The reaction was too big, so big that Xu Jingyi couldn't handle it.
She had only touched Lin Ruoyan's hand slightly, which was nothing compared to how she usually interacted with people.
But Lin Ruoyan was so flustered that she dropped her water glass.
And that person, whose ears were already red, was still explaining seriously, "Didn't catch it, did I scare you, Sister-in-law?"
Xu Jingyi mumbled a vague "hmm," not knowing if she had heard anything, and not knowing if she was actually scared. Anyway, she didn't dare to make any more moves after that, and ate her meal quietly like a quail.
This was too pure. If she reacted so strongly to just this, then she… probably didn't know much about Matters of the Boudoir. Then it would be easier for her to control the situation. She could do as she pleased, and even if she went a little overboard, it probably wouldn't matter. Maybe she didn't even know how things were supposed to go in bed.
The two didn't talk much after that. Xu Jingyi was making little calculations in her heart, while Lin Ruoyan didn't dare to look at her.
Xu Jingyi had always been quite good to her. Except for not letting her investigate her brother's affairs, she was considerate in every other way. She really treated her like family. Just now, she had only coughed, and Xu Jingyi had handed her water.
She couldn't believe her reaction – just because the other person accidentally brushed her hand.
Her lower abdomen even felt a little weak. That's why, after the cup fell, she had to lean on the table, afraid of being seen by the other person.
It was precisely because Xu Jingyi treated her so well that she was so conflicted. Xu Jingyi treated her like family, but she was gradually getting lost in it. If she hadn't suspected Xu Jingyi of being her brother's murderer, she didn't know what kind of quagmire she would be hopelessly mired in now.
Even though she suspected Xu Jingyi might be her brother's murderer, she was still drawn in by Xu Jingyi's kindness, becoming "scheming."
After finishing the meal, each with their own thoughts, they went home together. Xu Jingyi said she hadn't driven today, so she wanted to ride back with Lin Ruoyan.
Lin Ruoyan didn't have any objections, pretending not to notice Xu Jingyi's driver standing nearby, who smiled and opened the car door, inviting Xu Jingyi to get in.
They had eaten Japanese food in the evening and had some rice wine. The alcohol content wasn't high; they were just a little tipsy now. The car was quiet. Xu Jingyi's breathing was a little heavy. Lin Ruoyan secretly looked at her and found that she had already leaned her head against the car and closed her eyes.
She didn't want to talk much, just wanted to maintain the current situation and go home. So, when she saw that the other person had closed her eyes to rest, she closed her eyes too.
The time wasn't too late, so there were still quite a few cars on the road. The driver was going slow to be safe. Lin Ruoyan was drowsy, almost asleep, when the car suddenly swerved sharply, causing Xu Jingyi's body to lurch.
"Ah…" Xu Jingyi's scream echoed in the car. She hadn't expected to be thrown around like that while sitting peacefully.
"Mmph…" Lin Ruoyan groaned, her back hitting the car door, and her head also bumped hard.
This stretch of road was relatively clear, and the car was going faster. The car in front suddenly changed lanes, forcing the driver to jerk the steering wheel.
By the time they reacted, Xu Jingyi had been thrown onto Lin Ruoyan's thighs, and Lin Ruoyan's hands were on Xu Jingyi's back. Xu Jingyi's hands had also instinctively wrapped around Lin Ruoyan's waist.
Both had acted instinctively in the panic. It wasn't until the car was driving normally again that they realized how awkward their positions were.
"I'm so sorry, Madam, Miss. I'll drive slower, and this definitely won't happen again." The driver was sweating, apologizing while driving.
He had initially thought something might be happening between the two, but then realized they didn't seem to have anything going on.
Anyway, he couldn't tell what was real and what wasn't. Now, because of his mistake, the two of them had been thrown together. Would he be fired tomorrow?
"It's okay, just keep driving carefully." Xu Jingyi reacted first. The car's swaying was too violent, and Lin Ruoyan had been thrown against the door. Xu Jingyi was pressed against her. After she finished speaking, she nonchalantly straightened up, supporting herself on the door.
She could feel Lin Ruoyan's stiff body. Even after sitting up, she was still embarrassed. She had hugged her a little too tightly in the heat of the moment, and perhaps the other person was also tense, so all of her muscles were stiff. When she was hugging her, she could feel that the muscles around her waist were very tight.
She suddenly remembered what her friend had said in the afternoon, "The stamina of a Young Wolfdog, tsk tsk…"
Judging from the feel just now, Lin Ruoyan's stamina should be good. It was all muscle. She had touched her several times in the panic just now, and it felt pretty good.
Her mind was a mess, but Lin Ruoyan didn't even dare to breathe deeply.
Xu Jingyi's touches were incredibly clear to her. From the front to the back, she had almost touched her entire abdomen, making her hold her breath. It wasn't until Xu Jingyi had moved away that she could breathe again.
But she didn't dare to breathe deeply, only small, shallow breaths. As a result, the more she held her breath, the more intense it became.
"Are you alright?" After calming down, Xu Jingyi patted her chest, pretending to be scared, and then grabbed Lin Ruoyan's arm warmly, asking.
Lin Ruoyan: "I'm fine, Sister-in-law, are you okay?"
