Chapter 33: The Thirty-Third Day - Bai Jiangxin's Body

I used to think that the break between classes was too short, as if the bell rang before I had a chance to do anything. But now, I've never felt that those ten minutes or so could be so long.

Two minutes of hellish death finally broke Bai Jiangxin's silence.

Although he didn't know what she was embarrassed about, he knew that staying silent like this wouldn't work. He cleared his throat and resumed his usual mechanical and indifferent tone, asking her, "What question?"

Xiang Di breathed a sigh of relief and quickly delivered the chemistry exam paper.

"...This question."

Fortunately, there was something to distract him. Bai Jiangxin glanced at the question and said, "Use the difference method to calculate."

Xiang Di: "Huh?"

She wasn't quite at the level of having a complete grasp of chemistry yet, so Bai Jiangxin picked up his pen and started explaining it to her from the beginning: "Let the mass of magnesium oxide be x, and it's heated simultaneously with magnesium carbonate..."

"So the answer is A." Bai Jiangxin looked at her. "Do you understand?"

Xiang Di looked down at the calculation steps he had drawn up for himself on the draft paper and blinked slowly.

How did you understand it so easily? It hasn't even been a minute.

She hadn't had enough of his clear, deep voice when he explained problems, nor had she seen enough of his beautiful, slender fingers confidently calculating on the draft paper, and she hadn't had enough of sitting next to him.

Because after asking this question, she was going to go back to her seat.

For the first time, Xiang Di felt regret that she was actually so smart.

But if she pretended not to understand, she was afraid Bai Jiangxin would think she was stupid, so she could only honestly say, "I understood."

Bai Jiangxin nodded and handed the test paper back to her.

Xiang Di took the exam paper and prepared to leave.

The social crisis that just happened has been cleverly resolved. At this point, all we need to do is pretend that nothing happened.

but……

Xiang Di gritted his teeth and decided to explain again.

I don't expect my crush to come true, but I must at least make a good impression on him during these last few months.

Even years later, even if it's just for a second, if Bai Jiangxin unintentionally recalls his high school days, in his memory she should at least be a positive figure, not a female hooligan who would send him suggestive videos.

Whether he cares or not, she cares a lot. People who have crushes are just dramatic, especially concerned about their image in the eyes of their crush. What can you do about it?

Xiang Di spoke in a tone that suggested he was ready to die.

"Um, you just mentioned abs..." she said with difficulty, "Did I send you some weird videos too?"

Bai Jiangxin raised an eyebrow and asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"

Xiang Di quickly explained that if he received a suggestive video from a male internet celebrity, it wasn't sent by her; it was sent as a prank by her brother using her phone yesterday.

But she didn't say that the male internet celebrity was her brother. It was too embarrassing for her to have her own brother who was just a frivolous internet celebrity. She couldn't bear the shame.

"I'm speechless. My brother deleted my chat history, so I had no idea. And he even sent that video to Zhou Linxiao." Xiang Di wanted to cover her face as she said this. "I really suspect that he sent that video to all the boys in my contact list."

Xiang Di spoke with absolute certainty, almost as if she were raising her hand to swear to Bai Jiangxin: "You have to believe me, that video was definitely not sent to you by me personally."

Looking at her anxious explanation, it seemed that if he didn't believe her, she would have to die to prove her innocence.

Bai Jiangxin believed her, of course; he knew she didn't have the guts.

Now that the misunderstanding has been cleared up and she hasn't harassed him, the matter should be over.

But in Bai Jiangxin's heart, there was still a strange feeling of anger stuck in his throat.

His eyes were calm, and his voice was flat: "Since you didn't send that message."

The little chick pecks at the rice: "Mmm-hmm."

"Then why were you looking at Zhou Linxiao's abs?" After a pause, Bai Jiangxin pursed his lips imperceptibly. "And you even touched them?"

Xiang Di whispered, "Because he said he could let me see it, so I..."

"So you saw it, he said you could touch it, and you touched it." Bai Jiangxin stared at her with his dark eyes and asked, "He grew up abroad, so it doesn't matter to him. Are you one of them?"

Xiang Di scratched her face, feeling like she was being lectured by a conservative elder. Besides, she hadn't actually touched him; hadn't he interrupted her?

