After Being Bent by Reader

It's now or never!

Xu Chuanchuan put her hands on Murong Shi's hands that were resting on her waist and took a moment to gather her thoughts. Just as she was about to put some distance between herself and Murong Shi...

Murong Shi suddenly pulled Xu Chuanchuan even closer to herself. Then, in an affectionate tone, she slowly said, "Xu Chuanchuan, be my girlfriend."

Xu Chuanchuan instantly forgot what she was going to do next. Simultaneously, an untimely voice appeared in her mind, Shouldn't I be the one to say these words?

Xu Chuanchuan fell into a daze after Murong Shi stole the words out of her mouth. After a long while, she snapped out of her daze, removed Murong Shi's hands from her waist, and turned around.

After adapting to the darkness, Xu Chuanchuan could vaguely see the contours of Murong Shi's face. Those slender and dark eyes exuded a strange light, and the fiery passion they radiated deterred Xu Chuanchuan from looking directly at them.

Located behind Murong Shi was the city's breathtaking night scene. Yet, Xu Chuanchuan found that the person standing before her was even more breathtaking.

For a moment, Xu Chuanchuan found herself bewitched by the beautiful face in front of her.

While Xu Chuanchuan wasn't sure whether she had bent or not, what she did know was that she liked Murong Shi. She eagerly anticipated the days where she could rightfully be together with this person.

Meanwhile, Murong Shi couldn't help but grow anxious when she heard no reply from Xu Chuanchuan. With a hint of severity in her tone, she asked, "Did you turn dumb? Or are you unwilling?"

"No—" Xu Chuanchuan hurriedly refuted. Then, grabbing onto Murong Shi's wrists in a panic, she said, "I was going to tell you this tonight."

"So, your answer is?"

"I agree."

They were unable to see each other's expression clearly. Even so, Xu Chuanchuan still managed to hear a clear sigh of relief. Subsequently, she felt Murong Shi pulling her into a tight embrace.

"There's no going back."

"Mhm..."

After removing all of her disguises and defenses, Xu Chuanchuan reached out and returned Murong Shi's hug.

Although their surroundings were noisy, Xu Chuanchuan could still hear the furious pounding of a heartbeat. Whether this heartbeat was hers or Murong Shi's, nobody knew.

This was the first time they had embraced each other so intimately, and Xu Chuanchuan found the experience to be beyond words. Her body felt a little warm, her heart was a little flustered, and her spirit felt a little satisfied. However, she couldn't help but feel that something was missing.

It wasn't until Murong Shi had released her and accurately sealed her lips in the dark that Xu Chuanchuan felt the hole in her heart being filled.

During this period, a few people had passed by their area. However, the two paid no attention to these people as they firmly locked each other in this concealed, shadowy area while feeling each other's heartbeats. As they repeatedly took the breath out of each other's mouth, their breathing gradually grew heavier.

They kissed for a long, long time.

As a romance author, Xu Chuanchuan had written plenty of impressive confession scenes for her protagonists. These scenes had stimulated many people and caused them to flood her with donations. Yet, even though she had moved the hearts of many people, her works had rarely ever managed to move her own heart. This was because she had once been a straight woman. She found it difficult to put herself in her characters' shoes.

Tonight, however, Xu Chuanchuan found her heart being moved.

…

Whenever Xu Chuanchuan recalled the scene that night, she would find herself being filled with indescribably romantic feelings.

After Ange was done listening to Xu Chuanchuan retelling her tale, she snorted and said: "Confessing in a dark place? Can you be any funnier?"

Xu Chuanchuan: ".........You deserve to be single."

After officially getting together, no significant changes had come to the interactions between Xu Chuanchuan and Murong Shi. This was because the company's business was booming after its reformation, so Murong Shi ended up becoming busier and busier by the day.

The only change that occurred was that Murong Shi had become even more fearless than before. She would often call Xu Chuanchuan during work hours and have the latter bring her a cup of coffee. And once Xu Chuanchuan entered her office and closed the doors…

One day, Zhou Gong, one of Xu Chuanchuan's colleagues at the Engineering Department asked, "Little Xu, have you been secretly eating snacks recently?"

