A L*st at First Sight (Lily Futa) - Chapter 11
When Xiao Li came to knock on the door, Liu Yuelan first said something to the person on the other side of the computer, then took off her earphones and opened the door.
“Miss Liu, are you coming to eat with us? Where’s Sister Lin?”
Liu Yuelan said softly, “You guys go ahead. I’m in a meeting right now. I’ll eat by myself later.”
“Okay,” Xiao Li also lowered her voice. “Do you want me to bring something for you?” She poked her head in and only saw a narrow table against the wall with a computer and documents on it. She didn’t see Yu Qianlin.
“No need, thank you.”
Xiao Li gave an OK gesture and left first.
Liu Yuelan continued her online meeting with the overseas partner. The long meeting finally came to an end. She sincerely welcomed the other party’s upcoming trip to China and promised to treat them well. The other party also happily expressed their anticipation for meeting in person. Both sides ended the online meeting on a pleasant note.
After giving some final instructions to her colleagues about details that needed confirmation on Monday, Liu Yuelan finally finished her work. She leaned back in her chair and let out a sigh of relief. Only then did she check the time and realize the meeting had unknowingly lasted three hours. She instantly felt even more exhausted.
The chair in the small hotel was very hard. Sitting for so long had made her back and waist sore. She stood up, stretched, and moved her body around.
As she stretched, she noticed that her skin felt uncomfortable. It seemed like she hadn’t showered after sweating so much from climbing the mountain. The more she thought about it, the more unbearable it became. She grabbed her pajamas and went to the bathroom.
When the room door was pushed open, Liu Yuelan was just blow-drying her hair. From the corner of her eye, she saw someone enter. She turned her head and met Yu Qianlin’s eyes directly. The other woman was still holding a bag in her hand.
Yu Qianlin instinctively avoided her gaze. In her panic, her eyes first landed on Liu Yuelan’s fair, slender neck, then on the waist muscles exposed because she had raised her arms, and finally on the floor. She closed the door and entered the room.
As she passed Liu Yuelan, the scent of shampoo and body wash mixed with the faint fragrance of a woman lingered at the tip of her nose, making her mind go blank for a moment.
Liu Yuelan only glanced at her before continuing to dry her hair. Once it was mostly dry, she went to the bathroom to tidy up. When she came out again, she had already reapplied her makeup and fixed her hair. As she was packing up her computer, her stomach growled twice.
Oh right, she hadn’t eaten anything for so long. First mountain climbing, then the meeting — both physical and mental energy had been heavily consumed. The intense hunger hit her, and she could no longer endure it. She quickly put her computer and documents into her bag.
At that moment, the aroma of food wafted over, and a box of fried noodles was placed on the table in front of her.
After taking the food out of the bag and setting it down, Yu Qianlin went back without saying a word.
Liu Yuelan pretended not to notice. She zipped up her bag, picked up her phone to check her messages, and glanced at the time, debating whether to go out to eat directly or first have some snacks to tide her over until the evening gathering.
“Fried noodles. Eat it.”
Yu Qianlin’s voice came from behind, carrying no emotional fluctuation. Liu Yuelan unzipped her bag again, threw a few pieces of clothing onto the bed, and took out a sun umbrella. “Who knows if you really want me to eat it or if you’re just being polite? Besides, I don’t need it.”
With that, she went to the side of the bed, took off her pajamas, changed into the clothes she would wear out, and neatly picked up her belongings before heading out. The moment she closed the door, she felt extremely satisfied and snorted loudly at the door, as if directing it at Yu Qianlin.
Inside the room, Yu Qianlin was momentarily at a loss because of her rare coldness, then got hit by her retort. This seemed to be the first time she had spoken to her like this.
While lost in thought, she was startled by the patch of flawless white back in front of her and quickly lowered her head and closed her eyes. Her heart pounded heavily. The sound of clothes rustling became even clearer in her ears, making every second feel like a year.
Only after hearing the sound of the door closing did she slowly open her eyes. She forcefully calmed her breathing. Once she finally returned to normal, she looked up and saw the pajamas and pants casually left on the opposite bed.
