_{I stared at him, the recollection of Qing Yichu's provocative words earlier playing back my mind. So pulling his hand, I reached out to embrace his neck, kissing him, where the lead was taken by me and my demand was strong.}

I stared at him, the recollection of Qing Yichu's provocative words earlier playing back my mind. So pulling his hand, I reached out to embrace his neck, kissing him, where the lead was taken by me and my demand was strong. At first, Xiao Huaisu was stunned, but not long afterwards, he quickly reacted to me and my initiative was gradually snatched away. The kiss was not the same as our usually long and gentle ones, the possessiveness and desire within it clear.

_{With a surprised face, I stared at the bookshelf behind him, and like this he easily stripped off my clothes.}
"A little sister is also good too." After saying this, Li You added, "Yeah, it'd be better to have a little sister. Boys are way too naughty and girls are good. A little sister would also be much cuter than a little brother."

With a surprised face, I stared at the bookshelf behind him, and like this he easily stripped off my clothes.

_{I seduced him at noon, so it was only natural I would now have to pay the bill.}
I still have a lot of things to think about.

I seduced him at noon, so it was only natural I would now have to pay the bill.

_{The point of sharing a meal was to put one's acting skills on full display. So having seen Qing Yichu return to his friendly nature when he had first met me, I choked back my vomit and disdain then put on an especially cheerful smile. {Do you think you are the only one with good acting skills? Big brother's acting skills have long achieved peak perfection, you know?}}Lian Youyi's brother was named Lian Youshu, while his daughter was named Lian Yiting. His son carried the surname of his partner, so he was called Qing Yichu. When I went to Xiao Huaisu's uncle's house for the second time, there were four members of the Lian family there. Lian Yiting was next to Lian Youyi chatting away happily, Lian Youshu was speaking with Xiao Renzong, and Lian Youshu's partner was talking with his son, Qing Yichu. The atmosphere was joyful, and when they noticed we had entered, all there gazes turned our way.

_{He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"}Turning to her, I replied: "It's because this dish is just so delicious."

He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"

_{After taking a seat in a rocking chair near the back door, I kicked it off, planning to catch a few z's for a while. But then I heard the sound of footsteps approaching from inside, causing my eyes to open in time to see the just inside Qing Yichu who too came out here to entertain himself and took a seat beside me.}
So I made up an excuse then said: "Both of your dads are busy with a lot of stuff right now, so if we have another kid, who's going to raise it?"

But then I heard the sound of footsteps approaching from inside, causing my eyes to open in time to see the just inside Qing Yichu who too came out here to entertain himself and took a seat beside me.

_{We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.}"The chef we invited here is from China and they're proficient in many cooking styles. The dish you're eating right now just happens to be their best one. It's no wonder you like it so much." Lian Youyi gave me a nod, indicating I could eat more if I so wish.

We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.

_{The hands I used to support myself on the table rose with great effort, opening his unruly hands, as I growled to him: "Don't do that here, dammit."}
After I spoke, Li You stopped, making me think she had given up the idea but instead she suddenly chimed: "Both my grandmas and grandpas have a lot of free time! They don't have to go to work, right? They'll definitely have time."

The hands I used to support myself on the table rose with great effort, opening his unruly hands, as I growled to him: "Don't do that here, dammit."

_{My practice was going rather well, but when he said this, my hand stalled, causing a drop of ink to stain the rice paper. Looking at the drop of ink, I hesitated on whether I should help that guy make an indirect confession.}While he embraced me, we stood up and I pressed him against the wall, biting his neck but he used his hand to stop me, saying: "We still have to go eat in a little while, don't make trouble."

My practice was going rather well, but when he said this, my hand stalled, causing a drop of ink to stain the rice paper. Looking at the drop of ink, I hesitated on whether I should help that guy make an indirect confession.

_{I also gave her a nod as I greeted her, saying: "Nice to meet you, Yiting."}Xiao Huaisu gave a shallow laugh, saying: "Sorry. It's just that when you're mad like this, I can't seem to help myself."

I also gave her a nod as I greeted her, saying: "Nice to meet you, Yiting."

_{"Why would I think my self to be inadequate? I'm not sick."}
You really are something else.

"Why would I think my self to be inadequate? I'm not sick."

_{But he kept going without a care, so I pushed against his shoulder, angry from embarrassment: "What will we do if someone walks in?" After saying this, I looked at the door, afraid someone would come out of nowhere push it open and walk in. I didn't want to lose face in a foreign country.}The point of sharing a meal was to put one's acting skills on full display.

_{I smiled: Finding fault, are we? Big brother is bored, at the moment, so...}
"After a couple of years, your dads won't be as busy, alright? After all, it does take time to make a baby. This will delay things for a while."

I smiled: Finding fault, are we? Big brother is bored, at the moment, so...

_{"It's alright. The meal was delicious so it wasn't to bad. Besides, he is an elder and there's a generation gap between elders and youths. It's perfectly normal for us to not say much." I said tactfully to indicate to her it was alright.}
Li You was clearly not that happy after hearing this, replying dejectedly: "Okay..."

"It's alright. The meal was delicious so it wasn't to bad. Besides, he is an elder and there's a generation gap between elders and youths. It's perfectly normal for us to not say much." I said tactfully to indicate to her it was alright.

_{Qing Yichu probably never expected me, a guest, to launch a counterattack so directly and was obviously a bit surprised. Afterwards, he knotted his brows as he spat back: "Vulgar and rude."}Following their departure, Xiao Huaisu and I stayed for a moment longer before also getting up and taking our leave.

Qing Yichu probably never expected me, a guest, to launch a counterattack so directly and was obviously a bit surprised. Afterwards, he knotted his brows as he spat back: "Vulgar and rude."

_{In the middle of it, I remembered he didn't put on a condom, so reaching behind me I said: "You're not wearing any!"}However, he replied: "They won't. I already locked when I came in earlier."

In the middle of it, I remembered he didn't put on a condom, so reaching behind me I said: "You're not wearing any!"

_{But thinking that such an outstanding man belonged to me, and the person he liked was me, is actually cool.}
Lian Youyi's brother was named Lian Youshu, while his daughter was named Lian Yiting. His son carried the surname of his partner, so he was called Qing Yichu. When I went to Xiao Huaisu's uncle's house for the second time, there were four members of the Lian family there.

But thinking that such an outstanding man belonged to me, and the person he liked was me, is actually cool.

_{While standing, facing me, he began tidying his messed up clothing. His eyes was fixed on me, as if it were an x-ray, not at all disguising his need to ravish me along with his restraint. After finally closing his eyes, once he was finished cleaning himself up, Xiao Huaisu returned to his reserved and wise self.}So I made up an excuse then said: "Both of your dads are busy with a lot of stuff right now, so if we have another kid, who's going to raise it?"

After finally closing his eyes, once he was finished cleaning himself up, Xiao Huaisu returned to his reserved and wise self.

_{"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."}Letting out a snort, I added: "You were smart back then and didn't pay much attention to him. Otherwise, I would've skinned you when we got back."

"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."

_{To which I replied: "Her grandmother wanted to take out to have some fun, so we couldn't being her along."}
We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.

To which I replied: "Her grandmother wanted to take out to have some fun, so we couldn't being her along."

_{"The chef we invited here is from China and they're proficient in many cooking styles. The dish you're eating right now just happens to be their best one. It's no wonder you like it so much." Lian Youyi gave me a nod, indicating I could eat more if I so wish.}
Lian Youyi waved me over to ask: "Youyou didn't come with you guys?"

"The chef we invited here is from China and they're proficient in many cooking styles. The dish you're eating right now just happens to be their best one. It's no wonder you like it so much." Lian Youyi gave me a nod, indicating I could eat more if I so wish.

