Raising her eyebrows, Laura informed Forrest, "I want to have seafood hotpot for dinner tonight."

Forrest glanced up and smiled affectionately.

"Sure."

Laura smiled.

"You're so good to me."

"If you ask for my life, I would gladly give it to you," he said.

Laura found his remark amusing and jokingly replied, "Then give me your life!"

“Come and claim it." He reached out to her, saying, “Come here.”

Laura complied and approached him.

As she looked at his broad palm, she hesitated but reluctantly placed her hand in his.

Forrest held her hand and gently pulled her into his embrace. Laura resisted inwardly and couldn't help but attempt to pull away.

However, Forrest held her tighter, calling her name softly.

"Laura."

Lowering her head, Laura asked, "What are you doing?"

"I want to kiss you," Forrest whispered, leaning closer until their cheeks were touching.

Laura pressed her Lips together and pleaded, "Please stop..."

Without allowing her to finish her sentence, Forrest kissed her.

He held her tightly, while Laura felt repulsed and unable to refuse him. All she could do was feign shyness and protest, "Please don't do this..."

Forrest caressed her face and reasoned, "We are a couple. I'm allowed to kiss you, right?"

“I seem to have forgotten that fact," Laura replied dryly.
