Chapter 37: Only Children Make Promises:
“If?” Ling Kong chuckled.
Just as he thought, she was very concerned about this matter!
“If my identity were also very special, would you mind?” Ling Kong continued to smile.
He was an imperial prince, and she was the descendant of the Demon Sect. In truth, they were sworn enemies!
“Of course not! No matter what your identity is, I wouldn’t mind!” Jiang Ruoxi quickly replied.
To her, Ling Kong was the most important!
No matter his identity, she would never have even the slightest disdain for him!
“You don’t mind my identity, so how could I mind yours?” Ling Kong smiled gently.
Seeing the look in his eyes and the tender smile on his face, Jiang Ruoxi felt a warmth rise in her heart. It was wonderful!
“Then we have an agreement! No matter what happens in the future, no matter what our identities are, we will never despise each other!” Jiang Ruoxi extended her pinky finger.
Ling Kong couldn’t help but laugh.
What was this?
A pinky promise?
Were they children?
Instead of making a childish pinky promise, since they were adults, he decided to use an adult method.
He grabbed Jiang Ruoxi’s hand and suddenly pulled her close. Then, he pressed his lips directly onto hers.
“Mmm…”
Jiang Ruoxi’s pupils widened, and her mind went blank!
What?
What was happening?
He was kissing her?
Just like that?
So suddenly?
Jiang Ruoxi froze completely in Ling Kong’s embrace, her face flushed.
Her beautiful, starry eyes even welled up with some mist, a result of the sudden excitement and shyness!
At least give her some mental preparation!
Such a sudden move was overwhelming!
Under the moonlight, the scene froze on the rooftop with the du tightly embracing each other. Thankfully, it was night, and no one saw them.
Otherwise, this display of affection would have been quite unexpected!
Only the little Ice Phantom Wolf cub beside them looked up with its big, ice-blue eyes at its male and female owners.
It wasn't a dog; it was a noble Ice Phantom cub. It didn’t eat dog food.
The tender kiss lasted a long time before Ling Kong finally let go. He then smiled mischievously. “Only children make pinky promises!”
“You…” Jiang Ruoxi’s face was so red it seemed like it would start dripping blood.
Clenching her fists, she couldn’t find the words to say.
Back in the Magic Beast Valley, she had sensed that he wanted to kiss her. But now, he actually did!
While it wasn’t appropriate in the valley, here… it was more suitable.
But still, it was a bit much to handle so suddenly. They had just confirmed their future relationship, hadn’t they?
She had just wanted to make a pinky promise with him!
What did he mean by 'only children make pinky promises'?
They weren’t that old either!
Moreover, this was her first kiss, and it had been taken so suddenly!
Although, in her imagination, it was always going to be Ling Kong.
“Don’t worry, no matter what your identity is! From now on, you have only one identity!” Ling Kong licked his lips and continued with a smile. “You’re my woman!”
“What do you mean, your woman? I’m not your woman!” Jiang Ruoxi said, her face flushed, and she pouted slightly. “At most… I’m your girlfriend!”
It was still a long way from being his woman.
“After what happened that day, you’re not my woman?” Ling Kong suddenly teased with a smile.
Jiang Ruoxi’s face changed dramatically at his words!
She turned her head sharply to stare at Ling Kong. So… he really did something to her that day in her room?
Oh my! But she didn’t feel anything, and she was still a virgin! The final step hadn’t been taken, but everything else had?
“What exactly did you do to me that day?” Jiang Ruoxi quickly asked.
“I didn’t do anything!” Ling Kong smirked.
“You’re lying! That’s not what you just said!”
“What did I just say?”
“You said… you said I’m your woman! If nothing happened, how could I be your woman?”
“Does something have to happen for you to be my woman?”
“Doesn’t it? Otherwise, I’m just a girl. I’m just a girl!”
“Alright, alright. Then you’re still a girl!”
“So what did you do to me that day? Tell me, won’t you? I won’t be mad!”
Under the night sky, the duo started to play around on the rooftop...
These two people, usually so cold and aloof, melted together. From now on, their journey forward would be accompanied by each other!
The duo stayed on the rooftop until midnight...
After all, they had never sat together like this before!
Under the moonlight, Jiang Ruoxi leaned her head slightly on Ling Kong’s shoulder.
This was something she had always dreamed of, and now it had become reality!
She felt very happy!
“Aren’t you going to sleep?” Ling Kong suddenly asked.
It’s already midnight. Are you really not tired?
Even the little Ice Phantom Wolf pup beside them was already asleep!
“Are you… starting to get tired of me?” Jiang Ruoxi suddenly raised her head.
She just wanted to stay with Ling Kong, not wanting to be apart!
It wasn’t that she didn’t want to sleep, but she didn’t want to leave him!
But if Ling Kong asked this, was he implying that she should go?
They had just gotten together, and he was already tired of her?
“Of course not!” Ling Kong wrapped his arms around Jiang Ruoxi.
“What I mean is… if you want to sleep, why not sleep here with me? Although there’s only one bed, it’s big enough for both of us!”
