Chapter 429 A Gentleman Like Jade

"Na!"

Mei Jing took a box out of her bag and handed it to Du Liangchen with a look of anticipation.

"what?"

Du Liangchen opened his eyes wide with a mixture of doubt and anticipation as he took the book and opened it.

Inside the black gift box lay a jade pendant the size of a palm. Long, slender fingers hooked onto the chain, which was woven with beads of the same color as the jade. As the jade was lifted and swayed, the warm, orange light of the hotel room shone on it, revealing its intricate patterns.

"Why did you suddenly decide to give me jade?"

He looked up at Mei Jing in surprise, his gaze falling back on the jade pendant as he tilted his head to examine the carved patterns on it closely.

Mei Jing leaned closer to him, affectionately wrapped her arms around his waist, and rested her chin on his shoulder.

"Do you like it? I specially asked a master craftsman to carve it by hand."

Du Liangchen looked at the pattern clearly and turned her head to look at him with a smile.

"It's very pretty, I like it a lot."

"These should be a pair, right? This one is engraved with water, and the other one is with you. I'd like to take a look."

Mei Jing leaned in and kissed him on the lips, feigning surprise as she said, "Wow! You figured it out so quickly? I was thinking of giving you a surprise~"

He earned a glare from Du Liangchen. He wasn't stupid; anyone with a basic understanding of jade could tell this was a token of love.

Mei Jing reached into her collar and pulled out a jade pendant the same size as the one in Du Liangchen's hand.

"Actually, I wanted to give you a ring, but we can't wear them normally. You know what? When I first met you, you gave me the feeling that you were as clean and clear as jade."

"It just so happens that you like jade, and in ancient times, lovers would give each other jade as a token of their affection, so I started looking for materials."

"It's a pity I haven't found any good quality jadeite. You have no idea how hard it is to find a good quality piece of jadeite. Fortunately, I recently found a piece of jadeite that I thought was beautiful, so I asked a master craftsman to carve it."

Du Liangchen picked up the jade pendant that was still warm from his body and carefully examined the pattern on it. He didn't notice that Mei Jing had taken his pendant away and let him put it on himself.

Sure enough, the mountain range carved on Mei Jing's piece matched the wave pattern on his own piece.

Du Liangchen gently kissed Mei Jing on the cheek.

"Thank you, I love it."

Mei Jing smiled, her eyes crinkling, and suddenly gave him a kiss on the cheek. "Hehe~ I'm glad you like it."

Having not worn anything around his neck for a long time, Du Liangchen felt a little uncomfortable with such a large jade pendant hanging on him all at once, and moved his neck left and right a couple of times.

Mei Jing asked with concern, "What's wrong? Does your neck hurt? Are you tired?"

Du Liangchen said with a grin, "It's alright, it just feels a bit heavy."

Upon hearing this, Mei Jing pinched the back of his neck. "Ah! If it's uncomfortable, just take it off~"

"It's probably because I haven't worn it for a long time. I'll get used to it in a couple of days." Du Liangchen squinted comfortably and said reluctantly, "How can I take it off since you gave it to me? I won't take it off unless it's for training or a competition."

Mei Jing's heart raced, feeling a tingling sensation as if her heart had been injected with anesthesia. She couldn't help but lean over and rub her nose against his neck.

The warm, humid air hit his sensitive spots, and Du Liangchen groaned uncomfortably, trying to dodge forward, but a large hand gripped his waist, forcing him to struggle helplessly and fall onto the sofa.

Mei Jing, feeling playful, pressed down on him and tickled him. Looking at her struggling lover beneath her, her cheeks flushed with laughter, her collar disheveled, and the hem of her shirt rolled up to reveal a slender yet strong waist. Her excited gaze gradually dimmed.

Arms encircled his sides to prevent him from escaping, and the weight pressing down on his body gradually increased, making it impossible for him to break free.

The pleasure from the friction between their bodies made his breathing more and more rapid, and his burning gaze was gradually filled with lust.

Sensing the change in Mei Jing, Du Liangchen was frozen in place and dared not move.

"Sweetie, calm down, we need to get up early to go back tomorrow..."

The concert recording finished too late, and there were no more high-speed rail tickets left. The earliest train is around 5 a.m. tomorrow.

Mei Jing didn't want Du Liangchen to go through the hassle of flying, and if they chose to take the high-speed train back tomorrow morning, they would still make it to class in time. So they discussed with everyone that they would stay here tonight and set off early tomorrow morning.

Now, the group has checked into the hotel, and Mei Jing pulls Du Liangchen to her room to look at the gifts.

Mei Jing kissed him passionately, but sensing the other person's lack of interest, she bit his lower lip hard and rubbed it against him.

Distracted, Du Liangchen felt a pain in his mouth, which pulled him back to the present, forcing him to endure the impending storm raging in the building.
