The Domineering CEO, but a Crybaby! - Chapter 41
Chapter 41: Dense and Numerous
In the early morning, the sun shone on forgetful island, making it beautiful like a crystal ball with a built-in fairytale world.
Lush greenery and birdsong filled the air. After the night, the stagnant vitality was revived. In contrast, the world inside the man-made houses was unaffected.
Heavy curtains blocked out all the morning light, and multiple layers of glass prevented complex noises from entering.
The room was very quiet. In the darkness, only a floor lamp that had been on all night was still working.
It stood silently in the corner, like a voyeur, watching the two figures on the sofa huddled together in the warm orange light.
Their shadows overlapped, ambiguous and hazy.
In the air, their breathing seemed different from usual, one rapid and one stagnant.
Cen Qianyi looked at the pair of dark, bright eyes, holding her breath in surprise.
The warmth on her chest was still there. Just now, the feeling of being sucked, the tingling of the tip of the tongue on her skin, all the sensations gathered in her mind, a little complicated and a little messy.
Her already stiff muscles tensed even more. Looking at the trembling eyes that were completely filled with only herself, Cen Qianyi’s hands, which were held above her head, slowly curled into fists.
“What… are you doing…”
To He Shu’s great anticipation, Cen Qianyi finally spoke.
But as soon as she spoke, she gave her a critical hit!
It hit her so hard that her vision went black!
No, she wanted her to say something, but that was to change the plot. She didn’t tell her to follow the lines!
What was this woman doing? Was she doing it on purpose?
And what was with her tone? In the original novel, her words were described as “reproachful and ashamed.” Now, her tone was one of “feigning ignorance.”
Couldn’t she see what she was doing?!
And she had to ask!
He Shu really wanted to hit her with a stick and knock her out!
Cen Qianyi blinked, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes as she looked at the woman’s chest, which was heaving more violently than before. Why was she suddenly so agitated…
Because of her actions just now? Cen Qianyi looked down at her chest. A hint of red was very conspicuous on her fair skin. She blinked, and that strange feeling from just now surfaced in her mind again.
This feeling was really a little special.
She really wanted to cuss her out. He Shu looked at Cen Qianyi’s chest again. She didn’t know why the person was wearing this nightgown today. The neckline was so low, and so much skin was exposed.
Thinking about the script’s requirements, she felt a little hopeless.
She reached out and pulled at the thin strap of Cen Qianyi’s nightgown on one side, pulling it down a little. She then ran her index finger along the strap and landed on the rising and falling edge of the nightgown.
“What am I doing… Of course, I’m eating you.”
He Shu endured the discomfort of her accelerated heartbeat and recited the line that made her feel incredibly ashamed.
Not only that, but she also lost her dignity as a human being. Like a wild beast consumed by desire, she changed positions and licked and sucked, turning the fair skin into a strawberry color.
“Baby, you taste so good.”
The corners of Cen Qianyi’s eyes suddenly went up. These words… She opened her eyes, which she didn’t know why she had suddenly closed. She looked at the person who had already lifted her head from her body. This woman… didn’t she say she didn’t taste good…
He Shu’s face was bitter. She looked at the second ‘strawberry’ she had planted. She really hadn’t expected that she, who had zero experience, would have such a talent for this… She had been worried that if she didn’t suck hard enough, the ‘strawberry’ wouldn’t form.
She reached out and touched her lips. She might also be the first person to ‘plant strawberries’ with an injured mouth. She didn’t know how the wound on her mouth got there, but it just had to be injured at this time.
Cen Qianyi looked at He Shu’s actions, at the wound her finger was touching. Thinking about how it got there, her heart, which had been beating erratically since just now, slammed against her chest.
“Let go of me…”
A voice that was much hoarser than usual shocked both of them.
A hint of embarrassment quickly flashed in Cen Qianyi’s eyes. She averted her gaze a little, not meeting the other person’s surprised eyes.
He Shu was truly shocked by Cen Qianyi’s ‘cooperation’! She even suspected that she had read the original lines and was deliberately trying to trick her!
