The Year of Lihua: She Was Reborn

Xu Zhi tore open a space wormhole and appeared in front of Hua Ye's bed. His eyes were cold and his clothes were fluttering...

Then he took the object from the air and filled the teacup on the table with water, and then it drew a graceful arc in the air and flew steadily into his hand.

He stretched out his long arm and lifted Hua Ye's dizzy body up from the bed. His movements were gentle, as if he was holding a rare treasure, and then he handed the teacup to her mouth.

Hua Ye opened her mouth in a daze and gulped down several big gulps. The cool water moistened her throat, making her feel much better.

But her hands were out of control and she subconsciously held the teacup tightly, refusing to let go as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw.

It was not until the teacup was empty and no more water could be poured out that Hua Ye reluctantly let go of it. In a daze, he saw Xu Zhi's cold face.

She held Xuzhi's face with her wet hands and whispered softly.

"Didn't my mother arrange for you to live in the west wing? Why are you still here? If my father finds out, he will definitely break your legs!"

Xuzhi frowned slightly, looking at the drunk little girl in front of him, and a ripple appeared in his heart.

"Are you sure your father can break my legs?" He said in a frivolous and teasing tone.

"No, no, no... You're wrong. My father wants to break my legs, not yours. That old bastard is definitely no match for you..."

Hua Ye was gesticulating and dancing, waving his hands, pointing at a ball of invisible air, and then poking Xuzhi's chest with his fingers.

"Master, you are an immortal monster!"

Hua Ye felt the temperature around him drop by several degrees, and he quickly denied it: "No, no, it's a divine beast with unfathomable magical powers. Please don't be angry. I'm afraid my family can't bear your anger..."

Xuzhi found it a little funny to listen to her talking nonsense and expressing all her concerns. Then he looked at her rosy face and blurred eyes, which made him unable to take his eyes off her.

He stretched out his pale, bloodless index finger with distinct joints and placed it between her eyebrows, allowing her to shake her shaky head and look at him.

The cold touch seemed to sober her up a little, and she stared with wide eyes at the face that was vaguely visible in the dim candlelight.

"What should I do if I can't bear it?" Xu Zhi said a few words coldly with an expressionless face, pretending to be angry.

Hua Ye was so frightened that he suddenly came to his senses and explained in a panic, "My father and the others just love me too much. If they make things difficult for you... take it out on me. I have a tough skin and can handle it."

She held his index finger with one hand and placed it on her chest, and wrapped the other hand around his wrist, her coquettish nature was particularly obvious.

When Hua Ye thought about his forbearance today, and how he showed no impatience even though he was clearly not used to it, it seemed that he was not as cruel as he had imagined.

She raised her head high and looked at Xu Zhi, tears in her eyes as she continued, "Thank you, Master, for everything you did for me today!"

"I never need your verbal thanks!"

Xuzhi stretched out his other hand and gently pinched her chin, staring at her straight in the eyes and saying something meaningful.

"master……"

Hua Ye rolled her eyes at him and began to feel dizzy again. The alcohol shattered her clarity of mind.

She stood up and placed her hands on Xuzhi's broad shoulders, hugged him, and kissed her red lips on his flawless profile.

"Is this okay? I feel dizzy. I'm going to sleep now. We can talk about it tomorrow..." She retracted her right hand and rubbed her temple, speaking calmly.

"Not enough..." Xuzhi bit her ear lightly and spoke in her ear with a slight gasp, as if his heartstrings were easily touched by her.

Hua Ye, who screamed in shock, had his mouth covered by him, and the shameful sound was blocked back into his throat.

"Jianwu, you're squeezing me when you fall asleep!" Wudaomihu shouted while pushing Jianwu over.

"Hmm..." Jianwu moved his body after hearing the sound and fell into a deep sleep again.

The sound scared Hua Ye so much that his whole body suddenly became hot. A hot current rushed to his forehead and he felt ashamed.

"There's someone else in the room, what do you want to do?"

"No, I'm just used to sleeping in the same bed with you, so it's a little hard to fall asleep..."

Xuzhi pretended to be pitiful and a little annoyed, buried his head in her neck, and pushed her down on the bed. Then he turned over and lay on his side, holding her in his arms.

Hearing his low voice that sounded a little tired, Hua Ye no longer resisted. He looked up at his sleeping face with his eyes closed, his heart beating wildly.

She accidentally moved her lips closer to his and kissed his cool, thin lips lightly.

But she didn't expect to be caught red-handed. Xu Zhi held the back of her head with his big hand and then deepened the kiss that didn't hurt at all.

It came with great force yet was gentle and delicate, bit by bit, causing Hua Ye to fall silently...
