Cheng Jun seemed to be way too superstitious about those stories!
“Don’t worry,” Ruan Jiujiu chuckled again and couldn’t resist wanting to reassure him, “There are no heavenly soldiers or generals coming to take me away, no demon grannies, and no celestial beings.”
Cheng Jun’s face was filled with disbelief.
“Alright, we won’t have children if you don’t want to.” If it meant giving Cheng Jun peace of mind and not living the second half of her life without security because of having children, she would rather live together with him.
Their life together was already good enough; they had each other.
A smile played on Ruan Jiujiu’s lips.
The photos in front were all of Cheng Jun, with some pictures of Ruan’s father, but there were no pictures of Cheng Jun’s mother from beginning to end. Ruan Jiujiu cautiously asked, “Um… do you have a picture of your mother? I really want to see what she looks like.”
To give birth to a child like Cheng Jun, she must have been a celestial being-like presence.
Cheng Jun’s fingers flipping through the photo album paused, and he said, “There’s one on the last page.”
Many photos were burned by Father Cheng, fearing that Qiu Wei would be jealous, and he didn’t have time to preserve them. However, for him, photos were just a form of sentimental attachment; the memories in his mind were even more precious.
Ruan Jiujiu turned to the last page, about to say something, and her expression instantly froze.
Her back was tingling, and goosebumps covered her body as she gazed tremblingly at the woman in the photo. The woman in the photo was wearing a high-necked long dress that was out of date by a dozen years, her long hair flowing, and she had a graceful and enchanting smile, with a face that was extraordinarily beautiful.
“She, she, she…”
Cheng Jun: ???
“I saw her! Just yesterday afternoon, in front of the tombstone, she was also wearing this outfit!” Shock and fear mixed together, making Ruan Jiujiu unable to speak clearly, stuttering as she spoke.
She could hardly believe it. The woman in front of Father Cheng’s grave was actually Cheng Jun’s mother’s spirit.
Perhaps she had come to take a look at Father Cheng.
To see this man who had disappointed her finally meet a tragic end.
After the initial shock, upon further reflection, the blurry contours of that face did indeed resemble Cheng Jun somewhat. Cheng Jun’s mother was truly gentle, even though she was no longer in this world. She didn’t seem like a wandering and lonely ghost; she seemed like a celestial being who had descended from heaven.
Cheng Jun blinked uncertainly and asked, “You saw her?”
“Yeah…”
Ruan Jiujiu snapped back to reality, and her fear strangely dissipated, replaced by a lack of fearful emotions. Recalling the scene, Ruan Jiujiu continued, “She was as gentle and beautiful as I imagined. She even told me that she liked me.”
No wonder she said that. It seemed a bit inexplicable at the time, but now everything made perfect sense.
“Is that so.”
Cheng Jun looked at the woman in the album with a faint smile, momentarily lost in thought, and remained motionless for a while.
Ruan Jiujiu added softly, “The direction she was standing in, she was always looking at you.”
Perhaps it was because of her unique constitution that she had the brief opportunity to catch a glimpse of her mother-in-law whom she had never had the chance to meet.
Before, for her, Cheng Jun’s mother was an important symbol, but she had never had a clear concept. After experiencing this incident, Ruan Jiujiu couldn’t help but think that if Cheng Jun’s mother were still alive, they would surely get along very well.
Cheng Jun’s gaze flickered slightly, and in the reflection of the sunlight, it seemed as though a layer of mist was rolling in his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.
He turned away, digesting the subtle emotions that belonged to him.
The sunlight streaming in through the window was warm and not at all harsh. In the cluttered room, a few old items were brought out and placed beside them, and they could vaguely find traces of their previous life among them.
Ruan Jiujiu couldn’t help but squeeze Cheng Jun’s hand, receiving a firmer response.
Cheng Jun’s mother probably wanted to see her. Those few words, full of concern for her, were like a gentle breeze when remembered.
To have earned the affection of such a person was truly an honor.
If she could see her one more time, Ruan Jiujiu really wanted to say that she liked her too.
