The first wonderful time ended in failure.
Afterwards, Bo Yan summed up lessons and experiences, feeling that he had been too gentle and soft-hearted. Seeing Jin Xi in pain, he couldn't bear to be ruthless, which made both of them very uncomfortable in the end.
That night, the two of them barely slept at all. Jin Xi cried countless times, her eyes bloodshot.
Bo Yan felt extremely distressed, holding her and whispering words of comfort, saying forget it, they could take it slowly. Not every man could get it right the first time.
This "taking it slowly" turned out to be prophetic, as the two of them tried for almost two months.
Bo Yan had extremely strong self-control. As soon as she said it hurt, he would stop immediately, no matter how uncomfortable he felt. He could always hit the brakes in time to ensure her comfort.
After several times, Jin Xi was also getting impatient. She simply gritted her teeth tightly without making a sound. Bo Yan kept asking if she was hurting or uncomfortable, and Jin Xi just shook her head, her face flushed, sweat beading on her forehead.
Seeing her like this, Bo Yan's guilt came back. Sweat dripped from the tip of his nose as he watched the motionless girl under him with distress.
"Jinxi, have you given up hope?"
"..."
She didn't want to talk.
Jin Xi had figured it out clearly. If she didn't grit her teeth and get through this hurdle, they really would be fighting a protracted war.
So that night, Jin Xi put Bo Yan underneath her.
It was the first time she had taken the initiative. Bo Yan looked at her with concern, asking from time to time:
"Baby, does it hurt?"
"Tell me if it hurts."
"Oh f*ck! It hurts! It hurts so much!"
"Ah! I'm going to break!"
"..."
But after yelling once, Bo Yan suddenly opened his eyes wide, his mind instantly blank.
Warmth.
That was his first feeling, endless warmth enveloping him, as if he had returned to his mother's womb where he could rest peacefully.
Then, he immediately sat up and naturally did what any man would do, madly, uncontrollably...
Afterwards, Bo Yan held Jin Xi and bathed her, very gently cleaning up the girl who couldn't walk.
He put her on the sofa, then neatly changed the sheets and tidied up the room. It was past two in the morning, and Jin Xi sprawled exhausted on the sofa, watching this man enthusiastically tidy up the room while humming a tune.
"They say online that men want to sleep after that. How can you be so...energetic?"
Bo Yan chuckled lightly. "Sleep? No way, not in this lifetime!"
After tidying up the room cleanly, Bo Yan carried Jin Xi and slipped under the covers, comfortably putting his arm around her waist and nestling his head against her neck, coquettishly asking for another round.
With her eyes closed, Jin Xi said listlessly, "Bo Yan, you're very happy, aren't you?"
"I've never been so happy before."
"Do you know how I feel?"
Bo Yan was of course very interested in Jin Xi's feelings. "Tell me."
"I just want to kick you off the bed." She struggled out of his embrace and moved to the edge of the bed, warning him, "Don't touch me!"
Bo Yan didn't force her. He turned over to lie on his back, pillowing his head with his arm, gazing at the ceiling, murmuring contentedly: "Wife."
"Get lost."
He fell asleep sweetly.
Of course Jin Xi was woken up by him in the middle of the night. He forced his way in, refusing to leave even when chased away, and went mad once more in her half-awake state.
Things like this naturally had a gradual process, just like the relationship between two people needing a long period of running-in before their bodies achieved optimal tacit understanding.
At first, Jin Xi would feel very uncomfortable physically, thinking that movies were lies. She truly admired those female leads, such good actors!
But slowly...with Bo Yan's tireless exploration, Jin Xi's body was like a budding flower, suddenly blooming fully one quiet night. She also began to acquire a taste for pleasure, understanding some truths about happiness.
Jin Xi had always been the oblivious type. Just like their feelings, it took her almost half a year before she suddenly realized what a good man Bo Yan beside her was.
**
After graduating, Bo Yan smoothly entered the SWAT team. Because his assessment results were excellent, he was valued after joining. The commanding officer was his father's friend, so he paid special attention to Bo Yan and assigned all important tasks to him.
Taking on major criminal cases gave Bo Yan opportunities to accomplish things. His performance was impressive. In just half a year, he was promoted to become captain of the SWAT team.
Jin Xi had always felt that with Bo Yan's abilities, he could achieve results wherever he went. Her "Monkey King" was no ordinary person. His brilliance could not be concealed. No matter how deeply he was hidden, people would see him.
