In a daze, Zhou Niantang felt his body lighten, as if someone was holding him up, or as if he was floating in the air.

After a while, it felt like I was placed on a soft bed and covered with a quilt.

How comfortable, she thought to herself, then she hugged the quilt, rubbed her face against it and went back to sleep.

Her action made Pei Shi's eyes dim as he was standing beside the bed.

For a moment, he felt that Zhou Niantang was like a kitten, well-behaved and docile, and the movement of rubbing against the quilt was as if he was acting coquettishly with his owner.

He began to realize that he didn't seem to hate Zhou Niantang anymore.

But why is this happening?

In his memory, since the last summer he stayed in the Zhou family, Zhou Niantang had intruded into his world again and again, making him disgusted, repulsed, and even thinking of dragging her into the quagmire.

It became the day when he was adopted by Zhou Yunqi.

As soon as he got off the car and looked at the Zhou family's exquisite and luxurious villa, he realized that the person who adopted him was of such a powerful background.

He had just arrived in the new environment and was a little uneasy, but was soon held by a soft little hand.

The little girl has a princess hairstyle and wears a beautiful princess dress. She has fair skin and pretty facial features, like a real little princess.

She said to him in a soft voice: "Brother, you are so handsome."

The touch of your hand feels like being wrapped in a piece of silk, delicate and soft.

But soon, someone grabbed the little girl, looked at him with disgust, and then dragged the little girl into the villa.

"Tangtang, be good and don't get in touch with this kind of person. You are different from him, understand? Go back and take your medicine. Sister will take you out to play later."

Before the little girl walked into the villa, she looked back at him. Although she was confused, she did not struggle and just walked away from him.

Then he was taken to a semi-old attic.

All the beautiful things were shattered. It was at this moment that Pei Shi knew in his heart that the Zhou family’s luxurious life had nothing to do with him.

The woman who adopted him had already planned how to treat him from the very beginning.

Use the most vicious words to break his heart bit by bit, trying to make him submit to this world and make him believe that he is only worthy of living a lowly life.

But why?

Countless times, from the attic balcony, he saw a little girl sitting on a small stool in front of a bunch of blooming roses in the garden outside the main building, covering the roses with a net bag.

Then he smiled and showed the servants around him how beautiful the flowers he grew were.

Even if her hand was slightly scratched by a thorn, a servant would pull her over to comfort her and bandage the wound. She was so delicate and timid.

At that time, I hated her.

I hate her naivety and delicate appearance, as if she was brought up in a giant greenhouse.

He had never been qualified to touch any place other than his own attic.

Except for the one or two times a month when the woman would send someone to call him to the study and either beat or scold him.

And every time, he would be released before Zhou Niantang went home from school.

At that time he knew that the person Zhou Yunqi cared about most was her sister, Zhou Niantang.

He cared enough to not let her get exposed to even a little bit of the dark side of the world, and he was only worthy of lingering in the darkness.

Is that right?

Of course he knew that was not the case. He knew clearly that he was smart, and being adopted by the Zhou family had given him great hope for the future.

And when everything was shattered, he also knew that no matter how Zhou Yunqi tried to stop him, he would eventually find a way to escape from it all.

Then use all your efforts to retaliate.

Destroy everything she cares about, whether it's things or people.

Therefore, he should hate Zhou Niantang. He should just stand by and watch coldly, not caring whether she lives or dies, just like he did last time when she drowned.

Although he tried to ignore it, he still had to face a problem.

Why did I suffer from insomnia after she drowned? Why did the scene of Zhou Niantang sinking into the water in my dreams make me wake up again and again, but I felt fortunate that it was just a dream?

Pei Shi felt like he was going crazy, especially after he went out to buy the medicine and came back to feed it to Zhou Niantang.

He began to feel that his behavior was out of control, and his inner feelings were gradually eroding the rationality that he had always been proud of.

He wanted to escape. Perhaps as long as he stayed away from Zhou Niantang, he could return to his former self.

But in the end, he stayed.

Zhou Niantang felt that he had slept very tiredly.

She was always being picked up, put down, and helped up again in a blur. She was also being given water and I had no idea what she was being fed.

I also felt like someone was staring at me.

She didn't know how long she slept, but she dreamed of the scene when she fell into the water last time.

Pei Shi stood on the shore, watching himself sink bit by bit with cold eyes.

She felt so wronged in the dream, even though she had never done anything to hurt Pei Shi.

She had been trying to please him since the moment she first walked into the attic that summer when she was sixteen.

But I never get any good results.

Zhou Niantang struggled between being half asleep and half awake, and when he finally opened his eyes, he found himself in the guest room.

There was only a night light on in the room, and it was obvious that it was dark outside.

She hadn't realized how she had fallen asleep and found herself in a different place when she woke up.

When she turned around, she saw the person sitting on the chair next to her, staring at her with a serious look.

"what!"

She let out a scream, so what she dreamed was real?

There really was someone staring at her, and that person was Pei Shi!

"Why are you here!"

After she said this, she realized her voice was soft, as if all her strength had been drained out. This feeling was not unfamiliar to her at all, as she would always feel this way after being sick.

She sat up, hugged the quilt, and subconsciously shrank back.

Pei Shi had been observing the expression on her face since she opened her eyes, seeing her change from shock to alertness, and her eyes gradually darkening.

He didn't say anything, but Zhou Niantang gradually came to his senses and felt that his action was too embarrassing.

Since you have decided not to please this bastard anymore, what are you afraid of?

She threw back the quilt and stood on the bed. Although she felt a little dizzy and her legs were a little weak, she still held on to the wall to keep herself steady.

He asked him condescendingly, "Why are you in my house?"

She remembered that she had told him not to come in yesterday.

Unexpectedly, Pei Shi stood up, without even giving her a look, and walked towards the door, saying as he walked: "Zhou Niantang, you really know how to get yourself killed."

A person who obviously has no common sense actually dares to take on the responsibility of taking care of a boy with an IQ of only seven years old.

He even made himself have a fever. If I hadn't arrived, who knows what would have happened to these two people.
