After Meng Chu said those words, she no longer waited passively.
Instead, she lightly stood on tiptoe and, a little recklessly and tremblingly, kissed Cheng Jinyu’s lips.
This made Meng Chu nervous and restless, but Cheng Jinyu’s breathing beside her ear also became disordered at once.
His deep and slow breathing rumbled past her ears like thunder.
Sure enough, he was not always so calm.
When she clearly felt that she could also bring obvious changes to Cheng Jinyu, Meng Chu seemed encouraged.
Her tongue tip learned from what he had done before and directly slipped into his lips.
Her overly inexperienced yet proactive action made Cheng Jinyu’s blood heat up instantly.
He reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist, his palm rubbing her lower back.
It seemed he wanted to pour out all the longing from these past days.
Intimate physical contact was tempting.
At first it was just a taste, but as it deepened, it began to feel insufficient.
That emotion of wanting more reached its peak.
None of the lights in the entire home had been turned on yet.
The huge space was not completely pitch-black.
Outside the floor-to-ceiling window at the end of the living room, silver-white moonlight fell in without restraint.
On the distant river surface, it seemed pitch-black, but occasionally the silver light falling on the water refracted into faint, flickering ripples.
But all around was silent, and the sound of their breathing grew heavier and heavier.
Finally, Cheng Jinyu reached out and held the base of Meng Chu’s thighs, lifting her up directly.
Meng Chu had never expected him to do this, and instinctively wrapped her legs around his waist.
“Am I too heavy?” Meng Chu suddenly let go and asked in a low voice.
This posture completely supported her weight on his body. Without some arm strength, one really would not dare do this casually.
Cheng Jinyu slightly raised his head to look at her, a little amused and annoyed: “Underestimating me?”
Meng Chu shook her head, lowered her head, and kissed his lips. “The journey was so tiring. I’m afraid of wearing you out.”
She coaxed him in a low voice.
Cheng Jinyu held her with both hands, pressed her against the wall, and kissed her again.
While kissing, he said in a low voice: “Want to try how long I can last?”
‘Now?’
Meng Chu did not dare speak again, afraid of provoking him further.
Perhaps Cheng Jinyu really had gotten competitive in his heart.
He lowered his head and sought her lips.
This time he was not in a hurry, with a leisurely feeling, as if deliberately teasing Meng Chu.
As soon as his lips drew close and kissed her once, he pulled back a little.
Then he slowly hooked her into another kiss, teasingly, back and forth.
Meng Chu felt he was like someone playing with a cat teaser, and she was the cat being lured, toyed with up and down by him.
Her heartbeat was fierce and rapid, never easing.
The two of them kissed lingeringly at the entrance, as if it would never be enough, carrying a longing that made even the tips of one’s heart tremble, drawing in everything from each other.
In the end, Meng Chu was the first who could not hold on.
She hooked her arms around his neck and said in a low voice: “How about we go back to the room.”
Her suggestion made Cheng Jinyu let out a short laugh.
The laugh was short, but it hid a hint of smugness.
Meng Chu was about to speak, but her whole person had already been carried away.
Cheng Jinyu’s palms held her thighs tightly.
The warmth of his palms kept passing to the inner side of her thighs.
This place was naturally a little sensitive and had never been touched before.
At this moment, he carried her directly toward the room.
After twisting the door handle, he walked to the bedside.
Cheng Jinyu first knelt on one leg beside the bed, using it as support, and gently laid her on the bed.
His movements were gentle and delicate now, filled with tenderness toward her.
Meng Chu had thought everything would be so gentle, but when her back had just touched the bed and she had just lain down, Cheng Jinyu’s body also pressed down.
That airtight feeling surged from all directions, and her whole person was covered beneath him.
Cheng Jinyu propped his hands on both sides of her body and did not fully press his body down.
But Meng Chu could feel that even if she merely breathed simply, her slightly rising and falling chest had already drawn close to his body.
“Did you miss me?” Cheng Jinyu asked.
Although he had already known the answer to this question long ago.
But he still wanted to ask it face to face once more, like a child eating candy, one bite after another.
Always wanting another taste.
Even Cheng Jinyu wanted to taste it once more.
Meng Chu said in a low voice: “I missed you.”
Cheng Jinyu looked down at her from above, his voice hoarse beyond recognition: “Where did you miss me most?”
Meng Chu did not speak. After a moment, Cheng Jinyu felt his palm touched by a hand.
Then that hand grasped his fingers, as if guiding him, and pulled his hand up until it was placed over her heart.
“Here.”
That was where her heart was.
Cheng Jinyu’s palm pressed against her chest.
Through the thin layer of her shirt, along with her flesh and bones, he could feel that heart beating continuously.
Beneath her violent heartbeat, Cheng Jinyu’s kiss fell again.
Hot and damp, with a fierce intensity that seemed to devour her.
It felt as if all the oxygen in Meng Chu’s brain was about to be drawn away.
Until both of their outer clothes were taken off, Meng.
Her sweater was a little form-fitting, wrapping her body.
Even though she was so thin, the line.
“How about I take a shower first,” Meng Chu suddenly caught his lips and said in a low voice.
Cheng Jinyu was slightly stunned, then “
After a while, Meng Chu took her pajamas, with a bit of a fleeing-away air.
Cheng Jinyu, by contrast, leaned against her headboard, listening to the sound of water coming from the bathroom in her room.
When Meng Chu came out, she found that Cheng Jinyu was gone.
He had probably gone back to his own room to shower.
Meng Chu leaned against the headboard and waited for quite a while.