_{"Does this feel better?"}
Lian Youyi nodded, in understanding, then introduced me to her brother and his family: "This is Xiao Huaisu's partner, Li Tian. They took advantage of it being the summer vacation to bring their kid over for some fun."

"Does this feel better?"

_{Before we left, however, Lian Youyi patted me on the shoulder and said to comfort me: "I originally wanted to have you guys to talk to each other more, but Youyu is cold by nature, so it appears you to didn't get to say anything to one another."}
Lian Yiting looked at Xiao Huaisu, rose to her feet, greeting him with a smile as she said: "Huaisu-ge" the relationship between them clearly close. After this, she looked at me curiously, then haven hear her aunt's words, followed in suit as as she said to me: "Hi, Li Tian-ge. I'm Lian Yiting."

Before we left, however, Lian Youyi patted me on the shoulder and said to comfort me: "I originally wanted to have you guys to talk to each other more, but Youyu is cold by nature, so it appears you to didn't get to say anything to one another."

_{"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."}"I figured you wouldn't be able to grin and bear it." Xiao Huaisu didn't seem to be surprised by this at all, chuckling as he added: "Well, no wonder he kept talking with me over and over back then. Was that him fighting back?"

"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."

_"Ahhh——"
I also gave her a nod as I greeted her, saying: "Nice to meet you, Yiting."

"Ahhh——"

_{"Does this feel better?"}"It's nice to meet you a well."

"Does this feel better?"

_{Xiao Huaisu stopped too, but we were at the point of no return and I figured we won't go running there to get some and bring it back. He didn't say anything, his body continued without any sign of pausing before he whispered: "Why don't we let nature take its course today... what's coming can't be stopped."}
After the sister took the initiative to greet me, her brother, Qing Yichu, also rose to do the same.

Xiao Huaisu stopped too, but we were at the point of no return and I figured we won't go running there to get some and bring it back. He didn't say anything, his body continued without any sign of pausing before he whispered: "Why don't we let nature take its course today... what's coming can't be stopped."

_{So I replied: "Because I'm cute."}She said it wasn't easy to conceive, so I'll trust her word as a doctor for once.

So I replied: "Because I'm cute."

_{"The chef we invited here is from China and they're proficient in many cooking styles. The dish you're eating right now just happens to be their best one. It's no wonder you like it so much." Lian Youyi gave me a nod, indicating I could eat more if I so wish.}The look on his face was not a kind one, his face looked as though I had owed him money so I again sealed my eyes shut.

_{While tidying my clothes he asked me: "What happened? Did Yichu provoke you?"}
"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."

While tidying my clothes he asked me: "What happened? Did Yichu provoke you?"

_{Maybe it was due to him noticing his son's rather strange reaction, because Qing Youyu, following Qing Yichu's gaze, found his own directed at me. I sent him a smile, and he gave me a nod. After which, I dropped my gaze, ignoring Qing Yichu, turning my full attention on my meal.}

_"You—"When Xia Huaisu passed me a serving of a dish, I looked over to Qing Yichu, who took advantage of everyone's attention being elsewhere to send me a contemptuous smile. So, in turn, I sent him back a grin as well while picking up the dish Xiao Huaisu plated for me to stuff my mouth as I chewed and chewed with relish. Want some?

"You—"

_{Seeing him deliberately guiding me because he wanted to see me embarrassed, I clenched my teeth to prevent a sound from coming out. He smirked when he saw this, reaching his arms below my own to fondle my chest. The scene made me look directly at the mirror, the image within it was obscenely debauched. I no longer turned my head to see my seductive and clearly shame-filled appearance.}After taking a seat in a rocking chair near the back door, I kicked it off, planning to catch a few z's for a while. But then I heard the sound of footsteps approaching from inside, causing my eyes to open in time to see the just inside Qing Yichu who too came out here to entertain himself and took a seat beside me.

He smirked when he saw this, reaching his arms below my own to fondle my chest. The scene made me look directly at the mirror, the image within it was obscenely debauched. I no longer turned my head to see my seductive and clearly shame-filled appearance.

_{Xiao Huaisu obviously didn't believe my blatant lies, but noticing I said nothing more, he no longer asked any questions. When he was done, he held my hand waling me inside, saying: "Let's go, we'll be eating soon. He's just a kid, by the way, so whatever is wrong with him is not something deserving of your attention. Anyhow, this is just a side you'll be seeing, nothing more."}
Following this simple greeting between us of the same generation, I greeted Lian Youshu and his partner with Xiao Huaisu before we both took a seat.

Xiao Huaisu obviously didn't believe my blatant lies, but noticing I said nothing more, he no longer asked any questions. When he was done, he held my hand waling me inside, saying: "Let's go, we'll be eating soon. He's just a kid, by the way, so whatever is wrong with him is not something deserving of your attention. Anyhow, this is just a side you'll be seeing, nothing more."

_{Seeing him so mad, my smile became even more brilliant.}Without any semblance of care I responded: "He, right now right here, at least belongs to me. So you... you can just keep looking on from the sidelines, 'kay?" Without looking,I waved him away, not bothering to see him out.

Seeing him so mad, my smile became even more brilliant.

_{Qing Yichu's retreating figure froze, his head turning to look at me, saying: "Do you think everything will be alright just because the two of you got hitched? Your identities and stations are too different, and your circles are not the same. The longer you both live together, the more problems there will be, so I'll just see if you'll still be able to laugh about it then."}I smiled: Finding fault, are we? Big brother is bored, at the moment, so...

Qing Yichu's retreating figure froze, his head turning to look at me, saying: "Do you think everything will be alright just because the two of you got hitched?

The longer you both live together, the more problems there will be, so I'll just see if you'll still be able to laugh about it then."

_{"He didn't provoke me, I just noticed he was so cute, I got all jealous."}
Lian Youshu looked at me, revealing a smile, his temperament gentle as he shared a few words with me before moving to carry on a conversation about business matters with Xiao Huaisu. The also chatted about some people and things I had no understanding of, while Xiao Renzong chimed in a sentence or two from time to time.

"He didn't provoke me, I just noticed he was so cute, I got all jealous."

_{Having noticed this rather giddy smile of mine, Lian Youyi chuckled as she asked: "What's got you so delighted?"}"The chef we invited here is from China and they're proficient in many cooking styles. The dish you're eating right now just happens to be their best one. It's no wonder you like it so much." Lian Youyi gave me a nod, indicating I could eat more if I so wish.

After finally closing his eyes, once he was finished cleaning himself up, Xiao Huaisu returned to his reserved and wise self.}
Sitting opposite me was Qing Youyu, whose disposition was rather frosty to the contrary. Although we were members of the same clan so to speak, neither of us were friendly to the other. He was cold, and I wasn't in the mood to go sticking my warm cheek to his frigid аss either. So I took no initiative to reach out to him first. Lian Youyi was busy discussing paintings with her niece, Lian Yiting, so I bent over and picked up a book from the table, and casually flipped through it. Even though it was a book about ink paintings, I suddenly got the feeling it could be useful to kill time during all those boring conversations. There were pictures inside them at the very least, looking at them wasn't so bad either.

While standing, facing me, he began tidying his messed up clothing. His eyes was fixed on me, as if it were an x-ray, not at all disguising his need to ravish me along with his restraint. After finally closing his eyes, once he was finished cleaning himself up, Xiao Huaisu returned to his reserved and wise self.

_{Lian Yiting looked at Xiao Huaisu, rose to her feet, greeting him with a smile as she said: "Huaisu-ge" the relationship between them clearly close. After this, she looked at me curiously, then haven hear her aunt's words, followed in suit as as she said to me: "Hi, Li Tian-ge. I'm Lian Yiting."}
At some point I got up and left for the wash room, then after I was done I came out to see the other end of the corridor led to a garden out back. I figured since everyone was chatting with each other happily, I might as well go sit there and get some fresh air.

