Chapter 1010 — The Feeling of Being in Love

"Not tonight. It's already late — go up and get some proper rest," Wei Zhao said. "Isn't your father back? It wouldn't be right for me to go up."
"He's not home. He's staying at a hotel — seems he has another assignment and has to go out tonight, and he was afraid of disturbing my rest." Feng Xiaoxiao shook her head. Her father's work was always busy; she had long grown used to living on her own.
"Is that so... Then I won't come up either. See you tomorrow," Wei Zhao said with a smile.
"Oh... all right." Feng Xiaoxiao sounded a little disappointed. "Then... will you kiss me? Just once?"
She suddenly lifted her head and looked at Wei Zhao. Her bright eyes shone like stars in the night, and something stirred in Wei Zhao's heart — an urge to taste those lips. Yet he restrained himself well. Was he not moving a little too fast with Feng Xiaoxiao?
"Ha, go on up. Get a good night's sleep." Wei Zhao did not take up her words.
"Oh..." Feng Xiaoxiao was rather let down. She was desperately curious what it felt like to kiss someone; she had never experienced it. Before, the very thought of being close to a boy had made her want to retch, but with Wei Zhao, she found herself almost looking forward to it.
"I'm off," Wei Zhao said to her. "Hurry up and go inside!"
"Okay." Feng Xiaoxiao hesitated, then, seized by an impulse she could not name, she suddenly rose on her toes and planted a soft kiss on Wei Zhao's cheek. Before he could say a word, she skipped away with a giggle, afraid he might be angry, and waved at him. "Heh heh, I'm going now — that actually felt pretty nice!"
With that, Feng Xiaoxiao hurried off toward the entrance of the building.
Wei Zhao smiled, watching her flee. He touched his cheek. That fleeting sensation had been rather pleasant indeed, and he felt a sudden urge to run after her and pull her into his arms. He knew that if he wanted to go further with Feng Xiaoxiao, a girl of her temperament would certainly not refuse him. She was different from Tang Zhi — Tang Zhi was reserved and demure, while Feng Xiaoxiao was warm and fiery. He had touched her breast back in Yanjing, and she had not shown much resistance; that alone told him as much.
But Wei Zhao did not do it. That impulse was only an impulse, not the kind of love that rose from the bottom of the heart. True, he had grown somewhat fond of Feng Xiaoxiao, but he did not want the two of them to do anything too soon.
Only after watching Feng Xiaoxiao go upstairs did Wei Zhao return to his car and drive away.
Feng Xiaoxiao ran all the way into the elevator. Inside, she clutched her chest and gasped for breath, her face as red as a boiled lobster. Bold as she was, this was the first time she had ever taken the initiative to kiss a boy — even if it was only his cheek, it was enough to make her blush furiously!
Yet that electric thrill had utterly captivated her. No wonder so many young men and women were so eager to fall in love — this feeling really was wonderful!
Feng Xiaoxiao touched her burning cheeks. What did it feel like to be kissed? Kissing Wei Zhao herself had already felt absolutely wonderful. If Wei Zhao were to kiss her, would it bring a feeling of pure bliss?
Half in a daze, the elevator reached the top floor. Feng Xiaoxiao stepped out and walked to her own front door.
Her home was not one of those lavish villas, but it was a spacious duplex with only one household per floor and two elevators. Even if it had been bought years ago, a place like this in Songshan City would have cost several million.
It was just that Feng Tianlong had few expenses, and knowing his daughter did not have long to live, he had never thought of saving money. As a rule, he did everything in his power to give his daughter the best living environment he could.
Feng Xiaoxiao opened the door and went in, heading straight for the bathroom to splash cold water on her burning face. She badly needed to cool down.
