Chapter 1603 — The Young Lady's Thoughts: But the Moment Gao Xiaofu Took a Look, His Eyes Rolled Back and He Nearly Passed Out
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
As for Feng Xiaoxiao, Gu Mengyao didn't dwell on it — she simply took it as a dying person's wish, an exceptional case with no basis for comparison.
The more she thought, the more hesitant Gu Mengyao became. Just as it was about to be her and Wei Zhao's turn, she found herself, almost as if driven by some unseen force, turning to Xiaoshu: "Xiaoshu, I'm designating you to play the game with Wei Zhao! Since the boys can designate, so can the girls!"
No one objected to Gu Mengyao's suggestion — after all, it had nothing to do with anyone else, so long as the parties involved agreed.
"Oh, sure!" Shen Yushu happened not to have had quite enough fun, and Gu Mengyao's words made her overjoyed. "Arrow-Brother, let's play again — this time no cheating! You have to kiss for longer! That last one was over in a flash; Xiaoshu didn't feel a thing!"
Wei Zhao had expected the young lady's reaction. The young lady was, at her core, quite coy and reserved — designating Xiaoshu for this round spared everyone the awkwardness. Wei Zhao was fairly certain of Xiaoshu's feelings toward him, so however he teased her, it wouldn't cause her any misunderstanding.
But Gu Mengyao — Wei Zhao truly couldn't read her. Apart from the time of her war with Tang Zhi, when the young lady had shown some iron resolve, at every other moment Wei Zhao could see nothing beyond friendship in the young lady's eyes, nothing hinting at anything deeper!
As for her war with Tang Zhi, Wei Zhao could only chalk it up to the young lady having been blinded by anger at the time, her tongue running away with her. That was in fact the case — she and Tang Zhi had both spouted things that were utterly baseless.
Wei Zhao and Shen Yushu raised the plastic wrap again, and this time Shen Yushu had learned her lesson — instead of waiting stupidly for Wei Zhao to kiss her, she struck first, pressing her lips to Wei Zhao's through the wrap!
Wei Zhao was momentarily taken aback. He could have dodged, but didn't — partly because he feared hurting Shen Yushu's feelings, and partly because, through a layer of plastic wrap, it shouldn't really count as an actual kiss, right?
As for kissing, Shen Yushu was really a novice — someone who knew what it looked like but not what it meant. She had only ever seen men and women kiss on TV, mouth to mouth, but she knew nothing about tongue kissing or French kissing. So the two of them foolishly pressed their lips together for a moment and then parted.
Wei Zhao, though equally inexperienced in such matters, understood a bit more than Shen Yushu. But he had no intention of taking advantage of her, so he simply followed her lead — a mouth-to-mouth touch, and the "safe kiss" was done.
Though Shen Yushu had achieved her goal, she was somewhat puzzled: this kissing business wasn't as wonderful as she'd imagined! It was a bit nerve-racking and exciting, sure — but didn't those people on TV stay lip-locked like that for ages? Weren't they exhausted?
Full of questions, Shen Yushu decided that when she got home, she would go online and look up exactly what kissing was — to see if she had missed something...
