TBWE Extra 9

Chu Li met those deep black eyes.

And saw her current appearance.

Her collar was loose, her lips swollen and red, the corners of her eyes glistening with faint physiological tears.

He walked toward her step by step, lifted his hand to loosen his tie, then removed his gold-rimmed glasses and casually tossed them to the floor.

“Clang—”

With that sound, the air suddenly grew heavy. Thick shadows silently spread from his feet, quickly devouring the light, shrouding the entire room in a half-lit, half-dark, eerie atmosphere.

Chu Li was almost suffocated by the oppressive aura of the two monsters, instinctively trying to break free from their grip.

The Xi Chu before the table did not release her. Instead, he circled her more tightly, raised his brows, glanced at the approaching figure, snorted lightly, and deepened his kiss.

His tongue swept over every inch of soft flesh. Her nasal cavity was filled with his breath, her own breathing completely taken over.

Chu Li constantly reminded herself that there was a third person in the room.

Her heart pounded in sync with the sticky, ambiguous sounds, making her soul tremble while also driving her nearly insane.

In a moment of distraction, cold fingers clamped onto her shoulder.

The immense force pulled her, breaking the deep kiss. That hand held Chu Li like an iron hoop and yanked her out.

She collided face-first into another chest, her cheek pressed against the firm fabric of a suit.

Before Chu Li could react, a hand caught her jaw, and a scorching breath fell over her.

There was no hesitation, and no questions.

A terrifying jealousy poured entirely into this kiss.

His tongue pried open her teeth and penetrated, twisting, licking, and sucking, as if erasing all traces and scents left by the first person.

Xi Chu’s lips and tongue swept through her mouth, devouring her saliva, as if he wanted to swallow her whole.

Chu Li was caught off guard, her mind blank, tilting her head back to passively endure this overwhelming kiss.

Behind her, the other body pressed closer.

Two almost identical auras enveloped her simultaneously.

Chu Li was sandwiched in the middle, pressed by two towering figures, like a thin sheet of paper—unable to breathe, unable to escape. In desperation, she flicked out a red thread.

The red thread wriggled, ready to pull them apart.

This action escalated the chaos; their struggle shifted from rivalry to instinctive possession.

The ceiling was coated with a flowing, pitch-black, viscous substance. Countless indescribable black tendrils emerged like terrifying creatures crawling from deep space, layer upon layer.

They instantly covered the floor, pushing aside the red thread, and quickly wrapped around Chu Li’s ankles and calves beneath her skirt.

Then they greedily clung to her, slimily licking every inch of her smooth skin, emitting faint sucking sounds.

The walls and glass windows were also covered in flowing shadows. The entire first floor was occupied by the tendrils, immersed in a dark, viscous atmosphere.

The tendrils belonged to two factions, like guardians fighting for territory, each trying to claim more ground.

A cool, wet sensation crept up her collar.

“Mm…!” Chu Li shivered, struggling to breathe under the pressure.

Amidst the chaotic struggle, the room seemed demolished; fragments were scattered everywhere.

The upholstered sofa was torn apart, and it wasn’t the only thing destroyed.

A few pearl buttons popped off and clattered on the floor.

Their white sheen stood out in the dim light. More tendrils wriggled up, occupying her arms, waist, and contours.

Chu Li let out a gasp, tears streaming continuously.

A warm tongue licked away the tears.

She forced her gaze, facing two faces almost pressed against hers. Their eyes were equally dark, staring fiercely at her flushed cheeks.

“Li Li, which one do you like?” Xi Chu asked, pressing his nose close.

“Me?” A scorching breath blew into her neck, a low, hoarse voice.

Chu Li felt as if this chaotic situation was driving her insane.

The red thread couldn’t pull apart the two statue-like bodies. She pushed hard, her voice trembling as she shouted, “All of you, get out—”

Her words abruptly stopped.

The black pupils flickered, a short, sharp scream escaped her throat. She bounced slightly as if struck by lightning, then both hands pressed her shoulders down, holding her firmly in place.

Chu Li collapsed, crying and scolding. “Get… all of you, get out!”

Her shouts were swallowed by the re-entwining lips and teeth. She couldn’t tell who was kissing her; the skin on the back of her neck was repeatedly bitten and sucked.

They were both impeccably dressed, staring at her flushed cheeks, desire overflowing from their eyes.

Nearby, two tendrils were fighting over the most important territory.

In the narrow area, they immediately sensed the other’s presence, harshly repelling, squeezing, and colliding, competing for every inch.

Each wanted to completely drive the other away.

The two monstrous voices questioned her alternately and deeply:

“Li Li, which one do you prefer?”

“Look at me.”

“Who just kissed you?”

Two faces, full of greed and jealousy, drew close, eyes vicious and obsessive.

