After Being Bent by Reader

Chapter 75: Pt.1

Xu Chuanchuan's period arriving one whole week ahead of schedule had caught both Xu Chuanchuan and Murong Shi off guard. As a result, their intimate moment came to an abrupt halt.

To make matters worse, Xu Chuanchuan suddenly started feeling a cramping pain coming from her lower abdomen. In the end, Murong Shi carried her to the bathroom, and the two of them took another hot shower.

Although the bed sheet was dirtied, the mattress underneath, fortunately, had its plastic packaging still on. So, cleaning it was an easy task. And as they didn't have any extra bed sheets lying around, Murong Shi reused the previously removed one.

Murong Shi was a little out of breath after she finished replacing the bed sheets. Then, when she caught a glimpse of Xu Chuanchuan holding onto her stomach, she hurriedly asked, "Does it hurt?"

At this point, the blush on Xu Chuanchuan's face had long since faded and replacing it was a pale complexion. Then, after gasping in pain, Xu Chuanchuan feebly said, "My periods never hurt before. I don't know what's going on this time."

Seeing as there was no brown sugar in the apartment, Murong Shi made a cup of honey water for Xu Chuanchuan. After drinking it, Xu Chuanchuan felt a little better.

"I'm sorry," Xu Chuanchuan apologized with a guilty expression as she laid in Murong Shi's arms.

While helping Xu Chuanchuan massage her lower abdomen, Murong Shi laughed and asked, "What's with the apology?"

Xu Chuanchuan's eyes darted around for a moment before she said, "You still haven't"

The atmosphere before had been wonderful. Adding on to the fact that they hadn't had sex for a few days now, the two of them had been very eager to do it just now. If it wasn't for her period, they might have been able to have fun for the entire night.

In response, Murong Shi looked at the woman in her arms with a gentle gaze and said, "I'll put it on your tab for now."

"I'll help you with it," Xu Chuanchuan said before struggling out of Murong Shi's arms.

"What are you looking for?" Murong Shi asked as she watched Xu Chuanchuan ruffling about, searching for something.

"That thingy. Where did you throw it?"

It took a moment for Murong Shi to realize that Xu Chuanchuan was talking about the vibrator. Then, she caught Xu Chuanchuan's fumbling hands and said, "No need to look for it. It's out of batteries."

"Already?" Xu Chuanchuan reacted in surprise.

Murong Shi pulled on Xu Chuanchuan's chin and started nibbling on the latter's lips. Then, she said, "Don't be so depressed. I'm not that thirsty."

Despite Murong Shi's words, Xu Chuanchuan still felt somewhat guilty about the situation. So, as compensation, she gave Murong Shi a passionate kiss.

This time, Murong Shi was the first to run out of breath. After letting go of Xu Chuanchuan, Murong Shi pressed the shorter woman's head tightly into her bosom and hoarsely said, "Sleep."

Xu Chuanchuan's period this time was ruthless, and it put her through unbearable pain.

For the next few days, Murong Shi had Aunt Lian make chicken soup for Xu Chuanchuan every day to help with the menstrual cramps. She would also conscientiously wash both their underwear every day. And even when Xu Chuanchuan felt parched and wanted to drink water, Murong Shi would bring a glass for her right away.

Never had Xu Chuanchuan received such a caring service before. As she watched Murong Shi busily moving in and out of the room while she was lying comfortably in bed, she jokingly said, "I feel like I'm going through childbirth."

After removing the rubber gloves she wore, Murong Shi came over and helped raise the whale bolster Xu Chuanchuan was leaning against. Then, she said, "It's a pity there's no child involved."

Going along with the flow, Xu Chuanchuan asked, "Do you like children?"

Murong Shi looked down at Xu Chuanchuan with a gentle smile. Then, she softly asked, "If I say I like them, are you willing to give them to me?"

