Hancheng: There is a door between me and the future

Chapter 129 "What are you waiting for?" "I'm waiting for you to help me." (Seeking monthly votes and subscriptions)

Mid-level villa.

Under the hot spring pool in the backyard.

As the baby dragon made that light, smiling bite, it was like a fuse igniting the undercurrents beneath the surface of the pool.

Lin Xiuyuan seemed frozen in place, his eyes fixed on her so close to his, his Adam's apple bobbing, his breathing becoming rapid involuntarily.

The little dragon seemed to see through him completely, still maintaining that lazy posture, staring at Lin Xiuyuan with a hint of mockery in his eyes, as if waiting for him to speak first, or as if tacitly approving his approach.

"You..." Lin Xiuyuan's voice was hoarse, but he didn't continue speaking for a long time.

Because the other person suddenly raised their leg, amidst the soft sound of water, those wet, long legs inadvertently straddled the outside of his knees, and the whole person pressed closer, with their hands on his shoulders, their eyes almost dripping with tears.

Breathing so close to my ear, carrying the warmth of spring water and the fragrance of my skin, almost made me dizzy.

"You haven't agreed to me yet," the little dragon chuckled softly. "Today, I'm the boss, right?"

The phrase "I'm the greatest" sounded to Lin Xiuyuan like a lock on a contract, snapping shut on him.

Before his eyes swayed the fabric clinging to her chest, damp and shimmering; in his ears, he heard the almost coquettish whispers of the little dragon cub; and beneath his hand, he felt the delicate touch of her calf slowly sliding against his side.

Then Lin Xiuyuan finally raised his hand and supported the dragon cub's waist.

But all they did was support him.

His movements were restrained, but his eyes could no longer be faked.

He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "If you keep playing like this and something really happens, I won't be responsible."

"Oh?" The little dragon blinked and moved even closer, its nose almost brushing against him. "I never said you had to take responsibility, Xiu Yuan."

As soon as she finished speaking, she moved her waist slightly, seemingly unintentionally, yet also deliberately. The water rippled and swayed, causing the two shadows to intertwine and become indistinguishable from each other.

As soon as that whispered remark fell, Lin Xiuyuan's previously tense nerves suddenly snapped, as if some hidden fuse had been ignited.

The next second, he suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the slender waist in front of him. His movements were swift and direct, like a wild beast that had been suppressed for too long and finally erupted. He pulled her into his arms in an instant.

"Ah~"

With a soft cry, the little dragon involuntarily leaned onto his shoulder, even staggering and losing its balance.

The pool water rippled gently, and concentric circles of water surged outwards, crashing against the pool walls and making a series of splashing sounds.

To her surprise, she looked up, about to say something, when she met Lin Xiuyuan's eyes, which had suddenly become deep and intense.

No more dodging, no more restraint.

That was a look that left no room for doubt.

"Xiuyuan, you..."

"Ji-yeon, didn't you say you were the boss today?"

Lin Xiuyuan's voice was low and hoarse, his hand still tightly gripping her waist, his gaze slowly moving downwards.

His gaze swept over the thin strap clinging to her chest with a scrutinizing air before slowly returning to her face. "But I want you to confirm it again, confirm that you are! The! Biggest!?"

This statement carries a somewhat ambiguous implication, as if it has ignited something.

The little dragon paused for a moment, then slowly curved his lips into a smile, his eyes shining with an astonishing light.

She seemed surprised that Lin Xiuyuan would suddenly take the initiative, but... she liked proactive guys.

But before she could respond, Lin Xiuyuan no longer gave her a chance to think.

Suddenly, with a forceful pull, he pressed the little dragon back into his arms, his movements swift and even carrying an almost domineering air.

The water surface churned as the two moved, and the lights by the pool reflected in the ripples, turning into a scattering of colorful gold fragments, like clusters of sparks exploding in the night.

"Well!"

The little dragon instinctively gasped, her whole body forced against his, her soft breasts inevitably pressed tightly against his chest without any gap, making her heart race instantly.

She looked up, and a look of astonishment instantly appeared in her eyes.

Lin Xiuyuan's aura has changed.

He's no longer that shy, stuttering, and gaze-avoiding puppy.

His eyes were deep and his brow bone lines appeared even sharper under the mist and light, like a golden cub that had suddenly broken free of its restraints and finally revealed its wildness in control.

