Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts-Chapter 605 - 424. I almost let Xiao Xiao down_2
Xu Qingfan whispered in her ear.
"Hmm~"
Warm breath brushed past her ear, and Xiao Ruawen finally came back to her senses, realizing how intimate their position was at the moment.
She was hiding in a recess that resembled a stapler, and Xu Qingfan, to avoid being seen by people downstairs, squeezed his entire body in from the outside.
Additionally, with the weather being hot in early October, both of them were only wearing thin summer school uniforms. In such a special environment, every touch of skin felt like it was magnified by ten thousand times.
"The footsteps have stopped; they must have gone."
"They probably can’t find this place."
Xu Qingfan was paying attention to every little sound in the surroundings, yet he hadn’t noticed Ruawen’s unusual state at that moment. freeweɓnovel.cøm
"The footsteps are getting fainter, let’s hide a little longer before going back."
"Ruan Wen?"
Noticing that Xiao Ruawen had been silent for a while, Xu Qingfan finally turned his attention to her condition.
"Hmm... okay." Xiao Ruawen finally responded upon hearing her name.
As their eyes met, in an instant, Xu Qingfan also realized how provocative their posture was.
The soft padding against his chest, the breath on his neck—every part was stimulating his nerves.
Ruan Wen averted her gaze, feeling guilty, and the atmosphere suddenly became awkward.
Just as Xu Qingfan was about to speak to ease the awkwardness, a beam of light from a flashlight suddenly shone at his feet.
Their pupils dilated as the light beam grew brighter.
Tap, tap, tap—the sound of leather shoes tapping on the floor reached their ears.
Ruan Wen looked towards the corner in horror, while Xu Qingfan held his breath in nervousness.
Both of them slowed their breathing, listening as the footsteps drew closer.
The light turned into a circle, and the scattering particles of light made both their faces ghostly pale.
As the footsteps ceased, they both knew that the dorm supervisor was now standing at the corner; just two steps forward and a ninety-degree turn would reveal them hiding in the crevice.
Fortunately, perhaps due to the dorm supervisor’s unfamiliarity with the layout of the building, after not finding anyone at the corner, he did not continue to check further.
The light flickered, and the night took back its place from the day once again.
"Tap, tap, tap."
Listening to the footsteps fading away, both he and Xiao Ruawen exhaled deeply.
"Phew~ That scared me to death." Xiao Ruawen patted her forehead, catching her breath.
"It’s good he didn’t come in to check." Xu Qingfan was equally relieved.
"Good, good, that was too thrilling," Xiao Ruawen said, flustered again when their eyes unintentionally met.
"Yeah, let’s go back after school," Xu Qingfan suggested.
Noticing the change in her expression, tender feelings started to rise within him.
Put plainly, it was like having the urge to use the restroom.
"Hmm..."
Ruan Wen avoided his gaze, unconsciously leaning back, but the wall was behind her, leaving no escape.
Inhaling her pleasant body fragrance, the QQ bounce of the soft fluffy rabbit against his breathing and the breath on his neck, Xu Qingfan began to feel a bit out of control.
As the one beside him, Xiao Ruawen was the first to notice the change in him, and it felt as uncomfortable as being held at gunpoint.
Xiao Ruawen started to panic; she still remembered what Xiaoxiao said last time about Xu Qingfan "forcing" her to do naughty things by grabbing her hand.
Men lose their reason when they are aroused.
[Brother Fan wouldn’t want me to do that, would he?]
[That can’t happen!]
Xiao Ruawen was truly alarmed.
All she had originally wanted was to go to Love Avenue with Brother Fan—for the good of everyone getting along harmoniously, of course!
If Brother Fan’s first time was given to her, ptooey ptooey ptooey, I mean the first time going to Love Avenue, then Xiaoxiao, Wanning, Yiyi, and Yu wouldn’t need to argue over it anymore.
For the sake of family harmony, she, Xiao Ruawen, had given far, far too much for this family!
But the current problem was: [How on earth did Brother Fan and I end up hiding here all of a sudden?]
"Brother Fan... It seems like they have gone."
Xiao Ruawen felt uncomfortable all over and hoped Xu Qingfan would move away from her soon.
"They might still be downstairs; let’s wait till the school bell rings." Xu Qingfan replied.
