Chapter 370: The Desire for Survival
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
To the heart’s content.
Besides this idiom, Xiang Wan couldn’t find another way to describe this.
This time, there was no interruption. Bai Muchuan completely released the beast inside him and did a cla.s.sic problem of “one plus one equals two”. Even though Xiang Wan wanted to stop, he refused to let her go. They tried various kinds of positions, ‘torturing’ her to death and back again.
She was exhausted!
However, he was continuing the act!
Xiang Wan wished she could faint.
When he finally carried her to the bathroom for a bath, she felt as if she had been ripped apart.
“Bai Muchuan, what did you eat to become like this?”
Under the soothing water sounds, Xiang Wan asked that weakly and coolly.
It was not that she wanted an answer but just wanted to express her indignance.
Bai Muchuan looked at her as if it was nothing.
“I’ve never eaten this before all my life, so I’m hooked to it!”
Xiang Wan wanted to lash out at him but felt too weak to do so.
She was too tired! She was so exhausted that she didn’t even want to move a finger.
Since she did not have the energy to get into an argument, she left it to Bai Muchuan to deal with the aftermath.
When he carried her to the bathroom, she saw the crumpled quilt, pillows, and the messily strewn clothes all over the floor. That sent a chill up her spine, and she felt like she had come back to life.
What a dream!
She couldn’t believe it if not for the aching feeling around her body…
That it was already dark outside.
Just how long had they been at it!?
Xiang Wan covered her face and propped down on the bed. “Bai Muchuan, don’t you have things to do?”
Bai Muchuan drew closer to her. “Why? You still want another round?”
Xiang Wan said slowly, “Get out!”
“Get down?” Bai Muchuan teased, “You want me to get down to ‘business’, right?”
“Ahh… You’re so annoying!”
Xiang Wan rolled over and buried her head into the pillow.
“I’m asking you if you’re still going out to work!”
Bai Muchuan didn’t speak. “…”
The corners of his mouth lifted upwards slowly. He squatted down and took a nightgown from her suitcase. He wanted to turn Xiang Wan over… but as soon as his fingers made contact with her skin, it immediately startled her.
She opened her eyes; her body shrunk backward and was gazing at him pitifully like a little puppy.
“No, I don’t…”
Looks like she’s really scared of him.
Bai Muchuan lifted her up in a half embrace.
“Put on the nightgown properly.”
Xiang Wan narrowed her eyes to a squint as she observed him.
When she was sure that he really did not have any other thoughts, she felt relieved.
“Okay, I’ll wear it myself. If you’ve something on, you can go now!”
“…”
Bai Muchuan glanced at her. “Are you driving me away? We are considered husband and wife. Teacher Xiang, you’re being very unfair to me!”
“Hehehe!” Xiang Wan plastered a smile on her face.
“Your Excellency,” she said lazily, “work is important!”
Hur! Bai Muchuan ‘scooped’ her up.
Without saying anything, he helped her wear the night gown personally.
Xiang Wan let out a scream as she was surprised. After he dressed her up disorderly, he tucked her back into bed. Only then did she feel relieved. “I’m not lying,” she pouted. “My legs are weak, and I feel like trembling when I see you!”
Did he become an eyesore?
Bai Muchuan frowned disapprovingly.
The next second, he realized something.
No, she was actually complimenting him!
Didn’t this also mean that he’s pretty good at it?
Bai Muchuan chuckled and said, “Okay, I’m off then. Rest a bit more if you want and call me if there’s anything!”
Hur, hur, hur, that’s great!
Xiang Wan seemed like she had been waiting for this moment. She lifted a hand from the quilt and waved at him weakly.
“Bye…”
Bai Muchuan seemed reluctant.
He lowered his head and kissed her lightly.
Her man’s warm breathing, made her heart felt clasped once again.
Geez! Could it be that the beast in him awakened again?
“Xiang Wan,” Bai Muchuan’s kiss stopped at her neck, the temperature of his breath felt like it was ironing her skin slowly, making her feel hot and her mouth dry. The sensation from her skin made its way to her heart which it evolved into a fire, making her melt…
“What do you want to say?” She asked softly, taking short breaths.
