Zhao Yonghua sang in the song, "The most romantic thing I can think of is to grow old with you." At that time, I thought that this song should be sung to those who are aging in their hearts. Nan Fang and I are not among them.
There was no decent accommodation near the school, so Nanfang had to stay at the Liyuan Hotel in Shapingba. We found a restaurant on the street for dinner and strolled around the street for a while. The air in the evening was humid and hot, just like being in a sauna. After a while, we were sweating all over. We had to go back to the room to take a shower and chat.
We turned on the air conditioner and lay on our backs on the large double bed in the Liyuan Hotel. He had just finished a shower, and the mist was lingering around him. There was a sweet smell in the air. He stretched his limbs, and I stood up on the bed and looked down. He looked like a huge "大" character lying across the middle of the bed. I was about to get out of bed to get some water, but Nan Fang suddenly sat up and hugged me, not letting me get off the bed. I was startled, and turned around to tickle him with a smile... We made a mess on the bed, like two children, until I laughed so hard that my belly hurt.
We sat down quietly again, looking at each other carefully. Every time we met, we had experienced a long wait. Longing had already been planted in our hearts, blossoming, accumulating little by little until it filled the entire left atrium. At this moment, we couldn't wait to let them all out. We looked into each other's eyes, but we couldn't see enough...
He hugged me, gently stroked my face and neck, helped me lift my hair from my forehead, his eyes were affectionate and focused.
My heart trembled slightly, as if my heartstrings were plucked, and I couldn't help but stretch out my hands and hug his neck. He tentatively and slowly put his face against mine and kissed me, from forehead to eyes, cheeks, ears, and finally my lips. The warmth slowly moved from my neck to my earlobes.
I felt that hardness again, just like that midsummer day by the river. He was stunned for a moment, then stopped, hugged me and leaned on his shoulders, closed his eyes and said in a dreamy voice, "Qiuqiu, help me."
I didn't say anything, just lowered my head and cooperated with him obediently. He nervously unbuttoned his pants, gently pulled my hand and put it in. I felt like I was electrocuted and unconsciously shrank back. He opened his eyes and smiled at me very innocently, his face flushed, like a child who had done something wrong. I tried to put it in again, he pulled my hand, tightly held the swollen flower bud and slid it up and down... Finally, a warm current surged out.
…
I stayed at the Liyuan Hotel until 10:30 p.m. Nanfang sent me back to school. On the way back, I bought two snacks from a street stall.
A bowl of yellow jelly, eaten with relish.
The next morning, I had an important calculus class. The classroom was large and three classes of students were listening together. I couldn’t see the blackboard from the back row, so I had to get up early and rush to the classroom to grab a seat. When I was leaving, Zhang Yaoyao leaned out of bed and shouted, “Qinqin, save a seat for me! I’ll bring you breakfast!”
“I know.”
There was a basic law class in the afternoon. There were four girls in the dormitory, but only Zhang Lan and I went to class. The rest of us curled up in the dormitory and slept. I held my chin and stared at the blackboard in a daze, taking notes absentmindedly, and my thoughts had already flown away. Thinking about being with Nan Fang in the room of Liyuan Hotel last night, I was excited and confused. The touch of skin to skin made me yearn for it, and my heart trembled slightly, as if we completely owned each other, with no distance between our souls and bodies. But the education I received since childhood told me that this was not what a good student should do, and I felt conflicted.
After class, I hurried back to the dormitory. As soon as I stepped into the door, I heard Zhang Yaoyao say, "Wait! She's back." She turned sideways and smiled at me, then handed me the microphone.
"Quanqiu" means the south.
"What a coincidence, I just got back from get out of class."
"I'm at the gate of your school. If you don't have classes in the evening, let's go out for dinner and take a walk."
"Okay, I'll go downstairs right away."
I simply packed my bag, stuffed my parasol in it, and went out.
The air was hot and stuffy. Nanfang and I walked side by side on the old street of Ciqikou in the west of the city, passing through the bustling crowd amid the hawking sounds from all directions. Nanfang held a parasol, and I held his arm affectionately. The street was filled with the elegant scent of sandalwood, as if we were in the prosperity of a thousand years ago.
Nanfang told me that there was an old photo in his grandfather’s photo album, which was taken in this ancient town. The photo showed him wearing a military uniform and looking heroic.
What attracted Nanfang the most were the small shops with their own characteristics on the street. There were all kinds of small gadgets, calligraphy and paintings, ornaments, toys, etc., which were very exquisite and antique, and had the charm of the past. Walking on the small street, the peaceful charm of the ancient town came to the face. Nanfang bought several well-made snuff bottles, "Quilt, pick one."
I chose the one with the pattern of fishing alone in the cold river and asked, "Buy so many?"
"I'll take the rest back and give them to my roommates. I guess that Hong Kong guy will also like rare little things." His smile blossomed in the afterglow of the setting sun, his white teeth slightly exposed, and he looked handsome.
At dinner time, we chose a restaurant by the river and ordered the famous Maoxuewang here. We enjoyed the meal very much. After dinner, we took a taxi to Huanyi Cinema on the upper floor of Jiefangbei Metropolitan to watch a movie. At that time, the American blockbuster Pearl Harbor was showing. The moviegoers that night were all young men and women dressed fashionably. The small theater was like a casual couple party drinking Coke and chewing popcorn.
May Day is coming, and I packed my things from school and went home. Fortunately, my home is in Jiaochangkou, very close to Jiefangbei Commercial Street. Nan Fang also moved his residence from Liyuan Hotel to Yangtze Island Hotel.
