Will You be My Boyfriend

The sweetness dissolved on his taste buds and the sweet sensation travelled through Jun Yang's veins and suffused every cell in his heart. He tried not to show too much emotion lest Feng Qi would snatch this chance to tease him but he was having trouble trying to stop the corners of his mouth from curving upwards.

Feng Qi suddenly broke through the silence by asking, "Jun Yang, how is Miss M's cooking? The cake is wonderful, isn't it?"

Jun Yang nodded. "Yes, the cake is wonderful. But how come you sound so proud when you have nothing to do with the baking process?"

"Hey, at least, I helped decorated your slice!" The friendly banter between the two went back and forth. The atmosphere was one of friendliness.

Jun Yang was taking another bite from his slice when Feng Qi offered, "Since you have such high praise for the cakes, would you like to have a taste of mine?"

"Sure," Jun Yang answered easily. He assumed the young man was going to switch plates with him but instead he saw Feng Qi used his spoon to cut off the corner of his chocolate cake that he had not yet touched and scooped that small piece onto the spoon. Then he lifted the spoon from the plate and dangled the piece of cake in the space between them.

"Ahh…" he said as he tried to feed the cake to Jun Yang.

This scene was so reminiscent of a real couple that Jun Yang had to pause. A faded blush rose to his face as his eyes looked around the café. The last group of customers was in the middle of leaving, Miss M. was at the door walking them out. No one was paying them any attention.

Out of the corner of his eyes, Jun Yang noticed that Feng Qi was still holding the spoon in the air and looking at him with expectation in his eyes. It looked like he was not going to put his hand down until he got what he wanted.

Jun Yang honestly did consider just ignoring him but the sincerity in the man's eyes overwhelmed him. Plus, he was still feeling the emotions from earlier. After making sure the coast was clear, Jun Yang leaned his face forward towards the spoon.

Jun Yang opened his lips as he neared the piece of dangling cake. Just as the young man's lips were reaching the piece of dessert, Feng Qi nudged his arm that held the spoon upward and the cream on the chocolate cake 'accidentally' smudged the top right corner of Jun Yang's upper lips.

He turned and was about to call Miss M. to get some napkin when Feng Qi reached forward with a napkin in his hand. Jun Yang was about to thank him and reach for the napkin when he realized Feng Qi was leaning in further than he was required to.

Feng Qi used the napkin to dab at Jun Yang's lips. Through the thin layer of paper napkin, Jun Yang could feel Feng Qi's careful and loving caress on his skin. At that moment, his whole body froze. He did not know how to respond to this situation.

Feng Qi wiped the area around Jun Yang's lips with utmost patience and tenderness like a mother handling her newborn.

When he was done, he sat back down with a bright smile on his face. "There, all clean now."

It was not until then that Jun Yang realized what had happened. Feng Qi had just touched his face and his lips. That was honestly quite an intimate interaction. Essentially he had used his hand to kiss him.

Jun Yang's heart was racing at an impossible speed but he did not want to let it show. He picked up the cup of tea from the table to hide his face behind it. Then he even turned his face away from Feng Qi. However, all that effort went out the window when the first words that went out of his mouth were, "Thank, thank you." The stammer had belied his true feelings.

To Jun Yang's surprise, Feng Qi did not use this opportunity to tease him. Instead, the young man acted like a perfect gentleman and only responded with an absolutely detached, "You're welcome."

However, reality once again proved that Jun Yang had greatly underestimated the young man who sat across from him. The man's shamelessness truly knew no bounds.

After Jun Yang took some time to settle back in, Feng Qi slipped the napkin that he used to wipe Jun Yang's lips, under the plate. And then he asked, "Jun Yang, how was my chocolate cake? Did you enjoy it?"

Due to how flustered he was earlier, Jun Yang did not realize he was slowly walking into a scene set up by Feng Qi. He answered innocently, "It's very nice. Thank you."
