Wild Sweet Temptation

"It's almost done, go and soak in some bubbles." Su Muchen carried her directly into the bathtub. There were flower petals floating in the bathtub, and there was a cute bath ball bubbling away.

Seeing that she was hesitant to speak, he rubbed her head. "I'm outside the door. Just call me if you need anything."

After soaking, her body suddenly began to feel tired and she stumbled out. Su Muchen opened a bath towel, took her in his arms and wiped her hair.

"Why don't you take a nap if you're tired? If you don't rest every day, your body will collapse. Take a good rest for a few days and then go back to school? Or if you don't want to go, we can find a tutor, how about that?"

She raised her head slightly. "Do mom and dad know about this?"

"No, now only I know it."

"I want to eat... honey toast..."

Su Muchen hummed. "Wait, I'll do it for you."

After he finished blow-drying her hair and left, she felt uncomfortable in her heart, as if she had done something very sorry to Zhou Zaize.

After struggling for a long time, she finally told the other party about her situation. She found out that Zhou Zaize was doing well there. He would share happy things with her every day. Seeing that she hadn't replied for a long time, he asked her if she was sick.

After roughly recounting what had happened to her, Ji Fanxing began to feel sick from the bottom of her heart. She ran to the bathroom and vomited out everything she had just eaten. Looking at her haggard face in the mirror, she covered her mouth and tried not to cry out.

She felt that she was very strange and became more and more afraid to leave Su Muchen these days.

She knew that what she was doing was wrong, but she would feel anxious whenever he was not around, so she became like a follower like she was when she was a child, following him wherever he went, and sitting beside him pitifully, holding the big rabbit and watching him do things.

"Aren't you going to school? Actually, you don't have to... accompany me every day..."

Su Muchen looked at the computer screen. "It's fine for now. I was busy with experiments recently. I'll leave the rest to them. I've watched the other classes they recorded for me. It's more important that you get better."

"I...I'm sorry for delaying you..."

Hearing her apology, Su Muchen tilted his head and looked over at her. "So how do you want to repay me? Hmm?"

She stared at Su Muchen in a daze, not knowing how to answer the question. After a while, she frantically pulled the rabbit's ears and played with them. She lowered her head without looking into his eyes and muttered softly.

"Haven't we all... kissed each other?"

Well...even though he was rejected later, he was the one who took the initiative to kiss me!

"Speak louder, I can't hear you."

……

She glared at him a little angrily.

"Can I be your slave in my next life?"

"Oh, you're willing to do that. No, I can't wait until the next life, so I'll do it in this life. When you grow up, you can work hard in my company. Now that you're underage, I won't bully you."

Seeing that she could still argue with him, Su Muchen knew that things were at least getting better.

Although she still had trouble sleeping these past few days, at least she could still eat and wasn't in a trance all the time.

The two sat opposite each other. Su Muchen brought the prepared meals to her and ate with her every day. Although the three dishes and one soup were simple, they were warm enough.

He is good at cooking, so Ji Fanxing will eat a little more than outside. Even if he eats just one bite more every day, he feels that the day's thinking is not in vain.

"Eat some more." Ji Fanxing picked up another chicken leg for her, holding the unfinished leg in her mouth and mumbling. "I can't eat any more..."

"You eat what I tell you to eat. Are you used to it? Hurry up and eat everything I make!"

"You are so mean to me... wuwuwu..."

She is now very prone to emotional breakdowns. She starts crying at any time and sometimes she can't control herself.

Su Muchen stopped his chopsticks in the air and watched her crying while eating the chicken leg. He tried hard to hold back his smile, wanting to see how long she would cry.

After watching for ten seconds, he completely lost his patience. He pursed his lips, walked over, grabbed a piece of paper, and squatted there to wipe her face.

"I'm wrong, okay? Don't cry, Xing'er. Let's not eat this after we finish it, okay? Hmm? Let's do some Sudoku?"

She has recently become obsessed with Sudoku and Rubik's Cube. Su Muchen has bought her all kinds of Rubik's Cubes from all over the world. After she finishes solving one, he will immediately give her a more difficult one.

This would prevent her from thinking about what happened that day, but it would also drain her energy.

After Zhou Zaize knew what happened to her, he didn't say much. He comforted her with a few words and expressed his regret that he was not by her side. She was very angry and had no way to go back now.

Before going to bed, she saw Zhou Zaize said that the web drama would start filming next week, and asked her if she had a chance to come and see it, and that she could just come and take a look on Saturdays and Sundays.

Ji Fanxing flipped through the calendar and saw that there was a competition that day. For a moment she was a little hesitant about whether to agree to it.

The main reason is...she felt sorry for him for what happened.

With his hand hanging there, unable to write, Su Muchen took her phone and threw it aside. "It's time to go to bed."

She had difficulty falling asleep every day. In order to ensure her sleep quality, Su Muchen would let her start preparing for sleep in advance.

Su Muchen sat aside and watched over her quietly. Ji Fanxing stared at him with her eyes open, and finally her eyes were blocked. "You have to learn to close your eyes now."

"If you close your eyes, they will come."

"They won't dare to do that when I'm here." Ji Fanxing's hand was held again. She tried to close her eyes, but woke up immediately. "I, I can't..."

"You can, Xing'er. Do you want me to sleep like this with you for the rest of my life? You don't want that, do you?"

Her eyes were still covered by Su Muchen. The faint light filtered through her fingers and she struggled in the quilt.

"I, but I, I can't. I think I saw them panting... that's it..."

"Xing'er, there are not only them in the darkness, but also the cubs."

Su Muchen watched her struggle with heartache, but knew that he should not be too soft-hearted.

Cub...

Ji Fanxing slowly calmed down.

After waiting for a while and hearing her even but weak breathing, Su Muchen removed his hand and watched her fall asleep, then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Their hands were still held together. He was used to this situation. He would just watch her sleep all night and leave early the next day to make breakfast for her.

"I'm sorry..." Ji Fanxing murmured, as if she had a dream. Su Muchen bent down to wipe her tears, and his body froze when he heard her talking in her sleep.

"I'm sorry Zaize...I didn't mean to...."

After listening for a while, which were all words of apology, Su Muchen's Adam's apple rolled a few times, and finally he uttered a low "huh".

The short bytes were so weak as not to wake the sleeping person and quickly dissipated into the darkness.

The bloody red light flickered, one hand pinched the cigarette, and the other hand never let go of her hand, their fingers were intertwined, but not connected by their hearts.

He had never felt so far away from her.

Even now she still depends on him, but...

No longer belongs to him.

Ji Fanxing was choked by the cigarette while she was sleeping and started to cough. Su Muchen immediately put out the cigarette and watched her frown relax again in silence, hugging the big rabbit tightly.

The sky turned white.

Su Muchen was a little silent during the meal today. Ji Fanxing secretly observed him while drinking milk.

"You can try going to school starting tomorrow."
