Xi Mo was enveloped by the water from the showerhead, and the steam rose up around her. She had closed her eyes when Ruan Yesheng kissed her, but now she slowly opened them, her vision seemingly veiled by a layer of mist.
Even when Ruan Yesheng asked her for a kiss, there seemed to be a subtle distance between them.
It was a hazy, veiled allure, not too ostentatious, but rather like a binding silk thread that instantly captivated her entire being. Xi Mo's gaze seemed to be controlled by Ruan Yesheng, fixed on Ruan Yesheng's face.
Xi Mo's hand was still around Ruan Yesheng's body. Her fingertips moved on that skin, and the undisguised softness and delicacy seemed to melt in hot water, lingering on her fingertips.
"You...don't want to kiss me?" Seeing that she didn't move, Ruan Yesheng moved closer.
Xi Mo's breath seemed to be burning hot. She remained silent, her damp clothes clinging to her body, the curves of her chest rising and falling.
Does she... want to kiss Yesheng?
Xi Mo asked herself this question.
When their lips met before, she was mostly passive.
But for a fleeting moment, she couldn't resist and kissed Ruan Yesheng's lips.
Perhaps it was because of the warm water, but she felt that the lips were even softer than Ruan Yesheng's lips that she had accidentally touched while eating cherries that day. Perhaps it was because her mood was different.
"Even after all this, are you still going to act like a block of wood?" Ruan Yesheng wrapped her arms around her neck, gazing at her through the misty air: "Just now when I kissed you, you... only responded once..."
Her words carried a hint of pitiful coquettishness, and a touch of disappointment.
Xi Mo's heart tightened suddenly.
"Xi Mo, I love kissing you so much." Ruan Yesheng moved gently, murmuring, "If you also... loved kissing me so much, how wonderful that would be."
Xi Mo's heart suddenly trembled.
Is this Ruan Yesheng's wish?
At this moment, Xi Mo so desperately wanted to fulfill Ruan Yesheng's wish.
If Ruan Yesheng really likes doing this.
Then... that's settled.
Without further hesitation, Xi Mo pulled Ruan Yesheng closer, held her tightly in her arms, and lowered her head slightly to kiss her in the flowing water.
Ruan Yesheng finally got the kiss she had been offered, and her whole body shook.
At first, Xi Mo’s kiss was a bit clumsy.
She had never thought about kissing anyone before, and she didn't film kissing scenes. But in real life, seeing kissing scenes is very easy, especially for an actress like her. Even if you have not eaten pork, you have at least seen many pigs run, so it should not be a problem. Still, this first kiss of real meaning wasn't very smooth.
Maybe it was because she was nervous.
Luckily, Ruan Yesheng guided her on purpose.
Xi Mo answered Ruan Yesheng with her actions. She would kiss her well.
Water mist slowly rose with the sound of water.
It wrapped around them in the bathroom, and white light floated all around.
Xi Mo’s thoughts also rose and fell in this white light. Her soul felt trapped in a dream and didn't want to wake up. But her body was still lying on the bed, tightly holding Ruan Yesheng from behind. Sometimes her hands even touched Ruan Yesheng without thinking.
She and the Ruan Yesheng in her arms were clearly having two different dreams.
Yet they seemed tangled together, sinking.
But while Ruan Yesheng and Xi Mo could lie there and dream, Yu An next door didn't even dare to close her eyes.
After waiting a long time for Shen Qingbie to finish showering, she thought Shen Qingbie would fall asleep fast after getting drunk. Who knew Shen Qingbie drank too much Dream Wine, and instead of sleeping, she could not fall asleep easily and stayed excited for quite a while.
Shen Qingbie wasn’t making drunk trouble. She still looked well behaved, but from time to time she made small moves that bothered Yu An. Sometimes she hugged a pillow and rolled on the bed, rolling from one end to the other, and she muttered strange words. Sometimes she hugged the pillow and got out of bed, walking around the bed back and forth, like she was sleepwalking.
Her mouth didn’t stop talking.
