Mei stretched, her beautiful figure fully on display. She leaned back in her seat, and once the excitement of seeing her lover had passed, endless drowsiness followed.
During the three-day mathematical modeling competition, her brain had been running almost every second, draining her energy. It had also been difficult to get a good night's sleep.
Considering her condition, the fact that she had not simply fallen asleep the moment she touched the seat was already giving Xu Qi a lot of face.
Not long afterward, Xu Qi could even hear her soft snores.
Mei did not snore in her sleep. That meant she was truly exhausted.
Xu Qi watched her, feeling a little sorry for her.
······
Her eyelashes fluttered once or twice before Mei slowly opened her eyes. She felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation and comfort.
Although she had slept in the car, it felt far more comfortable than sleeping at school.
But now that she thought about it... Had they arrived? Why had the car been stopped the whole time?
Mei sat up groggily. Only when she rose did she notice that someone had draped a coat over her and reclined her seat so she could sleep more comfortably.
Xu Qi...
She looked out through the car window and finally realized that they had already arrived at the underground parking garage of the Golden Courtyard.
She turned her head and happened to see Xu Qi dozing with his arms crossed, leaning against his seat.
She checked the time again. It was already past eleven.
They had gotten into the car a little after nine in the morning, and the drive from the school to the Golden Courtyard took only a little over half an hour. In other words... Xu Qi had sat there quietly waiting for her to wake up so she could get a good night's sleep.
Mei had woken up, but he had fallen asleep instead...
Mei slowly turned sideways, her emotions surging like waves.
"Mm..."
Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but Xu Qi also slowly opened his eyes and woke up. The first thing he did was look toward Mei with his still-groggy eyes.
"Hm? Ah, you're awake, Mei."
"Mm, I woke up."
Xu Qi smiled and rubbed Mei's little head.
"Then let's get out of the car first. Ngh!..."
Mei hugged Xu Qi tightly, then pressed her lips firmly against his. She took the initiative to pry open his teeth, and her nimble, moist tongue slowly slipped inside, seeking out the target that stirred her emotions...
I seem to be getting forcefully kissed by women quite often lately...
Although that thought crossed his mind, Xu Qi still wrapped his arms around Mei.
They had kissed so many times that Xu Qi could barely keep count. There was the familiar fragrance, the familiar youthful feeling, and the familiar inexperienced kissing technique.
They lost themselves in the moment, kissing each other passionately. The only thing Xu Qi felt had changed was Mei's increasingly fiery love.
Mei... really loves me.
"Here's a little reward for you today."
As their lips parted, a crystal-clear thread connected the corners of their mouths. Mei's cheeks were flushed, and she was panting heavily. She felt that this kiss had been far more intense than the ones before.
The state they were both in was rather disheveled.
Mei had naturally felt that warm sensation long ago, but she was unwilling to let Xu Qi stop just like that. A strange feeling continued to stimulate them both.
She even hoped... that their contact could become more direct...
"Does it feel good?"
The moment Mei finished asking, she felt Xu Qi exert a little more force.
That made her unable to contain the embarrassment in her heart. How could an inexperienced girl possibly withstand this?
Xu Qi leaned close to Mei's ear and teased, "You actually dared to ask me that. Are you trying to make me punish you right here in the car?"
Mei's face was already flushed. She gave Xu Qi a coquettish glance.
"I wouldn't dare trouble you with that... It must be hard for you to hold back when no one's helping you..."
Actually, someone had helped him... but Xu Qi did not dare say so.
Xu Qi's expression turned strange.
"Seriously? Here?"
As he spoke, Mei had already begun to move.
Her cool, soft hand only had to touch him lightly to make Xu Qi hold his breath.
"Xu Qi... why are you so good to me?"
It was hard to imagine that, at a moment like this, the girl could still become so sentimental.
Fortunately, Xu Qi was not especially impatient. He reached out and brushed Mei's cheek, smiling as he said, "You're my girlfriend, aren't you?"
Mei looked at Xu Qi before her. They were all such minor things, yet... they moved her beyond words.
Perhaps it was because he had pulled her out of that dark, lightless world and allowed her to see what true radiance was.
After that, no matter what he did, it would be magnified countless times in Mei's eyes.
She liked Xu Qi. She had fallen for him long ago... A willful person, a sincere person, and the person Mei loved.
Imitating Xu Qi, she leaned close to his ear and whispered, "I'll give you a little reward today."
A reward? What kind of reward?
Before Xu Qi could react, he saw Mei slowly bend down—wait! It couldn't be!...
Mei pushed aside the stray strands of hair and first gave him a tentative kiss.
Sometimes she felt that it was truly hard to imagine herself doing something like this. During high school, Mei had not never fantasized about what it would be like to fall in love someday.
She had even read those... somewhat risqué romance novels.
She more or less understood a thing or two about this sort of knowledge. But the part she found most unacceptable was this particular scene.
