Chapter 61 Is it to rest for a while, or...?

Chen Ci's breath seemed to penetrate the thin fabric and land directly on Zhou Shilin's heart, making his heart burn.

He was only stunned for a moment before reaching out to put his arm around Chen Ci's waist, and with his other hand he took the perfume from her and sprayed a little on the side of her neck.

The fragrance immediately filled her nostrils. Zhou Shilin leaned forward slightly and sniffed her neck: "It's a very sweet scent, but it suits you better."

As he spoke, he pulled down the collar of Chenci's shirt, revealing a small section of her shoulder, and then lowered his head to kiss her shoulder.

The kiss was light, yet it brushed against Chen Ci's heart like a feather. She closed her eyes and couldn't help but hug him tightly, feeling the alluring feather travel from her shoulder to her neck, finally landing on the corner of her lips.

Shen Ci turned her head and kissed Zhou Shilin's lips. Zhou Shilin took the opportunity to hold the back of her head, making the kiss deeper and more lingering. The perfume had fallen to the ground at some point, making a crisp fragrance, but no one paid any attention. Zhou Shilin's hands, which were around Shen Ci's waist, gently caressed her back, his fingertips brushing against her soft fabric, with a soothing force and a long-suppressed desire.

Shen Ci's body went limp uncontrollably, and she leaned against Zhou Shilin's chest, clearly feeling his broad chest that easily enveloped her.

"I've said it before, things shouldn't happen more than three times." Zhou Shilin's fingertips were twirling Shen Ci's freshly dried hair, and his voice, noticeably lower and hoarseer than usual, fell behind Shen Ci's ear.

Chen Ci was breathing heavily, as if she wanted to take back the air that Zhou Shilin had taken away from her earlier, but Zhou Shilin didn't give her much time to catch her breath. He picked Chen Ci up from the ground and carried her back to his bedroom.

This was Chen Ci's second time visiting Zhou Shilin's house, but her first time entering his bedroom—even after washing her hair, she specifically chose the bathroom in the side bedroom.

Lying on the soft bed in Zhou Shilin's master bedroom, she admitted that she had been somewhat faking it just now.

Zhou Shilin knelt by the bed, looked down at her, and reached out to tidy the messy hair on her face—then took out a condom from the bedside table drawer.

Not just one, but several.

Chen Ci: "..."

No, she was starting to regret it.

"Why do you have so many of these things in your house??"

Zhou Shilin turned his head to look at her: "This was specially prepared for you."

"..." Thank you so much!

"Didn't you want to see me naked just now?" Zhou Shilin knelt down beside her and took off his shirt. "Watching it in a video is so boring, isn't it more exciting to see it now?"

Chen Ci: "..."

Putting everything else aside, Zhou Shilin's physique is truly amazing. He is slightly hunched over, like a lurking cheetah, every line of his body exuding tension. His eight-pack abs are particularly impressive, even more beautiful and sexy than the ones Chen Ci usually admires online.

Chen Ci felt that she could do it again.

She raised her hand and touched Zhou Shilin's abs, feeling the texture and temperature beneath her hand.

“You can be bolder.” Zhou Shilin took her hand and guided her to stroke his abs, then lower and lower until they reached the edge of his waistband.

...It would be impolite to go any further.

She involuntarily coughed lightly, and then, as Zhou Shilin had instructed, she took a bold step.

Zhou Shilin immediately let out a muffled groan, and his breathing became even heavier than before. Chen Ci's actions were bolder, but she didn't dare to look at him at all.

Then Zhou Shilin leaned down and kissed her lips even more fiercely than before.

Only the sounds of their intertwined breaths and heartbeats, along with the occasional soft moan, filled the room. A deep love permeated the air. Zhou Shilin's movements weren't particularly gentle, but it was the result of his best efforts to restrain himself. Chen Ci's fingers ran through his hair, feeling his warmth and heartbeat, and everything they gave each other in this moment.

After an unknown amount of time, the noise in the room gradually subsided. It was completely dark outside, and the moonlight from outside shone through the gaps in the curtains, casting dappled shadows on the floor like scattered silver.

