"Unrestrained!"
Ning Fei guessed that her daughter was with Xie Zhiyan.
After confirming that her daughter planned to spend the night in the newly purchased apartment and that Xie Zhiyan would be with her, Ning Fei agreed without asking any further questions.
After hanging up the phone, Ning Yuxuan looked at the man in front of her with burning cheeks, feeling as if her whole body was on fire.
This time, the feeling was quite different from the last time she impulsively kissed him in the apartment.
That time, she was the one who initiated it all, but this time—
Calling her mother herself to tell her she wasn't coming home gave her the illusion that she had packed herself up and personally delivered herself to the man.
In particular, she clearly knew what was going to happen next.
That was something she had never truly experienced before.
"Xie Zhiyan..." Ning Yuxuan rarely had such a shy moment, her voice so soft it was almost like a mosquito's buzz.
She was so nervous that she didn't even realize that she was still clutching her phone tightly after the call ended.
Until Xie Zhiyan grasped her large hand, gently pried open her fingers one by one, and took out the phone she was clutching tightly.
The phone was tossed aside, followed by her clothes.
First, the man quickly untied her belt and threw it onto the chaise lounge against the wall in the bedroom.
Then her skirt was also damaged.
Ning Yuxuan was wearing a light blue short-sleeved shirt dress today. It had no zipper, and the two buttons at her collarbone were already undone.
Xie Zhiyan's fingertips were burning hot as they touched her collarbone.
Ning Yuxuan trembled slightly as if she had been burned, and looked up at the man.
The man's slightly rough fingertips gently caressed her collarbone, then slowly moved downwards, sending a series of shivers down her chest.
Then she finally stopped, her fingertips resting on the third button of the shirt dress that was still undone.
The slow movements only amplified the tension, and Ning Yuxuan felt like she could hardly breathe.
This man... if you're going to unbutton your clothes, why are you taking so long? Just give her a quick and easy way out.
After waiting for several seconds without Xie Zhiyan making any further move, Ning Yuxuan couldn't help but reach out and take his hand: "I can do it myself."
What should have been a forceful imperative sentence softened involuntarily, as if she were flirting with him.
The soft, sweet voice sounded unbelievable even to Ning Yuxuan herself.
Xie Zhiyan gave a muffled laugh.
"I'll do it." Xie Zhiyan refused her request without further explanation and pulled her hand away.
Ning Yuxuan was in a state where she had no strength to fight against him.
She could only urge him softly, "Then hurry up..."
Xie Zhiyan gave a deep "hmm" and finally began to unbutton her clothes.
Ning Yuxuan had no idea that a man's fingers could be so nimble.
The buttons on the shirt dress were small and thin; she herself had spent a long time buttoning them when she put them on that morning, but Xie Zhiyan was quickly unbuttoning them one by one.
At some point, all the buttons were undone, her skirt was hanging halfway on her shoulders, and she was only wearing a bra.
A chill ran through Ning Yuxuan's chest, and she instinctively tried to cover it, but Xie Zhiyan instantly grabbed both her wrists.
Ning Yuxuan couldn't even imagine what she looked like now. Too shy to meet the man's gaze, she could only sob and accuse him, "Xie Zhiyan!"
The man brought his hands to his front.
Xie Zhiyan: "Didn't you want to do it yourself?"
Ning Yuxuan's mind was in a mess, and she didn't understand what he meant for a moment: "What?"
"Didn't you just say you wanted to do it yourself?" Xie Zhiyan's voice was low and husky, with a hint of seduction. "I've given you all the buttons on my clothes."
Ning Yuxuan: "..."
She almost lost the ability to think, absentmindedly reaching out to unbutton Xie Zhiyan's shirt.
Compared to the man's agility, her movements could only be described as clumsy.
But Xie Zhiyan's hands were not behaving properly. While she was busy, his large hand slipped between her skirt and back, caressing her thin shoulder blades and smooth back skin.
Besieged on all sides, Ning Yuxuan couldn't take it anymore and wanted to give up.
She hummed softly in rejection, her words broken: "I...I can't do it, you do it."
Xie Zhiyan wouldn't allow it, holding her hand to prevent her from leaving, his tone like a coaxing: "Be good, it'll be done soon, there are only a few left."
Ning Yuxuan couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she had to continue with trembling hands.
