1 Year Of Beginning

Can I kiss you?

The question rang in Feng Mian's ear as she looked at Zhang Liang with a dumbfounded expression. Back when he first kissed her, he didn't even bother asking and just asked her whether she could act or not. Now, he asked?

Zhang Liang noticed her confusion and smiled lightly. "I can't have you react that way under the gaze of people, right?"

Ah.

Feng Mian didn't dare to tilt her head, but she knew that there must be some people in the hall who were looking in their direction. If Feng Mian refused and rejected him, it would be clear to them that they were not really couples. After all, it would reflect badly on Zhang Liang's image.

At this time, Feng Mian could see Zhang Liang was looking at her patiently. There was no impatience in his eyes. He wanted her to give him an answer and would not force her.

Right now, Feng Mian's mind is in utter chaos. Even though she always wanted to only kiss the person she loved, when she found him in the future, she knew that she needed to act. Considering how patient Zhang Liang has always been all this time, Feng Mian knew that it wouldn't be right to refuse him.

It was just a kiss.

She had kissed him before, so it shouldn't be that hard. Besides, they needed the act to convince other people.

Slowly, Feng Mian nodded her head. Her voice came out as a mumble, completely different than when she berated Su Anya just now.

"Yeah."

Zhang Liang smiled lightly when he got her answer. He leaned in. As his face grew closer to Feng Mian he pressed his lips lightly to her lips. His right hand still held her chin carefully, making sure that he didn't hold her too hard.

At this time, Feng Mian could sense something cold and wet pressed on her lips. She could faintly taste the red wine, which was sweet and bitter. She stared at Zhang Liang's eyes that were staring at her own eyes before she closed her own eyes. His breath tickled her skin.

The kiss only lasted a short time before Zhang Liang pulled back. He looked at Feng Mian's expression. Different than before, he could see her cheek was tinged red. It was clear that she must have been feeling embarrassed just now.

Zhang Liang chuckled and pressed his lips to her forehead.

"Brother Liang?" Feng Mian finally found her voice again when Zhang Liang's lips touched her forehead.

"Let me take you up."

"Uh, ok."

Feng Mian tried to hide her face as Zhang Liang led her to the lift. He noticed the lift was coming to the floor and pressed the button.

Ding!

'So quick!'

Feng Mian was surprised, but she was also happy that it came so quick. Any longer and she was sure that her cheek would have turned completely red because of her embarrassment.

In the hall, some people were indeed looking towards the place because they saw so many Zhang Family members going there. Even though they knew the restroom was located in that place, they didn't expect to see so many people going there. And the women took a really long time.

Afterwards, they could see Zhang Liang and Feng Mian. When he pressed her to the wall, many were already dumbfounded.

Then he kissed her.

They all turned their head to look at Zhang Xue, who was also looking in that direction. After all, it was strikingly similar to what Zhang Xue had done back then to show off.

'Agh, that dumbass Liang! WHY DID HE COPY ME?'

Lu Di La noticed many were looking in their direction. When her line of sight came to Zhang Liang and Feng Mian, her lips curled up into a small smile. "Your brother is also similar to you, Xue."

"Ugh, he's an idiot."

"If he's an idiot, that means you're an even bigger idiot."

Zhang Xue smiled bitterly at his wife's harsh jab. He rubbed his forehead. Back then, he kissed Lu Di La because he wanted to show off his love to her. However, he knew for sure that Zhang Liang only stayed with Feng Mian because of a contract.

Even though he didn't know the details of the contract, he knew that the two of them shouldn't be this close. If Zhang Liang and Feng Mian were only acting, they did really good. Many single women were already embarrassed and turned their heads away. Some bold ones were staring, though.

Zhang Yi was still in the room. He noticed that many of his old friends were looking in his direction.

"Yi, I really wonder what you teach your sons."

"Yeah. I thought the troublemaker one is just Xue. But it seems that Liang is also the same."

Hearing their words, Zhang YI's lips twitched. The one who created more trouble for him has always been Liang. However, because of Zhang Liang's good track record in school and so on, people often didn't realize it. The one they paid attention to was Zhang Xue because it was clearer that he created a lot of problems in the past.

Internally, Zhang Yi lamented. Why did he have two sons who loved to create trouble for him?

This couldn't be. He should be the one bothering them!

Zhang Xue noticed his father's face and his heart fell. He knew that he would be in for some problems in the future with the way his father looked. However, he kept his expression firm. The dinner is not yet finished.

Ding!

The lift arrived on their floor and Zhang Liang walked ahead. Feng Mian followed him from behind until they reached the floor.

Klek!

"You can rest inside. I'll tell Father and the rest that you're not feeling good."

"En."

Zhang Liang wanted to say more, but seeing Feng Mian's reddened face, he chose not to speak anything else. It would be better to let her rest inside the room.

Walking to the room, Feng Mian closed the door and walked to her bedroom. She hurriedly walked to the bedroom and washed her body and changed her clothes to comfortable pajamas. All along, her cheeks still feel hot.

Plop!

Feng Mian threw her body to the bed and buried her face on the pillow.

When Zhang Liang had kissed her just now, she didn't feel the same dislike she had in the past. It was as if she had accepted his touch and only feel embarrassed because she knew that a lot of people were watching.

Feng Mian screamed, but the pillow blocked her sound from escaping outside. She still felt VERY embarrassed.