She really wanted to cover them with the quilt so she wouldn’t see them and wouldn’t be bothered, but it was only a thought. What she could do was lie on the bed facing the wall, take out her phone, and find a horror movie to distract herself.
When it was time for the evening gathering, they had rented two barbecue grills and utensils, bought some ingredients, and found a large open area provided by the hotel to set everything up. Even lighting the fire and burning the charcoal took quite a while. In the end, they had to ask the owner for help to get it going.
Some people shared the ready-made food they had brought. Children played with water guns nearby. Liu Yuelan took Xiao C and a few others to the shop to buy drinks. There wasn’t any good alcohol, so they ended up selecting a bunch of beer and some ice, then carried everything back together.
She held a can of ice-cold beer in her hand and let Xiao C greet everyone while she walked leisurely behind, taking small sips. Although the sun had already set, going back and forth had still made her a bit hot. One mouthful of ice-cold beer felt extremely refreshing.
She pressed the beer can against her face to cool down and casually watched the lively crowd. Then she saw Yu Qianlin, who had arrived late. After greeting everyone, Yu Qianlin took over the barbecue duty. With a fan in one hand and skillfully flipping and seasoning with the other, the first plate of barbecue was soon ready. She had people serve it to everyone first, then started a new round.
As the sky grew darker, the colored lights around the open area turned on, creating a colorful and atmospheric scene. Behind them, a group of people were playing games with laughter and cheers. Children ran around chasing each other. Occasionally someone who lost a game would sing, and Yu Qianlin would hum along with a couple of lines.
Liu Yuelan’s voice remained distinctly audible amid the noisy crowd. She cheered, laughed loudly, and even downed a whole bottle of beer amid everyone’s applause.
Several people came over midway wanting to take over from Yu Qianlin, but she refused them with various excuses, telling them to enjoy themselves.
“Master, are there any vegetarian dishes left? Sister Liu wants something light.” Xiao C ran over, staring at the grill and the ingredients below.
Yu Qianlin wiped her sweat with a towel and looked at him coldly. When Xiao C realized, he asked nervously, “Master, are you tired? Why don’t you grill these and go rest?”
Yu Qianlin looked down at the ingredients he handed over, took an empty plate, and put all the already-grilled food on it. Seeing this, Xiao C quickly arranged the ingredients he had picked onto the grill. Before he could say thank you, Yu Qianlin had already picked up the plate of food, stood up, grabbed another can of beer, and left, leaving him only with her back and an emotionless sentence.
“If you want to show off, do it yourself.”
Ignoring the wails and pleas for help behind her, she picked an inconspicuous corner, stacked a few bricks, placed the food on top, and sat directly on the ground without any fuss. She ate a few skewers of meat, took a few sips of beer, then propped her hands on the ground and looked up at the sky. She discovered there were many stars tonight, twinkling brightly, and the moon was especially luminous. At this hour, the temperature on the mountain had dropped, and there was a gentle breeze. She stayed there alone in quiet peace.
When she sensed the crowd behind her noisily preparing to disperse, she finished the last sip of her beer, picked up her things, and stood up. She walked to the grill area to help clean up the mess.
Xiao Li was struggling to help Liu Yuelan stand up. She called out to her, “Sister Lin, come help!”
She walked over, thinking someone was drunk. Only when she got closer did she realize it was Liu Yuelan. The idea of reaching out disappeared.
“Sister Lin, Miss Liu is drunk. Hurry and take her back to the room. I still have to go pay,” Xiao Li said while panting.
“I’ll go pay. You take her back.”
“Aiya, I can’t move her. I have no strength left.” Seeing Xiao Li’s arm lose strength and Liu Yuelan about to fall, Yu Qianlin’s heart jumped. She quickly stepped forward and caught her, her arms suddenly filled with soft, warm jade.
She had only touched Liu Yuelan’s waist at the very beginning. After that, she only held her loosely, not daring to touch her again. But the woman kept burrowing into her arms, making her break out in a sweat.
Xiao Li shook her arms. “Aiya, I’m exhausted. Alright, you two go first. We’ll clean up here.”
Once Xiao Li walked far away, Yu Qianlin awkwardly pushed Liu Yuelan’s shoulder with her fingers. “Hey, can you walk?”