Lian Yiting looked at Xiao Huaisu, rose to her feet, greeting him with a smile as she said: "Huaisu-ge" the relationship between them clearly close. After this, she looked at me curiously, then haven hear her aunt's words, followed in suit as as she said to me: "Hi, Li Tian-ge. I'm Lian Yiting."

_{After a while, the swaying of the rocking chair caused sleep to gradually hit me. In a state between wake and sleep, I secretly felt that for outstanding men and women, there will always be no shortage of suitors. Suitors who would not give a damn if that man or woman was married or not in their pursuit.}When Xia Huaisu passed me a serving of a dish, I looked over to Qing Yichu, who took advantage of everyone's attention being elsewhere to send me a contemptuous smile.

_{Turning to her, I replied: "It's because this dish is just so delicious."}

But then I heard the sound of footsteps approaching from inside, causing my eyes to open in time to see the just inside Qing Yichu who too came out here to entertain himself and took a seat beside me.

Turning to her, I replied: "It's because this dish is just so delicious."

_{While I was sucking and groping his chest, his other hand was also fondling my waist. Because of him making me react, I felt as though I couldn't stand it any longer. But just as I was about to break away from him, he flipped me and pressed me against the wall.}
When we met, his smile was superficial, and now there was no expression to be seen. His eyes swept over me from head to toe before he stood in the gap between us.

While I was sucking and groping his chest, his other hand was also fondling my waist. Because of him making me react, I felt as though I couldn't stand it any longer. But just as I was about to break away from him, he flipped me and pressed me against the wall.

_{"My apologies, then. I may be no match for him, but just like this he does fancy me." My eyes opened once more and I fought back with no fear or a shred of mercy.}So I made up an excuse then said: "Both of your dads are busy with a lot of stuff right now, so if we have another kid, who's going to raise it?"

"My apologies, then. I may be no match for him, but just like this he does fancy me." My eyes opened once more and I fought back with no fear or a shred of mercy.

_{"A little sister is also good too." After saying this, Li You added, "Yeah, it'd be better to have a little sister. Boys are way too naughty and girls are good. A little sister would also be much cuter than a little brother."}

_{As if nothing had happened, I chatted with everyone normally then entered the dinning room for our meal. Before the meal was served, I sat beside Xiao Huaisu and spoke quietly with Xiao Huaisu. Then after the meal was served, nothing else was said and we silently ate our meal.}He obviously knew we also had a group of people we needed to face, so while tightly clinging to my body, his lower jaw leaned near my shoulder as he gasped for breath a few times. His repression along with his dissatisfaction could be sensed, as he chided in a slow, solemn tone: "You naughty thing—" Letting out a laugh, I hugged him, replying: "Who told you to fall for a naughty thing, then?" Accept it.

His lower half was pressed up against mine. I wan' the only one who had a reaction, he reacted as well, but with an awkward look, I replied to him: "For the sake of not being embarrassed while we eat in a little while... It'd be better to for us to return and continue tonight."

_{So I made up an excuse then said: "Both of your dads are busy with a lot of stuff right now, so if we have another kid, who's going to raise it?"}
Looking down at me with condescension, his frosty voice sounded from beside me: "There seems to be nothing at all about you to capture anyone's interest. Which part of you is worthy to be a match for Huaisu-ge?"

So I made up an excuse then said: "Both of your dads are busy with a lot of stuff right now, so if we have another kid, who's going to raise it?"

_{Following their departure, Xiao Huaisu and I stayed for a moment longer before also getting up and taking our leave.}
I smiled: Finding fault, are we? Big brother is bored, at the moment, so...

_{Once we made it back, it was time for the midday break, so Xiao Huaisu sat on the sofa n the study reading a book, while I stood at the desk practising my calligraphy.}
In reply I laughed, saying: "And the words you speak are oh so polite." Don't you realise I'm a guest?

Once we made it back, it was time for the midday break, so Xiao Huaisu sat on the sofa n the study reading a book, while I stood at the desk practising my calligraphy.

_{Lian Youyi's brother was named Lian Youshu, while his daughter was named Lian Yiting. His son carried the surname of his partner, so he was called Qing Yichu.}
Qing Yichu was so mad his face turned blue: "Does Huaisu-ge also know about your true face? Just a moment ago in the living room, you pretended to be refined, but you actually don't possess on bit of rules for proper etiquette."

Lian Youyi's brother was named Lian Youshu, while his daughter was named Lian Yiting. His son carried the surname of his partner, so he was called Qing Yichu. When I went to Xiao Huaisu's uncle's house for the second time, there were four members of the Lian family there. Lian Yiting was next to Lian Youyi chatting away happily, Lian Youshu was speaking with Xiao Renzong, and Lian Youshu's partner was talking with his son, Qing Yichu. The atmosphere was joyful, and when they noticed we had entered, all there gazes turned our way.

_{"My apologies, then. I may be no match for him, but just like this he does fancy me." My eyes opened once more and I fought back with no fear or a shred of mercy.}
Lian Youyi did once say that when she had married Xiao Renzong, the Xiao family had a lot of rules and she had failed to have gotten used to them in the beginning. She had studied quite hard, making it obvious the Lian family didn't have many rules in the past. So what family customs is this Qing Yichu pretending to have?

"My apologies, then. I may be no match for him, but just like this he does fancy me." My eyes opened once more and I fought back with no fear or a shred of mercy.

_{Qing Yichu stared at me, folding his arms as he added: "Huaisu-ge deserves someone who is much better. Even though you have known each other from a long time ago, it in no way means you are someone that's an appropriate choice. Don't you think you're rather inadequate?"}
Prompting me to deliberately say: "If I know or not, so what? I'm happy and that's good enough."

Qing Yichu stared at me, folding his arms as he added: "Huaisu-ge deserves someone who is much better. Even though you have known each other from a long time ago, it in no way means you are someone that's an appropriate choice. Don't you think you're rather inadequate?"

_{However, he replied: "They won't. I already locked when I came in earlier."}
Qing Yichu suddenly recovered himself, calmly taking a seat on the chair opposite me, saying: "You are not worthy of Huaisu-ge. How could my uncle accept you so easily?" It seemed there was a bit of confusion in his words.

However, he replied: "They won't. I already locked when I came in earlier."

_{When Xia Huaisu passed me a serving of a dish, I looked over to Qing Yichu, who took advantage of everyone's attention being elsewhere to send me a contemptuous smile. So, in turn, I sent him back a grin as well while picking up the dish Xiao Huaisu plated for me to stuff my mouth as I chewed and chewed with relish. {Want some?}}"Good... keep going."

_{Seeing him deliberately guiding me because he wanted to see me embarrassed, I clenched my teeth to prevent a sound from coming out. He smirked when he saw this, reaching his arms below my own to fondle my chest. The scene made me look directly at the mirror, the image within it was obscenely debauched. I no longer turned my head to see my seductive and clearly shame-filled appearance.}
So I replied: "Because I'm cute."

I no longer turned my head to see my seductive and clearly shame-filled appearance.

_{Qing Yichu's retreating figure froze, his head turning to look at me, saying: "Do you think everything will be alright just because the two of you got hitched? Your identities and stations are too different, and your circles are not the same. The longer you both live together, the more problems there will be, so I'll just see if you'll still be able to laugh about it then."}I concentrated, not overthinking as I was planning to study it hard, but instead he stopped all of a sudden, pressing close to my face before kissing me.

