Abducted by the White Moonlight of a "Tormented Protagonist" Novel - Chapter 42
Chapter 42
Her words were naturally heard by Zhou Sui and the others next to her, and they all fell silent.
However, Song Zhiqi pouted when she heard her words and reached out to pull Shen Shiyi’s clothes, as if she really thought she wouldn’t dare.
In the face of her direct actions, Shen Shiyi was always very cooperative, and there was even a soft and doting smile on her face.
She had originally wanted to take off her coat, but she was too lazy to get up after she sat down, which led to the situation where she was still wearing the similar coat when they were teasing her.
Wherever Shen Shiyi and Gu Tingsheng were, they were naturally the focal point of the crowd’s attention. Song Zhiqi’s actions were also seen by many people. Combined with Shen Shiyi’s attitude toward her, everyone present was smart and would notice that something was off.
Was that Song Zhiqi really cold? Why did it feel like she was jealous?
After realizing that something was off, no one dared to make jokes about Shen Shiyi and Gu Tingsheng again.
After Song Zhiqi got Shen Shiyi’s coat, she only wore it for a few minutes. Then, she looked at the people dancing in the middle of the room and felt a little eager to join them.
“If you want to go, then go.” Shen Shiyi was helpless. Looking at her eyes, if she didn’t let her go in and jump around for a bit, she would stare at her longingly for the whole night.
“You’re so nice!” Song Zhiqi immediately gave her a compliment. She returned the coat that she had just taken off from her a few minutes ago and then went into the dance floor with the person she was getting along with.
Song Zhiqi didn’t have much of a dancing foundation. After she went in, she just jumped around aimlessly, purely to vent the frustration she had been feeling during this time.
After all, she hadn’t had many good things happen to her since she came to this world.
Shen Shiyi looked at Song Zhiqi, who was jumping around in the dance floor. Her eyes were slightly dim, hiding a secret that no one could understand.
When Zhou Sui saw her like this, she looked at Song Zhiqi, who was completely different from her usual self in the dance floor, and a thoughtful look appeared in her eyes.
Does she like women?
Her gaze then turned to Gu Tingsheng. He was talking to someone else at the moment, so it was obviously not a good time to ask questions.
It wasn’t until the person he was talking to got up and left that Zhou Sui sat down on one side of Gu Tingsheng with her drink and raised her glass to him.
Gu Tingsheng took a sip of his wine and smiled. “I haven’t thanked you for taking care of Shiyu yet. Shiyu can be a little difficult sometimes, so I’m grateful that you’re so tolerant of her.”
Zhou Sui pursed her lips. Thinking back to her time with Gu Shiyu, she didn’t think she was that tolerant of her. Instead, most of the time, Gu Shiyu was the one who didn’t care about her attitude and stuck to her.
“No, she… is quite good.” Zhou Sui hesitated for a moment before asking, “What has she been doing these past few days?”
She was so quiet, which was unlike Gu Shiyu. She originally thought that Gu Shiyu was the type of person who would flip everything over when she was angry. She never expected her to be so quiet, as if she was going to cut ties with her from now on.
When he heard her ask about Gu Shiyu, Gu Tingsheng’s face showed a hint of helplessness. “I don’t know what happened to her two days ago. After she came back, she locked herself in her room without saying a word. She hasn’t left the house these past few days. I don’t know what she’s doing in her room.”
Most importantly, she didn’t even go after Fu Wen anymore!
For a moment, he felt both happy and worried. It was a good thing that she wasn’t chasing Fu Wen, but it was not a good thing for her to lock herself in her room all day!
Zhou Sui’s eyebrows slightly furrowed when she heard him say that. She didn’t know what to do.
“I remember you two had a good relationship, don’t you? Do you know what happened?” Gu Tingsheng also couldn’t help but ask. After all, Shiyu was still excitedly talking about going to bring warmth to Zhou Sui before. The next day, she came back like that.
Did something happen between the two of them?
Zhou Sui lowered her eyes. “Mm, I do.”
But the things she said were so hurtful in Gu Shiyu’s eyes. Even if she wanted to mend things, would Gu Shiyu accept it?