Yu An was already half asleep, but Shen Qingbie’s talking gave her a headache, and she got a little angry. But when she saw Shen Qingbie rest her chin on the pillow, her cheeks red, staring at her, her defense broke at once, and only a sigh was left.
Forget it.
Who can resist…such cuteness?
When Shen Qingbie finally calmed down and lay on the bed, Yu An could finally relax a bit. But seeing Shen Qingbie like this, she didn’t dare leave. She could only shower in the bathroom of Shen Qingbie’s room. Even this shower made her nervous, and she had to keep listening to the sounds outside.
After Yu An finished showering, she didn’t dry her hair. She was afraid she’d make noise and wake Shen Qingbie, so she only wiped it with a towel.
But Shen Qingbie suddenly moved again and sat up on the bed.
Yu An: “...”
She jumped in fright, and the towel in her hand froze. After watching for a while, she saw Shen Qingbie was only sitting there, with no other drunk moves. Only then did her heart settle, and she kept wiping her hair.
“...A’Yu.” Shen Qingbie sat there, like she was talking in her sleep.
Yu An quickly walked over and sat by the bed.
Shen Qingbie’s eyes opened a little. They were dull at first from the alcohol. When she turned her head and saw Yu An, her eyes cleared up, and she called again, “...A’Yu.”
Yu An’s heart melted when she heard that soft voice, and she worried even more. “...Why aren’t you sleeping, why are you tossing around.”

“...Sleep?” Shen Qingbie tilted her head.
“It’s very late, and you drank alcohol. Go to sleep,” Yu An said.
“A’Yu, are you going back to your own room to sleep?” Shen Qingbie’s mind came back a little, but her words were still unclear. “Can you… sleep here?”
Yu An went quiet and didn’t answer right away.
Shen Qingbie thought she didn’t agree. She leaned over and held Yu An’s arm. “A’Yu… after we came back from Heizhugou, we haven’t slept together once. Just sleep with me one time.”
Yu An: “...”
What kind of words were these? So ambiguous.
If she didn’t know what Shen Qingbie was like, she’d almost be fooled by the vague meaning. Shen Qingbie didn’t understand flirting at all. She was just dumb.
“Alright, I’ll sleep here tonight,” Yu An said helplessly. “Look how drunk you are. If I don’t stay and watch you, you’ll probably roll off the bed.”
“That’s great.” Shen Qingbie smiled with sleepy drunk eyes. “I can finally… sleep with you, A’Yu.”
She said that, then lowered her head again, looking dazed.
Yu An couldn’t deal with her. She kept wiping her hair and watching her, feeling like she’d never stop worrying.
Shen Qingbie was probably bored sitting there, and she couldn’t fall asleep no matter what, so she reached out and pulled at her pajamas. Sometimes she even rolled up the hem with her hand and played with it for no reason.
Yu An almost couldn’t watch, but she couldn’t really say anything, so she let her be.
After rolling the hem, Shen Qingbie nodded a little. After a while, she lifted her pajamas, like she was confused.
Yu An: “...”
She lowered her head and touched herself, looking very pleased. Then she lifted the pajamas higher on purpose, like she wanted to show Yu An something good. She turned to Yu An and said, “A’Yu… look at my abs. I trained for a long time.”
Yu An: “...”
Shen Qingbie moved closer. Now she was right in front of Yu An. She grabbed Yu An’s wrist. She wasn’t showing off. She just wanted Yu An to see.
“I’ll let you touch it. How is it… hehe, I trained well, right?”
Yu An’s hand froze on her skin.
Her fingers stopped.
“Why aren’t you… moving?” Shen Qingbie pulled Yu An’s hand against her body and asked seriously. “If you don’t move, how do you know if my abs are good or not.”
Yu An almost couldn’t hold the towel anymore, and it dropped onto the bed. Her other hand, the one Shen Qingbie was holding, felt like it wasn’t under her control anymore and followed Shen Qingbie’s pull.