"No?" Xu Chuanchuan replied in confusion.

"We keep seeing you leaving for the pantry and returning with swollen lips recently. We thought you were secretly eating some spicy snacks," Zhou Gong said.

The company forbade employees from eating in the office.

While everyone started laughing because of Zhou Gong's words, Xu Chuanchuan dared not follow up to those words. She also couldn't help but wish she could dig a hole and hide herself in it right now.

At another time, inside the spacious general manager's office, Murong Shi boldly grabbed onto Xu Chuanchuan's breasts right in front of Little Yan's face and solemnly said, "Have you grown some meat recently? Why do they feel bigger?"

No matter how serious of an expression Murong Shi made, Xu Chuanchuan's face still became as red as a tomato.

As for Little Yan, who had just reached adulthood recently, she covered her face in embarrassment and protested, "You two are perverts!"

After saying so, Little Yan ran out of the office, though not forgetting to close the door on her way out.

After that incident, Xu Chuanchuan would turn a deaf ear to every excuse Murong Shi used to get her to go to her office.

Some time later, Little Yan was finally unable to hold back her curiosity and asked, "Chuanchuan, have you done that with my cousin already?"

With how innocent Little Yan was, Xu Chuanchuan assumed the girl's question would be just as innocent. So, without overthinking the question, Xu Chuanchuan truthfully answered, "Yes."

Little Yan immediately revealed a horrified look. With widened eyes, she said, "Heavens! Aren't you two progressing a little too quickly?!"

It was indeed a little fast for them to officialize their relationship after only going on dates for a week. Putting on an awkward smile, Xu Chuanchuan said, "Since we've already confirmed our feelings for each other, there's no need to drag things out. Holding it in won't do any good to anybody. It's best to let such matters take place naturally."

Little Yan's expression underwent several rapid changes, her mouth opening and closing repeatedly as she hesitated to speak.

Seeing this, Xu Chuanchuan rubbed the girl's head and said, "Make sure to keep it a secret."

Then, unable to hold back her curiosity any longer, Little Yan held onto Xu Chuanchuan's hand and asked, "I only have one question. Which one of you is on top?"

"On top?" Xu Chuanchuan blinked in confusion.

"In layman terms… Who's in the dominant position? Is it my cousin, or you? It shouldn't be you, right? You don't look like you understand these things. My cousin, on the other hand, is probably an old scoundrel. But my cousin is quite the tsundere, and tsunderes are mostly submissives. Damn, just thinking about it is oddly satisfying."

The more Little Yan spoke, the faster and more excited she became. In the end, it became impossible to tell whether she was blushing from embarrassment or excitement.

Meanwhile, as a yuri author, Xu Chuanchuan would be brain dead if she still couldn't understand what Little Yan was talking about.

Immediately, Xu Chuanchuan shook off Little Yan's hands. Then, with a blush on her face, she stammered, "I was only talking about how we are officially dating now! What n-n-n-nonsense are you thinking about?!"

"Only dating?" Little Yan asked, stunned.

"Of course!" Xu Chuanchuan said loudly.

"Is that so…" Little Yan muttered in disappointment.

Afterward, Xu Chuanchuan secretly told Murong Shi about this matter.

After listening to Xu Chuanchuan's tale, Murong Shi couldn't help but comment, "As expected of a veteran fujoshi. Little Yan knows quite a lot."

Xu Chuanchuan was rendered speechless.

After the time Little Yan nearly exposed her identity as a novel author, this was the second time Little Yan's knowledge had shocked Xu Chuanchuan.

While Xu Chuanchuan was immersed in her thoughts, Murong Shi furrowed her brows and said, "Do you think I'm an old scoundrel?"

They had just gotten together, and their relationship still wasn't stabilized, so Xu Chuanchuan dared not speak truthfully. After sending Murong Shi a glare, she vaguely said, "Isn't it because you touched my breasts right in front of her face last time?"

