Chapter 31: Chapter 31: Pain and Pleasure (2)

Su Qin’s body stiffened.

"You—!"

She immediately slapped his wrist away, her expression turning sharp.

"I’m not serving you right now! Don’t touch me!"

Then she pinched the hand around her waist hard.

Li Jian’s hand paused.

She was right.

The current request only covered oral relief during the journey, and playing with her breasts while she was serving him.

Right now she had already finished, so this extra touching was outside the deal.

He looked at her flushed, angry face and thought for a moment.

Then he decided to test something.

"Senior Sister Su," he said calmly, "if you don’t want my hand here, that’s fine."

Hearing that, Su Qin’s eyes sharpened and sneer coldly.

"Then take it off."

Li Jian smiled faintly.

"I can. But if you refuse this, I’ll just have you serve me again under the water."

Su Qin froze.

"...What?!"

"You heard me."

Li Jian’s hand, which had been slapped away, trailed back onto her toned abdomen before slowly moving upward and touching the warm, soft underside of her heavy breast.

"Either you let me play with these now, without using your mouth... or I make you go under the water and serve me properly again. Choose wisely."

Su Qin’s face immediately flushed with anger.

"You— that’s shameless! Completely shameless!"

But she did not shove him away at once.

She gripped that mischievous hand by the wrist while her mind turned quickly.

Serving him underwater would be worse.

She would have to hold her breath, take that thing into her mouth again, swallow or choke, and do it while the Golden Marrow Tempering Pool was still pressing on her meridians.

Compared to that, letting him grope her chest for a while was the lesser humiliation.

After a few seconds passed, Su Qin bit her lip hard, glared at him, and after a short, unwilling silence, she clicked her tongue.

"...Fine, you bastard. You better not go too far. Hands only... no mouth, and no other request."

Hearing that, Li Jian’s eyes flickered.

Then he smiled and sank his hand fully into her soft, water-slick breast.

The heavy pale flesh filled his palm at once.

"Uhh..."

Su Qin bit her lip as her body trembled slightly.

Li Jian began to squeeze it slowly, openly molding it under the surface of the pool while Su Qin turned her face away, ears red, body stiff with anger and reluctance.

And without realizing it... the hand around her waist had already slipped down onto her plump rear and was gently molding that supple flesh.

Li Jian enjoyed the soft weight in both of his hands and quietly thought it over.

’So this works too.’

The system’s request was still the foundation.

But Li Jian had realized he could use it to create leverage.

As long as he stayed within the request’s wording, he could push them toward choices they might otherwise refuse.

The system itself wasn’t forcing them to do anything beyond that.

He was simply giving them a choice: accept a smaller demand willingly, or risk being pushed toward something far less acceptable.

’If I play my cards right... I can use the system’s request to influence their choices without actually breaking its limits... just like now.’

Not only had he managed to play with her breast, but he was also groping her rear.

Then Li Jian gave her breast another firm squeeze and leaned back together into the pale-gold liquid.

The Golden Marrow Tempering Pool still pressed against his meridians, but most of his attention had already shifted to the softness in his hand, which somehow helped distract him from the pain of his foundation being tempered.

Su Qin’s breast was even fuller underwater.

The pale flesh was slick, warm, and so soft that his fingers sank in without any resistance.

Every time he squeezed, the mound changed shape and overflowed from his palm before slowly bouncing back.

He rubbed his thumb across the stiffened peak hidden in that softness and felt it harden even more.

Su Qin’s body trembled.

"Uhh... B-Bastard..."

She turned her face away, lips pressed tightly together, and let out a low, unwilling sound from her throat.

Her shoulders were stiff, but she did not push him off.

After choosing this over serving him underwater, she could only endure it.

Each time his fingers pinched or molded the huge pale mound, a faint shiver ran through her soaked body.

After a while, Su Qin finally looked at Li Jian with a flushed expression and complained softly.

"Hhh... don’t keep pinching there..." she muttered, her voice soft and tight.

Seeing such an adorable look, Li Jian ignored her and used both hands now, cupping the pair of breasts from below and pressing them together.

The deep line between those heavy breasts became even clearer under the pale-gold water.

They were large enough that even with both hands, he still could not fully cover them.

The leftover traces from last night and the journey were still faintly there, and now new marks from his fingers slowly appeared on the wet skin.

Seeing this, a strange sense of conquest rose in his chest.

This was different from the system forcing her mouth onto him.

This time, she had agreed because he pushed her into a corner with words... She was angry and unwilling, yet she still let him do it.

Li Jian looked at her flushed ear, the wet hair clinging to her cheek, and the way those huge breasts deformed in his hands, and a quiet pride spread through him.

Yes, the system had given him the foundation for all of this.

Without it, Su Qin would never have knelt for him in the first place.

But this extra step... making her accept his hands when she was not serving him had come from his own calculation.

His own words... his own reading of her temper and pride.

That part counted as his effort.

He squeezed the soft pair again, slower this time, openly enjoying the weight and heat of them in the pool.

Su Qin bit her lip, and without realizing it herself, her arm slowly wrapped around his neck for support as she dazedly glared at the cave wall, her chest rising and falling under his palms.

"Haa... Haa... Bastard... Pervert."

Li Jian smiled faintly and did not stop.

In the pale-gold water of the Golden Marrow Tempering Pool, with pain still lingering in his meridians and those heavy breasts filling both of his hands, he felt a satisfaction that was not only from lust.

It was the satisfaction of taking what had been given to him and pushing it one step further, achieving something entirely through his own cleverness.
