"Uh... I-I swear I wasn't trying to tease you. I've got another reason, but I... I just can't figure out how to say it right now..." Shawn Young blurted, seeing Luna Xiao's irritation and scrambling to explain.
"Another reason? What exactly is it?" Luna Xiao asked him coldly.
"Uh... well, I... it's kind of embarrassing to say..." Shawn Young admitted awkwardly. Honestly, he really had no idea how to explain it to Luna Xiao. She felt so special to him that he hadn't dared to even think of anything inappropriate.
"Just say it... Don't be so wishy-washy. Relax, I'm not a child. Whatever it is, I can handle it!" Luna Xiao shot him a glance and said.
"Really... you want me to say it?" Shawn Young still asked her cautiously.
"Of course! I'm not going to bite you... Just spit it out already!" Luna Xiao was clearly getting annoyed with Shawn Young's timid style and couldn't help but tease him.
Hearing that, Shawn Young realized he couldn't avoid it any longer. He gritted his teeth, and suddenly moved his body closer to her, pressing right up against her.
"W-what are you trying to do?" Luna Xiao asked in a trembling voice, clearly startled by his sudden move.
Shawn Young ignored her surprise, quickly leaned in and whispered a few words in her ear, then darted back to his seat and said, "That's the reason..."
Luna Xiao's beautiful face showed no expression, but her delicate body shivered slightly. Suddenly, she turned her head to look out the window, falling silent.
Shawn Young had no idea if Luna Xiao actually believed what he’d said. His heart was pounding, nerves on edge, and he silently prayed, "Please, heavens, don’t let her think I’m some kind of pervert…"
After a long moment, Luna Xiao finally turned her head, startling Shawn Young out of his anxious thoughts. At some point, she’d removed her Facial Morphing Mask, revealing her true face.
It was the first time Shawn Young had ever seen Luna Xiao so close. He realized that this mysterious woman’s looks, figure, aura, and even her faint fragrance were all absolutely perfect…
Her elegant brows and sparkling eyes held the charm of a goddess; her skin was as soft as water, flawless and delicate. A unique, alluring scent drifted from her body, adding an irresistible, almost mystical allure. She seemed like an untouchable fairy—her glossy black hair was casually pinned up, a few strands falling over her smooth shoulders. The gentle curve of her shoulder blades hinted at sensuality, and her chest was proud and full. Her slender waist seemed fragile, leading to a dramatic, curvy silhouette that no artist could ever capture. This was beauty beyond the reach of any brush, existing only on her, stunning and unforgettable…
Her unmatched, dreamy beauty fused perfectly with her mysterious, icy aura, creating an irresistible magic.
"She’s so beautiful it takes my breath away!" Shawn Young couldn’t help but shout in his heart…
Seeing Shawn Young staring at her so intently, Luna Xiao’s stunning face blushed with rare shyness. She teased him, "Why are you looking at me like that…?"
"Oh, I—I just think you’re… you’re way too beautiful… I couldn’t help myself, haha…" Shawn Young stammered, but seeing her reaction, his worries melted away.
After meeting so many gorgeous women, Shawn Young was no longer a rookie in the game of love—he’d become a seasoned player. Just one look at Luna Xiao’s expression told him she wasn’t offended by his words at all!
"Wow… I’m just realizing how thick-skinned you are…" Luna Xiao rolled her eyes at him, her cheeks blooming with two radiant blushes.
"Oh… I’m actually pretty normal, and my self-control isn’t bad, you know. If any other guy saw how gorgeous you are, I bet they’d lose their minds way more than me…" Shawn Young grinned, playfully exaggerating his praise for Luna Xiao.
Sure enough, Luna Xiao’s flawless face blushed again. She scoffed at Shawn Young, "Hmph… I bet you use those same lines on every girl you meet…"
"Totally! And it works every time… If you don’t believe me, you can let me try it on you," Shawn dared, jokingly.
"Ugh… I’m done talking to you. You’re such a smooth-talker, never serious… Honestly!" Luna Xiao’s exquisite face turned even redder, her full chest heaving with nervous breaths, making her beauty even more breathtaking.
Shawn Young felt his mind go blank, and before he knew it, he leaned forward and planted a quick kiss on her soft cheek, then hurriedly retreated to his seat.
"Ah… You… you…" Luna Xiao froze, stunned that Shawn Young would dare sneak a kiss like that. In all her twenty years, nothing like this had ever happened to her.
She’d always lived a lonely life, even as the leader of her group, always above everyone else. Because of her special constitution, she’d never expected to accept a man, let alone experience something as bold as Shawn Young’s impulsive move…
Seeing Luna Xiao staring at him in shock, Shawn Young grew nervous—after all, that kiss was pure impulse. He gave an awkward smile, trying to cover up his anxiety.
To his surprise, after a moment of astonishment, Luna Xiao covered her blushing face, staring at Shawn Young with disbelief. She murmured, "Oh my god… So everything you said was true!"
"Uh… What are you talking about?" Shawn Young was totally confused by what she meant.
"I mean… what you told me earlier… I thought you were just messing with me. I never imagined… I can’t believe it’s actually true!!" Luna Xiao’s gorgeous face was a mix of shock, shyness, and excitement, like she’d just discovered a whole new world.
