So, You’re the Henpecked One? 36

Chapter 36

Chu Xihuan looked up at Lin Zhao, who was almost half on top of her, and pinched her cheek with a slight smile. “Don’t you think you’re a lot of trouble every night?”

Every night, she had to go through this with her. There were always all sorts of reasons to keep her from sleeping properly. Was this person just too energetic, or did she have too many thoughts!

“A lot of trouble every night?” Lin Zhao repeated her words, looking at her with an innocent and confused expression. “Am I? Isn’t this normal?”

“Normal?” Chu Xihuan almost laughed in anger. “Where did you get the idea that this is normal?”

Her taking a mile when given an inch every night, either wanting to kiss or hug, was that normal?

“Of course it’s normal!” Lin Zhao nodded vigorously and started to explain. “Think about it. During the day, we both have our own things to do, and we have so little time together. The only time we can spend quality time together without being disturbed is before we go to sleep, right?”

“So many people will chat and be intimate at this time!”

Lin Zhao even said it with such conviction.

Chu Xihuan was speechless.

She looked at the person in front of her with amusement. It was a wonder that this person’s brain could come up with these words.

“So will there be a kiss today?” Lin Zhao was unwilling to give up on this matter. After all, it was so rare to get a kiss from Xihuan!

Without that burst of anger, Lin Zhao now didn’t dare to forcefully kiss her without Xihuan’s permission.

“No,” Chu Xihuan said, closing her eyes with a cold and ruthless expression.

Lin Zhao immediately looked as if she had been struck by lightning, not daring to believe that Xihuan would really be so cold and refuse.

Doesn’t she want to kiss me!

“Xihuan~ Xihuan~ Don’t be like that. Kiss me~”

Lin Zhao pressed her forehead against Chu Xihuan’s shoulder and rubbed against her, while also calling her name in a soft voice.

“I’ve brushed my teeth and even rinsed my mouth with tea. It’s very clean!” Lin Zhao said pitifully. She could still smell the tea in her own mouth. It was very fresh!

Chu Xihuan was speechless.

Lin Zhao’s words were both infuriating and amusing. How could there be such a person? Did she have no sense of shame? To so brazenly ask for a kiss.

But then again, this person was only seventeen, still at an age of impulse and sincerity. To be so brazen seemed to make sense.

Chu Xihuan couldn’t help but be a little dazed. She couldn’t help but wonder if, in a few years, when Lin Zhao was a little older, she would still like to cling to her like this. Would she become mature and steady, and even think that her current behavior was childish?

Chu Xihuan found it difficult to imagine what Lin Zhao would be like in the future. No matter how she thought about it, it seemed a little wrong.

“Xihuan, Xihuan?”

Suddenly, Chu Xihuan was called back to her senses by a series of calls. She opened her eyes and looked at Lin Zhao, who was looking at her with a worried expression, and her throat bobbed.

“You really want to kiss?” Chu Xihuan finally asked Lin Zhao.

At her words, even if Lin Zhao’s brain was not very smart, she knew that there was a chance!

“Mm-hm! I really want to!” Lin Zhao said quickly.

Chu Xihuan took a deep breath, suddenly reached out and wrapped her arm around Lin Zhao’s neck, pulling her down. When she felt Lin Zhao’s lips on hers, Chu Xihuan gave her a couple of pecks on the corner of her lips, which made Lin Zhao’s mind go blank.

However, Chu Xihuan did not stop there. After all, this person had prepared so much beforehand, so it would not be right to disappoint her kindness. So Chu Xihuan’s tongue had already entered Lin Zhao’s mouth, and she could really feel the fresh scent of tea.

Even though she had been kissed by Chu Xihuan before, Lin Zhao found that she still had a hard time getting used to it. She just felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest, and her mind was a blank, with only an instinctive joy and excitement.

And Xihuan was holding her neck…

This realization was so stimulating that Lin Zhao almost lost track of where she was. She dizzily cooperated with Chu Xihuan’s movements, and the last bit of rationality she had left was trying to learn how Xihuan kissed her, so that she could do it better when she kissed Xihuan in the future.

Chu Xihuan didn’t know what Lin Zhao was thinking. After Lin Zhao couldn’t hold on any longer and fell onto her, Chu Xihuan’s one hand was still on Lin Zhao’s neck, while the other was already caressing her head.

Chu Xihuan’s fingertips ran through her hair, occasionally touching and pressing her head. Lin Zhao felt a comfortable, tingling sensation spread through her whole body. She hummed and fell onto Chu Xihuan, but her heart was still clamoring for more.

How could she want more?

Lin Zhao didn’t know.

In the circle she used to hang out in, there were naturally some bad people, and Lin Zhao had been forced to learn a lot of things. But those things were between men and women. Lin Zhao didn’t know what two women could do besides kissing and hugging.

“Mmm, Xi, Xihuan…” Lin Zhao mumbled Chu Xihuan’s name, her hands unconsciously caressing her up and down.

Chu Xihuan’s breathing also became rapid and chaotic. She turned her head to break the kiss with Lin Zhao and panted softly, trying to calm her racing heart.

What was with this Lin Zhao? Kissing her didn’t feel uncomfortable at all. In fact…

A hint of embarrassment appeared in Chu Xihuan’s half-closed eyes.

In fact, she was easily aroused by her.

