At this moment, Li Chen's breath stopped.
The sight of a perfectly round and firm rear filled his vision.
A rich, fragrant scent hit him immediately, laden with a strong feminine hormone aroma.
At last, he was going to see the enchanting sister-in-law's secret territory once again.
Last night in the bathroom, because they were standing, he only vaguely saw an outline; this time, he determined to feast his eyes properly.
"Li Chen, what are you doing..."
"I'm your sister-in-law, how could you do this?"
A scream rang out.
Shen Mengxue, who'd been lying prone, suddenly rose, her face a mix of panic and shyness.
She enjoyed that floating, heavenly sensation as if soaring into the clouds, but she couldn't give in; this was her sister-in-law's boyfriend. If she crossed that line, how could she face Yueyue?
"Sister-in-law, sorry... I'm so sorry, you're just too beautiful; I couldn't help myself." Li Chen sat there kneeling, a look of panic on his face.
Seeing Li Chen's embarrassed state, Shen Mengxue's anger dissipated by more than half.
Just as she was about to get up, she caught sight of a certain large tent pitched in Li Chen's lower body out of the corner of her eye, and her beautiful eyes froze.
"Don't you have a girlfriend? How can you be so reckless?"
"Yueyue says we have to wait until after we're married before we can touch each other, and I'm so frustrated that I lost my head just now. Please don't be mad, sister-in-law... I made a mistake," Li Chen said, feeling still somewhat uneasy inside.
After all, it was different from last night; last night he only peeked, but today, he went straight for the touch.
Lying on her side, propping her head with her right hand, Shen Mengxue's mind conjured the image of Han Yue doing something with her hand to Li Chen.
"So, have you two not done it yet? Are you still a virgin?"
"Yeah!" Li Chen nodded, his face turning red.
Having a girlfriend but having never touched her, he found it somewhat embarrassing himself.
Shen Mengxue's eyes lit up as if she had discovered a new world, the anger in her eyes dissipating in that instant.
"It's natural for a young man to be virile; I can understand that. Just this once I won't blame you. But you can't be this reckless again."
She lay on her side, stealing glances at Li Chen's lower body, her heart tingling with an indescribable urge.
Yet, her inner sense of shame cautioned her, telling herself she absolutely couldn't take that step.
"Sister-in-law, should I keep pressing?" Li Chen relaxed when he saw Shen Mengxue wasn't angry anymore, and he looked at the jade body sprawled in front of him as he asked.
"No need, I feel a lot better now." Shen Mengxue shook her head.
After Li Chen's handling, her lower body was completely soaked, sticky and uncomfortable, and she needed to wash up first.
Just as she sat up from the yoga mat, about to get up, she suddenly furrowed her brows and pressed down on the area just below her exposed belly button in apparent pain.
"Sister-in-law, what's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?" Li Chen quickly asked.
"The old problem, I've taken lots of medicine, but it's no better. It's all because of you..." Shen Mengxue gave Li Chen an annoyed glance.
Her seductive smile mixed with a bit of petulance was unbearable for Li Chen.
Because of himself? Li Chen was a bit stunned.
In a flash, he thought of the possibility that some women might experience abdominal pain after sex or orgasm.
Could his sister-in-law be in that situation?
"Sister-in-law, I studied gynecology at med school; let me take a look!" Li Chen moved closer, with concern.
"But... how can that be?" Shen Mengxue looked up, her eyes widening.
"Sister-in-law, I'm worried about you!"
Gazing at that flat abdomen, and more so at the wet patch that had formed at the triangle below, Li Chen couldn't take his eyes off it. He nervously said, "We can't delay this kind of illness; if it gets serious, it not only affects fertility, but it might also require an operation, affecting the rest of your life."
"Ah? Really?"
Shen Mengxue was taken aback, evidently alarmed by Li Chen's words.
"Why would I lie to you, sister-in-law? In both traditional Chinese medicine and Western medicine, this is no small matter." Li Chen continued to stoke the fire.
"So how are you going to examine it? You're not going to have to touch it, are you?" Shen Mengxue's face flushed with embarrassment.
The spot was less than an inch away from her most private area.
Although Li Chen had already touched it from behind earlier, that was a young man's reckless act, unlike her taking the initiative, which was a different matter entirely.
"Yeah! This is a necessary step for the diagnosis. I've learned it really well; just a touch can give a good idea of what's going on." Li Chen nodded vehemently.
"Alright then!" Shen Mengxue was both anxious and embarrassed but agreed out of helplessness.
Saying that, she laid down on the yoga mat, turned her head to the side, and dared not look at Li Chen.
"Sister-in-law, I can't do a proper check through the pants; you have to take them off to get a thorough examination and avoid misdiagnosis," Li Chen said even more boldly.
"This... this isn't right; never mind, I won't have it checked." Shen Mengxue turned her head back, her beautiful eyes glaring at Li Chen, full of caution and suspicion.
"Sister-in-law, I'm not lying to you. You can't neglect this condition. You may not use me, go to a hospital for a check-up, but I can assure you, there's no doctor in the hospital as proficient in both Chinese and Western medicine as I am. I can cure you using the most effective means," Li Chen said, slightly nervous, but plucking up the courage.
The assurance in his expression eased Shen Mengxue's doubts.
She had heard that Li Chen was a top student from the medical college and was about to join the provincial hospital upon graduation.
"Alright then, but you can't just touch anywhere, you know? Otherwise, I'll be angry," she said, biting her red lips, hesitating for a while, extremely bashful.
Li Chen was thrilled inside, the excitement almost too much to contain.
She had agreed, and now he could legitimately see that lush territory.
There was nothing in his way now!
