Chapter 65: Pt.1

The weather at night was cool and refreshing because of the rain. Murong Shi wore a white shirt, and she unbuttoned the buttons one by one in a slow fashion. Although her expression was not as enchanting as the two dancing female streamers next door, her dark and slender eyes were capable of seducing people's souls.

Xu Chuanchuan had her eyes glued to Murong Shi the entire time. However, When Murong Shi undid the third button and exposed a beige-colored camisole, a hint of disappointment flashed in Xu Chuanchuan's eyes.

Murong Shi revealed a faint smile when she saw Xu Chuanchuan's reaction. Then, she said, "No rushing. This has to be done slowly."

"You're really going to dance?!"

"Didn't you want to see? I doubt I look any worse than those two beauties, right? Come."

Come where?

Before Xu Chuanchuan could snap out of her daze, Murong Shi had already removed her outer clothing and casually dropped it to the floor.

Xu Chuanchuan subconsciously followed the falling shirt with her eyes. Then, she said, "The floor is dirty."

When Xu Chuanchuan tried to crouch down and pick up the shirt, Murong Shi held onto Xu Chuanchuan's wrist and dragged the shorter woman toward her. Then, she said, "Eyes on me. Am I that lacking in charm?"

It was no exaggeration to say that Murong Shi was the most alluring woman Xu Chuanchuan had ever met in real life. Even Ange, someone cheap on praises, couldn't help but sing praises of Murong Shi's beauty. So, how could such a person possibly lack charm?

It wasn't that Xu Chuanchuan didn't want to look at Murong Shi. Instead, it was because she dared not do so. As soon as she saw Murong Shi's face, particularly those beautiful eyes, Xu Chuanchuan felt as if her soul was being lured away.

After tentatively placing her hands on Murong Shi's bare shoulders, Xu Chuanchuan looked up and stared at Murong Shi's pale and thin lips. Then, she dryly laughed and said, "Dance if you want to; I promise to enjoy it. But you have to let me go first."

As if placating a cat, Murong Shi gently held onto Xu Chuanchuan's chin and said, "It'll be more enjoyable for two people to dance together."

"But I don't know how to dance?"

"It's alright. I'll teach you," Murong Shi said as she began undressing Xu Chuanchuan.

"Ah—" Xu Chuanchuan's face turned pale with fright, and she desperately held onto her shirt. "I'm not wearing any extra clothing underneath!"

These words ended up stirring Murong Shi's interest. "Is that so? Let me take a look."

Xu Chuanchuan shuddered when she felt two cold hands flexibly intruding into her T-shirt from below. If she stopped paying attention for even a moment, she was certain Murong Shi would flip her shirt.

Just as Xu Chuanchuan was about to have her body exposed, she noticed light coming through the balcony. Immediately, she shouted, "Wait!"

"Hm?"

Then, Xu Chuanchuan looked across Murong Shi's shoulder and stared at the rain outside, asking, "There won't be anyone peeping on us, right?"

Murong Shi had completely forgotten about such a possibility because of all the fun. Immediately, she let go of Xu Chuanchuan and went to close the glass doors.

"The curtains as well," Xu Chuanchuan reminded.

Murong Shi then closed the curtains.

Taking advantage of this moment, Xu Chuanchuan quickly picked up the shirt on the floor and indiscriminately wrapped it around her body. Then, she turned around and fled.

When Murong Shi heard the movement, she turned around and frowned, asking, "Where are you going this late at night?"

Without even turning around, Xu Chuanchuan said, "It's stuffy inside! I'm going out for some air!"

After opening the door, Xu Chuanchuan promptly broke into a dash, only to nearly crash into the person outside the door.

Fang Qin reacted swiftly and caught Xu Chuanchuan. Then, she asked, "What happened?"

After regaining her bearing, Xu Chuanchuan shook her head and said, "I'm sorry. Did it hurt you?"

"I'm fine. Why are you dressed like this?"

Xu Chuanchuan let out an awkward laugh. Then, after using the two sleeves to tie a knot in front of her chest, she arbitrarily changed the topic and asked, "Are you here to look for Murong?"

