"Hmm?" Xu Yu brought her ear close to Ji Shengsheng's lips. "I don't understand."
Ji Shengsheng could only speak louder: "I said... I still want a kiss."
"...I don't really want to kiss you." Xu Yu mimicked Ji Shengsheng's tone.
Ji Shengsheng realized that Xu Yu had known what she was thinking all along and was just teasing her.
Before she could react, Xu Yu's kiss had already landed.
In the past, she was always the one to take the initiative. But when Xu Yu took the initiative, Ji Shengsheng realized that she was completely unable to resist.
Xu Yu remembered Ji Shengsheng's movements and expression when he kissed him. The movements were careful and gentle, like a kitten sniffing a human.
He never closed his eyes; he always had to watch Ji Shengsheng's expression.
Nothing can better demonstrate a protest to Ji Shengsheng than concrete actions.
That level of kissing was more torture than pleasure for him.
Xu Yu greedily inhaled the warmth that belonged to Ji Shengsheng.
After finally regaining her breath, Ji Shengsheng felt tears still welling up in her eyes, but she still couldn't help but accuse, "...you, you are such a person."
...He would always attack her when she least expected it, and if he kissed her too hard, he would even bite her a few times.
It seemed that those tender moments interspersed throughout were merely to lower her guard.
"Yes," Xu Yu admitted. "Are you scared?"
Ji Shengsheng turned her face away, reluctant to admit it: "...I wasn't that scared."
...It was quite exciting.
...a kind of illusion of being adored and possessed by someone you like, regardless of their feelings.
"Don't think I'm some kind of naiveté," Ji Shengsheng said seriously. "I'm very experienced."
Although she hasn't practiced it, she has drawn quite a lot, so you could say she has done in-depth research.
After Ji Shengsheng finished speaking, he inexplicably sensed that Xu Yu's expression was not very good.
As Xu Yu's breath moved from her neck to her shoulder, Ji Shengsheng wanted to dodge, but then felt that breath next to her ear.
"Sheng Sheng, don't be too honest with me." Xu Yu seemed like a different person. "There are some things you don't need to tell me."
"If you don't tell me, I'll pretend I don't know."
Ji Shengsheng: "..."
...What exactly did he tell him this time?
There was indeed a junior high school reunion in the afternoon.
To avoid any unforeseen trouble, Ji Shengsheng only planned to invite Xu Yu along after confirming that Xing Xing would not be participating.
Most of her junior high school classmates were her childhood friends, whom she had grown up with since kindergarten, though their relationships varied in closeness.
How should I introduce you to everyone?
As they were about to get off the bus, Ji Shengsheng looked at Xu Yu.
"Hmm?" Xu Yu helped her unbuckle her seatbelt and then threw the question back at her, "Do you think it's more appropriate to introduce me like this?"
"...Then let me introduce you as a friend?" Ji Shengsheng was afraid that Xu Yu would feel embarrassed.
...Actually, she herself would feel very embarrassed.
"Ji Shengsheng." Xu Yu moved infinitely closer to her, almost pressing her down into the passenger seat. "You'll hold hands and hug your friends..."
"Kiss?" Xu Yu's tone was unfriendly.
Ji Shengsheng: "..."
What's going on in his head?
"say."
Ji Shengsheng: "..."
It seems that after she expressed complete acceptance, Xu Yu's aggression and possessiveness became even stronger.
"Then who should I introduce you as?" Feeling Xu Yu's slightly fierce tone, Ji Shengsheng leaned back in her chair. "You've never said you like me, so I can't just introduce you as..."
Before she could finish speaking, Xu Yu was already kissing her.
It was a kiss she liked, long, deep, and emotionally charged.
Xu Yu placed his palm on the back of her head, making the already cramped space even more confined.
The space inside a car is never as spacious as inside a house. Pedestrians pass by from time to time. Ji Shengsheng is very nervous, but the atmosphere is obviously more exciting because of the tension.
For a moment, she felt a sense of disorientation, as if the air inside the car had become thick and sticky.
"Sheng Sheng," Xu Yu called her name after a long while, "introduce me like you would your boyfriend."
She could only nod.
Otherwise, in this atmosphere, she didn't know what Xu Yu might do in the car. She didn't know what she might tacitly allow Xu Yu to do.
After entering the private room, Ji Shengsheng introduced Xu Yu as if he were her boyfriend, just as Xu Yu had requested.
"How did they meet?" Everyone was very curious as they saw Ji Shengsheng with a boyfriend for the first time.
"We met at the university next door, through an event we organized," Ji Shengsheng said, scratching his head sheepishly.
"They must have been together for three or four years." "Are they planning to get married? Why did you suddenly bring her to meet us?"
