Chapter 38 “Your lips are very soft”…

Liang Qi held her in one hand and shone the flashlight to the side with the other, trying to avoid dazzling either of their eyes.

"Addicted?" Liang Qi was helpless with her behavior. She always took the initiative to provoke him, and then poured a basin of cold water on him after the deed was done. He almost had the words "I am not responsible" written on her forehead.

After the commotion last night, Liang Qi was absent-minded the whole day today.

Qin Yiyan had a one-on-one tutoring class today. Liang Qi couldn't resist his nagging, and since he really had nothing to do today, he accompanied him to class.

But what surprised me was that the teacher's teaching level was very high. Not only could he develop a very targeted tutoring plan for Qin Yiyan, but even he, an auditor, could learn a lot of technical things from it.

But even the slow-witted Qin Yiyan could sense his abnormality. Liang Qi felt indescribably irritated, but whenever he thought of that unclear kiss, he couldn't help but feel excited.

The day passed in a daze.

All day long, he kept picking up his phone, fearing that he hadn't seen the message from Shen Xiyu. After realizing what he was doing, he couldn't help but laugh at himself. How could he be like a monkey, having lost his mind? With Shen Xiyu's personality, how could he possibly send him a message at this time?

*

He held Shen Xiyu in his arms, "Can you stand up straight?"

"Yes." He was able to answer fluently.

Liang Qi was really at a loss for words. "Then stand up straight, open the door, and go inside to sleep."

Shen Xiyu rubbed against his arms, "I'm so tired, I can't stand straight."

The veins on Liang Qi's forehead were throbbing, and the soft girl's body was pressed tightly against him. He gritted his teeth and tried to pull away, but as soon as he used a little strength, Shen Xiyu groaned in pain, leaving him with no way out.

In the end, he had no choice but to leave it to fate and let Shen Xiyu hang on him like a kangaroo.

"Where is your house key?" Liang Qi lowered his head and asked the girl in a gentle voice.

"have no idea."

Every sentence has a response, but every sentence has no answer.

Liang Qi had no choice in the end. She refused to move, so he had to coax Shen Xiyu, let her wrap her legs around him, and carry her to his home like a child.

After closing the door, he wanted to put Shen Xiyu on the sofa first.

As soon as she touched the sofa, the girl opened her eyes immediately. She looked like an alert kitten, without any sign of drunkenness in her eyes.

"Are you not drunk?" Liang Qi half-leaned his body a distance above her.

"Of course I'm not drunk."

Without waiting for Liang Qi to say anything, Shen Xiyu leaned forward and quickly pecked him on the lips, grinning and revealing two rows of neat pearly teeth, "I know you, your lips are very soft and delicious."

…

Both of them were completely sunken into the sofa.

Shen Xiyu sat astride Liang Qi's legs. She held Liang Qi's face with both hands and rubbed his colored lips over and over again.

Liang Qi spread his hands, motionless, staring at Shen Xiyu with his bottomless eyes.

"You...why don't you move?"

Shen Xiyu was almost crying with anxiety. It was scary that Liang Qi kept looking at her like this, and he didn't give her any response at all.

She couldn't find that feeling at all. What was it? Shen Xiyu's head was dizzy and she couldn't figure it out. It was that kind of comfortable feeling. Now she felt uncomfortable, uncomfortable everywhere.

Liang Qi opened his palm, covered the back of Shen Xiyu's neck, and easily wrapped his arm around her entire neck. The scorching temperature made her dodge forward.

"What are you doing?" Shen Xiyu put his head on Liang Qi's shoulder, "Your hands are hot!"

Liang Qi didn't let her go and grabbed her neck and pulled her back.

He rubbed Shen Xiyu's neck and face back and forth, making her extremely itchy, and she couldn't pull his hands away.

"Do you know what we are doing?" Liang Qi forced her to look into his eyes. He didn't want Shen Xiyu to be like this with him just because she was drunk.

"We are kissing." Shen Xiyu was a little annoyed. He was not a fool.

Liang Qi's voice was a little hoarse, "Then do you know who I am?"

"You are Liang Qi." Shen Xiyu was tired and stopped struggling. She let him hold her neck. "I'm not stupid. I won't hug everyone I see."

…

Liang Qi exerted force suddenly and pushed her to the other side of the sofa.

Shen Xiyu fell off him, half of his body landing on the pillow, his legs still resting on Liang Qi's knees.

Before she could protest, Liang Qi pressed down on her and bit her lips skillfully.

There was still the aroma of sweet wine between her lips and teeth. Liang Qi deliberately sucked hard on a certain spot, and Shen Xiyu let go of her mouth in pain.

But Liang Qi chased her and robbed her of more breath. Shen Xiyu couldn't help but hum. Liang Qi let go of her briefly, and his nose touched Shen Xiyu's forehead, and whispered, "Don't scream."

Without giving Shen Xiyu a chance to speak, he lowered his head again.

…

Shen Xiyu's eyes were blurred by the kiss, and Liang Qi himself was not much better, the fire in his body was burning more and more fiercely.

He was only wearing a thin base shirt, and the girl kept complaining about being hot and wanted to take off her sweater.

Liang Qi grabbed her hand to prevent her from moving, "Let it warm up first."