Fang Qin didn't probe further into the matter as she said, "I'm here to look for you two. I'm feeling a little hungry, so I wanted to see if you two wanted to go have some supper together."

"I already showered."

"You're ready to sleep already?" Fang Qin asked in surprise. Then, she revealed a meaningful smile as she asked in a hushed tone, "Am I interrupting something?"

Xu Chuanchuan's face heated up. Then, she snuck a glance behind her. Coincidentally, she saw Murong Shi leisurely walking over, and she couldn't help but panic.

Before she could get a closer look at Murong Shi's current expression, Xu Chuanchuan turned back to Fang Qin and rapidly said, "No, no. The room's too noisy. I'll help you ask if my little sister and Little Yan want to join you for supper."

When Murong Shi arrived at the door and saw Xu Chuanchuan's back disappearing into the distance, she let out a quiet sigh.

"Chuanchuan seems to be afraid of you. What's going on?" Fang Qin asked with interest.

Retracting her gaze from Xu Chuanchuan's back, Murong Shi said, "It's nothing. I was just messing with her."

Fang Qin thoughtfully looked at Murong Shi's overly refreshing attire. Then, she said, "I bet you were trying to eat her."

Murong Shi rolled her eyes at her friend. Then, she asked, "Why did you come knocking on my door at such a late hour?"

"The door opened on its own before I even knocked. Wanna go have some supper together?"

"No."

"Wah, what a terrible attitude," Fang Qin said, taking a step back. "Since neither of you two wants to eat, I'll be taking my leave."

After pondering for a moment, Murong Shi called out to Fang Qin, "I have something to ask you. Let's talk inside."

"What's with the mystery?" Fang Qin followed Murong Shi into the room and watched as Murong Shi carefully locked the door.

Murong Shi faced her back against the door and hesitated to speak.

After some time passed, Fang Qin grew impatient and urged, "Well? Out with it!"

Murong Shi hesitated for a while longer before firming her heart and saying, "She's been constantly refusing to let me touch her."

Murong Shi had spoken quite obscurely, so Fang Qin wasn't sure if she interpreted Murong Shi's correctly. "You mean...you two aren't getting along in that aspect?"

Murong Shi didn't know whether to laugh or cry about this situation. Gritting her teeth, she begrudgingly said, "We've never even done it before."

"...How long have you two been together?"

After a brief silence, Murong Shi said, "Less than two months."

"Have you kissed?"

"Is there even a need to ask?"

Widening her eyes, Fang Qin said, "You are already sharing the same bed, yet you two still haven't done it? I refuse to believe you can endure it."

In response, Murong Shi massaged her temples and said, "I already said it at the beginning. The problem lies on her side, not mine. She's afraid of me touching her."

"Are you sure she's afraid of you and not because of the pain?"

Murong Shi paused for a moment. Then, she said, "I don't know. I never asked her about it."

Fang Qin started biting on her fingernail because of her hunger. While chewing, she pondered and said, "Most women are afraid of their first time. It's a normal occurrence. So long as there is sufficient foreplay and you make sure she gradually relaxes, everything should be fine.

"But if she's afraid of you and doesn't want to do it with you…then this is a serious problem. She might not even like you to begin with."

Murong Shi: "..."

"However, looking at Chuanchuan's eyes, I can tell she likes you very much. So, I think her rejection of you is definitely because of the first reason." After impatiently patting Murong Shi on the shoulders, Fang Qin said, "Take your time educating her."

Murong Shi frowned and fell into deep thought.

"The problem is, do you know how to do that? You are, after all, a 26-year-old virgin."

"Scram."

When Fang Qin went to knock on the door of Little Yan and Xu Xiangxiang's room, the three people inside were having a merry conversation.

Before Fang Qin could even pose her question, Xu Xiangxiang took the initiative and said, "Little Yan and I will go have supper with you, Big Sis Fang Qin!"

"Awesome. Let's go, then. My treat."

Meanwhile, Xu Chuanchuan smiled and said, "You three go ahead. I won't be going."

"Do you want us to bring something back for you?" Fang Qin asked.

"No need."

