One Life, One Incarnation, Beautiful Bones

While she was standing there with remote control raised and analyzing the temperature, Zhousheng Chen had already stepped out of the bathroom.

"What are you analyzing?"

"Temperature. Worried it'll be too cold and you'll catch a cold."

Even from simply looking at her from behind, he could perceive her seriousness.

All of a sudden, his body started to grow hot. He wanted her.

This sort of feeling had come over him several times in Bremen, but each time, he had suppressed it. But although the person before him was dressed properly and modestly, there still seemed to be a force drawing him to her that he could not seem to break free from.

Perhaps, he did not need to break free of it.

As Zhousheng Chen walked over to her, Shi Yi had already finished adjusting the temperature and had set the remote control down on the desk. He stepped close to her, lowered his head, and caressed her neck with his lips. Shi Yi instantly froze but then the next second, her body softened and melted.

She liked to wear collared, cotton dresses because they were not overly revealing.

Zhousheng Chen hooked his finger onto the back neckline and pulled it down slightly, exposing some of the skin of her back. His kisses continued there. This unfamiliar sensation was somewhat torturous to her, and she shifted her body slightly.

"You don't need to turn it up too high. We will be sweating later," he told her in a low voice.

Shi Yi answered with an "mm" and closed her eyes tightly.

The whole time, he stood behind her, lingering between her neck and back. He called her name gently and did not try to hide the change that was occurring in his lower body as he held her in front of himself, pressed tightly to him.

Shi Yi could sense that this time, he really wanted it.

She grew even more anxious.

She wanted to give it to him, but she was also afraid.

Right on the brink of it happening, she started to fear. Fear that he would be disappointed with her body. Fear that she did not know enough about this and would cause him to feel that it was dry and uninteresting...... The more she thought, the more nervous she became until eventually Zhousheng Chen could sense it as well. "Is this not a good time?"

She answered quietly, "No..."

"Or do you not like this?"

"No..."

"Scared?"

She wanted to say yes, but thinking about it, last time in Bremen, they had already completely bared themselves to one another inside the hotel room, and that time, she had been the one who had initiated it. Why was she suddenly so scared now?... She did not know.

With both his hands, Zhousheng Chen took her dress by its hem and lifted it up from the bottom, taking the dress off of her. He tossed it lightly onto the desk.

He did not disrobe himself and instead, shifted so that he was against her skin and began to kiss her even more deeply, from her collarbone to her shoulder. Her face and ears glowed red as Shi Yi tried to keep away from the touch of her body to his behind her, but one of his hands held her, not allowing her to move away. Neither anxious nor impatient, only slowly taking things deeper and deeper. When his hand started to undo her undergarments, he asked, "Do you remember I told you I like to collect Wu songs?"

Shi Yi gave an "mm." A very tiny, imperceptible sound.

She could feel the clasp of her bra being undone, and then the undergarment fell to the ground.