“This has nothing to do with whether it’s domestic or foreign,” she said. “It’s just touching my abs.”

Zhou Linxiao said that people who work out generally welcome others to admire their muscles, as it makes them feel proud.

Bai Jiangxin suddenly chuckled: "But? You mean if he asked you to touch other places today, you would touch them too?"

Xiang Di tilted her head: "Other places? Where?"

Bai Jiangxin: "..."

She was quite naive at that time.

They were talking past each other. He turned his head away: "Fine, if you think it's okay, then it's okay."

Xiang Di felt that Bai Jiangxin's thinking was a bit too conservative, but she could understand it. After all, he was a flower on a high mountain, something that could only be admired but not reached. Of course, he wouldn't let anyone touch him easily. If everyone could pick him, he wouldn't be a flower on a high mountain.

She kindly explained, "Actually, I thought the same as you before, that it's not good to touch other people's muscles casually. But Zhou Linxiao told me that it's very common in their gym. Sigh, we've never been to the gym or specifically trained any muscles, so it's normal that we don't know."

Bai Jiangxin: "Who said I haven't been there?"

Xiang Di: "Oh? You've been there?"

Bai Jiangxin remained silent, neither confirming nor denying.

He truly deserves to be called a top student. The test papers he receives every day are piled up like mountains, and he can't even finish writing them all, yet he still has time to go to the gym.

No wonder his waist is so thin; you can feel its firm strength even through his clothes. It turns out that besides being naturally thin, he has also worked out.

Xiang Di asked curiously yet cautiously, "...So, do you have abs too?"

Bai Jiangxin raised one eyebrow, glanced at her lightly, and remained noncommittal once again.

He gestured towards the flute.

I really want to see it, I really want to touch it.

But he's not Zhou Linxiao, he definitely wouldn't show it to her, much less let her touch it.

But she really, really wanted to see it, a hundred times, a thousand times more than Zhou Linxiao. Even if she didn't get to see his abs, she would be satisfied if he just rolled up his sleeves and let her see the muscles on his arms.

The summer uniforms at No. 14 Middle School also have sleeves. Xiang Di used to only be able to see a patch of skin on Bai Jiangxin's arm. Moreover, he was very conservative; even in the hottest summer, he rarely unbuttoned the collar of his uniform.

Although abstinence is also a form of sexual tension, the more he kept it to himself and didn't let anyone see it, the more she craved it, even dreaming about it.

She had been longing for a physical body for three years. If she could finally see it in reality, she wouldn't have to only imagine it in her mind every time.

Even though she secretly longed for it, Xiang Di managed to suppress the urge. She was practically drooling with desire, but could only say, "Haha, that's great."

Just as they were wondering how to continue the conversation, Wang Sichen returned and, seeing Xiang Di sitting in his seat, exclaimed in surprise.

Xiang Di immediately stood up and returned the seat to Wang Sichen.

Wang Sichen said, "It's okay, please sit down. I'm just grabbing something."

"No, no, I just came to ask a question, and I've already asked it."

Back in his seat, Xiang Di buried his face in his arms in frustration.

Xiang Di, why are you so cowardly and so useless?

You deserve it if you have a crush on him for three years and make no progress at all.

She slumped onto her desk, inwardly berating herself, completely unaware that Bai Jiangxin, who was standing between her and someone else, had a slightly somber expression and a tight, emotionless line at the corner of his mouth, also berating her.

I don't know what she's afraid of; he's already hinted at it quite clearly.

Given his past aloof and distant attitude, this wasn't just a hint; it was a direct statement to her.

She said it's normal to touch muscles at the gym, and he explicitly told her that he had been to the gym and that he had muscles too.

Bai Jiangxin is different from Zhou Linxiao. He doesn't like being touched, let alone showing off like a peacock.

Telling Xiang Di that he would go to the gym was the biggest concession he could make to maintain his pride; it was impossible for him to be like Zhou Linxiao.

Besides, she liked him first, so isn't it only right that she take the initiative?

When it comes to her favorite part—fantasizing—she doesn't hold back at all, indulging in whatever she feels good. But when it comes to reality, she becomes incredibly timid.

If only she had been a little braver...

Bai Jiangxin's feelings were complicated.

That useless groundhog, what kind of relationship do you expect to develop with him?

Judging from her behavior, one day she'll be dead and still there, wallowing in unrequited love.

