76/Dating
Shen Yu returned to Suibei mainly for his grandfather's birthday. He knew Chen Mian was not comfortable with such occasions, so he didn't mention it to her. Knowing that she had booked a high-speed rail ticket for the afternoon, he didn't comment after checking her train information. This lack of interference and the absence of any request for her to stay in Suibei for a few more days made Chen Mian feel very relaxed.
It was nearly 2 a.m. when the two returned from the mountainside. Chen Mian took her clothes to take a shower. As soon as she closed the door, she heard Chen Yu playing music on the stereo outside. The cheerful love songs perfectly matched their mood at that moment, like having a little rabbit jumping around in their arms. They turned on the shower and felt like they were dreaming.
Suddenly I understood why Shen Yu's words didn't seem entirely true.
Chen Mian didn't know how much time had passed while she was taking a shower. She only heard a song finish playing when someone knocked on the bathroom door from the outside.
—Knock knock knock.
The man called out from outside the door in a drawn-out tone, "Girlfriend, five minutes have passed. How long are you going to take this shower?"
The word "girlfriend" was practically on his lips all night, completely replacing her name.
Chen Mian ignored him and simply sped up her shower.
"Tsk, still ignoring me. It's only been four hours since we started dating. A relationship that's only been going on for four hours, and your girlfriend is already using emotional abuse. Can that be a criminal offense, Lawyer Chen?"
Chen Mian: "..."
After turning off the water, he told the person outside who kept shouting, "There's no way to get a verdict, so don't rush me."
When Shen Yu heard Chen Mian's voice from outside, he responded with an "oh" as if he had really heard her. But even after responding, his hands didn't stop. He tapped his fingers on the door as if he were providing musical accompaniment, demonstrating his ability to multitask to the fullest. In his other hand, he was also replying to a bunch of jealous people on his WeChat Moments.
To You Huai: Don't be so sour, that's your girlfriend. My girlfriend is a law student and wouldn't do something like that.
He then replied to Chi Sheng in the group chat: Study hard, my friend. Only with a good brain can you find a girlfriend.
In return, I received a string of ellipses.
You Huai: Shen Yu, if you're not a dog, then who is?
You Huai: (Speaking on behalf of Chi Sheng, whose phone has been confiscated) Shen Yu, you're a fucking bastard.
Shen Yu was in a good mood and didn't care. He looked away from his phone and then at the closed bathroom door.
While lazily typing, he thought about everything that had happened tonight. No matter how he thought about it, it felt unreal. He reopened the message Chen Mian had sent him and read it from the first sentence to the last. He didn't know how many times he had read it. He hadn't been this serious when memorizing key points in his senior year of high school. He read it over and over again, doing reading comprehension exercises.
When the last sentence was mentioned again, the door was opened from the inside.
The heat hit her face. Chen Mian's hair was still wet. She was wearing a pink nightgown, her face was red, and she smelled strongly of shower gel. She looked like a fairy who had escaped from a jar. Being urged to take a shower was making the good-tempered Chen Mian a little annoyed, especially the constant knocking on the door, which seemed to be a life-or-death situation.
All the emotion I felt was washed away by my frustration. My thought of "I should treat him better in the future" quickly turned into "But Shen Yu is really annoying." All it took was a shower.
She braced her hand on the doorknob, and the action of pushing the door open caused Chen Yu's fingers, which were instinctively reaching to knock, to miss.
She asked irritably, "I told you not to rush me, why are you still rushing me?"
The person in front of her showed no remorse for doing anything wrong. After carefully examining her expression, he realized that she was indeed a little angry. Without saying much, he took out his phone and read to her in a standard announcer's voice, "—But this is not good. You seem to be the only exception in my pessimism."
He turned off the screen, lowered his eyes, and asked her with some dissatisfaction, "Is this the kind of attitude you have towards your family's special case?"
Deng Momo once said that boyfriends are typical examples of creatures who, if not disciplined for three days, will climb onto the roof and tear off the tiles, and if given a little punishment, can turn the world into a rainbow.
At the time, Chen Mian didn't quite understand the meaning behind Deng Momo's words, but now she fully grasped it.
It even generated a profound sense of agreement that made a lot of sense.
Who could have imagined that Shen Yu would turn out like this after falling in love?
Her face was practically screaming, "Don't talk to me loudly, I'm your boyfriend now!", "How could you treat me like this? I'm your boyfriend now!", "How dare you bother me? I'm your boyfriend!", "No way, no way, can someone really start bothering their boyfriend right after starting a relationship?", like a scrolling barrage of comments.