"Scared?" Lin Xiuyuan looked down at the little dragon cub, a slight smirk playing on his lips. "What, scared to play anymore?"

This provocative remark snapped the little dragon out of its brief daze.

Then, she raised an eyebrow, but her breathing became a few degrees more rapid than before.

The next second, she, who had been pressed into Lin Xiuyuan's arms, suddenly moved.

Instead of retreating, she twisted her body and straddled Lin Xiuyuan, her movements so swift they seemed almost impossible to perform in the water.

She stirred the warm water into tiny ripples, her knees pressed against his sides, her hands on his shoulders, leaning slightly forward, her breath almost touching his.

"Who said I'm too scared to play?"

The little dragon chuckled softly, his voice low and husky with a hint of alluring raspiness, and he pursed his lips slightly, "I just didn't expect that Xiu Yuan had such a trick up his sleeve."

As she spoke, she ran a finger down his chest, tracing the muscle lines that were faintly visible beneath the water's surface.

"So puppies can bite too?"

The fingertip paused, landing on the most sensitive spot on his abdomen, and gently pressed it.

Lin Xiuyuan gasped, his Adam's apple bobbing, but he didn't speak. He simply tightened his grip on her waist with one hand, while the other hand moved up her thigh, sliding inch by inch down to her knee.

"Am I a male model? How did I become a cute puppy?"

"No, I misspoke. Qri unnie was right. You really are a wolf cub."

As their eyes met, steam rose, as if the air itself had thinned.

The pool water lapped against their intertwined bodies, the ripples spreading outwards and crashing against the walls of the hot spring, creating a series of soft "tinkling" sounds, like the whispers of the night.

The night breeze gently swept across the distant mountains and forests, and a few leaves fell silently into the pond.

Then it slowly rotated, circling close to the water's surface, as if being pulled along by a rhythm, gradually slipping out of control.

In the pool, Lin Xiuyuan's fingers also gripped the waist of the little dragon tightly, as if he wanted to hold her firmly in his arms.

The other person's breathing became more and more rapid, and the rise and fall of their chest almost resonated with the ripples on the water's surface.

The surrounding scenery was silent, yet it held an indescribable tenderness.

The shadows of the two people overlapped in the pool, appearing and disappearing intermittently.

The air suddenly became still, and the steam from the hot spring pool drifted gently in the breeze, blurring everything.

At that moment, almost without warning, the dragon cub suddenly lowered its head, and a touch of lips descended upon it.

With a hint of provocation, gentle yet powerful, it was like a test, or perhaps a declaration.

Lin Xiuyuan did not back down. Instead, he grabbed the back of her head and forced her to get even closer.

With this counterattack, the kiss became more urgent, filled with an irrepressible passion.

Beside the hot spring pool, the shadows of the surrounding trees swayed in the night breeze, the slight ripples creating soft sounds.

A few glimmers of light floated on the water's surface, like stars swimming in the pool.

As the two intensified their movements, the pool water became even more turbid, rippling and undulating, as if responding to every touch between them.

The bamboo shadows swayed by the pond, a gentle breeze carried a faint fragrance, but it couldn't mask the increasingly lively atmosphere.

Lin Xiuyuan's heartbeat seemed to accelerate with the heat of the hot spring, and all his senses toward her were constantly being aroused, as if the pool water was slowly swallowing everything, leaving only the two of them, clinging tightly to each other.

Their breathing gradually became rapid, and the hot spring water and the night created an indescribable atmosphere of tension.

Finally, they separated and sat facing each other.

They didn't move, just watched each other silently.

"What are you waiting for?"

The little dragon smiled softly, its eyes like water.

Lin Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his voice low and husky, "I'm waiting for you to help me."

The next second, the little dragon smiled, said nothing, and slowly lowered its head.

A night breeze rustles the water, and the soft whispers are hidden in the night and the hot spring, leaving only the sound of the wind and the water to savor.

The wind chimes in the distance are still ringing softly, as if keeping someone's secret, or as if applauding and cheering for someone.

The scenery began to blur, and the sounds of the mountains and forests seemed to intertwine with their panting, creating a rhythmic echo, as if the air itself was gradually rising in temperature.

The water rippled slightly, and the night enveloped the hot spring pool, the rising steam making everything appear hazy and indistinct.

Everything around them began to blur, with only their breath and the ripples in the water weaving together in the silent night to create the most real existence.

