Chapter 145: Can’t We Just Keep It Platonic?

Xu Qingzhou wrapped herself around Xie An like an octopus.

Xie An was helpless and could only support her butt with both hands.

She steadily stood up.

“Shall we go back to the room and sleep?”

“I haven’t agreed to get back together with you yet…”

“Hmm, who says we can’t sleep together without getting back together? Can’t we keep it platonic?”

“Who wants to sleep with you all hot and heavy?!!”

Xie An kept a straight face while saying something so suggestive.

Xu Qingzhou really hadn’t expected Xie An to be this bold now?

Had she practiced with someone?

Those claims about not dating anyone else in these years besides herself were worth questioning.

Of course, she herself hadn’t been idle either and had dated a boyfriend.

But would Xie An mind?

She probably did mind quite a bit.

She just didn’t say it.

Anyway, she herself didn’t mind if Xie An had dated others.

Whatever, why worry about it so much?

Xie An carried Xu Qingzhou back to the bedroom and placed her on the bed.

Xu Qingzhou’s eyes were still a bit red from crying.

Xie An pulled out a few tissues and handed them over.

Xu Qingzhou looked at her.

“I didn’t do anything with my ex-boyfriend, not even kiss…”

“Oh.”

Xie An responded with her words.

She was willing to believe Xu Qingzhou—as long as she said it, Xie An believed her.

This disguised little deceiver had stolen her heart for a full eleven years.

“Oh? Are you going to believe me or not?”

What did this person mean?

Couldn’t she just keep it simple?

Couldn’t she just say it outright?

“I really didn’t…”

“I believe you.”

Xie An bent down to look her in the eyes.

Her eyes were bright and pure, just like before.

Actually, many years ago, she had liked Xie An a little too, but thinking about how she had deceived her made the relationship feel abnormal.

So she ran away.

“Why? Why do you trust me so much? I’m not a good girl.”

“Why does it have to be a good girl? Bad girls get liked too. No matter what you’re like, I like you very much, I love you very much. My feelings haven’t changed these years.”

“It was love at first sight for me toward you—no, in your words, it should be lust at first sight.”

Xu Qingzhou quickly pulled her little blanket tighter around herself.

She was still eyeing her body?

No… how had she gotten addicted?

Did this dish of hers have to be served up to Xie An?

“Don’t misunderstand, I’m not that perverted. If I were, you wouldn’t be all dressed up like this right now; you’d be begging me on the bed, shouting that you want more…”

“I—!”

What was Xie An saying?

When did she learn to talk like this?

Don’t look at her—this wasn’t something she taught!

She pulled the blanket even tighter.

She even swallowed hard, feeling like she had let the wolf into the house.

“I won’t do that now, so don’t be too nervous.”

Xie An explained.

She wasn’t a pervert, but if she were…

She would have taken advantage of her long ago.

Of course, she just wouldn’t do it now—for the time being. Later, who knew.

Not now? What if later?

Xu Qingzhou had been a bit sleepy before, but now she was completely awake.

Totally awake.

“Not nervous… that would make me an idiot, right?”

Don’t think that just because she only had a bachelor’s degree, she was stupid!

Xu Qingzhou shifted her position a bit.

Reluctantly, she made space for the other.

“Lie down, let’s sleep.”

“You’re not afraid of me?”

“I’m scared, but I’m more scared of the thunder.”

She lifted her blanket, letting the person in front of her slip under it.

The two of them together were over sixty years old.

It shouldn’t be that bad, right?

She wasn’t that thirsty either; she wouldn’t lose control just seeing her ex-girlfriend.

Even though the other woman’s skills were pretty good.

Xie An didn’t waste the opportunity and slipped right in.

She held the warm, soft body in front of her.

It felt very reassuring.

Xu Qingzhou poked at the other’s back.

Excuse me, where was her restraint?

Had she asked her to hold her while sleeping?

She hadn’t, right?

Who told her to take liberties?

But Xie An tightly encircled her waist and refused to let go.

In her eyes, letting her into the bed was the same as permission to take things further.

Otherwise, who would let their ex-girlfriend casually slip into their bed?

“Aren’t you taking things a bit too far?”

“Isn’t that okay? Do you want to kick me out?”

Xie An looked up at her.

Those innocent eyes gazed at her.

Back then, she had been deceived by those naive, innocent eyes.

She thought she was some pure girl.

It wasn’t until ten years later that she realized—pure? Far from it.

She herself had been the pure fool.

A one-sided idiot.

She really couldn’t bring herself to say anything too harsh.

It was just sleeping while holding each other, right?

Anyway, she was pretty scared of thunder too. Even if Xie An didn’t hold her, she would have held onto her.

It was the same either way. Since she had taken the initiative, there was no need for her to do it again.

The next morning.

Xu Qingzhou woke up earlier.

From last night when Xie An had held her while sleeping, now it had turned into her pouncing on Xie An like an octopus, not only that, but she was sucking on the other’s earlobe with her mouth open.

Xu Qingzhou: ???

When did she turn into this?

She suspected if Xie An had positioned her like that last night.

She knew she wasn’t a sound sleeper, but not to this extent, right?

“Have you sucked enough?”

Xie An’s voice was a bit hoarse—not that she didn’t want to struggle.

It was mainly because the other had her hands and feet tightly bound like an octopus.

Moreover, Xu Qingzhou was sleeping soundly; she didn’t want to wake her.

But she herself hadn’t slept much all night.

Xu Qingzhou quickly released the other’s earlobe.

“Sorry, sorry.”

Holy crap, she really hadn’t done it on purpose.

She had zero awareness.

Xie An reached up to touch her earlobe; it felt a little sore.

And a bit swollen and red.

Xu Qingzhou glanced over and nearly burst out laughing.

Mainly, her earlobe was red like an apple, almost as big as Maitreya Buddha’s.

But thinking it was her handiwork, she held back the laughter.

Xie An saw through her thoughts at a glance.

“If you want to laugh, just laugh. Don’t hold it in.”

“Hahaha… It’s a bit immoral… but it’s really funny… To make up for it, I’ll make breakfast. After we eat, come with me to the recording studio. It was so hard to schedule both you and Fu Yanxi’s big shots at the same time. Once we finish recording, I can finally rest.”

Xu Qingzhou kept sneaking laughs.

She hurried off the bed, put on her shoes, and walked out of the room.

Her laughter still echoed in the living room.

Xie An also looked down and smiled.

Xu Qingzhou’s laugh sounded like a duck.

Quack quack.

Carefree, unreserved, never playing by the rules.

She never showed vulnerability in front of her, but she knew the other’s vulnerabilities.

Over these ten years, every year on the anniversary of Xu Qingzhou’s parents’ death.

She would go over to check.

She wanted the uncle and aunt in heaven to know their daughter was doing well, that someone was thinking of her.
