Growing Fond of You, Mr Nian

“Oh, really? Is that how it works?” Jiang Yuning looked at the beer; he was in a daze.

“Yes.” Uncle Han nodded his head. “Ms. Nian is quite strong; she’s a cop. Plus, you hardly ever have the courage to say no to her anyway; the alcohol will help you with that.”

Jiang Yuning was wavering. Uncle Han made beer sound like a wonder drug. “But I won’t lose my reason and get ahead of myself…”

“Of course not. This beer has a very low alcohol content.” Uncle Han stuffed the bottle in his hands. “Just have a sip whenever your heart rate quickens.”

“Oh.” Jiang Yuning thought what Uncle Han said made sense. He was just a little embarrassed that Uncle Han knew about these things.

“Right. And this.” Uncle Han shoved a small item into his hand.

Jiang Yuning looked down at it and was shocked, so shocked he flung it across the room as if he was holding onto something scalding hot. He was flustered and embarrassed. “Uncle Han, who do you take me for? I won’t ever do that before marriage.”

“This is just in case.” Uncle Han spoke slowly and said, “If Ms. Nian pounces on you, it doesn’t matter how much alcohol you’ve had, you have no choice but to use this. You wouldn’t want to get her pregnant, would you? This is just a safety precaution, of course. I know that there’s a 99 percent chance you won’t have to use this.”

Uncle Han picked up the condom and stuffed it into Jiang Yuning’s pocket.

Jiang Yuning didn’t refuse this time.

Yes, just in case.

In case Nian Xi pounces on me. What if I have no chance of refusing her?

Jiang Yuning returned to the room with a bottle of beer and a condom; he walked in bravely.

Nian Xi was still in the shower. Jiang Yuning was sitting on the edge of the bed obediently, changing the duvet cover.

Suddenly, the bathroom door slid open, and Nian Xi reached out with her naked arms, beckoning him, “I forgot to grab a towel; can you get one for me?”

Jiang Yuning looked at her slender arm; it seemed to be beckoning him.

He inhaled deeply before grabbing a towel and walking over to her tentatively.

For some reason, every step he took made him feel as if he was Tang Sanzang walking into the trap of a vixen.

When he handed the towel over to Nian Xi, she reached out and grabbed his wrist instead of the cloth.

Before Jiang Yuning could react, she had already pulled him into the bathroom with her.

He was caught by surprise, his head buzzing.

Nian Xi wasn’t dressed, she wasn’t wearing anything.

And I’m about to see her naked body?

He had never seen a lady’s naked body before.

He shut his eyes tightly in terror, his body trembling nervously with both hands in the air; he didn’t want to touch anything accidentally. He was mumbling nervously, “I didn’t see anything, I didn’t see anything, I won’t see or touch anything. Xixi, don’t come near me.”

Nian Xi was laughing hysterically as she watched him panic before him.

One day, she would die of laughter watching him. How could anyone be so pure and innocent?

“No, I want to come close to you.” Nian Xi quickly dived into his embrace, circling her arms around his neck.

Jiang Yuning was panting now; he was about to break down.

Nian Xi is hugging me without any clothes on.

How can I handle that?

“Ningning, touch me,” Nian Xi blew some hot air into his ears and grabbed his hands to place them on her body.

“Xixi, don’t force me.” I should have had some beer before coming in. Uncle Han was right. I need alcohol to have the courage to push her away.

“I’m going to force you. Quick, touch me,” Nian Xi pressed his hands on her body forcefully.

Jiang Yuning’s mind went blank. But wait. Something was wrong: It felt like clothes under his touch, not flesh.
