Arc 1: Escaped Woman x Escaped from Marriage – 04

Arms Stuck on Two Soft and Hot Masses

Although the system is very unreasonable, Ke Li was fortunate enough to ask, “Is it really only when I fall in love with the woman that I can accomplish the task?”

  [Yes.]

  Ke Li also wants to complete her task soon and said, “Then I will try.”

  Doudou was happy: [Host refueling.]1 Same pun from the last chapter but using the second meaning. 1st meaning – “come on, cheer up” or cheering on Ke Li. 2nd meaning – she’s “refueling” her oil to be at max capacity (fattest) – refueling on oil will fill you up with energy and then you can overcome difficulties.

  After checking her makeup, she went to Shi Jian’s room with a worried face.

  Shi Jian was reading a book, she was very surprised to see Ke Li. She hurriedly put away her book and said, “Sister Qu.”

  Ke Li acts out her performance, her eyebrows were low, and she looked uneasy. “Sister, can we sleep together?”

  Shi Jian was stunned, she’s used to being alone. She’s not used to sleeping with others and asked, “What’s the matter?”

  Ke Li clutched her clothes into a wrinkle and answered with embarrassment, “It feels cold at night.” 

  Shi Jian wanted to say that since she was cold, add a quilt, but it felt too personal for her to say.

  Ke Li happily climbed onto her bed but told herself to calm down. Shi Jian went to bed immediately after she blew the candle. 

  The two were lying stiffly in bed, separated by a large distance. Ke Li was very unaccustomed due to being single since she was a fetus. She felt that the usual negligible sounds were infinitely magnified at this moment. She didn’t even dare move her body.

  Shi Jian was also uncomfortable, but she didn’t like to show it. Besides, it was her bed and it was more natural once she laid down for a while. 

  Half an hour later, Doudou sees Ke Li made no moves and encouraged her by saying: [Host, you and the female owner needs to be closer, otherwise the intimacy and affection won’t change.]

  ”Standing and talking without backache.”2 It’s a Chinese proverb mentioned in previous chapters – talking and standing with no backache is similar to easier said than done.

  In fact, Ke Li is very disdainful. If love can be measured by intimacy and affection, then it’s not true love. She can only bow under the eaves.3 Bowing under the eaves – cultural joke – many homes in the past were relatively short, so people would have to bow their heads, or they would hit the eaves. Which would you choose? Of course, to adapt to your environment and lower your head. Don’t lose more because of the inconvenience of a small thing. Bowing, she just wants to finish the task now. 

  She slowly rolled over and looked at the soft contours of Shi Jian’s face. Building up courage, she went to pull Shi Jian’s arm. But before she could, she felt embarrassed, she wanted to be intimate but wasn’t daring.

  Doudou looked anxious and said: [Host, don’t be a pussy. Just go.]

  ”…” Ke Li dallied for a long time and guessed that Shi Jian was asleep by now. Her neck was stretched like a knife and shrank like a knife.4 Stretching a knife, shrinking a knife / stretching the neck is death, shrinking the neck is dead. It means that the results are the same no matter which decision is chosen, and there’s no need to worry too much. It’s better to embrace now, then she will explain tomorrow.
