Chapter 60: Pt.2

"We were talking about Little Xu's new boyfriend."

Xu Chuanchuan: "!!!"

As soon as Xu Xiaomei finished speaking, Xu Chuanchuan immediately felt a certain someone grabbing onto her hand under the table and holding onto it tightly.

On the surface, Murong Shi still appeared very calm. She rested her cheek on one hand and tilted her head to look at Xu Chuanchuan. Then, she slowly asked, "You even have a boyfriend?"

As soon as Murong Shi finished speaking, Xu Chuanchuan felt her hand being squeezed even tighter. Then, sensing the danger, Xu Chuanchuan hurriedly denied, "I don't have a boyfriend!"

Unfortunately, Xu Xiaomei, with her big mouth, stabbed Xu Chuanchuan in the back as she said, "If you don't have a boyfriend, how do you explain the hickey on the back of your neck?"

Immediately, Xu Chuanchuan sensed the pressure on her hand softening. A hint of a smile had also appeared in Murong Shi's calm eyes as she said, "There's even a hickey... I see."

This time, it was Xu Chuanchuan's turn to squeeze Murong Shi's hand. She also sent the latter a glare, her eyes seemingly saying, "It's all your fault I made a fool of myself!"

However, the two people sitting across the table took Xu Chuanchuan's reaction as her silent acknowledgment.

Seizing the opportunity, Chen Lina asked, "Little Xu, what does your boyfriend do?"

Xu Chuanchuan: "..."

Meanwhile, Chen Lina asked with sparkly eyes, "Is he tall? Is he handsome?"

"He's quite tall...but he's not handsome," Xu Chuanchuan said. However, when she sensed pressure building up around her hand again, she hurriedly blurted out, "But he is very good looking!"

Xu Xiaomei giggled and asked, "What do you mean by good-looking? Does he look like a girl? Do you have a photo?"

After letting out a dry laugh, Xu Chuanchuan said, "No photos. We have only gotten together recently, and we rarely take photos."

"Eh... Make sure to take one next time. Or better yet, bring him to us," Xu Xiaomei urged.

In response, Xu Chuanchuan vaguely said, "This... Let's save this for the future."

"Do you like him?" Murong Shi suddenly asked in a casual tone.

This person really is

Xu Chuanchuan sent Murong Shi a glance. Then, she said, "I do."

"How much?"

"I...like him very, very much."

Murong Shi laughed out happily. She then flipped around Xu Chuanchuan's hand and clasped their hands together. However, Murong Shi still wasn't done with her questions as she asked, "He must have a lot of strong points. So, what made you like him?"

Xu Chuanchuan: "..." Do you have no shame?

There were so many pairs of eyes in front of her, so Xu Chuanchuan mentally struggled for some time before she bit the bullet and said, "He... Although he often bullies me, he takes very good care of me."

Xu Xiaomei curled her lips and sourly said, "Is he that good? Are you sure you're not looking at him through rose-colored glasses?"

Although Xu Chuanchuan maintained a smile on the surface, inwardly, she was weeping. How could she possibly dare bad-mouth a certain someone right in their face? Also, this someone still held control over her hand.

Then, Xu Xiaomei added, "Your boyfriend must be a closet pervert."

"Closet...pervert?" Xu Chuanchuan subconsciously glanced at the person beside her.

Murong Shi remained indifferent.

"Your boyfriend left such a mark on the back of your neck. It'd be strange if he weren't a closet pervert. Also, I heard closet perverts are extremely vigorous in bed."

Although Xu Xiaomei had deliberately suppressed her voice, Xu Chuanchuan's face still turned bright red when she heard the content of her words. This was especially true when she recalled the close call she had with Murong Shi last night. Then, she stammered, "He and Iwe've only ever kissed. We still haven't done...that."

Frowning, Xu Xiaomei said, "You two are still quite innocent."

Innocent, my ass.

The restaurant's service was very efficient, and it didn't take long for the waiters to bring the food over one after another. Along with the food's arrival, the awkward conversation finally came to an end.

Xu Chuanchuan sighed in relief and picked up her chopsticks to grab a mouthful of rice. While she was chewing, she heard Xu Xiaomei suddenly asking, "How is your boyfriend's skill in kissing?"

"Cough" Xu Chuanchuan choked on the rice and violently coughed while covering her mouth.

Seeing this, Murong Shi hurriedly put down her chopsticks and helped pat Xu Chuanchuan's back. While patting, she spoke in a partially berating voice, "Eat slowly. Here, wash it down with some soup."

