If You Could Hear My Heart-Chapter 696 - : Willingly Initiating a Kiss with Him
Chapter 696: Chapter 696: Willingly Initiating a Kiss with Him
If it weren’t for the fact that his fever left him weak all over, he really would have loved to teach her a lesson.
Xu Chaomu wrapped her arms around his neck and nuzzled him, then kissed him on the ear, “Of course it’s you.”
“Hmm.” Shen Chi curled the corners of his lips, clearly satisfied on the inside, but his face showed dissatisfaction.

Was this even something that needed thinking about?
When Xu Chaomu was nuzzling against him, she felt his scorching body temperature, and she kissed his ear again—this was the first time she was willingly initiating a kiss with him.
There was a faint scent of green tea in his hair as she hugged his neck, clinging to his scent and refusing to let go.
“Xu Chaomu, Little Fairy, you still torment me like this when I’m sick.”
Shen Chi helplessly curled his lips, didn’t she know how much torture this was for a man?
However, this torture was a sweet burden indeed.
“Who’s the one who climbs into my bed every night and tortures me?” Xu Chaomu complained with dissatisfaction.
“Were you tormented?” Shen Chi retorted.
“Err…” Xu Chaomu was at a loss for words, how could she say such a thing.
Every time, she had to admit that Shen Chi was very skilled, and often she had to endure it, getting stirred up by him until she was beside herself.
Like when he was kissing her, she would always feel an electric shock, tingling and numbing.
Just like the adult novels wrote: “The mouth won’t admit, but the body is very honest.”
Um… no, why was she thinking of these indecent things?
“I’ll go change the cloth for you.”
After saying that, Xu Chaomu climbed off him and dipped the warm cloth in water, then applied it to his forehead again.
He definitely won’t have anything happen to him, they definitely would wait for people from the foot of the mountain to come rescue them…
“Shen Chi, you have to hold on,” Xu Chaomu said, embracing him with moist eyes.
“Hmm.”
Shen Chi’s eyelids were heavy, and he closed his eyes, no longer talking to Xu Chaomu, instead falling deeply asleep.
He was asleep, but Xu Chaomu couldn’t feel any trace of sleepiness, she was worried about him.
She kept moistening the cloth, continuously wiping his body to cool him down.
In this moment, she felt a deep sense of despair and helplessness, hoping for the sun to rise early the next morning so that his fever would break.
For many years, she had never seen Shen Chi’s face as pale as this.
She held onto him and kept holding him, not willing to let go.
In the night, Shen Chi woke up thirsty.
Xu Chaomu was drowsily lying on top of him, fast asleep—she must be exhausted. Shen Chi had the heart to gently put her down to go find water.
But, the moment he slightly moved, Xu Chaomu woke up.
He used to tease her that once she fell asleep she was like a little pig, but now, she was a light sleeper.
“Are you awake? Do you still feel hot?” Xu Chaomu asked anxiously as she touched his forehead.
However, it was still the same, his fever wasn’t subsiding.
She was a bit sad and also a bit desperate.
“Why is it still so hot, sit up, do you want water?” Xu Chaomu said, panicked.
“Hmm.” Shen Chi felt miserable all over.
“I’ll help you.”
Xu Chaomu scooped up some clear water and went over to him, helping him drink.
On touch, indeed, his entire body was burning up, thankfully, there was no sign of infection at the wound for the moment.
She was terrified, a fear she had never felt before, because she had never seen Shen Chi like this.
She knew he was just a normal person too.
“You have to be alright, hold on.” Xu Chaomu held him with tears forming in her eyes, her heart aching as though needles were pricking it.
“Fool.” He stroked her head and his lips curled into a slight smile.
“I’m not stupid,” Xu Chaomu protested.
She got closer to him, hugging him, and quietly stared into his eyes.
His dark pupils reflected her, and they were so close, his eyes filled with her. His angular and tough face looked weary from the fever yet still unbelievably handsome and charming.
His breathing was a bit rapid, this little demon.
Just a few centimeters between them, she turned her head, and her cold lips pressed against his.
His lips were very hot, scorching, and she awkwardly kissed him, not allowing him to refuse.
However, after kissing for a while, she felt awkward, scratched her head, and let go of him.
Shen Chi’s face darkened for a moment, and there was a hint of a smirk on the edge of his lips.
“What are you laughing at?” Xu Chaomu felt embarrassed, it was rare for her to take the initiative.
“In the future, leave this kind of thing to me,” Shen Chi said dominantly.
“Oh,” Xu Chaomu replied nonchalantly and then snapped back to reality, “No, wait, why should you? What gives you the right?
“Get off,” Shen Chi said with a stern face, “unless you want me to die that quickly.”
Xu Chaomu glanced at his face—oops, inadvertently, she had been sitting on his legs.
She turned over and hurriedly got off but asked him, “Are you still uncomfortable?”
“What do you think?”
“I didn’t mean it, I just wanted… just wanted to kiss you,” Xu Chaomu said feeling wronged.
“Save it, wait until I’m feeling better.”
“Oh,” Xu Chaomu obediently responded.
Sure enough, after a little coaxing, this man’s lips revealed an upturned arc, he really did like it when Xu Chaomu was obedient.
After talking for a little while, Shen Chi closed his eyes again and settled quietly.
The rain outside had already stopped, and Xu Chaomu was waiting eagerly for the sun to come out early so the people outside could come and rescue them faster.
Shen Chi closed his eyes, and she didn’t know whether he was asleep or not, but she quietly stayed by his side.
Only she knew how much she loved him.
The fire flickered in the cave, the outside world was pitch-dark, she snuggled against him. If he wasn’t feverish, such days would have been very comforting…
She felt uneasy all night, as if there was a little drum beating “dong dong dong” in her heart.
She was looking forward to the arrival of daylight—Shen Chi would surely be alright.
…
At dawn the next day, finally, Xu Chaomu saw a strand of morning light.
Beams of light pierced through the clouds and struck the ground, layer upon layer, like broken gold, making the puddles on the ground twinkle with glinting lights.
The sun had risen, bringing a thriving vitality everywhere, and she heard the joyful chirping of birds.
Her heart also leaped with joy, and she quickly ran to the mouth of the cave.
Indeed, the sky was very blue, the clouds as thin as silk. She looked up at the sky, loving this azure, clear sky.
The sun was at its easternmost point, slowly rising, the Earth rapidly warming. The morning air was fresh, but the nearby ruins constantly reminded her of the explosion that had occurred here.
She ran out of the cave and looked into the distance, where mountains rose and fell, and the trees were lush.
With the weather so good today, people from below the mountain would surely think of a way to rescue them.
After standing outside the cave for a while, she ran back into the cave.
There was no food left at all, Shen Chi hadn’t had a drop to drink; she knew he was thinking of her, and to keep her alive, he would certainly sacrifice everything he could, including his life.