-

When Xiang Di returned home from evening self-study that night, he got into a fight with Xiang Sheng.

It was more like a one-sided beating of Xiang Sheng than a fight. After sending messages to her two male classmates yesterday, Xiang Sheng was prepared to be beaten and never thought of fighting back.

The siblings' physiques were too different, and Xiang Sheng was a fitness enthusiast. If he exerted any effort, Xiang Di's small arms and legs would be no match for him.

The less the person being hit resists, the more it will arouse the violent factors in the abuser. Xiang Sheng was stiff all over. She thought it was too much trouble to hit him with her hands, so she directly picked up a pillow and hit him on the head.

Finally, Xiang Di got tired of hitting him, threw down the cushion, stood by the sofa, and spat at him hard.

"Do you admit defeat? Will you dare to use my phone to send random messages again next time?"

Xiang Sheng lay on the sofa, a smirk playing on his lips, and said smugly, "You don't really think that with your weak punching skills, you can make your brother submit, do you?"

Xiang Di pretended to hit him again, but Xiang Sheng used his waist to spring up from the sofa and accurately grabbed her wrist.

Xiang Di struggled twice but couldn't break free at all, and she immediately became anxious: "What are you doing!"

Since Xiang Sheng entered junior high school, his parents taught him that there is a difference between boys and girls when he and his sister are together. Even though they are siblings, they should be careful about their relationship. So they never fought again. At most, they would just have a little argument.

Xiang Di never expected that after so many years, her brother's strength had become so great. Just by grabbing her wrist, he was completely unable to move.

Seeing Xiang Di struggling helplessly in his hands, Xiang Sheng lazily raised his eyebrows and said smugly, "Let go. If you can, I'll give you a thousand yuan."

Xiang Di's hand was about to dislocate, but Xiang Sheng still held her wrist firmly, and judging from the relaxed expression on his face, he probably didn't even use half of his strength.

Finally, Xiang Di gave up, looking at him with a mixture of dejection and anger.

Xiang Sheng regained his masculine dignity from his sister and finally let her go.

"See? That's how big the power gap is between men and women, so never think you can beat a man."

He reached out and tapped her forehead, saying slowly and deliberately, "You overconfident little brat."

Xiang Di had fully realized that the reason she was able to gain the upper hand and pin him down was entirely because Xiang Sheng was letting her win.

She suddenly asked quietly, "Are all the people who work out this strong?"

"What else? You think those dumbbells are made of foam?" Xiang Sheng said. "After you finish your college entrance exam, I'll take you for a stroll in our gym. Let me tell you, with your small frame, you're not even as heavy as the weights we usually lift."

Xiang Sheng was initially dismissive, but then noticed that Xiang Di didn't retort. Instead, she gripped her slightly reddened wrist and suddenly fell into deep thought.

He panicked for a moment. Had he really not controlled his strength well and hurt her?

"How about I put some safflower oil on your wrist?" Xiang Sheng sighed. "You're too fragile. I didn't even use much force, and your wrist is already this red."

It feels like his parents didn't give him a sister, but rather a chick.

Xiang Di rolled her eyes at her brother, thinking to herself, "What do you know? I have a delicate and holy body. If I were put in any erotic novel, the male lead would get so excited that he would have a three-day, three-night battle with me."

Xiang Di snorted, ignored her brother, picked up her schoolbag, went into her room, and closed the door behind her.

Back in her room, Xiang Di lay down on the bed, raised her wrist, and stared at the red handprint left on it.

If this were Bai Jiangxin's handprint, she would definitely take a picture of it and keep it forever.

She only wanted to be thoroughly shackled by Bai Jiangxin.

And she also learned something new about him today: he goes to the gym too.

She had already accepted that Bai Jiangxin might have been busy studying for the past three years and didn't have much muscle, so she could only imagine him having a muscular physique. However, upon learning that he also went to the gym today, Xiang Di suddenly found him even more charming.

She could only tell that Bai Jiangxin had a good body proportion, with a slim waist, long legs, broad shoulders, and a tall stature. Now, when she thought that beneath that seemingly aloof and noble top student's appearance, there was actually a body full of power, a certain little impulse in her lower abdomen seemed to break through the soil again, turning into a gurgling stream.

