Chapter 25 "Tell me if it hurts..."
He Xilou's voice was neither fast nor slow, and seemed to have a hint of coaxing, with a lingering ending that made people feel particularly nervous.
A warm current quietly surged in Meng Shiyi's heart, causing ripples.
This was his first time massaging a girl's legs?
She said she was afraid of hurting her...
"It's okay," Meng Shiyi looked at him seriously, her fingertips trembling slightly, "I, I'm not afraid of pain."
He Xilou raised his eyes and looked lazily.
The girl's black eyes were pure and clean, without a trace of impurities, and full of trust in him.
"Okay." He Xilou applied the ointment on her. After a while, he slowly pressed his palms on her calves and ankles, using the residual heat to promote absorption.
It was a little painful at first, so he deliberately relaxed his strength.
Meng Shiyi bit her lower lip slightly, her white fingertips curled up slightly, the corners of her eyes gradually turned into a charming pink, and her long, thick eyelashes fluttered gently.
Later, she couldn't bear it anymore, even her breathing became rapid, but she endured it and didn't cry out in pain.
“Hmm…”
She sobbed silently, a layer of mist formed in her eyes, emitting crystal light, and she looked at him wetly.
Like a simple and obedient little rabbit, she usually avoided him, running away as if she saw a wolf. But now her leg was injured and she could not run, so she could only let him control her, looking pitiful.
It was precisely this aggrieved and innocent look that made her even more distressed. I wanted to pinch her face hard...
He Xilou's Adam's apple rolled, and he continued to caress and pinch the flesh on her calves.
He didn't know where he got the patience from, and whispered comfortingly: "Tell me if it hurts, don't bear it."
"good."
Meng Shiyi sat quietly for a long time, her eyes reddened with pent-up anger, and she finally couldn't help but weakly called out his name:
"He Xilou..."
Her voice is gentle and soft, like melted honey in spring, which makes people feel pity and can melt to the bone.
Meng Shiyi rarely calls him by his full name.
He Xilou's narrow eyes were filled with dark colors as he asked, "Are you going to be more gentle?"
The little rabbit nodded.
It feels much better in the second half, basically there is no pain and I feel very comfortable.
He found that Meng Shiyi seemed a little ticklish, or perhaps she was actually afraid of being touched by him.
As long as I put my palm on her and rub her with a little force, she would tremble slightly, and a broken sound would come out of her lips from time to time.
He Xilou's eyes were deep and there was a hint of smile on the corner of his mouth.
Suddenly I remembered the cat I had before, it was also such a cute little one...
The temperature was very high in the afternoon, the cicadas were chirping constantly, and the air was stuffy and impetuous.
Meng Shiyi was a little breathless, and a layer of tiny beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
She didn't know why it turned out like this.
Originally, they were just planning to go hiking together, but before they knew it, He Xilou was massaging her legs by the stream, almost like a date with a young couple...
Meng Shiyi shook her head, trying to stay sober and calm.
But He Xilou's palm was extremely hot and a little rough, and it touched her skin without a single gap, transmitting the different body temperatures of the two.
Meng Shiyi felt even hotter.
The whole person seemed to be sitting on a cloud, without any strength at all, and the tips of his ears were involuntarily covered with a layer of pink mist.
She looked at He Xilou seriously.
The man lowered his head, his black hair thick, and because he was squatting, he looked less oppressive than usual, revealing a carefree laziness.
He seemed to notice something and suddenly looked up.
Their eyes met unexpectedly, and the atmosphere gradually became a little subtle.
Meng Shiyi seemed to be burned by the flames. She pursed her lips and slowly looked away.
He Xilou raised the corners of his eyes slightly, exerted a little more strength in his hands, and asked slowly:
"Are you feeling better?"
There was a hint of playfulness and teasing in his tone.
Meng Shiyi was a little slow, staring at her legs, and hummed softly:
"But...it's okay."
Very comfortable.
She's really almost recovered.
Meng Shiyi stood up and took a moment to recover. Although she wasn't as good as before the sprain, she was almost fully recovered and felt no discomfort.
A very faint smile curved her lips.
That’s great.
She was already very content and happy to be able to spend some time alone with He Xilou, even if it was only for a short while...
Meng Shiyi was about to leave the stream and continue climbing.
He Xilou suddenly squatted in front of her and said, "Come up."
Meng Shiyi was stunned, her voice trembling: "What?"
"I'll carry you." He Xilou sneered and said leisurely, "You sprained your ankle and still want to climb stairs? Aren't you afraid of having sequelae later?"
Before Meng Shiyi could speak.
He repeated again, his tone unyielding and a bit commanding:
"Come up, I won't say it a third time."
Meng Shiyi had no choice but to lie down behind him obediently, wrapping her arms around his neck: "Then... thank you for your help."
He Xilou stood up straight with ease, weighed it twice, and said lightly: "Wrap your legs around me."
“…”
Help, this is a terrible conversation, why does it feel like something is wrong?
Meng Shiyi didn't think too much about it. She obediently wrapped her legs around him, tightly wrapped around his waist, and her whole body was almost pressed against his back.
Fits perfectly.
He Xilou walked out of the woods and continued to climb up. He didn't even breathe hard while walking up the stairs. Carrying someone on his back was as easy as drinking water.
Many people looked over blatantly, some curious, some inquiring, some envious...
Although they were strangers whom they would never meet again, Meng Shiyi still felt a little awkward and uneasy.
She lowered her head and buried it in He Xilou's right shoulder, pressing her soft face against him, preventing others from seeing her face clearly.
He Xilou has broad shoulders, a narrow waist, a wide and thick back, and an almost perfect figure. It feels safe and inexplicably reassuring to hug him.
It's strange, right? He just has this kind of magic.
She was deeply attracted by it all the time.
Climb hundreds of steps.
Meng Shiyi's eyes were still pink, and she whispered in his ear, asking with concern:
"Will this tire you out? If you are, just put me down. I can walk by myself..."
He Xilou scoffed disdainfully, "It won't be a problem for you to carry two more."
"……oh."
Meng Shiyi thought about it carefully.
She almost forgot that He Xilou has always been in good physical condition, not to mention that he has won the swimming championship in the prestigious school league.
Swimming is a full-body exercise that stimulates all muscles. Winning a championship demonstrates high physical fitness and a large lung capacity...
Some people around looked over secretly and whispered:
"Oh my god, look at that young couple! Carrying each other up the mountain, so romantic! They must be going to the marriage tree to pray for happiness, right?"
"Fuck! I'm crawling like a cow, panting and panting, and when I turn around, I see other couples acting in an idol drama? Damn it, no affection shows allowed!"
"Oh my god, look at that guy, he's so handsome! Even more attractive than my idol!"
"The girl is so pretty too, so cute and soft that I want to take a bite. They are such a perfect match..."
The voice of the passerby was not loud, but it floated clearly into the ears of the two.
“…” Meng Shiyi unconsciously tightened her fingertips, a layer of mist covered her dark pupils, and she lowered her head with a red face.
She silently tightened her arms, feeling more and more embarrassed the more she thought about it.
Not long after, He Xilou suddenly stopped, tilted his head and raised his eyebrows:
"Sister Shiyi, relax."
Meng Shiyi slowly came back to her senses: "Hmm?"
"You're choking me," He Xilou asked casually with a chuckle, "Why, are you trying to strangle me to death?"
