Chapter 612: The Socially Afraid Student and His Overbearing CEO Boyfriend (66)
The socially anxious classmate and his overbearing boyfriend (Part 66)
A sudden rain came outside.
Bean-sized raindrops hit the glass doors and windows of the balcony, adding a crisp music to the quiet night.
In the quiet room, the lights were not on and only the occasional sound of water proved that there was someone in the house.
Song Ning felt a little dizzy.
He kept hearing the sticky sound of water until his breathing became almost difficult. Then he recognized a second sound of water in his mind - the sound of raindrops falling on glass.
Because his legs were weak, he leaned on Lance's shoulder, and his arms unconsciously wrapped around the strong and thin waist, his eyes were filled with tears because of the difficulty in breathing.
That was because of the long and passionate kiss just now, Song Ning thought.
In the past, Song Ning never dared to imagine that there would be a day when he would kiss someone else.
Or rather, he simply couldn't imagine that someone would really like him, because he had always been looked down upon since he was a child.
Song Ning remembered that one summer, he saw a boy from the neighboring family and a girl in love.
It was a beautiful yet sad story that he inadvertently witnessed when he was twelve or thirteen years old and in junior high school.
That was one of his new neighbors.
It was summer vacation at that time. The family of Big Laba, a neighbor who always loved to gossip, suddenly moved away inexplicably, and then a family with upper-class manners and clothing moved in.
That family had a child, a boy, about the same age as himself.
Song Ning remembered that the boy loved to laugh, was polite and very knowledgeable. He had just moved in less than a week ago but he was already loved by everyone around him.
Except Song Ning.
Because Song Ning had no way of knowing that boy at all.
At the age of thirteen, he could no longer get any money from his parents, and often even had no meals on time, so during the summer vacation, Song Ning would secretly pick up scraps to exchange for money when his parents went out to play cards.
Then he soon discovered that among the garbage that the neighbor threw away every week, there was a lot of junk that could be exchanged for money.
Therefore, Song Ning secretly paid attention to the boy in that family.
Because among the boxes he picked up, many had delicious food painted on them.
There were chocolates, ice creams, and toys that he couldn't understand.
Those were things Song Ning would never dare to dream of owning, so sometimes when Song Ning didn't have enough money to buy food, he would lean on those boxes and fantasize.
If he could be born into a family that loved him, perhaps he would be like that boy, with endless chocolate and ice cream to eat and endless toys to play with.
But he probably wouldn't be like that boy at that time and use these things to date a little girl.
Because these are good things that he could only dream of getting, they are too precious.
But the good times didn't last long, as his fantasy soon ended when the boy and the girl's relationship was exposed.
He remembered that it rained heavily that day, accompanied by thunder, but it could not cover up the sound of the girl's father and the boy's father scolding each other. The girl's father later picked up a broom and almost broke her leg.
The boy's father looked at the family with disdain, and soon they disappeared from the house and were never seen again.
Later, Song Ning heard from others that the boy's father took their family abroad.
Soon no one remembered that family anymore, only the girl who was beaten began to grow long hair to cover her face. Occasionally, when a few gossipy neighbors saw her, they would always say one or two indecent words to her.
In the summer of the following year, probably the day she met the boy, the girl jumped from the roof and fell in a pool of blood, but an extremely brilliant smile bloomed on her covered face.
At that time, Song Ning didn't understand why she could still laugh; nor did she understand why the boy would use those expensive things to please the girl.
Because if he were asked to exchange the most precious thing in his body for Brother Lans' favor, he would be willing to do it, Song Ning thought.
Kissing Brother Lans made him more determined in his idea. It’s great to be in a relationship.
"Ningning, breathe."
Lance's helpless voice brought Song Ning back to his senses. When Song Ning woke up from his daze, he found himself sitting on Lance's legs, with his back leaning in Lance's arms.
Lance didn't expect that the little prince of this world would almost suffocate due to his first formal kiss. He hugged him and comforted him gently.
"Calm down a bit? Come, take a deep breath with me."
He issued instructions in his soft voice, and Song Ning subconsciously followed his rhythm and took deep breaths.
After doing all this, a sense of embarrassment crept up to Song Ning's ears. It was his first time kissing someone, and he had no idea how to breathe during a long kiss.
"Brother Lans, I'm sorry..."
Lance's fingers sealed his apology, "No need to apologize, I went too far. I should have taken it slow."
He was also surprised that he was more influenced by his human shell and easily lost the absolute rationality that the system should have.
He had taken the kiss too far, and it was no wonder that the little prince couldn't breathe during his first kiss. It was his fault.
The two people apologized to each other and then looked at each other.
The next second, they both laughed.
Song Ning was a little embarrassed but still leaned back on Lance's chest.
"I will study hard and try not to do this again next time."
Lance played with the hair of the person in his arms with his fingertips and hummed, but then spoke again.
"But don't learn too fast, take your time."
Song Ning understood something from these words, and he looked up to ponder Lance's expression.
"Brother Lans, do you want me to learn it slowly?"
Lance didn't deny it.
"I think we still have a lot of time to take it slow, so there's no need to rush."
And he really likes the young little prince, so he can take it slow.
After understanding these words, Song Ning's heart beat faster and he scratched the back of Lance's hand that was around his waist.
"Brother Lans, have you been thinking about this for that long?"
Song Ning had been confused before this, because he and Brother Lans were obviously from two different worlds.
A man in his twenties started from scratch with his outstanding abilities and connections during college, and within a few years after graduation he made several best-selling games and gained a certain reputation in the industry;
He was just an ordinary college student who was not loved by anyone. He could only live and eat normally because of the help from Brother Lans...
"I don't like that kind of talk."
Lance lowered his head and bit Song Ning's lip as if punishing her. His tone was very tough, but it made Song Ning feel soft-hearted.
"I just repaid a favor that should have been repaid. The rest is what you deserve through your own efforts. It can't be attributed to me."
After saying that, he put his arm around Song Ning's waist and picked her up, his deep blue eyes flashing with anticipation.
"And let's not discuss that right now. Let's discuss another one. Do you really want to stay tonight?"
His little prince is so young, does he really know what will happen if he stays?