Zhou Shilin's chest pressed against Shen Ci's back, his hands still tightly clasped around hers. He gently kissed Shen Ci's back, his voice carrying a hint of sexiness he rarely displayed: "Tired?"

Chen Ci: "..."

What's the meaning?

Zhou Shilin quickly answered her: "Do you want to rest for a while, or do it again?"

"..." Before today, Chen Ci always thought she was in good physical condition.

After all, fighting is also physically demanding.

But now she realizes that sometimes lying in bed is more physically demanding than fighting.

"Is it already dark?" Chen Ci did not answer his question directly. She clearly remembered that when she entered this room, it was still bright, but now it was pitch black.

Isn't it said that a man's first time is quick?

Is Zhou Shilin lying? Is this actually not his first time? :)

Whether Zhou Shilin was feigning ignorance or deliberately distorting her meaning, he bit her earlobe and replied, "Yes, but the night is still long."

Chen Ci: "..."

He outlived her.

Zhou Shilin started teasing her again, and Chen Ci found that she... was completely unable to resist his teasing!

She quickly got the urge and, in accordance with Zhou Shilin, they did it again as he wished.

She was completely exhausted. Even though she felt sticky and uncomfortable all over, she felt she could manage to sleep without taking a shower.

"Drink some water, replenish your energy." Zhou Shilin got up to pour her a glass of water and brought it to her. Chen Ci lay on the bed staring at the glass of water, not wanting to be the girl who understood everything instantly anymore.

Seeing that she was unwilling to move, Zhou Shilin helped her up and let her lean against him to drink the water. Chen Ci was indeed thirsty and drank the entire glass of water.

Zhou Shilin casually placed the water glass on the bedside table and kissed her forehead: "Go take a shower before you sleep. I've already prepared hot water for you."

“…I don’t want to move, just carry me.” At this moment, Chen Ci was no longer concerned about whether or not to wear clothes, since Zhou Shilin was only wearing a small piece of cloth to cover his private parts anyway.

Zhou Shilin carried her to the bathroom as instructed and placed her in the bathtub where the water was at the perfect temperature. As soon as Chen Ci sat in the bathtub, she let out a comfortable sigh.

Zhou Shilin chimed in from the side, "The bathtub makes you so comfortable? How about we do it here next time?"

Chen Ci: "..."

Is he even human?

Now she believed Zhou Shilin was a virgin again, because he really did seem like someone who had just lost their virginity, thinking only of that. :)

"Don't soak in the bath for too long. If you haven't come out in twenty minutes, I'll come in."

"Mmm." Chen Ci leaned back in the bathtub, too lazy to even open her eyes.

"..." Zhou Shilin reminded her worriedly, "Sit tight, don't drown yourself."

"……knew."

Because he was worried about Chen Ci taking a bath alone, Zhou Shilin didn't wait twenty minutes. He came in to check on her after ten minutes to make sure she was still alive and well.

Twenty minutes later, Chen Ci came out of the bathroom after taking a bath. Her hair was wrapped in a towel, and she walked limply to the mirror and sat down: "I have no strength left, can you help me dry my hair?"

“…Okay.” Zhou Shilin walked over without complaint, took out a hairdryer and started drying her hair. Today was the day Chen Ci had washed her hair the most times in her life, and she was really afraid that if she kept washing it like this, she would go bald.

"Have you already taken a shower?" Chen Ci asked weakly, seeing that Zhou Shilin had changed into a bathrobe.

Zhou Shilin nodded, and while drying her hair, he replied, "I washed it in the other bedroom."

"oh."

"The bed sheets and blankets have also been replaced with new ones."

"..." Who asked you that?

The buzzing of the hairdryer was like a lullaby, making Chen Ci even sleepier. When Zhou Shilin was drying her hair, he had to support her head from time to time to prevent it from tilting to one side.

"Alright, go to bed." After drying Chen Ci's hair, Zhou Shilin turned off the hairdryer and carried Chen Ci directly to the bed.

