Li Yang's lips twitched slightly at the embarrassed expression on Bo Lifen's face. It was a rare moment to see her like that, but more importantly—he was actually hoping that she'd ask him about that.
"... It wasn't that bad, I guess."
He muttered it in a way that made Bo Lifen's eyes flare up slightly. She didn't like his response, but she stifled her own reaction and just looked away. Who wasn't going to be disappointed by such a lacklustre answer?
That was telling in and of itself.
Li Yang didn't actually expect that she'd stay silent and only pout at his response. It was a childish response when she could simply express her distaste—so he cleared his throat.
"I'm more inclined to think that it's an unforgettable moment… that's what you wanted to hear, isn't it?"
Bo Lifen's gaze flickered to him and she pursed her lips at him. It was a silent 'duh' moment, but she eventually nodded. The woman scratched her head as she walked over towards the counter of the milk tea shop.
She fished out some keys from the cash register and threw him a look.
"Even if we did it on a whim—and I was still inexperienced back then, nobody wants to be regretted. And wasn't that the time that you started loosening up too? You were extremely fuss back then."
Well, she made a small point there. Li Yang wanted to relent to that as he stood up and threw his empty boba tea in one of the trash bins. He waited for her to make the move to the door and for them to take their leave.
"I'd say the same for you, Miss Lifen. But it seems like you've grown more relaxed—that's good to see."
Bo Lifen only leaned back against the counter, crossing her legs for a moment. She was probably aware that his gaze drew to her and she took it as the opportunity to talk, toying with the keys.
"...Naturally, we tend to loosen up as we age. We start relaxing as stressors and things that used to bother us, no longer do."
"For some people surely."
"Is Mister Li still stressed at his age? You're still a kid, huh?"
Bo Lifen's lips twitched into a teasing grin as she called him a child. The two of them were approximately just at the same age, give or take—but she really had started relaxing and stopped caring about what her relatives' deigned on her life.
"It's true that some circumstances change—but I still think it's far from over to start relaxing at thirty. At least in my scenario, but it's not childish. I sincerely doubt that anyone knows what they're doing at any age."
"Hearing you say something like that feels strangely liberating."
Li Yang watched her expression ease a little, a certain youth still visible in her gaze despite her stern demeanor. Until he eventually found himself remembering what he tried to ask earlier ago.
"You distracted me—but I think you never mentioned any regrets about what we did."
"Like I told you, I've started to relax and am not bothered by things that happen in life. I take things as they come and don't worry about events anymore. That time… I liked it. I wouldn't mind doing it all over again."
Bo Lifen rubbed the back of her neck. Contrary to her words, she still looked a little shy and embarrassed about it, she did not appear as unbothered and above it all as she tried to put herself.
However that was all he was waiting for.
Reading the atmosphere and signs in the air, this was the final confirmation that he wanted to hear from her. It was easy enough to look back on their time together fondly—but to anticipate another moment within one another's arms?
Li Yang stepped towards her without any hesitation this time.
The man's silhouette was carved by the moonlight, it dipped in from the translucent glass door as he stopped right in front of her. Bo Lifen looked up to him and chewed on her lip, gazing at his expression.
She dropped the keys, reached out to grab his tie and pulled her towards him.
Pressed between the counter and his body, Bo Lifen was stuck in between as he dipped his head and met her lips. The two of them quickly exchanged fervent and heated kisses. The taste of sugar still present in his tongue.
He snaked an arm around her waist and tugged her closer to him. A small sound of approval escaped her lips as his tongue slipped into her mouth.
Until she pulled away from him.
A trail of saliva dribbled slightly from the corner of her lips, and he looked at her confused—until she jerked a thumb at the back storage of the shop. There was a flush present in her face as she did it—but once she invited him, there was no turning back against it.
Bo Lifen moved away from him and stepped towards the front door to lock it. Once she was done with it, she motioned to the backroom. "There's more privacy at the storage area… it's a little cramped, but I'm not an exhibitionist."
Li Yang chuckled at that. "Alright, that's clear."
Their first time was brought on by a crazed and fervent fire that kept them tugging and pawing off each other's clothes to get on to their fucking. This time, despite the more conversation and interruptions—Li Yang was still pretty much interested in doing it with her.
… Except that she was sort of right.
It was a little hot, stuffy and cramped as she told him.
Shelves were filled with an assortment of containers and bags filled with what may or may not have been items meant to store ingredients for mixing milk tea and their containers. Bo Lifen was by the light switch and cleared her throat. "So, lights on or off?"
"You've never been that considerate before," he said with a chuckle.
"Oh come on, we did it in a car—and nearly in a park. There's not many options for lighting back then!" Bo Lifen flushed hard.
"I remember, naturally. But as for the question..." Li Yang shrugged. "The choice is up to you, either is fine with me."
"Lights on would be the most appropriate response—at least I can see your beautiful face, or something." Bo Lifen said, sounding a tad disappointed. "I mean, that's what people would say, right? Or I want to see your tits hanging in the air… not that you're going to see them."
Li Yang was quick to answer back with a brief smile. "I wouldn't want to do anything uncomfortable with you."
"Alright, let's just get back to kissing me and shutting my mouth." Bo Lifen spread her arms towards him, but averted her gaze shyly. Still reluctant to admit that she was saying this to him.
"With pleasure."
Despite the brief intercession of conversation, the two of them eventually just got back on with it. The heat inside of the stuffy small room was just the answer they needed—both started peeling off their clothes one by one.
Off came his tie.
He nibbled on her bottom lip.
Then came off the suit's jacket.
Bo Lifen ran her hands up his torso appreciatively, right before she found herself raising her hands up to throw off her blouse. Li Yang took the moment to appreciate her breasts still covered by her bra—slightly plain and actually looked like it was something she used frequently in her home.
While Bo Lifen hadn't exactly dreamed that she'd meet him up like this—the clothes she wore had got to go. Her top had flown off to one of the boxes and soon Bo Lifen found that Li Yang expertly took off her bra hook in just one go.
As a woman—she saved that piece of information for later, but the two of them were pretty much just making out and grinding each other at that point.
While it was kind of hard to rub against each other with her back against the shop's roughened walls, it didn't matter as things started to continue down their thorny and heated path.
Li Yang kissed around the crook of her neck, feeling her fingers raking through his hair and the eventual descent he found himself traveling. His hands grasped and squeezed each curvature of her hips and figure, exploring and just feeling the sensation of her skin on his.
After leaving kisses and touches all over her neck, he finally drifted to her chest area and grabbed them without hesitation. Encouraged by the soft and sudden moans that escaped her lips—he took one of her nipples in his mouth.
"Oh fuck, that's great."
Her knees rubbed against his crotch, but as they continued—her fingers finally found the button and hooked down his pants. She pressed and then rubbed her hand against the bulge across his boxers, feeling the heat that came off with it.
It may have been a little sudden once again, but they were doing it.
As far as both were concerned, the two were going all the way again. The way that Li Yang's mouth elicited breathy moans from Bo Lifen's lips were enticing and he appreciated all the way she tried to give him pleasure as well.
His boxers slid down as she finally grasped his cock with her bare fingers.
A soft hiss escaped his lips, temporarily breaking away to look at her face. Bo Lifen seemed caught in the moment of trying to pump him, but she seemed to have read his silent request. "Okay, let's switch positions."
