Imperfect Desires

531 Hate To Lie But Love This Lie

At first, when his lips lightly touched hers, Ying's mind went blank. It's important to mention that even though Ying had lived an adventurous and somewhat dangerous life but she had faithfully and solely loved one man in her life. That's the reason this happened to be her very first kiss.

That very first kiss that is either capable of igniting a fire in her bones or pouring a bucket of cold water on her. As for what opinion she had of this kiss...

Well, she could only say that she felt like she had come up to take a breath of air finally after spending a lifetime underwater. She didn't know many things about Han Bohai but at this moment, she was certain that she wouldn't mind learning.

Against all reasons, they were kissing and she let him kiss without putting up any resistance. In fact, she closed her eyes and just let the world around drift away into oblivion. She wanted to let this moment sink deep within her memory to overshadow every single thing that had been bothering her.

The intensity of emotions and feelings he tried to convey with that kiss left Ying in a spellbinding. The kiss was so slow that it felt like he had all the time in the world to just do this; kissing her. The curious childish delight with which he had been kissing her was making her mind go dizzy and she felt giddy inside as well.

His one hand was running through her hair while the other cupped her face. He was really taking his sweet time. And Ying could feel like there were a million things running through her mind and yet she had nothing in her mind at all. Because all she could concentrate on was the way his lips kissed hers. Lovingly, longingly, cautiously, and carefully. It made her want to smile.

His lips slowly drew away but his eyes didn't look away. His hand was still right by the side of her face while his thumbpad caressed her cheek gently.

It wasn't a passionate kiss. It didn't even feel like he was looking for something more. And yet it left Ying speechlessly staring into his eyes smiling at her.

"Trial boyfriend is still a boyfriend," said Han Bohai in a slightly hoarse voice. Ying just stupidly nodded her head at him and said nothing making him laugh at her reaction.

He was honestly very surprised at her reaction because he had expected her to kick him or punch him. With her ever so feisty personality, he was even ready to be buried right here. But who knew that she won't resist. So, the original plan of just stealing a small kiss was thrown out the window and he took his time cherishing this rare moment when she wasn't trying to fight her way against him.

"I wished for three things early in the morning today," started Han Bohai and Ying quirked her brows at him. "One, to see you. Two, to hug you. Three, to kiss you. I feel blessed today. Do you think I should take my chance and propose you for marriage as well?"

As if recalling something, she whipped around and glared at him, "You! You didn't know I was your blind date but you still came on a blind date?!"

"Uh-oh!" was the only thing Han Bohai could utter right now.

He didn't get beaten up for kissing her but unexpectedly he was definitely gonna get beaten up for doing this. Why did he come to this stupid blind date? Wait! If he didn't come how would he have this wonderful moment with her? Now, he was in a dilemma whether to curse this blind date setting or not?

Dropping to his knees, he hugged her leg making her almost fall as he said, "Trust me, it's against my will. I was tricked and forced. How else would I come here? I can't even think about going behind your back even in my wildest dreams! You have to believe me. But I'm still willing to apologize and do anything to make it up to you."

Ying was truly amused by his way of admitting his fault without missing a beat. But it was rare seeing him panic, so she continued, "Why should I believe you? I don't even know you that well."

He tilted his head up with an aggrieved look on his face said, "But you do believe that I love you, right?" Ying was taken aback by that question. Did she believe him? He had repeated it every single time they met. It would be wrong to say that it didn't affect her especially when she never felt like he was lying. Taking her silence as her answer, he went on, "So, have faith in my love. I really was tricked. My uncle said I'm having tea with him. I only got to know that it's a blind date after I came here."

"Then why didn't you leave after learning the truth?" she questioned.

"Because my uncle said that we can't afford to slight the other party." Saying this he paused and thought about it before adding, "Now that I see it's you, I totally agree with him. I can't afford to upset you. I'm sorry!"

"First, get up," said Ying and he looked at her ruefully. "I said get up or I'll really be upset now."

"Oh!" He hurriedly stood up to see Ying rubbing her forehead. "Is everything okay?"

Ying laughed which sounded really scary as she answered, "I'm just amazed at how fast my grandmother's network is. In just a few hours, she figured out I was talking about you and even tricked me into this blind date..."

Even if Ying at first thought that this was a coincidence, now she didn't think so. Definitely it was her grandmother's plan to shackle her in the lie she concocted herself. This was why she hated lying because it was eventually gonna make her suffer.

But looking at Han Bohai looking at her gently, she couldn't help thinking, 'Damn! I hate to admit but I really like this lie.'
