Raise Love-100-Airy， You're so domineering

Ryder gathered his thoughts, took a deep breath. His eyes were so dark that they seemed gloomy. With a hint of self - unaware probing, he asked in a flat tone, "Is he the one you like?"

Aria: "?"

What are you talking about?!!

Seeing that she didn't deny it, Ryder's eyes immediately darkened even more.

No way! Even if he has to snatch her, she's his now!

The long - dormant irritable and mischievous thoughts in Ryder's heart emerged without restraint, making him a bit out of control.

However, when he lowered his head, he found the little girl looking at him with a strange expression, as if she wanted to laugh but didn't quite dare.

"..."

Ryder's heart sank.

Aria now knew that Ryder liked her very much. Seeing that he didn't know who she liked and the way he was jealous and a bit flustered, her heart felt both soft and sour.

Her moon.

Her pride of the heavens, how could he be so unconfident?

Aria smiled, gently stroked the face of the boy in front of her, "It's not him. I told you already. Saying I had someone I liked was a lie. I don't like that person anymore."

Ryder looked at her with a sullen and gloomy expression, not speaking.

He didn't believe it.

Aria felt a bit annoyed.

She pursed her lips. She couldn't just tell him that the person she liked was him!

This wasn't the right time to confess.

It wasn't that she was being coy and refusing to tell him. It was like how people can never truly empathize with each other's sufferings and torments.

Those who aren't in this relationship also can't understand how difficult it is for her to suddenly talk about the beginning and end of this secret love.

It's as difficult as asking her to give up on him and stop liking him.

All she can do now is let him know that she really likes him.

If one day, they reach the end and she's always by his side, and when she grows a bit older and becomes more indifferent to life.

Then she should be able to tell him in the best and most appropriate state, as if chatting and joking, "Ryder, I liked you for so long before. You're so silly, getting jealous over nothing."

But now, now it's not possible.

The boy was silent, looking like he was wronged, making her feel heart - broken.

"Ryder," Aria cupped his face and said softly, "I like you a lot now. Can you be more confident?"

She took his hand and placed it on her heart, which would start pounding rapidly whenever she was close to him.

"Listen."

The heart beating beneath his palm was vivid and passionate.

Ryder's eyes widened slightly. The gloomy look in his eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by a magical and intense emotion.

The little girl was so soft.

Her heart seemed to beat even faster, perhaps because of his touch.

He lowered his eyelashes, and his eyes sparkled with surprise.

Aria held back her shyness and said in a low, gentle and soothing voice, "It beats so fast because of you. Can't you feel it?"

Ryder's Adam's apple rolled.

His gaze then fell on the little girl's soft, slightly puffed - up chest. He realized that his hand was still being held there by her.

The always calm, composed, and lazy him, the tips of his ears suddenly turned red, and the redness gradually spread to both ears.

He averted his gaze, coughed a bit unnaturally.

When he spoke again.

His voice was so hoarse that it was unrecognizable, with an indescribable sensuality that made the tip of one's heart tremble.

He said in a low voice, "I felt it."

The heart that had been hanging in mid - air finally settled down under the little girl's comfort.

The corners of Ryder's lips gently curled up.

He felt that the person she liked at this moment was him.

He was really easy to please.

As if finding a support, he temporarily put aside the so - called "scumbag" who was once liked by Aria. He quickly returned to his lazy and confident self.

Only his completely red ears remained as evidence.

He snorted with a smile, hooked Aria's little finger, and then took advantage of the situation to interlock their fingers tightly.

Aria: "..."

"Airy." Ryder drawled the word, his voice a bit hoarse. He looked down at her, "I was scared just now. Compensate me."

Aria looked at her hand, which was held like this for the first time.

The boy's palm was very large, much bigger than hers, wrapping her small hand, and his fingers squeezed into the gaps between hers.

The temperature was so high that her hand felt hot, and her face gradually became hot as well.

Is he still asking for compensation even after all this?

She looked at him, implicitly accusing him of being a bit excessive.

Ryder lowered his eyelashes, being completely unreasonable, lazily acting like a rascal, "I've never liked anyone else. It's just you. I almost cried just now. Aren't you going to compensate me?"

"..."

The two looked at each other.

His eyes became more and more clingy, with a hint of something like a hook, coming at her from all directions.

Aria's heart was pounding wildly, and her eyelashes fluttered. She simply had no way to deal with him.

She was silent for a moment, took a deep breath, and with their hands still held, she moved closer to him, standing on tiptoe.

Under Ryder's intense gaze, she summoned up her courage and kissed him on the side of his face, near the corner of his mouth.

Ryder was suddenly stunned, his pupils constricted.

Even after the girl had already blushed and stepped back, he was still in a daze, as if he hadn't reacted yet, and his ears became even redder.

Other than a kiss, Aria really couldn't think of anything else as a bigger compensation than holding hands.

She originally wanted to run away after the kiss, but after stepping back, she realized that her hand was still being held tightly. She tugged at it, but as if he had anticipated it, he suddenly held it even tighter and wouldn't let go.

She couldn't run away!

Aria's face was so red that it seemed like it would burst. She pursed her lips, feeling a bit desperate.

Let go! Let go of my hand!!

In just a short while, Ryder had already come back to his senses.

He looked down at the little girl whose head was almost buried in her chest, then raised his hand and touched the corner of his mouth where she had kissed him. The soft touch of the little girl's lips still seemed to be there.

So, this is what it feels like to be kissed?

Relishing that overly wonderful feeling, Ryder's eyes became dark. His black eyes were firmly fixed on Aria.

...He wanted more.

But looking at her like this, asking for more might make the little girl explode.

He leisurely withdrew his gaze, sighed softly in regret, ruffled Aria's fluffy hair, and his eyes regained their lazy look. He smiled and teased, "You only get shy after the kiss?"

Aria mumbled, "...Don't say it."

"Oh," Ryder laughed softly, "You took advantage of me, and you won't let me talk about it. Airy, you're so domineering."

Aria looked at him in disbelief: "?"

He smiled lazily, "I asked you to compensate me. I originally wanted you to give me a hug. Who knew you would suddenly come over and take liberties with me."

Aria: "..."

Aria: "..."

Speechless.

Completely speechless. She was really speechless.

She stared at Ryder, stunned.

"However... it's not so bad," Ryder moved closer to her, with an innocent expression, "Anyway, I'll be yours sooner or later."

"..." gòйЪ.ōΓg

Damn it. She had never seen such a person. He was so annoying!