_{Qing Yichu was so mad his face turned blue: "Does Huaisu-ge also know about your true face? Just a moment ago in the living room, you pretended to be refined, but you actually don't possess on bit of rules for proper etiquette."}
Qing Yichu stared at me, folding his arms as he added: "Huaisu-ge deserves someone who is much better. Even though you have known each other from a long time ago, it in no way means you are someone that's an appropriate choice. Don't you think you're rather inadequate?"

Qing Yichu was so mad his face turned blue: "Does Huaisu-ge also know about your true face? Just a moment ago in the living room, you pretended to be refined, but you actually don't possess on bit of rules for proper etiquette."

_{Qing Yichu probably never expected me, a guest, to launch a counterattack so directly and was obviously a bit surprised. Afterwards, he knotted his brows as he spat back: "Vulgar and rude."}
"Why would I think my self to be inadequate? I'm not sick."

Qing Yichu probably never expected me, a guest, to launch a counterattack so directly and was obviously a bit surprised. Afterwards, he knotted his brows as he spat back: "Vulgar and rude."

_{I still have a lot of things to think about.}
Again and again, I gave one impolite response after another, causing Qing Yichu to be very dissatisfied. Seeing his provocations having no affect on me, and both his oil and salt missed, he stood up dejectedly, intending to return inside.

I still have a lot of things to think about.

_{Without saying a word, I turned to look at him, asking: "Are you serious?" {I actually thought you were going to correct me...}}Letting out a snort, I added: "You were smart back then and didn't pay much attention to him. Otherwise, I would've skinned you when we got back."

Without saying a word, I turned to look at him, asking: "Are you serious?" I actually thought you were going to correct me...

_{At some point I got up and left for the wash room, then after I was done I came out to see the other end of the corridor led to a garden out back. I figured since everyone was chatting with each other happily, I might as well go sit there and get some fresh air.}
But I ruthlessly thrust my knife with my next words: "Seeing the person you like with someone you don't like must be very hard to savour, doesn't it?" Don't blame my sharp tongue when you were the one looking to find fault with me first.

Which part of you is worthy to be a match for Huaisu-ge?"

Having noticed this rather giddy smile of mine, Lian Youyi chuckled as she asked: "What's got you so delighted?"

_{"It's nice to meet you a well."}
Qing Yichu's retreating figure froze, his head turning to look at me, saying: "Do you think everything will be alright just because the two of you got hitched?

The longer you both live together, the more problems there will be, so I'll just see if you'll still be able to laugh about it then."

"It's nice to meet you a well."

_{Without any semblance of care I responded: "He, right now right here, at least belongs to me. So you... you can just keep looking on from the sidelines, 'kay?" Without looking,I waved him away, not bothering to see him out.}

_{Qing Yichu's face was livid, but he seemed to be afraid his abnormal expression would be noticed, so he picked up his juice and drank it slowly.}While he embraced me, we stood up and I pressed him against the wall, biting his neck but he used his hand to stop me, saying: "We still have to go eat in a little while, don't make trouble."

Qing Yichu's face was livid, but he seemed to be afraid his abnormal expression would be noticed, so he picked up his juice and drank it slowly.

_{I hesitated for a while, but then I remembered what the doctor told me before and comforted myself. Anyhow, it's not like I'll hit the jackpot after doing it just once again, right?}
After a while, the swaying of the rocking chair caused sleep to gradually hit me. In a state between wake and sleep, I secretly felt that for outstanding men and women, there will always be no shortage of suitors. Suitors who would not give a damn if that man or woman was married or not in their pursuit.

But thinking that such an outstanding man belonged to me, and the person he liked was me, is actually cool.

_{My face was burning hot. I looked at my face in the mirror, my face was flushed, and my eyelashes were soaked, to the point where it looked as if I had cried. From behind me, Xiao Huaisu looked at me in the mirror as well, seducing me, coaxing me, saying: "Just let it out, don't be afraid..." right as he gave a fierce thrust, catching me by surprise and making me cry out.}
Really cool.

_{You really are something else.}
Just as I was about to drift off, I felt a familiar breath leaning over me. Opening my eyes, I felt a bit lazy, not wanting to move, and he reached out to to stroke my hair as he asked: "Why didn't you go take a nap in one of the rooms?"

You really are something else.

_{Seeing him deliberately guiding me because he wanted to see me embarrassed, I clenched my teeth to prevent a sound from coming out.

I no longer turned my head to see my seductive and clearly shame-filled appearance.}I stared at him, the recollection of Qing Yichu's provocative words earlier playing back my mind. So pulling his hand, I reached out to embrace his neck, kissing him, where the lead was taken by me and my demand was strong. At first, Xiao Huaisu was stunned, but not long afterwards, he quickly reacted to me and my initiative was gradually snatched away. The kiss was not the same as our usually long and gentle ones, the possessiveness and desire within it clear.

_{Lian Youyi nodded, in understanding, then introduced me to her brother and his family: "This is Xiao Huaisu's partner, Li Tian. They took advantage of it being the summer vacation to bring their kid over for some fun."}Once we made it back, it was time for the midday break, so Xiao Huaisu sat on the sofa n the study reading a book, while I stood at the desk practising my calligraphy.

Yichu... He said his name so affectionately I snorted before rolling my eyes while replying: "Are you two close?"

_{Xiao Huaisu gave a shallow laugh, saying: "Sorry. It's just that when you're mad like this, I can't seem to help myself."}
While he embraced me, we stood up and I pressed him against the wall, biting his neck but he used his hand to stop me, saying: "We still have to go eat in a little while, don't make trouble."

_{"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."}
After telling me to not make trouble, his hand to the contrary found it's way inside my pants, rubbing me. So with a dark face, I opened up his shirt, biting his collarbone instead of his neck because I needed to leave a mark on him today.

"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."

_{Looking down at me with condescension, his frosty voice sounded from beside me: "There seems to be nothing at all about you to capture anyone's interest. Which part of you is worthy to be a match for Huaisu-ge?"}
While I was sucking and groping his chest, his other hand was also fondling my waist. Because of him making me react, I felt as though I couldn't stand it any longer. But just as I was about to break away from him, he flipped me and pressed me against the wall.

Looking down at me with condescension, his frosty voice sounded from beside me: "There seems to be nothing at all about you to capture anyone's interest. Which part of you is worthy to be a match for Huaisu-ge?"

_{After taking a seat in a rocking chair near the back door, I kicked it off, planning to catch a few z's for a while.

_{Qing Yichu's face was livid, but he seemed to be afraid his abnormal expression would be noticed, so he picked up his juice and drank it slowly.}
Letting out a low chuckle, he asked: "Why don't we continue?" His lower half was pressed up against mine. I wan' the only one who had a reaction, he reacted as well, but with an awkward look, I replied to him: "For the sake of not being embarrassed while we eat in a little while... It'd be better to for us to return and continue tonight."

_{Li You was clearly not that happy after hearing this, replying dejectedly: "Okay..."}
He obviously knew we also had a group of people we needed to face, so while tightly clinging to my body, his lower jaw leaned near my shoulder as he gasped for breath a few times. His repression along with his dissatisfaction could be sensed, as he chided in a slow, solemn tone: "You naughty thing—" Letting out a laugh, I hugged him, replying: "Who told you to fall for a naughty thing, then?" Accept it.

Li You was clearly not that happy after hearing this, replying dejectedly: "Okay..."

_{We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.}
As punishment, he bit me on the ear, so I pushed hm off, complaining: "What are you going to do if it swells up later?"

We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.

Then after the meal was served, nothing else was said and we silently ate our meal.}My practice was going rather well, but when he said this, my hand stalled, causing a drop of ink to stain the rice paper.

While standing, facing me, he began tidying his messed up clothing. His eyes was fixed on me, as if it were an x-ray, not at all disguising his need to ravish me along with his restraint. After finally closing his eyes, once he was finished cleaning himself up, Xiao Huaisu returned to his reserved and wise self.

