The next day, Pei Xi got up very late.
She was so exhausted last night that she didn't wake up until almost noon.
She subconsciously moved her hands and feet, and apart from some soreness in her groin and lower back, she felt fine elsewhere.
Jiang Cheng remained gentle throughout.
Except when emotions run high, I sometimes lose control of my intensity.
Pei Xi recalled everything from last night, and a flush rose uncontrollably on his face.
I felt a little embarrassed, but mostly I felt...wonderful.
It turns out that whether or not you do the final step really makes a difference.
Doing this with someone you like brings pure joy. When the pleasure reaches its peak, your mind goes blank, like fireworks are going off.
Pei Xi rested his chin on his hand, a slight smile playing on his lips, and unconsciously reminisced for a moment.
In the dim light, Jiang Cheng's chest and lips were terribly hot, and his muscles were frighteningly hard.
Pei Xi subconsciously looked at the other half of the bed, which was as smooth as new. She touched the fabric there and found it was already a little cool.
Jiang Cheng had gotten up long ago, I don't know when.
Pei Xi thought that yesterday's overtime plan was completely disrupted, and he hadn't done any of the work he was supposed to do. He guessed that the man had already gone to the company.
She threw back the covers and got out of bed, intending to go out and see if he had prepared anything for her to eat.
As soon as he stepped out of the bedroom, he heard the water running from the bathroom faucet. Pei Xi was startled and walked over, where he saw a tall, hunched figure with his back bent.
He was looking down, scrubbing something under the tap.
Pei Xi walked over, saw what was in his hand, and suddenly stopped in his tracks.
A small piece of white fabric.
His eyes were slightly lowered, his long fingers were covered in foam as he washed himself very carefully, without any hint of intimacy, and he didn't even notice her approaching.
"Are you washing my underwear?" Pei Xi asked hesitantly, leaning against the doorframe.
Jiang Cheng paused, turned his head to look at him, and raised his eyebrows slightly. "Awake?"
Pei Xi nodded.
Then I looked at his hands.
She wasn't mistaken; it really was the underwear she had taken off while showering yesterday.
"It'll be washed soon." Jiang Cheng lowered his head again.
He then rinsed it several times to completely remove the foam, turned off the tap, and wringed the water out.
Then, he neatly tore open the fabric in his hand, took a clothespin, clipped it to the edge of the waistband, and hung it up.
Pei Xi watched his actions the whole time. His expression was calm and composed, as if he were doing something perfectly normal.
Pei Xi was a little shy.
After all, she had worn those underwear.
Jiang Cheng looked at her slightly pursed lips and explained with a light laugh, "I heard that you should wash your underwear as soon as you take it off, otherwise it's easy for bacteria to grow."
Pei Xi blinked. "...Oh."
She paused for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and said thank you, "Thank you."
Jiang Cheng suddenly smiled.
He seemed to want to touch her face, but then remembered that his hands had just touched cold water, so he stopped himself. He simply tidied her slightly messy hair and said as he did so, "Baby, you don't need to thank me."
"Because I'd love to."
She told him that they didn't need to apologize to each other.
He also wanted to tell her that there was no need for them to say thank you.
He was happy to do anything for her.
I am extremely happy to do so.
Upon hearing this, Pei Xi nodded and then smiled sweetly, "Okay, I understand."
Then she stepped forward, wrapped her arms around his waist, and said with a hint of coquetry, "When I woke up just now, I didn't see you in bed, so I thought you had left."
Jiang Cheng frowned slightly upon hearing this.
He seemed somewhat puzzled as to why she would think that way.
Then he chuckled softly, with a hint of helplessness, "How could I possibly leave you alone?"
The next morning, leaving the girl alone in bed and leaving her behind—how utterly despicable must one be to do that?
Pei Xi silently curled the corners of his lips and explained, "I thought your company would be very busy."
Jiang Cheng shook his head, "It's nothing, it's just work."
It's not a huge deal.
Besides, even the biggest problem isn't as important as her.
Pei Xi understood the implication in his words, hummed in response, and then hugged him even tighter.
She had to admit that the feeling of waking up to find Jiang Cheng still at home, and then snuggling into his arms and hugging him, was really, really good.
Perhaps because of the more intimate behavior, she inexplicably became more inclined to be close to him, to touch his skin to skin.
"Is there anything that hurts?" Jiang Cheng hugged her, his tone gentle and concerned.
Pei Xi shook his head.
"Let me take a look," Jiang Cheng said again.
"...Now?"
Pei Xi looked up at him, somewhat hesitant.
She paused for a second, blinked, and said somewhat innocently, "That works too, perfect, I'm not wearing underwear yet."
Jiang Cheng's brow twitched suddenly.
“No…” he paused, “Let me look somewhere else.”
Pei Xi paused, then looked away. "...Oh."
Jiang Cheng smiled slightly, his heart melting at her adorable expression.
He asked her for her opinion: "Baby, I want to lift up your clothes and take a look."
“Mm.” Pei Xi nodded.
Jiang Cheng gently lifted her nightgown, and what came into view was her slender, soft, white waist.
He tested it himself last night, and it fit perfectly in the space between his thumb and forefinger.
However, a bluish-purple mark stood out conspicuously on her fair skin.
Jiang Cheng's eyes darkened.
Pei Xi saw it too, and she said softly, "Hmm, this is the one you pressed yesterday."
