When the car arrived at their destination, Ye Moran led Su Ling out of the vehicle.
She glanced at the little fellow. Although he had regained some energy during the journey, he still seemed deeply preoccupied. It seemed she couldn’t let this continue!
‘I’ll come clean tonight!’
Su Ling looked at the place before them. It seemed to be a guesthouse, and the rooms looked like the bamboo houses from movies, albeit much larger and filled with modern amenities. The smooth wooden floors reflected the surrounding scenery.
Ye Moran led Su Ling toward the second floor. The two of them entered a room where most of the furniture was made of bamboo, and a faint, refreshing scent of bamboo lingered in the air.
Ye Moran helped the little fellow remove his clothes and casually turned on the air conditioning. It was only spring, and the weather had only just begun to warm up.
However, these wooden houses couldn’t retain much heat even with the air conditioning on, which was why most people chose to visit such places during the summer.
Afraid the little fellow would catch a cold, Ye Moran carried him to the bed. The soft bedding covered his body, and Su Ling’s slightly chilled frame gradually began to warm up.
“I’ll take you for a tour around the area tomorrow. For today, just rest, okay?”
Su Ling thought about it and nodded. He hadn’t wanted to come here in the first place; it had been entirely her idea. Since she said it was time to rest, he would rest.
But just as he nodded, his body was suddenly lifted into the air.
“What… What are you doing?”
“You need to bathe before going to sleep.”
“I can go by myself! You don’t need to carry me!”
“No, I don’t trust this place, so I’m going with you!”
“You!”
Su Ling looked at her indignantly. Did she think he didn’t know what she was thinking? She just wanted to bathe with him. Did she really think he couldn’t see through her?
“I won’t agree to it! You said yourself that doing that kind of thing requires my consent!”
“Indeed, but I never said I was going to do that kind of thing with you. I just want to take a bath together!”
“That’s still not okay! Absolutely not! Otherwise, I’ll get angry!”
A flash of panic crossed Su Ling’s eyes. Bathing together was out of the question; she would definitely discover the problem on the top of his head.
“But I just want to bathe with you!”
Ye Moran’s voice sounded somewhat helpless. She tried to pat the little fellow’s head, but he immediately dodged her!
“I won’t bathe with you! Absolutely not!”
“Let me go, right now! I’ll go wash by myself!”
“Fine…”
Ye Moran released the little fellow with a look of disappointment and pointed toward the bathroom.
“Then go by yourself!”
An involuntary expression of doubt appeared on Su Ling’s face. ‘Is this woman really this easy to talk to?’
He couldn’t understand why she was being so agreeable this time. He had only struggled twice before she gave up.
However, he wasn’t the type to overthink things. Since he couldn’t figure it out, he stopped trying. He walked straight into the bathroom and locked the door behind him.
‘Hmph!’
‘No matter what ideas she has, as long as I keep the door locked, she won’t be able to pull off any of her schemes!’
The corners of Ye Moran’s mouth curled upward. After the little fellow entered the bathroom, she unhurriedly began to observe the entire room.
The layout of the room possessed a minimalist beauty. A bamboo forest stood right outside the window; when the spring breeze blew, the forest began to sway, dancing in the wind.
She leaned against the windowsill, taking a moment to appreciate the surrounding scenery before unhurriedly walking toward the bathroom.
*Thump, thump, thump!*
“Little fellow, I drank too much water and need to use the toilet. Open the door, I need to come in!”
“????”
Su Ling was halfway through his bath and was covered in soft bubbles. He was just about to rinse them off.
He turned his head and indeed noticed a toilet located near the bathroom door.
“Wait a moment, I’m almost done!”
“I can’t wait, little fellow! I’m about to burst! Just open the door. I’m just using the toilet, I promise I won’t do anything to you!”
“You… I…”
Su Ling bit his lip, feeling hesitant about whether to let her in.
“Hurry up, little fellow! I really can’t hold it anymore!”
Ye Moran’s voice betrayed a hint of urgency, and the sound of her pounding on the door became increasingly frantic.
Su Ling grabbed a nearby towel to wrap around himself and cautiously approached the door. With a sharp twist, he unlocked it.
The moment the door opened just a crack, a hand forced its way in.
Su Ling’s heart skipped a beat for some reason, sensing that something was wrong. But when he tried to slam the door shut again, that large hand gripped the edge firmly. The door was forced open inch by inch.
“No, don’t! Let go!”
“Hehehe, little fellow, I’m coming in!”
Ye Moran let out a low chuckle, let go of the door, and pounced toward the little fellow!
“Ah, no!”
Su Ling was almost moved to tears by the fright. ‘How can she be like this?!’
But then he remembered the things on the top of his head. Now that his hair was wet from the water, those two things would be easily spotted!
He immediately covered his head, trying to use his hands as a shield.
But he didn’t realize how much his current actions drew attention. It was a complete dead giveaway.
“Little fellow, why are you suddenly holding your head like that?”
“No, it’s nothing! Go out! Go out, okay?”
Su Ling was so anxious he was about to cry, his voice carrying a slight sob. His body struggled incessantly, trying to break free from her embrace.
“Put your hands down and let me see.”
“No!”
“Hehe, little fellow, don’t forget that I am your Master now. If you dare to disobey your Master’s orders, you’ll be punished!”
“You!”
Su Ling’s eyes reddened, and tears suddenly began to well up.
‘So mean… Wahhh…’
But before he could even feel aggrieved, his hands covering his head were forcibly pried away by her, revealing the things he wanted to hide.
“Tsk, they’ve already grown this big. They must feel quite comfortable to touch, right?”
As Ye Moran spoke, she gently stroked them.
A tingling sensation immediately surged through Su Ling’s body, and his small face flushed crimson because of the strange feeling.
“What… what do you mean by that?”
Su Ling endured the discomfort and asked in a low voice.
At first, he had been terrified that she would think he was a monster after seeing them. Instead, the scene he had imagined didn’t happen. On the contrary, she had made a comment that sounded as if she recognized them.
He felt that she must know something about this change of his. Perhaps she was even responsible for it!
Thinking of this, he secretly clenched his fists. If she really was the one who did this, then he would definitely…
He thought for a long time but realized he couldn’t think of anything he could actually do to her. Beat her up? He couldn’t even touch her; how could he fight?
Even if he could land a hit, it would probably just please her rather than hurt her!
Scold her? That would probably have the same effect. This woman was a total pervert, someone who responded to neither the carrot nor the stick!
“Hehe, I bet you’re currently saying bad things about me in your heart, aren’t you?”
Ye Moran didn’t answer the little fellow’s question immediately. Instead, she looked at him with great interest and said something that made his scalp tingle.
“No, I’m not! How could I possibly say bad things about you?”
Su Ling’s guilty voice dropped a few octaves, and he even turned his head away, not daring to look at her.
