Chapter 268: Do You Know How Much It Hurts, Hurts, Hurts, Hurts...?
Pain, mixed with the dizzy feeling from alcohol.
Especially when Xia Changyu, at the very end, completely shattered Lin Yibai's willpower. Her mind went blank, and she passed out.
Lin Yibai didn’t care anymore. She thought, ‘Whatever... I’m fainting, and that’s that.’
Strangely, Xia Changyu’s expression was the one that looked shocked and scared now. His face showed all kinds of emotions.
It was his first time... and he had messed it up?
“I... I, I...” He really wanted to slap himself and say, “Damn it, I’m such an idiot!”
His body told him he could definitely keep going, but the situation didn’t allow it anymore. He couldn’t keep being the “bad guy.”
Xia Changyu called softly, “Bai... Baiyi?”
The girl… Well, actually, she could no longer be called a girl in the usual sense, she had really passed out, with no reaction at all.
So... what should he do now?
With his personality and conscience, facing a situation like this, there’s no way he would keep going like some heartless fool.
So... this is where it ends?
Anyway, there’s always next time.
Compared to his own desires, Xia Changyu now cared more about his girlfriend's condition.
He quickly backed away. Only now did he truly realize just how amazing her body was.
The first time he found "hidden paradise", getting inside already required all his wit and strength. Now, even walking along the "narrow path" was a difficult task.
Finally—
Pop.
Xia Changyu sat up from the bed.
He thought to himself, “What should I do now?”
Asking strangers online about this would clearly be stupid, so he went to the bathroom to get a damp towel.
He used it to wipe the sweat off his girlfriend, especially around the torn and sore areas. He made sure to clean those carefully.
Huff... huff...
Taking care of someone who passed out was really exhausting, but at least things were now under control.
Xia Changyu went back to the bathroom. He wanted to rinse the towel. But as the hot water soaked it, he saw faint traces of blood blending into the water.
And then, he smiled.
Even though people often say online that "the first time doesn’t matter", that those are just outdated ideas, and anyone who cares is old-fashioned...
But in truth, nothing needed to be said. Everything was already clear.
Xia Changyu folded up the blood-stained white towel and kept it. It was an important memory for him.
Looking at Lin Yibai, his eyes grew even gentler.
He whispered, “She is now, and forever will be, my woman. Really... I have to work even harder now, earn more money for her, and treat her even better.”
He walked over and opened her wardrobe, pulled out a light blanket, then covered the girl’s body with it, then gently picked her up in a princess-carry style and placed her on the sofa.
After that, he changed all the bedsheets. Only when everything was clean did he finally wipe the sweat off his forehead.
Now the bed was tidy again. He carried the girl again and laid her down on the bed.
It was just past midnight.
After doing all that, Xia Changyu finally sat down and relaxed. And then, all kinds of feelings rose in his heart.
It felt like he had suddenly... grown up.
I'm no longer that clueless college kid anymore. Now, I'm someone who has a person I want to take care of, someone I want to work hard for. I’ve become a man with goals, motivation, and responsibility.
"Buzzz~~~"
The old air conditioner in the apartment made a loud buzzing sound.
Xia Changyu frowned. He really wished he could take Lin Yibai away from this small place right now.
But the plan to move her somewhere better would have to wait until he could convince her.
Right now, the most important thing was the warm air blowing out of the AC, which felt very uncomfortable.
The already dry winter air was made even drier, and after just a little bit of breathing, his nose felt sore and dry.
Xia Changyu grumbled, “But if I turn off the AC, that thin blanket she’s using won’t keep her warm at all. And it’s so late now, what store would still be open to buy a new one? It’s not like there’s a 24-hour convenience store...”
Wait, convenience store?
Maybe not a good bedding store, but a blanket or sheet that’s just okay should still be available.
With that thought, Xia Changyu stood up right away, grabbed his keys, and rushed out. Even though the apartment was on the outskirts of the city center, he had a car, so why worry?
“Bang!” As the door shut behind him, the person on the bed slowly opened her eyes.
Actually, she had already woken up a while ago. Lin Yibai really had fainted earlier, because the shock was too much and her mind just went blank. But she came back to her senses not long after.
Still, because the situation was way too embarrassing, she didn’t dare face the man who had just taken her virginity.
Seriously... she was so embarrassed!
Only after Xia Changyu left did she show her painful face and whisper while wincing.
“I knew he wasn’t a good guy! Took everything and just ran away? Hmph! I see his true colors now! Agh... ahhhhhh—”
Pain, pain, pain! It’s killing me!
Even though she had chosen to “double the pleasure,” there really wasn’t any pleasure at all for the first time.
It felt like someone had ripped a scab off a healing wound.
There wasn’t even time to feel happy, and that guy? He was already done!?
“Stupid boyfriend~”
“Ow~”
“Ah, ahh~”
“One day... I’ll make him pay! Ahhh—ow ow ow! Damn it, I wanna kill him! Ugh! AHHH!”
Lin Yibai slowly sat up from the bed. She stepped on the floor with one foot, and the pain almost made her cry.
Ugh... how is she supposed to live like this?
She honestly didn’t want to get out of bed. But she had no choice, her bedsheets were dirty. If they weren’t washed, the smell and stains would be hard to remove.
And not just regular dirty… in every sense of the word, it needed to be washed.
She sat on the bed for a long time, then moved to the chair and sat there for a few minutes to rest, finally staggering slowly toward the bathroom.
Turn on the bathroom heater.
Only then did she sigh and say, “Whatever, I’ll just wash this first.”
At the bathroom door, she took off her blanket that was covering her body and tossed it on the sofa…
And—
“Click click~”
“Beep beep beep beep~”
First the sound of keys. Then the sound of the door unlocking.
And then, a familiar figure walked in through the door, holding several bags full of sheets and blankets.
And then… their eyes met.
Especially under the bright light. Lin Yibai’s naked body was clearly visible to Xia Changyu. One hand was holding her clothes, the other holding the door frame for balance.
The view was faint, but tempting. Extremely tempting.
Xia Changyu suddenly felt a heat rise in his nose.
He gently wiped it and said, “Blood? I’m... I’m getting a nosebleed again? Why? I already did that, why am I still getting nosebleeds?”
Seriously, how does that even make sense!?
