Venti's POV
She really went too far this time. Just who is she to meddle in my affairs-
Huh? This feeling... Xiao?
No that's impossible. Why would he come in here? With me like this, without any self-control, Dvalin wouldn't let him in here.
But even so, even against all odds, a familiar dark green smoke appeared before my eyes.
I couldn't even think before I felt a tug on my collar.
Just what-
!!!
I felt his lips land on mine. It was sloppy, but this was definitely...
A kiss! Xiao kissed me!
Oh dear Celestia, if this is a dream, please don't wake me up!
But it wasn't a dream, it was real. I could tell by the sharp wind still surrounding us, very nearly cutting Xiao.
Oh dear, what am I gonna do with you?
With one hand I pulled him closer, further protecting him from the wild winds. With my free hand, I made a few seals suppressing the gale.
And just who promised he would stop being reckless?
It hasn't even been a week, has it?
Running off to fight an abyss herald is one thing, teleporting in next to an angry archon is another.
After a few more seconds, his lips left mine and he buried his head in my shoulder.
Oh, my dear Xiao Xiao, you'll be the death of me someday.
Xiao's POV
I did it! I can't believe I actually did it!
I should have thought more about this! What do I do now? I don't think I can look him in the eyes.
"You're going to suffocate if you stay like that for too long." A teasing voice came from above my head.
Aaah! No there's no way I'll look at him!
"Xiao Xiao, it's not like I don't like hugging you, but a lot of people are watching..."
Stupid! Stupid archon! This is all your fault! I'm embarrassed to death!
"Cough! Are you two done?"
Okay. That's it.
I got out of there right that instant. Not too far, but also not too close, just in case something would happen.
"Is everything all right now?" A voice asked.
Oh, come on!
Of all places, did I have to teleport right next to these two?
"Are you okay? Your face is red." Thoma asked in a concerned voice,
"Things should be fine, but give them a few minutes just in case." I answered the first question, avoiding the second one.
"What happened anyway? For a life-threatening problem, it was solved rather quickly."
"Thoma."
"Yes my lord?"
"Please keep quiet for a while."
I have to say, this commissioner was very sensible. Had he not told him to shut up, I would have thrown him at least a few tens of meters away.
