The gathering eventually quieted down and came to a close.
Su Ziyuan and Zhao Yuanqiu helped the completely drunk Wang Xiao back to the dormitory.
Gu Yu, on the other hand, could still stand. He let the cool night breeze blow for a while and felt much better.
He excused himself to his roommates, saying he wanted to walk a bit more alone.
As if by coincidence, Luo Ming also let her roommates go back first and accompanied Gu Yu as they strolled along the neon-lit streets.
Linying also had a large river that cut through the city, its surface dark and calm.
The two walked along the riverbank, the dim streetlights casting shadows on their heavy footsteps.
Gu Yu didn’t want to wait any longer.
The questions pressing on his mind urgently needed answers.
“How did you end up in Linying?”
Luo Ming clasped her hands behind her back and spoke calmly, with a hint of relief.
“I didn’t do well. My test scores were lower than I expected. As for you, congratulations on getting into your dream school.”
“How could you fail? You were clearly…” Gu Yu suddenly felt the alcohol rush back and coughed a few times as he leaned against a lamppost.
Luo Ming blinked and gently rubbed the boy’s thin back.
“It’s because I drank quite a bit too, Gu Yu. Am I a bad girl now?”
“No, I wanted to drink. Luo Ming… you’ve always been a good girl.”
“Then why did you back off? I thought you preferred bad girls.”
Gu Yu was silent for a long time, steadying himself against the lamppost.
He was speechless, looking at the girl’s dreamlike, beautiful face, as if he had returned to the days when she used to tease him as his desk-mate.
Luo Ming took a bottle of green tea from her pocket and handed it to Gu Yu.
“Drink some tea first to sober up. The way you look, it wouldn’t be strange if you collapsed on the road at any moment.”
“Thanks.”
Gu Yu took it and drank a couple of sips. The cool, refreshing tea washed away the alcohol that had spread through his nerves, and he became much clearer.
“I’m in the medical school. What about you?” “What major did you apply for?”
“I applied for Computer Science.” “I’m in the medical school. What about you?”
Gu Yu didn’t know how to answer and mumbled a vague “Huh.”
“That’s so like you, rigid and dull.”
“Linying is actually pretty good. I really like the environment here.”
“Do you regret it?”
“Of course I do. If I could, I would want to go to a better university. But Linying… is much better than I imagined.”
As night deepened, their conversation gradually stopped.
Beneath the calm surface of the river, undercurrents surged.
The dim yellow light of the streetlamps seemed about to be swallowed by the darkness.
The temperature grew colder.
The school gate appeared in the distance under the lights. Gu Yu felt drowsiness rising in his mind and yawned as he said, “I’ll head back now. It’s already late. You should rest early too.”
“Don’t you want to walk a bit more?”
“No, I have military training tomorrow. Good night.”
“Alright, good night.”
Gu Yu stumbled forward. Suddenly, his drowsiness intensified. His legs went weak, and he couldn’t stand straight. He collapsed into Luo Ming’s arms behind him.
His consciousness blurred instantly, and he fell into a deep, heavy sleep.
“Mm…” The boy could no longer speak clearly, letting out a murmuring sound like a dream.
“Then I’ll take you to sleep, okay?”
“Mm… thank… thank you, Luo Ming.”
The night wind howled, madly battering the closed glass windows.
Luo Ming laid the boy down on the bed, then leaned over and unabashedly kissed his lips.
This was a cheap roadside motel, often used by nearby university students for their nightly trysts.
The woman at the front desk had long since grown used to it, but it was rare to see a girl checking in with an unconscious boy.
Luo Ming had come prepared: her ID card, sleeping pills, and… condoms.
The plan had formed in her mind the moment she saw that photo. Two months of suffering and cold resentment could no longer be suppressed.
She had to admit she was indeed bad, very bad, using such methods to torment him, lure him, control him. Yet she felt no guilt, because after all… he had been disobedient.
The boy’s vulnerable sleeping face nearly burned her reason to ashes.
Three years of restraint could finally be unleashed without restraint. This day had come far too late.
Luo Ming savored the fragrance of this body. The long-coveted sweetness effortlessly destroyed her rationality, allowing her to touch the flesh she could not touch in daily life without restraint.
The boy was already asleep, his consciousness hazy. She could hear his instinctive murmurs, as if inviting Luo Ming to swallow and bite.
“Gu Yu, do you like me?” Luo Ming asked in a voice dripping with seduction, though she already knew the answer.
The sleeping boy gave no answer.
“I love you, Gu Yu. I love you so much. But you were too disobedient. I had to give you a little punishment… do you want… to be eaten by me?”
The boy slept deeply, still unresponsive.
A light laugh brushed past the boy’s ear. Luo Ming walked into the bathroom, taking off her clothes piece by piece, revealing her snow-white, delicate skin until she was completely nude. Her beautiful body was displayed before the mirror.
The shower head sprayed warm water, touching every corner of the girl’s skin, sliding straight down, splashing into little droplets on the floor.
An enchanting spring scene unfolded with the rising steam. Her long, straight legs stepped onto the cold floor. The mirror reflected the girl’s smooth, delicate back, and her jet-black, beautiful hair fell over her shoulders.
She wet herself, applied soap, and rubbed. Desire seemed to ignite the heat of her skin, flushing it pink, heightening her sensitivity. Every touch intensified the loss of reason and the birth of impulse.
After her bath, she was like the most beautiful goddess in mythology. Her legs were long, her face exquisite, every inch of her body seemed to have been meticulously crafted by the Creator. Her waist was slender, and the modest curves on her chest had gradually become fuller, growing into the form most capable of stirring a boy’s heart.
The water stopped. Luo Ming took a towel and dried her wet body.
She wore slippers and walked step by step toward Gu Yu on the bed. She leaned down and once again plundered the boy’s lips. With her hands, she took off his clothes and freely touched his body.
Gu Yu’s clothes were soon completely removed. They were naked before each other, holding nothing back, both in body and soul.
“Gu Yu, I’ve been waiting for this day for so long.”
The pink plastic wrapper was torn open. She touched it to the boy’s body, her movements careful and inexperienced, afraid of hurting him.
“Gu Yu… you always refused to give it to me. This time, I’m taking it myself. It’s your fault, for not listening to me.”
Luo Ming caressed the boy’s face, tracing the soft lines. Her hand went up into his soft, thick black hair, and down to stroke his firm, slender chest, igniting a wildfire in his body.
“Be good. I’ll be very gentle. This is my first time too.”
“I’m giving you everything. You have to love me forever, okay?”
Then, she licked the boy’s cheek, and in her dark eyes, a hint of bloodshot madness appeared.