She could not understand it—wouldn't it be dirty and disgusting? Could anyone really do such a thing?
Not only could she never have imagined doing this herself, even having her lover do it for her would have filled Mei with disgust. She could not understand it. She really could not understand it.
But now... she seemed to understand it a little.
When the love in her heart expanded without limit, and the person she loved was right before her, it turned out... she really could cast aside many of her old prejudices, simply to make Xu Qi feel more comfortable.
Thinking of this, Mei even patted him lightly and said with a smile, "Fortunately, you showered last night. There isn't any strange smell, or I wouldn't have done it."
"Mei... you... hurry up a little..."
Xu Qi sat stiffly in the seat, his face flushed and the veins on his forehead bulging. He did not even dare lower his head to look, because the visual impact would certainly make it even harder for him to endure.
This was somewhat... too torturous for the mind. Xu Qi's voice even sounded a little hoarse.
"Got it, pervert."
Mei rolled her eyes. With a nervous heart, she opened her mouth and slowly took him in...
At that moment, Xu Qi felt as though he had entered a paradise.
······
As a complete novice—or rather, since this was simply her first time—Mei's technique was undeniably clumsy.
At times, her teeth even bumped against him.
But...
Xu Qi had never experienced anyone else's technique, so he had no idea what it felt like when someone was especially skilled at this.
After all, he had only ever seen scenes like this in novels.
Moreover, it was far too stimulating. For Xu Qi, who was still a virgin, it was like being taken to drive an F1 car without ever having driven even a go-kart.
For Mei, it was more like trying to run before she had even learned to walk.
In any case, both of them had skipped ahead rather dramatically.
Even with such a clumsy technique, Xu Qi only managed to hold out for a little over five minutes before surrendering...
His weapon fired quickly, but there was quite a lot of ammunition.
Mei had prepared for this, though. After all, she had seen it a few times during the... little games she and Xu Qi had played over the previous nights.
Her boyfriend probably belonged to the naturally gifted type. It was a little embarrassing to say, but... the books she had read said that one had to be especially careful at times like this. If one did not want to end up in a mess, one had to learn to dodge in advance. Mm... it really was a bit like playing a game.
For Xu Qi, it was probably a first-person shooter...
But... Mei was a beginner.
How could she possibly predict the timing?
As a result... she failed to control the timing properly.
When she straightened up, clarity had returned to both their eyes. Mei helped clean things up with some napkins while complaining, "Next time you're about to finish, could you warn me first?"
"Uh... force majeure, force majeure... You... well..."
Mei nodded and frowned as she recalled.
"What do you mean? Oh, honestly... why does that book even say some people find it delicious? Are they crazy? Why don't they try it themselves?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Qi suddenly pulled Mei into his arms.
Xu Qi hugged her tightly. Mei could feel the emotion contained in that embrace.
"What is it... Why are you suddenly acting like this? You're making me feel embarrassed."
"Mei..."
"Mm?"
"I love you."
The tenderness of that moment surpassed a thousand words.
Mei smiled and lightly patted Xu Qi's back before slowly pushing him away.
"All right, let's go upstairs? Everyone's still waiting for us... Oh, right! Don't let anything slip! If they realize what we did, you're dead!"
Xu Qi raised both hands in surrender.
"Don't worry, don't worry. There won't be any problem. Don't worry."
66, Off to Guangcheng!
At the airport departure hall, a woman wore a black Western-style hat, while a huge pair of sunglasses nearly covered half her face. Even so, she still drew more glances than anyone else in the entire hall.
She wore a white shirt on top and jeans below. Her outfit was utterly ordinary, but it could hardly conceal... the magnificent swell of her chest, which looked as though it might burst through the shirt.
Her fiery red hair cascaded down her back. This older sister named Himeko sat with her legs crossed, habitually observing the flow of people around her.
It could be called an occupational habit.
In any case, she had discovered no abnormal situations. That was what normal looked like... Terrorists could not possibly be plotting some grand scheme every single day, could they?
The incident involving 956 last time had been an extremely unusual case. In Guangcheng, some special police officers might serve their entire lives without encountering a single terrorist attack.
But thinking of that reminded her of Xu Qi...
That night, Himeko had ultimately gone to the blind date as promised. But the moment they met, she saw an oily middle-aged man. She could not say he was unattractive, but the problem was that he seemed to think he was incredibly handsome.
As a result, the man kept making... extremely greasy gestures across the dinner table, nearly making Himeko throw up. Honestly, she could probably claim emotional damages for that.
Clearly, it had been a failed blind date, but the man seemed full of confidence, as if he had already won Himeko over.
After dinner, he had tried to hold Himeko's hand, only for her to instinctively dodge. She then floored him with a whip kick.
Thinking about it now still made her shudder a little—knowing Heaven's will was easy; defying it was the hard part.
Just as she was thinking about this, voices suddenly reached her ears.
"Boss, boss! Hurry up! We can't miss the plane!"
