Ancient Eden-Chapter 27

~End of chapter 26 𝚋ｅ𝚍ｎ𝚘ｖｅ𝚕．𝚘𝚛𝚐

Mu Qing ate the piece of roasted meat and found that it was a little more tender than the meat she had eaten before. These few days, she had been somewhat accustomed to chew mechanically the bland meat in her mouth before swallowing it down her esophagus. After eating the wild fruits, Mu Qing then sat on the animal skin, as she listened attentively to the movements outside. She felt that sitting in such a position on the ground for a long time made her legs a little numb, so she lied down.

She didn’t dare to fall asleep. She was waiting for Li Mang to come back, thinking about what would happen later.

Chapter 27

(9.1)

Outside the noise gradually ceased. Mu Qing could only hear the whimpering sound of the wind sweeping through the jungle.

The sound of footsteps gradually resonated, getting closer and closer.

The curtain made of animal skin was lifted, as a tall figure bended to come inside. With the animal skin being lifted, Mu Qing felt a gust of wind that carried along the jungle’s unique fishy air.

Mu Qing curled up into the shape of a shrimp, shrinking herself with her four limbs gathered together, she laid motionless, as if she had already fallen asleep, but her ears were always keeping track of Li Mang’s movements.

She recalled that she had seen that little plump girl circling around Li Mang tonight. She secretly hoped that the two of them, one man and one woman alone and naked, had just gone to the edge of the woods to have a good time. That way, she might perhaps be able to get a good night’s sleep tonight.

But she was soon disappointed.

She felt him lying down beside her, and then she felt that her long hair, from behind, was being clutched in his hands.

Her hair was thick and silky, her former co-workers used to say, jokingly, that she could be cast into shampoo commercials. She herself also loved her hair and had always been taking great care of it.

He seemed to be very interested in her hair, he kept touching it, circling it in his palm and releasing it.

It did not matter at first, the problem was that he obviously did not know how to control his force.

Mu Qing’s hair and scalp were being pulled to the point where it was starting to feel painful.

She endured for a while, but finally could not hold back anymore. She turned around and yanked back her hair. She then sat up and turned her head to stare at him.

The hut was a little dark, but through the gaps, the moonlight was leaking in a few rays of light, so Mu Qing could still see his vague appearance.

He was lying beside her looking at her. He seemed a little surprised. Then very quickly, Mu Qing saw him reach out a hand towards her, he pulled her and made her lie next to him. His hands immediately covered her and kept wandering over her body through her clothes.

Mu Qing endured it again, until she felt goosebumps breaking out on every surface of her skin he had touched.

Since it was bound to happen, it was better to begin early so that it would end early. It was just that, she would just think of it as having accidentally fallen into a sh*t hole while walking. Besides, the scraped marks on her waist were not healed yet. She didn’t want to have more of these scars on her body, and she also didn’t want her only pair of panties to be ripped.

Mu Qing pushed his hands away and took off her shirt, then her pants, and then her underwear. She then parted her legs and laid down flat, without moving.

She knew that seeing a topless woman was as normal as eating and drinking to him. But the lower body, the adult women and men here at least knew to cover their lower embarrassing place. She was now lying naked on all fours like this, even if they couldn’t communicate with language, he should understand her meaning, right?

He seemed a little startled by her actions and looked at her for a moment. Then, he reached out his hand and squeezed her chest a few times, and then very quickly, he was on top of her, pressing against her.

He was a little heavy, and his body was a little wet. Maybe he had just washed in the water?

His rough hands, swimming all over her body, didn’t feel good at all, and it even felt painful on her skin when he was rubbing a little too strongly. Slowly, like the previous time, he lowered his head to her place down there and then started to sniff.

Mu Qing suddenly had a very strange feeling.

She did not know exactly why he was sniffing, or, could it be that the men in this settlement had to do this before doing such things, was this a tradition handed down from their ancestors?

A little embarrassed, she tried to close her legs, but he was holding them tightly with both hands.

He let out a sound from his throat that sounded like he was somewhat disappointed. He then let go of her legs, just like he had the previous time, and he laid down towards the outside to sleep. But this time, he placed her head onto one of his arms, embracing her, while his other hand kept on covering and overturning her chest. He seemed to enjoy touching her there very much.

At first, Mu Qing imagined that she was just going to fall down into a sh*t hole, so she wasn’t very nervous. But now that she was nestling against him, without moving, and being covered by his hand, her heart instead started to beat a little faster.

What exactly did this man’s actions mean? What exactly was he smelling?
