After the real daughter was reborn, the girl who traveled through the book was cannon fodder

That wasn't right. Lou Jiyun already had his own place, so how could he just end up staying in Plum Garden? Why had I just agreed to go clothes shopping with him without thinking, and he almost steered clear of me, ignoring this crucial issue?

Su Banxia secretly regretted in her heart that she was so careless!

She took a deep breath, calmed her inner panic, and tried to make her expression look calmer. Then she turned her head, looked directly at Lou Jiyun, and said with courage: "You have your own home. You have stayed here for a whole night. Besides, I am much better now. You can go back. I can take care of myself!"

"Are you so anxious to get me out?"

"Either I'm going to drive you away, or you...you and me..." Su Banxia's voice gradually lowered, her eyes dodging, her hands unconsciously twisted together in front of her, her fingers entangled with each other nervously.

The two of them were originally sitting on a double sofa, but there was a space as wide as a person between them, as if there was an invisible barrier.

Lou Jiyun looked at the distance and sighed silently, his eyes filled with helplessness. He leaned slightly towards Su Banxia.

As Lou Jiyun approached, the sofa beside her collapsed softly. Su Banxia keenly noticed this change and subconsciously wanted to move to the other side, trying to increase the distance between them.

But when she moved her body back, she found that she had reached the end of the sofa and there was no way to go back.

A trace of panic flashed across her eyes, and her heart beat involuntarily faster, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.

Su Banxia didn't know what Lou Jiyun wanted to do. The uneasiness in her heart grew stronger and stronger. She subconsciously clutched the cuffs of her clothes with her hands.

Lou Jiyun adjusted his posture slowly, turning around almost head-on to face Su Banxia. One hand rested casually on his knee, his movements natural and graceful; the other hand stretched back, seemingly casually landing on the sofa behind her.

This posture seemed to have trapped Su Banxia under his body, leaving her nowhere to escape.

"Xiao Xiatian." Lou Jiyu called softly, his voice low and gentle, as if carrying a kind of bewitching power.

"Hmm?" Su Banxia's voice seemed to be lingering in her throat, so thin and light that it was almost inaudible.

"Let's not talk about how you've been avoiding me for a while now. Starting from yesterday, it seems like you've been trying every possible way to make me leave, right?"

"What...what?" Su Banxia widened her eyes in surprise, her eyes full of astonishment. She never thought that Lou Jiyun could see through her thoughts so thoroughly.

Her cheeks flushed crimson instantly, and she was in a state of panic. She wondered to herself: Was I really that obvious?! Would he... think I was bad?

"Is not it?"

"But you're a man living with me... and we're not in a relationship..." Su Banxia bit her lower lip, and her white teeth left a faint mark on her pink lips.

"You are not feeling well, and it is my choice to take care of you. Not to mention that you are my good brother's sister, just because I am a teacher and you are a student, I should also care about you a little... What's more... we are now..." Lou Jiyun paused slightly, took a deep breath, his fingers tapping lightly on the sofa unconsciously, and he felt a little nervous in his heart.

At this moment, he mustered up his courage, looked directly into Su Banxia's eyes, and slowly said, "We are not boyfriend and girlfriend now, so what is our relationship?"

Su Banxia raised her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes trembling gently like butterfly wings. Her eyes met Lou Jiyun's, and a hint of shyness and panic flashed in her eyes.

At noon, the warm autumn sun streamed in through the window, its gentle yellow light like a veil between the two of them. In this quiet atmosphere, an indescribable feeling permeated, sweet yet slightly tense.

He likes her...

So is she.

It was just that after Lou Jiyun confessed his feelings once, their relationship developed quickly, but there was always a layer of paper between them that was never broken.

Su Banxia used her fingers to tightly grasp the cuffs of her clothes, and her fingertips almost dug a hole in the cuffs of her clothes.

Like, love, these words are often on the lips of young people nowadays, but when they really meet someone they like, they find it difficult to say it, as if once they say it, this precious feeling will no longer be pure.

Lou Jiyun stared at Su Banxia quietly. Seeing her lowered her head and said nothing, a hint of disappointment flashed across his eyes, which originally held some expectation. But soon, he curled his lips and smiled, and that smile was full of tenderness and pampering.

