"You, Li Yang, don't overthink things," Shui Xiang felt the fingers on her chin, her heart thumping faster. She sat there, completely still.
Li Yang smiled and asked, "Are you sure it's me overthinking?"
"I,"
"Alright, even if it is me overthinking, are you willing or not?" Li Yang was not a man who passively waited for a woman to make a move. As a man, he liked to take the initiative in matters between men and women.
Hearing his direct question, Shui Xiang felt she could barely cope. She quickly stood up and said, "The soup is almost gone, I'll go to the kitchen to get some."
"Don't think about escaping," Li Yang pulled her into his arms. "Quick, tell me, are you willing?"
"Li Yang, don't be like this," Shui Xiang felt the firmness of his body, and a heat spread uncontrollably through her.
Especially when she felt the difference in the structure of his body compared to a woman's, she couldn't help but squirm a few times.
This greatly stimulated Li Yang.
"Hmmph!"
Li Yang subconsciously used a little more strength and asked again, "One last time, if you're not willing, we'll continue to be just friends from now on, I promise to never cross this line again, and never to have such thoughts again."
"Tell me, are you willing?"
"I, I'm not worthy of you," Shui Xiang's heart pounded wildly, but thinking of her past tragic experiences, she couldn't help but shake her head sadly. "Li Yang, please let me go, it's better if we remain friends."
"Is that so?" Li Yang sighed.
Shui Xiang lowered her eyes, almost crying with sadness, but she still said nothing. She got up and was about to head to the kitchen.
She thought Li Yang would really let go.
But unexpectedly, Li Yang suddenly held her even tighter. "I'm sorry, a man's mouth is a deceitful thing. I was lying just now. Sister Shui, I've thought about it, and it doesn't matter if you're unwilling."
"Ah?" Shui Xiang froze for a moment, then turned to look at him.
Before she could ask why, Li Yang directly showed his attitude towards her with his actions.
With one hand pressing down, Li Yang pushed Shui Xiang onto the dining table, leaned in, and directly sealed her alluring red lips.
"Mmm!"
Shui Xiang's beautiful eyes widened, and she stood there, stunned, not knowing what to do.
Li Yang's large hands didn't hold back, using the same technique as a pastry chef kneading dough, squeezing and molding, shaping the dough into various forms.
This left Shui Xiang's mind completely blank, with only primal needs remaining.
She didn't know exactly when she started to respond to Li Yang's movements, letting out soft cries of pleasure, high and low.
Neither of them knew when they had moved to the bedroom, and it wasn't until the large bed began to sway precariously that the frenzied battle concluded.
"Hoo, hoo!" Shui Xiang gasped for breath. Although the room was dark without lights, she could still feel Li Yang's gaze.
Recalling the events of earlier, her delicate body trembled.
Not from fear, but from excitement.
After so many years, she finally had a man.
Li Yang caressed her skin, as smooth as fine silk, and a surge of heat rose in his heart. One hand began to mimic the pastry chef's technique again, teasing the beautiful woman beside him.
"Ah!" Shui Xiang exclaimed, surprised that he still had the energy, her skin immediately flushing a tempting rose hue.
Li Yang pressed down on her.
When the sky had completely darkened, Li Yang finally emerged from her bedroom, looking refreshed. He walked to the dining table to eat.
Although the food had gone cold, he ate with great relish, even more so than when it was hot.
Through the crack of the bedroom door, watching Li Yang eat heartily in the living room, Shui Xiang showed a satisfied smile on her face, then slowly drifted off to sleep.
"Nannan, we're going home now." As Li Yang was finishing his meal, Shui Xiang's father returned with his granddaughter.
Li Yang immediately stood up and smiled, "Hello, Uncle. Is Nannan asleep?"
"Yes, it's my fault for returning so late, she's already drowsy," Shui Xiang's father nodded with a smile, looking at Nannan resting on his back.
Then his gaze shifted, looking around, and he asked in surprise, "Where's Shui Xiang? Why are you eating here alone?"
"Sister Shui was too tired today. After eating with me, she went to sleep," Li Yang said immediately. "I wanted to wait for you to come back, so I stayed."
"Since I had nothing to do, I started eating. Otherwise, with so much left, it would be too wasteful."
"Oh dear, Mr. Li is truly good-natured. If I were a guest at someone's house and the host treated me like this, I would be angry," Shui Xiang's father said with a sheepish smile.
Li Yang replied, "Your hospitality has already been very good, and I am very grateful."
"Uncle, please take Nannan to her room quickly. I'll clean up the dining table."
"How can that be?" Shui Xiang's father quickly said, "Wait for me. I'll take Nannan back to her bedroom, then I'll clean this up. Don't move anything."
"It's alright, Uncle," Li Yang smiled and started clearing the table, covering the remaining dishes with plastic wrap and discarding the rest.
Shui Xiang's father brought Nannan out and saw him already working. He hurried over and said, "Oh dear, Mr. Li, this really isn't appropriate. Leave it to me, leave it to me!"
"It's fine, let's do it together."
"Oh dear, alright."
After they finished clearing the table, Shui Xiang's father said apologetically, "Wait a moment, I'll go wake Shui Xiang up. This is outrageous, the guest is about to leave, and she's still sleeping soundly."
"No need, Uncle. Something major happened today, and we almost got taken in by the security team. Sister Shui was really exhausted, let her sleep a little longer," Li Yang said, shaking his head.
Upon hearing that the matter involved the security team, Shui Xiang's father's face changed, and he asked nervously, "What happened?"
"Someone wanted to harm us, but we saw through it. It was a close call," Li Yang said.
"That's good."
Shui Xiang's father breathed a sigh of relief, but he also abandoned the idea of waking his daughter. He quickly said, "I'll see you out."
"Thank you, Uncle, but I know the way out of here. I can go by myself," Li Yang shook his head. "You should stay home. If Nannan wakes up suddenly and has a nightmare or something, it would be scary for her to not have an adult nearby."
"This,"
"That's settled then. Uncle, when I visit again next time, please tell Nannan that her uncle hasn't forgotten the super big Barbie doll she wanted." Li Yang waved goodbye with a smile and walked towards the exit.
"Then, take care on your way. Drive carefully."
Shui Xiang's father hesitated for a moment, then ultimately did not see him off. Watching his retreating back, he murmured, "This Mr. Li truly has gentlemanly demeanor, he's a good man. A man like this will be targeted by other women sooner or later."
"Sigh, this girl Shui Xiang, why doesn't she seize the opportunity? We've been out in the cold for so long with Nannan, truly!"
