PSMD – Chapter 20

After Shen Ningruo went back to sober up, Qiu Yang stared blankly at the Xiao Yang plush toy on the coffee table.

The toy wasn’t big, perhaps slightly larger than a phone, and wouldn’t take up much space in a suitcase.

This was the first time someone had given her a plush toy; the two she owned before were both ones she had bought herself.

Qiu Yang stared at it, many images flashing before her eyes, finally settling on Shen Ningruo’s smile before she returned to her room.

Perhaps this trip to Xicheng wasn’t entirely without gain.

Qiu Yang picked up the toy and put it in her suitcase.

This could be considered the only souvenir from her brief encounter with Shen Ningruo.

The delivery person arrived just then. The hot water Qiu Yang had boiled had cooled down considerably, but that was perfect.

She mixed two cups of honey water, drank some herself, and then carried the other cup to Shen Ningruo’s door.

Shen Ningruo seemed to be feeling the effects of the alcohol again; the corners of her eyes were slightly pink, and her usually sharp face now had a touch of softness.

Qiu Yang stood at the door, handing over the honey water, unconsciously using a slightly commanding tone: “Drink some.”

“Okay.” Shen Ningruo took it, giving Qiu Yang a smile that inexplicably made Qiu Yang feel it was polite yet distant. “Thank you.”

“You’re welcome.” Qiu Yang took the initiative to close the door for her, hiding her feelings, and returned to her own room.

There was still some work to do, but it wasn’t urgent. Qiu Yang drew the curtains again and, with a slight buzz from the alcohol, took a nap.

When she woke up, it was already evening. Qiu Yang was disoriented for a few seconds before fully pulling herself out of the hazy state.

She pulled back the curtains and saw the night sky was completely dark. However, from her window, she could see some buildings with lights on, like fireflies on a summer night.

It was just that she couldn’t see the moon from her side.

Thinking of the moon, Qiu Yang’s eyelid twitched. She was still somewhat afraid of the moon; the way they had viewed it last night had left a deep impression on her heart.

It wouldn’t fade away anytime soon.

Her phone vibrated twice beside her. She rubbed her eyes.

After unlocking it, she opened WeChat. Sure enough, it was another video of Pingzi sent by Miao Yi.

This time, Miao Yi’s voice was in the video: “Xiao Pingzi, do you miss your mommy? Your mommy will be back in two days, aren’t you happy?”

Pingzi ignored her, eating his dinner.

Qiu Yang couldn’t help but let out a laugh. When she realized it, she noticed it had been a long time since she had laughed.

In fact, on the day they broke up, when Tao Sixian asked her out for dinner, she had gone with a smile.

But on the way back, she was close to tears. She held it in the whole way and only burst into tears when she got back to her apartment.

Now, when she occasionally thought about that relationship, she still felt like crying, but she could control it. She only allowed her eyes to turn red, not to shed tears.

Because Tao Sixian, that scumbag, wasn’t worth it.

Qiu Yang watched the video twice more, then took a shower. When it was about time, she knocked on Shen Ningruo’s door to let her know.

Shen Ningruo had said in the afternoon that Qiu Yang could get revenge however she wanted tonight.

Tonight should be in Qiu Yang’s room.

Now, every time Qiu Yang thought of the moon, she couldn’t help but clench her fists.

She absolutely had to get revenge for this.

She wouldn’t be Chinese if she didn’t get revenge.

Shen Ningruo was completely sober. After she came in, she immediately saw the Xiao Yang plush toy placed inside Qiu Yang’s suitcase. The smile at the corner of her lips deepened. She asked Qiu Yang, her tone light and airy, as if full of anticipation: “How are you going to get revenge on me tonight?”

Her attitude was quite good; she wasn’t worried at all about what Qiu Yang might do.

Because what was there to be afraid of? As long as it wasn’t S&M or anything she would never try, wouldn’t she be the one enjoying the other positions anyway?

Shen Ningruo understood her own needs very well. Perhaps it was truly because she had reached a certain age.

Qiu Yang furrowed her brow slightly and lifted her chin: “Go dry your hair first.”

Shen Ningruo hadn’t dried her hair yet; the towel was still wrapped around her head.

“Okay.” Shen Ningruo skillfully entered the bathroom, not treating herself like a guest at all. She hadn’t dried her hair in her own room to make her lie from last night believable, specifically waiting for Qiu Yang to come over.

Qiu Yang sat on the edge of the bed, listening to the whirring sound of the hairdryer coming from the bathroom, and swallowed.

She was nervous.

After having relations with Shen Ningruo for a few nights, it wasn’t like she hadn’t been on top of Shen Ningruo before.

