Chapter 942: Chapter 173: Love That Eats Away at the Soul

Second floor.

Tang Yige heard the heavy footsteps of someone coming upstairs, lowered her eyelashes, and exhaled deeply.

When Si Nan came upstairs, Yige pretended to be focused on fiddling with the needle and thread in her hands.

Si Nan stood at the top of the stairs, staring at Tang Yige’s delicate profile for a few seconds, then went to the bathroom.

Tang Yige bit her lip and closed her eyes.

When the sound of water trickling from the bathroom came out, Tang Yige’s heart suddenly jumped twice, her eyes fixed on the needle and thread in her hand, inexplicably heated.

Her conscious nerves seemed confused, unable to focus on her work.

...

About ten minutes later, a man’s clear voice came from the bathroom, "Yiyi."

Tang Yige tightly gripped the smooth fabric in her hand, turned to stare at the frosted glass door of the bathroom, "What?"

"The towel is too short, is there a longer one?" Si Nan’s voice was somewhat conflicted.

A longer one?

Tang Yige hesitated for a moment, blinked, and said, "Seems like there isn’t."

After Tang Yige spoke, she waited for quite a while and did not hear Si Nan’s voice.

"...Why don’t you just wear your shirt?" Tang Yige said.

"It’s dirty!"

Si Nan sounded frustrated.

Tang Yige, "..."

Dirty is better than nothing, right?

"Forget it, I won’t wear it." Si Nan said.

"How could that be?"

Tang Yige widened her eyes and spoke loudly.

Si Nan was silent again.

Tang Yige frowned and suddenly stood up from her swivel chair, really fearing that he might come out wearing nothing.

"Si..."

Swoosh—

Just as Tang Yige was about to speak, the bathroom door opened in front of her.

Tang Yige instinctively widened her eyes, holding her breath as she stared at the man walking out from the light white mist.

The man was bare-chested, his arm and shoulder muscles robust and firm, his chest muscles beautifully tight, with a six-pack on his abdomen that many men envy, showing off the beauty of male strength.

And those two irresistible lines for women... extending down from his pelvic bones...

Tang Yige’s gaze was going downward.

"Do you like what you see?"

Just then.

The man’s playful and magnetic voice swept in front.

Tang Yige’s facial expression froze, and the next second, her face turned bright red, anxiously and puzzled, she lifted her head, staring at Si Nan with innocent big eyes, "I, I didn’t, didn’t see anything. Besides, there’s, there’s nothing to look at."

Si Nan chuckled, coming out of the bathroom, carrying steam and hormones, and walked to Yige, leaned down slightly, tapped Yige’s chin with his finger, the corner of his mouth curled wickedly, "You’re stuttering, yet you say you didn’t peek."

Tang Yige’s eyebrows felt like they were burning, she stepped back two paces with her legs, resting her hands on the work table behind her, her eyes darting everywhere but not landing on Si Nan.

Si Nan gazed at Yige’s intensely red cheeks, his eyes suddenly darkening, stepped forward, wrapped her soft waist with his arm, lowered his head, and his scorching lips landed precisely.

When his warm lips pressed onto hers, Tang Yige instinctively closed her eyes, and her hands that were resting on the table behind her curled slightly.

Seeing this, Si Nan embraced her waist tighter, his warm lips brushing tenderly over her lips, then slid in through the gap between her lips.

Tang Yige closed her eyes even tighter, her eyelashes lifted higher due to her eyes being tightly shut.

This kiss was gentler and more lingering than ever.

Si Nan showed extreme patience and skill; as Tang Yige slowly relaxed and felt it, his kiss suddenly intensified.

Her waist was firmly grasped by him, pulling her snugly against him; not satisfied, Si Nan grabbed one of Tang Yige’s wrists, placed it around his neck, urging her to hold him tightly.

Tang Yige’s breathing was dense, and in a short while, a thin layer of sweat covered her body.

Her face flushed as if it had been steamed over hot water.

Si Nan obsessively stared at Tang Yige’s face, the more chaotic his kissing became, pressing thickly and urgently against her lips.

Tang Yige winced from the pain, her eyelashes fluttered, gradually opening into a slit.

Through the mist, staring at the handsome face just inches away.