The driver was waiting outside, and the two of them carried the items out to take them back. This included a pile of certificates and trophies belonging to Cheng Jun, which Ruan Jiujiu brought to the car.
For Cheng Jun, these were nothing but useless junk, but Ruan Jiujiu insisted on taking everything back. Looking at the trophies, Ruan Jiujiu felt a sense of pride: “My Junzai1kind of like a nickname is really amazing!”
The driver chuckled.
Cheng Jun: …
Ruan Jiujiu, who had unintentionally revealed her endearing nickname, showed no sign of embarrassment. Instead, she patted Cheng Jun’s shoulder with gusto, saying, “Don’t worry, when we get home, I’ll clean all of these and hang them all on the wall.”
Cheng Jun had a look on his face that seemed like he wanted to die.
Ruan Jiujiu was just making a playful remark. After returning home, she wiped the trophies clean, organized the certificates, and stored them away. Cheng Jun’s father’s house had been sold to someone else, and the remaining items would be cleared out. If even these memories couldn’t be preserved, it would be a pity.
After having dinner, Cheng Jun very actively sat on Ruan Jiujiu’s bed to assert his position.
Ruan Jiujiu didn’t understand why he was so attached to this bed. She either got tired at night or played games, never giving him a chance to cuddle or kiss. But Cheng Jun was still enthusiastic about it, as if he were announcing his sovereignty, and after allowing him to sleep in this bed, his eyes sparkled.
Looking at Cheng Jun sitting on the bed, Ruan Jiujiu’s mind conjured up an image of a cute and adorable Cheng Jun dressed as a girl, so obedient that it made her want to cuddle him.
Ruan Jiujiu’s eyes lit up.
“Junzai.”
Cheng Jun’s eyelids twitched, realizing her mischievous intentions.
“You promise me one request, and I guarantee I won’t kick you out to sleep elsewhere, how about that?”
“What request?” Cheng Jun had the determination to give up snacks for a year if needed.
Ruan Jiujiu said, “It’s just a small request.”
“Hmm?”
“Would you dress up as a girl just once?”
“…”
After a deathly silence, Cheng Jun stood up and walked to his own study. He decided to go back to sleep.
“Promise, and there will be many benefits for you,” Ruan Jiujiu coaxed, her voice soft and alluring, like a snake tempting Adam and Eve with forbidden fruit. “You can cuddle and kiss all you want, how about that?”
Cheng Jun’s footsteps halted in their tracks.
As a man, he definitely wouldn’t agree to cross-dress. So, he chose cuddles and kisses.
Cheng Jun decisively returned to Ruan Jiujiu’s room, sat on the bed, and adopted the demeanor of a lamb to the slaughter.
Ruan Jiujiu cheered, quickly ran to the wardrobe to change her clothes, and wanted to consult Cheng Jun on what he’d like to wear. Cheng Jun’s response was a deathly stare.
Ruan Jiujiu found a plain, long dress. Fortunately, she still had a wig she had bought when she had long hair, which came in handy today.
Cheng Jun let Ruan Jiujiu arrange him like a human mannequin.
She placed the wig on him, applied light makeup, and when everything was done, Ruan Jiujiu handed the long dress to Cheng Jun and then went outside to wait for him to put it on.
There were rustling sounds coming from the room.
After a while, Cheng Jun said, “I’m done.”
Ruan Jiujiu pushed open the door with anticipation, and her breath caught in her throat. The beauty sitting on the bed was absolutely stunning, with delicate and exquisite facial features, and a touch of rouge on the lips that made them even more alluring. His black hair flowed like a waterfall, and the long dress, which should have reached his ankles, only came down to his knees, revealing fair skin with graceful lines. This androgynous beauty, somewhere between male and female, left Ruan Jiujiu almost speechless.
Indeed, he looked amazing!
Ruan Jiujiu couldn’t help but swallow hard, her throat dry, as she walked shakily towards Cheng Jun.
