed, but the next second, she suppressed it and waited for him to continue with a dark face.
Seeing the change in Dongfang Bai's expression, Zhu Moxie couldn't help but feel a headache. This girl's personality was really stubborn. Must she only be satisfied after he explained everything clearly?
After adjusting his mood, he took a deep breath. A hint of gentleness flashed across his eyes as he said softly,"From the first time I saw you, the string in my heart that had been silent for many years was fiercely plucked. In the short time I spent with you, it made me feel that the sky was so blue and the air was so fresh for the first time. Just now, when I saw you cry, my heart inexplicably ached.”
After he finished speaking, Zhu Moxie's expression changed, and his tone became sharp. He said in high spirits,""As for kissing you, I just want to tell you that you're the woman I like. No one can make you cry! This kiss represents my mark. From now on, you belong to me! Whoever dares to have improper thoughts about you, I'll cut off their entire family!”
The gentle and overbearing words made Dongfang Bai's eyes fill with vigor. The seed that had been planted in his heart had finally sprouted.
His originally stern face could no longer be faked, and his tears turned into a smile.
That smile was devastatingly beautiful!
Her beautiful smile was imprinted in Zhu Moxie's eyes. She was so beautiful that even his composure could not help but be slightly absent-minded. In the next second, he also smiled at her knowingly and pulled her into his arms.
"Now, you can rest assured, right?”
Dongfang Bai's pretty face turned slightly hot when he heard the playful words, but it was much better than when they had just met. She raised her hand and patted his chest. She said softly,""Bah, who's worried about anything? Don't think too highly of yourself.”
Although he said that, he was relieved in his heart.
She was really worried that Zhu Moxie would use his status as a member of the royal family to bully her and play with her feelings.
Now it seemed that Zhu Moxie's feelings for her should not be fake.
Dongfang Bai, who still had a vague understanding of relationships, only felt sweetness in his heart, but he was still a little worried. He said uncertainly,""Don't you despise my humble background? Don't you mind that I'm older than you…"
After asking a few questions, Zhu Moxie stuck out his finger and covered her chattering red lips.""There is no distinction between high and low. I don't care about your age. As the saying goes, a woman should carry a gold brick in her arms. If I carry this gold brick home, I might even be able to turn the tide and become the emperor.”
Naturally, he knew what Dongfang Bai was worried about. In this day and age, the mindset of superiority and inferiority was still deeply rooted. This was still fine. After all, as long as Zhu Moxie said the word, even a beggar could become a high official. It was not a problem at all.
What she was most afraid of was that she was three years older than Zhu Moxie.
In Da Ming, brother-sister relationships were still not welcomed and were under pressure from fishing vessels.
Everyone's mouth is like gold, and people's gossip is terrible.
There were too many rumors, and sometimes it would make people collapse. She was very worried about whether Zhu Moxie would be able to withstand it in the future.
However, what would Dongfang Bai think if he knew that the person Zhu Moxie's cheapskate father, Zhu Jianshen, loved the most was an auntie who was twenty years older than him?
Zhu Moxie narrowed his eyes when he saw the worry hidden in Dongfang Bai's face. He laughed evilly and said,""If anyone dares to gossip, I'll kill their entire family!”
Phew, I'm really tired of writing. The love line with Miss Dongfang has already reached a small circle. It's over for the time being. The next chapter will enter the main plot.
