Chapter 685 A Secret Kiss
In the end, Leon decided toy down on his side of the bed. Anyway, it wasn''t a big deal since he
just simply shared the same bed with her, not to mention, there was a quilt between them.
He didn''t know what kind of mood he was in. He just closed his eyes—out of sight, out of mind.
Although he couldn''t see anything with his eyes closed, his ears became more sensitive to the
things around. That was why he heard the sound of Michelle''s footsteps even though she almost
walked on tiptoes to avoid disturbing him. Then the sound of the wardrobe being opened came to
his ears, seeming like she had taken something out.
"Leon..."
"Ah, what?" Before Michelle could even finish her words, Leon sat up on the bed quickly, like a
frightened deer.
Michelle turned around to look at him with her eyes wide open and her lips slightly parted. She
blinked a few times, holding a creamy white nket in her hand, obviously startled.
For a moment, Leon was too embarrassed to say a word. He wanted to curse himself for the way
he reacted. When his eyes fell on the nket she was holding, he immediately understood what
she meant. "I tend to be a little nervous when I''m drunk. Is that nket for me? Thank you."
As soon as Michelle came back to her senses, she cleared her throat and handed the nket to
him. "I usually use the quilt when the air conditioner is on at night to avoid catching a cold. But the
quilt had been folded, so we could only use the nket."
"Okay. It''s alreadyte, you should go to bed."
"Well, Leon, I have something to tell you. Can we leave the light on when we sleep?" Michelle
pointed at the light on the ceiling.
The reason why she asked this was because she already knew that Leon couldn''t sleep with the
lights off.
She knew that boys cared so much about their pride, so she didn''t expose Leon''s weakness, nor let
him find out that she had known it. She had to keep it as a secret.
However, Michelle had always been bad at lying. She pressed her lips together and held her breath
as she looked at him without blinking. She knew that if she looked away, she would expose herself.
But in Leon''s point of view, her fear meant something else. In his eyes, she wanted to leave the light
on because she was afraid that he would do something to her in the darkness.
Therefore, heughed at himself secretly. ''It seems like she dislike me so much.'' She once said that
she wanted to find a boyfriend as good-looking as him, but it was impossible to find another him in
the world. She was on guard, which made him wonder if she was scared that he would do
something obscene to her in the dark.
Michelle only treated him as her brother, just as how he treated her as his sister. He really didn''t
n to do anything obscene to her.
At least, for now. It hadn''t crossed his mind yet.
As for the future... He was about to reject the idea, but when he looked at Michelle''s eyes, he
changed his mind.
Maybe...just maybe, he would have feelings for her one day. Only time could tell.
"Okay, we won''t turn off the light." A faint smile appeared on Leon''s face. He liked it better when the
lights were on as he slept, so it was favorable to him.
Hearing this, Michelle shed a sweet smile. "Goodnight, Leon. Sweet dreams."
"Good night. Sweet dreams." This time, Leon was more rxed when hey down again. He raised
his arm in order to block the light in the room.
The blindfolds he was using were in the next room. He was already toozy to get them, and he
didn''t want to bother Michelle either. After all, she was not his maid.
Soon, Michelley down beside him quietly. But she didn''t dare to get too close to him, for fear that
Leon would feel ufortable. Moreover, the quilt in between them took a lot of space, so she was
pushed to the edge.
Her eyes were closed, but she was still wide awake. She couldn''t fall asleep with the light on, and
with Leon sleeping next to her.
It made her restless. She liked to hold something in her arms while sleeping. She was afraid that
she would hug Leon and frighten him. It would surely embarrass her.
Well, to be honest, she really wanted to hug him. She wanted to get close to him and smell his
scent, but she couldn''t do that.
Afraid that Leon would be disturbed by the noise, she didn''t dare to turn over and stayed still as if
she was asleep. If her eyes weren''t moving, it would really look like she was sleeping.
Maybe it was due to the alcohol that Leon fell asleep easily. His hand covering his eyes slowly
dropped, revealing his perfectly-carved face.
Hearing this slight movement, Michelle opened her eyes and slowly turned her body. She could only
see one side of his handsome face, but it was enough to fascinate her.
The light shone on his face, and his features became gentle. His long eyshes covered eyes.
When she took a closer look, his eyshes trembled as if they had sensed that someone had
invaded Leon''s private space.
For a moment, Michelle just lie on the folded quilt and stared at his sleeping face. It was the most
wonderful view she had ever seen.
A few minutester, his eyes moved slightly behind his eyelids, making her tremble in fear. Shey
back and pretended to be asleep, pricking up her ears to hear if Leon had been awakened.
Fortunately, he seemed to be in a deep sleep. He wasn''t awakened by the sound of her
approaching; he just turned over to his side, facing Michelle.
After a while, Michelle quietly opened one of her eyes to check the situation. When she confirmed
that Leon was still asleep, she breathed out a sigh of relief and climbed on the quilt again.
Her movements were small, because she didn''t want to wake him up. She rested her chin in her
hands, and watched him with a smile.
Her eyes shifted from his closed eyes to his slightly pursed lips. They were neither too thick nor too
thin. The corners of his lips were slightly upward, so even if he was not smiling in his sleep, he gave
off a very gentle feeling.
Leon''s lips were slightly moist, looking attractive and kissable.
It made Michelle want to kiss him.
Just a gentle kiss.
At this moment, she had the urge to lick those delectable lips the ways she saw couples kissing in
TV dramas and in school.
People seemed to be fond of kissing, so it must be sweet. She wanted to have a try.
The hands she was using to support her chin slowly pulled down and clenched into fists. Then she
summoned up her courage and slowly approached him.

''Just a gentle kiss, '' she told herself.
As the seconds passed, their faces got closer and closer, until Michelle could already feel that the
air could no longer pass through between them. Long breaths sprayed on her face, which ignited
her desire more.
Her heart was beating wildly in her chest, and her face was flushed.
She even couldn''t breathe smoothly.
If it went on like this, she was afraid she would die from suffocation.
''Whatever, just kiss him.''
With this thought, Michelle leaned over and quickly nted a soft kiss on his lips.
It was just a quick and light kiss. She didn''t even taste the sweetness of his lips at all.
But it was enough to intoxicate Michelle. Her entire face and even her ears turned crimson red as if
she drank some alcohol.
In a hurry, she turned over and ran to the balcony. Her chest was constantly undting as she
gasped for air. Until dawn, her heart kept hammering in her chest.
Michelle was afraid that she would have a cardiac arrest.
The next morning, Leon suddenly opened his eyes, as if he had woken up from a nightmare.
He stared at the ceiling nkly, breathing heavily. As he recalled the scene in his dream, he couldn''t
help but lick his lips.
He couldn''t believe that he would have such a dream.
In his dream, Michelle stole a kiss from him.
It was just a gentle kiss, but his ears turned red as he imagined it.
''Damn it! Leon, you are such a bastard, ''
he cursed inwardly.
Heat was spreading through his body, so he got up and went straight to the bathroom. He washed
his face with cold water to put out the fire in him. Looking at his reflection in the mirror, he found that
his ears were still red.
He felt ashamed.
It seemed like he couldn''t simply treat Michelle as his sister from now on.