The beauty raised his eyes, with a hint of watery luster, actually due to boredom as he let out a yawn. He asked, “Am I done?”
Ruan Jiujiu, like an ancient young master encountering a top courtesan, reached out and gently lifted his chin so that he could look directly at her face. Their eyes locked, and Ruan Jiujiu raised an eyebrow, mischievously asking, “Do you know what ‘eat rouge’ means?”
Cheng Jun: “Hmm?”
“Only that phrase can capture my current mood.”
With that, Ruan Jiujiu slowly leaned down and kissed his lips in his gaze. Beauty sitting on one’s lap could not be wasted, and her mind was filled with thoughts of savoring Cheng Jun’s sweetness at this moment. She pressed her legs against the bed and pushed Cheng Jun down.
Then, she grabbed Cheng Jun and kissed him.
The sensation of their lips meeting was incredibly delightful. Ruan Jiujiu gently nibbled on Cheng Jun’s lips, causing him to react unconsciously. Experiencing the feeling of being the initiator for the first time, Ruan Jiujiu’s entire nervous system became excited involuntarily. After savoring his lips, she trailed a series of lingering kisses down his jawline and neck, leaving behind traces of lipstick that were incredibly seductive.
Ruan Jiujiu couldn’t resist licking his prominent Adam’s apple.
Lying on the bed, Cheng Jun had broken into a light sweat. Ruan Jiujiu’s bold and proactive actions had stiffened his body, and a gasp escaped from his throat. He greatly enjoyed her current initiative and boldness but restrained himself from flipping over and pinning Ruan Jiujiu to the bed.
Through the soft fabric, she lightly touched his skin, feeling his fiery warmth.
Ruan Jiujiu became increasingly excited and played with abandon.
She was determined to be as proactive as possible. This night was exceptionally passionate, with enthusiastic responses, and it continued until well past midnight before they finally fell asleep. Clothes were strewn everywhere, and the wig had long been tossed to the floor. Ruan Jiujiu’s body felt weak and she couldn’t move, exhausted to the point where she just wanted to sleep soundly.
She lay in Cheng Jun’s arms, falling into a drowsy state.
They slept until dawn.
The absurdity of the previous night left Ruan Jiujiu feeling mentally exhausted the next day, and she spent the entire day in the office feeling lethargic, not wanting to move at all. Old Meng found it a bit strange and teased Ruan Jiujiu, asking if she had stayed up late playing video games again.
As she recalled the scenes from last night, Ruan Jiujiu couldn’t help but blush and feel her heart race.
Today, Tu Nan noticed that the boss was unusually focused on work. He had been staring at the computer screen all day without blinking. By evening, he still looked energetic, like a fully charged robot.
Tu Nan couldn’t help but mutter to himself, wondering if love truly drove people to excel?
If he were to take a look at Cheng Jun’s computer screen right now, he would see various plus-size women’s clothing displayed on it2I’M DEAD AHAHAHA.
“…”
When Ruan Jiujiu returned home, she was feeling a bit lazy and didn’t want to cook, so she and Cheng Jun ordered takeout for dinner. After eating, Bai Long invited her to play games together. She played a few rounds half-heartedly, but then realized that Cheng Jun hadn’t said a word for a while.
“Cheng Jun? What are you doing?”
Ruan Jiujiu entered her bedroom in bewilderment, and then she saw it.
Cheng Jun was sitting on her bed, behaving quite properly, like a student waiting for a reward. When he saw Ruan Jiujiu come in, he pointed to the dress on the bed and said slowly, “Let’s continue tonight.”
Ruan Jiujiu fell silent.
Could someone be so desperate for intimacy that they’d go this far?
Ruan Jiujiu showed Cheng Jun exactly what it meant to refuse ten times over, and what it meant to change his attitude as soon as he pulled his pants up.
She managed to utter one sentence.
“You’re really shameless.”
Author’s note: Haha, I really didn’t expect everyone to be so shocked by Cheng Jun’s mom. She’s actually quite gentle, you know.
You guys are making me want to write a horror story now.
