Bai Shuiru didn't have time to think about it, and her face suddenly turned red, just like when she was caught wearing a T-shirt backwards on the street, and people laughed and talked about her.

"Then I won't bother you for now." Qi Chu nodded slightly to Hei Huomian and walked towards the study door.

There was a knock on the study door, and Uncle Nan pushed it open and walked in, bowing respectfully to see Qi Chu off.

Wu Chu stretched lazily and said, "Then I'll leave too. I finally have a chance to sleep in." He also turned into ink-like water and evaporated.

The study was suddenly silent as if no one was there, but soon one could hear the breathing and heartbeats of the two people gradually getting closer.

Hei Huomian turned around, nodded slowly, and said to Bai Shuiru in a veiled manner:

"So it was you, little thing, who tricked me."

"I, I didn't mean it..."

The little girl hummed and lowered her eyes, not daring to meet the man's eyes again.

"I was blindfolded by him at that time too! I just casually called out your name."

"If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for your bad luck~!"

The little girl quickly glanced at the man, but didn't have time to hide the bright smile on her lips.

Hei Huomian pulled back his imagination that was quickly turning to a seductive one. After taking a deep breath, he stepped towards her and asked:

"Oh? So it's my own fault then?"

The little girl sensed something was wrong and stepped back, decisively pushing the culprit to the front:

"Yes, it was Wuchu who did it. I will go with you."

Bai Shuiru suddenly realized that she had her back against the bookcase and she had nowhere to retreat. The tall and strong man was not only very close to her, but his shadow also completely covered her.

The sense of oppression and crisis came over me like a tidal wave, along with the man's harsh words wrapped in layers of tenderness:

"I really want to punish you severely..."

As Bai Shuiru's heart palpitated, soft whispers also flowed from her lips:

"Yeah, Black Fire Mian..."

As the man leaned over her, he kissed her nose with a familiar, cool scent. With an inexplicable interest between his lips, he whispered in her ear, almost cheek to cheek:

"Unfortunately, it's not time yet."

She could clearly tell that her breathing had also become heavier after being entangled with his. His burning breath domineeringly caressed her cheeks and neck, causing her to tremble slightly.

But it was obvious that Hei Huomian was still trying very hard to suppress certain emotions that had been surging in the dark for a long time.

"Don't be afraid. I will continue to wait patiently for that moment to come."

He stretched out his hand to smooth the hair on her cheek, and seemed to be talking to himself:

"But it won't be long."

"what?"

The man suddenly stood up and winked at her.

"Do you still want to drink crucian carp soup?"

"Okay, okay!"

Bai Shuiru immediately jumped up and down on the spot and even clapped her hands excitedly.

Hei Huomian shook his head in annoyance and amusement, stretched out his big hand to hold her waist, brought her soft body to his side, then slid his hand lightly and slowly onto her shoulder blade, and left the study with her, taking the elevator down to the kitchen.

"By the way, there is something I think it would be better to tell you in advance."

"Am I going to be fired?"

Bai Shuiru was surprised, and immediately showed a pitiful expression, blinking his wet puppy eyes.

"Boss, I was defending you just now. Doesn't that count as fulfilling my job responsibilities?"

"Where did you go?"

Hei Huomian reached out and scratched the little girl's pretty nose. "It's about my mother's birthday party."

"Because my parents have some connections with Mr. and Mrs. Zhong, they will be invited to attend according to past practice."

Bai Shuiru nodded, remembering the first time she met Hei Huomian, he did mention that he extended greetings to the Zhong couple on behalf of his parents.

"I understand. If I'm happy, I'll just say a few words to them. If I'm unhappy, I'll drag you in front of me as a shield."

The girl said as she stepped behind the man, followed him by his vest, and shouted:

“Gee, gee, woooo! We’re here, we’re here!”

The man turned around and rubbed her hair, raised his eyebrows lovingly and unhappily and asked:

"You treat me like a horse?"

"Hey, Boss Ma~!"

The little girl called out with a smile, dodged the man's big hand that was trying to scratch her nose again, and the cell phone in her trouser pocket rang.

"Is that Shui Ru? I'm your father."

Bai Shuiru was stunned for two seconds before she realized who the middle-aged man who claimed to be her father on the phone was.

"Oh, Mr. Zhong, hello."

Hei Huomian pulled Bai Shuiru's wrist and came to the dining table, pulled out a chair for her, patted her shoulder gently, and motioned her to sit down.

“…It’s me.”

"I hope my sudden phone call didn't scare you."

Bai Shuiru looked at Hei Huomian and smiled to express her gratitude. However, she also felt the understanding in the other's eyes, so she frowned and turned her head to give him a "?"

"You worry too much. Excuse me, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Zhong Xichu on the other end of the phone was obviously silent for two seconds, slightly embarrassed by her indifference.