It took Ning Yuxuan almost two minutes to unbutton all the buttons on his shirt.
Having finally completed her task, she breathed a sigh of relief and tried to pull her hand back, but the man grabbed it again.
He still wouldn't let her go.
Ning Yuxuan felt like she was about to explode: "Xie Zhiyan! All the buttons are already undone, what else do you want to do!"
How come I never noticed before that this man was so awful and enjoyed making things difficult for her?
Even at a time like this...
Xie Zhiyan looked at her intently, his voice hoarse: "That's not all."
The man's hand, guided by hers, slowly moved down until it touched the metal buckle on his belt.
“This,” Xie Zhiyan gazed into her eyes, “and…”
Guided by the man, her hand continued downwards.
...
Ning Yuxuan had no idea how it all started.
All I remember is that she finally unbuttoned every single button on his clothes, and then threw them aside one by one.
Whether it's on his body or hers.
In the end, the last piece of clothing she had left was also thrown onto the chaise lounge.
Immediately afterwards, Xie Zhiyan captured her trembling lips, swallowing all her broken moans.
Then came the earlobes, neck, collarbone, chest...
Every part of her body was destined to be kissed by him, and a tingling sensation spread from her spine throughout her entire body.
Ning Yuxuan had never experienced such a feeling before, and responded to him entirely on instinct.
At first, she just clung to him with both hands, but later she wrapped her legs around him as well.
If she hadn't been completely swept away by the waves of passion the man brought her, she might have been able to sense it—
Xie Zhiyan's movements were actually somewhat awkward, not at all like someone with a lot of experience.
His kiss was so forceful, yet his actions were actually restrained, even a little cautious, as if afraid of hurting her.
As a result, it can sometimes appear a bit clumsy.
However, Ning Yuxuan's senses were completely overwhelmed by the surging tide, leaving her no time to notice anything else, so she couldn't detect these things.
Only occasionally would she open her eyes and meet Xie Zhiyan's gaze, seeing his eyes, almost dazed from extreme pleasure.
Or perhaps, when you close your eyes, you hear a man's suppressed, restrained breathing beside you.
Only then can one glimpse a trace of his loss of control.
At the height of pleasure, Ning Yuxuan bit her lower lip hard, but she couldn't stop the soft moans that escaped from her lips.
Unable to bear making such a strange and shameful sound, she bit the man's shoulder.
...
When it was finally over, Ning Yuxuan felt like her body no longer belonged to her.
My skin felt sticky, my muscles ached, and my bones felt like they were falling apart.
She groaned softly, feeling a little uncomfortable, and shifted slightly in the man's arms.
I glanced up unintentionally and happened to see the chaise lounge by the wall.
The European-style chaise lounge is made of velvet, with intricate patterns, and is luxurious and elegant.
At this moment, however, the top was covered with their clothes, his white shirt was at the bottom, and on top of it were black trousers and her light blue shirt dress.
The light blue belt that the man had initially thrown over was still hanging on the back of the chair, along with her bra.
It was as if it were a blatant confession of how absurd the two of them had just acted.
Ning Yuxuan's face flushed red again in an instant, and she turned her head away, refusing to look.
A low chuckle came from beside him.
"What's wrong?" Xie Zhiyan's voice was slightly hoarse. "What did you see?"
The new house hasn't been furnished with much furniture yet, and Ning Yuxuan could only look at one chair.
He's asking a question he already knows the answer to.
Ning Yuxuan bit her lower lip, her tone filled with dissatisfaction: "You still ask!"
In response, the man's arms tightened around her from behind.
Ning Yuxuan was too weak to struggle and could only let him go.
After calming down for a while, she asked him, "What time is it?"
Her cell phone was on the bedside table, and there was a wall clock in the room.
But whether she reached for her phone or looked up at the clock on the wall, Ning Yuxuan had no strength.
Or even if she did, she wouldn't want to bother looking for it.
After being tormented by the man for so long, even the slightest movement causes her body to ache.
Xie Zhiyan's voice was deep: "A quarter past midnight."
Ning Yuxuan: "..."
I thought it would be late, but I didn't expect it to be past midnight.
Ning Yuxuan couldn't help but say, "Xie Zhiyan, I'm so tired..."
