This is a kind of torture.
After a while, Liang Shi asked her in a low voice, "Xu Qingzhu, is something bothering you at work?"
Because he felt that Xu Qingzhu was angry, Liang Shi was hesitant to use affectionate terms of address, and he was even very careful when calling out the name Xu Qingzhu.
Xu Qingzhu shook her head: "No, everything went smoothly."
They even have plans to acquire small companies.
“Then…” Liang Shi couldn’t think of anything else that could make her angry, and remained silent for a long time.
Xu Qingzhu frowned as she drank half a cup of not-so-tasty milk tea, trying to calm herself down by chewing the sticky tapioca pearls.
It took him quite a while to calm himself down and be able to speak normally to Liang Shi.
She looked at Liang Shi: "Liang Shi, why are you so nice to me?"
Liang Shi was taken aback, seemingly not expecting her to ask such a question.
But she answered almost without hesitation: "You're my wife, who else would I treat well if not you?"
An expected answer.
Xu Qingzhu's slender white fingers pinched the milk tea cup. The PVC cup was almost deformed in her hands, making a slight sound, along with the sound of the milk tea liquid shaking against the cup.
"If your wife were someone else, would you treat her this well?" Xu Qingzhu asked calmly.
Liang Shi was stunned.
She had never thought about this question.
It seems natural that I would like Xu Qingzhu.
All along, it seemed that she was the one taking the initiative to get closer to Xu Qingzhu, but in reality, it was Xu Qingzhu who was constantly being tolerant of her.
Xu Qingzhu is very clever, clever enough to guess the other world and the task she has to complete.
But he didn't ask anything.
Including her coming back.
All of Xu Qingzhu's curiosity could be abruptly extinguished by her silence.
Just like before, she was the one who started it, the one who was aroused first, but she was also the one who withdrew first.
She was someone Liang Shi couldn't figure out.
After a moment, Liang Shi said, "There is no such problem."
“You are my wife, and I will treat you well.” Liang Shi said, “No one else will be my wife, so… it’s only you.”
At this moment, Liang Shi was extremely inarticulate. She didn't know how to organize her words to make Xu Qingzhu understand her feelings, nor did she know how to explain her meaning.
"But what if there is?" Xu Qingzhu said, "If you met someone else, would you still act the same way?"
Xu Qingzhu stared intently at her, making Liang Shi's face flush.
It felt like the embarrassment of not being able to answer a teacher's question during school.
After a long silence, Xu Qingzhu sighed, "Never mind."
She lowered her eyes and took a sip of milk tea, then Liang Shi said, "There are no hypotheticals in this question..."
Xu Qingzhu leaned in and kissed him, passing all the milk tea in her mouth to him, the sweet taste lingering between their teeth.
This shut down all of Liang Shi's inappropriate answers.
Xu Qingzhu's kiss this time was even crazier than before.
He had used almost all his strength, and his breathing was much heavier than before; he almost couldn't breathe several times.
Liang Shi leaned back against the back seat of the car, and Xu Qingzhu's legs were wrapped directly around her waist.
All the water droplets on her lips were swallowed by the other person.
...
A simple kiss brought tears to Xu Qingzhu's eyes, which hung loosely on her eyelashes, making her look so pitiful that she seemed to want to be bullied a little more.
It was only today that Liang Shi finally understood what it meant to tie a cherry in a knot with the tip of your tongue, and unlocked the correct way to enjoy it.
Xu Qingzhu's tongue was too agile. It was like a fish swimming in water.
All of Liang Shi's rationality crumbled in an instant, and he only wanted to be absurd with her.
But they only went as far as kissing.
However, Xu Qingzhu's sweater hem was pushed up a bit, revealing her pretty belly.
Xu Qingzhu is thin, but she doesn't like to work out, so she doesn't have any belly fat, but she also doesn't have abs.
A few days ago, the two of them discussed this issue in bed. At that time, Xu Qingzhu said confidently, "Some people say that as long as you are thin enough, you will have abs, so I will have them when I lose more weight."
Liang Shi replied, "Whether you have abs or not depends on your body fat percentage, so you need to exercise."
