Chapter 178 - 104: Seductress
But in the end, he held back.
It’s not that he’s particularly noble or insists on being a gentleman; it’s just that he suddenly realized he was still sober, while Liao Xinchun was completely out of it.
After realizing this, Li Younan slapped Liao Xinchun’s butt twice, chanting: "You’re drunk, it’s no good."
It was both to calm her down and to calm himself.
The fundamental issue was that it was impossible to determine if Liao Xinchun was truly willing.
If she regretted it after sobering up, it would make things difficult.
Even though the chances are not high, it could be problematic if it happens, and Li Younan doesn’t want to be troubled by such issues, so he pulled back in time.
First of all, Li Younan had to admit, he’s not a good man in the traditional sense. At least when he’s single, he’s not averse to flings, but definitely not in a state of drunken daze.
But to be honest, Liao Xinchun, who looks so quiet, is unexpectedly passionate and wild at heart.
At this moment, Liao Xinchun sat on the bed, painfully tugging at her hair.
She clearly remembers the scene from yesterday, touching her slightly burning butt, biting her lips and murmuring: "He hit so hard..."
Then she felt slightly lost, touching her cheek, "Am I really so unattractive?"
"But...drunk?"
Liao Xinchun found it somewhat funny... this excuse?
Before graduating from university, she was a well-known strong woman on campus.
Anything she touched, she wanted to do the best, like chess, photography, even sprinting.
Additionally, during university, she participated in debate competitions, speech contests, ran for student council, and she strived to be number one in everything.
However, when she first met Li Younan, he casually mentioned his alma mater, and it instantly made her academic credentials seem lackluster.
The glory of those competitions and student council also lost their edge.
Then that guy casually trampled her pride in photography and chess, it was truly infuriating.
Actually, if he were truly amazing, it wouldn’t be a big deal; but the key was his "Oh no, I’m not that great, just played casually" fake modesty that was really maddening.
And finally, that half bottle of red wine, he snatched it away with an attitude of "I’m considerate of you, I’m a man, I’m tolerant."
"Tsk, who needed you to be a gentleman at that time!"
Liao Xinchun lightly sighed.
By now the alcohol had long faded, though her head still felt a bit dizzy.
She got out of bed, freshened up, and looked at herself in the mirror.
Although she wasn’t in great shape at the moment, her hair was messy, but just really pretty.
In those years playing the strong woman role at school, from primary school all the way to university, no boys dared to pursue her actively; they were often intimidated by her aura... really too lame.
Finally meeting someone like this... no wait, why say finally?
Liao Xinchun was dazed, gulping down the water in the cup, only then realizing there were still bubbles in her mouth, she had swallowed most of it, gagged, stuck out her tongue, and made a retching sound.
Gently sighed.
Finally got herself together.
Reaching the door, she again thought of last night’s scene—kicking the door shut with one foot, Li Younan’s face showing a trace of astonishment, then pouncing fiercely...
Her cheeks flushed suddenly, "Did that guy think I was a... slut?"
Then she furrowed her brows.
Why think so much? Anyway, once off the ship, nobody knows each other.
Her gaze became resolute.
Nothing to be ashamed of, I am just a woman with desires wanting to sleep with that guy! Nothing shameful about that, why can only men think this way?
Isn’t it now... gender equality?
Desires and the body, should be controlled by oneself.
...
When Li Younan saw Liao Xinchun again, her expression was still that quiet demeanor, calmly greeting Li Younan.
At that moment, her grandfather and Elder Zhou also came out of the room.
The guides were organizing people to go ashore to watch the performance.
This show was paid, tickets were 290 yuan, you could choose to sign up or stay quietly on the boat.
Because their boat arrived early, they could also wander around nearby.
Li Younan had already researched online, and netizens said this performance was quite impressive, worth watching.
Li Younan felt that the 290 yuan ticket was worth experiencing, so he brought his sports camera and phone, ready to shoot and enjoy.
Liao Xinchun had somewhat similar thoughts.
To Li Younan’s surprise, logically speaking, yesterday’s incident should have been rather awkward, but Liao Xinchun seemed to have completely forgotten about what happened yesterday.
She not only didn’t show any sign of avoidance but also actively approached Li Younan asking if he would like to watch the show.
After getting an affirmative answer, Liao Xinchun said: "That’s nice, let’s go together."
The performance was right by the Yangtze River, the mountains serving as a natural backdrop.
Li Younan and Liao Xinchun with a few others sat close, waiting for the show to begin.
When it was completely dark, the lights suddenly hit several huge stone pillars, carved with figures like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, quite imposing.
As the music started, hoofbeats approached from afar, an actor dressed as Guan Yu rode out on a horse, wielding a large knife that looked really heavy.
