White lace curtains swayed gently in the breeze, and the headboard was piled high with fox plush toys of all sizes. A unique, sweet fragrance wafted in the air, and Shen Xiaomin's eyes were tinged with a bewitching red, while his tightly clenched lips let out a low, uncontrollable gasp.
The thin yet sturdy body trembled slightly...
"Thump, thump, thump..."
The sound of high heels clicking on the ground could be heard from afar.
Shen Xiaomin froze, lifting his head from the soft pillow. His dark, bright eyes stared straight at the door. Then, his well-defined fingers rearranged the messed-up plush toys and smoothed out the wrinkled pillowcases and sheets. Only after making sure the bed was back to its original state did he breathe a sigh of relief.
He sat on the bed with his head drooping.
When Yuan Jiang entered the room, she saw Shen Xiaomin sitting pitifully on the edge of the bed. His white shirt was thrown into the dirty laundry basket next to him. He was naked, covered with sterile gauze, and the lines of his bulging chest muscles and the strong muscles in his arms could be vaguely seen.
His dark, wet hair hung down to his eyebrows and eyes, obscuring them. Only his delicate chin and tightly pursed lips could be clearly seen.
"Why aren't you lying down?" Yuan Jiang walked to Shen Xiaomin's side, glanced at the clean and tidy bed, and asked gently.
Shen Xiaomin slowly raised her head and looked at her, giving a shy smile: "Sister, there is a custom in our village that men cannot sleep in women's beds casually."
"Can't my sister's be included either?" Yuan Jiang frowned suspiciously. What kind of ridiculous rule is this from?
"Hmm..." Shen Xiaomin blushed, her eyes glistening with tears as she looked at Yuan Jiang: "People in our village are very conservative. Before marriage, we don't even hold hands, let alone..."
He puffed out his cheeks, hesitated shyly for a while, and then said softly and gently, "Let alone sleeping in... a woman's bed."
"It's about being responsible and respectful to your partner, so sister, I can't just sleep in your bed."
"But if you really want to..."
“I can sleep too.” Shen Xiaomin stuck out her scarlet tongue and licked her lips, her bright black eyes blinking.
no?
How did it come to the point where you can only sleep in each other's beds after you get married?
Is there anything else she really wants to say?
Yuan Jiang's mind went blank for a moment: "No...."
"Sister, don't worry, I won't tell anyone." Shen Xiaomin interrupted Yuan Jiang shyly.
Yuan Jiang was silent for a moment, then lowered her eyebrows and chuckled. She crossed her arms and slightly raised her chin: "Fine, then tell me, what won't you tell anyone?"
Shen Xiaomin swallowed hard, her clear voice trembling slightly at the end: "Tell others that I slept in my sister's bed."
“Little brother Xiaomin.” Yuan Jiang tilted her head and smiled politely, “It’s the 21st century now, sleeping in someone else’s bed is nothing to worry about.”
"Huh...?" Shen Xiaomin stared blankly at Yuan Jiang.
Yuan Jiang's smile deepened, her slender, jade-like fingers pinching Shen Xiaomin's earlobe, her full, rosy lips breathing into his ear: "What's the big deal about sleeping in a bed? Even if you've slept together, you might not get married."
Shen Xiaomin was suddenly startled, lowered her eyelashes to conceal the dark glint in her eyes, and whispered in a voice as soft as a mosquito's bite: "Sister..."
Are all city folks this bold?
"If it were me, I would stay with whoever I slept with forever."
Seeing the boy's face visibly turn ugly, Yuan Jiang gave a wicked smile, her lips lightly brushing against his cheek as she chuckled and told him, "Yeah, everyone's very open-minded these days."
Shen Xiaomin pressed his thin lips into a straight line, his clear, glassy eyes staring menacingly at Yuan Jiang's exposed, slender, white ankle. It was incredibly beautiful; even her delicate crystal shoes seemed like mere embellishments. Her ankle was slender, her skin translucent white, and a red mole grew between her wrist bones, making her appear even more alluring.
