Chapter 242: Chapter 161: The Woman Downstairs (Part 2)
"Let’s... let’s rest a bit!"
"I’m exhausted!"
Gao Yuan also stopped climbing. He was truly exhausted; his legs felt like they were filled with lead.
The two of them were now standing in the dark stairwell. Since they were speaking softly, the motion-activated lights didn’t turn on. Only a faint sliver of light from a window above illuminated their silhouettes.
No, wait.
They weren’t *both* standing.
Gao Yuan was indeed standing on the landing, but Ji Sinuan was leaning over the handrail at the turn of the stairs, one foot propped on a step.
In this environment, which wasn’t completely pitch-black, this pose seemed to add a touch of mystery to the space.
The atmosphere suddenly grew a little ambiguous.
Just then, Ji Sinuan’s panting subsided. After that short rest, they had both recovered a good deal of their stamina.
’There are still ten floors to go. We’ll be completely wiped by the time we get home.’
Ji Sinuan didn’t rush to start again. Instead, she tilted her head and looked at Gao Yuan in the darkness. "Are you and your wife... compatible?"
"We are."
Gao Yuan answered subconsciously.
Only after replying did he realize he was talking to a strange woman, and that their current situation was indeed rather suggestive.
"I figured. You have such great stamina,"
"and you’re so big."
Gao Yuan had no response to that.
’Was I just born this way?’
’Or should I say I’m just that good?’
’Neither seemed appropriate.’
Suddenly,
Gao Yuan felt a hand on him. In the darkness, he looked toward Ji Sinuan.
’This woman is something else. So steady, accurate, and ruthless. She grabbed it in one go.’
’If this were a wuxia world, she could probably make a name for herself with a move like that.’
"Aren’t you going to let go?"
Gao Yuan said in a low voice.
Having been taken advantage of by a strange woman, he had no one to complain to, so he could only say that much.
Thankfully, Ji Sinuan didn’t make any other moves.
But before letting go, she gave him two squeezes.
"That’s a little much, you know!"
Gao Yuan still expressed his displeasure symbolically. He wasn’t actually displeased, but a man had to have some standards.
If he didn’t show some teeth, she’d really think he was a pushover.
"Hehe, sorry, Uncle!"
"Here, I’ll let you get me back."
As Gao Yuan heard her say this, one of her hands was already at her waist. He could vaguely see her tug at something.
Then, with that same speed and precision, she grabbed Gao Yuan’s arm, slid her hand down, and took his.
The next moment, Ji Sinuan pressed Gao Yuan’s hand onto a hemisphere.
At that moment,
Gao Yuan could only think that it wasn’t the least bit smooth or tender.
They were both covered in sweat after working out and then climbing all those stairs.
However,
it was certainly warm.
Soon, Gao Yuan pulled his hand back. "Let’s keep climbing!"
Ji Sinuan said nothing more, and the two resumed their climb up the stairs.
Once again, there was no sound.
They moved in silence, the only sounds being their footsteps and their breathing as their stamina drained.
15th floor.
16th floor.
...
As they got closer and closer to home, their pace actually slowed.
It wasn’t that Gao Yuan was intentionally slowing down. Rather, Ji Sinuan, who was walking ahead, had slowed her pace. If he maintained his previous speed, he would be right up against her.
Finally, they reached the landing between the 18th and 19th floors.
In half a flight, Ji Sinuan would be home.
In a flight and a half, Gao Yuan would be home too.
SWISH.
Ji Sinuan suddenly bounded up three steps. Gao Yuan thought she was just excited to be home, so he didn’t pay it much mind.
As he continued up at his normal pace, a dark shadow suddenly fell toward him.
Ji Sinuan was falling!
From the third step up, she fell straight backward onto Gao Yuan.
The entire thing happened without a sound.
Gao Yuan naturally reached out and caught her. In that moment, he wasn’t about to be picky—he just grabbed whatever was soft.
Fuck!
’This woman is seriously bold!’
’Wasn’t she afraid he wouldn’t catch her and she’d just fall down the stairs?’
But Ji Sinuan wasn’t afraid at all.
From the first time she met Gao Yuan in the elevator, she knew he was a good person!
Besides, he had agreed when she invited him to climb the stairs, and their little interaction on the 10th floor had shown her he wasn’t *that* naive.
If it had been any other man, he probably would have snatched his hand away the instant she placed it on her, right?
But,
Gao Yuan gave a squeeze before pulling away.
This made Ji Sinuan absolutely certain that if she fell backward, Gao Yuan would definitely catch her.
As it turned out, she was right. She had won!
Because she was now lying quietly in Gao Yuan’s arms.
No, wait.
*Gao Yuan* was holding *her* quietly. Ji Sinuan was anything but quiet.
Her hands were all over Gao Yuan, completely disregarding her status as a woman. In that moment, it was as if Gao Yuan were the woman, and Ji Sinuan was the lecher, the rogue.
Gao Yuan was stunned for only a moment before he instantly began to counterattack.
It was just his first time encountering a woman like this, which had left him a bit dazed. But that didn’t mean he would just let Ji Sinuan have her way with him.
He was a proud man, after all. He had powerful pecs, good looks plus... length, and charm that lasted.
How could he possibly let Ji Sinuan get the better of him?
In that moment, Gao Yuan discovered the benefits of her going commando.
Open plains, an unobstructed view, a smooth path...
In short,
there were no obstructions. Wherever his large hand went, the "enemy" immediately surrendered.
Just as Gao Yuan was about to take things a step further, a cell phone began to ring in the stairwell.