"...I think you already know that I have a relationship with Mr. and Mrs. Hei. I heard that Mrs. Hei has also invited you to her birthday party at the beginning of next month, so I wanted to ask you what style of dress and jewelry you like so that I can help you prepare it."

"Oh. Thank you for your concern, Fei. Uh, Mrs. Hei has prepared a dress for me."

"What about jewelry? You always need jewelry to wear to a dinner party."

"It's okay, I can DIY this."

When it comes to his specialties, Bai Shuiru immediately shines with confidence.

Zhong Xichu obviously didn't know what to say. He smiled awkwardly and replied, "See you then," and ended the call.

Hei Huowan saw his elder brother looking at Bai Shuiru and smiling, he blinked his big eyes in confusion and asked:

"Mianmian, are you laughing at how pretty Sister Ru Ru is? Yu Douzi smiled like that when he kissed Little Rose."

Bai Shuiru was taking a sip of carbonated mineral water. After drinking it, he tilted his head and rolled his eyes, and asked:

"Do carp eat lotus? Can fish laugh?"

Mr. and Mrs. Hei Zhan Ze, who were giving their youngest son a thumbs-up, immediately held their foreheads, shook their heads, and sighed secretly.

Hei Zhanze was the first to straighten his expression, and smiled at Bai Shuiru to confirm:

"Mr. Zhong does care about you. In fact, after we came back, he called me three or four times and asked me and your aunt to take good care of you."

Jing Youxi stood up and served the dishes to Bai Shuiru, adding:

"Yes, Mr. Zhong also wants me to help you choose a dress and jewelry. I say, those who can live in our Sucong Manor are not outsiders, right, Mianmian?"

Jing Youxi winked at his eldest son, then looked back at Bai Shuiru with a mischievous smile.

"And you forgot what I told you, there will be someone to blame~!"

"Thank you Mr. Hei, thank you Fei!" The little girl received the hint from the other party and immediately bared her teeth at Hei Huomian, not forgetting to blink:

"Since it's working time, then of course all expenses are covered by the boss, right?"

Bai Shuiru then picked up a piece of white asparagus and fed it to Hei Huowan, "Come here, Wanwan, ah~!"

The Hei Zhan Ze couple didn't bother to encourage their youngest son to eat vegetables. They all clenched their fists towards their eldest son, signaling:

Come on, son!

We tried our best!

Bai Shuiru lazily stepped out of the bathtub, put on her pajamas and robe and walked out of the bathroom, then she heard an urgent and impatient knock on the door.

Bai Shuiru opened the door while yawning. Seeing the man at the door about to reach for the door handle, she quickly closed her mouth and swallowed half a mouthful of air.

"If you hadn't opened the door, I would have almost broken in."

The man complained gently and walked straight into the house.

"He must be taking a bath and eating ice cream again. Do you know how long I've been knocking on the door?"

"Boss, what's the matter?"

Bai Shuiru couldn't help but yawn. The man gently supported her shoulder blade and led her into the house like a guest.

The man hugged his talking doll that looked like a sheep wearing sunglasses and sat directly on his wrought iron bed.

"Bai Shuiru, I think you haven't been to work for too long and have forgotten your responsibilities."

"Oh, boss, whatever you want."

Bai Shuiru yawned, unfolded the screen, fell onto the bed, pulled the quilt over her, turned off the light and went to sleep.

"Boss...good night."

The man, still holding the sheep doll and looking at the little girl through the screen, declared forcefully:

"Bai Shuiru, give me some time tomorrow."

Bai Shuiru, who was almost asleep, struggled for half a minute before slowly responding:

"Um... Boss, haven't I been working... diligently? I haven't even... asked for leave."

The fake ones are all...you took the initiative to criticize me.

"I have to go out, won't you stay with me?"

Hei Huomian pretended to be impatient, pursed his lips, turned his head and looked at the little girl hatefully across the screen.

"Oh. Then can I meet with my client to do the deal? I promise...very much."

The even, gentle breathing sound along with the scent of jasmine aromatherapy invites the moonlight to come.

Following the light silver footsteps of the moonlight, the man also walked lightly to the girl's bed, sat down, and pulled his sunglasses to his forehead.

The heat in his pupils was like a volcano about to erupt, and his Adam's apple rose and fell as he swallowed, just like the emotions surging in his heart at this moment.

However, the man still restrained himself, and only carefully stroked her cheek with his eyes and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear.

The black hair as black as crow feathers fell stubbornly on her slender white neck, like a nature that could not be suppressed by magic, tempting the beast to bite and leave a mark to declare its exclusive possession.

Hopefully, you are not a mirage seen by a traveler dying of hunger and thirst in the desert.

Even with the affirmation from Wuchu, I still felt uneasy.

I want to be 100% sure in person: you are my little brush.

Because I am afraid of letting down the little brush, and I am also afraid of letting you down.

Only when I truly find you, will I have complete faith in your love for me that will never leave you even if the world collapses.