If she wanted to get up, she should get up herself. Why was she saying this line? Did she think she didn’t know her strength? She needed someone to let her go? The original her was a pitiful little girl who was seriously acting. She couldn’t resist and could only cry out in shame with red eyes for the other person to let her go.
How many times had she stopped acting with her? What was she acting for now?!
Hurry up and get up! Subdue her! If that’s not possible, hypnotize her!
There was no way she was paralyzed and couldn’t move again, like when they first met.
Speaking of which, what exactly happened last night? Why was Cen Qianyi so strange today? And why was she covered in injuries?
He Shu, who was propped up on Cen Qianyi, could feel a faint pain in her shoulder.
Her brain also seemed to be deliberately going against her. It was very difficult to use. It hurt every time she tried to think!
The system made things even worse. The plot action countdown started again, not giving her any time to calm down and recall what happened last night.
She propped up half of her body, knelt on Cen Qianyi’s legs, and slapped her face. Of course, it was a fake slap. She hit her own hand again and then made the person turn her head away.
Looking at her red hand, He Shu’s eyes also turned a little red. Her life was so bitter! So bitter!
After hitting her, she leaned down and bit Cen Qianyi’s neck. Because her head was forced to turn, her slender neck was stretched, and a smooth tendon appeared. He Shu bit right on it.
Cen Qianyi felt the teeth on her neck. Her tied hands unconsciously clasped together. What was she going to do…
In nature, if an animal was bitten on the neck like this by another animal, it usually meant that it was in a bad situation.
Cen Qianyi had never been in this situation before. Her animal instincts made her feel a sense of danger, but this ‘danger’ strangely made her a little… excited.
All ten of her toes curled up and grabbed onto the sofa’s surface. Cen Qianyi could only see the woman’s dark hair. Not being able to see was a very bad feeling…
But this ‘bad feeling’ also seemed to be ‘a little good’…
The expected pain didn’t come, just as she had expected. The smooth teeth only lingered on her neck for a moment, as if grinding, and then left.
But the feeling they left behind was like a colony of small ants continuing to chew, a tingling, uncomfortable sensation.
After perfunctorily biting Cen Qianyi’s neck, He Shu continued with her death-seeking line.
“Baby, you forgot again. With me, the only thing you can beg me for is for me to play with you.”
She didn’t know how many times she had repeated this line. Thinking about this, He Shu suddenly thought to herself, she always felt that this line was death-seeking and that she was a goner, but she was still alive and well to this day…
Thinking about this, she looked at Cen Qianyi, whose head she had turned away. She just let herself be ‘manhandled’ by her and was very ‘cooperative.’
What did she mean? Was she planning to act like a pitiful little girl again?
He Shu was a little angry. She felt that this person was always like this, as if she was playing with her.
She lowered her head in anger and bit her collarbone.
Feeling the body underneath her tremble, she quickly let go, not daring to actually bite her hard.
She didn’t even look at Cen Qianyi’s reaction. Since this person didn’t say anything or stop her, she couldn’t be blamed. Even if she brought it up again in the future, she would be righteous. This person was the one who started acting first.
She lowered her head, and on the spot where she had just bitten, she sucked hard, creating another strawberry.
He Shu acted as if she were a hardworking farmer, a heartless strawberry-planting machine. She buried her head in this ‘white land,’ working diligently to quickly meet the standard.
The script said: [Dense and numerous love bites on the exposed fair skin.]
This person was really something. She was wearing this today. If she had been wearing a high-collared shirt, she would have been able to finish faster.
And what was with this horrible adjective!
‘Dense and numerous’!
Even though it was inappropriate, He Shu couldn’t help but think of a line from a song that was very fitting for the current situation.
“Dense and numerous, is my self-esteem.”
It was too fitting. It was indeed her self-esteem. With a ‘pop,’ another strawberry appeared on Cen Qianyi’s body, and her self-esteem dropped a little more.
It dropped so much that her head hurt. She didn’t dare to look up at Cen Qianyi at all. She didn’t know why this person still wasn’t moving.
Could she be thinking about how to kill her…
If He Shu were to look up at this moment, she would see an unusually beautiful face. The pale purple eyes were filled with ripples. Her neck, which she had bitten, and her entire face were all flushed with an extremely captivating pink.