Whenever Murong Shi looked at her with such a gaze, Xu Chuanchuan would find herself caving into whatever demands Murong Shi had. This time was no exception, and she had very nearly said, "I'm willing." However, she snapped out of her daze before doing so. Then, she said, "I can't give birth to any even if I'm willing. There's no such technology available right now."

"That's a pity," Murong Shi said, pretending to put on a regretful look. Then, while caressing Xu Chuanchuan's face, she continued, "But no matter. Even if I don't have children, I'm satisfied so long as I have a wife."

Even during the most intimate moments in their several months of interaction, they would only refer to each other as "Dearest" or "Darling." This was the first time Xu Chuanchuan had heard the term "wife" coming out of Murong Shi's mouth. Even so, she found the term surprisingly pleasant to the ears.

Xu Chuanchuan felt her heart trembling slightly. Then, after regaining her bearing, she said in a shaky voice, "Who's your wife..."

"You are."

Resolve filled these two words.

Xu Chuanchuan couldn't help but smile when she heard Murong Shi's reply. However, she quickly retracted her smile and said, "You can't casually use this term. If you want to use it, you'll have to bear the responsibility for it for the rest of your life."

With a passionate gaze, Murong Shi said, "Let alone this lifetime, I'll even bear it for the next life and the one after that."

Pillow talk was intoxicating, and Xu Chuanchuan felt herself close to floating into the clouds. Then, after calming herself, she said, "Don't speak too soon. We might not even meet in the next life."

"Just say whether you're willing or not."

"Let me think" Xu Chuanchuan put on a pondering look.

After waiting for several seconds and not getting an answer, Murong Shi started growing impatient. So, she pounced on Xu Chuanchuan and started tickling her while asking, "Are you willing, or not?"

Xu Chuanchuan giggled and rolled around on the bed. Then, less than half a minute later, she surrendered and said, "I'm willing! I'm willing! Stop tickling! Ah!"

Murong Shi finally released Xu Chuanchuan after hearing a satisfying answer. Then, she made her way to the makeup table and picked up a tube of lipstick.

After tidying up her messy hair and clothing, Xu Chuanchuan looked at Murong Shi's actions and asked, "You're putting up makeup this late at night?"

Murong Shi had exquisite facial features. Her eyes, in particular, were vivid and unique. She would look gorgeous even if she wore nothing but lipstick as makeup. Meanwhile, the lipstick she chose this time was a red one. Despite the lipstick having such an intense color, Murong Shi did not look tacky in it at all.

Murong Shi did not reply to Xu Chuanchuan's question. Instead, after pursing her thin lips, she slowly walked back to the bed.

"How does it look?"

In Xu Chuanchuan's eyes, Murong Shi was flawless even without any makeup. The woman was nothing short of a fairy. Murong Shi's beauty was so captivating that it had already captivated Xu Chuanchuan the first time she met Murong Shi. And at this point, Xu Chuanchuan had fallen so deep that she could no longer extricate herself from Murong Shi's beauty.

Her eyes thoroughly attracted toward Murong Shi's gorgeous lips, Xu Chuanchuan subconsciously nodded and said, "It looks good. Is this a new lipstick?"

Xu Chuanchuan initially thought Murong Shi had the sudden urge to show off her newly bought lipstick, hence this situation. However, to Xu Chuanchuan's surprise, Murong Shi suddenly leaned in, held her head, and accurately planted her lips on hers.

Xu Chuanchuan was slightly stunned.

The kiss was but a simple one, and Murong Shi quickly released Xu Chuanchuan.

However, even after the separation, Xu Chuanchuan was still feeling a little dazed by this situation.

Murong Shi wasn't trying to kiss Xu Chuanchuan. Looking at Xu Chuanchuan's dazed expression, Murong Shi looked at the lips that were stained by her lipstick and raised an eyebrow, saying, "You belong to me now that I've placed my seal. Nobody is allowed to steal you from me from now on."

Xu Chuanchuan lifted a hand and tried to wipe her lips. However, she paused before she could enact her thoughts.