……

……

Late at night, on a busy street in downtown Seoul.

A car is driving at a steady speed on a brightly lit street. Outside the window, neon lights are flashing and people are bustling about.

Inside the carriage, however, the scene was quite different. A recording of an audiobook was playing softly from Li Juli's phone in the passenger seat:
"The male protagonist's breathing gradually became rapid, and he tightly gripped the female protagonist's waist, feeling every slight tremor of her body."

The female lead, who was being held, no longer hid and instead moved even closer to the male lead.

The male lead, somewhat out of control due to the female lead's little action, unconsciously increased the force of his grip, pulling her even tighter.

He almost completely surrounded the other person's small body, and the sense of urgency made their breathing become heavier and heavier.

......"

Ham Eun-jung, who was driving, felt a slight twitch on her forehead. Just a second before he was about to continue, she couldn't help but speak up, "That's enough, unnie. You've been listening to this the whole way."

After saying this, Lee Juri locked the screen with a lingering sense of satisfaction, sighing as if her sweet dream had been interrupted. "Sigh, I'm so curious if Jiyeon has eaten her cake yet. Why didn't I think of a birthday cake like Xiuyuan's before? Judging from the candles, her figure is quite impressive."

"Candles?" Ham Eun-jung, gripping the steering wheel, nearly slipped. Her pupils contracted as if she had heard an unbelievable keyword. "Ah~ Unnie!"

"Hahaha, okay, okay, I won't say anymore, I won't say anymore."

Lee Qri laughed so hard she almost fell over, casually leaning against the car window as she watched the unfamiliar faces passing by outside. Suddenly, she sighed softly, "Eunjung, do you think Jiyeon would have gone this crazy if she hadn't gone through this marriage?"

The atmosphere inside the car suddenly became quiet.

Ham Eun-jung didn't speak, her grip on the steering wheel tightened slightly, and her eyes were somewhat gloomy.

But Lee Juri, who had been on the same team for many years, could tell that her silence was the answer. She just smiled and said, "But it's good. At least we didn't dwell on the failure. Being able to get out of it in time is already very impressive."

But as they talked, her tone inexplicably lowered, and she asked again, "Eun-jung, do you think if we could go back to the way things were before, would we still be like this?"

The car left the main road and slowly turned into a quiet community alley.

At this moment, Ham Eun-jung finally spoke, her tone calm but somewhat helpless, "Unnie, what's wrong with you today? You always said you wanted to look forward, so why are you suddenly getting sentimental and reminiscing about the past?"

Lee Juri, in the passenger seat, slowly lowered the car window, feeling the evening breeze blowing through her long hair.

"Maybe it was seeing Xiu Yuan's youthful and invincible body today that suddenly made me feel sentimental. You know... if I were still in my early twenties, I would definitely have a passionate romance with him."

“Wrong,” Ham Eun-jung answered decisively. “If you were twenty, you would be rushing around with us, doing promotional work, running errands, and taking on endorsements. You wouldn’t even have time for dating.”

Beside her, Lee Qri, who had just gotten into the mood, suddenly laughed dejectedly, "Eunjung, couldn't you have just left it at that? Couldn't you have let me daydream for a couple more seconds? I was just starting to get into it."

"Sorry, I interrupted your fantasy, unnie."

Ham Eun-jung couldn't help but chuckle, glancing at her sideways before asking with a smile, "By the way, what gift did you give Ji-yeon today?"

Upon hearing this question, Lee Qri smiled mysteriously, but instead of answering first, she asked Ham Eun-jung, "You tell me first, what did you give her?"

“Sunglasses,” Ham Eun-jung answered succinctly. “Her last pair of sunglasses broke, so I just picked out a limited edition pair for her.”

“Not bad, not bad, very practical.” Li Juli nodded, then slowly said, “I gave her a ‘takeoff device’.”

The answer she heard left Ham Eun-jung a little confused, yet she seemed to understand it.

A moment later, her eyes widened. "Wait a minute, unnie, you gave Jiyeon that kind of thing?"

"Why not? This kind of gift is the most thoughtful and useful. I also gave her a set of sexy lace lingerie as a bonus."

Faced with Ham Eun-jung's shock, Lee Qri remained calm. She even felt that she hadn't given enough, as she had plenty in her own wardrobe and would give more next time.

Ham Eun-jung was genuinely at a loss for words when faced with Lee Qri's statement.

