Chapter 305 - 244: Accelerated Progress

Chapter 305: Chapter 244: Accelerated Progress

In the back seat, the multi-colored ambient lighting seemed to breathe, constantly shifting through a dazzling array of colors, making the already intimate atmosphere even thicker.

Lin Qingge gazed at Gu Heng, who was just inches away. The car’s ventilation system constantly refreshed the cabin air, and the AC kept a steady temperature, but she felt her whole body growing hotter and hotter.

"You..."

"How do you plan on getting even?"

Lin Qingge’s voice was barely a whisper, her eyes growing even more moist.

"As if you don’t know~"

Gu Heng’s gaze fell on Lin Qingge’s cherry-red lips, a hint of amusement in his voice.

Hearing Gu Heng’s words, Lin Qingge slowly closed her eyes. She then tilted her delicate chin up slightly, looking as if she were presenting herself to be taken.

"Open your eyes~"

Gu Heng said softly again.

At his words, Lin Qingge opened her eyes again, a hint of confusion in their beautiful depths.

However, in the very instant she opened her eyes.

Gu Heng’s slightly cool, thin lips pressed against hers, and a moist warmth enveloped them.

At the same time, their gazes were locked.

Kissing with your eyes open and kissing with them closed are two completely different experiences.

With eyes open, lips and gazes intertwine.

The lips grow wetter, while the gaze becomes more intense and charged.

Lin Qingge could clearly see a hint of aggression gradually appearing in Gu Heng’s eyes.

After being stunned for a few seconds, she belatedly came to her senses and snapped her eyes shut.

But the instant she closed her eyes, Gu Heng stopped kissing her.

"Open them~"

Gu Heng’s thin lips brushed tantalizingly against her red ones, his gentle voice carrying a hint of command.

Lin Qingge fought back her shyness and slowly opened her eyes again.

Only when Gu Heng saw Lin Qingge open her eyes again did he resume the kiss.

He went from gentle to passionate, while Lin Qingge went from shy and clumsy to gradually learning how to respond, and finally, to meeting his passion completely.

Perhaps it was because they were kissing across the seats, an uncomfortable position.

Gu Heng reached out, lifted Lin Qingge directly onto his own zero-gravity seat, wrapped his left arm tightly around her slender waist, and gently cradled the back of her head with his right hand.

As the deep kiss grew more intense, Gu Heng’s arms tightened around her.

Because Lin Qingge had trained in dance for years, her slender waist was surprisingly supple.

Hmm?

How did Gu Heng know, you ask?

Faced with Gu Heng’s deep kisses and masterful technique, every time Lin Qingge got so shy she couldn’t help but close her eyes, Gu Heng would stop and softly remind her to open them. As a result, she kept her eyes open from beginning to end.

After what felt like an eternity, their lips slowly parted.

Lin Qingge’s lively, beautiful eyes were so moist they looked as if they might overflow, and her small, cherry-red mouth had been kissed by Gu Heng until it was slightly pale.

"Chairman Gu, are you always like this when you take a girl home?"

Lin Qingge’s arms were wrapped around Gu Heng’s neck. She rested her head lightly against his chest and asked him softly.

"I only take girls I’m interested in home."

Gu Heng didn’t answer the question directly.

"So, does that mean you’re interested in me, Chairman Gu?"

Lin Qingge lifted her head to look at Gu Heng again.

"Of course."

"Why?"

"Because you’re beautiful."

Hearing Gu Heng’s reply, Lin Qingge looked slightly taken aback.

"What?"

"You think my reason is too direct?"

"Or do you think I’m too shallow?"

Looking at Lin Qingge’s expression, Gu Heng knew exactly what she was thinking.

"Do you know why there’s a saying that beautiful women have always been cursed with tragic fates?"

Gu Heng’s right hand gently caressed Lin Qingge’s slim waist as he suddenly posed the question.

"Why?"

Lin Qingge shook her head.

"Because from ancient times to the present, the scholars and poets never cared how long the ugly ones lived."

Gu Heng replied softly.

"Ah, well..."

A faint smile appeared on Lin Qingge’s face. But as she thought about it, she realized there was actually some truth to Gu Heng’s words.

"This is a superficial era, one that judges by appearances."

Gu Heng shrugged. "Unless your lives already intersect somehow, if you don’t have a pretty face, who has the time to get to know your personality and values?"

"Then..."

"When did you become interested in me?"

Lin Qingge blinked and asked Gu Heng another question.

"We’ve only met twice in total. When do you think I started?"

Once again, Gu Heng didn’t give Lin Qingge a direct answer.

In Lin Qingge’s understanding, Gu Heng’s reply meant that he had been interested in her from the very first time he saw her.

In reality, Gu Heng had become interested in Lin Qingge long before that, when he saw a group photo of the four of them from her dorm room on Liu Nanyi’s Moments.

"Are you interested in Yiyi, then?"

Lin Qingge bit her lip, testing the waters cautiously.

Gu Heng looked directly into Lin Qingge’s eyes and nodded lightly.

Lin Qingge bit her lip a little harder. "What about Tangtang?"

Gu Heng nodded again.

"And Yaoyao?"

Lin Qingge already knew the answer, but she couldn’t help but hold out a sliver of hope.

As expected, Gu Heng nodded once more.

"You..."

"You actually want to have our entire dorm room!"

Lin Qingge’s cheeks puffed out. "And Yaoyao has a boyfriend!"

"The capable should do more."

"Supporting women is so expensive."

Gu Heng raised an eyebrow and said with a grin, "Young men these days generally don’t have money. After graduation, they have to face the pressure of buying a house and a car. I think they have it too hard, so I’m proactively helping them share the burden."
