Wu Qingkong looked at Qian Renxue's gesture, puzzled for a moment.
She leaned forward slightly and brought her head closer.
"What is it? If there's something you need, wait until we've finished eating—"
Before he could finish, Qian Renxue leaned forward too.
Her lips pressed against his in an instant.
Her lips had been cool, but suddenly they sent a wave of warmth into his mouth.
The plain congee flowed straight back into Wu Qingkong's mouth.
Wu Qingkong froze, making a muffled sound.
He looked at Qian Renxue and was about to speak, but she raised a slender finger and placed it against his lips.
"Swallow it!"
Wu Qingkong swallowed.
The warm congee carried a trace of delicate sweetness.
His face reddened.
"Was it good?!"
Qian Renxue asked with a playful smile.
It was the sweetest congee he had ever tasted. Wu Qingkong nodded. "It was."
"Then feed me the same way."
Wu Qingkong immediately picked up the bowl of congee, took a small sip, and held it in his mouth.
Qian Renxue closed her beautiful eyes and waited for Wu Qingkong to feed her mouth-to-mouth.
As Wu Qingkong drew closer, his warm breath brushed her face.
Their lips were about to meet.
A knock sounded at the door.
"Xue'er, Qingkong, are you awake? There's something important happening today."
No sooner had the voice faded than the door was pushed open.
Guang Ling had just stepped into the room when he saw the two of them about to kiss.
He quickly covered his face with a hand. "Sorry! Carry on. I didn't see a thing."
At his words, Qian Renxue's eyes flew open and turned toward the door.
"Fifth Grandpa, why did you come in right now?"
Guang Ling covered his eyes with both hands. "I didn't see a thing.