Xu Chuanchuan recovered after taking a mouthful of soup. Then, she revealed a stiff smile while awkwardly moving her shoulders.

Murong Shi caught on to Xu Chuanchuan's hint and quietly withdrew her hand.

Meanwhile, seeing the blush on Xu Chuanchuan's face, Chen Lina considerately said, "Xiaomei, stop asking such direct questions. Little Xu is very shy."

However, Xu Xiaomei loved gossiping the most, so how could she possibly let go of such a good opportunity? Brushing aside Chen Lina's warning, she continued, "It's normal for couples to kiss. Little Xu, don't tell me you're such a conservative person? You're getting embarrassed over such questions?"

They normally shared a good relationship, so Xu Chuanchuan knew that Xu Xiaomei loved to gossip. If she were to avoid Xu Xiaomei's questions now, the other party might keep on bugging her about it in the future. So, Xu Chuanchuan lowered her head and quietly said, "He's quite skilled"

Xu Xiaomei suddenly started laughing out loud while pointing at Xu Chuanchuan's face. Then, she said, "Little Xu, the look on your face is so funny! Sure enough, a woman in love is blind."

Xu Chuanchuan: "..."

"He's skilled at kissing?" Little Yan, who had remained silent all this time, suddenly interjected.

Little Yan knew about her relationship with Murong Shi, so Xu Chuanchuan grew even more embarrassed. Xu Chuanchuan dared not look at Little Yan. Instead, she snuck a glance at the person seated beside her.

In response, Murong Shi turned to Xu Chuanchuan and said with a straight face, "Someone who is good at kissing should be good in bed as well."

Xu Chuanchuan: "..." Let's see how long you can keep on this act.

This meal ended up feeling like torture for Xu Chuanchuan.

After the meal, their group split up, with Chen Lina and Xu Xiaomei returning to the office and Xu Chuanchuan and Little Yan returning to the dormitory.

As for Murong Shi, not only did she follow Xu Chuanchuan and Little Yan to their apartment, but she had also shamelessly followed Xu Chuanchuan into her room. Then, after casually lying down on the bed, she said, "Sure enough, the bed is much more comfortable than the sofa. Can I spend my afternoon break here today?"

"...You're asking after you've lied down?"

Then, Murong Shi dragged Xu Chuanchuan down to the bed as well, and the two of them had a staring contest as they laid side by side to each other.

"Are you not going to sleep?" Xu Chuanchuan asked.

While subconsciously twirling Xu Chuanchuan's hair, Murong Shi said, "They mentioned someone called Xiao Li making advances at you before."

"It's not what you think I heard others saying that he is a womanizing bastard. Although he gave me some chocolate and milk tea before, I didn't accept any of them and just gave them away to other people afterward."

"I don't think I've ever given you anything."

"You've given me a cushion foundation previously."

"That's something I used before, so that doesn't count."

Then, Xu Chuanchuan awkwardly said, "I've never given you anything, either. When is your birthday?"

An uncertain gaze appeared in Murong Shi's eyes. But then, she nonchalantly said, "It's still a few more months away, so no need to hurry for that."

"Thenwhy don't I give you lipstick?" Xu Chuanchuan suggested. She wasn't used to taking things for granted.

Smiling, Murong Shi asked, "Did you not notice that I stopped using lipstick ever since we got together?"

After going through her memories, Xu Chuanchuan found that Murong Shi was indeed telling the truth.

Then, Murong Shi gently caressed Xu Chuanchuan's lips with her thumb and said in a low voice, "Wearing lipstick will make it inconvenient when I want to kiss you."

Murong Shi's last word disappeared between the two's lips and teeth.

Thanks to Xu Xiaomei's big mouth, practically everyone in the company had found out about Xu Chuanchuan getting a boyfriend. The advantage of this situation was that her colleagues had stopped trying to introduce a boyfriend to her. The disadvantage of it was that Little Li had begun pestering her again.

"I never thought you were this type of person. You were accepting my goodwill while making out with another man," Little Li said after stopping Xu Chuanchuan at the pantry's entrance.

Putting on a puzzled look, Xu Chuanchuan said, "I don't know what you're talking about."

"I thought you were shy and innocent before. You might've said you had no feelings for me on the surface, but you still accepted my gifts and strung me along. I didn't think you were such a hypocrite."

Xu Chuanchuan grew unhappy when she was inexplicably criticized. "Since when have I accepted your gifts? It's you who put those things on my table while I was away. I gave all of those things to Zhou Gong and the others. You can go ask them if you don't believe me."

Xiao Li's expression stiffened.

