Chapter 591: Chapter 609: The Feeling of Consoling Each Other

After Li Yifei finished untying the ropes, Su Mengxin then covered him with the quilt and ushered the three girls out of the room.

Xiao Ling’er and the others did not linger this time. They also felt quite awkward, so they took the opportunity to slip away.

For the rest of the afternoon, Li Yifei did not see the three girls until dinner time when he finally encountered them again.

By now, they had returned to their normal selves, talking and laughing as before, and occasionally teasing Li Yifei while joking around, but they did not go too far.

No one drank any alcohol that evening. After dinner, everyone just chatted in the living room for a while before retreating to rest.

When Su Mengxin and Li Yifei returned to their room, Su Mengxin shook her head and said, "If only those three girls could always be this well-behaved."

Li Yifei replied with a smile, "In life, being happy is all that matters."

Su Mengxin nodded and said, "That’s why I kind of envy them. By the way, you can’t bathe, so let me help you wipe down your body."

Li Yifei quickly said, "Is that really necessary?"

"Are you afraid I won’t serve you well?" Su Mengxin said with a smile, looking at Li Yifei.

Li Yifei laughed awkwardly, "It’s not that, just that..."

"There are no buts. First, you are my good friend, second, you got injured because you were saving my good friend, and you were here to give me a hand. I am responsible for this, and besides..." she continued, "After what happened last night, what’s there to be shy about?"

Li Yifei forced a laugh, feeling most uneasy about being reminded of that incident. Whenever Su Mengxin mentioned it, he instantly lost all his nerve.

Su Mengxin was very careful and gentle as she wiped Li Yifei down, especially when cleaning his legs, making sure to wipe every little spot thoroughly. If Li Yifei’s wound had been properly treated at the time, he would not have suddenly contracted tetanus.

After cleaning his upper body and legs, Su Mengxin looked down towards Li Yifei’s waist and her face immediately turned red.

Li Yifei quickly said, "Maybe... maybe this is enough?"

Biting her lip, Su Mengxin replied, "It’s better to finish off; you’ll sleep more comfortably."

"Really, Mengxin, you don’t have to," Li Yifei insisted.

Flipping her hair, Su Mengxin’s face lit up with a brilliant, sweet smile, "I kissed you yesterday, are you still embarrassed about using my hands today?"

"This..."

"Lift your hips a bit," Su Mengxin said, already starting to take off Li Yifei’s pants without waiting for his response.

Li Yifei awkwardly cooperated with Su Mengxin, feeling quite dumbfounded. It seemed he wasn’t meant to wear pants these days — Xu Shanshan had pulled them off at the hospital, Xiao Ling’er and the other two girls had stripped them off here, and now Su Mengxin was doing the same.

Blushing, Su Mengxin chided, "You bad guy, you’re not even being good while sick."

"This... it’s a natural reaction."

"Hmph, my mouth hurt so much from the bump yesterday," Su Mengxin said, gripping a little harder, as if punishing Li Yifei’s member.

Li Yifei felt even more embarrassed. He had been too blissful yesterday, especially at the most thrilling moment when he lost control a little. His hips were thrusting, and since Su Mengxin wasn’t quite in sync, it was normal for it to hurt.

But thankfully, Su Mengxin was already wiping him down with a towel. After a few strokes, she pulled his pants back up, which allowed Li Yifei to breathe a sigh of relief. However, even if he wouldn’t admit it, he knew he felt a touch of disappointment.

Su Mengxin tidied up and went out, but it was almost an hour before she returned. When she came back, she was only wearing a thin silver-grey silk nightgown, her hair fluffy, clearly having just taken a bath.

"You’re still awake?" Su Mengxin sat down at the edge of the bed, lifting her arms to gather her hair.

Li Yifei turned his head to look, and from under Su Mengxin’s armpit, he could see a corner of her pajamas, and right then Su Mengxin wasn’t wearing a bra, allowing him to glimpse the faint outline of her breasts.

This excited Li Yifei instantaneously, he had already seen every inch of Su Mengxin’s body, including her most private parts. It could be said that there wasn’t a single inch of her skin that Li Yifei hadn’t seen, but secretly catching a glimpse of Su Mengxin’s exposed skin somehow seemed even more thrilling than seeing her naked that day.

Su Mengxin didn’t hear Li Yifei’s response and turned her head to look at him, only to see Li Yifei staring at her with a straight, fixed gaze. Following his line of sight, she realized what he was looking at. Her face immediately flushed as she said, "You’ve already seen everything; why are you still reacting so strongly?"