Bo Yan's outstanding abilities were recognized, but he also had many issues that troubled his superiors. First, he disliked business trips, especially major criminal cases that required traveling for months across provinces. When assigned those, he refused to go no matter what.
Second, he had to go home for meals every day. This was Bo Yan's principle. No matter how busy work was, he had to go home for dinner. Even if he couldn't eat, he still had to go home at night.
Sometimes the chief would meet Elder Bo and complain about how without the shackles of family at such a young age, Bo Yan could have flown freely wherever he wished. The boy had limitless potential.
Elder Bo just smiled. "What flying freely wherever? If he didn't have a wife at home controlling him, who knows what other troubles he would get into."
Jokes aside, Elder Bo understood that for Bo Yan, family was not a shackle but a harbor.
His growth had been too lonely. He didn't stay for Jin Xi, but Jin Xi stayed with him.
Jin Xi and Chu Zhao entered No. 1 Middle School as student teachers, officially becoming intern Chinese teachers.
The intern work was much tougher than being a student. Not only did they have to sit in classes and take notes, they had to help the teacher grade assignments and even prepare teaching PPTs.
Seeing these two pitiful young girls still grading papers late into the night in the office, the other Chinese teacher interns felt it was unfair.
When Jin Xi got home, it was already ten at night.
Bo Yan stood properly at the door wearing light gray casual home clothes, a warm smile on his face welcoming her.
"Ding, your 2.0 robot butler is on standby, ready to satisfy the master's every need."
Jin Xi collapsed directly into Bo Yan's arms. Bo Yan reached out and embraced her fully.
"Baby, I'm so tired."
Bo Yan cupped her little butt and picked her up like carrying a daughter. Jin Xi naturally straddled his waist, resting her chin on his shoulder and closing her eyes.
"When I was in high school, I never saw Chinese teachers as tired as you, looking like a damn dog. What are you doing every day, drilling holes?"
"I'd rather go drill dog holes, definitely more relaxing than now." Jin Xi sighed limply, "No. 1 Middle School is a key provincial school. Can it compare with your school?"
"You look down on me now?" Bo Yan raised his brows with a smile. "I happen to be an outstanding alumnus of No. 1 Middle School. Teacher Jin, do you have any instructions?"
"Oh, you went to No. 1?"
"Yeah."
"Then do you know Jiang Ru, the teacher supervising me?"
"Don't know her, probably new. But I know Qin Zheng, who was my homeroom teacher back then."
"Oh, Teacher Qin Zheng is Dean of Studies now."
"It's been so many years already."
After chatting with Bo Yan for a while, Jin Xi felt much less tired. Bo Yan still hadn’t let go of her, walking around the living room while hugging her, going around and around...
"Hey, what are you doing? Put me down."
"Robot butler 2.0, provides comprehensive services of chatting, hugging and kissing. You need to give me a kiss to unlock the next service." He rubbed his nose against hers: "How about a kiss to unlock the next service?"
"Childish." Jin Xi laughed and kissed his lower lip lightly: "There, what's the next service?"
"Massage."
Bo Yan gently put her down on the sofa, using a pillow to cushion her head. His powerful fingers started kneading at the spot on her back along her spine.
Jin Xi closed her eyes and enjoyed the high-quality service provided by her personal butler.
Bo Yan was a very playful and humorous man who understood romance. Living with him, Jin Xi felt very happy. He always had ways to make her laugh, coming up with something new every day.
Jin Xi used to think that the feelings of parting and death were the most poignant in romantic love, so she envied the life and death torment between the main characters in TV dramas.
But now, Jin Xi wouldn't envy others anymore.
All the fiery passions would be diluted over the long decades of life ahead. Mundanity was the essence of life.
The boy she chose perhaps didn't have the lofty ambition to make achievements far from home, but his heart was full of warmth, enough to warm her remaining years.
"Ah~ Hurts, hurts, hurts, hurts!"
"Don't, don't stop."
"Keep going, just like before, feels so good~"
Bo Yan pressed her neck and said helplessly: "So does it hurt or feel good?"
"Hurts, but feels really good too."
He continued to relax her body, controlling his strength well, massaging her and making her yelp.
"Feels so nice~"
"Use more force."
"Ah~~"
Bo Yan suddenly stopped.
"Why did you stop?" Jin Xi looked back at him puzzled.
With a face full of innocence, beaming with sunshine, he smiled and said, "Wife, you got me ying."
