Chapter 64: Lemonade

Huo Junze could not fathom how the young girl before him could so boldly speak of molesting him.

He could even see anticipation in those eyes.

Wait.

What is her hand doing?

He grabbed the mischievous hand that was attempting to touch his abdominal muscles.

The person with ulterior motives was caught, yet there was not a hint of fear on her face.

"Can't I touch?"

Ruan Mian felt a bit disappointed; they had already kissed, so why wouldn't he let her have a touch?

Before the apocalypse, her understanding of eight-pack abs came entirely from the "male bodhisattvas" on a certain short-video app.

After the apocalypse, with stomachs going unfilled day by day, those with a bit of meat became skeletons, and those without meat turned into piles of ash.

Where else could one see any muscular men!

It was only here.

Sob, the only one with eight-pack abs, and she was about to succeed, only for this to happen.

"What? You kissed me just for my abs?"

There's a chance!

Ruan Mian's eyes brightened.

Her fingertips tapped his chest, the force light and soft, causing a ticklish sensation.

She bit her red lips, which he had kissed, her eyes alluring like silk.

"Who kissed you? It was clearly you who kissed me, alright..."

This kitten-like energy made Huo Junze's heart feel itchy.

Thinking this, he took the opportunity to lift her hand and pressed a kiss to her fingertips.

"Yes, it was I who kissed you."

He pressed his forehead against hers.

Every wisp of breath turned into silk threads, wanting to wrap tightly around her.

"Mianmian is even better to kiss than I imagined."

Ruan Mian was left blushing and red-faced by his sudden ambiguous words.

She dared not look into his eyes.

He gave her hand a squeeze, neither too light nor too heavy, "So soft."

Boom—Ruan Mian pressed her lips tight.

Shyness made her almost subconsciously want to retreat.

What is wrong with this person!?

Wasn't it agreed that she was supposed to be the one doing the seducing?

It's a total reversal of the natural order!

It is simply a reversal of the natural order!

Wait!

Ruan Mian finally realized something was wrong.

Her curled eyelashes blinked and blinked, like a butterfly in flight.

Her amber pupils reflected him.

The surrounding temperature was climbing.

"Huo Junze, you..."

Her mind was racing, thinking of the scenes she had seen in old television dramas where favored concubines bewitched their monarchs, wondering what she should do.

After thinking for a long time, she could only grab a corner of his hem, her fingers twisting and twisting.

With a bit of trepidation, she spoke again.

"Do you also, perhaps, like me just a little bit~"

After gathering the courage to ask this, she lowered her eyelashes again, not daring to look.

The next second, her chin was gently lifted once more.

He forcefully intruded into her field of vision.

"Why are you playing the deserter? Weren't you very bold when you kissed me just now? Hmm?"

He did not wait for her answer.

A moist heat was pressed against the corner of her lips.

"I thought I had been obvious enough."

"What?"

Sighing, Huo Junze felt a bit helpless, yet his eyes were filled with doting affection.

"As for you, I do indeed like you."

He couldn't explain why, but as he learned about her bit by bit, the scales in his heart had already tipped toward her side.

At first, he only felt that someone who possessed such precious plants must be held onto.

He just didn't expect that such a tiny girl would have such immense energy.

Every single thing he did with her was full of surprises.

The life he had lived for so many years before was so dull it could be called uneventful, incomparable to these days spent knowing her.

Every day since meeting her has been full of surprises and joy.

Falling for such a charming girl is the most normal thing in the world, isn't it!

"What a coincidence!"

Ruan Mian pounced on him, her arms hanging tightly around his neck, bold and uninhibited.

Being loved so recklessly.

"I like you too!"

At this moment, the very air turned into a sweet flavor.

Ruan Mian thought, the honey peaches must be ripe, sweet enough to make one feel a little intoxicated.

Huo Junze's gaze also changed at this moment.

Deep, scorching, and unmasked.

"Then, kiss me again."

A fair, tender palm blocked the space between the two, obstructing his poised attack.

If one doesn't make demands at a time like this, when would one make them?

"Can I touch those abs?"

The person whose lips were blocked only revealed half of his face, which only served to make those dark eyes even more unfathomable.

The vortex of the storm contained within was almost about to suck her entire being in.

The next second, her hand was pulled and pressed against a patch of scorching heat.

The uneven muscles, she could feel the temperature rising, and his shallow breathing also became rapid.

The texture, not bad at all~

"Now, can I kiss you?"

Without a word, he pulled down the hand blocking the middle, lowered his head, and found her lips, unable to stop.

That hand that still wanted to cause trouble was pressed against his waist, helplessly clinging to this big tree...

Ruan Mian nestled in someone's embrace, calming the palpitations in her heart.

A breeze brushed past, blowing in a faint fruity fragrance, the swaying branches and leaves listening to the lovers' whispers.

A string of dark red cherries like jewels turned at his fingertips; the fruit, already beautiful to the point of being unreal, was set off even more wonderfully by his well-proportioned fingers.

She suddenly remembered her original plan.

"President Huo, I have a business deal I'd like to discuss with you, are you interested?"

Huo Junze raised an eyebrow as he looked at the person in his arms; she was smiling like a flower, a cunning light flickering in her eyes, faintly hiding a playful desire for mischief, even the strand of hair sticking up on the top of her head looked jaunty.

The hand around her waist lifted to knead the soft flesh at the back of her neck, his brows and eyes lowered, and then he let out a low laugh.

"Boss Ruan, please go ahead."

Ruan Mian truly sat up a bit straighter, cleared her throat, and pointed in the direction of the big tree overhead.

"Regarding the business of these fruits, I wonder if President Huo is interested?"

Huo Junze was somewhat surprised.

But after a fleeting moment, he felt a sense of understanding.

"How does Mianmian plan to do this business? Do you want to do it casually? Or make a big deal out of it?"

As soon as business was mentioned, Ruan Mian got energized.

She got up from him, reached out to him, and pulled him up from the ground as well.

"Let's pick some fruit first, I'll make you something delicious, President Huo, please do me the honor~"

The two shuttled between the fruit trees, holding quite a bit of fruit in their hands, and walked to the small wooden cabin with smiles.

She cut the Lemon into thin slices, added syrup, pounded the Lemon slices, scooped in a spoonful of ice cubes, and finally added water.

After sealing it, she shook it until well-mixed.

A simple yet extraordinary Lemonade was finished.

Ruan Mian pushed it in front of him, very expectant of his reaction.

"President Huo, want to have a taste?"

She hadn't forgotten the way Huo Junze's features had contorted from the sourness of the Lemon just a moment ago.

It amused her to no end.

She had seen another side of Huo Junze, even more vivid and cute.

"Is it delicious like this?"

That yellow Lemon looked good, and smelled faint, carrying a bitter woody fragrance, but this taste really made it impossible for him to offer any compliments.

Now he was extremely suspicious of this water made with Lemon...