Xu Chuanchuan circled Xiao Li and left the pantry.

Then, after snapping out of his daze, Xiao Li caught up with Xu Chuanchuan and asked, "Did you really get a boyfriend?"

Xu Chuanchuan ignored him.

"Invite him out for lunch together some time."

Xu Chuanchuan continued ignoring Xiao Li. She also hastened her footsteps. However, just as she was about to walk past the general manager's office, her feet suddenly stopped.

Almost at the same time, the doors to the office opened as if having received her summons.

Murong Shi wore a gloomy expression on her face as she scanned Xiao Li with a sharp gaze. Then, she said to Xu Chuanchuan, "You come in."

As if having received amnesty, Xu Chuanchuan promptly slipped into the office.

After closing the door, Murong Shi unhappily said, "I saw him stopping you just now through the surveillance. What did he say to you?"

Xu Chuanchuan didn't wish to bring up those ugly words again, so she shrugged and said, "It's nothing."

Murong Shi frowned.

...

The next day, Xu Chuanchuan heard that Xiao Li had been transferred from a relatively idle position in the Engineering Department to the busy first-floor warehouse.

"Don't tell me you're responsible for that?" Xu Chuanchuan asked Murong Shi.

"Since he has so much free time, he might as well take on a busier position," Murong Shi said with a sneer.

If Xu Chuanchuan were honest, Xiao Li didn't harass her much, so she didn't expect him to meet such a fate. Meanwhile, through this incident, Xu Chuanchuan also found that Murong Shi's jealousy grew stronger and stronger. First, Murong Shi had gotten jealous over the crocodile bolster Ange gave her. Now, Murong Shi was jealous because Xiao Li had harassed her. Later that day, Murong Shi had even gotten jealous because she watched Xu Xiangxiang's live stream.

Xu Chuanchuan couldn't relax with her little sister, so she punctually watched Xu Xiangxiang's live stream at night. As a result, she couldn't go out on a date with Murong Shi.

As a compromise, Murong Shi chose to watch the stream together with Xu Chuanchuan in bed. Murong Shi had been rather patient initially. However, she started growing agitated as time passed, and she would sometimes caress and pinch Xu Chuanchuan here and there. In the end, she was no longer able to hold back her impatience as she asked, "Do you really intend to watch her stream every night?"

It was unrealistic to keep watch over Xu Xiangxiang every night. After pondering for a moment, Xu Chuanchuan said, "I'll keep an eye on her today. Afterward, I'll just put on an act to scare her."

Murong Shi stopped speaking and switched her attention back to the phone.

Xu Xiangxiang was very eloquent, and she used this eloquence to chat and play games with her viewers. Whenever she lost a game, she would reveal one of her secrets as a punishment.

While shuffling the deck of poker cards in her hand, Xu Xiangxiang smiled and said, "I don't have many secrets. Can I talk about my big sister's instead?"

Xu Chuanchuan: "..."

Facing the camera, Xu Xiangxiang mumbled to herself, "My sister was afraid of telling others when she got her first period. I don't know what went through her mind, but whenever her underwear got dirty, she would run to the bathroom and change into a new one, and she ended up using all of her underwear that day. Afterward..." While laughing maniacally by herself, Xu Xiangxiang continued, "Afterward, she went to school without any underwear on the next day, and her pants ended up getting completely stained by blood!"

Xu Chuanchuan: "..." Xu Chuanchuan began wondering whether this little sister of hers was adopted.

Xu Chuanchuan suddenly felt an itch on her left cheek as Murong Shi gently rubbed her nails against her face. Then, while holding back a smile, Murong Shi said, "Quite the childhood you have there."

Xu Chuanchuan: "..."

Following this, so long as Xu Xiangxiang lost a game, she would expose one of Xu Chuanchuan's childhood secrets. This infuriated Xu Chuanchuan, and she hesitated whether she should call her little sister to give the other party a scolding.

Meanwhile, Murong Shi looked at Xu Chuanchuan with delight in her eyes as she said, "So, it turns out that you have so many little secrets. What else do I not know about you?"

To salvage her reputation, Xu Chuanchuan stubbornly said, "Those are just things Xu Xiangxiang made up to slander me."

Then, in a serious tone, Murong Shi asked, "What's your biggest secret, then?"

Xu Chuanchuan's biggest secret was probably her identity as a yuri novel author. However, there was no way she could reveal this.

Xu Chuanchuan shook her head and responded with a question, "What about you?"

"I have no secrets."

"That's not possible, right?"

"You've seen even my bare buttocks. What other secrets can I have?"

"..."
