In the quiet room, Chen Xing tried to pry open Jiang Wan's hands, but he failed. At this moment, Chen Xing's hands seemed to be holding Jiang Wan's hands. The two of them remained in this position, motionless.
The silent atmosphere lingered in this small apartment. Except for the sound of light breathing, the whole world seemed to be still at this moment.
Chen Xing did not speak. Jiang Wan's hands were like screws, holding tightly and could not let go.
The alarm clock on the wall was ticking. Time passed minute by minute. The two of them were silent, but their hearts were beating fast.
Jiang Wan, it's getting late. I should go back. Chen Xing took a deep breath and repeated what he said just now. If it went on like this, he could not guarantee that he could control himself.
"No, I won't let you go. If you leave this time, I may not have a chance next time." Jiang Wan gritted her teeth. She did not dare to let Chen Xing go. Once Chen Xing left, maybe Chen Xing would deliberately avoid her next time. For this moment tonight, Jiang Wan had thought a lot and summoned up great courage. She was afraid that she would not have this courage next time. She was afraid that if she missed this night, she would regret it for the rest of her life. A few years ago, Chen Xing had the chance to have her, but Chen Xing did not do it. This time, she was willing to take the initiative.
"What are you talking about? We have always been friends, haven't we?" Chen Xing said softly.
"Well, we are friends. It is the greatest luck in my life to know you and make friends with you." Jiang Wan said faintly. She was immersed in a special emotional state. "But I don't want to only be friends with you. Chen Xing, I know you have a family. I have also been married. Although my marriage is very unfortunate, as a woman, maybe I should not do this now. Chen Xing, you can scold me for not behaving like a woman and call me a bitch. No matter what you say or look at me, I won't say anything. I just want to be with you. Even if it is only for one night, I will be satisfied. This will be the best memory of my life. Even if you don't want to see me in the future, I will still have a good memory in my heart."
"Chen Xing, stay. Don't go, okay?"
"Jiang Wan, if you do this because you are grateful to me, it is not necessary. If it were someone else, I would also help you. Don't think too much." Chen Xing sighed softly. Jiang Wan's words were like a hammer, pounding into his heart. At this moment, Chen Xing could no longer control his emotions. The words he said were nothing more than the last line of defense in his heart. There was already a fire burning in his heart. "I am not thinking too much.
Chen Xing, do you know that it's precisely because you're such a good person that I'm hopelessly in love with you? I know I'm not qualified to say this. You're so outstanding, so good, while I'm just an uncultured village girl. Saying these words is just wishful thinking, but I just can't control myself. During the New Year, you weren't in Nanzhou, so I felt empty in my heart, as if I was missing something. Although we didn't meet much in the past, at least I knew you were in this city. I could smell your scent here. Even if I didn't see you, I was still very satisfied because we were in the same place. Even if we didn't meet, it was enough for me to know you were here.
Jiang Wan hugged Chen Xing tightly and murmured softly, "Chen Xing, I have waited for this moment for a long time. I know I have completely fallen in love with you. I have been thinking about holding you like this all the time, feeling your heartbeat, feeling your body temperature. I am in my happiest state right now. You say I want to be grateful, but it is not like that. I am unable to extricate myself from falling in love with you. Even if I am not qualified, I am willing to be like a moth, courageously moving forward for the most brilliant moment."
Chen Xing did not say anything more. He used all his strength to pry open Jiang Wan's wrist. Just when Jiang Wan was in despair, thinking that Chen Xing would walk out of the room and that she was only confessing her love on her own, Chen Xing had already turned around. He carried Jiang Wan's body and strode towards the bed.
…
No one knew how much time had passed. When everything was over, Chen Xing hugged Jiang Wan tenderly. His eyes were full of love. Deep down in his heart, he was shocked and confused. Finally, he could not help but ask, "Jiang Wan, why is it your first time?"
There was silence. Jiang Wan did not answer. She just hugged Chen Xing more tightly.
As if feeling Jiang Wan's fragile feelings, Chen Xing also responded to Jiang Wan with body language. He wrapped his arms around Jiang Wan's shoulders tightly.
"Chen Xing, you are my first man, and you will also be my last man." After a long time, Jiang Wan said.
Taking a deep breath, Chen Xing's eyes were a little moist. The woman in front of him made him feel a heavy feeling.
The two of them hugged each other silently. Perhaps feeling that the atmosphere was a little depressing, Chen Xing laughed and said, "Jiang Wan, why do your words sound a little awkward, as if I am about to die?"
"You are so annoying. Don't say such inauspicious words." Jiang Wan patted Chen Xing gently and said in a sweet voice.
"Okay, okay, don't say such things." Chen Xing laughed. A joke made the two of them relax a lot. Jiang Wan's tensed body also visibly relaxed.
Jiang Wan, who was in front of him, was so beautiful. Apart from his wife, she was the second woman who made Chen Xing feel a heavy feeling. She was different from He Li and Chu Rong. She was even more different from Yang Hong. If the latter few people were said to be more lustful than affectionate, then for Jiang Wan, Chen Xing was now more affectionate than lustful. At this moment, the two of them were facing each other with sincerity. There was no lust in Chen Xing's heart, only pity.
