"Like this? It seems to hurt a bit."
Chen Luoqiu's sweet voice came through, carrying a hint of laziness.
Alex swallowed hard and said, "You're using too much force. Listen to me, be gentler... Are you listening to me?"
She said, "I'm listening, mhm... I'm doing what you said."
"Do you feel any better?"
"It feels a bit strange. It's like I'm giving myself a breast enhancement massage." She chuckled softly.
"Use a little more force. Do you remember how I did it in the dream?" Alex said.
Chen Luoqiu fell silent. After a while, she was heard muttering, "It should be this much pressure, but it's weird; it's not that same feeling."
"That's because I'm not the one helping you. It's like this when you do it yourself."
Alex chuckled secretly.
She laughed along as well. "Then what should I do? I'm uncomfortable."
Hearing this, Alex felt an itch in his heart and egged her on again. "How about this? I know a way to make yourself happy, but you have to move your hand a bit."
"Are you going to teach me how to masturbate?" Chen Luoqiu asked with a hint of amusement.
"Ahem... Don't say it like that, it'll get censored." Alex felt a bit embarrassed.
"I'll tell you a secret. Sometimes when I'm under a lot of pressure, I choose to let myself relax a bit." She lowered her voice, a sense of charm coming through the phone.
Alex's heart was racing. He quickly asked, "How do you relax?"
Chen Luoqiu stopped talking. Only the sound of breathing came through, as if she were communicating with him silently.
After a while, Chen Luoqiu sighed, her voice becoming dejected. "Doing this makes me feel even lonelier. I want to see you. You taught me so many things in the dream that I can't go back to how I was before."
This meant that after tasting delicacies, she could no longer get used to the bland soup of the past.
A strong impulse immediately surged in Alex's heart. He spoke without thinking, "I'll come find you. There's no traffic at night; it won't take even half an hour to get to your place."
There was no sound from the other end for a long time, only the girl's faint breathing.
Alex sighed in his heart, knowing he had been reckless. For a girl to agree to such a request in the middle of the night required immense courage.
Besides, Chen Luoqiu's home environment wasn't suitable for a tryst, and they couldn't go anywhere else in the middle of the night. Their underage IDs wouldn't allow them to stay in a hotel.
He just hoped Chen Luoqiu would agree without hesitation. Even though the request was absurd and unreasonable, he couldn't help but think selfishly like that.
The girl's silence made him feel slightly discouraged. Just as he was about to give up, Chen Luoqiu's trembling voice came through: "Come then, just don't let your family find out."
Alex was pleasantly surprised and nodded repeatedly. "I'm coming over right now. Don't worry, my family is already asleep."
"I hope you get here quickly. If it's too late, I might fall asleep, but if I don't see you, I might feel regretful."
The girl's affectionate whisper made Alex wish he had wings to fly to her immediately. However, he suppressed his excitement and said gently, "I'll be there very soon. If you're worried about falling asleep, let's stay on the phone."
"Okay, let's stay on the phone. That way, I'll feel like you're always with me. It's just that it might use up a lot of phone credit."
Chen Luoqiu hesitated a bit.
Alex immediately said, "My phone plan is monthly. I have a few hours of free calls. It's a waste if I don't use them."
"Then I'm relieved. Head out now, just put the phone in your pocket." She was overjoyed.
Alex did as he was told, put the phone in his pocket, and immediately got dressed and put on his shoes to head out.
After leaving his room, he was quite cautious, afraid of waking Freya.
But sometimes, what you fear most happens. Just as he passed the bathroom, he heard the sound of a door opening behind him.
He had no choice but to stop and turn around, pretending he had just finished drinking water.
Unexpectedly, Freya was dazed with sleep, and since the lights weren't on, she didn't see him at all. She rubbed her eyes and entered the bathroom.
She switched on the bathroom light and didn't even close the door, walking straight over to sit down.
Alex stood not far from the door, breaking out in a cold sweat.
After rubbing her eyes, Freya yawned. She inadvertently caught a glimpse of someone standing at the door. After yawning, she perked up and quickly looked over, but there was no one outside.
Freya muttered with a bit of frustration, "Is it really necessary to miss him this much even when we live together!"
Alex didn't dare stay. He quickly slipped out of the house. Actually, it wouldn't have been a big deal if Freya found out; the old Alex often stayed out at night. It was mainly that Alex was afraid explaining would take time and delay his meeting with Chen Luoqiu.
No one was visible on the road at midnight, only the occasional passing vehicle.
Alex opened a ride-hailing app on his phone and clicked to call a car. Someone accepted the order within seconds. He checked the map; it was about a kilometer away, so he waited where he was.
With no traffic and a straight road, the car arrived in less than two minutes. Alex got in and then remembered to take out his phone and put it to his ear. "Luoqiu."
"I'm here. I heard the sound of you getting into the car."
"Yeah, I just got in."
"The thought of seeing you soon makes me so excited. What should I do? Am I a shameless girl?"
"No, because I feel the same way."
"You're so sweet. By the way, whose was that woman's voice just now?"
This question caught him off guard. Alex was stunned for a moment before saying simply, "Family."
Chen Luoqiu didn't ask anything else.
They chatted idly along the way. Because there was a driver in the car, Alex didn't dare speak openly, which made him want to see Chen Luoqiu even more.
After about a thirty-minute drive, they arrived at where Chen Luoqiu lived. Alex went downstairs based on his memory. Entering and exiting the building required an access card, and Chen Luoqiu was already waiting there.
As soon as the door opened, the two hugged tightly. The hallway light seemed to be broken. They kissed by feeling, like two lonely hearts drawing close to each other.
Meanwhile, Alex's hands were being bold, and the notification for gaining experience in Grappling Technique kept appearing before his eyes.
After a while, Chen Luoqiu pushed him away and said softly, "People occasionally come back at night. Let's go up."
She took Alex's hand and led him upstairs.
At this time, Alex was very bold, his hand placed on her back, gently comforting her, unable to let go.
Alex forgot how they entered the door. He only felt himself being led into a dark but warm place that gave him a sudden sense of peace. He unhesitatingly hugged the girl beside him.
"Shh, be quiet."
The girl warned him with a bit of worry, but then she had no time to speak.
By the moonlight streaming through the window, Alex saw a bed nearby out of the corner of his eye. He held Chen Luoqiu tight, walked over in a few steps, and laid her down on it.