Zhou Sui didn’t know what she was thinking. She used to find Gu Shiyu annoying and noisy when she was clinging to her, but now that she suddenly disappeared from her life, she felt a little uneasy and found her life to be much colder.
Gu Tingsheng looked at her expression and then at her specifically asking him about Shiyu. He understood that something must have happened between them, but he didn’t ask further since she clearly didn’t want to talk about it.
As long as nothing big happened, it was better for him not to get too involved in things between girls.
…
Song Zhiqi was tired from jumping around. She was slightly sweating. She took a step and was about to walk back to the booth, but she was stopped by a man who thought he was handsome. He said he wanted to buy her a drink.
Song Zhiqi lazily looked up. After jumping around, she just wanted to get a good night’s sleep. So, she felt a natural sense of annoyance toward the man in front of her. However, before she could even open her mouth, an arm was placed on her shoulder. At the same time, the familiar faint fragrance reached her nose.
“I’m sorry, but she doesn’t drink with strangers.” Shen Shiyi wrapped her arm around Song Zhiqi and looked at the man coldly.
The man’s heart skipped a beat when his eyes met hers. He had a hunch that this woman in front of him was not to be messed with, so he laughed it off and left.
Seeing that it was Shen Shiyi, Song Zhiqi relaxed her body and leaned into her arms. She mumbled that she wanted to go home and sleep.
Shen Shiyi wrapped her arms around her waist and held her steady. She looked at her eyes, which were blurry with sleepiness, and found it a little funny. She coaxed softly, “You can sleep later. I’ll take you out first.”
Song Zhiqi didn’t listen. She buried her face in her arms and yawned softly.
Shen Shiyi didn’t delay. She carried her back to the booth, asked Zhou Sui to hand her the coat on the seat to put on Song Zhiqi, said goodbye to the others, and left.
When they got out of the bar, the night breeze blew, and Song Zhiqi shivered. She was a little more awake.
“Get in the car first.” Song Zhiqi was sweating earlier. Even though she had a coat on, Shen Shiyi was still worried that she would catch a cold.
“Okay.” Song Zhiqi was very obedient now. After getting into the car and putting on her seatbelt, she turned her head and said to Shen Shiyi, “You didn’t really have any fun today.”
Although she was jumping around in the dance floor earlier, her attention would occasionally turn to Shen Shiyi. She saw that most of the time, she was drinking alone. Even though Zhou Sui was sitting next to her, they didn’t talk much.
“I did.” Shen Shiyi replied.
Song Zhiqi pouted. She didn’t dwell on it anymore and closed her eyes to rest.
Later, Song Zhiqi really fell asleep. She didn’t wake up until they reached the parking lot at home. Shen Shiyi carefully woke her up, carried her upstairs, and went inside. Seeing that she didn’t drink much but looked like she was drunk, she asked, “Can you still shower by yourself?”
“Mmm!” Song Zhiqi opened her eyes, then yawned. “I guess so.”
Seeing her like this, Shen Shiyi was not at ease with her showering alone. She was worried that she would fall, so she just carried her into the bathroom with her to wash up.
When she was taking off her clothes, Song Zhiqi became a lot more awake. She held her hand and glared at her. “What are you doing?”
She was already like this, was Shen Shiyi still so perverted?
Seeing her expression, Shen Shiyi clearly knew that she had misunderstood. However, she didn’t explain much. She just said, “What’s wrong? It’s not like we haven’t showered together before.”
These words immediately made Song Zhiqi remember their first meeting. That night, the two of them were in the bathroom, soaking in a bathtub. She even kissed… She looked at Shen Shiyi’s chest.
She even kneaded it back then. It felt great!
Her ears belatedly turned hot. She pretended to be calm and said, “So what! Who said that just because we’ve showered together before, we can do it again?”
“I did.” Shen Shiyi didn’t waste any more words. She directly took off her clothes, and then took off her own clothes as well. She turned on the shower, letting the warm water pour down on them.
Song Zhiqi, who was suddenly drenched, became even more sober. She stared at Shen Shiyi with a gloomy gaze, trying to use this method to make her feel guilty.
Unfortunately, Shen Shiyi didn’t feel guilty about this at all. After a simple rinse, she brought Song Zhiqi into the bathtub. “Soak for a bit. It’ll be more comfortable.”