“Qingqing, you… you don’t…” Yu An almost couldn’t speak clearly.
“Don’t… what?” After getting drunk, Shen Qingbie seemed even more foolish.
She spoke more directly. Her hand didn’t let go. Her eyes stared straight at Yu An. After looking at her for a long time, she suddenly leaned closer.
Yu An’s heart started beating faster.
Shen Qingbie kissed Yu An on the cheek, then leaned back.
Yu An felt like she got shocked. She almost shook and rolled off the bed. She’d seen big scenes before, but she always lost here with Shen Qingbie. She touched her cheek in a daze.
Shen Qingbie had kissed her cheek before, when they took selfies together.
But this time, Yu An felt numb all the way down her spine.
Shen Qingbie looked at her and said in a drunken blur, “A’Yu, you’re so pretty, and you smell… nice.”
Yu An didn’t know how to answer. Her heart was pounding. After a long while, she said, “…So that’s why you kissed me?”
“I just think you’re really good,” Shen Qingbie said. “I wanted to kiss you.”
She was innocent even when drunk. Yu An knew she probably didn’t mean anything like that, but she still fell in. Without thinking, she said, “Qingqing, I also think you’re really good. Can I… kiss you?”
“Of course you can. Who are we? We’re the closest good sisters. Of course… we should kiss.”
Shen Qingbie moved her cheek over on her own and pointed at her smooth face.
“Here, you can kiss.”
Yu An hesitated for a long time, then carefully leaned over and kissed Shen Qingbie on the cheek.
“…I kissed you,” Yu An said softly.
Shen Qingbie’s eyes got clearer. She leaned closer.
“…I want more.”
Yu An’s eyes moved from Shen Qingbie’s cheek to her lips.
They were slightly pouted, with a wet red shine.
Shen Qingbie leaned in and urged her.
Yu An quickly kissed Shen Qingbie on the lips, then pulled back in panic. Her ears started buzzing, and her heart kept asking what she was doing, if she was… crazy.
Shen Qingbie suddenly froze.
For a moment, she couldn’t quite believe it. “A’Yu, you… you kissed my lips?”
“I’m sorry, Qingqing.” After she asked that, Yu An actually started to stutter, which was rare. The alcohol seemed to spread with it. “I… I was drunk, and my eyes were blurry, so I kissed the wrong place. I was really trying to kiss your cheek.”
She kissed Shen Qingbie’s lips without getting her permission, and she felt deep regret and guilt.
Especially since Shen Qingbie was still so drunk and confused.
Yu An only wanted to slap herself.
Shen Qingbie stuck out her tongue and licked her own lips, like she was tasting Yu An. After a while, she murmured, “It feels so good.”
Yu An trembled all over and thought she must be hearing things.
Shen Qingbie seemed to taste something amazing. When Yu An didn’t come closer, she got pushed by the alcohol and moved over herself. She wrapped her arms around Yu An and almost hung on her.
“A’Yu, I… I want more.”
“More… what?” Yu An’s arms were shaking as she held her.
“I want you to kiss me again.” Shen Qingbie’s eyes were watery. “A’Yu, kiss me, kiss my lips. I think it feels better than kissing my cheek.”
Yu An swallowed hard and said, “Qingqing, stop it. Go to sleep.”
Of course she wanted to kiss her.
But her reason told her she couldn’t. Shen Qingbie was drunk. She was already foolish, and when she was drunk, she didn’t know east from west. How could she really know the difference between kissing a cheek and kissing lips.
When Shen Qingbie couldn’t wait for Yu An to kiss her, she kissed Yu An’s lips herself.
Yu An: “!”
Shen Qingbie was dizzy and thought Yu An’s lips were so soft.
The tight string in Yu An’s mind snapped at once, and her world turned to dust.
The alcohol fully drowned Yu An too. She felt light and floated as she responded to Shen Qingbie’s clumsy moves.
Shen Qingbie didn’t know what she was doing at all, so Yu An could only guide her gently.
After that, it got even more chaotic.