The taut string snapped, and she began to complain uncontrollably: "Xie Zhiyan, it's all your fault, you wouldn't stop... Later I said I didn't want to anymore, but you wouldn't listen, you insisted on doing it again..."
She rattled off a long list of the man's misdeeds, not only accusing him but also expressing her regret for not having the heart to reject him earlier.
Ning Yuxuan regretted it.
The last time she checked the time, the hour hand was pointing to the number eleven.
She should have said "no" firmly at that moment and gone to sleep immediately.
But for some reason, after being coaxed by Xie Zhiyan a few times, she actually became bewitched and agreed.
The consequence is that after it was all over, she became like this.
Ning Yuxuan had never been this tired before.
At that moment, she felt extremely wronged and couldn't help but pour out her grievances: "My whole body aches, I'm so tired and sleepy, I really want to sleep, but I haven't taken a shower yet..."
Xie Zhiyan placed his hand on her waist and gently massaged it twice in a soothing manner: "I know, it's all my fault. I'll carry you to the bathroom to take a shower now, okay?"
Ning Yuxuan replied without hesitation: "I don't want you to hug me!"
Although he said that, he knew in his heart that this was the only option.
Her legs are so weak that she can barely walk, so how can she take a bath by herself?
Although Ning Yuxuan wasn't a germaphobe, she still couldn't stand sleeping with her whole body sticky like that.
Xie Zhiyan knew she was just saying it in anger, so after saying a few words of comfort, he still got up and carried her to the bathroom.
Ning Yuxuan had long since lost the strength to resist, and she barely had the strength to speak.
Fortunately, Xie Zhiyan seemed to realize that she was close to exhaustion, and his movements remained very proper throughout.
After she washed up, he carried her back to bed.
The sound of water came from the bathroom again; Xie Zhiyan was taking a shower.
Ning Yuxuan leaned against the bed, her hair wet, with a bath towel draped over her shoulder.
She was wearing a simple women's nightgown, which Xie Zhiyan had probably prepared in advance, and it was quite different from Ning Yuxuan's own style of clothing.
Fortunately, the size was right and the material was very comfortable.
When she arrived yesterday, the house wasn't fully stocked. Ning Yuxuan glanced at it while taking a shower just now and discovered that even a toothbrush and toothpaste cup were prepared in the bathroom.
After taking a hot shower, Ning Yuxuan's body finally recovered a little from its near-limit state.
Although I still lacked strength, at least I wasn't in a state where I was about to faint.
Ning Yuxuan picked up a strand of her hair. She hadn't washed her hair properly, but it was still a little wet while cleaning it. She figured she'd have to blow-dry it before going to sleep.
She turned her head and glanced again at the clothes of the two people piled together on the chaise lounge, then pursed her lips.
It was painful and tiring, but...
It's very comfortable.
This thought startled Ning Yuxuan herself.
Humans really are creatures that forget the pain once the wound has healed.
I was so upset just now that I wanted to curse, and I wished I would never do that kind of thing again in my life.
Now that I've recovered a bit, I find myself unconsciously savoring the feeling from just now.
Despite her inner despising, Ning Yuxuan couldn't help but reminisce.
Especially the second time, compared to the first time, she was completely exhausted and had no energy left to cooperate with him.
But the body is fully prepared, and all the senses are activated.
...
Ning Yuxuan swallowed hard, forcing herself not to think about it anymore.
The bathroom door was pushed open, and Xie Zhiyan walked out wearing a bathrobe.
The man was enveloped in a layer of moisture, with water droplets still clinging to his hair and body.
His damp hair fell softly down the sides of his face, softening his usually sharp gaze and making him look even gentler.
Ning Yuxuan stared blankly for a few seconds, then her gaze shifted slightly downwards, landing on the man's firm chest.
Only after realizing what she was doing did she quickly look away.
Xie Zhiyan chuckled softly: "What are you looking at?"
Ning Yuxuan quickly replied, "It's nothing."
She paused, then spoke again: "Xie Zhiyan..."
Xie Zhiyan responded gently, "Hmm?"
Ning Yuxuan: "I...I think I'm a little hungry. Is there anything to eat at home?"
Partly because the atmosphere was awkward and she wanted to change the subject, but she was also genuinely a little hungry.
I worked overtime today and ate dinner around 8 p.m., but I didn't feel hungry at that time and didn't eat much.
