"I can't sleep because you're clinging to me like this." Qin Wanshu frowned and said, reaching out to take away Zuo Qinghuan's paw on her abdomen.
"Qin Wanshu!" Zuo Qinghuan suddenly called her name.
“Mm?" Qin Wanshu continued closing her eyes when she saw Zuo Qinghuan didn't persist in placing her paw on her abdomen.
"Have you ever had an orgasm?" Zuo Qinghuan leaned close to Qin Wanshu's ear like a best friend secretly talking about a private topic.
Qin Wanshu didn't respond; she isn't interested in this topic. However, at this moment, she felt Zuo Qinghuan was merely gossiping rather than intentionally trying to embarrass her.
"Don't you want to try what it feels like?" Zuo Qinghuan gently twirled a few strands of Qin Wanshu's hair with her fingers, bringing them close to her own nose to sniff. It was so fragrant. She finally understood why Li Xin liked women.
Qin Wanshu still didn't respond, her breathing remained steady as if she was sound asleep.
"That feeling is really wonderful, it would be such a pity not to experience it," Zuo Qinghuan's gaze shifted from Qin Wanshu's profile to her neck, which was incredibly alluring, tempting her to take a bite on her neck.
With her eyes closed, Qin Wanshu felt her senses becoming heightened. She sensed Zuo Qinghuan's breath on her face, as well as the unrestrained words mixed with emotions, compelling Qin Wanshu to open her eyes again. She gazed at Zuo Qinghuan's eyes with a complex expression, making it impossible for Zuo Qinghuan to discern her emotions.
"Should we give it a try? Perhaps I could cure your frigidity," Zuo Qinghuan's lips nearly touched Qin Wanshu's fair neck. At that moment of near contact, Qin Wanshu tensed up and suddenly pushed Zuo Qinghuan away.
"Zuo Qinghuan, if you keep harassing me, I'll leave immediately," Qin Wanshu warned, realizing staying was indeed a mistake.
“Okay, I won't bother you. Let's just sleep together," Zuo Qinghuan defeatedly uttered. She knew Qin Wanshu was serious; she didn't want her to leave in the middle of the night. So she had to restrain herself. She truly wanted to tempt Qin Wanshu into breaking the rules, but Qin Wanshu seemed resistant to such advances. She couldn't be too aggressive; she needed to slowly make progress. Seeing Qin Wanshu troubled this late, she decided to let her off tonight. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future.
Zuo Qinghuan, now behaving herself, lay down beside her, closed her eyes, and soon drifted off to sleep. On the contrary, Qin Wanshu, who had initially felt drowsy, found herself unable to sleep due to Zuo Qinghuan's nonsense.
Frigidity... was she truly frigid? Before meeting Zuo Qinghuan, Qin Wanshu had never paid attention to this issue. Although she had never experienced the so-called orgasm as Zuo Qinghuan mentioned, was it really that significant? Perhaps it was, otherwise, Han Shibin wouldn't have cheated. Thinking of this, Qin Wanshu felt somewhat agitated. For the first time, she pondered whether she should also experience what it was like. It seemed to cast a shadow not only over her marriage but also over Han Shibin's supposed love. She quickly shook her head and chuckled. She realized she was indeed being influenced by Zuo Qinghuan; otherwise, why would she entertain such absurd thoughts?
Qin Wanshu looked at Zuo Qinghuan's face. Thinking that this face, which looked like a fairy and was as stoic as a fairy, had once indulged in Han Shibin's body. Qin Wanshu's mood became somewhat complex; she seemed to dislike the thought of that scene. She turned her head away, unwilling to look at Zuo Qinghuan, instead lying with her back turned. She switched off the bedside lamp and closed her eyes again.
Qin Wanshu woke up first, realizing Zuo Qinghuan had somehow moved close again. Zuo Qinghuan's face was buried in her neck, her hand still on Qin Wanshu's abdomen. Strangely, Qin Wanshu rarely slept so deeply that she hadn't noticed it.
Qin Wanshu looked at her watch and found that it was already past ten o'clock. She rarely slept so late. She gently pushed Zuo Qinghuan.
"Zuo Qinghuan, it's time to wake up," Qin Wanshu's voice was as gentle as could be just after waking up.
Zuo Qinghuan opened her eyes and saw Qin Wanshu's delicate and beautiful face, and then leaned onto her body.