As soon as Chen Ci touched the pillow, she fell asleep immediately, leaving Zhou Shilin speechless for three seconds.

She's three years younger than him, so her sleep is definitely better.

He tidied up the bathroom, walked to the bedside, lifted the covers, and lay down next to Shen Ci.

Chen Ci didn't wake up until eleven o'clock the next day. It was already bright outside, and sunlight streamed through the gaps in the curtains, casting a golden line on the quilt.

The unfamiliar surroundings made her pause for a few seconds before she realized that this was Zhou Shilin's home.

Yesterday's memories flooded back like a tidal wave, and Chen Ci was momentarily at a loss as to how to face Zhou Shilin.

Only then did Chen Ci realize that Zhou Shilin was not in the room.

She habitually reached out and touched the bedside table, and to her surprise, she actually found her phone.

She was pretty sure she hadn't brought her phone into the room yesterday, so the only possibility was that Zhou Shilin had put it on her bedside table today.

That's quite thoughtful.

Chen Ci unlocked her phone and saw a message from Zhou Shilin.

Zhou Shilin: I'm going to the company. I'll bring lunch back. If you're hungry, there are some snacks in the kitchen that you can have a bite to eat.

Chen Ci: "..."

She couldn't understand how Zhou Shilin could come back from his business trip yesterday, not be jet-lagged, cook hot pot with her, and then have sex with her, and then still be able to go to work today?

Is this what high-energy people are like?

Chen Ci: I'm awake. How long until you're back?

Zhou Shilin: I woke up right on time and was already in the elevator.

Zhou Shilin: You can get up and wash up now, and get ready for lunch.

Chenci: Yay!

Thinking about lunch gave Chen Ci the motivation to get up. After she finished washing up, Zhou Shilin walked into the bedroom, carrying a bag in his hand.

"What is this?" Chen Ci asked him curiously.

Zhou Shilin said, "The underwear you want."

Chen Ci: "..."

Since Zhou Shilin didn't bring back any underwear from abroad, Chen Ci was still wearing yesterday's clothes. She hadn't expected Zhou Shilin to bring her not only lunch but also these things.

"...Wait a minute, you didn't ask Assistant Tian to buy it for you, did you?"

“…No.” Zhou Shilin handed her the things in his hand. “Secretary Liu bought them for me.”

Chen Ci: "..."

Doesn't that mean the whole company knows what they did?

"Mr. Zhou, if you send Secretary Liu to buy it, isn't that the same as telling them what we did last night?"

Zhou Shilin looked at her: "Just because this didn't happen, does that mean people will assume we don't do these things?"

Chen Ci: "..."

sophistry!

She grabbed her things and stormed off to the bathroom to change.

When Chen Ci changed her clothes and walked into the dining room, Zhou Shilin had already neatly laid out the lunch she had brought back on the table. Chen Ci walked over and sat down, looking at the table full of food, and her mouth watered: "Mr. Zhou bought so much? There's no way the two of us can finish it all."

Zhou Shilin said, "You used up a lot of energy last night, eat more to replenish yourself."

Chen Ci: "..."

If we're talking about energy expenditure, Zhou Shilin should be the one who's expending more energy, so why does he look so energetic right now?

He's not some kind of demon who specializes in draining people's life force, is he? :)

"Oh, right, I also bought some medicine for you." Zhou Shilin paused for a moment, a slightly unnatural look on his face. "Although I tried my best to restrain myself last night, I'm quite strong, and I'm not sure if I hurt you. If you feel uncomfortable anywhere, you can see if there's any medicine you can use."

"..." Although it's very thoughtful, "did you also ask Secretary Liu to buy the medicine?"

Chen Ci put down her chopsticks and looked at him with a smile.

Zhou Shilin said, "No, I consulted a professional doctor, and she prescribed the medicine for me."

Chen Ci: "..."

Great, now another doctor knows.

Seeing her expression, Zhou Shilin knew what she was thinking, so he comforted her, saying, "You don't need to care too much about what other people think. We are all adults and have sex lives."
