Xiang Ling's eyes grew wide as she felt her lips coming in touch with the warm and soft pair that belonged to the Mer Crown Prince. He cupped her face between his palms and pulled her head up as he deepened the kiss.
All that she could hear was the loud thumping of her heart and the dead silence in the hall while she stood there like a statue. She was so taken aback that she wasn't even able to enjoy the kiss properly. Before she could have been able to pull herself together, Zhe Yuan was already ending the kiss.
Pulling back from the kiss, the man gave her a wide smile before he pulled her into a tight hug. He snuggled his face into her hair and inhaled deeply as he was craving her scent.
Finally, Xiang Ling was able to find her voice and quickly whispered, "Ah Yuan, we are in public. Everyone's watching."
