Chapter 73 The Bell Shakes
“Chen You…”
His voice was low, and his warm breath brushed against her neck as he spoke.
His kneeling posture in front of her did not affect the strength of his embrace; the veins on the back of his hand bulged, revealing his surging yet restrained emotions.
Shen You seemed to understand why he was so happy. Her heart suddenly pounded, and even the waist he was holding felt weak and trembled, as if it might fall at any moment.
She fell into his arms.
She pursed her lips and raised her hand to push his shoulder.
The man has strong back muscles and taut shoulder muscles, as if a burst of vigorous power is about to burst forth.
"Stand up first."
This posture is extremely awkward.
Chu Xiao obediently stood up, but his arm did not leave her at all, remaining as close to her as possible.
Shen You wanted to laugh, at his sticky and cuddly appearance.
But just as her red lips lifted, her hot lips fell.
The change in her posture caused her to tilt her head back, her delicate jawline slightly raised, allowing him to easily pry open her teeth.
"Hmm..."
His tall figure pressed down heavily, enveloping her. Shen You was almost forced to crash into the armchair behind her, but she felt no pain.
The man freed one hand to support her shoulder, placing it between her back and the back of the armchair.
She was completely enveloped in his embrace, with nowhere left to retreat.
Her red lips were alluring, and her saliva mingled with hers. Chu Xiao wished he could devour her whole, his breath heavy as if he were about to burst open.
Shen You couldn't resist such a kiss for long.
At first, she could barely keep up with his pace, but she soon gave in and could only stand there with her lips slightly parted, letting him ravage her without restraint.
"Chu Xiao..."
She was almost out of breath.
"Yes, Chu Xiao is here."
Chu Xiao kissed the corner of her lips, pulled the cloak beside him over her, draped it over her, and carried her out of the side hall.
Night fell, and the bright moon hung high in the sky.
The courtyard was brightly lit with candles, and the night breeze blew through the lanterns under the corridor, casting swaying shadows.
The man's steps were swift yet steady as he carried the person in his arms directly into Chenfeng Courtyard.
The winter night was bitterly cold, but Shen You was oblivious to it until she was placed on the chaise longue. Only then did she suddenly become more alert. She lifted her cloak and was about to sit up when she was once again silenced by a burning kiss.
"You... um..."
She tried to shrink back, but the chaise lounge was only so big, and it was a bit of a stretch to accommodate two people.
"stop..."
The girl's voice was so faint it was barely audible, but Chu Xiao still heard it.
He stopped moving, lay down beside her neck, and was breathing heavily.
The heat made Shen You's ears and the soft flesh around his neck turn completely red.
The underground heating in the room was burning brightly, and a landscape painting screen inlaid with stone stood to the side, reflecting the slightly overlapping figures of the two people.
Even though no one was moving, the shadow swayed slightly in Shen You's watery eyes.
She blinked, trying to calm her breathing.
Chu Xiao took a deep breath, sat down next to her, his arm still around her waist.
In a short while.
A questioning voice rang out, "Why do you have a dressing table here?"
He looked up at her voice, his gaze falling on the rosewood dressing table by the window.
Several dressing cases were placed on top, but the room still looked empty, clearly indicating that no one used them normally.
Chu Xiao buried his head back into her neck, inhaling her fragrance deeply, and said in a muffled voice, "I prepared this for you."
Shen You raised her eyebrows slightly, and she could hear a hint of grievance and disappointment in his voice.
When were you preparing for this?
"The time I came back from the back mountain of Nian'en Temple."
That was the time when Shen You was drugged, and the two of them indulged in their debauchery in the cabin behind the mountain.
At the time, Chu Xiao thought that their relationship could take a turn for the better, but he did not expect that when he woke up the next day, Shen You would leave without hesitation.
He was in a very depressed mood those days, but he still couldn't help but pick out a chaise longue, a dressing table, a vanity case, and an embroidered stool.
These things had been prepared long ago, but the lady of the house had never used them even once.
Upon hearing this, Shen You glanced at him lightly and was about to speak when she heard him say, "But you are now sitting on this chaise longue, so you can be considered to be using what I prepared for you."
He spoke very softly, as if he were trying to comfort himself.
Shen You suddenly found it amusing, and then remembered that every time he did something, he would ask her for a reward. So she straightened up and kissed the corner of his lips.
The girl's fragrance quickly approached and then quickly disappeared. Chu Xiao's head followed, instinctively wanting to continue the kiss, but she stopped him, saying, "Don't push your luck."
His Adam's apple bobbed heavily as he gazed at her flushed eyes, something seeming to come to mind.
He said, "Let me show you something."
"What is that?"
Shen You had no doubts and asked the question directly, following his lead.
Chu Xiao raised his hand and covered her eyes. "Close your eyes first."
Shen You was somewhat surprised that he would keep her in suspense, but she still followed his lead and closed her eyes.
The girl's curled eyelashes brushed lightly against the man's broad, warm palms, causing his eyes to darken.
He suppressed the urge to kiss her immediately, looked away from the chaise lounge, and took a small box from the wardrobe next to him.
When the eyes are closed, hearing becomes especially acute.
Shen You could hear rustling sounds around her, but she couldn't tell what Chu Xiao was doing.