“I wanted to sleep on the same bed as you legally!”
He rested his head on her shoulder, not moving at all.
“…” Xiang Wan’s heart skipped a beat.
“What did you say? Say it one more time?”
“I said, I wanted to sleep on the same bed with you legally!”
“… Make it clearer, I don’t understand.”
“I mean, Xiang Wan, let’s get married?”
Is this a proposal? she thought.
Oh no, this is too sudden.
No, she couldn’t be agreeing to it just like that!
“Hey, are you not going according to the script?”
Xiang Wan stroked his arm, smiling in a way that suggested that she did not really believe him. “You got affected as well?”
After knowing that Fang Yuanyuan and Huang He wanted to get married, he also had this thought.
“Tch!” Bai Muchuan was laughing, but he did not lift his head. Instead, he snuggled a little at her neck.
“Didn’t you say that I’m as old as a piece of cured meat? This cured meat managed to find a girl who’s willing to be with me. How can I not get married quickly?”
What!?
Xiang Wan did not like this reasoning.
“Do you know how to talk?”
“Mm…?” Bai Muchuan was extremely puzzled.
“Shouldn’t you praise me up to the skies? You should compliment my peerless beauty and that you’ve been to h.e.l.l and heaven, but I’m the only one for you. After that, shouldn’t you show your sincerity by kneeling down before me while holding a bouquet of red roses?”
“I’m an honest man!” Bai Muchuan puffed a sigh. “Forget it, it’s just a sentence, just hearing it will do!”
Honest my foot! She dissed inside her head.
He’s like an idiot!
Xiang Wan rolled her eyes and heaved a sigh.
“Let’s leave it at that. Your desire to survive is not strong! We’ll talk when you come back.”
“Alright!” Bai Muchuan chuckled and got up, patting her head. “I won’t force you in this matter. However, there’s something I need to push!”
“What is it?” Xiang Wan was surprised since his expression seemed serious.
Bai Muchuan ruffled her head and touched her collarbone.
“You’re too skinny! You need to take better care of yourself…”
“Where am I skinny?” Xiang Wan’s eyes were big and wide-opened, she almost laughed due to anger.
Heavens! She was even thinking of losing some weight!
“It made me uncomfortable!” Bai Muchuan said as a matter-of-factly, “Earlier on, I’m really worried I might break your waist…”
Xiang Wan’s jaws dropped. “…”
Bai Muchuan pointed to the door with a faint smile. “I’m off now!”
…
Although he had left, Xiang Wan couldn’t sleep.
The mind of a woman in love was complex.
The word “uncomfortable” triggered a lot of thoughts in Xiang Wan.
Bai Muchuan disliked the fact that she was slender?
Was that an indication that he actually preferred voluptuous women?
Xie Wanwan… well, she was also slender!
Lima… Gosh, this woman was sure curvaceous.
Waist, tummy, legs and those eyes…
Even Xiang Wan’s heart would be fluttering when she thought of her.
Lima might not be the most beautiful woman around, but she should be the most frivolous and flirtatious woman she knew. Her every gaze and her mannerisms, especially the way she threw seductive winks, were totally a killer. Was this type of women more attractive to men than beautiful women?
Well, even if a man might not like her, he would definitely like her body.
She was with Meng Chi earlier.
Did she have a relationship with Meng Chi?
However, if they have, Meng Chi did not seem to show any special treatment toward her.
Not to mention, was this Meng Chi the same “Meng Chi” she met at Wen Xin Nunnery?
As Xiang Wan recalled about what she had gone through, she had to admit that…
Meng Chi’s eyes and that person’s eyes were very similar, their voice was also similar. However, the glint in their eyes felt somewhat different…
Therefore, with regards to Meng Chi, she was not so sure anymore.
The moment Xiang Wan thought about the case, all of her fatigue disappeared completely.
After tossing and turning in bed for a while, she still couldn’t sleep. She got up and turned on her laptop…
Previously, she told Bai Muchuan that she would write her thoughts about the 121 case into her chapter.
Hmm, I’ll write , she thought.