She really wanted to sit on his lap and, like a painter sketching the lines of a human body, touch every part of his body, bit by bit.

She would use her right index finger to slide down his hairline across his forehead, then to the bridge of his high nose, and finally to his soft, pale pink lips that were always pressed into a thin line with a cold expression.

She brushed her fingers across his lips, then from the tip of his chin to the protruding spot on his Adam's apple. She rubbed and rubbed that sexy mole on his Adam's apple until it turned red and the area around it turned red, until she forced out a muffled groan from him.

His entire body must be covered with a perfectly thin layer of skin, with bluish veins beneath his fair skin, and the blood of a young man flowing beneath. He is handsome and aloof, yet full of a certain wild tension.

She wanted to touch his strong arms, his slightly bulging chest muscles, and to continuously dab and outline his abdominal muscles and V-line, drawing exquisite lines with her own hands.

Xiang Di bit her lip and secretly squeezed her legs together, but touching him like that would definitely irritate him.

She was determined to provoke him. Only by provoking him could she experience the next, more intense step.

He would definitely not be able to stand it, and then the world would spin around her as a hand firmly grabbed her wrist and twisted it behind her head.

She looked up and saw that he was no longer the serious and aloof top student he had been during the day. His dark eyes were filled with desire, and his thin Adam's apple bobbed incessantly on his neck.

He asked her in a hoarse voice, "Have you touched enough?"

She said coquettishly, "No, let me touch it again."

Bai Jiangxin was not the kind of person who would let her manipulate him. She tried to break free a few times, but couldn't. He patted her face from above and said condescendingly, "It's my turn now."

After speaking, he lowered his body, and the academic genius who was usually as aloof as the moon in the sky transformed into a nursing child who needed milk, sucking and swallowing vigorously.

His hard abs pressed against her soft lower abdomen, and the coarse, curly hair below his abs scratched her, causing both pain and itchiness. He held up a dumbbell with great strength, easily lifting her frail waist.

Xiang Di, who was thoroughly enjoying the fantasy, suddenly started pounding the bed in excitement.

I hadn't even pounded twice when I suddenly felt a downward pull in my lower abdomen.

No way, it's done so quickly today?

She ran out of the room and rushed to the bathroom, only to find that she had started her period.

Xiang Di took out her phone and checked the app she used to track her period; it had started two days earlier than usual.

My goodness, I just imagined it, and my period came early. Bai Jiangxin's potency is just too strong!

It turns out that Bai Jiangxin not only relieves her stress, but also has the effect of inducing menstruation.

Xiang Di sighed, already sensing that the next week was going to be tough.

-

On the first day of her period, Xiang Di felt fine. She just had lower back pain and felt weak, especially in her legs, which made it hard to walk.

The second day is usually the most difficult for Xiang Di.

Xiang Di barely managed to finish her morning classes, and by lunchtime, she didn't even have the energy to go to the cafeteria. Fortunately, Liang Qianqian knew she had menstrual cramps and told her to rest in the classroom while she went to the convenience store to buy her lunch.

With no other option, Liang Qianqian had to find other girls to go to the cafeteria with.

While looking for a seat after getting her food, she ran into Ye Minjia and Bai Jiangxin. Ye Minjia noticed that she was with other girls today and asked curiously, "Did you and Xiang Di have a fight?"

Liang Qianqian rolled her eyes at him: "You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth."

Ye Minjia: "Then why weren't you with Xiang Di today?"

Liang Qianqian: "She wasn't feeling well and was resting in the classroom."

"Huh? What's wrong with her?" Ye Minjia asked. "Is she sick?"

Although menstruation is a normal physiological phenomenon and there is no need to feel ashamed, Liang Qianqian still felt that it was better not to tell her boyfriend about her period.

Especially Ye Minjia, who has a sharp tongue. Last week, when Ye Minjia was menstruating, she accidentally saw a sanitary napkin in her desk. This damn class monitor actually exclaimed, "Holy crap, you're actually a girl?"

Liang Qianqian retorted irritably, "What she does is none of your business. You're not her father."

"I'm her class monitor. If I don't care about her, who will?" Ye Minjia glanced at her sideways. "But you, what kind of plastic best friend are you? She's not feeling well, and instead of being in the classroom with her, you have the leisure to come to the cafeteria to eat. You're such a cold-hearted person."