However, he didn't keep her waiting for long. After only a moment, he came over, took her hand, and helped her up, guiding her little by little towards the bed.
"What are you trying to do?"
Shen You asked aloud, but received no answer.
She only opened her eyes abruptly when he led her hand to touch a cold object.
He then froze on the spot.
The man in front of him had already taken off his outer garments, leaving only a plain white undergarment on his upper body. The ties were loose, the collar was slightly open, and it was draped over his shoulder, seemingly about to fall off.
His wheat-colored skin was faintly visible beneath his clothes, and his strong muscles rose and fell with his breath.
Even more deadly is that
A golden bell chain was prominently displayed around his straight, sharp neck, where the veins throbbed.
Shen You swallowed hard, his voice trembling, "...What...what are you doing..."
Chu Xiao approached her step by step, his tall figure completely enveloping her. He took her hand and grasped the cold chain that hung down.
His lowered eyes held an undisguised aggression: "I'm showing off my learning achievements."
"What learning outcomes?"
He half-pushed her backward, her legs braced against the edge of the bed, and she fell onto the bed.
She pulled the chain, and he bent down as well.
At this moment, the man in front of her seemed to materialize into a large, wild dog.
He was fierce and ruthless, but with just a gentle hook or tug, he would eagerly come to her side, begging for her affection.
"Chu Xiao..."
Shen You's heart was pounding, and she subconsciously licked her lips.
This scene was truly too exciting.
She was almost completely captivated by the handsome man in front of her.
Chu Xiao knelt on one knee on the bed and approached her.
Until their breaths mingled.
He held her hand and gently tugged on the chain, causing the small bell around her neck to ring crisply.
"Shen You, would you like the bell to ring faster or slower?"
As he spoke, his Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and the sharp yet soft texture in his throat rubbed against the necklace, along with the throbbing veins, as if it were about to break free of the necklace's restraint at any moment.
"have no idea..."
Shen You's mind was about to lose its ability to think, and he gripped the chain so tightly that his fingertips turned white.
Smart men learn quickly, and Chu Xiao especially remembered every intimate moment between the two of them.
He pinned her against the headboard, and with a gentle flick of his long fingers, he effortlessly removed her sash.
The girl's waist was slender yet supple, and her rough palms, burning hot, roamed upwards, acting recklessly.
The kiss landed again, and the chain, following his movement, piled up at her neckline, slowly pressing against her skin.
The chain is cool.
But their skin was too hot to touch.
Shen You's body trembled uncontrollably, her delicate features as if painted with the finest rouge, slowly blooming a rosy blush.
The little beast called his name in a low voice.
A plain-colored dress lay on the edge of the bed, piled up next to the brown curtains.
On a dry, cold winter night, a warm, damp atmosphere gathered in the bed.
The bell around the man's neck rang intermittently, accompanied by the girl's soft voice.
The bulging veins on his neck indicated the force he was exerting at that moment.
His slender white hands, gripping the chain, tugged at it unconsciously, causing him to bend down even lower.
Shen You's eyelashes were wet with tears, her mind elsewhere, already controlled by the lust he had brought.
The bell grew hotter and hotter from the friction between their skin.
The tassels by the bed swayed back and forth as he spun her around in his arms.
As the chain pulled closer, he obediently leaned in to kiss her, leaving behind trails of red petals on her fair, delicate shoulders.
Shen You's voice was hoarse, and he completely suppressed his sobs.
In a daze, she seemed to hear his low, husky voice, "Let's not go back tonight, okay?"
Her eyes were unfocused, and fine beads of sweat glistened on her temples.
She placed her other hand on his strong, muscular arm, her neat, beautiful nails leaving scratches on his skin, but she had no strength to respond to him.
The night was deep, and spring was in full bloom.
After an unknown amount of time, Chu Xiao finally carried her inside to wash.
The bell necklace was still tied around his neck, but the other end of the chain was too soft for Shen You's fingers to hold, so he tied it to his wrist.
There are still a few traces he left behind in that spot.
The bell rang with every step, but Shen You was so tired that she could barely keep her eyes open.
The inner bath was recently renovated by the Duke's mansion so that she could bathe and soak freely after moving in.
Unexpectedly, it came in handy today.
Amidst the rising steam, Shen You leaned against him, letting him carefully wash her clean.
She was exhausted, but the pleasure she felt in her body was real.
Before long, Chu Xiao picked her up, carried her back to the bed, and took off the bell necklace and put it back in the wooden box.
Then, out of nowhere, he produced a small porcelain bottle, brought it to her lips, and kissed it. "I'll apply the medicine for you."
Shen You was dazed and turned her head without responding to him.
But the next moment, her beautiful eyes widened in shock when he suddenly kissed her between the legs.
"Chu Xiao!"
She was fully awake.
Chu Xiao quickly tried to comfort her and then leaned in to kiss her cheek.
He really didn't intend to do anything else, but he just couldn't help wanting to kiss her.
Shen You glared at him, but that glare had little effect at this moment. However, Chu Xiao was still afraid that she would get angry.
"I promise, I'll just apply the medicine to you."
Shen You pursed her lips and pulled the blanket over most of her face.
Knowing she was a little shy, Chu Xiao didn't continue. He just kept kissing her gently until she was drowsy and fell asleep. Then he bent down again and carefully applied the medicine to her.
