Chapter 250: This Isn’t Crossing the Line, Right? (Extra Update) (Please Vote for Me)
Bam!
A crisp sound echoed through the air.
The foreheads of two people collided with a satisfying thud.
.
“Ah!”
Lin Tian instinctively cried out.
When he opened his eyes again,
He was face-to-face with a young woman’s visage, just inches away from his own.
Gan Yan Yu still had her eyes closed, as if the collision didn’t disturb her slumber at all.
“She’s really out cold.”
Lin Tian sighed, but his gaze couldn’t tear itself away from her face.
Tokyo’s bumpy taxi ride.
Outside the window, icy winds were howling,
But inside, warmth enveloped them.
Lin Tian even felt a bit overheated.
He tried to snap himself awake.
Nope, if he kept staring like this, trouble would surely follow!
He lowered his head.
But when he did—
In his vision,
A white shirt, disheveled and with only two buttons undone, revealed—
A deep, stark cleavage hidden in soft, creamy skin.
It seemed like a hidden treasure.
Was it just his imagination,
Or had the scent intensified?
Maybe because of the shirt being unbuttoned, or perhaps it was just Gan Yan Yu’s natural aroma—
No, no, stop right there!
Lin Tian felt his bl**d rush.
He hastily raised his head, forcing himself to look back at the girl’s small, innocent face.
Yet that didn’t help either;
Xiao Gan was really sleeping like a log.
Even with all that commotion, she hadn’t stirred an inch.
That delicate, almost sculptural face remained serene, peaceful even.
Her usually lively or cool demeanor softened, revealing a tranquil beauty so captivating it left him spellbound.
—She wouldn’t notice if he kissed her right?
This bold thought zipped through his mind in an instant.
As he looked at those rosy, plump lips,
To put it simply:
Only a saint could resist kissing her.
Lin Tian was no saint; he was about to give in too.
He stared intently at Gan Yan Yu.
His moral compass battled with his carnal desires.
If he actually did it, things might not be the same again.
Although he often teased her with some wild stuff,
Deep down, he treasured the purity in her.
Like facing a pure lotus, untouched by filth,
Your heart swells with admiration, unwilling to mar its beauty.
And Gan Yan Yu, as fresh as a blossoming flower, had managed to subdue Lin Tian’s lust.
But what if—
The taxi kept moving,
Time seemed to drag on.
The vehicle steadied its course in the back seat,
Lin Tian stayed transfixed on Gan Yan Yu.
Even without doing anything, just staring would suffice.
—Lin Tian waited for his chance.
For another sudden brake by the driver.
Lin Tian understood.
If he didn’t initiate anything,
The guilt trip could be avoided!
The initial bang was an accident.
He’d adjust his expression this time,
Just in case—
He might accidentally bump into another sensitive spot.
You know, like in those clichéd dramas where they end up kissing by mistake.
What are the chances of that happening in real life, huh?
Lin Tian looked at Gan Yan Yu,
Mentally chanting “Tom Cat, Tom Cat” to avoid thoughts.
Yet he secretly hoped for—
That precise moment,
Adjusting a little…
Then—
Suddenly!
At a traffic light, the driver hit the brakes hard.
The vehicle jolted, sending Lin Tian forward by inertia.
Here it comes!
Absolutely—
Lin Tian shut his eyes tight.
But—
While dozing, Gan Yan Yu shifted, lifting her head from Lin Tian’s shoulder onto the cushion.
Lin Tian missed—
And dived face-first into—
Another soft spot, completely enveloping his face.
So squishy, like a bun.
The smell that hit his nose—
Definitely confirmed it.
Body odor.
.
?
When Lin Tian forced his eyes open, he saw nothing but whiteness.
He quickly sat up,
Taking deep breaths,
Realizing his blunder.
“Oh, no!”
He forced himself calm,
Good thing, Gan Yan Yu only unbuttoned two buttons.
Overall, the contact was limited to Gan Yan Yu’s collarbone.
The lower, softer parts were shielded by the shirt.
But even so, quite risky.
Lin Tian turned to check her reaction,
Gan Yan Yu looked at him.
“What?”
Lin Tian was taken aback.
“W-Why the serious face?”
Gan Yan Yu asked, clutching her hands, looking guilty like a child caught in mischief.
“Inverted Direction!”
“Wait,” Lin Tian realized, asking,
“When did you wake up?”
“Just now. I opened my eyes and saw you rubbing your head,”
Gan Yan Yu said softly, “Did I cause much trouble after getting drunk? I can’t remember clearly…”
“Not really,” Lin Tian replied.
Relief washed over him.
He hadn’t realized,
Her earlier gaze scared him. If he couldn’t explain it as mere happenstance, things could have gone south.
If Gan Yan Yu found out he was thinking such naughty thoughts,
She might be upset, or worse, God knows.
“Did the drink wear off?” Lin Tian changed the subject.
He noticed she spoke more clearly, less slur.
“Not fully yet. But after a sleep, I feel better,”
Gan Yan Yu supported her forehead.
She paused to say,
“My head and collarbone feel a bit sore, though.”
“Good,”
Lin Tian responded.
Of course,
She wasn’t fully drunk initially, just a small sip.
Come quick, go quick.
Lin Tian already felt half-sober after the performance.
Remembering Xiao Gan’s antics while drunk,
Quite adorable.
Such a cute Gan when pouting.
He lifted his head to see Gan Yan Yu tidying her shirt, slightly messy.
He recalled their collision again.
After the guilt faded,
All that was left was
Oh-so-good.
Using his lips felt a bit unrefined, though.
Someday, someday he’d definitely—
Use his hands.
Decidedly so.
“To destination,”
The taxi driver took off his headphones.
He spotted Gan Yan Yu, with her shirt unbuttoned, tie askew, cheeks flushed, along with Lin Tian.
The taxi driver’s eyes glazed over.
“Thank you.”
In silence, Lin Tian helped Gan Yan Yu out of the car.
Soon after, they heard the driver’s despairing shout:
“What the hell—!”
