From a distance, no more than a few centimetres away from her face, the man's enlarged face had frowned. With an unsatisfied mien on his face, Su Jin slightly tilted her head back and dragged her stool a little further away. She then stood.

With the seat before him vacant, Lu Xi's long eyebrows were slightly cached as he straightened up and held his hand out towards Su Jin.

"Huh?" Tilting her head to a side, Su Jin was somewhat confused.

"Let's go." Lu Xi's thin lips curled up a little as he expressed clear and bright laughter in the depths of his eyes, "if we are here like this any longer, then I really would not be able to resist."

Resist what?

Su Jin was startled but this query of hers, she paused before asking it.

What would he not be able to resist?

In the guest seats at the banquet of the graduation evening party, the girl had been engrossed with this phrase and flung her anger away to ask in curiosity.

Hearing this, the man chuckled lowly.

"I would not be able to resist and try to--" With a slight change of his facial expression, his voice turned low, deep and elegant.

"--kiss you."

Those alluring peach blossom eyes met with her phoenix eyes with deep laughter in them.

As her thoughts churned in her mind, Su Jin's face pinked; did she still need to ask what he could not resist doing?

"Pervert." Raising her eyes, she glared at him as she spun around in full intent to leave the room.

Pervert?

The girl's cheek had reddened a little and when those innately curled phoenix eyes glared at him, they showed a gleaming reflection from within. As if it were a refreshing puddle of clear water, her eyes were filled with light that was similar to limpid ripples in a green lake.

With a raise of his eyebrows, Lu Xi's hand that had stilled in thin air held onto the girl's arm. With a light use of strength, the girl had then been spun and fallen into his embrace.

Unexpectedly caught off guard by a sneak attack from him, in a valiant effort to maintain her balance, Su Jin's arms had wrapped around the man's neck. When she recovered her senses once more, there was already a pair of arms curled around her slender waist.

"Hey!" She reproved lowly while struggling a little; yet, she was hugged even tighter and she had decidedly given up in trying to free herself. Raising her eyes to look at the man before her, she blinked those phoenix eyes, "the party is about to begin, we should go down."

"Pervert?" Lu Xi did not pay heed to her urging and merely raised an eyebrow at her as he bent his body over a little.

Su Jin's height was not really low either and today, as she was wearing a pair of high heels on her feet. With her being intimately taken into Lu Xi's arms and embrace, as he leaned his body forward that slightest bit, the tip of their noses were practically in close and intimate contact.

Somewhat sluggishly blinking her eyes, Su Jin saw those familiar peach blossom eyes abruptly looming before her; those eyelashes of his were long and thick and in the depths of those eyes, a dense fog of laughter had little by little shone through.

"A harassment would be something a pervert does." His sharp, straight nose softly rub against hers as he curled his lips, "as for me, this is called--"
