Chapter 87 Part 1

Hot breaths intertwined with each other.

Chi Nuan’s lips and teeth carried the fragrance of wine. This floral fruity aroma made her kiss taste exceptionally sweet, the sweet aftertaste slamming into her heart. Gu Ningzi unconsciously widened her eyes. She held Chi Nuan’s waist, causing their lips to briefly separate.

Chi Nuan was like a coquettish cat, finding her position in Gu Ningzi’s embrace and continuing to cling to her alluring red lips.

A shallow taste was far from enough. Her tongue tip swept into the seam of her lips. Gu Ningzi opened her mouth, and the intense floral fruity sweetness instantly invaded all of her senses.

—No wonder she could never find the wine from her memories. What her brain remembered wasn’t the taste of the wine itself, but in that tipsy state, Chi Nuan’s tender sweetness and her own pounding heart.

She must have loved the person before her so much in the past.

Gu Ningzi pulled them apart a tiny distance again. She pressed her forehead against Chi Nuan’s and lightly rubbed their noses. “If we keep going like this, you won’t be able to leave.”

The suggestive whisper scraped across her heart. Chi Nuan’s face flushed red as she removed Gu Ningzi’s glasses for her.

Gu Ningzi’s deep eyes gazed at Chi Nuan, watching the blush on her face layer by layer like a watercolor painting. Her eyelashes were still wet, but all the exposed skin had turned red—whether from the wine or shyness, she didn’t know.

Gu Ningzi leaned close to Chi Nuan’s ear. Her fingertip started from Chi Nuan’s neck and slowly slid down to the first button of her pajamas. Her finger lingered there, the button half-undone, as she took Chi Nuan’s earlobe into her mouth and lightly sucked. In a low voice, she murmured, “Is this what you mean?”

…

Gu Ningzi puzzledly furrowed her brow, while Chi Nuan’s eyes grew wet again at those words. She covered Gu Ningzi’s finger with her own and undid that button together.

…

In the darkened room, Chi Nuan bit her lower lip tightly, but soft moans still slipped out, leaking into Gu Ningzi’s ears.

Gu Ningzi’s entire hand was wet. She lowered her head and gently kissed Chi Nuan, sealing all her sounds inside her own mouth.

No advanced techniques were needed. Even just instinctive exploration was enough to quickly satisfy Chi Nuan’s sensitive body.

Moonlight illuminated the thin sheen of sweat on her forehead from arousal. Chi Nuan panted lightly and flipped over to straddle above Gu Ningzi.

Her cascading long hair brushed Gu Ningzi’s eye corner. Gu Ningzi closed her eyes briefly, and when she opened them again, Chi Nuan had brushed her hair to one side.

Gu Ningzi stared at her fixedly.

Chi Nuan cupped Gu Ningzi’s face and began kissing her from the forehead, inch by inch, as precious as jewels.

Their soft bodies pressed tightly together. For two people in love to possess each other like this was the happiest thing in the world.

Gu Ningzi called softly, “…Chi Nuan.”

Her voice carried a nasal tone, sounding husky. Chi Nuan looked up and, by the moonlight, saw the glimmer of tears at the corner of Gu Ningzi’s eyes.

Her movements paused involuntarily. Heart aching, Chi Nuan asked, “Did I hurt you?”

Gu Ningzi shook her head and called again in a low voice, “Chi Nuan.”

Chi Nuan slowed her pace and kissed away her tears. “Mm?”

Gu Ningzi: “Chi Nuan.”

Chi Nuan found her lips. “Mm.”

That night, the two demanded each other tirelessly until dawn.

The mental relaxation combined with physical exhaustion made Chi Nuan sleep deeply. When she woke, she was nestled in Gu Ningzi’s arms.

Sunlight streamed in from the window.

Gu Ningzi held her from behind, though it was unclear if she was asleep or awake. Chi Nuan stretched her arm to reach for Gu Ningzi’s watch on the bedside table to check the time. But as soon as she moved, Gu Ningzi’s voice sounded: “I dreamed that when I woke up, you were by my side.”

Gu Ningzi nuzzled Chi Nuan’s neck and murmured, “So it wasn’t a dream.”

I’ve dreamed it countless times too—opening my eyes and seeing you right there. Chi Nuan’s heart ached sourly. She turned to kiss Gu Ningzi, whose response was intense, instantly pulling Chi Nuan back into a haze of passion.

“…”

Reason struggled back. Chi Nuan said, “…Gu Ningzi, we have to take Little Wutong to school, mmph—mmph, what time is it now? Has he gotten up yet?”

She reached for the watch again, but Gu Ningzi propped herself up and pulled her back. “At this time, his first class is almost over.”

Chi Nuan: “…”

Chi Nuan: “He’s already gone to school?”

Gu Ningzi: “Mm.”

Chi Nuan: “Did you take him?”

Gu Ningzi looked at her face. “You were sleeping so soundly; I couldn’t bear to wake you.”

Chi Nuan held it in for a moment but couldn’t hold back. Shyly closing her eyes to speak, she said, “I was worn out.”

The soreness between her legs reminded her just how intimately they’d been together. Chi Nuan wasn’t lying; she really was worn out.

Gu Ningzi replied, “…I’m worn out too.”

“…” Chi Nuan’s ear tips turned bright red, leaving her speechless.

The house inside and out was completely quiet. Gu Ningzi’s fingers walked like little people along Chi Nuan’s arm. Chi Nuan was ticklish and laughed as she said, “You have so many things scheduled today. If you don’t head out soon, you’ll be late.”

Gu Ningzi: “Canceled them.”

Chi Nuan exclaimed in surprise: “Canceled?”

Gu Ningzi’s little person followed her arm and settled at Chi Nuan’s waist. “I won’t let myself get that busy anymore.”

Is this because she wants to spend time with me?

Light sparkled in Chi Nuan’s eyes. She was touched and happy but didn’t say it.

Gu Ningzi’s dimples showed as her little person slipped through the seam of her clothes into Chi Nuan’s pajamas. “Want breakfast first? Or…”

Chi Nuan nestled against her and murmured softly, “…Not yet…”

…

The two spent a day glued to each other. Fearing they’d be late to pick up Little Wutong for dinner if they kept lingering, they parted to shower.
