Chapter 74 The First Time, Without Knowing Your Limits
The two returned to their dormitory and sorted the groceries they had bought, putting them into the refrigerator.
After washing up, the two of them sat on opposite ends of the sofa, each holding a book and reading, just like any other evening.
Tonight, the pages of the book remained unturned for a long time, and the air was filled with a tension that seemed to be drawn taut like a bowstring drawn taut with desire.
After a while, Huo Nanchen closed the medical journal in his hand and placed it on the coffee table.
He turned his head, his dark, deep eyes falling on Lin Xili's lowered profile. "Are you ready?"
Lin Xili looked up and met the burning passion in his eyes, then looked away and asked softly, "Um, did you read the instructions for that condom?"
Huo Nanchen: "..."
He closed the book in Lin Xili's hand and placed it on the coffee table next to his own book.
After doing all this, the man moved closer to her, reached out and pulled her into his arms, his arms encircling her shoulders with a firm yet gentle touch.
Lin Xili obediently leaned into his arms, smelling the ambergris scent on him, and looked up at him.
Huo Nanchen lowered his head and kissed her forehead, then slowly moved down to kiss her trembling eyelids and the tip of her delicate nose.
Finally, his lips covered hers, no longer as eager as the first time.
His lips gently brushed against hers, and soon their breaths mingled and blended.
Lin Xili subconsciously closed her eyes, savoring this belated intimacy that belonged to the couple.
She could feel his arms tightening around her slightly, and she could also feel the slight trembling of his lips.
It turns out he was nervous too.
This discovery greatly alleviated her shyness and helplessness.
She stepped back slightly, opened her eyes, and looked at the face that was flushed with emotion yet restrained, and couldn't help but speak softly.
“You are a doctor, and I am a forensic doctor. Theoretically speaking, we are very familiar with the structure of the human body.”
"I shouldn't be nervous."
Huo Nanchen chuckled softly, his fingertips gently tracing her glistening lips, his voice low and deep, almost like a whisper.
"After all, we are alive."
Theory is cold, and diagrams are two-dimensional.
The woman in his arms was warm and soft, a living person who would tremble at his touch and gaze at him with loving eyes.
This intimacy, born of love and longing, transcends the scope of any anatomical knowledge.
All theoretical knowledge is pale in comparison; only genuine emotions and physical resonance between people are the sole determinant.
Her gaze passed over his shoulder and landed on the glass bottle on the coffee table, holding the bouquet of blue snowflakes he had just arranged for her that evening.
She then looked out the window at the thriving blue plumbago on the balcony.
Blue plumbago: Resilient and brave!
She drew strength from it.
No more hesitation, no more waiting.
Lin Xili tilted her head back and kissed his lips again.
Her arms encircled his neck, responding to him awkwardly yet firmly, guiding him.
This proactive kiss, like a final signal, completely shattered Huo Nanchen's restraint.
He let out a suppressed groan, and the bestiality born from his male hormones finally erupted.
He suddenly tightened his arms, pulling her deeper into his embrace, and took the initiative, returning her kiss deeply.
The kiss became urgent and deep, filled with a volcanic eruption of passion that stole her breath and ignited the blood in both of their bodies.
The theoretical barriers were completely broken down, leaving only the most primal and genuine emotions and desires to dominate everything.
He picked her up, carried her to the bedroom, and placed her on the bed.
Looking at her nestled in the blankets, her lips flushed red, Huo Nanchen felt a surge of tenderness mixed with possessiveness welling up inside him.
As he leaned down and covered her, he held her waist with one hand, tightly encircling Lin Xili in his arms.
His thin lips landed on hers again, and as they lingered and caressed each other, his fingertips slowly explored the collar of her shirt.
Lin Xili specially wore a white shirt nightgown tonight.
With a flick of his finger, the man unbuttoned the first button. As the fabric slipped down, his thin lips traveled down his jawline, landing on the side of her neck with a gentle bite and a slow kiss. The tingling sensation made Lin Xili moan softly.
Next, her fingertips moved to the second button, and the moment she unbuttoned it, the gap was perfectly positioned between her collarbone and the upper edge of her chest, revealing her fair, soft, and incredibly perfect collarbone line, an extremely alluring sight.
Huo Nanchen lowered his head, his thin lips landing on the hollow of her collarbone, causing Lin Xili to tremble slightly, her hands instinctively gripping the hem of his clothes tightly.
The man's hand slipped under the crevice, feeling the softness of that patch of skin.
Now, the two of them were completely out of breath, and their clothes were eventually removed and fell to the floor under the bed.