Yet, whether he truly couldn’t understand or was feigning ignorance, he stubbornly remained sprawled over her and didn’t move.
"Mm~okay... okay then." Her chest was being pressed down by Xu Qingfan, and she found it difficult to breathe and speak.
But such gasps of breath, to the man-dog’s ears, sounded like the bugle calling for an advance.
Time, place, atmosphere all matched; how poor was his self-control, did he not know?
Xu Qingfan wasn’t aware that Xiao Ruawen had already formed an alliance with Xia Xiaoxiao, so he thought that it was time to pluck this immature fruit.
"Ruan Wen." He made eye contact with Xiao Ruawen again.
"Wh... what?" Xiao Ruawen’s eyes were filled with vigilance and panic.
"How long until school’s out?"
"I... I don’t know."
"Are you going to eat a late night snack later?"
"Eat... let’s not."
He engaged in idle chat bit by bit, gradually, slowly disarming Xiao Ruawen’s caution.
"You’re perfect the way you are now, you don’t need to lose weight." Xu Qingfan still remembered what she had said not long ago.
"Hmm..." Xiao Ruawen didn’t dare to mention someone peeking anymore, "So Brother Fan, do you think my figure is better, or is Xiao Xiao’s?"
[Ahhh~ I’m going crazy!]
Xiao Ruawen regretted it as soon as she asked. Why on earth did she ask such a question impulsively?
Xu Qingfan clearly paused, but with such an easy question, how could it stump the man-dog: "Xiao Xiao has a good figure, but I like Ruan Wen’s style."
Xiao Ruawen wasn’t happy about the first half of the sentence, but upon hearing the last half, her eyes instantly brightened.
But she quickly felt she shouldn’t be happy.
"What do I care about who you like!" Xiao Ruawen said without much conviction.
Xu Qingfan just smiled and thought: [Why has Ruan Wen also learned Xiao Xiao’s tsundere ways?]
Seeing Xiao Ruawen’s evasive gaze, he knew it was about time to reel in.
"Ruan Wen." Xu Qingfan breathed into her ear.
"Wh... what?" Xiao Ruawen was instantly startled.
"Mm." Xu Qingfan looked into her eyes, his lips slowly moving closer.
Xiao Ruawen instantly clenched her fists, first closing her eyes, then slightly opening a crack to see that Brother Fan’s lips were getting closer and closer, then she resignedly closed her eyes again.
[It’s over, it’s over, it’s over...]
Ding ding ding—
At the last critical moment, the school bell rang.
"Slap!"
Xiao Ruawen’s brain, which had disconnected, seemed to reconnect as she slapped Xu Qingfan away and, gasping for air, ran off without looking back.
It took a moment for Xu Qingfan to process as he touched the cheek that had been struck, somewhat amused and bemused.
Perhaps due to various simple mistakes made by the four girls, Xu Qingfan had an unfounded confidence that Xiao Ruawen wouldn’t reject him either, which led to the current blunder.
Xu Qingfan patted his head and muttered, "You can’t get too carried away."
Normally, a romantic relationship starts with holding hands to establish a connection.
But since Xu Qingfan and the five girls were too familiar, holding hands was casual, and hugging waists was a normal behavior, so first base was where they started.
But that didn’t mean he could kiss Xiao Ruawen on the lips before they had established a romantic relationship!
Realizing this, Xu Qingfan only blamed his own recklessness, not at all resentful that Xiao Ruawen had just hit him.
After all, a man-dog who plays the field, deserves getting whacked!
"I should apologize to Ruan Wen sometime..."
Xu Qingfan shook his head, dusted off his clothes and left the lab building.
Elsewhere.
Having run all the way, Xiao Ruawen had reached the school gates.
"That was close, so close, I almost let Xiao Xiao down!" She kept patting her chest, "Tonight was just an accident, just an accident, can’t let Xiao Xiao find out."
"I might have hit Brother Fan a bit too hard just now, he won’t be mad, right..."
[But how can Brother Fan be so shameless, knowing he’s been with Xiao Xiao like that, how can he still kiss me!]
[Maybe... it’s because my charm is too great?]
[Hmph~ It’s not all Brother Fan’s fault!]
Xiao Ruawen looked down, unable to see the ground.
...
