Chapter 89
When Xiao Chen's message popped up in the parents' group chat, Yu Na couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She opened their private chat and typed: "You in the group-"
Before she could finish typing the sentence, there was a "click" sound from the door.
Xiao Chen was back.
Yu Na quickly put down her phone and trotted over to Xiao Chen.
After changing his shoes, Xiao Chen opened his arms towards her. As Yu Na jumped into his embrace, he took the chance to lift her up, holding her by the waist and pressing her against the wall. "What's so funny?"
Yu Na wrapped her legs tightly around his waist, one hand holding his neck while the other poked his face, grinning from ear to ear as she asked: "Why were you causing trouble in the group chat?"
Xiao Chen acted nonchalant: "You call that causing trouble? As a parent, can't I show some concern for the teacher?"
Pinned between Xiao Chen and the wall, Yu Na let him kiss her lips and gently nibble on her neck.
She could only weakly hold onto his shoulders, occasionally letting out soft sounds.
Eventually Xiao Chen was satisfied and stopped, but he didn't put her down. If anything, he held her even tighter now, bringing her body infinitely close to his own.
His Adam's apple bobbed up and down. "Go get changed. I'll take you out for Japanese food, didn't you keep saying you wanted some the past few days?"
"I don't want to go out today," Yu Na turned her head and gestured towards the dining room with her chin. "I already made dinner, I was just waiting for you to come back."
"You made dinner?" Xiao Chen teased. "Let me guess, sweet and sour potato chips again? Did you cut your hand this time?"
Yu Na shot him a glare. "Ignore you! Put me down!"
Of course Xiao Chen wouldn't let go. Taking advantage of their positions, he recklessly took more liberties with her.
Yu Na's punches and scratches were useless against him. Her strength was no match for Xiao Chen.
Still carrying her, Xiao Chen brought them to the dining room.
Three dishes were laid out on the table. The presentation was still mediocre, but better than her first attempt. Each dish had a clear heat retention cover over it.
Yu Na took off the covers. "I bought these online, the heat retention is pretty good."
Without waiting for Xiao Chen's response, she hurriedly ran into the kitchen, opened the rice cooker, and started scooping rice into bowls.
Just then, Yu Na suddenly felt her back bump into his chest. She stopped moving. "What's wrong?"
Xiao Chen hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder. "If you want to eat at home, I can hire an auntie. You can just relax and enjoy yourself at home."
"Hire an auntie?" The hairs on Yu Na's neck stood up. "No way, the words 'auntie' and 'maid' freak me out."
"I meant someone professional who doesn't live with us, just helps out with cooking and cleaning."
"Still no. I like our little world for two."
Sensing something amiss, Yu Na craned her neck to glare at him. "Are you looking down on my cooking skills?"
Xiao Chen: ?
He laughed in exasperation, giving her waist a hard pinch. "Ungrateful girl, why don't you say I can't bear to make you do housework instead?"
Seeing him act all serious, Yu Na became even bolder. "As if anyone would believe that!"
"..."
With a hint of vengeance, he said slowly: "You'll get what's coming tonight."
After showering separately at night, Xiao Chen got into bed.
Yu Na always took a long time showering. He would peek towards the bathroom every so often.
It was a while before sounds came from the bathroom.
By the time Yu Na came back to the bedroom, her hair was already blow dried.
Something seemed off about her expression, but she didn't say anything. She turned off the lights, leaving only a bedside lamp on, then climbed into bed and snuggled into Xiao Chen's arms.
The scent of body lotion filled the air.
Xiao Chen slid his arm under her head, pulling her towards himself.
Long, thirsty kisses rained down on her forehead, eyes, and nose, before finally landing on her lips, as if saving the climax for last.
The two kissed passionately, filled with tender feelings. Yu Na's hand wandered uncontrollably, gliding restlessly over Xiao Chen's firm, smooth back, her fingertips tracing the lines of his broad shoulders.
Xiao Chen took off his T-shirt and leaned down again.
With eyes closed, Yu Na was completely passive, solely focused on feeling.
Until she heard the crinkling sound of a plastic package. Yu Na immediately grabbed his arm. "Xiao Chen..."
"What's wrong?" Xiao Chen kissed the corner of her mouth. "Don't want to today?"
"It's not that I don't want to," she bit her lip. "It's that we can't."
Xiao Chen: ?
He hesitated for a moment before realizing. "Wasn't it...still more than a week away?"
"It came early. I only just noticed..."
Xiao Chen: "..."
"You did that on purpose!" Xiao Chen pinched her face, lecturing her from above. "If we couldn't, why were you seducing me just now? Hmm?"
Xiao Chen got off of her and obediently lay down by her side.
Yu Na turned to face him, caressing his face with her hand. "I was going to say something, but...who told your kissing skills to be so good?"
"Tsk," Xiao Chen laughed in exasperation. "My bad, my bad."
"It really is your fault..."
Xiao Chen: ?
Lacking confidence, Yu Na stubbornly argued: "If you didn't kiss me, I wouldn't have kissed you either."
Too lazy to respond, Xiao Chen gave a perfunctory "uh huh".
"Are you mad?"
Xiao Chen turned his back towards her. "Going to sleep."
"Even if we can't...you can still kiss me."
"I'm not kissing you."
"Then can I kiss you?"
"No kisses for you."
Yu Na's hand glided over his abs as she moved closer, kissing his cheek as she murmured: "Baby, are you very frustrated?"
"What do you think?"
Yu Na didn't answer. She forcibly turned him onto his back.
...
Her hands wandered unrestrainedly, unwilling to neglect any part of his body.
Xiao Chen's heartbeat grew increasingly out of control, pounding erratically.
Suddenly, all his emotions and sensations were firmly gripped by her in an instant.
Yu Na lowered her head, densely covering his lips with kisses. The room was perfectly quiet, making his heavy breathing clearly audible now.
The slightly cool sensation of her palms and fingertips brushing over him made his brain short circuit and turn blank, before finally crashing.
For the first time, he was so helpless, his hands resting on her slender waist, gently caressing back and forth.
Xiao Chen carried Yu Na horizontally into the bathroom. After washing his hands, they returned to the bedroom.
The inexplicable sulking from before was now long gone.
Snuggled in his arms, Yu Na was too shy to even lift her head.
Xiao Chen's ears were also somewhat red.
The two silently gazed at each other for some time, before finally moving closer by some tacit understanding, dissolving the silence with gentle, lingering kisses.
The kisses were intermittent. Yu Na suddenly stopped and said: "Oh no..."
Xiao Chen: "Hm?"
Yu Na: "My stomach hurts a bit."
"Let me rub it for you."
Xiao Chen gently massaged her stomach.
As if by magic, Yu Na quickly felt better, blissfully relaxing in his embrace as she shamelessly enjoyed herself.
But she suddenly noticed his hand wandering elsewhere.
"You pervert!"
The shameless man calmly returned to his original position. "Oh, I thought the top part needed rubbing too."
Yu Na: ?