She held the other woman’s shoulders and tried to make her stand straight. Liu Yuelan stood with her eyes closed for a few seconds. The moment Yu Qianlin loosened her hands and hadn’t had time to feel relieved, the woman’s legs went soft and she started falling to the side. Yu Qianlin reacted quickly, grabbing her shoulders and pulling her back. Her heart raced with lingering fear.
Liu Yuelan frowned uncomfortably. She hooked her arms around Yu Qianlin’s neck, her body weak and limp, putting all her weight on her.
Yu Qianlin lowered her head and looked at the woman so close in her arms. The other woman’s warm breath hit her neck, burning hot as if scalding her. Besides the smell of alcohol, there was also a faint fragrance on the woman, different from before. Unconsciously, she lowered her head to smell it.
“Clang!”
The loud noise from behind startled her back to her senses. The woman in her arms also shrank back in fright. She subconsciously patted Liu Yuelan’s shoulder to comfort her and turned to look. A stack of plates had toppled over, and a few people were picking them up one by one.
When she turned back, she met a pair of hazy eyes. Her breathing stopped, her whole body stiffened, and her hand movements halted. She swallowed involuntarily.
After waiting like this for a few minutes, Yu Qianlin’s whole body ached from the strain, but Liu Yuelan kept the same posture, looking at her without saying a word. She slowly moved her body and asked in a low voice, “Have you sobered up? Can you walk by yourself?”
Liu Yuelan blinked slowly, her reaction delayed. Her expression changed from dazed to the usual daytime coldness. She pushed Yu Qianlin away and took two steps forward by herself.
Yu Qianlin’s arms suddenly felt empty. Her hands, which had been holding her, hadn’t even lowered yet when she quickly reached out again to support Liu Yuelan, who was about to fall.
Most people around had already left. Not wanting to waste any more time here with her, Yu Qianlin simply hooked her arm under Liu Yuelan’s knees and carried her on her back, striding toward the hotel.
After only a few steps, a soft complaint came from beside her ear, “Who asked you to carry me? I don’t want it.”
The voice was soft and a little slurred. Yu Qianlin moved her neck farther away. “Xiao Li told me to send you back.”
After waiting a few more minutes, the person behind leaned close to her ear again. “Back where?”
Yu Qianlin used force to lift her higher, taking the chance to move her head farther away, and didn’t speak again.
Finally inside the room, she swiped the card and turned on the light. Liu Yuelan had already fallen asleep, but was suddenly startled by the light. She uncomfortably buried her head into Yu Qianlin’s shoulder.
As soon as Yu Qianlin placed her on the bed, Liu Yuelan fell over with the momentum. Yu Qianlin stood up and looked back, seeing that her head had landed right against the edge of the wall. Her heart jumped with fear again. Luckily it hadn’t hit her head.
She bent down, wanting to straighten the person. Her hands were already stretched out, but she didn’t know where to touch. She felt both conflicted and hot with anxiety, breaking out in another sweat. She turned on the air conditioner and stood under the vent for a long time until the sweat cooled. Then she walked back to Liu Yuelan’s bed.
She stood with her hands on her hips and looked for a while, then picked up the quilt from both sides and wrapped the person in it. She turned her body upright, placed her head on the pillow, sat back on her own bed, and watched for a while. Worried she might get too hot, she lifted one side of the quilt.
That was when she saw the pajamas underneath her body. She reached out and tugged gently a few times, but they were pressed down tightly. After trying several directions and failing to pull them free, she was afraid of waking her and gave up. She sat on the floor leaning against the bed to rest for a while, then quietly washed up in the bathroom. After coming out, she turned off all the lights, felt her way over in the dark, turned on the bedside lamp, and her gaze unintentionally fell on Liu Yuelan’s sleeping face.
Under the dim yellow light, her features looked a little blurred. Yu Qianlin couldn’t help leaning over the edge of her bed, wanting to see more clearly.
This was the first time she could look at the woman in front of her as much as she wanted. In the past, her gaze had never dared to linger on Liu Yuelan for too long, afraid that if she was discovered, she would face another round of unrestrained teasing.
