Chapter 510 - 509: Claiming the Reward
What appeared before her eyes was actually a patch of snow-white skin, Shen Yan had nothing under her coat...
It was understandable, Shen Yan didn’t know that Chen Tianlong would drive so fast. She was thinking of changing into something sexier, but he arrived before she could. After all, this time, that guy might be coming to receive an award, so she thought she’d make it a bit sexy.
But after trying on several outfits, none seemed right.
That’s just how women are—always so indecisive about clothes, especially when they’re about to see someone they’re interested in.
But just as she was agonizing over it, the door suddenly knocked, and she hadn’t made up her mind yet. She didn’t have a top on, so she quickly grabbed a nearby coat. She planned to close the door and continue dressing afterward.
However, she never expected that Chen Tianlong would unzip her coat.
Actually, Chen Tianlong wouldn’t have unzipped it either, but he’d been observing for a while and saw there was no shirt underneath. Normally, one should be wearing a T-shirt under a coat.
Could it be low-cut?
Thinking of this, Chen Tianlong intended to play a prank. After all, it’s just a low-cut, not naked, nothing serious.
At this moment, both were stunned.
Finally, Shen Yan reacted first, hurriedly crossing her arms to wrap the coat around herself.
"Hmph, Chen Tianlong, you big jerk...I’m not talking to you anymore." Shen Yan, utterly embarrassed, ran back to her room.
Usually, she could joke around with Chen Tianlong, but this time, the joke definitely couldn’t be continued.
Chen Tianlong realized he messed up, thinking Shen Yan was mad, so he walked to the door and said, "I’m sorry, Shen Yan, I didn’t mean to, I thought..."
Saying this, even Chen Tianlong felt too embarrassed to continue.
"Really sorry, I apologize, can you come out, please?" Chen Tianlong didn’t want to offend Shen Yan. Although they weren’t in that kind of relationship, at least they were good friends.
Just then, the door opened, and Shen Yan pouted, giving Chen Tianlong a glare.
"Alright, alright, let’s talk business now." Clearly, Shen Yan wasn’t blaming him anymore, she had put on her clothes and sat on the sofa in the room, then said, "Come over, sit here."
"Okay, as you command!"
Having just offended her, Chen Tianlong wouldn’t dare refuse, so he hastily sat beside Shen Yan.
A breeze of fragrance carried Shen Yan’s scent into Chen Tianlong’s nose, making him unconsciously glance at Shen Yan again.
"Chen Tianlong, can you promise me one thing?" Shen Yan didn’t mind Chen Tianlong’s gaze and suddenly asked.
"What thing? Just say it, if I can do it, I’ll agree." Chen Tianlong said softly.
Shen Yan smiled satisfyingly. She liked this straightforwardness in Chen Tianlong, so she got straight to the point: "It’s like this, yesterday my mom called me, telling me to bring a boyfriend home for the New Year, otherwise she’d take me to a matchmaking session, I don’t like that."
At that moment, Chen Tianlong was dumbfounded. Such a pretty girl needing to go on blind dates, it just doesn’t make sense. If he didn’t already have Wu Mengting, he’d be the first to sign up.
"And then?" Chen Tianlong asked curiously.
"Then, I told her I already have a boyfriend and that this year I’m going to see his parents, so I won’t be going home right away. I’ll bring him home in the beginning of the year; she agreed." Shen Yan said and paused again.
"Shen Yan, just get to the point." Chen Tianlong sensed there was a catch; this couldn’t be the reason she called him.
"Hehe, okay, I want you to be my boyfriend." Shen Yan said outright.
"What?"
Hearing this, Chen Tianlong was stunned and quickly said, "But, I..."
"Oh, don’t worry, it’s just pretend. Rent yourself out to me for a few days, you won’t lose anything." Shen Yan didn’t know about Chen Tianlong and Wu Mengting’s relationship, but she was just asking him to pretend, so it wouldn’t affect anything.
"Oh, so that’s it. Alright, just let me know when." Chen Tianlong thought it over, a pretend boyfriend isn’t real, so he might as well help out.
Not long after, Shen Yan explained everything clearly, and suddenly it became quiet.
"Alright, my issue is settled." Shen Yan said with a satisfied smile.
"Haha, your issue is settled, but my issue isn’t." Chen Tianlong replied lightly, "Someone mentioned a reward for making it to the top five on the final exam... a kiss."
"Oh, did such a thing happen? How come I don’t know?" Shen Yan feigned ignorance, her heart was pounding fast. She knew no matter what, she couldn’t escape the promise she made to Chen Tianlong, her mind had long prepared for this.
"No backing out, or I’ll give more than just a kiss."
"What do you want then?" Shen Yan rolled her eyes at Chen Tianlong.
"Hehe, well you know, not wearing anything underneath already tempted me, so...."
"Chen Tianlong, don’t mess around. Okay, I’ll kiss you then."
Hearing Chen Tianlong’s words, Shen Yan’s heart was racing like a little deer, her face flushed, though Chen Tianlong was just joking and wouldn’t really do anything to Shen Yan.
Just when Chen Tianlong was feeling triumphant, Shen Yan leaned over, pressing her cherry-like lips against Chen Tianlong’s.
In an instant, time seemed to stand still.
The two of them didn’t move, closing their eyes, savoring the warmth of each other.
And Shen Yan’s hands, unknowingly, wrapped around Chen Tianlong’s waist, which caught him off guard.
Despite the situation, Chen Tianlong was relatively clear-headed, after all, he is an Assassin.
At this moment, Shen Yan was lost in the moment. Over the years, she had been through so much, no one knew what she had experienced, and the suppression in her heart was fully released at this moment, lost in her kiss with Chen Tianlong.
It felt as though, at this moment, Chen Tianlong was her everything.
"Shen Yan, what’s wrong?" After about two or three minutes of kissing, Chen Tianlong sensed something was off, gently pushing Shen Yan away, only to find she wasn’t blushing, but tearful.
Chen Tianlong was shocked, what’s going on? It was just a kiss, why was she crying like this?
"Shen Yan, don’t scare me, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have demanded that, I..."
Just then, Shen Yan’s soft hand covered Chen Tianlong’s mouth, and she took a deep breath, "It’s not your fault, I just remembered some things. Okay, hehe, the prize has been given, don’t ask for it again, alright?"
Soon, Shen Yan smiled through her tears, becoming cheerful once more. This behavior left Chen Tianlong dumbfounded; her mood changes were as unpredictable as June weather.
However, seeing Shen Yan back to normal, Chen Tianlong also smiled slightly, "Got it, but next time we bet, it won’t be so easy, I’m betting something big."
"Oh, what are you betting on?" Shen Yan asked curiously.
"Betting on your first time!"
"Drop dead!"