In all honesty, Xu Chuanchuan never thought Murong Shi would make such a move. Although it was a little childish, she still felt warmth enveloping her heart.

Women were vain creatures, and Xu Chuanchuan was no exception. With how excellent a person Murong Shi was, she could easily find a girlfriend much better than Xu Chuanchuan. Yet, she did not.

For an instant, Xu Chuanchuan had the urge to go to a high place and announce to everyone in the world, Look, this is my girlfriend. She belongs to me alone.

Xu Chuanchuan suddenly wanted to cry.

Sniffling, Xu Chuanchuan said in self-ridicule, "Who would even want someone like me? Only someone as blind as you would find me attractive."

Xu Chuanchuan admitted that she had low self-esteem.

In response, Murong Shi held up Xu Chuanchuan's head and said, "I'm not blind. You're worth my love."

Xu Chuanchuan hated herself for being unable to take a hint. Moving her mouth, she said, "I have average looks and no special abilities. If someday...someday you meet someone better than me, and if you like this person, I won't blame you. Really."

Murong Shi's expression darkened. "Am I that much of a faithless person in your heart?"

"I didn't mean that. I" Xu Chuanchuan stammered.

"Xu Chuanchuan," Murong Shi interrupted with a serious expression on her face.

"Hm?" Xu Chuanchuan suddenly started growing nervous.

Murong Shi admitted that she wasn't perfect when it came to sweet-talking. Meanwhile, Xu Chuanchuan's words had made her very unhappy. However, when Murong Shi looked deeper into the matter, she couldn't help but wonder if the problem lay with herself.

After readjusting her emotions, Murong Shi softly asked, "Am I not doing well enough?"

In response, Xu Chuanchuan hurriedly shook her head and said, "No, you've done really well. The problem lies with me."

"Your problem is that you fail to see your own strong points."

"...What strong points do I have? I'm stingy, dumb, and silly. I also eat a lot."

Murong Shi revealed an angry smile. Then, crossing her arms, she leisurely looked at Xu Chuanchuan and asked, "Who said that?"

With a sullen expression, Xu Chuanchuan said, "My little sister is the one who said I'm stingy, while you were the one who called me dumb and silly. You also said I eat a lot."

Murong Shi choked for a moment. Then, she said, "I never said that you were dumb and silly."

"What do you mean 'never'?! I remember it clearly!"

"When?"

"You said that immediately after joining my reader group as Passerby Shi!" Xu Chuanchuan stated confidently with her chest puffed up.

Murong Shi revealed a troubled expression. Then, she said, "Did I? I don't remember it at all."

Do you think I'll fall for that? Not believing Murong Shi's act for even a second, Xu Chuanchuan grabbed her phone and said, "Just you wait. I'll bring up the chat history for you."

However, when Xu Chuanchuan opened up her QQ messenger and entered her reader group, she suddenly recalled that she had only recently removed "Passerby Shi" from the chat.

Can I still find the chat history even after kicking her out of the group?

While Xu Chuanchuan was pondering this question, she suddenly had her phone snatched out of her hands.

Meanwhile, after putting the phone to a place where Xu Chuanchuan couldn't reach, Murong Shi walked back to the bed and said, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that about you back then. Not only are you not dumb and silly, but you are even smart and cute."

"..." Xu Chuanchuan decided not to bring up old accounts after being praised.

Then, Murong Shi knelt on the bed and carefully helped Xu Chuanchuan wipe the excess lipstick off of her lips, saying, "By the way, your words just reminded me of something."

While letting Murong Shi have her way with her, Xu Chuanchuan asked, "What is it?"

"The thing you've been worried about should be my worry instead. I'm scared that you'll move on to another person in the future."

Xu Chuanchuan was momentarily rendered speechless. Then, she asked, "How is that possible? Who else could make me fall for them?"

Staring straight into Xu Chuanchuan's eyes, Murong Shi said, "Tang Xin."
