“Okay, okay, I was joking. Actually, it was very good,” Chen Jing laughed, pushing away his approaching face, feeling both sweet and troubled inside.
Chu Zheng was overjoyed, hugging his little treasure tightly, deeply inhaling her fragrance, his eyes bright like stars: “Does senior thinking it’s good mean that senior kind of likes me?”
When did thinking someone’s kissing technique was good become a confession of liking? Chen Jing’s mind was filled with question marks, but seeing him so happy, she didn’t want to discourage him and reluctantly nodded.
Chu Zheng held his breath, barely containing his excitement, guiding her: “Since senior thinks I’m good and kind of likes me, would you be my girlfriend?”
Chen Jing’s expression was calm, staring at him assessingly.
Chu Zheng’s Adam’s apple bobbed, nervous sweat breaking out.
Chen Jing saw his face turning pale and finally burst out laughing, kissing him: “Okay.”
In that instant, fireworks blazed across the sky. Chu Zheng was stunned, then suddenly broke into a smile, more radiant than ever.
A faint blush appeared on Chu Zheng’s face as he buried it in her fragrant neck, feeling shy.
So this is how it feels when the goddess you’ve secretly loved for so long suddenly agrees to date.
Happily, his eyes grew warm, emotions swelling in his chest, unable to hold back tears.
Yes, tears of happiness.

While Chu Zheng was crying happily, over at Xu Jing’s side, only sadness remained.
Xu Jing looked at Chen Jing through teary eyes, knowing the situation was final but still holding a tiny hope, asking, “Tang-jie, can I not go?”
“No,” Chen Jing looked at her gently but without mercy, “Be good, Xiao Jing. I’ll fly over to see you every year, I promise.”
Compared to friendship and life, Chen Jing really didn’t want to make her choose, but what could she do? It was her own fault for being foolish in her youth, actually liking a pervert like Chu Zheng.
“Going abroad means seeing each other only once a year, but staying would mean seeing each other every day, I…” Xu Jing couldn’t accept it and broke down crying.
Chen Jing stood up and hugged her, gently patting her back, saying with complex emotions, “Xiao Jing, one day you’ll realize that in this world, no one can’t live without someone else.”
“No…” Xu Jing choked, shaking her head, “I don’t want to realize that. I just can’t leave you, I need you by my side.” She looked up, crying and pleading, “Tang-jie, will you come with me? We’ll study abroad together, eat, drink, and play together. I’ll help you find the most handsome foreign guys, drink the strongest alcohol, play the most fun games, okay? Okay?”
Chen Jing sighed softly, saying nothing more, just stroking her hair gently, “I hope you live well.”
“Without you, I can’t possibly live well!” Xu Jing sobbed, angry and helpless, “Tang-jie, wait and see. One day, I’ll dismember that bastard Chu Zheng and make him suffer a thousand, ten thousand times more than I do today!”
“Good…”
Xu Jing ultimately left.
Xu Jing’s parents were suddenly arrested for serious bribery and intentional murder. Most of the family’s assets were frozen, and their house was forcibly seized and auctioned.
Consequently, Xu Jing was forced to flee abroad.
Xu Jing’s company was already deeply in debt, merely hanging on. With her parents in prison, Xu Jing would face massive debt if she didn’t leave.
Leaving was Xu Jing’s own choice.
Although Chen Jing seemed indifferent, she was troubled by Xu Jing’s impending departure.
Even in her youth, she understood that a girl like Xu Jing, who had a difficult childhood and lost her brother to an accident, felt resentment from her parents.
When parents asked about tuition fees, their attitude felt like charity. At home, they constantly berated her, making her feel unsafe and undermining her self-esteem.
A kind classmate helped her grow up, and she became increasingly dependent on this person, wanting to monopolize the friendship and not wanting anyone else to interfere. Unfortunately, she was killed by a perverted male protagonist out of jealousy.
Chen Jing couldn’t change Xu Jing’s fate, so she could only send her away to avoid this inexplicable death.
She’ll appease the perverted male protagonist she created in her book, even if she has to do it on her knees.
When Xu Jing left, she didn’t cry. With reddened eyes, she gave Chen Jing a fierce hug: “Tang Jia, wait for me.”
“She paused, then suddenly turned ferocious, biting her neck and gritting her teeth: ‘Don’t you dare forget me! If I find out you haven’t – you’ll face my revenge!’
Chen Jing winced in pain, ‘Hiss,’ and furrowed her brow slightly but didn’t push her away, instead nodding solemnly: ‘I definitely won’t forget you.’
Xu Jing, satisfied with the answer, hummed, then ran away.
She was afraid she couldn’t hold back her tears.
There are some people in this world whom you once thought would never be separated, no matter what happens. But reality is cruel. When it’s time to part, no matter how painful, how unwilling, you still have to separate.
Xu Jing boarded the plane, crying uncontrollably for hours despite the strange looks from others, until she cried herself to sleep, occasionally letting out a sob.
The gentleman sitting next to her watched her cry for as long as she did. When she finally fell asleep, her head tilting awkwardly, he sighed and gently rested her head on his shoulder, a look of tender compassion in his eyes.
After sending Xu Jing away, besides feeling heartache for the bite mark on her neck and shedding surface tears, Chu Zheng was secretly cursing that Xu Jing would die in a plane crash. He was clearly overjoyed.
He no longer tried to hide it. Since Chen Jing agreed to date him, Chu Zheng stopped maintaining his pure, innocent persona.”
He would look at her with green-eyed desire, pouncing like a wolf to exchange a passionate, lingering kiss, intoxicated to the point of ecstasy.
Chen Jing didn’t quite understand his obsession but did not stop him and was enjoying herself.
If she were a demon, he would be willing to sacrifice himself; if she were Buddha, he would be willing to save all beings for her; if she were an abyss, he would be willing to sink into it, accompanying her for eternity.
“Senior… Jia Jia…”
The atmosphere was just right today, and their hearts were burning hot as they kissed their way to the bed, with clothes almost completely removed.
Chu Zheng was breathing heavily, repeatedly calling her name in her ear.
“My Jia Jia…”
Chen Jing occasionally responded, gently kissing him. She sat on top of him, taking the dominant position, her fingertips lightly unbuttoning his shirt.
Chu Zheng was like a tamed wolf dog, looking at her with soft and gentle eyes, his face full of happiness.
At this moment, the demon deep in his heart was equally docile, lying peacefully and calmly, allowing her to touch him at will.
Chen Jing took off his shirt, leaned down to kiss his shoulder, tilted her head to look at him, and smiled mischievously: “How about it, are you brave enough?
Chu Zheng reached out to embrace her back, pressing her down forcefully, raised his head to kiss her, his voice intoxicated: “As long as it’s you, I dare to do anything.”
As long as it’s you.
My darling Jia Jia…
Chen Jing’s smile deepened, her fingers sliding into his hair, giving him a lingering, passionate kiss.
If asked who the most lovable couple in the world is, Chen Jing thought, besides Chu Zheng, she couldn’t think of anyone else.
Chu Zheng was breathing heavily, his forehead and nose covered in dense sweat.
Chen Jing mischievously reached down.
Chu Zheng inhaled sharply, looking like a cooked duck, struggling weakly.
“Senior,” he called anxiously.