During the process of the two bodies overlapping.
At this moment, they are each other's most devout explorers and possessors of each other's passion.
As the last wave swept past, the sea returned to calm.
Lin Xili slumped in Huo Nanchen's arms, her cheek pressed against his sweaty chest, her slender hand resting limply on his stomach. It was truly a natural progression for them to consummate their relationship.
Huo Nanchen held her slender, soft waist tightly with one hand, and played with a strand of her hair with the other to calm his breathing.
A moment later, Huo Nanchen moved and released his arms from her.
He propped himself up, and by the light streaming in from the window, looked at her in his arms, her cheeks flushed and her eyelashes lightly closed. His voice was hoarse with apology.
"You might not be very gentle the first time, so let me help you apply the medicine."
"???"
Lin Xili's weariness vanished instantly at those words, "You...where did you get the medicine?"
Do I need to prepare medication in advance for this kind of thing?
Huo Nanchen replied as he opened the drawer, "I bought it while I was at the hospital today."
Lin Xili: "..."
I'm completely speechless.
This man can handle the aftercare from a sexual encounter like he's preparing for surgery.
She pulled the blanket up to cover half her face and mumbled a refusal: "No...no need, I'm fine!"
In a conscious state, that would be utterly shameful.
Huo Nanchen remained silent for a moment, seemingly judging that she was indeed alright, before lying down again, pulling her into his arms once more, and whispering, "Then go to sleep."
A moment later, Huo Nanchen's voice rang out again, broken and intermittent, "I...I'll...I'll put the medicine on you!"
"..."
Lin Xili was completely wide awake now; this man's meticulousness was truly frightening.
She reached out her hand...
Before she could refuse, Huo Nanchen had already taken out the ointment from the bedside table drawer, and was waiting for her reply, hesitant to speak.
Lin Xili gritted her teeth, pulled back the covers, and agreed.
Huo Nanchen quickly opened the ointment box. She quickly pulled the blanket over her face, but couldn't help but look away.
The lights were off, so the man's expression was obscured. He was carefully applying the ointment to her face with his head down, accompanied by increasingly heavy breathing.
Seeing this, Lin Xili blushed even more and quickly covered her head with the blanket.
After applying the medicine, Huo Nanchen took a deep breath, picked up the shirt dress from the floor and helped her put it on before lying down and pulling her into his arms. "It's alright, it's okay now, go to sleep!"
Lin Xili buried her face in his chest shyly. The man's heart was pounding, and he could feel the strange sensation coming from her body.
That's true, it would be strange if there was no reaction after applying the medicine like that.
Lin Xili said in a muffled voice, "You, you, you, your heart is beating fast, your breathing is heavy, and there... how about we..."
Huo Nanchen: "..."
He didn't do anything, but simply held her tighter. "It's too late. Indulging in sex will affect your energy at work the next day."
Lin Xili: "..."
Lin Xili couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Our Dr. Huo is truly a Ninja Turtle!"
Huo Nanchen kissed her forehead, his voice unusually embarrassed, "Our work requires a high degree of concentration!"
Lin Xili replied earnestly, like an obedient student, "Yes, Dr. Huo!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Nanchen's ears turned completely red, thankfully it couldn't be seen in the dark, and his voice was terribly hoarse, "Mmm, go to sleep!"
The next morning, when Lin Xili woke up, although her body was still sore from the afterglow, she felt as if she had been reborn and was full of energy.
Huo Nanchen had prepared a simple breakfast as usual: steamed baby pumpkin, toast, and milk.
While she was washing up, Huo Nanchen turned around and went to make the bed.
When his gaze fell upon the burning mark on the bed sheet, his neck flushed red, all the way to his ears.
He quickly removed the sheets and stuffed them into the washing machine, then put on new sheets, tidied the bed, and left the bedroom with a normal expression.
At the dining table, the two sat quietly eating breakfast, but the atmosphere today was different from usual.
When their eyes met from time to time, Lin Xili couldn't help but lower her head shyly, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up.
After breakfast, they met at the door without prior arrangement.
Huo Nanchen's hand naturally took hers, his palm warm, their fingers intertwined.
The elevator slowly descended to the first floor. Lin Xili gently withdrew her hand and said, "I'm leaving."
"Mm," Huo Nanchen replied.
She walked to the Justice Bureau, while he went to the underground parking garage to drive to the hospital.
Their backs turned away in different directions, but the corners of their mouths curved in the same way—an irrepressible, gentle smile belonging to the early morning.