Seeing that he still had not returned, she continued playing on her phone.
But she did not know whether it was because it was nearly twelve o’clock and her biological clock had arrived.
Or because she had handled too many things today.
Even though her eyes were fixed on the phone, she still could not help feeling drowsy.
When Cheng Jinyu returned, he saw her holding her phone, eyes looking as if she was about to fall asleep.
He lifted the blanket and gently got into bed.
Meng Chu beside him seemed to sense something.
She reached out and hugged him.
But Cheng Jinyu said close to her ear: “Go to sleep early.”
Meng Chu raised her head to look at him.
She was clearly so sleepy and muddled that she could barely stand it, yet she still forced her eyes open.
This made Cheng Jinyu chuckle again.
“This weekend, let’s go to your home,” Cheng Jinyu suddenly said.
Meng Chu did not understand why he suddenly brought this up.
But soon, she seemed to understand all at once.
He wanted to meet her mother first.
She leaned in his arms and laughed softly: “Cheng Jinyu, you’re quite into rituals.”
Even for something like this, he could hold it in until he had met his mother-in-law.
But Meng Chu could understand his sense of ritual.
After all, if he were really casual, he would not be the Cheng Jinyu he was now.
There were plenty of people in this world who wanted to trick girls into bed anytime, anywhere.
But there were also rare ones like Cheng Jinyu.
The more he treasured something, the less he wanted to be careless.
Meng Chu said in a low voice: “Sorry.”
Cheng Jinyu gave an “Mm”: “Why say that?”
“For making your marriage so lacking in ritual,” Meng Chu said with a low laugh.
Looking back now, she still found it strange.
Someone like Cheng Jinyu had actually agreed to such a hasty marriage.
After some unknown amount of time, her breathing became steady again.
It was the kind that entered sleep.
But this time, Meng Chu did not completely fall asleep.
She only felt her whole body being held, with an endless warmth coming from beside her.
And that very familiar voice seemed to say something by her ear.
“Marrying you is the greatest ritual of all.”
When she woke in the morning, Meng Chu was awakened by the alarm clock.
She set an alarm every day to wake herself up.
After all, the curtains in the room at home were especially blackout, the kind that blocked every trace of light outside.
So if she did not set an alarm, she would have no idea what time it was after waking.
She reached out to feel the bedside table and finally found her phone.
After she turned off the alarm, she saw that Cheng Jinyu beside her was still sleeping.
Actually, his biological clock was usually earlier than Meng Chu’s.
He was the kind who could get up early and run for half an hour.
It was said that successful people were all high-energy people, able to maintain abundant energy even if they slept only a few hours a day.
Cheng Jinyu was a typical example of this.
So previously, when he was at home, he made breakfast for both of them.
Today, he had unexpectedly not gotten up.
Meng Chu understood after a moment.
He was probably still adjusting to the time difference.
After all, he had just returned from America.
His time difference probably had not fully adjusted yet.
She was just about to lift the blanket and get up, but the person beside her, who had been motionless, suddenly reached out and hugged her.
“Awake?” Meng Chu asked softly.
“Not yet.” His muffled voice sounded.
Meng Chu was amused by him. He really was rarely like this.
Even Meng Chu could not help softening her voice to coax him: “Sleep a little longer.”
“Stay with me,” Cheng Jinyu said, reaching out to hug her.
Meng Chu glanced at her phone. It was still early, and she was not in a hurry, so she let him hold her.
Unexpectedly, lying like this, she actually fell asleep again.
When she woke up again, she reached out to check the time.
The huge and clear numbers on the phone screen
–11:46.3
Ah ah ah ah.
Meng Chu sat up abruptly, looking at her phone in disbelief.
Sure enough, there were already several missed calls on her phone.
Unfortunately, last night, in order not to let others disturb her private time with Cheng Jinyu, she had specially put her phone on silent.
All calls and messages were silenced.
Cheng Jinyu beside her happened to wake up at this time.
He saw her with both hands on top of her head, looking as if she were about to break down.
He sat up and asked: “What’s wrong?”
“Look at what time it is,” Meng Chu held her phone up in front of him.
Cheng Jinyu glanced at it and raised an eyebrow: “We actually slept until this hour.”
“Yeah, we did nothing and slept until now,” Meng Chu said, a little broken down.
But after saying this, she paused at once.
The room was filled with the dead silence after saying the wrong thing. Meng Chu blinked.
She wanted to gloss it over.
But the deep voice sounded at just the right time, only this voice carried a full measure of subtlety: “Sorry, I did not know you were so eager.”
Meng Chu pressed her fingers to her forehead.
‘She knew it!’
“I didn’t either,” Meng Chu weakly defended herself.
Cheng Jinyu laughed softly and suggested: “How about I make it up now?”
‘Make… make it up?’
‘Make up what?’
‘There was even making up for this kind of thing.’
Meng Chu immediately lifted the blanket, left the bed directly, and ran into the bathroom.
When she came out, Cheng Jinyu was also gone.
He had probably gone back to his own room to wash up.
But ever since the two of them had lived together, his own room had only retained the function of his daily washing up.
Thinking of what he had suggested in a low voice just now, Meng Chu’s heart could not help jumping wildly.
‘No waiting after the time passes, okay.’
‘It made her seem as if she were the more impatient one.’
Meng Chu decided that she now also had to maintain an unshakable state.
She also cared a lot about atmosphere and ritual.
After a while, after she changed her clothes, she walked out of the room.
She saw that familiar sounds were indeed coming from the kitchen.