This isn't thoughtfulness, it's practically plastered on their face!

……

"Let's go inside, it's getting windy."

"Go upstairs."

A few minutes later.

"Huh? This is it?"

"This was a gift from Unnie. Do you want to use it? I can."

"use."

……

……

The next day.

The morning sunlight streamed into the room through the gaps in the sheer curtains, bathing the entire master bedroom in a soft golden glow.

Lin Xiuyuan slowly opened his eyes, and what came into view was the snow-white ceiling and the light and shadow swaying between the curtains.

He paused for a few seconds before realizing that this was not the familiar villa in the Jiangnan District.

Lying on the master bedroom bed on the second floor of the villa on the hillside where he had stayed the night before, Lin Xiuyuan felt the lingering warmth of the previous night on his body. His muscles were slightly sore, but his heartbeat was calmer and more peaceful than ever before.

The person next to her stirred slightly at that moment.

He turned his head and saw the big dragon cub nestled in his arms.

Her hair was a little messy, and her cheeks were flushed with a faint blush, as if she had just been kissed by the sun.

The silk quilt barely covered their most intimate parts, but her shoulders were exposed, her fair skin pressed against the slightly wrinkled sheets, and the sticker tattoos on her arms, cute and childlike little patterns, added a touch of languor and sexiness at this moment.

Seemingly sensing Lin Xiuyuan's gaze, the little dragon slowly opened its eyes, its gaze still carrying a lingering sleepiness.

She stared at him for a while before letting out a lazy smile.

Good morning... Xiu Yuan.

Her voice was a little hoarse, like a kitten that had just woken up.

Lin Xiuyuan's Adam's apple bobbed slightly. He raised his hand to tuck a strand of hair that had fallen beside her face behind her ear and whispered, "Good morning, you last night..."

Before she could finish speaking, a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips. She glanced at the messy clothes and traces left from last night, her tone tinged with helplessness, "This is too crazy."

"It's not like you've let go of me."

The little dragon retorted and lightly tapped his chest with his finger.

The air was filled with the faint scent of sandalwood and hot springs, mixed with the subtle warmth and intimate fragrance between the two, which seemed especially soft in the morning light.

Lin Xiuyuan didn't reply, but subconsciously hugged her tighter.

The little dragon didn't resist; instead, it rubbed against his chest and closed its eyes, as if it were stealing a moment of lazy morning time.

After a while, he gently rubbed her left shoulder, his gaze naturally falling on the tattooed letters.

"My parents are my heart and soul."

He read it aloud in a soft voice, his tone gentle yet inquiring.

The little dragon slowly opened its eyes and looked at him, a smile on its lips. "What? Do you think I have too many tattoos?"

Shaking his head, Lin Xiuyuan's eyes showed no disgust or doubt, only curiosity and a thirst for knowledge. "I'm just curious about the meaning of each tattoo, like this one, which is about my parents."

She smiled, about to say something, when she suddenly noticed his large hand was restless, quietly reaching towards a certain place.

So she immediately grabbed his hand and gave him a coquettish glare.

"Only one tattoo is allowed at a time. The next one... can wait until next time."

Lin Xiuyuan's eyes immediately lit up.

He understood the implication in her words, of course.

Seeing his delighted expression, the little dragon cub became interested and blinked, asking, "Xiuyuan, tell me, what does it feel like to be able to get close to your idol?"

"You asked that many times last night," Lin Xiuyuan said, somewhat amused.

"But you never replied to me, you just kept arguing with me."

"Isn't this a response?"

Da Longzai's mind went blank for a moment, then he slapped him with a wry smile, before leaning down to reach for his firm abs and giving them a good rub. "Your body is really like a machine, once you're wound up, it just won't stop, right?"

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Xiuyuan suddenly hugged her, a mischievous smile on his lips, and whispered in her ear, "Zhiyan, you just wound me up again."

"Oh, I didn't."

"Abs are the answer, don't you know you can't just touch them randomly?"

"I don't want to, I want to get up."

The next second, several clear birdsongs came from downstairs.

The sunlight gently spilled into the room, and the curtains swayed softly in the breeze, casting a soft shadow.

Inside the bedroom, the once peaceful morning was gradually broken by the intertwined scents of the two.

Their breaths mingled, their heartbeats resonated, and their intertwined sounds echoed in the room, like a morning murmur that belonged only to them.