After all this trouble, the clock is almost pointing to one o'clock.
Ning Yuxuan felt a little empty in her stomach.
A hint of a smile flashed across Xie Zhiyan's eyes: "I'll go take a look."
Ning Yuxuan nodded.
A minute later, Xie Zhiyan returned to the bedroom: "I have bread and salad, is that alright?"
Ning Yuxuan: "Is there anything hot?"
Xie Zhiyan pondered for a moment: "There's nothing to eat right away, but we have noodles. If you'd like, I can cook you a bowl of noodles."
Ning Yuxuan found it a bit troublesome, but she still couldn't resist the craving for hot food.
Late-night snacks should be hot and delicious; eating bread is just too pathetic.
After thinking for a moment, Ning Yuxuan nodded and said, "Mm."
Xie Zhiyan glanced at her still-wet hair.
Ning Yuxuan understood: "Go cook the noodles, I can blow-dry my hair myself."
Xie Zhiyan's brow twitched slightly: "Really?"
Ning Yuxuan glared at him: "Fine."
Xie Zhiyan chuckled.
"I'm just a little worried," the man said slowly. "Judging from the way some of them looked just now, they seemed so tired they were about to cry."
Ning Yuxuan was furious: "That's all because of you!"
Xie Zhiyan readily apologized to her, went to get the hair dryer, and plugged it in by the bedside.
"I'll go cook some noodles," he said. "Call me if you need anything."
Ning Yuxuan thought to herself, what could possibly happen if I just blow-dry my hair?
“I understand,” she said.
Watching Xie Zhiyan go to the kitchen, Ning Yuxuan pressed the button on the hair dryer to dry her hair.
Just as her hair was dried, Xie Zhiyan told her that the noodles were ready.
Ning Yuxuan reached out and unplugged the hair dryer, preparing to eat noodles.
After getting out of bed and taking a couple of steps, she couldn't help but hiss.
Standing is fine, but as soon as I take a step, my legs ache terribly.
Seeing this, Xie Zhiyan walked over and picked her up without saying a word.
Before tonight, Ning Yuxuan had never been carried in a princess carry by Xie Zhiyan.
I never expected that in just a few hours, he would have hugged me countless times.
Xie Zhiyan had already become quite skilled, and she naturally followed his movements, putting her arm around the man's shoulder.
After realizing how comfortable it was for her to hug him, Ning Yuxuan felt a little uncomfortable.
“I can walk by myself…” she said softly.
Xie Zhiyan's voice carried a faint smile: "Yes, I know, but I want to hug you."
Ning Yuxuan: "..."
Ning Yuxuan sat down at the dining table and took the chopsticks handed to her by Xie Zhiyan.
A small bowl of noodles was placed on the table.
She had tried Xie Zhiyan's cooking on the show before, and it unexpectedly suited her taste.
The noodles smelled delicious this time, and a fried egg was placed on top.
Xie Zhiyan: "Eating too much at night is bad for your health, so I didn't cook too much. Is this alright?"
The man's tone was gentle, a stark contrast to how he had sounded just an hour or two ago.
Ning Yuxuan nodded: "That's enough."
Although she felt a bit more refreshed after taking a shower, she was still feeling tired, so she planned to finish the small bowl of noodles and then go to sleep.
Ning Yuxuan took a bite of the egg and casually asked, "You know I like fried eggs?"
Xie Zhiyan hummed in agreement: "I've heard Aunt Ning mention it."
Ning Yuxuan herself doesn't remember when her mother said that.
She glanced at him: "Has your memory always been this good, or is it just that you remember my likes and dislikes so clearly?"
Xie Zhiyan smiled: "I remember everything that is related to you very clearly."
After eating noodles, Xie Zhiyan went to the kitchen to wash the dishes, while Ning Yuxuan brushed her teeth and went to bed.
As soon as her head hit the pillow, drowsiness overwhelmed her, and Ning Yuxuan fell asleep almost immediately.
In her hazy state, she seemed to feel Xie Zhiyan lying down beside her, his arms encircling her waist.
Ning Yuxuan adjusted to a comfortable position and quickly drifted off to sleep.
...
When she woke up again, Xie Zhiyan was no longer at home.