I'm afraid Chen Mian won't understand.
Sighing deliberately, feigning pitifulness, and acting aggrieved.
"You're the one who said you liked me, and you're also the one who found me annoying. Chen Mian, aren't you a scumbag?"
Chen Mian: "..."
She threw the towel in her hand directly at Shen Yu, saying, "Shut up, Shen Yu."
Shen Yu quickly took the towel, and even he felt that he was being a bit too cheeky, so he couldn't help but laugh.
I'm genuinely happy.
My shoulders were shaking, and I was so close to her that I felt incredibly happy to hear her talking to me.
He pressed two fingers against her temple and quickly moved them away, saying, "Okay, as you wish."
He acted completely nonchalant and lawless, like a child who had just pulled off a prank, and then made a zipper-like gesture with his lips to show Chen Mian that he was really shut up.
It's both frustrating and funny.
Shen Yu is really just a kid!
This idea was quickly overturned.
It was night.
In the room where Chen Mian slept, a large mound arched under the light blue quilt.
Chen Mian's hair was loose and the ends were still a little damp. She was pinned down by Shen Yu. A small night light was on in the room, dimly illuminating a short distance. Shen Yu's face was partially hidden in the light and shadow. The windows were closed and the central air conditioning was blowing out heat.
Chen Mian kept moaning as her pajamas were lifted up, revealing her soft waist and full breasts.
The other person's fingers moved up from the waistband of their pants, like playing the piano. The small speaker in the room sensed the changes in the room from afar, humming an ambiguous tune endlessly. The whole room felt as if half the air had been sucked out and then injected with a sweet bomb.
The scents of their shower gels mingled together, their body temperatures gradually rising, the sweet aromas seeming to fill a steamer.
The lyrics sing of the beauty of the night, inviting you to immerse yourself in its splendor.
Shen Yu truly followed the lyrics perfectly, making the most of the beautiful night.
As soon as the fingers stopped moving, the lips took their place, roaming over the neck, then down to the collarbone, chest, ribs, and waist.
Chen Mian went from grabbing the bed sheet to clinging to his back.
She kept repeating his name, "Chen Yu, Chen Yu, Chen Yu".
But Shen Yu didn't say a word, only occasionally letting out a muffled laugh.
I've never been so gentle before; it doesn't feel like making love, it feels more like getting to know each other's bodies.
Winter turned into a scorching summer.
As her pajama bottoms were pulled down, Shen Yu kissed her earlobe, the lingering kiss eliciting all the itch hidden within her body, and then he inserted his fingers inside.
His foreplay was patient and gentle, using kisses to replace all sounds, and beads of sweat rolled down her forehead.
The moment she was filled, Chen Mian tightened her fingers, wrapping them tightly around his body, and a long, low moan escaped her lips.
Shen Yu began to move quickly. The surrounding darkness perfectly matched the unreality he described. Only the pain broke the illusion, pulling reality to its extreme. Chen Mian bit her lip, trying her best to suppress all her gasps, and was also a little inexplicably competitive. She didn't understand why Shen Yu didn't say a word, leaving only her own voice echoing in the room.
She was hot-tempered, and she was shy.
In the darkness, she could barely see Shen Yu's face. He turned his head to the side and kissed her upturned neck, his lips landing on her throat.
Chen Mian asked him breathlessly, somewhat annoyed, "Why...why aren't you saying anything?"
The sound was amplified again, and all that could be seen was the pitch-black ceiling.
The movement stopped.
Shen Yu's voice was also panting, "You won't let me speak."
He bit her shoulder, and the heat in his voice made her tremble uncontrollably.
This overly sensitive reaction made his chest vibrate, and he laughed all night, asking knowingly, "So, can I speak now?"
Chen Mian bit her lip and pushed his shoulder.
She was easily subdued by the other party.
He leaned down and gently rubbed her face with his fingers.
"Chen Mian, I have something to tell you."
Even as he was saying this, he didn't stop.
As Chen Mian floated up and down in pleasure, she asked him, trying to catch her breath, "Wh-what?"
Just then, the lyrics playing from the speakers went: Who would have thought that you, who would have thought that I, would be able to work together to the point of loving each other to death.
It's so fitting. If we turn back time to the very beginning, neither Chen Mian nor Shen Yu could have imagined that they would be so close together now.
At this moment, Shen Yu thought: It doesn't matter if it's a dream.
He leaned down and thrust in hard.
"We're dating, that's all. I just wanted to remind you so you wouldn't forget."
After saying that, he kissed her again, his lips pressed against hers.
"It's okay if you forget, I'll remind you every day."