Cen Qianyi lay on her back, her hands clasped together and her feet together. The dim yellow light from the lamp in the corner fell into her eyes, melting the usual coldness of the pale purple color, like a gem falling into the mortal world, filled with lust.
She panted slightly, feeling a little confused. The special physical sensations were new, but they were controllable… What was strange was her heart.
It was beating too fast.
It was as if she had been drugged, but the strange thing was that it didn’t feel bad or hurt.
On the contrary, it gave her a sense of being alive.
Cen Qianyi closed her eyes, feeling where her heart was, feeling the hot lips hovering nearby.
Just a little more, and they would reach it.
But just then, a ringing sound came. The lips that were supposed to touch her heart suddenly left her warm skin.
Cen Qianyi opened her eyes, and a look of anger appeared in her eyes.
He Shu’s eyes, however, seemed to be suddenly filled with morning light, bright and sparkling.
She turned her head to look in the direction of the sound. The doorbell. It was the doorbell!
She was saved!
He Shu jumped off the sofa without a second thought, almost running to open the door in her underwear. Thankfully, she realized this before she got to the door.
She quickly grabbed a bathrobe from the closet and wrapped it around herself. She couldn’t even wait to tie the belt before she opened the door.
It was as if she was afraid that this savior would leave if no one opened the door.
Ye Qi was surprised that the door opened so quickly this time. When she saw that it was He Shu who opened the door, she let out a sigh of relief.
When she was on her way to the shooting range, she remembered that she didn’t have He Shu’s contact information. She had forgotten to ask for it yesterday. The shooting range she was going to today was quite big, and she was worried that the person wouldn’t be able to find her, so she wanted to come back and ask Cen Qianyi for He Shu’s contact information.
But He Shu was awake, which was even better. She could just ask her directly.
Just as she was about to speak, the person inside the door rushed out and hugged her.
He Shu was so excited that she wanted to cry. A savior! It was Ye Qi! As expected of a good child with faith and love, she was reliable in a critical moment!
“Good morning, my friend!”
She squeezed the person’s shoulders, let her go, and the excitement in her eyes made Ye Qi lean her neck back a little.
“G-good morning.” Ye Qi looked at the person who was clearly very excited so early in the morning and asked in confusion, “Sister Shu, what’s wrong? What are you so happy about?”
He Shu smiled: “I’m happy to see you.”
Ye Qi raised an eyebrow. Just as she was about to ask what was so happy about seeing her, she saw the person in the room behind He Shu.
Just one look, and she was stunned!
The person in the room had her hands tied and clasped in front of her. Her bathrobe had slipped down and was hanging on her arms. On her chest, which the spaghetti-strap nightgown didn’t cover, there was a dense and numerous red patch.
At this moment, she really regretted her good eyesight. The curtains in the room were not open, so it was a little dim, but she could see it clearly with just one glance.
For a sniper, this was an advantage. For the current situation, it was a little awkward.
It seemed that she knew why He Shu was happy…
She quickly pushed away He Shu’s hand, which was squeezing her arm, turned around, and ran.
“S-sorry for disturbing you.”
Cen Qianyi looked at the person who was running away. Thinking about what He Shu had just said, ‘I’m happy to see you’… She was happy to see that person?
Why was she happy?
They had just met yesterday.
He Shu was very surprised to see Ye Qi running away. She ran down the stairs and took two more steps out, yelling at the person’s back: “Hey, why are you running? What do you need me for?”
The running figure slowed down a little, turned around to look at He Shu: “Nothing. You do your thing. I’ll wait for you at the shooting range. Don’t rush. You, you take your time!”
After saying that, Ye Qi turned around and continued to run, as if as long as she ran fast enough, the awkwardness wouldn’t catch up to her.
He Shu looked at the person who had disappeared in a flash, her eyes filled with confusion. What was wrong with her… She couldn’t see her anymore. He Shu walked back. No matter what, she was still grateful for her sudden arrival that had interrupted the plot.
She was alive again!
The corners of her lips had just started to curve up. She walked up the stairs, and when she saw the person in the room, she stumbled. He Shu almost knelt on the stairs.