Murong Shi circled the tip of her tongue between her lips and teeth. Then, she grabbed Xu Chuanchuan's hands and mischievously said, "I'll give you a chance to touch me back."

Upon hearing Murong Shi's words, Xu Chuanchuan glanced at the two ample mounds in front of her and subconsciously gulped. If she were to be honest, she was a little tempted…

However, she was different from a certain someone!

Moreover, Xu Chuanchuan felt that once she succumbed to the temptation, based on Murong Shi's personality, the woman would probably do even worse things to her. It definitely wouldn't be a worthwhile trade.

"I'm not touching."

Murong Shi simply took the rejection as Xu Chuanchuan being shy. Then, when she flipped Xu Chuanchuan's hands around and saw the calluses on Xu Chuanchuan's right wrist, she casually asked, "Do you often play computer games?"

"No, I never played games."

"What hobbies do you have, then?"

Xu Chuanchuan only had one hobby, and that was writing novels. However, there was no way she could reveal this matter.

"Does eating count?"

"...Aside from this, don't you have any other pursuits?"

After racking her mind for some time, Xu Chuanchuan said, "I like making money."

Raising an eyebrow, Murong Shi said, "You consider earning that pitiful monthly salary as making money?"

I can't say it, I can't say it.

Xu Chuanchuan awkwardly laughed and quickly shifted the topic. "Actually… We've only spent a short time with each other, so I don't really know much about you."

After pondering in silence for a moment, Murong Shi said, "If you want to get to know a person quickly, there's one easy way to do so."

"What is it?"

Then, Murong Shi took a long look at Xu Chuanchuan before saying, "Cohabitation."

"..." Xu Chuanchuan's lips twitched. "Let's pass on this for now. I-It's still a little too soon."

Murong Shi's lips curled into a smile. Then, she playfully massaged Xu Chuanchuan's palms and asked, "How long do you think we should interact before we move in together?"

"T-This… I-I really think it shouldn't be rushed…"

Xu Chuanchuan didn't even need to think to know what cohabitation meant. However, she still wasn't mentally prepared to take that step yet. When she thought about doing that with Murong Shi, she felt like she would go crazy. She would rather prefer to take things one step at a time with her relationship.

Murong Shi naturally wouldn't force Xu Chuanchuan into living together. Though, a hint of regret could be heard when she said, "It's getting late. You should go up now. Goodnight."

"Goodnight," Xu Chuanchuan said. However, when she placed her hand on the car lock, she suddenly felt that something was amiss.

She's letting me go, just like that?

Ever since they officialized their relationship, their dinner dates would always end with Murong Shi giving her a long kiss before reluctantly letting her go. Yet, no such thing had happened tonight.

Did she get mad because I didn't answer her question about living together? But she doesn't look like she's angry.

Xu Chuanchuan retracted her hand.

Seeing this, Murong Shi asked, "What's wrong?"

Xu Chuanchuan's gaze briefly scanned through Murong Shi's lips. Then, she carefully asked, "Do you think my kissing skills are terrible?"

Murong Shi was momentarily stunned. Then, she stifled a laugh before saying, "Have I ever said you were terrible at kissing?"

You never said it before, but a certain tycoon who thinks she can mess with people just because she donated some money did say so…

Xu Chuanchuan agonized for a while before asking, "So, is it not bad?"

Then, putting on a stern look, Murong Shi said, "You almost bit my tongue last night."

"I didn't do it on purpose."

Murong Shi nonchalantly snorted.

Xu Chuanchuan felt her fragile self-esteem triggered by this laughter. Then, she straightened her back and said, "Can you turn off the lights?"

Murong Shi continued looking at Xu Chuanchuan with a playful smile. "Why?"

"..."

After realizing that a certain someone was confidently waiting for her to make a fool of herself, Xu Chuanchuan quickly dismissed her plans and turned around to leave. However, before she could open the car door, a powerful force suddenly pulled her back.

The interior of the car darkened. Before Xu Chuanchuan could even scream, a familiar kiss descended upon her.