Song Zhiqi: “…”
“You are not allowed to touch me.” Song Zhiqi mumbled as a reminder.
“How am I supposed to wash you without touching you?” Shen Shiyi smiled. She squeezed two pumps of shower gel into her palm, rubbed it to create a lather, and raised an eyebrow at her.
Song Zhiqi quickly backed away. However, the bathtub was only so big. Where could she run to? She was quickly pulled back by Shen Shiyi. Her arms and legs were wrapped around her to hold her in place.
As that pair of hands rubbed shower gel on her body, Song Zhiqi said with tears in her eyes, “I haven’t even removed my makeup yet!”
Who washes up first without removing their makeup?!
After Song Zhiqi shouted that out, Shen Shiyi finally realized what she had forgotten. She looked at her wet face with a hint of guilt. She quickly got up, took some makeup remover and other things, and carefully removed her makeup. At the same time, she was apologizing and saying, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I was too careless.”
Song Zhiqi’s face was sullen. She let her remove her makeup. Listening to her soft voice that kept apologizing, she couldn’t help but feel a little soft-hearted.
Oh, this woman was so annoying!
…
After Shen Shiyi helped her remove her makeup, she looked at her sleepy eyes. Her eyebrows slightly drooped, and she said with a hint of grievance, “I saw it all tonight. A lot of people were hitting on you.”
It had to be said that Song Zhiqi was very eye-catching today. She was both innocent and hot. When she smiled, she was bright and pure. When she was jumping around in the dance floor, many people would naturally come up to her and try to talk to her. At that time, Shen Shiyi was sitting in the booth and saw everything clearly.
Song Zhiqi’s sleepy mind was stunned for a moment. She quickly explained, “I didn’t talk to them!”
She went to release stress, not to hook up with people. She naturally didn’t have a good face for the men who came to hit on her.
Shen Shiyi let out a soft “hmph.” She, of course, knew that Song Zhiqi didn’t talk to them. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have stayed in her seat until she saw Song Zhiqi trying to leave the dance floor and walk back.
“But what should I do if I’m still jealous?” Shen Shiyi cleaned her up, leaned on her shoulder and neck, and mumbled softly, wanting her to take responsibility and give her an explanation.
Song Zhiqi: “?”
Her sleepiness and confusion coexisted. She didn’t talk to those people. What did her jealousy have to do with her in this situation?
She yawned. “Why don’t you be jealous tomorrow? We can talk about this tomorrow.”
She was really too sleepy to think straight.
The system was calm.
Do you guys even hear how ambiguous your words are?
Shen Shiyi wanted to laugh when she heard her words, but she didn’t bother her anymore. After she also finished washing up, she dried them both and dried their hair. After all this, she was tired, too. She was too lazy to put on pajamas for her and just held her and lay in bed. She pulled the blanket over them and that was it.
She had no dreams and slept until dawn. Song Zhiqi had a very comfortable sleep. She didn’t know if that way of relaxing was really useful. She even felt that her body was much lighter, and her attitude toward the future had become much more positive.
“Mmm—”
She stretched comfortably, and her hand touched the soft body next to her.
Song Zhiqi’s body stiffened. She tentatively touched it. The skin was smooth.
She was suddenly shocked and became completely awake. She turned her head and saw Shen Shiyi looking at her with sleepy eyes, seeming to be confused as to why she was disturbing her sleep.
Song Zhiqi: “…”
She quietly felt her body. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, she was a little relieved. It seemed that Shen Shiyi wasn’t so crazy as to do anything while she was sleeping.
“Why didn’t you put clothes on me?” Song Zhiqi couldn’t help but mumble. It was so weird to sleep together without clothes on!
Her toes were curled up under the blanket in shame.
Shen Shiyi also slowly woke up. She stretched lazily and said sleepily, “I was too tired after cleaning up last night, so I didn’t want to wear anything.”
Song Zhiqi: “…”
Song Zhiqi buried her head in the blanket. She didn’t want to face her for now.
Looking at her ostrich-like behavior, Shen Shiyi couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s not like we haven’t done this before. Why are you so shy?”