He adjusted his sitting position slightly, leaning forward slightly, his eyes fixed on Su Banxia's face, and spoke softly, "Maybe it's influenced by my profession. Whatever I do, I always hope to see results quickly. I like direct and fast work efficiency. But..."

"Don't feel embarrassed."

"I can wait until you feel I'm qualified to be your boyfriend and are willing to acknowledge our relationship."

Su Banxia was so nervous that her palms were burning hot. Fine beads of sweat oozed out of her palms and soaked the corners of her clothes.

Logically speaking, both of them knew how they felt about each other, but she still felt uneasy and restless. An indescribable uneasiness spread in her heart. She bit her lower lip slightly, and her pearly teeth sank lightly into her pink lips, leaving a shallow mark.

"I know you have me in your heart, right?"

Su Banxia's eyelashes trembled slightly, fluttering like a frightened butterfly. She still didn't speak, but just bit her lip slightly, struggling fiercely in her heart.

"Take your time to think about it. There's no need to rush to answer me." Lou Jiyun looked at Su Banxia deeply, his eyes full of pity. "It's indeed time for me to go back."

He originally planned to take this opportunity to ask for a formal relationship, but when he saw the little girl in front of him frowning and looking hesitant, he softened his heart. He knew very well that after understanding each other's feelings, everything could be done slowly. Thinking that she was racking her brains to try to get him to leave, how could he bear to make things difficult for her?

Lou Jiyun slowly stood up, his movements graceful and composed. He adjusted his slightly ill-fitting clothes and once again fixed his gaze on Su Banxia, ​​eyes filled with longing. "Then I'll be leaving first. Take care of yourself."

Su Banxia sat quietly on the sofa, a complex mix of emotions swirling within her. She wasn't a stone-cold person, so how could she not notice Lou Jiyun's thoughtfulness and tenderness?

Those meticulous care and those affectionate eyes have already planted sweet seeds in her heart.

Just as Lou Jiyun was about to get up and leave the sofa, Su Banxia seemed to have made up her mind. She suddenly reached out and tightly grasped his forearm.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Lou Jiyun was slightly stunned, then turned his head and looked at Su Banxia with a gentle smile on his face.

Lou Jiyun could clearly feel Su Banxia's grip on his forearm tighten, her fingertips practically digging into his skin. Her entire body was tense, like a fully drawn bow, as if concealing something unspeakable. He didn't rush her, but patiently sat back down, quietly waiting for her to speak.

Su Banxia's nerves were stretched to the limit, her heart pounding wildly in her chest, as if it was about to burst through. Her breathing became rapid and disordered, and every breath she took seemed to be gathering courage for herself.

As time went by, her face turned redder and redder, like a ripe apple.

In the sad and gentle autumn light, her pretty little face was dyed with a touching blush, spreading from her cheeks to her ears, and then to her neck, as if it had been carefully rendered by the autumn light.

Lou Jiyun's gaze was fixed on Su Banxia's face, his eyes full of tenderness and doting.

He watched her face turn red inch by inch, and watched her purse her lips tightly. Her originally pink lips now seemed to be dyed a layer of maple leaf red by the autumn light, and they were delicate and tempting.

His throat rolled slightly involuntarily, and an irresistible impulse surged in his heart.

His heartbeat also began to speed up, and a strong desire spread in his heart - he... wanted to kiss her.

However, reason told him that the current situation was not appropriate.

He tried hard to control his inner impulse, and his lips were unconsciously pursed straight. His originally gentle facial features seemed even colder at this moment, but his eyes still contained an unconcealable deep affection.

"Actually..." Su Banxia lowered her head and hesitated for a long time. She took a deep breath, slowly raised her head, and met Lou Jiyun's gaze. "It's not that I don't like you, I just don't know how to handle our relationship. I've never been in a relationship before, and I have no idea what it's like. I don't know how to respond to you..."

Su Banxia seemed to want to explain to him the various inexplicable emotions in her heart...

