Three Combs: Chapter 25.1


When one sense is lost, the other senses will naturally heighten.

Like now.

The other party’s hot breath slowly swept past her eyebrows until it finally stopped at Jiang Tiao’s nose.

The tip of her nose felt a slight chill.

He is standing dangerously close to her.

The man’s body is shrouded in darkness. His knees trapped her thighs together, leaving no gaps.

His breath grew heavier and heavier like a sniffing hound that can swallow her at any time.

Jiang Tiao bit her lips, her heart beating wildly unable to keep herself from trembling.

There are some fear and some nervousness. What should she do? Run? Push him away?

Fu Ting Chuan didn’t move for a long time.

The atmosphere is surrounded by a deathly silence. No one breathed.

The man’s hand is tightly closed into a fist on the wall, his knuckles cracking. He seemed to be trying to restrain himself.

The mood gradually eased. Jiang Tiao involuntarily called out to him, “Mr. Fu…..”

“En.” Fu Ting Chuan was able to gain some alertness after he heard her voice.

His deep and husky voice made her heart tremble.

Jiang Tiao hesitated, “Isn’t this too fast….”

He seemed to agree with this statement, while the cold air flowed in. When Jiang Tiao came to her senses, her body immediately stiffened.

His nose had moved to her earlobe.

“What can be considered not too fast?” He asked, his hot breath tickling that area.

The ear is a sensitive and stimulating point for most women.

Jiang Tiao was unable to control her tone, “For example….first holding hands, then hug, then kiss, step by step….”

Her voice gradually falters…..

So uncertain, Jiang Tiao complained. She really is a very boring traditional woman.

Hold hands?

…...Heh.

In the shadows, Fu Ting Chuan arched his lips. To him, holding hands are harder than kissing.

Fine. Since the lady says she wants to hold hands first, then they will hold hands first.

Their bodies immediately separated. The only part that is still connected is his hand on her wrist.

Fu Ting Chuan turned on the lights, brightening the room.

Jiang Tiao seemed to be reborn while she secretly take a deep breath. Fu Ting Chuan stared down at her, his Adam’s apple visibly moving.

He didn’t drink water so he feels thirsty and uncomfortable.

His thumb involuntarily rubs the inside of her wrist. The delicate veins, the fragile tendon, the slim bone….and the woman’s warm and soft skin…. are all possessed by him. He can’t seem to let go.

He even….

Wants to touch it forever.

The strange caresses made Jiang Tiao somewhat uncomfortable but when she thought better of it, she has some understanding.

Maybe this is how someone expresses their affection through body language.

“Doesn’t this count as holding hands?” Fu Ting Chuan feigned ignorance.

Jiang Tiao was still in a daze by their close contact, “Yes...it counts.”

Fu Ting Chuan no longer says anything. He raised her hand, lowered his lips, and lightly kissed it.

Jiang Tiao’s fingertips trembled as she looks up at him incredulously.

In her view, this is how a man shows how much he extremely cherishes a woman.

It’s not that she feels self-conscious about how Fu Ting Chuan treats her. It has only been a few days since they started their relationship and the feelings between them are so heavy.

In Western societies, a gentleman kisses a woman’s hand to show respect.

But with Fu Ting Chuan, it is a brand, a declaration stating his claim.

Only she is not aware of it for the time being.

Fu Ting Chuan let go of Jiang Tiao. He picked up the glass of water next to him and noticed that the boiling water has cooled down to a warm temperature. Turns out quite some time has passed.

He loosened his tie and chug it down, trying to pacify his desire.

**

The two sat in the room in silence.

They’ve only just met and barely got to know each other. Now that they are face to face, they don’t know what to say.

Awkward and helpless.

Jiang Tiao sat in front of the desk and started to play Miracle Nikki which her roommate recommended.

However, her head is uneasy so all her outfits are A grade.

Fu Ting Chuan is sitting by the bed, flipping through a business magazine with fascination.

At any rate, she is already his girlfriend so she might as well act like one. Jiang Tiao decided to ask him about his itinerary, “When are you leaving?”

Fu Ting Chuan slightly raised his eyes to her and laugh in spite of himself, “What, want me to quickly leave?”

Jiang Tiao shook her head, “No, of course not. I’m only asking, afraid that it is delaying your work.”

“My flight leaves at 6:30 in the evening.” Fu Ting Chuan slammed the magazine shit and put it on the nightstand, “What time is it?”

Jiang Tiao checked the time on her home screen, “Around 12 o’clock. It’s still early.”

“En.” Fu Ting Chuan lifts up the white bedding, “I ’m going to rest.”

“Okay.” Jiang tiao stared at her shoes in a daze. He must be very tired, and she can’t do anything for him.

After Fu Ting Chuan pulled out the quilt, he sat on the bed for a while and fiddled with his phone. He is probably setting an alarm.

He put the phone back to the side and look at the woman who is still in a daze, “Jiang Tiao.”

Jiang Tiao came back to her senses, “Here. What is it?”

Realizing that Fu Ting Chuan wants to sleep, she lowered her voice a few decibels, “Sleep tight. I promise I won’t make a sound.”

Fu Ting Chuan stayed in the same position and called out to her once again, “Jiang Tiao, come and accompany me for a nap.”

Jiang Tiao, “.....” Ah?

“Come.”

Jiang Tiao thought of multiple other possibilities. Maybe he wants….. “You want me to sit by your side and watch you sleep? Okay.”

“No. I want you to lie next to me.” He patted the empty space by his side which is big enough to fit a family of five.

Lie down! Lie down on the bed? Jiang Tiao’s bulging eyes fully explained her surprise.

“Don’t worry. It’s only sleeping.” Fu Ting Chuan soothed. His voice is warm, with no hidden intentions like an innocent deer.

But it’s not the same when a woman hears it! Male god, so you know what you said sounds like you are trying to seduce an ignorant girl? Also those “I won’t go into the covers” and “I won’t move my hands when sleeping” may be different approaches but it will all lead to the same result!

Jiang Tiao internally scratched her head. She is caught in a bind.
Although she would on a daily basis thirst over Fu Ting Chuan in her fan account, when he is standing in front of her, she simply can’t do it.

After all, even though she is infatuated with him, she still has her guard up like any ordinary woman.

She is looking forward to forming a deeper relationship with this man….but she is also afraid. She worries that everything in front of her is surreal. She is afraid that she will be caught up in her dreams and lower her guard. Eventually, when she gives him her all, it will not be cherished.

She is afraid that this feeling, like a storm, will come quickly and leave at the same speed. If she doesn’t hold on to it tightly, it will be gone.

Fu Ting Chuan raised a brow, “You’re scared of me?”

Jiang Tiao, “No, I…” She let out a sigh, “Fine. It’s nothing. I’ll accompany you to sleep.”