"Stay with me a little longer, please..." Zuo Qinghuan coquettishly said and rubbed against Qin Wanshu's chest, resembling a bed-loving little girl, looking cute, causing Qin Wanshu to momentarily not realize that Zuo Qinghuan was eating her tofu*.
*taking advantage of her
"Then continue sleeping; I'll get up first," Qin Wanshu gently spoke, attempting to detach Zuo Qinghuan's whole body that was hanging onto her.
"No, just let me hold you for a little while," Zuo Qinghuan said stubbornly.
Qin Wanshu couldn't break away from a certain octopus-like creature, so she had no choice but to continue lying with a certain person.

"Qin Wanshu, what are you going to do now?" After an unknown period had passed, Zuo Qinghuan, who was already awake, asked.
"What?" Qin Wanshu didn't know what Zuo Qinghuan was asking. She wasn't used to Zuo Qinghuan's abrupt questions.
"What would you do now that you know your husband is cheating? Would you divorce?" Zuo Qinghuan asked two questions in a row.
"I won't get divorced." Qin Wanshu replied calmly.
"Why won't you leave?" Zuo Qinghuan asked. Sometimes it is not a virtue for a woman to be too tolerant.
"What's the point of divorcing? The next one might be the same, besides, he hasn't fallen out of love; he just can't control his body," Qin Wanshu felt she might tolerate Han Shibin's cheating.
"Why look for another?"
"Isn't it normal for women to get married?" In Qin Wanshu's view, marriage was entirely reasonable. Even if she hadn't married Han Shibin initially, she would have married another man. Everyone did the same. Therefore, Qin Wanshu didn't intend to be an exception. She wanted to find someone to grow old with gradually. Even if there wasn't love, after spending so many years together and aging, there would still be emotions. Moreover, Han Shibin had been good to her for so many years, and his affair couldn't erase it all.
Not all women will get married, at least they would plan to stay single. In fact, Zuo Qinghuan thought that Qin Wanshu was very traditional.
"Then how are you going to deal with me, the mistress?" Zuo Qinghuan asked curiously.
"I haven't thought about it yet." Qin Wanshu said honestly, "How will you, the mistress, feel after being found out by me, the original wife? You know, the legal wife usually will not let this situation continue." Qin Wanshu unusually spoke in a relaxed tone.
"I have no intention to change anything. I still want to gain a large sum from the benefactor to save for my retirement when I'm old and past my prime," Zuo Qinghuan said with a smile.
"How much money does Han Shibin give you, I'll give you the same amount, would you leave Han Shibin then?" Qin Wanshu asked, believing that if the issue could be solved with money, then it wasn't a problem at all.
"It's different. I spend Han Shibin's money naturally; it's a transaction, a willing buyer and a willing seller. But I don't want to spend your money. I don't like accepting your charity," Zuo Qinghuan frowned.
Qin Wanshu slightly lifted the corner of her mouth; this argument was indeed interesting.
"You can also think of it as a transaction, paying you to leave my husband." Qin Wanshu said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Zuo Qinghuan's good mood suddenly sank. She didn't mind doing business with Han Shibin because she didn't mind being treated cheaply by him. However, she did mind doing business with Qin Wanshu because she minded being treated cheaply by her. Zuo Qinghuan had always thought there might be something different about her and Qin Wanshu, but now it seemed she had deluded herself. This realization seemed ironic to Zuo Qinghuan, and beneath her self-preservation, her underlying feelings of inferiority began to surface.
"But I don't want to do business with you. I've discovered I quite like Han Shibin, actually," Zuo Qinghuan said with a smile, a smile that carried an indescribable sense of illusion. Her body silently withdrew from Qin Wanshu.
Qin Wanshu raised an eyebrow slightly. It seemed this woman cared a lot about her, and she also appeared quite sensitive. Thinking about this, Qin Wanshu's feelings became somewhat complex. Perhaps that's why not only could she not bring herself to deal harshly with her, but also why her tolerance of Zuo Qinghuan exceeded her expectations.
"Really?" Qin Wanshu looked at Zuo Qinghuan with a half-smile and asked.
Zuo Qinghuan felt as if Qin Wanshu had caught onto something about her, making her extremely uncomfortable under Qin Wanshu's gaze.
