Yu Na didn't want to play this unnutritious game with him anymore, so she just said angrily: "Can we kiss more passionately at night?"
Xiao Chen had wanted to tease her, but didn't expect her to be so direct.
Yu Na was even more shy from his laughter. She shook off his hand and walked away angrily, "I'm ignoring you!"
Xiao Chen caught up with her in three steps, his voice ambiguous, "Then you'd better be psychologically prepared."
Yu Na was so embarrassed that she didn't dare look back and walked straight ahead.
The cotton candy just now was a little too sweet. Yu Na was a little thirsty when they arrived at the convenience store entrance. She said, "I want water."
Xiao Chen smiled and held her hand as they walked into the convenience store.
Yu Na took a bottle of water from the shelf and glanced at the various exquisite candies, grabbing a few packs unabashedly.
Xiao Chen asked, "Do you want anything else?"
"No more."
After she finished speaking, she seemed to think of something. She shook his arm and said, "Do you want to buy some toiletries?"
"Don't you have them?"
"No... why would I prepare those things?"
Xiao Chen was very dissatisfied with this answer. "What do you mean, why prepare those things? Didn't you think your boyfriend would stay with you?"
"...Um," Yu Na was rendered speechless. "Then, let's go buy them now."
When they went to the aisle with toiletries and were choosing items, a young couple came in.
The young couple stood at the entrance of the aisle and picked up a small rectangular box.
The girl complained, "Next time I won't come with you! If you don't prepare in advance, just bear with it and don't touch me!"
The boy said, "Aren't you being too cruel? How can I just bear it? Do you want me to die?"
The girl: "Yes, you can!"
Xiao Chen and Yu Na stood not far away, and both of their ears gradually turned red.
They both knew what the little box over there was.
But they tacitly pretended not to see it and carefully selected their things. After the couple left, they continued forward.
When they got to that place, Yu Na shook Xiao Chen's arm again and awkwardly tried asking, "Were you also very frustrated enduring it every time?"
Xiao Chen: ?
He didn't expect her to ask this question. The answer was that during the two days on New Year's Day, he had faced tremendous trials every day.
Several times he had already reached his limit, but was afraid to scare her, so he endured it.
Those two days perfectly illustrated the meaning of "pain and pleasure."
He murmured softly, and quickly added, "Not that exaggerated."
After he answered, he saw Yu Na's hand hidden in her sleeve stretch out a little. Her slender, fair fingers reached to the shelf, wanting to grab that little box.
His expression changed. He covered her hand and lowered his head to gently call her name, "Na Na."
Yu Na pursed her lips for a moment, then looked up at him. She confessed wholeheartedly and solemnly, "Xiao Chen, I really, really like you."
Xiao Chen felt a little heat in his chest.
...
In the end, they went back to Yun Gulf Mansion first to get Xiao Chen's change of clothes.
Yu Na waited downstairs.
When they returned to Huating One, Xiao Chen took a shower first.
Yu Na anxiously sat on the sofa, listening to the sound of water flowing from the bathroom. She nervously swallowed.
After Xiao Chen came out, she didn't even greet him. Hugging her clothes, she ran past him into the bathroom with her head lowered.
When the sound of water stopped, it calmed her nervous mood a little.
But after taking a shower and blow drying her hair in front of the mirror, she belatedly realized that her face was as red as if it was congested.
She patted her face with her hand and told herself, calm down, calm down.
While telling herself this, she turned on the hair dryer.
After blow drying her hair and applying various skincare products and body lotion, Yu Na leaned against the bathroom door and listened carefully to the sounds outside.
She heard Xiao Chen open the refrigerator door.
That was it.
Yu Na leaned against the door with her hand on her chest. She took a deep breath, mentally prepared herself, before opening the bathroom door.
She didn't go back into the bathroom, but went to the dining room instead.
At this time, Xiao Chen was holding a bottle of mineral water. His demeanor was not as nervous as hers. He asked, "Done with your shower?"
