You sit in the middle

Her daughter is here, resting against the window with her face locked towards her phone.

You’re still riding the high from your earlier experience, your body buzzing, your cock still as hard and making it difficult to move naturally. As you move to your seat the daughter gives you a side-eye, her expression unreadable, but she’s clearly wondering why you and her mother were both away for so long and somehow returned at the same time.

She looks at her mother and says in a dry tone, "你操他了吗？"

"哪有！我可没那么放荡！" the older woman replies, with a playful voice.

"Whatever," the daughter mutters, rolling her eyes.

"想多了" her mother adds, shaking her head.

You catch fragments of the conversation. Mostly just 操 (cào), which means "fuck" And 你 (Nǐ), which means "you"... obviously. The rest is lost on you, but the tone is clear.

{else}

You don’t understand a word apart from "whatever". It doesn’t help much. They seem to be arguing, but about what? She probably inquiring about your absence.

You’re painfully self-conscious now, your cheeks burning.

"So, first time to China?" Annie asks, switching seamlessly to English as if nothing happened. "Where are you going?"

As it turns out, you’re heading to the same city. She introduces herself—Annie—and asks for your name. The conversation flows naturally, and before you know it, an hour has passed. You ask if they’re traveling to meet family. She explains she’s divorced but still on good terms with her in-laws.

You exchange information, it can always be useful.

You learn more about her life. The other woman is indeed her daughter, just two years older than you.

Then, out of the blue, Annie drops a bombshell: "By the way, my daughter is looking for a husband."

By now, the daughter is asleep again, but you can easily imagine the massive eye-roll she’d give if she heard that line.

You don’t know what to say.