Just as Liang Qianqian was about to retort, the girl with her waved to her from a distance: "Qianqian, there are seats here."

Liang Qianqian kicked Ye Minjia in anger, but ignored him and left.

Ye Minjia patted her trouser leg, looked in the direction Liang Qianqian left, and clicked her tongue twice: "Plastic best friends."

Then he turned to Bai Jiangxin and said, "It's not as good as the two of us, is it... Hey, you're not eating?"

Bai Jiangxin hummed in agreement and said, "The food isn't very good today."

"I think it tastes pretty good."

Moreover, the food in the cafeteria doesn't always taste the same. It's true that the young master's stomach is like the weather, changing in an instant. Seeing that he was about to leave, Ye Minjia quickly sped up her eating: "Wait for me, I'll be finished soon."

"The teacher wants to talk to me," Bai Jiangxin said. "Eat slowly, don't choke."

Even if someone had a huge problem in their mind, they wouldn't dare to ask him for a single word.

Let's go take a look.

-

There weren't many people in the classroom at noon. Xiang Di lay on her desk, feeling much better after resting for a while, but her stomach still hurt a little and she was also a bit hungry.

Suddenly, someone gently tapped on her desk. Thinking it was Qianqian returning, she immediately reached out, grabbed the person's school uniform, and then slowly raised her head, looking pitifully at the zipper of the uniform, and said:

"I knew you loved me and couldn't bear to see me suffer alone in the classroom, so you finished eating and came back so quickly."

There was no reaction, so she tilted her head back and blinked to make sure she wasn't seeing things.

She quickly withdrew her hand from Bai Jiangxin's school uniform, forcing an awkward smile onto her pale face: "I'm sorry, I thought it was Qianqian who came back."

Bai Jiangxin pursed his lips and asked her, "Are you sick?"

Xiang Di suddenly stammered. There was nothing shameful about menstruation. In the morning, when Zhou Linxiao saw that she was not feeling well and asked her what was wrong, she simply said that she had her period.

Zhou Linxiao looked at her with heartache and said he understood. His mother also suffered from menstrual cramps, and every time she had cramps, she would call his father and whine to him.

I really envy Zhou Linxiao's mother. When she has menstrual cramps, she can call her handsome husband and whine to him. It's a pity that her husband and she are still just classmates.

She couldn't whine to him anymore, so what was the point? Xiang Di said dejectedly, "...I guess so, my stomach hurts."

Bai Jiangxin lowered his voice: "Does it hurt a lot?"

It didn't actually hurt that much, but after hesitating for a moment, she nodded.

Her long, drooping eyelashes cast a shadow of grievance beneath her eyelids, and she weakly squeezed out a "Mmm" from her nose.

Then she pretended to be in unbearable pain and weakly collapsed onto the table.

"it hurts……"

Considering her menstrual cramps, it's not unreasonable for her to pretend in front of him and try to gain his sympathy.

Bai Jiangxin's tone was slightly somber: "Should we go to the infirmary?"

Xiang Di quickly raised her head and said, "Ah, no need, no need."

Her tone had sounded a bit too energetic, so she added, "My legs are weak and I can't walk, so I'll just rest in the classroom for a bit."

Bai Jiangxin said directly, "I'll carry you there."

Xiang Di: "..."

Bai Jiangxin: "Don't want it?"

Once they went to the infirmary, wouldn't he know that she wasn't sick at all, but just had her period?

but.

Bai Jiangxin said he would carry her on his back!

Imagine, what fool would refuse such a good thing as someone they like carrying them to the infirmary?

An idol drama plot that happens only once in eight hundred years is finally about to befall her.

Things will work themselves out; enjoy life while you can. Never mind, I'll explain to him later. Let's enjoy ourselves first!

Xiang Di whispered, "...Then, I'll trouble you."

Bai Jiangxin was very decisive; he squatted down with his back to her.

"Come on up."

Xiang Di carefully climbed onto his back, and Bai Jiangxin stood up with almost no effort.

[Hahaha, my husband's back! I can finally ride on it!]

[By rounding up, I guess I've at least tried the riding position with my husband!]

Bai Jiangxin: "..."

Listening to that energetic and heartfelt voice, and even the mood to make lewd jokes, it doesn't seem like he's sick.
