“Am I that scary?”
Lin Qingyu was almost amused by the little fellow’s reaction.
“Hey, I remember we became friends last time.”
“Is this how you treat a friend?”
Hearing this, Su Ling finally looked up at her. After a moment of hesitation, he whispered, “We… we aren’t friends…”
“Ah, is that so?”
“Then… watch out!”
Lin Qingyu was about to say something else when she suddenly caught a flash of green out of the corner of her eye. Without a second thought, she lunged forward, tackling Su Ling to the ground!
However, since they were both at the edge of the road with a steep slope right below them, the impact caused them both to lose control of their bodies. They tumbled straight down the slope!
“Don’t!”
Su Ling cried out in alarm, instinctively trying to grab onto something. Lin Qingyu didn’t have time to think. She used her arms to shield Su Ling’s body as they rolled down the hillside together!
After rolling for quite a distance, the two finally came to a stop. Both looked quite disheveled. The ground was muddy from the recent rain, and they were now covered in it!
Lin Qingyu was wearing a travel windbreaker, so she was slightly better off, but the little fellow was only wearing a pair of fluffy pajamas. At this moment, he looked both miserable and pitiful.
Their bodies were pressed very close together. Their gentle breaths hit each other’s faces in the same rhythm. Lin Qingyu looked down, gazing at Su Ling’s face!
Su Ling was incredibly beautiful — the most beautiful boy Lin Qingyu had ever seen. He had delicate skin, soft features, and especially a pair of bright, large eyes that blinked with a faint, watery shimmer of lingering fear and timidity!
Those bright eyes seemed capable of seeing through a person’s soul, reaching deep into the heart and stirring up everything within!
For a moment, she couldn’t help but stare blankly. She had thought the little fellow was good-looking before, but facing him at such a close distance, he seemed even more beautiful!
Her heart felt as if it had been struck hard. For a moment, Lin Qingyu didn’t want to let go. She wanted to keep holding the little fellow like this, carefully sensing the unique, milky scent with a hint of fruitiness coming from him!
“Ugh… You, you let me go!”
Su Ling’s face flushed red under her intense gaze. He turned his head away and pushed against her with all his might.
Feeling the little fellow’s rejection, Lin Qingyu reluctantly released him.
“I’m sorry. But there was a venomous snake right next to where you were sitting. I tackled you because I was worried. I’m truly sorry.”
Seeing that she didn’t seem to be lying, Su Ling hesitated for a moment before finally whispering a thank you.
Snap!
Lin Tianyu wanted to say something else, but at that moment, the sound of a snapping branch rang out. She turned her head and saw the person approaching!
“Moran?”
Ye Moran’s gaze was cold as she walked toward them step by step. Su Ling instinctively tried to run the moment he saw her, but just as his body moved, an intense surge of electricity shot out from his neck!
“Ngh! Ah…!”
With a painful whimper, his body instantly lost all strength.
“Where do you think you’re running?”
“Moran, you…”
Lin Qingyu wanted to say something, but Ye Moran walked right past her and picked the little fellow up!
It was the first time Su Ling had experienced this kind of electric shock. His body couldn’t stop trembling, and his eyes were filled with confusion and terror.
“Moran, you’re not acting right. Did you miss your medicine again? You need to calm down. Don’t do something you’ll regret!”
Lin Qingyu took a few quick steps, trying to catch up.
Regret?
Ye Moran let out a cold laugh. She had many things she regretted; she didn’t care about one or two more!
“Stop!”
Lin Qingyu chased wildly from behind, but she was wearing a heavy windbreaker and carrying a travel bag. More importantly, this woman, Ye Moran, wasn’t a normal human at all!
What kind of normal human could walk while carrying someone as if they were running!
With such good physical strength, she really didn’t know how Ye Jin endured this person every night!
***
Ye Moran threw Su Ling back onto the bed.
“Ugh… You… I…”
Su Ling placed his fingers on the collar around his neck, pulling at it with all his strength. But not only did he fail to tear it off, he also felt a searing pain!
“What… what did you do to me?!”
“I didn’t want to treat you like this.”
Ye Moran pinched the little fellow’s neck. She didn’t use much force, only using this method to stop him from continuing to pull at the collar.
“Stop messing with that thing. It will hurt.”
With tears in his eyes, Su Ling wondered how he could possibly stop. That thing had just shocked him.
But in the next moment, as he felt her body gradually drawing closer, he instantly realized what was happening. He could no longer care about the collar. His hands pushed against her, trying to shove her away!
“You, get away!”
“Wooo… I’m already like this, and you’re still thinking about that? I’m covered in filth right now!”
“I want to take a bath. Let’s talk after I’m clean, okay?”
“I’ll wash with you!”
“Wooo, no… let me go, okay? Just this once, just this once, please.”
“I’m feeling very miserable right now. No!”
“Ah!”
“Be gentler!”
Lin Qingyu stood outside the room. The bamboo house couldn’t block the sound, yet it kept her outside.
Listening to those unspeakable sounds, a wave of irritability inexplicably surged in her heart. Her reason told her she shouldn’t get involved!
When Ye Moran went crazy, she was completely unreasonable. If she kept interfering, she might end up in trouble herself.
But… the moment she thought of the current Su Ling in pain and pleading for mercy…
‘Tsk, when did I become so kind?!’
She gave a self-deprecating laugh and pounded on the door hard several times.
“Ye Moran, stop it right now! If you don’t stop, I’m coming in!”
Hearing this, the corners of Ye Moran’s mouth curled up. She leaned closer to Su Ling’s ear as he cried incessantly from the pain.
“Heh, tell me, does the person outside the room like you?”
“Ugh, it hurts… I don’t know what you’re talking about. Stop, I’m begging you.”
“Heh, you don’t know?”
“It’s fine. Let’s play something interesting, shall we?”
“Wooo… What… what are you going to do?”
“Let me go, wooo… I won’t forgive you, wooo…”
Ye Moran smiled. She picked up the little fellow and carried him out of the bathtub. Su Ling, drenched in water, looked like a hibiscus emerging from the water, making one unable to resist the urge to cherish him.
Holding the little fellow, she walked out of the bathroom and headed straight for the door. Passing the sofa, she grabbed a blanket and draped it over him!
She didn’t open the door. Instead, she pinned the little fellow against it.
“Ah…!”
“???”
Lin Qingyu was stunned. Hearing the sound coming from right in front of her, her scalp instantly went numb!
“Lunatic!”
“Ye Moran, you lunatic!”
“She’s angry. Little fellow, let’s make her even angrier, shall we?!”
“Wooo… you… you bastard!”
Lin Qingyu wanted to leave, but as she listened to those sounds, her feet felt like they were filled with lead, unable to move at all.
She didn’t know how much time had passed; Lin Qingyu only felt that it was all incredibly long!
Click!
The door opened. Ye Moran looked at her with an expressionless face!
“Ye. Mo. Ran!”
Lin Qingyu looked at her in a rage.
“Do you have any idea what you’ve done? Did you forget to take your medicine again?!”
“Going crazy again… do you want to lock him up too? You’re truly a pervert, a lunatic!”
Ye Moran wiped the saliva that had splashed onto her face, her expression remaining unchanged.
