The Ice King's Little Trouble Maker-Chapter 592 - 556: Kiss Again?

Actually, regarding the matter of sending Qiao Lech home every day, Lin Huai Shu is not thinking the same as Chen Hui.

He simply feels that home must be more comfortable than living at school.

And Qiao Lech has never expressed any objections to this.

So he insists on sending Qiao Lech home.

After all... having dated for two months, meeting very frequently, and with progress still stuck at the stage of holding hands or an occasional hug, Mr. Lin cannot fathom the depth that Chen Hui perceives.

It’s another day, and Lin Huai Shu goes to pick up Qiao Lech at noon.

She has no classes in the afternoon.

Lin Huai Shu picks up Qiao Lech at noon, first going for lunch, then takes her to his company.

Originally, he wanted to take her out for fun.

But suddenly the company called with something urgent, and he had to go back to deal with it.

So he brought her back with him.

It just so happens that Qiao Lech also has homework to do.

Lin Huai Shu goes to a meeting, and she sits on the sofa in his office doing her homework.

This meeting of Lin Huai Shu’s lasts a long time, over an hour and he still hasn’t come back.

Qiao Lech, halfway through her homework, feels a bit of backache from sitting, so she stands up to move around.

Standing in front of the sofa, she looks around.

Lin Huai Shu’s office is very modern, with an air of grandeur mixed with a bit of flamboyance.

The entire eastern wall is lined with books. Domestic and foreign classics, all kinds related to economics, and various comics...

On the western wall shelves, more than half are filled with figurines, the upper half of the other side with a collection of banknotes and coins, and a sword lies across the middle cabinet, with stacks of xuan paper and brushes below.

Qiao Lech looks at his desk again.

Computer, documents, and neatly arranged figurines....

Qiao Lech suddenly realizes that she might not know him very well.

She doesn’t know what he likes.

As she thinks this, the door behind her suddenly opens.

Qiao Lech turns around.

Lin Huai Shu comes in holding a coffee, smiling: "Why are you standing?"

Qiao Lech glances at him, clearly sensing the lingering aggression about him. Although smiling, his dominant aura is obvious: "Just looking around."

Lin Huai Shu approaches, handing her the coffee: "Have a taste."

"You made this?" Qiao Lech looks at the latte art on top.

"Yes." Lin Huai Shu’s affirmation carries a hint of seeking praise.

Qiao Lech smiles, takes a sip: "Mm, it’s very good."

Lin Huai Shu smiles, then takes Qiao Lech’s hand, leading her to the desk: "What were you looking at just now?"

"Your figurines," Qiao Lech replies.

"I like collecting these," Lin Huai Shu casually picks one up, "These are all gifts from partners."

Qiao Lech nods, takes another sip of her coffee, and asks: "Are you done with work?"

"Yes," Lin Huai Shu replies, "Were you tired of waiting?"

"No." Qiao Lech holds her cup, looks up at him: "Did you just get angry?"

Lin Huai Shu freezes, looking into her eyes.

Qiao Lech gazes back at him.

Lin Huai Shu opens his mouth, nervously touches his face, wondering if he didn’t hide his emotions well: "Did I... scare you?"

Qiao Lech shakes her head: "If you have work, just go ahead, don’t mind me, I still have a lot of homework, need to write for a while."

"No worries. I just finished scolding them." Lin Huai Shu says, clicking his tongue, "Small matters, yet they’d cause a fuss. Scolding makes them behave."

Qiao Lech chuckles.

Seeing her laugh, Lin Huai Shu smiles along: "What are you laughing at?"

"Just feels like you’re a bit different from usual." Qiao Lech lowers her gaze.

"I wouldn’t treat you that way," Lin Huai Shu immediately says.

"Really? Even if I caused a problem, you wouldn’t?" Qiao Lech asks.

Lin Huai Shu laughs: "No worries, Nuwa’s children are naturally good at fixing the sky, I’m quite adept."

Qiao Lech laughs again.

"If you don’t like it, I’ll be more measured with them in the future." Lin Huai Shu says, "Once I start getting angry, it’s indeed hard to control. I’ll try not to in the future."

"I don’t dislike it." Qiao Lech lowers her gaze, her voice softens, "I quite like it."

"Hm? What?" Lin Huai Shu raises an eyebrow, asks again.

Qiao Lech shakes her head: "Nothing."

Lin Huai Shu glances at Qiao Lech’s flushed eartips, after a few seconds, he lightly hooks her chin with his finger.

Qiao Lech instinctively looks up at him. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

They’ve never been this close before.

Qiao Lech is a bit surprised.

But she didn’t expect more surprising things to follow.

As she looks up, Lin Huai Shu suddenly leans down and gives her a soft kiss on the lips.

Qiao Lech’s eyes widen suddenly.

Her heart skips a beat, and then she freezes.

Lin Huai Shu’s move is gentle, pulling back right after the touch.

He watches Qiao Lech’s shocked expression, raises his hand to touch her face, asking: "Are you okay?"

Qiao Lech’s eyelashes flutter once.

But her eyes still innocently gaze at him.

Lin Huai Shu feels his palms moisten with sweat.

Watching her smile, hearing her speak, he suddenly couldn’t help himself.

But now he’s more worried about her reaction.

Afraid she might resist.

Afraid she might be scared.

Afraid of creating a psychological burden for her.

Suddenly he regrets, thinking it should have been slower, or discussed it gradually.

"Lechu, I’m sor..."

He doesn’t finish his words as Qiao Lech suddenly says: "No, it’s okay."

As she speaks, her eyelashes flutter repeatedly.

Lin Huai Shu watches her response.

Qiao Lech lowers her gaze to avoid his eyes: "I, I’m fine."

"Really?" Seeing her only shy and no other reaction, Lin Huai Shu teases.

"Mm." Qiao Lech responds a bit stiffly.

"Then can I kiss again?" Lin Huai Shu pushes his luck.

Qiao Lech’s ears suddenly redden more, she lowers her gaze silently.

Originally wanting to lower her head, but with Lin Huai Shu’s hand on her face, she can’t lower it.

Seeing she’s almost hiding away, Lin Huai Shu stops teasing her.

Not daring to tease much more either.

A little probing is enough, gradually from now on.

Anyway, he’s managed these two months this way too.

Today, he’s already very happy.

He lowers his hand, ruffles her hair: "Just kidding."

"You can," Qiao Lech says.

As Lin Huai Shu finishes speaking, Qiao Lech utters those words. Though her voice is small, Lin Huai Shu feels it resonates in his eardrums.

His smile around his eyes freezes.

Qiao Lech repeats: "You can."

Lin Huai Shu freezes, a bit slow on the uptake. He feels his coordination between body parts is malfunctioning.

He wants to raise his hand, but his arm defies the brain’s command, remaining still.

Seeing him not moving, Qiao Lech slowly looks up at him.

When she looks up, she notices Lin Huai Shu’s eyes gradually reddening at the corners.

She’s never seen this side of Lin Huai Shu, struggling to interpret his emotions.

Finding him in this state very appealing, yet he’s clearly moved.

But it’s a silent excitement, that reddens his eyes.

He’s somewhat dazed.

Seeing him like this, Qiao Lech pauses for two seconds, grips his suit, and on tiptoe, kisses his lips...