Ning Yuxuan vaguely remembered that Xie Zhiyan seemed to have told her before going to bed last night that he had something to do at the company tomorrow and would leave first, so she could sleep until she woke up naturally.
But by then she was already on the verge of falling asleep, not thinking straight.
There was a note on the bedside table.
Ning Yuxuan took it and looked at it; it contained two lines of strong, vigorous handwriting:
The steamed pork ribs are in the refrigerator; they only need to be microwaved for one minute. I'll be back before lunch.
She had this dish at a breakfast shop in Jiangcheng last time, and she liked it very much.
I didn't expect Xie Zhiyan to still remember.
Ning Yuxuan glanced at the wall clock and realized she had slept until 11:30.
Her first reaction was to check her phone.
There was no important information or phone call.
Ning Yuxuan hesitated whether to call Ning Fei now.
This is the first time in years that she's stayed out all night. Although her mother hasn't called to ask, she's probably still worried about her.
As if by telepathy, the phone rang at that very moment; it was the mother calling.
Ning Yuxuan quickly answered, "Hello, Mom?"
The first thing I said after waking up was before my voice had even warmed up.
Ning Fei noticed something was wrong with her daughter's voice: "Xuanxuan, did Mommy disturb your sleep?"
It was a perfectly normal question, but Ning Yuxuan felt her face getting hot.
It seemed her mother could guess why she went to bed so late last night, which is why she slept until noon today.
Ning Yuxuan cleared her throat somewhat awkwardly and replied, "No, I've been up for a while now."
Ning Fei hummed in agreement, whether she believed her or simply didn't expose her.
When Ning Yuxuan felt guilty, she would talk more than usual: "Mom, why are you calling? Are you alright at home? Has anything happened?"
After a series of questions, Ning Yuxuan felt that she had asked them a little too unnaturally.
On the other end of the phone, Ning Fei sensed her daughter's embarrassment and laughed, "What could possibly be wrong at home? Mom's fine. And you, have you had lunch yet?"
Ning Yuxuan: Not yet, I'll eat in a bit.
Ning Fei: "Zhiyan is with you?"
Ning Yuxuan: "...Mm."
Judging from the note, Xie Zhiyan would probably go home and eat with her.
Ning Fei smiled, knowing her daughter was embarrassed, and didn't ask any more questions.
“The production team called me this morning.” Ning Fei changed the subject. “The schedule for the final episode has been finalized. We’ll be flying to Lucheng on Friday.”
Ning Yuxuan: "Mm."
Ning Fei: "After all, it's a long trip, and we still have a day and a half. I want to pack my luggage in advance. If there's anything I need to buy, I'll have time to buy it. Xuanxuan, are you coming back today?"
Before her daughter could answer, Ning Fei continued, "It's okay, it's fine if you don't come back. Just like last time, Mom will help you pack. We'll leave on Friday, and you just need to be home by Thursday night."
Ning Yuxuan felt embarrassed because her mother was so "understanding".
Ning Yuxuan: "Go back! No need to wait until Thursday, I'll go back today and help you pack!"
Ning Fei's tone carried a hint of mischievous amusement: "Really coming back today?"
Ning Yuxuan said reproachfully, "Mom!"
Ning Fei laughed and stopped teasing her daughter.
"Oh, right," Ning Fei asked, "the production team told us all to bring our driver's licenses. But I haven't used mine in a long time. Xuanxuan, do you remember where Mommy keeps her driver's license?"
Ning Yuxuan: "Isn't it in our car?"
Ning Fei: "Yes, we've looked through the glove box, but it's not there. We've also looked through the metal box where we keep our documents, but it's not in there. Mom really can't remember where she put it."
Ning Yuxuan pondered for a moment: "If they're not here, they might be in the study. Should I look for them again when I get back?"
Ning Fei: "Okay."
After chatting with her mother for a few more minutes, Ning Yuxuan hung up the phone.
I got up to brush my teeth and wash my face, and was about to take out the steamed pork ribs from the refrigerator to heat them up when I heard someone opening the door in the entryway.
Ning Yuxuan turned her head and met Xie Zhiyan's gaze as he entered the room.
Xie Zhiyan's gaze swept over the lunchbox in her hand, and the corners of his lips curled slightly: "Just woke up?"
Ning Yuxuan blurted out, "Isn't it all because you didn't know your limits last night!"