Everyone started asking questions all at once, and Ji Shengsheng quickly explained, "No, we don't have that idea yet."
After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Xu Yu.
Xu Yu didn't seem to be listening, and Ji Shengsheng wasn't sure what he was paying attention to.
It was clear that everyone was shocked that she had found Xu Yu. Her junior high school deskmate, Tingting, gave her a thumbs up: "Ji Shengsheng, you've got some skills."
Ji Shengsheng was quite embarrassed by such comments.
When she looked at Xu Yu, Xu Yu remained calm and composed, as if he were used to hearing this kind of talk.
During the meal, people frequently asked her where Xing Xing had gone.
Ji Shengsheng knew that Xing Xing's grandmother hadn't been feeling well lately. Xing Xing had been raised by her grandmother since she was little, and she would probably stay by her grandmother's side every step of the way during this time.
"He's been quite busy with work lately."
Ji Shengsheng tugged at Xu Yu's sleeve under the table, but Xu Yu grabbed her hand, preventing her from moving.
But Xu Yu was holding her too tightly, and she felt a little sore, so she wanted to break free.
She really didn't know how she had encountered something so indescribable.
He looked at her almost immediately, as if she were doing it on purpose.
Ji Shengsheng wanted to withdraw his hand, but Xu Yu disagreed.
Nervousness made her palms burn even hotter.
The girl sitting to Ji Shengsheng's right was named He Ze. She wasn't familiar with He Ze and felt that He Ze was keeping an eye on her. Ji Shengsheng was afraid that she had been discovered.
Fortunately, Xu Yu got up to answer the phone, and she finally withdrew her hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sheng Sheng," He Ze whispered in her ear, "What do you think of this handsome Xu?"
Ji Shengsheng rubbed her hands, looking bewildered: "...It's fine."
"He's so handsome, he must be very experienced." Perhaps she'd seen something; Ji Shengsheng was practically banging her head on the ground in disbelief.
"...Can I borrow it for a bit? Just think of it as something that happened before he and you got together."
Ji Shengsheng: "...Huh?"
She had always heard that Heze was a rather unruly person with extreme hedonistic tendencies, but she never expected her to be so open-minded.
"It's rare to see such a handsome guy with such a great face and body..."
“It’s not about using him to date me, I don’t want to interfere,” Heze suggested. “It’s just about sharing, just once is enough.”
Ji Shengsheng: "..."
She had often heard others talk about Xu Yu before, and it was always about this topic, but no one had ever said it so bluntly before.
"...If you're particularly concerned, three people are fine too."
Ji Shengsheng quickly waved his hand: "...No, no."
What are all these things?
When Xu Yu returned, he was clearly unaware of what had happened.
He Ze tried several times to rub against Xu Yu's arm while pouring water, but was dodged each time. Realizing the other's intention, Xu Yu's expression turned ugly.
Realizing that the other person was not someone he could easily mess with, Heze quickly changed his position.
It was already dark when the dinner ended. Xu Yu and Ji Shengsheng strolled towards the hotel.
"Xu Yu, speaking of which, do you know that back then, many people really wanted to be with you?"
"What?" Xu Yu stroked the hand that Ji Shengsheng had just touched.
...It's a wonderful tactile sensation.
"Even if I can't win you over, I still want to... have some close contact with you."
"A lot of people?" Xu Yu stopped in his tracks.
"Yes!" Ji Shengsheng nodded vigorously.
"And what about you?"
"...I got it!" Ji Shengsheng exclaimed in surprise. "Have you forgotten?"
Xu Yu looked down at Ji Shengsheng's face: "So, you did it on purpose that day?"
"...No, it's just that the atmosphere was right later, so... It's also possible that I'm the same as everyone else, thinking that even if we can't be together for a long time, having that period of time is still good."
Although this may seem like a somewhat objectification of Xu Yu, that's how many people perceive her, and she is no exception.
After saying that, Ji Shengsheng suddenly remembered He Zeti's mention of "three people" and cautiously asked Xu Yu, "Do you know what it means to have three people together?"
He Ze herself is very experienced, and when she mentioned that Xu Yu is also very experienced, Ji Shengsheng was quite concerned.
In her opinion, if Xu Yu didn't know about the "three people," she was probably at least more innocent than she was.
However, Xu Yu clearly misunderstood her meaning.
“This is the bottom line.” Xu Yu’s expression suddenly turned serious. “I can only accept that we each have only one partner in our lives.”
"At least after me, you can only have me."
He could not accept that another man was sharing Ji Shengsheng's love at the same time.
When Ji Shengsheng brought up this matter, Xu Yu felt very threatened.
