Taking the Initiative to Approach, Then Saying Pause

Lin Yu: “Huh???”

And that was where she stopped.

Chi Qingchi suddenly fell silent, leaving the rest unsaid.

This drove Lin Yu crazy with impatience.

Why stop here of all places?

“What happened in the manga?”

“You really know how to leave someone hanging!”

Even if Chi Qingchi genuinely wanted to stop there, Lin Yu absolutely wasn’t going to let her.

If there was something he needed to ask, he had to get to the bottom of it.

He had to find out what was going on!

Unexpectedly—

Before he could react, Little Chi suddenly leaned forward and lightly pecked him on the cheek…

Lin Yu: “!!!”

Chi Qingchi: “……”

The sudden move left Lin Yu’s brain completely unable to process what had happened.

To be fair, by the time other girls’ intimacy levels reached this point, they had already made much bolder moves than this.

But Little Chi had always been the hardest one to win over.

Lin Yu had thought this day would come very slowly.

He had even prepared himself for a long, uphill battle.

And yet—

In such an ordinary moment, the scene he had imagined actually happened?

It seemed that Little Chi had truly let go of all her reservations!

In an atmosphere like this, Lin Yu had still intended to carefully cultivate their relationship, one step at a time.

But Little Chi had gone and pressed the fast-forward button on their relationship.

Who could resist someone charging forward with such thrilling enthusiasm?

Lin Yu turned sideways and firmly held Little Chi by the shoulders.

He wasn’t some idiot who would only let the girl take the initiative.

When the moment called for it, he could be crazier than anyone.

However—

Things seemed to be more complicated than he had imagined.

“No, no, no. Let’s stop here for now!”

Chi Qingchi deftly slipped her little hands free and braced them against Lin Yu’s chest.

Lin Yu was stunned again. “???”

What did she mean, stop here?

Wasn’t she the one who had suddenly kissed him?

What the heck?

You kiss someone, then just decide it’s over because you say so?

Where was the justice? Where was the law?

Lin Yu withdrew his hands and spread them helplessly.

He asked, speechless, “I wasn’t the one who made the first move. Why does it feel like I’m the one committing a crime?”

“Weren’t you the one who ambushed me just now?”

“Or did I imagine the whole thing?”

Chi Qingchi’s face flushed red.

The bold courage she had shown moments ago was nowhere to be seen.

Instead, she held both hands against her burning cheeks and said, “I just couldn’t help myself for a moment…”

“Isn’t this the part in the manga where you’re supposed to give someone a quick kiss and then stop?”

Lin Yu: “……”

Damn those romance mangas!

They really did nothing but lead people astray!

So that was what “stop after making your point” meant to her.

In real life, things didn’t work that way.

Once passion and impulse took over, who would have the time to worry about all that?

There was nothing Lin Yu could do.

Who had told him to be such a gentleman?

When a girl had clearly said that she wasn’t ready, he couldn’t rush headlong into the next step.

Little Chi wasn’t Elder Chi.

The emotional foundation between the two of them wasn’t firm enough yet.

He couldn’t force the relationship forward one step after another. He had to carefully maintain it with every move.

Anything done on impulse might not end well.

“I’m telling you, you should read fewer mangas!”

“What kind of things are they teaching you, anyway?”

“You’re lucky you ran into me. I was able to keep myself under control.”

“Otherwise, after that little move just now, you’d already have been pinned down!”

Lin Yu wasn’t exaggerating or trying to scare her. He was giving Little Chi a sincere warning.

At the very least, she couldn’t treat him like a fool and keep dangling him like that next time!

“Oh, got it…”

Listening to Lin Yu, Chi Qingchi obediently nodded along.

Lin Yu’s words had sounded fierce and serious enough.

But in the end—

He had still respected what she truly felt.

That made Chi Qingchi’s heart feel warm.