Chen Xiyu's eyes were filled with natural tears, and his lips were shining. "Why...why? I must have a fever. I'm so hot."

Liang Qi ignored the drunk's question, put his hand on her red earlobe, and licked and bit it.

"Why are you licking my ears?" Shen Xiyu was uncomfortable with the sticky feeling. "It's so itchy."

"Then kiss me back?" Liang Qi said vaguely without getting up.

Upon hearing this, Shen Xiyu really bit Liang Qi's neck in front of her and pecked at his Adam's apple again and again.

"Why are you moving here all the time?" Shen Xiyu poked his Adam's apple with his finger.

As if she didn't care about Liang Qi's answer at all, the girl kissed him on her own.

…

Liang Qi finally brought Shen Xiyu upstairs.

He took a towel and wiped her face carefully. After the commotion, Shen Xiyu had already fallen into a deep sleep.

When the warm towel first touched her face, she frowned and tried to chase it away. When she found that she couldn't drive it away, she ignored it, put down her hand, closed her eyes and continued to sleep.

Liang Qi brushed the hair off her face aside and sat on a chair beside the bed, looking at Shen Xiyu.

The girl was still clutching the hem of Liang Qi's clothes in her hand. She looked like she was not sleeping well, with her brows furrowed.

Liang Qi was reluctant to leave. He wanted to pull Shen Xiyu's hand away, but he couldn't, and he didn't use any force. His fist just vaguely covered hers.

He sat by the bed for half the night. Shen Xiyu did not take off her sweater. Perhaps because she felt too hot, she kept kicking the quilt at night. Liang Qi reached out and tucked her in again and again until she was wrapped up like a solid dumpling. Shen Xiyu wanted to kick but had no room to stretch her legs, so she gradually calmed down.

As Shen Xiyu fell into a deep sleep, his fists gradually relaxed. Liang Qi leaned against the desk lamp, and the halo illuminated half of his face. He pushed his hair back with his big hands, revealing his full and smooth forehead, with eyebrows and eyes that were thick and thin.

Seeing that the hour hand of the alarm clock beside the bed had slowly turned to two o'clock, Liang Qi looked at Shen Xiyu who had buried her face in the quilt. Her skin color was pale, which formed a sharp contrast with her dark gray quilt.

Liang Qi turned off the desk lamp and went downstairs in the dark.

He stood outside on the balcony and couldn't help but light a cigarette. He hated it, but due to the pressure this year, he would occasionally smoke one.

I can't help but think of when I first arrived in this city last year. Liang Qi actually didn't like this humid seaside city. Things would have a rotten, damp wood smell after being left for a long time.

But now the city has changed in his eyes. Jiangcheng is the cradle of his dreams and the first time he couldn't help himself. He spent an incomparable time here, a time he had never experienced in his life before.

But how long can such days last? The night sky in winter is particularly dark. Maybe the air here is good, so even on days like this, there are still many stars.

The white smoke dissipated into the air and disappeared in an instant.

No one knows what will happen tomorrow.

*

The next day, Shen Xiyu found himself covered with a gray quilt. He silently pulled the quilt up to cover his face.

She was even a little indifferent now. Every detail of last night was still completely in her mind, and she couldn't deny it.

She blamed everyone in her heart.

Why didn't the old steward think highly of her and let her drink such a strong alcoholic beverage?

Why didn't Chen Ningzhou follow her and send her home?

Liang Qi... Liang Qi...

Forget it, in the end it’s all my fault.

Thinking too much is just psychological comfort.

Because of what happened the night before, she ignored Liang Qi for the whole day. Actually, it couldn't be said that she ignored him. She really didn't know what to say. She was indeed a little emotional at the time, not to mention that it was under such circumstances. Liang Qi was good to her, but her family affairs, especially Li Gu's affairs, were not something Liang Qi could interfere with.

She knew that Liang Qi would definitely be able to handle it, but a man like him shouldn't get involved in such matters. He should deal calmly with numbers and ideals.

Escape was not a solution. After thinking it over again, Shen Xiyu put on the slippers placed beside the bed and went downstairs carefully.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and Liang Qi had woken up long ago. At twelve o'clock noon, he came up to look at Shen Xiyu. He thought the girl was embarrassed to go down.

Who knew that her posture was exactly the same as the one she maintained when she walked last night.

"Um." As soon as Shen Xiyu came down, he saw Liang Qi wearing rimless glasses and doing the test paper. "When did you get glasses?"

"I've always been a little nearsighted." Liang Qi took off his glasses and pinched his nose, which was aching from being pressed. He hadn't been able to sleep the previous night, so he woke up in the middle of the night and quickly reviewed the Jiangcheng Comprehensive Science Exam papers from previous years. Finally, he felt a little sleepy. This morning, he got up and continued working on the questions from yesterday.

"I put it on again because I've been using my eyes a lot these past two days."

"Oh." Shen Xiyu didn't know what else she could say to Liang Qi in the current situation.

"Go wash up. There are new toothbrushes and cups prepared for you in the bathroom." Liang Qi said lightly.

When Shen Xiyu heard him say that it was specially prepared for him, he felt itchy and sour in his heart.
