Lu Qiang closed his eyes for a moment. He knew, that was the forbidden place for him, as she said before, she can't handle to get touched over there. Also, he still remembered her reaction when he tried to touch her there, that night.

He wanted her to get out of that trauma but he was more afraid to make her feel scared like before. He decided to wait for sometime more as he didn't want to ruin the best moments, they just shared together.

Jiang Yuyan looked at him while panting heavily as she realized, Lu Qiang had stopped. His eyes were closed as he was in a pain and was thinking about something.

She understood, he was trying to resist his desire to go down there to her chest and touch it. She didn't want him to stop. She wanted to get out of that abyss just for him. She wanted to test herself and make herself stronger.

Lu Qiang opened his eyes and looked at her and said, "I guess, I should stop now."

"Don't stop!" Before he could isolate himself from her body, Jiang Yuyan said these words which made Lu Qiang surprised.

Lu Qiang surprisingly asked, "Are you sure?"

Jiang Yuyan nodded and said, "Yes!"

Lu Qiang gave her a peck on her lips and said, "Stop me, if you can't take it."

Jiang Yuyan nodded and inhaled deeply to get ready to face it.

Lu Qiang understood everything about her, what and why she wanted to do certain things sometimes. He decided to support her, but he preferred to take it slowly, not in the passionate way which he was doing it earlier.

Lu Qiang pulled the night dress down with his fingers but didn't uncover her chest completely, so that he can stop immediately when she would ask him.

As Lu Qiang started to kiss her on the chest, Jiang shut her eyes tightly and clutched his T-shirt on his shoulders in her both hands. He looked at her and saw, she was trying to bear with it

Lu Qiang pulled her clothes to half way by pulling the straps of her dress and her lingerie, further down from her shoulders which made her bosoms half uncovered.

When he started to kiss and suck the soft skin of her bosoms, her body shook a little and she pulled her hands back from his shoulders. Her eyes and lips were tightly shut but she didn't ask him to stop.

Lu Qiang stopped and lifted his head up to look at her. He noticed the painful expressions on her face. Tears were rolling down from the corners of her eyes.

Lu Qiang covered her chest back by pulling her dress up and moving the straps of her clothes back to her shoulders.

Jiang Yuyan realized that Lu Qiang had stopped. She opened her teary eyes and asked in a broken voice, "W..Why..did..you..stop?"

Lu Qiang looked at her, kissed her on forehead, wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said while smiling a little, "This is enough for now."

"But" Jiang Yuyan tried to talk again.

"Shhhh! We have lots of time in future, no need to rush." Lu Qiang put his index finger on her lips to stop her from saying anything further.

Jiang Yuyan nodded and he removed his finger from her lips. He then decided to move away from her body and was ready to get up, just then she stopped him by calling his name, "Lu Qiang."

Lu Qiang stopped and looked at her back saying, "Ummm?"

"Will you be ok? I mean" Jiang Yuyan was worried about Lu Qiang as she knew how much he wanted her, moments before.

She felt bad for disappointing him. She tried very hard and decided to stay strong and not let the things from the past to ruin their moments. She wouldn't have stopped Lu Qiang, whatever she had to bear for it but Lu Qiang stopped and she blamed herself for it.

"I am fine. Trust me." Lu Qiang replied before she could say anything further and feel bad about it.

Lu Qiang knew she was worried about him and must be blaming herself but he was not disappointed at all. He was happy, as for him she was at least ready to accept him from her heart even though her body said otherwise. He was sure, with all the love between them, they would be able to overcome it one day.

Lu Qiang got up from the bed and covered her with a quilt and said, "It's going to be a dawn soon. You have to sleep for a sometime."

Jiang Yuyan nodded while looking at him.

Then, Lu Qiang pointed towards the couch in the bedroom and said, "I will be there. If you need anything, just wake me up."

Jiang Yuyan again nodded.

Lu Qiang leaned down and kissed her on her forehead and said with a pleasant smile on his lips, "Good night, Yuyan,"

Lu Qiang was about to turn around to move towards the couch, just then Jiang Yuyan held his hand and stopped him.

As she held his hand, Lu Qiang stopped and turned to look at her. She was still holding his hand.

Lu Qiang looked at her and asked, "Do you need something?"

Jiang Yuyan shook her head while looking at him with the expressions of little girl who was anticipating something from him.

Lu Qiang held her hand in his both hands and asked, "Then?"

Jiang Yuyan replied, "Sleep here!"

Lu Qiang looked at her with surprised expressions. It was not a big deal as both were already have been too close to each other, but still Lu Qiang didn't expect her to say this.

He asked, "Are you still feeling scared because of the nightmare?"

Jiang Yuyan shook her head and said, "No! I just want you to sleep here with me."

She said it straight forwardly without any hesitation.

Lu Qiang nodded and stepped forward to sleep beside her.

Jiang Yuyan shifted a little to make a space for him. Lu Qiang lifted the quilt and slept beside her by leaving a few inches distance between them. He then covered himself with a quilt too.

Both were staring at the ceiling, then, Jiang Yuyan looked at him. Lu Qiang felt her sight at him and he too looked at her. She didn't say anything but Lu Qiang understood what he could.

He lifted his one arm which was in the side of Jiang Yuyan and made a space for her. Jiang Yuyan immediately turned towards him and slept while keeping her head on his arm and placed her arm on his chest.

Lu Qiang smiled and patted her head like she was a baby. Jiang Yuyan smiled pleasantly and closed her eyes.

Lu Qiang kissed on her head and closed his eyes too and both fell asleep.