Li Yifei couldn’t help but swallow his saliva, which Su Mengxin caught him doing. However, he wasn’t as embarrassed but instead said with a smile, "Seeing it like this gives a thrilling sensation of peeping."

With a snort of laughter, Su Mengxin responded, "You men just have a natural inclination for sneakiness."

Li Yifei laughed heartily and said, "Yes, that’s the problem with men, unlike women who, when they like someone, can devote themselves entirely."

"True, when you fall for someone, it’s for a lifetime. Even if he isn’t perfect and has all kinds of flaws, you just can’t help falling in love without looking back."

Was this Su Mengxin’s way of confessing?

"Well, I don’t even have a boyfriend, so why am I getting sentimental? Let’s sleep now, Yingying has entrusted you to me, and I can’t let you have a bad night’s sleep. If you’re not rested, Yingying will blame me." Su Mengxin gave Li Yifei a slight smile and had already lifted the blanket to get into bed.

With only one blanket on the bed, Li Yifei felt odd. Su Mengxin mentioned Xu Yingying, yet she was sharing a bed and a blanket with him. What did that mean?

The room was very quiet, and both Li Yifei and Su Mengxin stopped talking. After a while, Su Mengxin turned to face him and said, "Yifei, about what happened yesterday... do you think I’m cheap?"

Li Yifei did not expect Su Mengxin to bring up this subject. He coughed lightly and said, "Of course not. We all had too much to drink and got carried away."

"I know I was drunk, but I’ve never had a boyfriend, and to do such a thing with you, especially in front of the three of them, I just feel like I’ve acted ridiculously."

"It certainly was absurd, but we were pushed to that point, and there was nothing we could do. Haha, come to think of it, I really got the better deal here, shouldn’t you make me take responsibility?"

With a light laugh, Su Mengxin said, "I’m not quite there yet, am I? Actually, I was quite comfortable at the time, you must be pretty experienced."

Finding Su Mengxin’s tone relaxed, Li Yifei was less awkward and said, "It was okay, I guess."

Su Mengxin gently pinched Li Yifei’s arm and said, "If you say you’re fat, you puff up. So many of my firsts have been ruined by you; the first man to carry me, the first to undress me, my first kiss, and then that matter yesterday. I can’t believe it, I haven’t even had a real relationship yet, and I’ve done such things with you."

Li Yifei laughed and said, "Having so many of Huaxia’s number one beauty’s first times, I really am honored."

"Proud, aren’t you?"

"Of course I am proud. If other men knew about it, they would certainly be envious to death. But, I can’t talk about it with anyone else, what a pity."

"You really are full of yourself, aren’t you? Alright, let’s sleep nicely now."

Li Yifei agreed and they both stopped talking. They knew neither of them was asleep, yet they both closed their eyes, forcing themselves to sleep, but that only made it harder to fall asleep. Li Yifei used to be able to force himself to sleep, but it wasn’t working now – Su Mengxin’s allure was just too strong.

"Sigh, I really can’t fall asleep like this, how about... you just hold me?" Su Mengxin finally couldn’t bear it and spoke up.

"Okay!" Li Yifei replied eagerly, his arm slipping under Su Mengxin’s neck.

Su Mengxin snuggled up to Li Yifei’s side, then rested her head in his armpit, placing her hand on his chest, and softly said, "This feels much better. And you don’t have to be so restrained anymore. You’ve already touched and seen what should and shouldn’t be touched, so do whatever you want now."

Li Yifei chuckled softly and said, "Then I won’t be polite." He turned his hand over but merely gently touched Su Mengxin’s cheek.

Although Su Mengxin expected Li Yifei to reach for her breasts, he instead touched her face. The sensation was truly pleasant, feeling more like tenderness. She gently rubbed her cheek against his hand, pulled it to her lips for a soft kiss, then placed the hand back on his chest, closed her eyes, and felt utterly content.

Holding Su Mengxin like this, Li Yifei too felt an extraordinary sensation. It wasn’t about excitable passion or being soul-stirring but rather a quiet, peaceful feeling of simple contentment. Holding Su Mengxin was like holding a wife with whom he had shared years of companionship and mutual affection. There was less of a fiery passion but more of a warm intimacy.

This feeling, he had only sensed a bit of it with Xu Yingying, but with Su Mengxin, it was so profound. This made Li Yifei profoundly confused. Did he really not have feelings for Su Mengxin? Did he truly not hope for anything emotional to happen between them?
