When she was younger, she had dreamed—dreams filled with the innocence of a maiden's first kiss. In those dreams, Han Chengchi had held her hand and kissed her cheek, making her heart flutter like a deer and her cheeks blush like the sunset.
However, at the Gu Family residence, when Han Chengchi kissed her, the first thing that came to her mind was that dream, and she thought it was just another dream. Yet, she distinctly felt that this dream was different from the ones she had before.
Her heart did not race like a deer, nor did her cheeks blush like the sunset; instead, she was merely stunned, her mind a blank slate.
Even now, when she closed her eyes, she could not recall what Han Chengchi's kiss had tasted like or felt like. Instead, she felt an indescribable awkwardness and discomfort.
But she couldn't discern where that awkwardness and discomfort stemmed from—what was their cause, their origin?
Was it because of Han Chengchi's kiss?