Xu Qingzhu covered her ears. "I'm not listening."
I was very naive back then.
The bra hooks can be easily unhooked by simply pressing them back.
Liang Shi wasn't too dull; he would even flirt a little during kisses.
But those teasing moments seemed rather immature in the face of Xu Qingzhu's burning, almost melting kiss.
Xu Qingzhu ended the kiss when she was almost suffocating, and her tears fell onto Liang Shi's cheeks.
fever.
Xu Qingzhu gasped for breath, trying to catch her breath.
After she calmed down, she said in a hoarse voice, "My heat is over."
Liang Shi unconsciously squeezed her hand, which made Xu Qingzhu cry out in pain. Then he lightly patted her shoulder.
Liang Shi then pulled his hand away and took the opportunity to pull off her sweater.
“Hmm,” Liang Shi said.
Xu Qingzhu's eyes were red at the corners, but her gaze was clear. "Omegas don't only get close to people during their heat."
Liang Shi looked at her eye level, their eyes meeting.
Xu Qingzhu grabbed her collar and kissed her on the corner of her mouth.
"I'm close to you because I like you," Xu Qingzhu said, "not because you're my wife."
"I'm actually in a lot of pain," Xu Qingzhu said, her voice slightly choked. "It hurts up there, and it hurts down there too, but I want to do it with you... because it's with you, not because I like doing it."
She raised her hand and wiped away the lipstick that had smudged from Liang Shi's lips.
After she finished speaking, seeing Liang Shi's slightly dazed eyes, she felt as if a huge stone was lodged in her heart.
I can't say anything more.
"Never mind." Xu Qingzhu got off her, picked up her coat from the side, and got out of the car.
But just as she was about to leave, Liang Shi grabbed her arm and pulled her back, and the car door slammed shut again.
This time, she was pulled back directly into Liang Shi's arms.
Xu Qingzhu even lost her balance and fell directly onto Liang Shi, hitting him hard.
Liang Shi grunted, but still looked down at Xu Qingzhu.
Those light brown pupils were like glass marbles, unbelievably beautiful.
Xu Qingzhu's eyes were misty with tears.
"What?" Xu Qingzhu said, "I'm going to work."
"Wait a minute." Liang Shi held her wrist tightly. "Let me think about it."
"Then think about it first." Xu Qingzhu tried to break free from her wrist. "Let's talk about it tonight."
“No, it has to be now.” Liang Shi stared at her, his fingertips tracing her lower eyelids. “If I don’t explain it to you clearly, you’ll cry again.”
Xu Qingzhu was taken aback by his words, then stubbornly turned her face away, "No way."
"You're such a delicate little thing." Liang Shi smiled helplessly. "I know you're like that."
“Don’t think you understand me.” Xu Qingzhu said, “You can’t even be a proper observer, how could you possibly understand what I’m saying in a short time?”
Liang Shi pursed his lips: "What do you mean?"
"Did you realize that Liang Wanwan likes Chen Mian?" Xu Qingzhu said.
Liang Shi: "..."
“No.” Liang Shi paused after speaking, “Chen Mian is Wanwan’s idol. Isn’t it normal for her to like Chen Mian?”
“It’s not that kind of liking,” Xu Qingzhu said. “It’s a different kind.”
Liang Shi: "..."
"Isn't there only one kind of liking?" Liang Shi countered.
Xu Qingzhu: "..."
"That's why I said I couldn't explain it to you," Xu Qingzhu said. "You don't need to understand, I'll sort it out myself."
When Xu Qingzhu said the second half of her sentence, she carried an indescribable sense of grievance, but this was already the best she could do to control her emotions.
It's ultimately somewhat difficult to control.
If love could be controlled, why would there be so many lovesick men and women in this world?
Emotions are inherently complex.
It was so complex that Xu Qingzhu spent a long time studying it, but only learned the basics.
I was also troubled for a long time, but I silently dealt with it all on my own.
Tell yourself it's okay; liking someone doesn't mean you have to make them like you back.
—Isn't liking someone about treating her well without reservation? What kind of response do you expect?
—Liang Shi is already very busy and tired, so don't bother her with these trivial matters.