Chu Li couldn’t answer. Her thoughts were like a ship out of control in a storm, with dazzling white light and suffocating darkness flashing before her eyes.

In the unseen darkness, more tendrils tangled and churned, wishing to eliminate the other entirely.

The soup on the table was knocked over.

It was fish soup that had simmered for a long time, now cold and partially frozen, the thick liquid dripping across the floor.

It flowed to the shoes and house slippers nearby.

Chu Li curled her toes and instinctively grabbed Xi Chu’s tie, sobbing softly.

The previously fighting tendrils suddenly stopped.

Both Xi Chus raised their eyes, looking past Chu Li’s tear-streaked, sweat-damp, slightly trembling shoulders, seeing the frenzied desire burning in each other’s eyes.

Then, strangely and naturally, they reached a silent agreement.

The tendrils stopped fighting and began to cooperate, tidying up the messy room.

They worked flawlessly together, busy and coordinated, moving in and out.

“Ugh—ah! Get out…!”

“…Xi Chu!”

“Make them get out…”

The chaotic shouts, mixed with sobbing, reflected Chu Li’s wish to drive every tendril from the room.

Yet she remained pressed in place, like a fish between two cutting boards.

Her misty, water-filled eyes lost all focus.

All her senses, consciousness, even her soul, seemed thrown into an endless void, leaving only a pure white chaos.

Her soft arms hung limply, fingertips twitching slightly, continuously.

She didn’t know how much time passed.

The living and dining rooms returned to their usual state. Outside, the sunset had dwindled to a single ray.

The light pierced Chu Li, forcing her to break through the lingering darkness, struggling to open her sore, swollen eyelids.

Her blurry vision shifted slightly.

She saw a sharply defined jaw, sunlight glinting on the side of the face, dyeing the deep black eyes beautifully.

Xi Chu held her, walking through the dimly lit stairs toward the master bedroom.

Chu Li collapsed onto the familiar large bed, noticing she was already in pajamas. The previous sticky sensation was gone.

But the terrifying, bloated feeling lingered in her body.

She slowly moved her gaze, realizing she hadn’t seen the other person the entire time. An absurd thought crossed her mind, and she asked Xi Chu with her eyes.

He slightly nodded, brushed the hair from her cheek, and kissed the corner of her lips.

“It’s over, Li Li.”

The out-of-control chaos ended, and the split consciousness that reached an agreement through her, merged into one.

Chu Li relaxed, her consciousness like a power being cut, quickly sinking into darkness.

Before falling asleep, she had only one thought:

Life was better with two people.

****

The days of the three living together ended, and Chu Li’s life returned to calm.

Due to previous misbehavior, Xi Chu still couldn’t regain permission to enter the bedroom.

Chu Li methodically handled all graduation-related matters: defenses, collecting her diploma, submitting study-abroad documents, attending the ceremony…

Her four years of university were captured in a single graduation photo.

On the day of the ceremony, the school opened to the public.

After taking the group photo, many classmates and juniors came to take pictures with Chu Li. One tall figure in a suit quietly stood to the side.

Everyone taking a photo with Chu Li felt a sudden chill down their spine, as if dark eyes were watching.

Until a junior sister noticed the ring on Chu Li’s middle finger and asked in surprise. “Senior, you’re engaged?”

Chu Li nodded calmly, glancing at Xi Chu beside her, curving her lips. “This is my fiancé.”

The junior followed her gaze, seeing the young man’s stern features softened by a spring breeze, no longer so unapproachable.

She smiled sincerely, offering her genuine blessings.

Xin Tong, camera hanging around her neck, squeezed through the crowded walkway of parents and classmates, jumped in front of Chu Li, lifting her camera. “Let me take a picture of you and your person.”

Chu Li chuckled. Before she could speak, a hand already rested on her shoulder.

“Sorry for the trouble.” Xi Chu nodded slightly.

Through the viewfinder, Xin Tong looked at the tall figure holding Chu Li in the sunlight, feeling impressed.

He had really changed a lot since the beginning.

She laughed lightly and quickly pressed the shutter.

Click—

Blue sky, white clouds, two intimate figures captured in a moment.

Xin Tong developed the photo and gave it to Chu Li.

Holding the photo, Chu Li noted how the good weather in the background resembled the sky outside the airplane window.

“Tong Tong took it so well,” she said, smiling softly.

The plane to the United States cut through the thin clouds; the sky outside was a pure blue.

Chu Li felt a weight on her shoulder. A cold, sharp aura approached, and two arms wrapped around her waist. Xi Chu rested his jaw on her shoulder, studying the photo carefully.

He suddenly said, “Li Li, I’m very happy.”

“Happy?” Chu Li blinked, looking at him.

He kissed the corner of her lips, his voice gentle. “I’m happy to be a part of your life.”