Ji Shengsheng hadn't yet recovered from Xu Yu's train of thought when, after a long silence, she heard Xu Yu speak again.
"Do you still want to be with someone else?"
Ji Shengsheng then realized what was happening and quickly explained, "...I was just asking out of curiosity, I really didn't have any ulterior motives."
Back at the hotel, the atmosphere was a bit tense.
Ji Shengsheng realized she might be being too sensitive. Even though Xu Yu had peeled an orange for her as usual, she still felt something was off.
Just as she was about to say something to Xu Yu, Xing Xing suddenly called.
Xing Xing sounded distressed on the phone.
Xing Xing felt very anxious, probably because her grandmother's health was deteriorating.
She spent a long time trying to comfort Xing Xing, but to no avail. At this moment, it was unlikely she would abandon Xu Yu alone.
"I'll keep you company on the phone," Ji Shengsheng sighed. "Tell me what you want to say, and if you're feeling down, just cry it out. It's okay. I understand."
Then, Xing Xing kept crying, and Ji Shengsheng tried his best to comfort her.
The room lights hadn't been turned on yet.
Xu Yu stood in the darkness, watching Ji Shengsheng comfort another man.
Listen to the gentle tone in her voice when she speaks to others.
He recalled that people at the table had been whispering about the relationship between Ji Shengsheng and Xing Xing, making many ambiguous speculations, just like back in college.
Ji Shengsheng and Xing Xing's seemingly indifferent intimacy is the root of many people's "misunderstandings".
Xu Yu recalled that day downstairs at Ji Shengsheng's house.
It seems that no matter how hard he tries, he can't achieve the same naturalness with Ji Shengsheng as she and Xing Xing.
Or perhaps they had already reached that point, but he simply couldn't accept that there was another man sharing Ji Shengsheng's attention with him.
Those dark emotions had already taken root in his heart.
With almost no psychological burden, he had to remove Xing Xing from Ji Shengsheng's life.
Ji Shengsheng hung up the phone an hour later.
When she subconsciously looked for Xu Yu, she realized he had been standing right behind her the whole time.
"Xu Yu?" Ji Shengsheng walked in his direction.
He walked up to Xu Yu and observed Xu Yu's expression by the light of the street lamps outside.
Fortunately, he remained calm, and Ji Shengsheng breathed a sigh of relief.
"I need to be home before ten o'clock." Ji Shengsheng glanced at the time. "Ten o'clock is my curfew."
"Two more hours." Xu Yu stroked Ji Shengsheng's hand that had touched him. "Shengsheng."
As if understanding his implication, Ji Shengsheng scratched his head, unsure how to respond: "...What, what do you want to do?"
"What do you want to do?" Xu Yu seemed not to understand her meaning.
“…I didn’t intend to do those things either.” Ji Shengsheng turned her face away, not daring to look at Xu Yu. “Actually, I also feel that things are developing too fast.”
"Shall I take you back now?" Xu Yu seemed to agree with her suggestion.
Ji Shengsheng: "...I didn't intend to go back now."
I want to spend more time with you.
"Sheng Sheng, have you thought it through?"
"What are you thinking..."
Before she could finish speaking, Xu Yu was already kissing her.
Xu Yu's initiative was alluring. He was always teasing her, making her chase after him, yet unwilling to let her succeed too quickly.
When she got a little annoyed, Xu Yu began to satisfy her in every way and with all her senses.
They satisfied her to the point where she couldn't bear it anymore, yet she was unwilling to back down even a little.
Then, Xu Yu carried her to the bedside, and they were as open and honest with each other as they had been at Xu Yu's house.
Everything happened so fast that Ji Shengsheng didn't even have time to react before they faced the same choice again.
Last time, she was actually the one who took the initiative more, while Xu Yu was more of a compliant one.
But this time was clearly different. Xu Yu's aggressive desire made her feel like she was suspended in mid-air, unsure when she would be able to land safely.
"Afraid?" Xu Yu didn't go any further.
"...I'm not afraid."
But she was shaking.
I don't know if it was due to the sensory impact or some other reason.
She felt her limbs were out of control, and her mind was shattered.
There wasn't a shred of reason left to consider whether things should have progressed to this point. Moreover, Xu Yu could go even further; he seemed to have been preparing for this for a long time.
As if being opened up to receive something, Ji Shengsheng gave up resisting, but sensed something was amiss.
Xu Yu turned on the light.
Under the bright light, she felt a soft, moist comfort and almost couldn't help but reach down to grab Xu Yu's hair.
Ji Shengsheng couldn't explain what Xu Yu was doing. She seemed to know, but dared not think about it.
...Xu Yu was serving her.