_{Following this simple greeting between us of the same generation, I greeted Lian Youshu and his partner with Xiao Huaisu before we both took a seat.}
While tidying my clothes he asked me: "What happened? Did Yichu provoke you?"

Anyhow, it's not like I'll hit the jackpot after doing it just once again, right?}As a result, we went at it for a long time with reckless abandon, doing so for a good while. It turns out the more respectable and private the place you do it in, the more exciting it is. The mood rises so quick I had to bite my lip to keep my voice from leaking out. But more than that, I the easier it is for me to feel, the harder it is for me to hold my voice back. So from time to time I was forced to let out a sound.

After saying this, I looked at the door, afraid someone would come out of nowhere push it open and walk in. I didn't want to lose face in a foreign country.

Seeing him so mad, my smile became even more brilliant.

_{"..." My dear comrades, friends... heed my sincere advice. Never, ever, seduce someone carelessly, otherwise you will pay the price.}
"Did he say something to you? Is that why you're so riled up?" Xiao Huaisu thought it was funny as he ran his hands through my hair to fix it.

"..." My dear comrades, friends... heed my sincere advice. Never, ever, seduce someone carelessly, otherwise you will pay the price.

_{After the sister took the initiative to greet me, her brother, Qing Yichu, also rose to do the same.}

After the sister took the initiative to greet me, her brother, Qing Yichu, also rose to do the same.

_{He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"}"A little sister is also good too."

He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"

_{The look on his face was not a kind one, his face looked as though I had owed him money so I again sealed my eyes shut.}
Xiao Huaisu obviously didn't believe my blatant lies, but noticing I said nothing more, he no longer asked any questions. When he was done, he held my hand waling me inside, saying: "Let's go, we'll be eating soon. He's just a kid, by the way, so whatever is wrong with him is not something deserving of your attention. Anyhow, this is just a side you'll be seeing, nothing more."

_{I concentrated, not overthinking as I was planning to study it hard, but instead he stopped all of a sudden, pressing close to my face before kissing me.}
The point of sharing a meal was to put one's acting skills on full display. So having seen Qing Yichu return to his friendly nature when he had first met me, I choked back my vomit and disdain then put on an especially cheerful smile. Do you think you are the only one with good acting skills? Big brother's acting skills have long achieved peak perfection, you know?

_{Xiao Huaisu rested down his book next to him, then stood up and walked over to me. Circling his arms around my waist from behind, he looked at my characters and commented: "You're restless, your characters are not as beautiful as they were before, here..." Saying this he held the hand with my brush and said: "this part is supposed to be written like this, look carefully."}
When Xia Huaisu passed me a serving of a dish, I looked over to Qing Yichu, who took advantage of everyone's attention being elsewhere to send me a contemptuous smile. So, in turn, I sent him back a grin as well while picking up the dish Xiao Huaisu plated for me to stuff my mouth as I chewed and chewed with relish. Want some?

Xiao Huaisu rested down his book next to him, then stood up and walked over to me. Circling his arms around my waist from behind, he looked at my characters and commented: "You're restless, your characters are not as beautiful as they were before, here..." Saying this he held the hand with my brush and said: "this part is supposed to be written like this, look carefully."

_{So I replied: "Because I'm cute."}
Qing Yichu's face was livid, but he seemed to be afraid his abnormal expression would be noticed, so he picked up his juice and drank it slowly.

So I replied: "Because I'm cute."

_{Qing Yichu suddenly recovered himself, calmly taking a seat on the chair opposite me, saying: "You are not worthy of Huaisu-ge. How could my uncle accept you so easily?" It seemed there was a bit of confusion in his words.}Before we left, however, Lian Youyi patted me on the shoulder and said to comfort me: "I originally wanted to have you guys to talk to each other more, but Youyu is cold by nature, so it appears you to didn't get to say anything to one another."

Qing Yichu suddenly recovered himself, calmly taking a seat on the chair opposite me, saying: "You are not worthy of Huaisu-ge. How could my uncle accept you so easily?" It seemed there was a bit of confusion in his words.

_{Again and again, I gave one impolite response after another, causing Qing Yichu to be very dissatisfied. Seeing his provocations having no affect on me, and both his oil and salt missed, he stood up dejectedly, intending to return inside.}
Seeing him so mad, my smile became even more brilliant.

Again and again, I gave one impolite response after another, causing Qing Yichu to be very dissatisfied. Seeing his provocations having no affect on me, and both his oil and salt missed, he stood up dejectedly, intending to return inside.

_{We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.}I hesitated for a while, but then I remembered what the doctor told me before and comforted myself. Anyhow, it's not like I'll hit the jackpot after doing it just once again, right?

We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.

_{"After a couple of years, your dads won't be as busy, alright? After all, it does take time to make a baby. This will delay things for a while."}Lian Youyi did once say that when she had married Xiao Renzong, the Xiao family had a lot of rules and she had failed to have gotten used to them in the beginning. She had studied quite hard, making it obvious the Lian family didn't have many rules in the past. So what family customs is this Qing Yichu pretending to have?

"After a couple of years, your dads won't be as busy, alright? After all, it does take time to make a baby. This will delay things for a while."

_{Without saying a word, I turned to look at him, asking: "Are you serious?" I actually thought you were going to correct me...}
Having noticed this rather giddy smile of mine, Lian Youyi chuckled as she asked: "What's got you so delighted?"

Without saying a word, I turned to look at him, asking: "Are you serious?" I actually thought you were going to correct me...

_{"A little sister is also good too." After saying this, Li You added, "Yeah, it'd be better to have a little sister. Boys are way too naughty and girls are good. A little sister would also be much cuter than a little brother."}Qing Yichu suddenly recovered himself, calmly taking a seat on the chair opposite me, saying: "You are not worthy of Huaisu-ge. How could my uncle accept you so easily?" It seemed there was a bit of confusion in his words.

"A little sister is also good too." After saying this, Li You added, "Yeah, it'd be better to have a little sister. Boys are way too naughty and girls are good. A little sister would also be much cuter than a little brother."

_{"It's alright. The meal was delicious so it wasn't to bad. Besides, he is an elder and there's a generation gap between elders and youths. It's perfectly normal for us to not say much." I said tactfully to indicate to her it was alright.}He obviously knew we also had a group of people we needed to face, so while tightly clinging to my body, his lower jaw leaned near my shoulder as he gasped for breath a few times. His repression along with his dissatisfaction could be sensed, as he chided in a slow, solemn tone: "You naughty thing—" Letting out a laugh, I hugged him, replying: "Who told you to fall for a naughty thing, then?" Accept it.

"It's alright. The meal was delicious so it wasn't to bad. Besides, he is an elder and there's a generation gap between elders and youths. It's perfectly normal for us to not say much." I said tactfully to indicate to her it was alright.

_{Prompting me to deliberately say: "If I know or not, so what? I'm happy and that's good enough."}
Turning to her, I replied: "It's because this dish is just so delicious."

Prompting me to deliberately say: "If I know or not, so what? I'm happy and that's good enough."

_{Letting out a low chuckle, he asked: "Why don't we continue?" His lower half was pressed up against mine. I wan' the only one who had a reaction, he reacted as well, but with an awkward look, I replied to him: "For the sake of not being embarrassed while we eat in a little while... It'd be better to for us to return and continue tonight."}
"The chef we invited here is from China and they're proficient in many cooking styles. The dish you're eating right now just happens to be their best one. It's no wonder you like it so much." Lian Youyi gave me a nod, indicating I could eat more if I so wish.

Letting out a low chuckle, he asked: "Why don't we continue?" His lower half was pressed up against mine. I wan' the only one who had a reaction, he reacted as well, but with an awkward look, I replied to him: "For the sake of not being embarrassed while we eat in a little while... It'd be better to for us to return and continue tonight."