Beads of sweat hung on Si Nan’s forehead, the flush on his face equally prominent as that on Tang Yige’s.

Tang Yige’s heart trembled, swiftly closing her eyes again.

The hand resting on the table moved slightly, slowly lifting, and tenderly, reservedly encircling his waist.

"Yiyi..."

Si Nan’s back shuddered, and his lips pressed against Tang Yige’s lips, his dark pupils surging with deep intensity, tightly fixed on Tang Yige.

Immediately following, he supported Tang Yige’s waist from behind and suddenly pulled her forward.

Ah...

Tang Yige shouted in her heart.

The foreign object pressed against her waist and abdomen made her whole body tremble violently.

Her tightly closed eyes wished to seal shut forever, never to open again.

Si Nan stared at Yige’s shy appearance, his adam’s apple moved up and down, and then he suddenly lifted Yige and strode toward the bed, collapsing onto the soft big bed along with himself.

...

Tang Yige felt like she was being fried in oil, her whole body was drenched in sweat.

Every inch of her skin could still feel the warmth and pressure of his thin lips, tightly wrapped in his embrace, Tang Yige continued to tremble.

Si Nan’s long legs trapped Tang Yige in between, his strong arms encircled her, the two pressed tightly against one another.

From time to time, Si Nan would lower his head, kissing her hair and forehead, treating her with such regard and affection.

Tang Yige shifted her flushed face slightly from his equally blazing chest, her head bowed as she breathed.

After all, it’s winter now, the weather is cold.

Si Nan paused, freeing one hand to grab the nearby duvet and cover the two of them, then, he wrapped his arms tightly around Yige again.

Despite that earlier chaos, nothing substantial had happened, yet it wasn’t much different from something actually happening.

Both were sweating, sticky.

At this moment, they were pressed even more tightly together, that sticky feeling intensified.

Tang Yige blinked lightly and whispered on his chest, "I want to take a shower."

"Not tonight, I don’t mind," Si Nan said, lowering his head to kiss her forehead.

Tang Yige sighed, "I’m uncomfortable, too sticky."

"What’s sticky? I didn’t do anything," Si Nan lowered his head, nudging Yige’s head leaning against his chest with his forehead, his thin lips against her ear as he breathed, his prominent nose wing intimately brushed against her ear, his voice hoarse and teasing.

What do you mean didn’t do anything?

Except for the last step~~~ he did everything else!

Tang Yige angrily opened her mouth, vengefully biting his shoulder but couldn’t bring herself to bite hard.

"Tsk. Bite lower. No feeling here."

Si Nan chuckled hoarsely with his lips against Tang Yige’s ear.

Tang Yige, "..." Suddenly felt that Si Nan was invincible when being risque! Wasted that pure, extraordinary outer appearance!

"Hurry up." Si Nan opened his mouth and took her earlobe, seductively whispering in her ear.

"... Get lost." Tang Yige blushed, clenched her fists, and playfully punched him twice, her voice coquettish.

Si Nan took a deep breath and held Yige tighter, unwilling to let go no matter what she said.

Tang Yige had no choice.

She had to abandon the idea of taking a shower, relax, and find a comfortable position to snuggle in his arms.

"Yiyi."

"... Hmm?" Tang Yige just closed her eyes when she heard him call softly, confused, she opened her eyes again.

"I love you!"

Si Nan kissed her ear, his voice deep, yet full of emotion.

Tang Yige’s eyes trembled, her heart swelled with a sudden fullness.

Yige didn’t speak, only pulled her hands from between them and wrapped them around his waist.

Si Nan squeezed Tang Yige into his arms once more, saying, "I’m sorry."

Tang Yige’s eyes suddenly felt warm.

"Trust me."

Si Nan tightly closed his eyes, burying his head deep into Yige’s neck.

Tang Yige’s lips quivered, and after a while, she raised her hand, gently stroking his head from behind.

That night, Si Nan and Tang Yige slept soundly, dreamless, yet peaceful and warm.

...

The next day.

Tang Yige was awakened by a series of kisses.

She breathed lightly and opened her sleepy eyes, the handsome face in her view made Tang Yige fall into a momentary daze.

After the daze, a smile gradually appeared in her eyes as she raised her arms to wrap around his neck...