Yu Na nodded.
Xiao Chen's hair was only half dry. He hadn't used a hair dryer and there were still beads of water on the ends.
He lazily leaned against the dining table. "Come here."
Yu Na's heart thumped wildly as she walked over to him.
Xiao Chen naturally put his arm around her waist and drew her into his embrace. Seeing that the girl in his arms was quiet, not saying a word, he also lowered his head to look at her directly. As he got closer to her, his breath and low, tempting voice pressed towards her. "It's not the first time we've hugged. Why is your face especially red today?"
"..."
Yu Na didn't answer and changed the subject. "Xiao Chen..."
"Hmm?"
"I put on new body lotion," she leaned closer to him and asked in a low voice, "Does it smell nice?"
With her hands on his shoulders, her warm breath pressed towards him.
A faint scent of roses lingered around them, seemingly possessing some magic power that made him unable to control himself anymore.
"It smells nice." Xiao Chen tilted his head and kissed her snow-white neck. "I really, really like it..."
Yu Na's grip on his shoulders suddenly tightened, as if responding in her own way.
Xiao Chen could no longer endure it. He picked her up in his arms and returned to the bedroom.
Yu Na was carried by him, her hands clasped tightly around his neck. She took the initiative to lift her head and kissed his cheek.
The big light in the bedroom was turned off, leaving only a small bedside lamp on.
The bedside lamp emitted a faint light. The room was suffused with a warm yellow glow, adding a hint of ambiguity.
Xiao Chen carefully placed Yu Na on the bed. "Na Na..."
Yu Na had already sunk into it, unwilling to part from him for even a second. When he put her on the soft bed, she stretched out her arms until his figure loomed over her.
She hugged his neck and responded to his passionate, intense kisses.
Yu Na felt her heart skip beats, out of control. Clusters of fireworks exploded in her chest.
With her eyes closed, she experienced emotions she had never had before. In the meantime, she seemed to hear the sound of something being torn open.
A crisp sound, an ordinary crisp sound.
But Yu Na's heart was tense to the extreme, as if sensing something was about to happen.
"Na Na..." He softly called her name.
She was already too powerless to respond. It was as if she was immersed in a dream, a dream she didn't want to wake up from, a dream she wanted to continue indefinitely.
But this slight pain told her this was not a dream, it was real.
Yu Na didn't dare make any move. She just passively accepted his love. She felt there wasn't even a tiny gap between their bodies. Her body, usually icy cold, was extremely hot at this moment, as if his temperature was pouring into her unstintingly, bit by bit.
The emotions in his eyes seemed about to completely devour her.
Her charming, beautiful eyes were misted over.
His breath surrounded her, his heavy breathing was in her ears, and her vision was filled by his figure.
Everything was him.
Everything was the person she had loved for several years.
Outside the window, the cold wind howled relentlessly, striking the window.
Inside was the scene of young people clinging tightly together. They kissed and embraced uninhibitedly, conveying the most direct feelings of love.
They were completely immersed in a world that could only accommodate the two of them.
Yet they were willing to huddle together like this for a lifetime, in this narrow space.
So this was what it felt like.
Being with the one you love, even at the closest distance, you would still be so reluctant, wishing it could be like this forever, never separating even for a moment.
...
Xiao Chen carried her into the bathroom to get cleaned up.
She collapsed limply into his arms and fell deeply asleep. Xiao Chen wasn't sleepy and looked at her for a long time.
He didn't fall asleep until dawn.
But the next day, he also woke up before Yu Na.
After washing up, he lay back down on the bed and looked at her again. The corners of his lips curved up involuntarily.
Even when sleeping, Yu Na's figure occupied his brief dreams.
Xiao Chen had fallen deeply in love, wanting to give her all the best things. He belonged to her completely.
Xiao Chen lowered his head and kissed her forehead, eyes, and nose.
When the kisses continued downward, the person in his arms slowly opened her eyes.