Lin Zhao was also panting. At this moment, almost her entire body was on top of Chu Xihuan. After her breathing finally calmed down a little, she realized the impropriety of her position and quickly rolled off, lying on her side next to Chu Xihuan. “Xihuan! Did I crush you?” she asked nervously.

She was afraid that she had made Xihuan uncomfortable by lying on top of her, and she was also afraid that Xihuan would not be willing to kiss her in the future.

Chu Xihuan’s breathing had calmed down a lot. She glanced at Lin Zhao with a slightly strange expression. “You’re so thin. It’s not that uncomfortable to be crushed by you.”

This person was tall, but she was really too thin, unhealthily so.

However, hearing her say this, Lin Zhao’s eyes lit up. “Then can I sleep on top of Xihuan in the future!”

Chu Xihuan almost coughed up blood. Unable to bear it any longer, she turned over and gave Lin Zhao a couple of knocks on the head. “Are you a one-track mind! I let you lie on me for a moment and you’re not satisfied. Can you even live if you lie on me all night?” she said in annoyance.

She had previously thought that this person was very easy to please, but sometimes her taking a mile when given an inch was really infuriating.

Lin Zhao subconsciously covered her head, which had been knocked. It was a little painful, which meant that Chu Xihuan had used some force.

Lin Zhao couldn’t help but mutter with a bit of grievance, “You know I’m not smart. Why don’t you just say it clearly.”

And she even called her a one-track mind!

But when she was a child, her mother had called her a scatterbrain. Maybe the two of them should have a fight over whether she was a one-track mind or a scatterbrain.

Chu Xihuan slowly closed her eyes, losing all her strength, not even having the energy to give Lin Zhao a couple more knocks on the head. A sudden sense of desolation rose in her heart.

Why did I marry Lin Zhao so rashly back then!

Not hearing Chu Xihuan’s voice, and not even any movement, Lin Zhao cautiously glanced at her. Seeing that her eyes were closed, she asked in a small voice, “Is Xihuan going to sleep?”

Chu Xihuan was speechless.

She was about to be angered to death, and Lin Zhao thought she was going to sleep.

She didn’t want to say anything more. She just turned over, her back to Lin Zhao. All the desire that had been aroused earlier had been completely washed away by Lin Zhao’s ridiculous actions. All that was left was the urgent need to fall asleep so she wouldn’t have to face it.

However, before she could adjust her mood and fall asleep, a body suddenly pressed against her from behind, and then she was held in an octopus-like embrace.

Chu Xihuan was speechless.

“Xihuan, goodnight~” Lin Zhao whispered in her ear.

All of Chu Xihuan’s previous annoyance suddenly dissipated with her words. She smiled helplessly. She knew that Lin Zhao was just like this. Why was she bothering with her so much?

“Goodnight, Lin Zhao,” Chu Xihuan murmured.

That night, Lin Zhao slept very well. Even in her dreams, it was Xihuan gently coaxing her to sleep.

When she woke up in the morning, Xihuan was still in the same position as when she had fallen asleep last night, and her own one hand was under Xihuan’s neck, while her other hands and feet were on top of Xihuan, still holding her tightly in her arms.

Lin Zhao couldn’t help but press her lips together and smile. She really liked to hold Chu Xihuan in her arms. Xihuan’s body was so soft and comfortable to hold!

Seeing that Chu Xihuan was not yet awake, Lin Zhao carefully withdrew her hands and feet. Although it was very comforting to hold Xihuan like this, it was a little difficult to get up in the morning, as she was afraid of waking her up with her movements.

Lin Zhao tried to be as quiet as possible, but when she tried to pull her arm out from under Chu Xihuan’s neck, she still inevitably woke her up.

Chu Xihuan’s eyelids twitched. She slowly opened her eyes, still with the sleepiness of just waking up, and even her voice was much softer than usual.

“Are you going to work?”

“Mm-hm, Xihuan, you can keep sleeping. You don’t have to get up so early.” Seeing that she was awake, Lin Zhao quickly pulled out her arm and then tucked her in, afraid that if she stayed awake a little longer, she would be completely awake.

Chu Xihuan didn’t speak. She turned over and lay on the bed, her head turned toward Lin Zhao. She watched her get up and get dressed, then carefully and solemnly put the book she had given her in her front lapel, and finally patted it to make sure it wouldn’t fall out.

Chu Xihuan’s expression immediately became much more complicated. Finally, she closed her eyes and pretended not to see.

Poor thing. After stuffing that book in, her chest is even flatter.

Lin Zhao still didn’t know what Chu Xihuan was thinking. After she had finished getting ready, she turned to look at Chu Xihuan and saw that she had already closed her eyes as if she were going to continue sleeping. Lin Zhao hesitated for a moment, then came to the side of the bed and squatted down, her hands on the edge of the bed, looking at Chu Xihuan and asking cautiously, “Xihuan, can I kiss you?”

She felt that if she could kiss Xihuan in the morning, she would definitely be very motivated all day!

Chu Xihuan, whose heart had already been rising a little when she approached, was speechless.

Sure enough, nothing good ever came of this person getting close.

She opened her eyes and saw Lin Zhao’s eager and very desirous expression.

This person, could she even sleep like this? Anyway, Chu Xihuan was completely awake.

“No…” Chu Xihuan started to say, but couldn’t continue, because Lin Zhao’s eyes were even more pitiful.

Chu Xihuan was speechless.

“Go ahead and kiss me.”

Chu Xihuan gave up. She had a feeling that if she refused Lin Zhao this time, her pitiful eyes would haunt her all day.