Cen Qianyi had gotten up from the sofa at some point, but the belt on her hands was not untied. The bathrobe on her body was not pulled up either. Even the nightgown strap that she had pulled off was still hanging on her shoulder. The large area of exposed skin, when looked at… was indeed, dense and numerous…
He Shu’s heart suddenly jumped into her throat. She dashed back into the room and quickly closed the door, blocking out the light from outside.
The room became dim again. Thankfully, the floor lamp in the corner was still working diligently, tirelessly watching.
In the dim yellow light, it saw the two figures, who had been separated, come into contact again, but this time, there was a clear distance between them.
He Shu didn’t dare to get too close. She extended her hand, pulled the strap back onto her shoulder, pulled the bathrobe together, quickly untied the belt, and put it back on her waist. She also tied it tightly, making sure that no skin was exposed.
Cen Qianyi didn’t stop her. When the person backed away after doing all that, she glanced at the belt that had been tied into a tight knot and let out a soft snort.
This sound scared He Shu into taking another step back.
Cen Qianyi looked up at the person who looked panicked, slowly turned her wrists, and then spoke in a faint voice.
“What, you’re not going to eat anymore?”
He Shu was embarrassed. She knew the meaning of her words but didn’t know what she meant by saying them. The tone was so faint that she couldn’t hear any emotion. Looking at her turning her wrists, she was a little scared. Was she about to make a move?
“N-n-no, I’m not.”
He Shu was so nervous that she stuttered a little. She didn’t actually want to ‘eat’ her. She was forced to. Cen Qianyi was also responsible! She could have stopped her!
Because she knew that she had the ability to stop her, she wasn’t worried about these plots at all. If she had known that this person could be so unexpected, she would have changed all her nightgowns first!
Cen Qianyi was not surprised by He Shu’s answer. She had expected her not to continue after she got up.
She looked at the person and let out a laugh, but the laughter didn’t reach her eyes.
“What, are you going out?”
“Huh?” He Shu was confused.
Cen Qianyi continued: “To learn to shoot?”
“Huh?” He Shu was even more confused.
What was shooting? This word sounded a little familiar. Ye Qi seemed to have said something about shooting just now.
As she was thinking, she saw the person in front of her stop turning her wrists, and then her whole body moved.
Cen Qianyi turned around and went to where the luggage was placed. She took out a rifle that was a little more than an arm’s length from He Shu’s suitcase.
She cleanly and efficiently loaded the magazine and then calmly and skillfully installed a suppressor.
Finally, she aimed it at He Shu.
Before He Shu could react, with a ‘bang,’ a loud ‘clatter’ came from behind her.
He Shu was a beat late in covering her head and ears. Her widened pupils were full of horror. She had just thought that Cen Qianyi was going to kill her!
She hesitated and turned to look. Not far behind her, the crystal ornament that was originally on the desk to hold down the papers was shattered completely.
Was she aiming at the ornament, or was she trying to shoot her and just missed?
He Shu anxiously turned her head. Cen Qianyi had already put down the gun. Her pale purple eyes were sharp and contemptuous.
“Shooting?”
She heard Cen Qianyi let out a scoff.
“It’s just firing a gun.”
This was the first time He Shu had seen such a look of disdain on Cen Qianyi’s face, and also the first time she had heard her speak in such a sarcastic tone.
The villainous aura that was only heavily depicted in the book was now completely exposed.
It was the kind of powerful, arrogant, and condescending supervillain.
He Shu’s heart was beating wildly. What was she going to do… Was she not going to pretend anymore?
Looking at the person walking toward her, He Shu hesitated about whether to run or not. Looking at the gun in her hand, it seemed that running or not didn’t make a difference…
In the end, He Shu stood there like a statue, watching the person walk over with an air of a king.
That condescending voice rang in her ear again.
“Want to learn?”
He Shu’s heart was pulled to her throat by the cold voice that felt like it had a physical form.
What did this person want to do?
She nervously swallowed a mouthful of air and heard the person speak again.
The voice was closer, almost right next to her ear.
“I’ll teach you.”
The warmth of her breath went straight into her ear.
He Shu suddenly looked up at the person who was so close, her head full of question marks.
“Huh?”
