Like a doe in the forest who’s unable to look away from the hunter pointing his taut bow and arrow at her, Li Meirong sat motionless, her peach blossom eyes shimmering and her narrow shoulders lightly trembling as she locked eyes with the man in front of her.

Seeing the dazed look on her face, Bai Qingyue smirked in satisfaction, knowing that this night had been executed to perfection.

It was already obvious. He could tell she was enraptured by him. It had taken him far longer than he expected but he had finally managed to have her wrapped around his finger.

The intense blush that spread across Li Meirong’s cheeks and the sheepish smile which tugged at her lips as she raked her fingers through her hair validated his thoughts. The rouge which had been smeared over the edges of her lips and the dimples displayed on her face made her look both innocent and enticing at the same time.

"Are you embarrassed?" He asked with a tone of voice that held a teasing quality to it.

Li Meirong’s brows drew into a frown. She turned her face away from his smouldering eyes and remained silent.

Rising to his feet, Bai Qingyue walked towards her side. His tall form bent down, kneeling by the shy girl’s feet as he withdrew a silken handkerchief from his robe. With tender motions, he dabbed the cloth on her soft, yet plump lips.

"Don’t be." He said, placing the handkerchief aside and helping her to her feet.

They were now standing so close to each other that there was less than an inch of distance between them.

Bai Qingyue held Li Meirong’s chin and slowly leaned down until their breaths mingled together.

Apart from lifting the girl up, the Fox Lord had to practically crouch down to reach her lips, not because Li Meirong was a short girl but because he stood about seven feet tall.

Thus, before he could steal a kiss, the girl took the chance to press her palm against his mouth.

"You didn’t even eat anything..." Li Meirong blurted out, not entirely even certain why she said what she did. It was the first thing that came to her mind to distract him from his obvious intent.

"I do not usually eat a lot." As he spoke, his breath blew on her skin and his words were slightly muffled.