I kept my mother's warning to me in my senior year of high school in mind. I didn't tell my family about Nan Fang's arrival. I went out to date Nan Fang every day without telling my family. My father was often busy with business outside and stayed at home for a short time. He rarely disciplined me. My mother and grandmother noticed it. One night after dinner, when I was about to go out, my grandmother asked with a smile, "Qin Er, are you going out to date your classmates?"
“Yeah, yeah,” I murmured softly while putting on my shoes.
My mother just looked at me silently without saying a word.
We went shopping together, and met under the electronic screen at the entrance of the Metropolitan. Nanfang was quite patient with me shopping in the mall. Whenever he saw me interested in trying something, he would ask the waiter to get the right number. I would always wave my hand and say, "Just looking." He would usually smile and say, "Try it if you like it." On the way, he went downstairs to buy me a drink. When I was trying on clothes, Nanfang stood by with two drinks and waited patiently. I was afraid that he would be annoying. I heard that men don't like shopping, especially when they are shopping with women, because they will fall asleep after walking for a while. But he always looks energetic. Maybe he is really young and energetic, and he can never use up all his energy.
We bought some clothes and accessories at Pacific Department Store. Nan Fang gave me a set of Hallo Kitty pajamas made in Japan, and I bought two sets of Nike couple outfits, a white V-neck T-shirt, dark blue sweatpants, and running shoes. I put them on immediately and each wore an orange cap. Walking on the pedestrian street of Jiefangbei, we looked very cool, and passers-by turned their heads to look at us. When we were tired from playing, we went to Haochi Street to eat hot and sour noodles and Wu Chao Shou.
I understand that we are spending money from our families, but what's wrong with that? They are willing to give. Parents cannot give their children more, so they have to compensate with money. This is common in today's society. I checked the bank card my father gave me, and it was tens of thousands of yuan, enough to spend, and I don't spend lavishly on weekdays. This kind of life is really easy and comfortable! Although it was only a few days, it was enough for me to remember for a lifetime.
I came home late at night, and it was already 11:30. I changed my shoes and went upstairs quietly. There was a dim light in the room, and my mother was standing at the window waiting for me. The house was quiet, and it was obvious that my father had not come back yet.
"Qinqin, you've been running outside quite frequently in recent days," my mother sat down and smiled at me, but she did not look relaxed.
"Yeah, I'm hanging out with my classmates."
"Which students?"
"My roommates are Yaoyao and Zhang Lan." I wasn't nervous either. When I was in high school, I had already started to figure out how to act in front of my parents.
"Where are a group of girls going to play?" the mother asked calmly.
"Shopping, watching movies, and strolling along Nanbin Road. There are female classmates and boys from the department." Of course, we have to talk about male classmates. How can girls of such old age hang out together every day
"Oh. Don't play too late next time." Mother didn't ask any more questions.
"Yeah." I answered her while changing into my pajamas.
My mother noticed the new sportswear I bought today, nodded, and said, "Wow! When did my little girl start exercising like this?"
"It's comfortable. It's uncomfortable to wear a corset and short skirt every day." I answered her while going downstairs to take a shower.
"If you have a boyfriend, remember to bring him back to meet us!" After a while, the mother said this.
I didn't say anything, thinking, I'm afraid I'll scare you if I bring it back.
May 5th of that year was a memorable day for Zhao Qinqin.
That night, we had our first official "intimate contact" at the Yangtze Island Hotel. Zhao Qinqin no longer wanted to be a good kid. The weather was very hot and humid, but it did not prevent us from enjoying hot pot and iced Shancheng beer at Waipo Bridge.
A little bit of alcohol is enough to make boys of that age secrete excess male hormones. I hugged Nanfang's hot body and whispered to him in the air-conditioned room. We talked about our college life and recalled the warm childhood on the hillside full of gardenias. I liked the feeling at that time, with my face against his chest and listening to his heartbeat.
When he was excited, he hugged my shoulders tightly, lowered his head, and his hot lips just touched and joined with my lips gently. I wanted to tilt my head back, but I was held by his hands around my waist. Suddenly, he put the soft tip of his tongue into my mouth, sometimes swirling up and down and left and right, sometimes circling my tongue rhythmically, licking and kissing in circles, unscrupulously. His snort became heavier and his breathing became rapid. I responded to him enthusiastically and hugged him tightly, unwilling to let go. He bit my ear and whispered, "Qianqin, what are you thinking about?"
"I'm thinking that Zhao Qinqin is no longer a good kid."
He smiled, took off his pajamas, and began to kiss more intensely. He then used his tongue to gently nibble my earlobes, neck, back, and breasts. I could feel his nervousness, his hands trembling slightly, and he was very careful. He said he was afraid of hurting me. I let myself follow my feelings, reaching out to gently touch his flower bud, and carefully moving it... .
Mandarin ducks embrace each other and play in the water, while phoenixes and cranes fly through the flowers. They are shy and afraid of rain, and they are so charming. The chirping of orioles never leaves my ears. They spit out sweet words, and smile and stick out their tongues. Their willow waists are silently full of spring, and their cherry lips are slightly panting. Their eyes are hazy, and their sweat leaves fragrance on their jade beads. Their breasts are rippling, and the dew drops on their peony hearts...
The plump and firm buds bloom into gorgeous flowers of youth.
Nan Fang said that he would protect me for the rest of his life. The vows of love that night sounded so beautiful. I really want to lean on each other like this for the rest of my life. (To be continued)
