Ni Sitian threw herself onto Xu Tingchuan, their bodies pressed together without any gap.

She hurriedly tried to get up, but Xu Tingchuan's arm tightened around her and pressed her back down. Her eyes met his deep, dark pupils.

There seemed to be a power in those eyes bewitching her; she stared straight at them, motionless.

Xu Tingchuan placed his hand on the back of Ni Sitian's head, pressing her head towards himself.

Ni Sitian involuntarily closed her eyes, feeling her lips press against two warm and soft lips.

She recalled the kiss in the car and couldn't help but imitate it, slightly parting her lips to gently suck on Xu Tingchuan's lips.

Xu Tingchuan sensed her awkward movements and felt somewhat pleased, so he let her take the initiative.

Ni Sitian's brain seemed to be lacking oxygen. She was sucking on Xu Tingchuan's lips, forgetting what to do next, so she could only keep sucking on them repeatedly.

"Ni Sitian, lips aren't for sucking." Xu Tingchuan, having been sucked on for so long, was both amused and exasperated. He moved her head away; if she kept sucking, his lips would be unsightly tomorrow.

Her cheeks flushed instantly, and her dark eyes became bright and captivating, as if they had been filled with water.

Xu Tingchuan cupped her face in his hands, tilted his head back, and kissed her. His kiss was slow and gentle, as if he were carefully guiding and teaching her.

Her lips and tongue moved clumsily in response to his movements, and her hands involuntarily gripped his pajamas, tightly clutching the hem.

After a long kiss, both of them were a little out of breath, her forehead pressed against his, their breaths mingling.

The room was filled with a tender and ambiguous atmosphere.

The close contact of their bodies made Ni Sitian feel a subtle change in a certain part of him, an area that was completely unfamiliar to her, and she froze, afraid to move.

She stared blankly at Xu Tingchuan, thinking that if he were to do something to her now, she would be willing.

Perhaps they should have consummated their marriage long ago.

This is not only a spousal obligation, but also something a healthy marriage should have.

Her avoidance made the marriage seem like a game.

"Xu Tingchuan, I..."

Before she could finish speaking, Xu Tingchuan pulled her off him, quickly got out of bed, and left the room.

She looked at the closed bedroom door, pursed her lips, and murmured the unfinished words, "Let's do it."

However, Xu Tingchuan clearly did not grasp her determination, and soon the sound of water running in the bathroom could be heard.

She knew perfectly well why he was taking a shower now, having just taken a bath.

She actually wanted to tell him that he didn't need to shower, that she could give him a shower, but that was too explicit, and she just couldn't bring herself to say it.

Time ticked by, and the sound of water continued. She couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Early autumn in Yihai City isn't cold, but taking such a long shower can still make you catch a cold.

After a while, the sound of water stopped, but he didn't return. She couldn't help but call out to him, "Xu Tingchuan."

Suddenly, the bedroom door opened, and he was only wearing a bath towel, his body still radiating a chill from the water.

"Hurry up and dry yourself off, you'll catch a cold." She glanced at his strong body and then looked away, her cheeks slightly flushed.

Xu Tingchuan walked step by step to the bedside.

Ni Sitian felt his approach and thought he still couldn't resist doing something to her, so she slowly lay down and closed her eyes.

Feeling him kneeling beside her, she nervously gripped the sheets.

Although she was willing, this tension was a conditioned reflex.

"Ni Sitian, do you want to explain to me what you mean by 'giving my love to the girl'?" Xu Tingchuan gritted his teeth and spat out the last few words.

She was stunned for a moment, then opened her eyes and saw that he had already unfolded the love letter in his hand!