_{After a while, the swaying of the rocking chair caused sleep to gradually hit me. In a state between wake and sleep, I secretly felt that for outstanding men and women, there will always be no shortage of suitors. Suitors who would not give a damn if that man or woman was married or not in their pursuit.}Prompting me to deliberately say: "If I know or not, so what? I'm happy and that's good enough."

_{Li You was clearly not that happy after hearing this, replying dejectedly: "Okay..."}

Li You was clearly not that happy after hearing this, replying dejectedly: "Okay..."

_{Never seduce someone casually or you will pay the price!}
Maybe it was due to him noticing his son's rather strange reaction, because Qing Youyu, following Qing Yichu's gaze, found his own directed at me. I sent him a smile, and he gave me a nod. After which, I dropped my gaze, ignoring Qing Yichu, turning my full attention on my meal.

Never seduce someone casually or you will pay the price!

_{While he embraced me, we stood up and I pressed him against the wall, biting his neck but he used his hand to stop me, saying: "We still have to go eat in a little while, don't make trouble."}
After eating, everyone gathered for dessert and fruits while chatting and drinking tea. Lian Youshu, looked at the time, stood up, preparing to leave. Then after after a short meeting, the family of four was gone.

While he embraced me, we stood up and I pressed him against the wall, biting his neck but he used his hand to stop me, saying: "We still have to go eat in a little while, don't make trouble."

It's just that when you're mad like this, I can't seem to help myself."

_"You—"
Following their departure, Xiao Huaisu and I stayed for a moment longer before also getting up and taking our leave.

"You—"

_{So sticking close to my ear, he whispered: "The insulation here is quite good, so you don't need to hold back so hard."}
Before we left, however, Lian Youyi patted me on the shoulder and said to comfort me: "I originally wanted to have you guys to talk to each other more, but Youyu is cold by nature, so it appears you to didn't get to say anything to one another."

So sticking close to my ear, he whispered: "The insulation here is quite good, so you don't need to hold back so hard."

_{"He didn't provoke me, I just noticed he was so cute, I got all jealous."}Without any semblance of care I responded: "He, right now right here, at least belongs to me. So you... you can just keep looking on from the sidelines, 'kay?" Without looking,I waved him away, not bothering to see him out.

"He didn't provoke me, I just noticed he was so cute, I got all jealous."

_{Again and again, I gave one impolite response after another, causing Qing Yichu to be very dissatisfied. Seeing his provocations having no affect on me, and both his oil and salt missed, he stood up dejectedly, intending to return inside.}When we met, his smile was superficial, and now there was no expression to be seen. His eyes swept over me from head to toe before he stood in the gap between us.

Again and again, I gave one impolite response after another, causing Qing Yichu to be very dissatisfied. Seeing his provocations having no affect on me, and both his oil and salt missed, he stood up dejectedly, intending to return inside.

_{In the middle of it, I remembered he didn't put on a condom, so reaching behind me I said: "You're not wearing any!"}

_{As punishment, he bit me on the ear, so I pushed hm off, complaining: "What are you going to do if it swells up later?"}I shrugged, continuing to practice my characters. While I practised, I replied: "Not only did I pay attention to him, I also riled him up real good."

As punishment, he bit me on the ear, so I pushed hm off, complaining: "What are you going to do if it swells up later?"

_{How can I continue practising like this? I put down the brush, planning to turn around and push him away, but he locked me in place, then pushed everything on the table aside. Next, he turned me around, lifting me to sit on the table, then began kissing me gently. While kissing me, he undid my shirt, making me reach out to stop and remind him: "This is a the study."}
"That is true, but Yichu is closer to your age though, and I noticed you two had quite a good chat. There's no harm in you two exchanging contact privately as well." After Lian Youyi finished speaking, I let out a couple dry chuckles while nodding and mumbling a few okay's. Thanks, but I must politely decline. How can I befriend someone aiming those covetous eyes of theirs at my man?

_{"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."}Lian Youyi's brother was named Lian Youshu, while his daughter was named Lian Yiting. His son carried the surname of his partner, so he was called Qing Yichu. When I went to Xiao Huaisu's uncle's house for the second time, there were four members of the Lian family there. Lian Yiting was next to Lian Youyi chatting away happily, Lian Youshu was speaking with Xiao Renzong, and Lian Youshu's partner was talking with his son, Qing Yichu. The atmosphere was joyful, and when they noticed we had entered, all there gazes turned our way.

"Huaisu-ge, you made it. Li Tian-ge, nice to meet you. I'm Qing Yichu."

_{I shrugged, continuing to practice my characters. While I practised, I replied: "Not only did I pay attention to him, I also riled him up real good."}Xiao Huaisu stopped too, but we were at the point of no return and I figured we won't go running there to get some and bring it back. He didn't say anything, his body continued without any sign of pausing before he whispered: "Why don't we let nature take its course today... what's coming can't be stopped."

I shrugged, continuing to practice my characters. While I practised, I replied: "Not only did I pay attention to him, I also riled him up real good."

_{His hands let go, but he wasn't annoyed, instead taking advantage of the moment to lower them to my...}
Once we made it back, it was time for the midday break, so Xiao Huaisu sat on the sofa n the study reading a book, while I stood at the desk practising my calligraphy.

His hands let go, but he wasn't annoyed, instead taking advantage of the moment to lower them to my...

_{My practice was going rather well, but when he said this, my hand stalled, causing a drop of ink to stain the rice paper. Looking at the drop of ink, I hesitated on whether I should help that guy make an indirect confession.}

My practice was going rather well, but when he said this, my hand stalled, causing a drop of ink to stain the rice paper. Looking at the drop of ink, I hesitated on whether I should help that guy make an indirect confession.

_{We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.}The point of sharing a meal was to put one's acting skills on full display. So having seen Qing Yichu return to his friendly nature when he had first met me, I choked back my vomit and disdain then put on an especially cheerful smile. Do you think you are the only one with good acting skills? Big brother's acting skills have long achieved peak perfection, you know?

We didn't bring Li You over to his Uncle's place this time around. Instead, she she stayed back at her grandparents place.

_{He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"}
He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"

He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"

_{I seduced him at noon, so it was only natural I would now have to pay the bill.}Yichu... He said his name so affectionately I snorted before rolling my eyes while replying: "Are you two close?"

I seduced him at noon, so it was only natural I would now have to pay the bill.

_{After telling me to not make trouble, his hand to the contrary found it's way inside my pants, rubbing me. So with a dark face, I opened up his shirt, biting his collarbone instead of his neck because I needed to leave a mark on him today.}Xiao Huaisu obviously didn't believe my blatant lies, but noticing I said nothing more, he no longer asked any questions. When he was done, he held my hand waling me inside, saying: "Let's go, we'll be eating soon. He's just a kid, by the way, so whatever is wrong with him is not something deserving of your attention. Anyhow, this is just a side you'll be seeing, nothing more."

After telling me to not make trouble, his hand to the contrary found it's way inside my pants, rubbing me. So with a dark face, I opened up his shirt, biting his collarbone instead of his neck because I needed to leave a mark on him today.

_{"Good... keep going."}
My practice was going rather well, but when he said this, my hand stalled, causing a drop of ink to stain the rice paper. Looking at the drop of ink, I hesitated on whether I should help that guy make an indirect confession.

"Good... keep going."

_{Lian Youyi nodded, in understanding, then introduced me to her brother and his family: "This is Xiao Huaisu's partner, Li Tian. They took advantage of it being the summer vacation to bring their kid over for some fun."}
Having thought about it, I let it go and simply said:: "That little brother of yours seems to worship you a lot, and felt as though I was unworthy of his Huaisu-ge."