Yu An held Shen Qingbie in her arms and made her call her name.
“…A’Yu.” Shen Qingbie had no experience. Her voice almost carried broken sobs, and her cheeks were red.
“Qingqing.” Yu An coaxed her by her ear. “Do you… like me?”
“…Huh?” Shen Qingbie’s confusion got cut off by the sound she made next.
When Yu An heard that sound, she wanted to hold her even tighter.
This bar night seemed so long, and it didn’t feel tired at all.
The next morning, Ruan Yesheng woke up with her mind floating. At the moment she woke, she almost couldn’t feel her body. Her eyelids were heavy. She lifted them several times before she barely opened them and looked at the light coming through the gap in the curtains.
The light was a little hazy, and it reminded her of the light in her dream.
Sometimes, after waking up, people forget what they dreamed about.
But right now, the dream Ruan Yesheng had last night played in her mind like a movie, clear and vivid.
Even the way Xi Mo held her, kissed her, and wanted her in the dream felt like it truly existed right in front of her.
Ruan Yesheng’s face turned red, and her heart raced. She bit her lip hard and thought that Yan Niang’s dream wine really didn’t lie to her. She truly dreamed of what she wanted most. Even if it was only a dream, she felt satisfied.
As she replayed the dream, her senses slowly returned.
But something felt a bit… off.
Someone was holding her tight from behind, and that person’s hand had reached around and was inside her clothes.
Ruan Yesheng’s mind froze for a moment. She didn’t dare turn around and lay stiff like stone.
The familiar closeness told her who was behind her.
Xi Mo seemed not awake yet, but her hand moved without thinking.
Ruan Yesheng jolted and curled up a little: “…”
Last night’s dream and the morning reality mixed together and stirred her thoughts into chaos.
“Mmm… Yesheng.” Xi Mo pressed close to her neck and murmured, “Sorry. I can’t… I can’t do it.”
Ruan Yesheng felt that Xi Mo said this without awareness. She didn’t dare breathe and forced her racing heart to calm down, then kept listening.
After that, Xi Mo went silent again.
Ruan Yesheng suddenly felt disappointed. She also didn’t understand what Xi Mo meant by those words. What couldn’t she do? Did she dream that Ruan Yesheng asked her to do something she couldn’t, so she felt sorry?
She held her breath and waited for a while, but instead, Xi Mo woke up.
Xi Mo opened her eyes. Ruan Yesheng was facing away, her slightly curled long hair spread across the pillow.
“…Yesheng.” When Xi Mo saw her clearly, panic rushed into her voice. Her ears turned red at once, as if she recalled something.
She was so flustered that she didn’t even notice where her hand was.
Ruan Yesheng heard Xi Mo’s voice. This time it wasn’t sleep talk. She wanted to turn around and look at Xi Mo, but Xi Mo’s hand was still inside her clothes. She was afraid that if she moved, Xi Mo would pull it back.
The dream in Xi Mo’s mind was still clear. Even the way Ruan Yesheng kissed her in the water felt close at hand. She didn’t dare move either, especially since Ruan Yesheng was facing away. She had no idea if Ruan Yesheng was awake.
They stayed like this on the bed for a long time.
Xi Mo’s body grew hotter, and she finally realized how improper her hand was. She wanted to pull it back, but she was afraid of waking Ruan Yesheng, so she slowly moved it out of Ruan Yesheng’s clothes, bit by bit.
Seeing her sneaky move, Ruan Yesheng smiled lightly and said, “You’ve left it there so long already. Why not keep it there a bit more?”
Xi Mo: “…”
She realized Ruan Yesheng was awake and pulled her hand back at once.
Ruan Yesheng felt empty inside. She turned around with a helpless look and ran straight into Xi Mo’s red, flustered face.
Xi Mo quickly rolled over and turned to the other side.
Author's Note:
Ruaneuan and Xi Mo were both dreaming, but Qingqing and A’Yu are really... in trouble.
Honestly, I think the reaction after waking up in the morning is more fun than at night, haha.