It was just that she still hadn’t figured out how to get revenge in a way that satisfied her.

Before she was with Tao Sixian, Qiu Yang would occasionally watch some indescribable videos out of curiosity.

But she always watched with a frown and would turn them off after a short while.

And after being with Tao Sixian, because it was quickly labeled a “spiritual relationship,” Qiu Yang had been like someone abstaining from sex for the past three years. She hadn’t even watched videos anymore, let alone had any other experience.

So now she could only grope her way forward based on feeling, but she was getting more and more nervous, and her mind felt stuck. Shen Ningruo had already come out of the bathroom, and she still hadn’t figured out how to get revenge.

Qiu Yang appeared calm on the surface, not showing any panic on her face.

She watched Shen Ningruo walk towards her until she stood in front of her.

Only a floor lamp was on, adding a touch of romance to the atmosphere.

Shen Ningruo blocked most of the light. She raised her hand and skillfully smoothed Qiu Yang’s hair again, then touched Qiu Yang’s earlobe. When the other person shivered slightly, she let out a triumphant laugh: “Have you thought about it?”

“Yes, I have.” Qiu Yang nodded, trying hard to look composed. “You’ll be on top.”

Shen Ningruo looked at her bright eyes and was slightly stunned by her words, but only for two seconds. She quickly returned to normal, curved the corner of her lips, and agreed: “Okay.”

“Alright.”

That’s what she said, but when it came to the actual practice, it was a bit difficult. Qiu Yang didn’t know if she was punishing Shen Ningruo or herself.

Both of them clearly lacked experience, and their bodies hadn’t been fully “developed.” Quite some time passed without them realizing it.

Shen Ningruo usually exercised, but this position was no different from doing a plank, except her knees weren’t suspended but spread apart and resting on the bed.

There was a difference, but compared to the time spent, the level of exhaustion was no different from doing a plank.

Her center of gravity was completely shifted. Shen Ningruo’s hands were supporting herself on either side of Qiu Yang’s head.

The bedside lamp in the room wasn’t turned off. She could see Qiu Yang’s gentle expression.

It was also an expression devoid of emotion.

Between them, there was only sex, no love.

Shen Ningruo was very clear about this, and Qiu Yang understood it too.

“Xiao Yang…” Shen Ningruo was a little tired. She lowered her head and kissed Qiu Yang’s lips, looking miserable. “Is this your revenge?”

Qiu Yang’s movements stopped: “Only just realized?”

Shen Ningruo gave up. She flipped her body over and lay down beside Qiu Yang, steadying her breathing.

Her experience wasn’t very good.

Because she was basically just doing physical exercise.

Qiu Yang looked at her like this and chuckled. She leaned over and kissed her ear, then whispered beside it: “You took me climbing, I’m giving you a workout. We’re even.”

Shen Ningruo: “…”

How had she only just realized that Qiu Yang was a little cunning?

After saying that, Qiu Yang lifted the covers, got out of bed, and turned off the light. The room was completely plunged into darkness.

Silence enveloped them.

Qiu Yang also knew she hadn’t done a good job, so after getting back under the covers, she didn’t stay idle and launched another “attack” on Shen Ningruo.

Even if they were just FWB, it should still be harmonious, right?

This time went much smoother. Their bodies pressed against each other without reservation.

Qiu Yang’s lips, tongue, and fingertips seemed to be touched by magic, leaving traces of tingling and trembling wherever they went on Shen Ningruo.

One person grew hotter and hotter, one couldn’t control herself, one let out soft moans.

One person lifted the covers, one person parted her legs, one person leaned down.

When it ended, Shen Ningruo was completely drained of strength. Qiu Yang pulled the covers up and leaned over to gently kiss the corner of her mouth: “Goodnight.”

Shen Ningruo’s throat bobbed. She said in a slightly hoarse voice: “Five-star review for you.”

Qiu Yang: “…”

Two words popped out of Qiu Yang’s mouth: “Thank you.”

She closed her eyes, but Shen Ningruo grabbed her hand and held it. Her voice simultaneously echoed in the quiet room: “Three more nights.”

Qiu Yang: “Mm.”

She was a little sleepy.

Shen Ningruo called her name: “Qiu Yang.”

Since she started calling Qiu Yang “Xiao Yang,” Shen Ningruo rarely called her by her name.

Qiu Yang’s eyelids fluttered open, but she couldn’t see anything. She only heard Shen Ningruo say softly: “You will have someone better who likes and loves you, who won’t deceive or hide things from you, who will be wholeheartedly devoted to you, who will treat you as the most special person, and who will keep you in their heart.”
