He kissed her lips, not deeply, and a low chuckle spilled from his throat, "Are you really that worried about my back injury?"
Chi Huan hurriedly nodded over and over again, "Yes, yes, yes, think about the consequences, don't be impulsive..."
The man stared at her face, slowly smiling, his voice even huskier, "But I'm in pain right now... what should I do?"
She feigned ignorance, "I'll get you yogurt..."
So much time had passed... it couldn't possibly still be spicy.
"It's here that hurts..."
Chi Huan closed her eyes, feeling as if she had been cornered into an inescapable spot in a deep valley.
"I'll help you... just untie the scarf."
......
Afterward, she was careful not to press on his back and quickly got off, ending up snuggled at his side in his embrace.
A while later, her tightly curled toes also relaxed, yet there were still no other sounds in the air.
Unnaturally quiet.