Saying that, she moved closer and hugged her from behind. The feeling of their skin touching made her let out a soft sigh. She said lazily, “Last night, I said I was jealous, and you said we could talk about it today. Can we talk about it now?”
When she was holding Song Zhiqi, perhaps because she felt too comfortable, she couldn’t help but rub her head against the back of her neck. Her hand, which was wrapped around her waist, also gradually moved up, wanting to grab one of the snowy mounds and play with it.
Song Zhiqi’s face turned beet red. She quickly grabbed her mischievous hand and said angrily, “Just talk properly. What are you doing with your hands?”
Not only her hands, but her legs were also tangled with Song Zhiqi’s. She buried her head in the back of her neck and mumbled, “But when I see you, I just want to be close to you.”
It was like a patient with skin hunger. She always wanted to be intimate with her.
Song Zhiqi’s ears were hot. “What you’re doing is so perverted!”
“I don’t care. I’m jealous.” Shen Shiyi left a string of tiny kisses on the back of her neck, with the clear intention of getting an explanation from Song Zhiqi early in the morning.
However, Song Zhiqi couldn’t handle her at all. Her body was trembling slightly in her arms. The shame in her heart spread. She knew that she couldn’t escape today, so she let go of the hand that was holding her. She wanted to bury her face in the pillow and said, “Stop it!”
Hearing her muffled voice, Shen Shiyi chuckled softly. She turned over and pinned Song Zhiqi down on her back. She buried her face in her chest and chuckled. “I will definitely stop it.”
However, Song Zhiqi, whose entire body was already flushed, still keenly sensed the danger. But she was completely under her control and had no strength to resist.
The final result…
All the energy she had accumulated from the comfortable night’s rest was completely drained by Shen Shiyi.
Song Zhiqi: Smiles.
She didn’t want to love anymore.
…
Fortunately, it was a Saturday, so she didn’t have to get up early for work. When Song Zhiqi woke up again, it was already two in the afternoon. She had not only missed breakfast but also slept through lunchtime.
Perhaps she was too hungry, so her stomach didn’t feel hungry at all. Instead, her entire body was lazy and she couldn’t muster up any strength, but she couldn’t fall back asleep. She turned her head and looked around the bed, but she didn’t see the culprit.
Song Zhiqi touched her waist and winced a little. This Shen Shiyi was really like she hadn’t seen a woman in 800 years. She ate once and wanted to make up for all the times she hadn’t eaten. Was that what she called “stopping it”?
The system was now completely calm in the face of this situation. When it sensed that something was wrong, it quietly added 3 pounds to Fu Wen’s weight before blocking the broadcast.
The bedroom door opened. Shen Shiyi had her long hair neatly tied up at the back of her head. She was wearing an apron that didn’t match her demeanor at all. A soft smile appeared on her face when she saw that Song Zhiqi was awake.
“You’re awake at just the right time. The food is ready. Get up and eat something.”
At this moment, she was in high spirits, a complete contrast to Song Zhiqi, who was lying on the bed like a dead dog. It was impossible to tell that she was the one who had exerted the most effort earlier.
Song Zhiqi couldn’t help but feel her teeth ache with jealousy when she saw her like this.
Why?! Why did she look completely fine?!
Seeing that she wasn’t speaking, Shen Shiyi let out a pleasant and teasing “hmph” from her nose. “Do you still want to sleep?”
“You go out first. I’ll come out myself after I wash up!” Song Zhiqi said through gritted teeth. After this girl cleaned her up, she didn’t even put clothes on her!
“Alright. I have to watch the soup anyway. Can you wash up by yourself?”
Song Zhiqi gritted her teeth. “I’m 23!”
Shen Shiyi chuckled softly and considerately closed the bedroom door for her.
After the door was closed, Song Zhiqi let out a long sigh. When she got up, she could still feel a faint weirdness in her lower body, a feeling of being overused by her.
Song Zhiqi’s face darkened a little. She suspected that Shen Shiyi was a horny dog reincarnated. How could she be so energetic?
When she was washing up, she looked at herself in the mirror. There were still some faint marks on her neck and other places left by Shen Shiyi, which looked very ambiguous. However, since she didn’t have to go out today, she didn’t want to bother to cover them up.