"You should quickly return this shirt to Murong, lest she catches a cold tomorrow," Fang Qin said as she glanced at the shirt wrapped around Xu Chuanchuan's waist. Then, before leaving, she leaned into Xu Chuanchuan's ear and whispered, "We won't be disturbing you two from this point forward, so please feel free to enjoy your private time together."

Xu Chuanchuan: "..."

After the others left, Xu Chuanchuan returned to her room.

The room's door remained open just like the time Xu Chuanchuan ran away. Murong Shi still wore her camisole only, and she casually leaned against the door as she looked at Xu Chuanchuan walking back to the room.

Xu Chuanchuan felt both guilty and anxious. She also dared not look Murong Shi in the eye. However, as she couldn't bear the silence, she said, "Little Yan and Chuanchuan are staying next to singers, so it's also noisy over at their place. Though, their situation is much better than ours."

Murong Shi did not utter a word in response. Instead, she continued staring at Xu Chuanchuan, her eyes portraying none of her thoughts. Then, she suddenly extended a hand toward the shorter woman.

Xu Chuanchuan subconsciously stepped back, but Murong Shi stopped her by holding onto the two sleeves hanging in front of her chest.

After dragging Xu Chuanchuan into the room and closing the door, Murong Shi unraveled the two sleeves and took back her T-shirt. Then, she casually tossed the T-shirt onto the nearby sofa and expressionlessly said, "The shirt already got dirty, so why did you put it on?"

Xu Chuanchuan couldn't discern Murong Shi's thoughts, so she only responded with a fawning smile.

"Go change your clothes."

"Why?" Xu Chuanchuan asked, confused.

"I know you want to have supper as well. Let's go; I'll go with you."

…

The rain had stopped without anyone's notice. After Xu Chuanchuan and Murong Shi changed into their outdoor clothing and left the villa, they found Fang Qin and the others having an open-air barbecue by the beach.

With their location near the ocean, most of the food they ate naturally consisted of seafood. By virtue of their tardiness, Xu Chuanchuan and Murong Shi were able to start eating as soon as they arrived.

Although Murong Shi didn't bring up a word about the strip dance and Xu Chuanchuan's abrupt escape before, Xu Chuanchuan still felt rather guilty about it. So, knowing that Murong Shi liked eating prawns and shrimps, Xu Chuanchuan secretly shelled a grilled shrimp and fed it to Murong Shi.

Meanwhile, Murong Shi sent Xu Chuanchuan a glance before silently accepting the gesture.

After Xu Chuanchuan fed Murong Shi several times, Xu Xiangxiang, who noticed the situation, yelled out, "Am I seeing things?! Sis, you're actually feeding Big Sis Shishi!!!"

Xu Chuanchuan's hand trembled, and she inadvertently dropped the half-shelled shrimp onto the sandy beach. Then, pretending to be calm, she picked up another shrimp and said, "I can feed you as well."

Xu Xiangxiang felt that the scene just now looked very strange. However, before she could discern any further information, Xu Chuanchuan had stuffed a grilled shrimp into her mouth. A moment later, though, Xu Xiangxiang spat out the shrimp and said, "You didn't shell it!"

Meanwhile, Fang Qin and Little Yan felt a little suffocated as they watched this scene.

Then, poking fun at Xu Xiangxiang, Fang Qin said, "With how your elder sister treats you, Xiangxiang, I'm afraid you might be adopted."

"I think so as well," Xu Xiangxiang agreed. Fortunately, she had a crass personality, so she shelled the shrimp she spat out and ate it again.

After getting discovered, Xu Chuanchuan held back a little. Instead of feeding Murong Shi directly, she chose a few plump shrimps and placed them into Murong Shi's bowl. Then, she heard Little Yan saying, "Chuanchuan, I want a shrimp, too."

"Here's one, then."

Then, Little Yan spread out her oily hands and coquettishly said, "Peel it for me, please?"

"Fine, fine, fine, I'll shell it for you," Xu Chuanchuan said. Then, she shelled the shrimp and stuffed it into Little Yan's mouth.

Xu Xiangxiang immediately grew upset over the unfair treatment. "I want a shelled one also!"

Helpless, Xu Chuanchuan gave a shelled shrimp to Xu Xiangxiang as well.

"Me too," Fang Qin said.

Xu Chuanchuan: "..."
