Chapter 42: Chapter 40: It Was Clearly You, Senpai, Who Went First
Many vendors have gradually begun to leave the Lantern Festival.
By the time Chloe and the others came to their senses, it was already the next day.
Senior Sister held his hand and said:
"Shall we go back?"
After October, the weather started to cool down.
The night wind blowing down the street carried a hint of desolation.
"I’ll have something to eat first; the Little Marbles aren’t filling."
In fact, trying not to waste, he had shown off several boxes of Little Marbles with Rephya and the others at that time.
And meanwhile drove away the taste of the Treasure Elf.
Now, he certainly wasn’t feeling hungry.
While eating skewers, Senior Sister was still mumbling.
"The dorm manager is very strict. If you don’t go back soon, you’ll be scolded severely."
"If I’m scolded to tears with you, can you comfort me?"
"Let me handle it. She’ll probably be softer on me."
Chloe pretended not to hear.
It’s okay.
After all, neither of them would end up being scolded.
After finishing the skewers, Chloe tentatively said:
"How about I book a room at a hotel for you tonight to avoid being scolded?"
"But I’ve never stayed outside by myself."
Actually, before leaving, she had envisioned such a scenario.
In her dream, she was always kissed until her mind went blank and then hazily dragged to a hotel.
But this time, Chloe was very well-behaved, which made her more rational.
"It’s okay, I’ve never stayed outside either."
"What sort of relationship do we have now?"
"What kind of relationship does Sister Fufu want us to have?"
The girl pouted.
She really wasn’t willing to take that step forward with him openly.
It’s not that she didn’t like him.
She was afraid of becoming his vulnerability.
The ending in her dream was something she couldn’t accept.
So she could only stare blankly at Chloe, and after a long time, softly asked:
"Chloe, do you like me?"
"I like you, maybe there’s a bit of love too?"
A heartfelt statement.
He wasn’t hesitant at all.
Joking aside, he really did go all out against enemies in the simulation, okay?
He truly experienced a near-death moment.
Saying this now, there wasn’t a hint of insincerity,
"That’s enough."
Fufu smiled sweetly, blinked, and said:
"You’re just asking me to lie down with you, right?"
"I want to learn more about the past of Senior Sister. Don’t worry, nothing else will happen."
Fufu was being held by the hand, feeling that the night was also somewhat intoxicating.
But what was the saying.
I want to be in love, but I’m afraid of...
At the critical moment, she instead felt like she couldn’t catch her breath.
Oh no.
Why am I so brave in the dream?!
She felt like the situation was a bit different from what she imagined.
It’s unfortunate that our Senior Sister Fufu might take quite some time to understand the difference between reality and dreams.
Not to mention.
Proactive Chloe calls out to you, holding your hand and saying "Good sister, help me", then kisses you until your scalp tingles...
Compared to the half-hearted, mostly focused on "who to kill", real-life version of Chloe the P社 player.
The persuasive power of the two isn’t on the same level.
Some people appear quite proper in real life, but in games, they do whatever makes them happy.
So Fufu realized she was more flustered than she had imagined.
When the hotel room door was closed and locked, she felt her heart was placed on a suspension bridge.
Chloe was unsurprised.
Anthropologist Edward Hall once conducted a psychological experiment, finding that generally, the interpersonal relationship of the dating parties and the situation they are in determines their self-space range to each other.
12-15 feet of [Public Distance], mostly used for public speaking.
1.2-3.7m of [Social Distance], belongs to the realm of greeting unfamiliar people.
0.45-1.2m of [Personal Distance], belongs to the domain of familiar acquaintances allowing minor physical contact.
Further down, that is the [Intimate Distance].
Between different genders, generally limited to couples and lovers.
Taking flights of fancy is human nature.
As Zhang Ailing said:
"...is the pathway to a woman’s soul."
The originally uninteresting opposite sex can, after prolonged close contact with you, generate good feelings.
Among actors, it’s not uncommon for on-screen chemistry to occur.
These scenarios are repeatedly invaded intimate areas, ultimately turning results into causes.
This is why it is said that to be an actor, you need to "liberate nature".
If you do not get used to your intimate distance being repeatedly invaded, how will you integrate into a role?
But once you do this...
For some things, whether you can remain pure depends on your ability to withstand them.
If coupled with the temptation of fame and fortune...
One can only say that human nature cannot withstand challenges.
Chloe glanced at Senior Sister.
She was just sitting on the edge of the bed, her face full of tension.
He chuckled inwardly.
This girl was bold and intrusive into his intimate space in the props room.
Maybe because it was her initiative to act, she wasn’t feeling awkward.
As for Chloe himself, he was used to it.
Who knows better than him just how intimate Fufu and he are?
How many children were there already?
That distance had once run into the negatives.
But this time, his proactive intrusion made Fufu a bit nervous.
Especially the teasing smile from the front desk lady during check-in made the girl even more nervous.
Oh, right.
He had forgotten.
In the simulation, he had kissed the girl until she buried her face against him and couldn’t lift her head before going to check in.
"Sister Fufu, don’t be nervous, I won’t hurt you."
He held Senior Sister in his arms, gently stroking her loose red hair.
Listening to his heartbeat calmed Fufu’s emotions somewhat.
"I-I’ve never been here before."
"I know."
"I just feel a little nervous."
"Hmm, don’t be afraid, Sister Fufu, I’m by your side."
He kissed her lip corner.
Amid her cries, he traced down, and warmth spread over her collarbone.
The teasing touch of his fangs on her collarbone made her body tremble, and her nerves tense to the point her legs were weak.
But when he looked up to meet her gaze, she was shamefully unable to utter a word of refusal.
This fanciful feeling made her very frustrated.
Yet with dreams intertwining with reality, she couldn’t distinguish anymore.
"Obviously it was Senior Sister first."
He muttered.
He still wondered if Fufu had been influenced by the Blessed with Many Children System and obtained memories from the simulation.
But bodily instinct does not lie.
When Senior Sister was being bitten by him, that powerless yet shameful look couldn’t be acted.
Unlike him, who experienced life twice over.
That was the taste of a fresh fruit.
Towards the latter part, he hadn’t felt it for a long time.
So now, he truly felt emotionally stirred.
"I-I I I..."
Fufu’s lips started trembling.
She wanted to retort but didn’t know how to say it.
Seeing Chloe’s lost expression, she couldn’t help lowering her head and said:
"I’ll go take a shower first."
"Senior Sister isn’t afraid of something happening?"
"I’m just going to wash up!"
She was still trying hard.
She placed her small satchel down and hurriedly went to a corner to change clothes.
But maybe she rushed too much, the small satchel got caught and fell to the ground.
"So rash..."
This panicked state was unlike a long-married couple.
So what changes have happened to Sister Fufu?
He stepped forward to pick up the bag and saw a small black box sliding out.
The large advertising slogan on the box made his expression subtle.
[Reach the summit, conquer the peak]
Sister Fufu wasn’t she ready?
He stood frozen in place for a long time.
Until he noticed the water sound in the bathroom had faded, but Fufu hadn’t come out.
Did something happen?
Just as he was thinking that, the bathroom door opened.