Lian Youyi nodded, in understanding, then introduced me to her brother and his family: "This is Xiao Huaisu's partner, Li Tian. They took advantage of it being the summer vacation to bring their kid over for some fun."

_{"Did he say something to you? Is that why you're so riled up?" Xiao Huaisu thought it was funny as he ran his hands through my hair to fix it.}
Hearing this, Xiao Huaisu was a bit shocked, his brows raised as he told me: "Whether somebody's suitable of not, I'm the one with who has the final say, no? Don't pay attention to anything he says. Actually, don't have any contact with him beyond the basic. We only met a few times in the past at my aunt's place anyhow."

After telling me to not make trouble, his hand to the contrary found it's way inside my pants, rubbing me. So with a dark face, I opened up his shirt, biting his collarbone instead of his neck because I needed to leave a mark on him today.

_{After I spoke, Li You stopped, making me think she had given up the idea but instead she suddenly chimed: "Both my grandmas and grandpas have a lot of free time! They don't have to go to work, right? They'll definitely have time."}The look on his face was not a kind one, his face looked as though I had owed him money so I again sealed my eyes shut.

After I spoke, Li You stopped, making me think she had given up the idea but instead she suddenly chimed: "Both my grandmas and grandpas have a lot of free time! They don't have to go to work, right? They'll definitely have time."

_{Yichu... He said his name so affectionately I snorted before rolling my eyes while replying: "Are you two close?"}
Letting out a snort, I added: "You were smart back then and didn't pay much attention to him. Otherwise, I would've skinned you when we got back."

Yichu... He said his name so affectionately I snorted before rolling my eyes while replying: "Are you two close?"

_{iana: Sorry for the delay. I'll try to get things back on track now.}

But he kept going without a care, so I pushed against his shoulder, angry from embarrassment: "What will we do if someone walks in?" After saying this, I looked at the door, afraid someone would come out of nowhere push it open and walk in. I didn't want to lose face in a foreign country.

I also gave her a nod as I greeted her, saying: "Nice to meet you, Yiting."

However, he replied: "They won't. I already locked when I came in earlier."

As a result, we went at it for a long time with reckless abandon, doing so for a good while. It turns out the more respectable and private the place you do it in, the more exciting it is. The mood rises so quick I had to bite my lip to keep my voice from leaking out. But more than that, I the easier it is for me to feel, the harder it is for me to hold my voice back.

So having seen Qing Yichu return to his friendly nature when he had first met me, I choked back my vomit and disdain then put on an especially cheerful smile. Do you think you are the only one with good acting skills? Big brother's acting skills have long achieved peak perfection, you know?}
Xiao Huaisu stopped too, but we were at the point of no return and I figured we won't go running there to get some and bring it back. He didn't say anything, his body continued without any sign of pausing before he whispered: "Why don't we let nature take its course today... what's coming can't be stopped."

Do you think you are the only one with good acting skills? Big brother's acting skills have long achieved peak perfection, you know?

Looking down at me with condescension, his frosty voice sounded from beside me: "There seems to be nothing at all about you to capture anyone's interest. Which part of you is worthy to be a match for Huaisu-ge?"

_{After eating, everyone gathered for dessert and fruits while chatting and drinking tea. Lian Youshu, looked at the time, stood up, preparing to leave. Then after after a short meeting, the family of four was gone.}
You just don't want to go get one right now.

After eating, everyone gathered for dessert and fruits while chatting and drinking tea. Lian Youshu, looked at the time, stood up, preparing to leave. Then after after a short meeting, the family of four was gone.

_{You just don't want to go get one right now.}
I hesitated for a while, but then I remembered what the doctor told me before and comforted myself. Anyhow, it's not like I'll hit the jackpot after doing it just once again, right?

You just don't want to go get one right now.

_{Sitting opposite me was Qing Youyu, whose disposition was rather frosty to the contrary. Although we were members of the same clan so to speak, neither of us were friendly to the other.}Seeing him deliberately guiding me because he wanted to see me embarrassed, I clenched my teeth to prevent a sound from coming out. He smirked when he saw this, reaching his arms below my own to fondle my chest. The scene made me look directly at the mirror, the image within it was obscenely debauched. I no longer turned my head to see my seductive and clearly shame-filled appearance.

Sitting opposite me was Qing Youyu, whose disposition was rather frosty to the contrary. Although we were members of the same clan so to speak, neither of us were friendly to the other. He was cold, and I wasn't in the mood to go sticking my warm cheek to his frigid аss either. So I took no initiative to reach out to him first. Lian Youyi was busy discussing paintings with her niece, Lian Yiting, so I bent over and picked up a book from the table, and casually flipped through it. Even though it was a book about ink paintings, I suddenly got the feeling it could be useful to kill time during all those boring conversations. There were pictures inside them at the very least, looking at them wasn't so bad either.

_{iana: Sorry for the delay. I'll try to get things back on track now.}Just as I was about to drift off, I felt a familiar breath leaning over me. Opening my eyes, I felt a bit lazy, not wanting to move, and he reached out to to stroke my hair as he asked: "Why didn't you go take a nap in one of the rooms?"

iana: Sorry for the delay. I'll try to get things back on track now.

_{He obviously knew we also had a group of people we needed to face, so while tightly clinging to my body, his lower jaw leaned near my shoulder as he gasped for breath a few times. His repression along with his dissatisfaction could be sensed, as he chided in a slow, solemn tone: "You naughty thing—" Letting out a laugh, I hugged him, replying: "Who told you to fall for a naughty thing, then?" Accept it.}
She said it wasn't easy to conceive, so I'll trust her word as a doctor for once.

He obviously knew we also had a group of people we needed to face, so while tightly clinging to my body, his lower jaw leaned near my shoulder as he gasped for breath a few times. His repression along with his dissatisfaction could be sensed, as he chided in a slow, solemn tone: "You naughty thing—" Letting out a laugh, I hugged him, replying: "Who told you to fall for a naughty thing, then?" Accept it.

_{Qing Yichu's retreating figure froze, his head turning to look at me, saying: "Do you think everything will be alright just because the two of you got hitched? Your identities and stations are too different, and your circles are not the same. The longer you both live together, the more problems there will be, so I'll just see if you'll still be able to laugh about it then."}
As a result, we went at it for a long time with reckless abandon, doing so for a good while. It turns out the more respectable and private the place you do it in, the more exciting it is. The mood rises so quick I had to bite my lip to keep my voice from leaking out. But more than that, I the easier it is for me to feel, the harder it is for me to hold my voice back. So from time to time I was forced to let out a sound.

Qing Yichu's retreating figure froze, his head turning to look at me, saying: "Do you think everything will be alright just because the two of you got hitched? Your identities and stations are too different, and your circles are not the same. The longer you both live together, the more problems there will be, so I'll just see if you'll still be able to laugh about it then."

_{He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"}"The chef we invited here is from China and they're proficient in many cooking styles. The dish you're eating right now just happens to be their best one. It's no wonder you like it so much." Lian Youyi gave me a nod, indicating I could eat more if I so wish.

He then asked: "Is it possible for you to tell me what actually happened earlier today now?"

_{When we met, his smile was superficial, and now there was no expression to be seen. His eyes swept over me from head to toe before he stood in the gap between us.}Before we left, however, Lian Youyi patted me on the shoulder and said to comfort me: "I originally wanted to have you guys to talk to each other more, but Youyu is cold by nature, so it appears you to didn't get to say anything to one another."

When we met, his smile was superficial, and now there was no expression to be seen. His eyes swept over me from head to toe before he stood in the gap between us.

So sticking close to my ear, he whispered: "The insulation here is quite good, so you don't need to hold back so hard."