Now that Liu Yuelan was asleep, her eyes could finally stay on the other woman’s face for longer. The smooth forehead, the fine tail of the eyebrows, the high nose bridge, the thin lips painted with an indescribable shade of lipstick that made the lip shape look beautiful and tempting.
The corners of her lips were often slightly upturned. When she spoke then, her words were warm, driving her crazy, making her ashamed and angry, making her heart flutter… When she wasn’t smiling, they would press into a straight line, and her words would be cold and piercing, leaving her speechless.
Now that she was asleep, were these lips cold or warm? Perhaps sweet? Or maybe carrying a hint of alcohol?
Thinking this, Yu Qianlin’s body slowly leaned forward while supporting herself on the bed. Her eyes fixed on those lips, getting closer and closer to Liu Yuelan’s face.
3cm, 2cm, 1cm…
Yu Qianlin could even feel the woman’s breath on her face. The arm supporting her on the bed trembled slightly. She closed her eyes and lowered her head to kiss.
Yu Qianlin’s lips landed on the strands of hair hanging over the edge of the bed. She took a deep breath through her nose, followed the scent, and nuzzled near the woman’s neck. She didn’t dare get any closer. She turned her face sideways, rested it on her hair, and gently sniffed her body scent.
The thing between her legs had already started swelling while she stared at Liu Yuelan. By now it was painfully hard. Yet Yu Qianlin was in no hurry this time. She let it strain fully against her pants, enjoying the aching sensation. Her right hand carefully grasped a few strands of hair and rubbed them.
Her cheek gently rubbed against her hair. Her eyes looked at her neck as she stuck out her tongue and licked. Even though there was still distance between them, Yu Qianlin still let out a soft, satisfied gasp.
The thing between her legs could no longer hold back. She unzipped her pants, pulled down her underwear, and her stiff cock sprang out, slapping against the side of the bed. Her left hand stroked the shaft and directly began rubbing the head. Her nose inhaled Liu Yuelan’s body scent forcefully while her right hand gripped her hair tightly.
Her breathing grew more and more rapid. She called “Ah Lan” over and over in her heart. Her hand movements became heavier and faster. Occasionally it hurt, but she didn’t care and showed no mercy. The fluid leaking from the tip of her cock wet her palm. The entire shaft became slippery, making wet, squelching sounds with her movements.
“Ah Lan… Ah Lan…”
At some point she started moaning out loud, followed by a muffled groan. Spurts of fluid shot out. Although she had anticipated it and tried to block it with her palm, a lot still leaked through the gaps onto the floor.
She closed her eyes and tried her best to steady her breathing to calm herself. Even so, her body couldn’t help trembling a few times.
After a long while, her body began to relax. She carefully lifted herself from the woman’s hair. When she saw Liu Yuelan’s face again, her heart was filled with unprecedented guilt and shame.
Fantasizing about someone behind their back was one thing. Fantasizing about them while they were sleeping right beside you was another. Only now did she feel afraid. If at any moment during what had just happened Liu Yuelan had woken up and seen this scene, what would her reaction be?
Yu Qianlin didn’t dare think about it. After the fear came heartache.
She had clearly tried so hard to stay away from Liu Yuelan, even resorting to harsh words to make her angry. The goal had been achieved, so why had she done something like this to her again?
Knowing she would get hurt, why did she keep rushing forward again and again? Could she really not escape? Why was heaven treating her like this? Why was she born this way?
Tears fell from Yu Qianlin’s eyes one by one. She sniffed. She couldn’t even remember the last time she had cried. Yet this time it came so suddenly and so embarrassingly.
Kneeling beside the bed while the other person slept, pants half-pulled down exposing her ugly cock, with her own cum on the floor — everything was so disgusting.
Holding back her tears, she grabbed a few tissues to clean herself and the floor, pulled up her pants, stood up, threw away the trash, took a jacket, turned off the lights, and quietly slipped out in the dark.
“Click.”
The sound of the door lock engaging was especially clear in the dark night. Inside the room, Liu Yuelan’s eyelids twitched. She slowly opened her eyes.
♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀♀
Liu Yuelan: Hmph. Not even giving me chopsticks clearly means she doesn’t want me to eat.
