Chapter 523: She Would Know How He Felt about Her
Tan Mo suddenly stopped crying after that.
The only tears that were left were those that still hung on her eyelashes.
It was as if they were morning dew about to drip off the leaves.
Of course, her face was still wet from all the crying.
Her reddened eyes were focused on the man in front of her, looking at him dumbfoundedly.
Those eyes were as clear as crystal that had just been polished.
When Wei Zhiqian slightly turned his head, his breath brushed past her nose.
Without any warning, his soft and warm lips landed on her forehead.
The lips then moved to her eyes, touching the tears that were still hanging on the lashes.
Wei Zhiqian gently moved his lips, and the tears dripped from her lashes to his lips and into his mouth.
Even though the liquid had a hint of saltiness to it, he could also taste the natural aroma that Tan Mo always carried around with her.
Wei Zhiqian had to admit that it was pretty addictive.
At first, he was only brus.h.i.+ng his lips carefully against her eyes.
However, when he noticed that Tan Mo was completely stunned by his action, it gave him the courage to kiss her eye as if he wanted to suck all the tears away.
Seconds later, he moved to the other eye.
Tan Mo’s body was completely frozen throughout all of it. She let Wei Zhiqian do what he wanted.
All she felt was the hot sensation coming from her eyes.
Wei Zhiqian moved his lips away from her eyes.
When he did that, she could feel his warm breath hitting her eyes.
The man did not stop there. Tan Mo could feel his breath moving down. His lips touched her cheek.
As he continued to move down, he would try to dry the tears away from her face.
Tan Mo slowly closed her eyes while her eyelashes were trembling visibly.
The man continued all the way down the path where the tears dripped.
Without realizing it, his lips had arrived next to hers.
Wei Zhiqian paused and slowly opened his eyes to look at the corner of her pink and soft lips.
He then raised his head to look at Tan Mo’s eyes.
He realized that her eyes were closed as if she was completely relaxed. Her lashes were completely calm as well, unlike before.
He couldn’t help but wonder if she had already accepted him.
His breathing became warmer and messy as his lips stopped in front of the lady’s rose-pink lips
His warm breath had wet the lips that he was looking at.
Just as he was about to kiss her, he felt soft and rhythmic breathing on his nose. He could even smell the sweetness and sourness from the breath.
The pace of the breathing was peaceful.
Wei Zhiqian immediately was speechless. It was only then he found out that it wasn’t that the lady had accepted his advance. She had already fallen asleep.
The man let out a sigh as he could not continue what he wanted to do.
No matter how much he liked Tan Mo, there was no way he could kiss her when she was unconscious.
That would be indecent of him.
He looked at her and gently scratched the tip of her nose, unable to believe that she would leave him hanging at the most important part.
He intended to test and see how she would react to his advancement.
If he had really kissed her, no matter how clumsy she was at such matters, she would still know how he felt about her.
When he first kissed her eyes, the lady was nervous and was shaking, but she did not push him away either.
Perhaps it was because she was too surprised by his action and could not react to it. In the midst of her shock, the man went even further.
The reason he went that far was that he was still uncertain of her feelings.
What he did not expect was for Tan Mo to fall asleep at the most important part.
Wei Zhiqian let out another deeper sigh and lifted the lady off the couch to take her back into her bedroom.
After gently laying her down on her bed, he turned and was about to leave when he stopped moving.
A few seconds later, he turned around and looked at Tan Mo for another few seconds with hesitation.
He suddenly closed the door and moved over to the other side of the bed to lie down on it.
At first, they were separated by about the width of a fist.
A minute had pa.s.sed since then, and Wei Zhiqian noticed that Tan Mo was still fast asleep.
He took a deep breath and moved his body closer to her. They were now only separated by the size of half a fist.
Another minute later, their arms were touching.
He could feel the lady’s soft arm through his tough and muscular arm.
It had only made his heart race even faster.
At that time, the man was still lying with his back on the bed.
After a moment of thinking, he turned sideways to face Tan Mo.
Perhaps because she was drunk, her breathing wasn’t as rhythmic as it always was.
Her mouth was slightly open, and he could see part of her teeth. She was breathing through both her mouth and nose.
Yet, even then, Wei Zhiqian still found her cute.
Since he wasn’t sleepy yet, he raised his head and rest it on his palm while he watched her sleep.
He looked at her for so long that his arm was starting to feel numb from supporting his head.
Just as he was about to put his head down back to the pillow, Tan Mo suddenly turned around and rest one of her arms over his other arm.
The man froze as his heart began to race again.
Tan Mo was basically cuddling up in his arms now.
Her face was resting on his chest, and she would rub on it from time to time.
Wei Zhiqian was afraid to make any big movements. He gently and slowly moved his arm away and rested his head down on the pillow.
Tan Mo slept soundly through that and did not even react to it.
The man let out a sigh of relief until he noticed that her arm was still resting on him.
After thinking for a while, he gently moved his arm out so that her arm was now resting on his waist.
He then pulled her closer as if he wanted to glue her to himself.
Perhaps because Tan Mo felt like she was hugging a pillow, her arms tightened around his waist.
A few seconds later, she even rested one of her legs on his.
Wei Zhiqian was already completely fl.u.s.tered by then.
He had never expected that he would have to suffer like that controlling his desire.
Yet, Tan Mo was hugging him so tightly that he couldn’t even move.
Of course, there was no way that he would want to do that either.
All he could do was endure through the sweet yet torturing night.
*
As the sun rose the next day, Tan Mo slowly opened her eyes as she woke up.
The first thing that came to her still sleepy mind was that she had a great sleep.
She still didn’t realize where she was sleeping and thought she was hugging a plus-sized pillow.
It was so comfortable that it boosted her sleep quality.
Before she fully opened her eyes, she even rubbed her body against what she thought was a pillow.
She felt that the aroma from the pillow was familiar and had given her a sense of security.
That was why she sniffed it before opening her eyes.
As soon as Tan Mo’s eyes were fully open, the first thing she saw was a pale yet muscular chest.
The black b.u.t.ton-down s.h.i.+rt was unb.u.t.toned down halfway and messy.
The skin became even fairer when compared to the black s.h.i.+rt.
Even though the skin was pale, it was also masculine. It was well-defined to the point where any woman would find it s.e.xy.
Tan Mo’s eyes immediately shot wide open.