Lou Jiyun was too direct. She felt that everything was developing too fast and out of the right track. She didn't know how to deal with it.

As for Lou Jiyun, he was already very happy to hear her words.

However, Su Banxia's speech became more and more confused. Her originally clear thoughts became a mess under the tension and anxiety. Her speech speed became faster and faster, her breathing became more and more rapid, and her cheeks turned red like a ripe apple.

"Xiao Xia Tian." Lou Jiyun looked at Su Banxia's flustered look and spoke softly, wanting her to stop and speak slowly, his tone full of tenderness and comfort.

But before he could finish his words, Su Banxia seemed to be suddenly driven by a force. She took advantage of the force of grabbing his forearm and leaned forward suddenly, her movements eager and impulsive.

Her lips gently touched Lou Jiyun's lips, and at that moment, time seemed to freeze.

When their eyes met, Lou Jiyun's eyes widened instantly, filled with surprise and astonishment.

He had never expected Su Banxia to do such a thing, and he was stunned.

Su Banxia originally thought that Lou Jiyun interrupted her because he was impatient and couldn't bear to listen anymore.

So, in extreme panic and anxiety, she made this impulsive move, wanting to prove her love for him.

After the kiss, not only was Lou Jiyun stunned, but she herself was also stunned. She widened her eyes, her eyes full of shock and regret, as if she couldn't believe what she had just done.

"Professor Lou, I..." Su Banxia's voice was as small as a mosquito, and the fingers that were holding Lou Jiyun's forearm loosened slightly. The blush on her face spread from her cheeks to her ears, and she fell into an extremely embarrassed state.

The next second, Su Banxia felt her hand being held back by a powerful force. Before she could react, Lou Jiyun's figure quickly approached. She subconsciously leaned back and fell heavily onto the soft sofa.

Before she could recover, Lou Jiyun's kiss came as powerful and domineering as a storm. The hot breath surrounded her in an instant, leaving her almost no room to respond.

Su Banxia's body instinctively began to struggle, her hands waving wildly, trying to break free from Lou Jiyun's restraints.

However, Lou Jiyun just raised his hand slightly and held her restless hand tightly, making her unable to move.

In the past, Lou Jiyun's kisses were always as gentle as water, with a hint of tenderness, but today's kiss was as strong as a wildfire, coming with great force, instantly igniting every nerve in her body.

Su Banxia's head was dizzy and her body was limp, as if she had lost all her strength, and even her consciousness began to gradually fade away.

As time went by, the feeling of suffocation caused by difficulty breathing became more and more intense, so strong that she felt she might really die from lack of oxygen in the next second. She used up the last bit of strength in her body, reached out and pushed Lou Jiyun hard.

Lou Jiyun noticed Su Banxia's struggle and pulled away slightly. His originally domineering and strong eyes instantly became extremely gentle.

His eyes locked tightly with Su Banxia's, and in a voice so gentle it could drip with water, he whispered, "If you say you don't dislike me, then you like me, right?"

Su Banxia was finally able to breathe deeply. She greedily breathed in the fresh air, her chest heaving violently.

But just when her breathing had calmed down a little, she was asked this question by Lou Jiyun again. Her cheeks turned red, her eyes were full of shyness and panic, and she didn't dare to look directly into Lou Jiyun's eyes.

"Why aren't you talking? Tell me..." Lou Jiyun leaned in slightly, his nose almost touching Su Banxia's nose, and his warm breath gently brushed across her face. "Do you like me? Only me?"

Su Banxia felt that her life was about to be lost in his hands. Her only wish at this moment was that Lou Jiyun could leave her quickly so that she could breathe freely.

In this anxious mood, she said softly with a hoarse voice: "Well, I like you..."

Su Banxia originally thought that if she answered the question, Lou Jiyun would probably forgive her.

But she never expected that what she got in return was an even more passionate kiss from Lou Jiyun. He leaned over again and pressed his lips heavily on hers. That scorching kiss seemed to melt her...

Su Banxia originally wanted to send him away, but the two of them leaned on the sofa, and time flew by ridiculously fast. In the end, he just said he would have dinner with her, and then...

That night, Lou Jiyun did not go back again.