_{After I spoke, Li You stopped, making me think she had given up the idea but instead she suddenly chimed: "Both my grandmas and grandpas have a lot of free time! They don't have to go to work, right? They'll definitely have time."}
My face was burning hot. I looked at my face in the mirror, my face was flushed, and my eyelashes were soaked, to the point where it looked as if I had cried. From behind me, Xiao Huaisu looked at me in the mirror as well, seducing me, coaxing me, saying: "Just let it out, don't be afraid..." right as he gave a fierce thrust, catching me by surprise and making me cry out.

After I spoke, Li You stopped, making me think she had given up the idea but instead she suddenly chimed: "Both my grandmas and grandpas have a lot of free time! They don't have to go to work, right? They'll definitely have time."

_N/A"It's alright. The meal was delicious so it wasn't to bad. Besides, he is an elder and there's a generation gap between elders and youths. It's perfectly normal for us to not say much." I said tactfully to indicate to her it was alright.

_{So I made up an excuse then said: "Both of your dads are busy with a lot of stuff right now, so if we have another kid, who's going to raise it?"}I stared at him, the recollection of Qing Yichu's provocative words earlier playing back my mind. So pulling his hand, I reached out to embrace his neck, kissing him, where the lead was taken by me and my demand was strong. At first, Xiao Huaisu was stunned, but not long afterwards, he quickly reacted to me and my initiative was gradually snatched away. The kiss was not the same as our usually long and gentle ones, the possessiveness and desire within it clear.

So I made up an excuse then said: "Both of your dads are busy with a lot of stuff right now, so if we have another kid, who's going to raise it?"

_{But I ruthlessly thrust my knife with my next words: "Seeing the person you like with someone you don't like must be very hard to savour, doesn't it?" Don't blame my sharp tongue when you were the one looking to find fault with me first.}
"Ahhh——"

But I ruthlessly thrust my knife with my next words: "Seeing the person you like with someone you don't like must be very hard to savour, doesn't it?" Don't blame my sharp tongue when you were the one looking to find fault with me first.

_{Following this simple greeting between us of the same generation, I greeted Lian Youshu and his partner with Xiao Huaisu before we both took a seat.}"Did he say something to you? Is that why you're so riled up?" Xiao Huaisu thought it was funny as he ran his hands through my hair to fix it.

_{My practice was going rather well, but when he said this, my hand stalled, causing a drop of ink to stain the rice paper. Looking at the drop of ink, I hesitated on whether I should help that guy make an indirect confession.}
Seeing him deliberately guiding me because he wanted to see me embarrassed, I clenched my teeth to prevent a sound from coming out.

My practice was going rather well, but when he said this, my hand stalled, causing a drop of ink to stain the rice paper. Looking at the drop of ink, I hesitated on whether I should help that guy make an indirect confession.

_{However, he replied: "They won't. I already locked when I came in earlier."}"It's alright. The meal was delicious so it wasn't to bad. Besides, he is an elder and there's a generation gap between elders and youths. It's perfectly normal for us to not say much." I said tactfully to indicate to her it was alright.

However, he replied: "They won't. I already locked when I came in earlier."

_{I concentrated, not overthinking as I was planning to study it hard, but instead he stopped all of a sudden, pressing close to my face before kissing me.}Qing Yichu probably never expected me, a guest, to launch a counterattack so directly and was obviously a bit surprised. Afterwards, he knotted his brows as he spat back: "Vulgar and rude."

I concentrated, not overthinking as I was planning to study it hard, but instead he stopped all of a sudden, pressing close to my face before kissing me.

_{Lian Youyi did once say that when she had married Xiao Renzong, the Xiao family had a lot of rules and she had failed to have gotten used to them in the beginning. She had studied quite hard, making it obvious the Lian family didn't have many rules in the past. So what family customs is this Qing Yichu pretending to have?}
The hands I used to support myself on the table rose with great effort, opening his unruly hands, as I growled to him: "Don't do that here, dammit."

_{The look on his face was not a kind one, his face looked as though I had owed him money so I again sealed my eyes shut.}Yichu... He said his name so affectionately I snorted before rolling my eyes while replying: "Are you two close?"

The look on his face was not a kind one, his face looked as though I had owed him money so I again sealed my eyes shut.

_{Qing Yichu suddenly recovered himself, calmly taking a seat on the chair opposite me, saying: "You are not worthy of Huaisu-ge. How could my uncle accept you so easily?" It seemed there was a bit of confusion in his words.}
His hands let go, but he wasn't annoyed, instead taking advantage of the moment to lower them to my...

Qing Yichu suddenly recovered himself, calmly taking a seat on the chair opposite me, saying: "You are not worthy of Huaisu-ge. How could my uncle accept you so easily?" It seemed there was a bit of confusion in his words.

_{Qing Yichu was so mad his face turned blue: "Does Huaisu-ge also know about your true face? Just a moment ago in the living room, you pretended to be refined, but you actually don't possess on bit of rules for proper etiquette."}Seeing him so mad, my smile became even more brilliant.

Qing Yichu was so mad his face turned blue: "Does Huaisu-ge also know about your true face? Just a moment ago in the living room, you pretended to be refined, but you actually don't possess on bit of rules for proper etiquette."

_{As if nothing had happened, I chatted with everyone normally then entered the dinning room for our meal. Before the meal was served, I sat beside Xiao Huaisu and spoke quietly with Xiao Huaisu. Then after the meal was served, nothing else was said and we silently ate our meal.}
"You—"

As if nothing had happened, I chatted with everyone normally then entered the dinning room for our meal. Before the meal was served, I sat beside Xiao Huaisu and spoke quietly with Xiao Huaisu. Then after the meal was served, nothing else was said and we silently ate our meal.

_{"I figured you wouldn't be able to grin and bear it." Xiao Huaisu didn't seem to be surprised by this at all, chuckling as he added: "Well, no wonder he kept talking with me over and over back then. Was that him fighting back?"}
"Does this feel better?"

"I figured you wouldn't be able to grin and bear it." Xiao Huaisu didn't seem to be surprised by this at all, chuckling as he added: "Well, no wonder he kept talking with me over and over back then. Was that him fighting back?"

_{{Yichu...} He said his name so affectionately I snorted before rolling my eyes while replying: "Are you two close?"}Xiao Huaisu obviously didn't believe my blatant lies, but noticing I said nothing more, he no longer asked any questions. When he was done, he held my hand waling me inside, saying: "Let's go, we'll be eating soon. He's just a kid, by the way, so whatever is wrong with him is not something deserving of your attention. Anyhow, this is just a side you'll be seeing, nothing more."

Yichu... He said his name so affectionately I snorted before rolling my eyes while replying: "Are you two close?"

_{After a while, the swaying of the rocking chair caused sleep to gradually hit me. In a state between wake and sleep, I secretly felt that for outstanding men and women, there will always be no shortage of suitors. Suitors who would not give a damn if that man or woman was married or not in their pursuit.}
"..." My dear comrades, friends... heed my sincere advice. Never, ever, seduce someone carelessly, otherwise you will pay the price.

Suitors who would not give a damn if that man or woman was married or not in their pursuit.

_{Without saying a word, I turned to look at him, asking: "Are you serious?" {I actually thought you were going to correct me...}}In reply I laughed, saying: "And the words you speak are oh so polite." Don't you realise I'm a guest?

Without saying a word, I turned to look at him, asking: "Are you serious?" I actually thought you were going to correct me...

_{I shrugged, continuing to practice my characters. While I practised, I replied: "Not only did I pay attention to him, I also riled him up real good."}Lian Youyi waved me over to ask: "Youyou didn't come with you guys?"

I shrugged, continuing to practice my characters. While I practised, I replied: "Not only did I pay attention to him, I also riled him up real good."
