Rebirth: Once Again With You

Li Caiyi released him upon noticing that people began to stare. She took a step away and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand.

"How's that? Painful, right?"

"Not at all. You can keep biting if you want." Dai Zhiqiang answered nonchalantly.

Li Caiyi spat the taste of blood from her mouth before continuing. "You are so sly. You know I can't continue to do that in public like this."

"Then should we move to a more private place first? Do you want to come over to my place?"

Li Caiyi was stunned. He casually shifted the topic and asked her to come to his place. She squinted her eyes suspiciously. "What are you planning now?"

Dai Zhiqiang took out a handkerchief from his pocket before wiping the blood on his finger. "I didn't plan anything. I really just wanted to resolve any hard feelings between us. How about it? You can bite me in other places if you want; no one will disturb us there."

Li Caiyi blushed after hearing his ambiguous remark. It made her think of various sexy situations, and she quickly shook her head to chase away those thoughts.

"My grudge won't settle just from biting you. It's not that simple!"

"Then, should I let you tie me up and beat me too? I never knew you liked that kind of play." Dai Zhiqiang smirked playfully.

She blushed even more when her mind automatically thought of Dai Zhiqiang in a topless state, all tied up on the bed. The most embarrassing part was that she actually wanted to see it happen.

"Agh, stop making me imagine things! You are missing the point here!"

Dai Zhiqiang had fun teasing her like this. He stared meaningfully at her as his smirk deepened, "What did you imagine just now? You know you can make your imagination into reality anytime. I would gladly offer myself to you whenever you want."

"Dai Zhiqiang, can't you be serious for once? You have been gotten increasingly unscrupulous in the years I didn't meet you."

"Unscrupulous? We are adults now, and I have already seen everything about you. I know about how you like to have xxxx and xxxx."

"Waah! Waah!" Li Caiyi exclaimed in panic as she quickly clamped his naughty mouth using her hand. Her face was as red as a tomato as she glanced around; she hoped nobody had heard that just now.

Dai Zhiqiang was surprised at first, but later his gaze softened. He held her hand and pressed his lips against her palm more, relishing the sweet feminine smell that only belonged to her.

His action made Li Caiyi even more flustered. She tried to retract her hand from him, but he held it firmly in place.

Li Caiyi could feel his lips moving on her palm, and the ticklish feeling sent shivers all over her body.

"H-Hey! Can't you see people staring? Stop this!" Li Caiyi scolded her in a low voice.

Dai Zhiqiang opened his eyes slightly. Desire brewed in his eyes as he looked at her eyes. It was like he wanted to devour her right there and then.

Li Caiyi's chest tightened, seeing his expression. She remembered well the meaning behind those hot stares. Her heart thumped so loudly she was afraid he would hear it.

"Li Caiyi," Dai Zhiqiang called out to her in a husky voice, making him look more seductive than before.

She gulped nervously, without knowing what to say. Her mind drew blank with how intensely Dai Zhiqiang looked at her.

"It's fine if you don't want to bite me, but can you stay over at my place tonight?" His voice was urgent, almost pleading.

"I-I don't think that's a good idea." Li Caiyi looked away because her heart couldn't take it anymore.

Dai Zhiqiang always had this rough edge charm in him before, but now he has matured into a fine adult. The roughness had been subdued a lot, leaving a devilish mysterious charm.

Aside from his proactiveness, the current Dai Zhiqiand slowly turned into the same man who held her tight in the night when she gave up everything. Li Caiyi knew following him was probably not a good idea, yet she still did it anyway.

The same temptation now served before her, but their feelings were much more profound than before. It was easy to get swept up in that river of emotion and lust.

There was a heavy tension in the air as he waited for her answer.

"Dai Zhiqiang, I think we should part here." Li Caiyi said in the end. She didn't think it would be alright to continue while she still had complicated feelings about him.

A trace of disappointment flashed through his eyes before he slowly lowered her hand. "Alright. I won't force you to do things you don't want to."

"T-Thanks," Li Caiyi tucked her hair behind her ears nervously before quickly adding, "Then, I'll take my leave first. Let's talk about the matter we discussed later."

Li Caiyi felt like she would change her mind if she didn't leave, so she dared not to stall time.

"I'll walk you home," Dai Zhiqiang offered.

"No, it's fine. My apartment is not far from here."

"Then I will follow behind you. I won't do anything. I just want to make sure you arrive home safely."

Li Caiyi groaned. "Don't do that. It's creepy. Are you a stalker?"

"It's not stalking if I already notified you beforehand. Don't feel burdened and just walk home like usual. I'll keep you safe." Dai Zhiqiang argued with a deadpan expression as though he found nothing wrong with his logic, rendering her speechless by his shamelessness.

But then again, he wasn't exactly wrong either. It was probably better than him insisting on walking side by side with her. The tension from before hadn't subsided yet, so she was worried she would get swept up in his pace.

"Do as you please. But you must leave as soon as you see me entering my house."

"I will keep that in mind."

Eventually, they walked down the street separately. Dai Zhiqiang strode several meters behind her, but their minds were one.

Li Caiyi kept resisting the urge to look back, while Dai Zhiqiang kept hoping for her to look back at him even once.

The distance between them right now was like the distance between their hearts. Li Caiyi didn't let him get close to her easily, so if she looked back at him even once, Dai Zhiqiang would be content with that.

One step…two steps….

As she said, her apartment was just a short distance from Yueguang. It didn't take long before they finally arrived at her house.

Throughout the trip, Li Caiyi hadn't looked back even once. Dai Zhiqiang didn't know what to do with the melancholy he felt inside.

He stood by the apartment entrance, contemplating whether he should escort her to her room or not when Li Caiyi suddenly called out to him. "Dai Zhiqiang."

Dai Zhiqiang raised his head expectantly and found her fidgeting in her place nervously.

"Uhm, do you want to go upstairs? I have some band-aids in my room for your finger."