"Jiang Wan, let me ask you something. Don't be angry. Your ex-husband never touched you?" Chen Xing looked at Jiang Wan.
Jiang Wan coquettishly rolled her eyes at Chen Xing. She was in her thirties and had just turned from a "girl" to a woman. She seemed to have gained some indescribable beauty. She knew what Chen Xing meant by this question. She smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you before? On the day I married him, he got into a car accident. His lower body was severely injured and both his legs were crippled. That … that place can't be used anymore. Otherwise, why would my family call me a jinx and make sarcastic remarks all day long?"
As Jiang Wan spoke, her voice gradually became lower. The past was the most painful memory of her life. Her husband was infertile and her in-laws blamed it on her. In order to carry on the family line, her in-laws even wanted to violate her. Her husband knew about it but chose to remain silent. If it wasn't for that family that made her completely give up on him, with her character of being soft on the outside but tough on the inside, even if her husband was infertile, as long as her husband and in-laws treated her well, she would be willing to stay in that family for the rest of her life. Even if she became a widow, she would not complain.
"Let's not talk about this. It's all in the past. Let's not think about it and talk about something happy." Seeing that Jiang Wan's mood became low again, Chen Xing hurriedly comforted her with a smile. Jiang Wan's position in his heart was not the same as before. Chen Xing also loved this woman from the bottom of his heart and did not want to see this woman sad again.
"Well, let bygones be bygones. At least I won't have any guilt anymore." Jiang Wan said with a serious face.
As they were talking, Jiang Wan's face turned red again when she saw the red spots on the white sheet. She struggled out of Chen Xing's arms and took out a pair of scissors from the cabinet next to her. She staggered forward to cut off the red spots.
…
The weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly in the sky. Chen Xing was woken up by a commotion. He opened his sleepy eyes but Jiang Wan was no longer by his side. Looking towards the source of the sound, he saw Jiang Wan bustling about in the kitchen.
"Jiang Wan, what are you doing?" Asked Chen Xing.
"I'm warming some soup for you. I'm afraid that you'll be in a hurry to go to work and won't even have breakfast." Jiang Wan stretched her body out of the kitchen and smiled.
"What time is it?" Chen Xing was stunned. He picked up his phone and looked at the time. It was already past eight in the morning. Chen Xing snorted and quickly got up. Usually, he would have gone to the office at this time.
He got out of bed and changed his clothes. When Chen Xing saw that the white sheet was missing a piece, he shook his head and smiled.
He walked to the small kitchen and cuddled with Jiang Wan for a while. Chen Xing looked at the time and was silent for a while. He said, "Jiang Wan, I may not have time to come over these days."
"Chen Xing, do what you need to do. It's okay. When you have time to come over, call me in advance. I'll prepare delicious food for you in advance." Jiang Wan smiled.
Listening to Jiang Wan's considerate words, Chen Xing looked hesitant. He seemed to be thinking about whether to tell Jiang Wan the truth or not. After a while, Chen Xing said, "Jiang Wan, my wife will also come to Nanzhou in the next two days. I have to accompany her after work."
"Is that so?" Jiang Wan smiled indifferently. "It's rare for your wife to come over. Of course, you have to accompany her. Speaking of which, I haven't seen your wife, Mayor Chen. She must be a very outstanding person. Otherwise, she won't be worthy of you."
"You're wrong. It's me who doesn't deserve her. We have a good relationship and we love each other deeply. But look, I say I love her, but I'm still fooling around outside." Chen Xing said with a bitter smile.
"Chen Xing, you men are all like this. No matter how honest a person is, he will still cheat. Eight or nine out of ten men are like this. You are no exception. So, you are not a good man." Jiang Wan looked at Chen Xing. Although she said so, she looked at Chen Xing with an infatuated gaze.
"You know I am not a good man, but you still fly to the fire like a moth." Chen Xing hugged Jiang Wan.
"If you were a good man, I wouldn't have the chance to hug you like this." Jiang Wan said in a daze.
"Jiang Wan, let me ask you seriously. Don't you care that I have a family at all?" Chen Xing's hands stopped moving as he stared at Jiang Wan. If this wasn't Jiang Wan's first time, he could just have another lover. However, Jiang Wan wasn't. This made Chen Xing feel a sense of responsibility. In his heart, Jiang Wan was already differentiated from He Hi, Chu Rong, and the rest.
"Chen Xing, I don't care at all. Really." Jiang Wan said softly. "We are hugging each other like this. In fact, I am the one who seduced you. You have a wife. I am the one who seduced you shamelessly. I am afraid that you will dislike me. How dare I care that you have a family? As long as you don't drive me away, I am willing to stay by your side for the rest of my life. When you are tired and don't want to go home, you can come to me. When you are at home, I will not disturb you."
"You silly woman." Chen Xing looked at Jiang Wan and was moved again.