When she thought that she would eventually leave this world, a sense of annoyance appeared in Song Zhiqi’s heart.
After she left, it meant that she would never see that woman Shen Shiyi again.
She wondered who she would bother after she left.
Song Zhiqi lowered her head and cupped some water in her hands to splash on her face. Her entire face was wet. She didn’t know if she used too much force, but the corners of her eyes were slightly red.
After she finished washing up and went out, she happened to see Shen Shiyi wearing heat-resistant gloves and carrying a clay pot out of the kitchen.
Seeing her like this, Song Zhiqi seemed to feel a sense of reality at this moment. She was slightly stunned. “You can actually cook?”
Shen Shiyi put down the pot, took off the heat-resistant gloves, and raised an eyebrow at Song Zhiqi with a proud look. However, after her moment of pride, she explained, “When I was studying abroad, I wasn’t used to the local food, so I had no choice but to cook myself.”
When she cooked more, she naturally developed a good cooking skill.
Song Zhiqi understood when she heard her say that. She had a friend who studied abroad in her previous world. She was a complete amateur in the kitchen before she went abroad, but after she went abroad, she could even get a chef’s license.
Shen Shiyi ladled a bowl of soup for her and placed it in front of her. She glanced at the marks on her neck, and the smile in her eyes deepened.
“Try it.”
Song Zhiqi was a little speechless from her staring, but after she took a sip, her eyes lit up a little. She didn’t expect Shen Shiyi’s cooking to be so good.
“It’s delicious!”
Hearing her praise, Shen Shiyi’s eyebrows raised slightly. She also put some food in her bowl and said, “Try these, too.”
After seeing that Song Zhiqi really liked the food she cooked, Shen Shiyi couldn’t describe her feelings at the moment. She just felt very satisfied.
After they finished this late lunch, Shen Shiyi went into her study, seemingly to work on something. Song Zhiqi sat on the sofa in the living room and used her phone to text Fu Wen to maintain their relationship. After all, if she never texted him, it wouldn’t look like she liked him.
However, after Song Zhiqi sent the message, Fu Wen was like a dead person. There was no reply for a long time.
Fu Wen saw her message, but that didn’t mean he was in the mood to reply. He was in a terrible mood right now.
He had gained more than 20 pounds in a short time, which made his entire face look swollen like a steamed bun. He had the greasy look of a middle-aged man who was getting fat.
Especially yesterday, after his mother came back from a gathering, she urged him to quickly win over Shen Shiyi. She even ordered him to break up with all those messy women outside so that Shen Shiyi wouldn’t be unhappy if she found out.
Why wouldn’t Fu Wen know the benefits of winning over Shen Shiyi sooner? But now that he looked like this, what would she think of him if he appeared in front of her?
Lately, nothing had been going well for him.
…
Fu Wen didn’t reply to her message, but Gu Shiyu, who was a rare occurrence, sent her a message.
Ever since she called her a liar last time, she had never sent her a message again. She even stopped sharing her life on her social media. The entire person had calmed down.
Gu Young Lady: Do you have time? Let’s meet.
She was surprised for a moment when she saw this message. Did the sun rise from the west today? This young lady actually asked her if she had time.
She thought about it. Fu Wen’s side wasn’t making any progress anyway, so she was just free. It wouldn’t hurt to meet.
She agreed to meet at a coffee shop near her home. Song Zhiqi told Shen Shiyi before she left. Perhaps because of what happened this morning, Shen Shiyi was in a very good mood, so she didn’t interfere too much and let her leave.
When she arrived at the coffee shop, Song Zhiqi was still a little curious about the reason Gu Shiyu wanted to meet her. Did she still not get over what happened last time and wanted to come over and scold her face to face?
She had just sat down when she saw a woman who was dressed very elegantly and proudly walk in quickly. Her eyes searched the room and then landed on Song Zhiqi. She walked toward her quickly.
A hint of amazement flashed in Song Zhiqi’s eyes. This young lady was really pretty.
However, before she could come back to her senses, Gu Shiyu suddenly held her hand and asked in a very sincere tone, “Do you think Brother Fu Wen is dirty?”
“?”
“!”
