Xu Tingran brushed her stray hairs behind her ear, pulled her into a strong embrace, and said in a deep, gentle voice, "When he's not around, I can take care of feeding you."

Yun Yao was on the verge of tears, "Xu Tingran..."

Xu Tingran's voice trembled slightly from her chest, her tone slow and deliberate, yet as confident as if she were slowly torturing her prey, "It's alright, as long as he doesn't find out... Don't you want it?"

"...", she seems like a heartless woman who plays with men's feelings...

But she clearly isn't!

She was just absorbing energy...

It's all the fault of that damn system!

Xu Tingran opened the car door, laid her down on the back seat, then closed the door and pressed himself against her.

He took off his coat, ripped off his tie, and unbuttoned a few buttons on his collar.

Stray hairs fell across his forehead, adding a touch of carefree youthful spirit.

"After this is over, I'll take you to the hospital to find Lu Shuqing."

Yun Yao raised her hand to push him away, her eyelashes trembling like a butterfly trapped in a palm, its beautiful yet fragile wings flapping incessantly, but to no avail.

“Xu Tingran…”

Her voice was both sweet and pitiful.

It makes you want to bully her even more.

Xu Tingran pulled her hands above her head, his voice low and slow, with a seductive allure, "I will be very careful not to leave any trace, don't worry."

"...", we just agreed that she would absorb energy, so why are we kissing her now!

It’s true that men’s words are lies.

Where did that naive young man go?!

Xu Tingran pulled down her shoulder strap and lowered his head to kiss her tenderly.

Yun Yao groaned and tried to turn over to escape, but Xu Tingran grabbed her slender waist and pulled her into his arms.

Yun Yao was furious. "Xu Tingran, you promised that I would absorb your yang energy, so why are you the one doing this instead..."

Xu Tingran cupped her face and pecked at her soft, red lips, his voice tinged with laughter, "Being a lover isn't something you can do for nothing, you should at least get some reward... Besides, Yaoyao is quite comfortable too, isn't she?"

Yun Yao then realized that she had unconsciously put her arm around him...

This damn energy attraction!

Yun Yao withdrew her hand in annoyance and gave him a reproachful look.

Her shimmering gaze felt like a cat's paw pads pressing against his heart. Xu Tingran grabbed her waist and lowered his head to kiss her.

After all that commotion, Yun Yao leaned on his shoulder, panting heavily, her mind still hazy.

Xu Tingran encircled her petite body, a slight smile playing on his lips, and coaxed her in a low voice, "My little kitten, am I serving you well, hmm?"

Yunyao was enjoying absorbing energy and didn't want to talk.

Xu Tingran carried the person aside and picked up the wrinkled clothes to put on.

Yun Yao leaned over and hugged him, "Don't go."

Xu Tingran raised an eyebrow, tied her wrists with his tie, and pinned them to a corner.

"Then when can I become the third party and take your place, hmm? Make it clear, and then I'll let you hug me."

"What third party?!" Yun Yao was delirious, her eyes glazed over, and she spoke only subconsciously, "I've never been with anyone..."

Xu Tingran chuckled, "Never been in a relationship with anyone... Ha, so Lu Shuqing is also someone who throws himself at someone?"

As soon as Xu Tingran loosened his grip, Yun Yao broke free from his hold and pounced into his arms, rubbing against him.

Xu Tingran's deep eyes flashed with danger, "If you really like someone, maybe I can keep you here..."

Yun Yao keenly sensed the coldness emanating from him and quickly nuzzled against him in a flattering manner, saying, "Yes, I like you."

Xu Tingran smiled slightly and ruffled her hair. "Alright, I'll take you to find Lu Shuqing."

After arriving at the hospital.

Yun Yao's consciousness cleared up a bit, and thinking about what had just happened and what Xu Tingran had said... she simply didn't want to see anyone!

Xu Tingran escorted the person to the ward door, saying, "I won't go in."

He's not so magnanimous as to see his woman with someone else...

But, "How about a goodbye kiss before you leave, hmm?"

Before Yun Yao could speak, Xu Tingran pressed her against the door and kissed her.

The door creaked and rattled, interspersed with the sounds of intimate kisses...

Lu Shuqing heard the commotion and guessed what was going on... but unfortunately, he had a cast on one leg and couldn't move it, so he could only angrily pound the wall!

After Yun Yao entered the room, Lu Shuqing was afraid of frightening her, so he could only suppress his anger.

He smiled gently at the girl, though a hint of anger could be seen in his eyes...

"Are you sleepy? Do you want to go to bed and rest for a bit?"

"Well, sort of."

Lu Shuqing lifted a corner of the blanket. "Then sleep with me."

"That's not a good idea...", sleeping squeezed together with the patient, don't hurt him.

Lu Shuqing hooked his arm around her waist and pulled her into his arms. "The bed is wide enough for one more person like you. Besides, I can't sleep well at night if I don't hold you."

"..." When did he start needing to hold her to sleep?! Before, when she slept on the sofa every day, he slept perfectly fine!

Lu Tingran looked at the fair and delicate body in front of her, which was flushed pink in every part, with bluish-purple marks scattered among it...

Aside from the traces she left behind... which Yun Yao herself couldn't see... but in places she could see, there were traces left by other men.

At that moment, the cell phone on the bedside table vibrated twice.

Lu Shuqing picked up the phone and opened the message...

Yun Yao turned her head to look at him, and he immediately stuffed his phone under his pillow. "I'm not sleepy, go to sleep."

Yun Yao was still a little worried. "If I accidentally crush you, wake me up."

Lu Shuqing chuckled softly, "Mm."

With her small frame, how could she possibly hurt him?

After everyone falls asleep.

Lu Shuqing lowered his head and kissed her, then took out his phone and deleted Xu Tingran's messages.

……

Lu Shuqing worked in his hospital room during his hospital stay.

Lu Yuxi brought him some nourishing soup made by the housekeeper. "It's all my fault for calling you. Otherwise, you wouldn't have bumped into the railing because you were distracted."

Lu Shuqing looked down at the report, too lazy to look at her, "Go to the old house less often in the future. The elders are getting old, don't bother them."

Lu Yuxi pouted, peeling the apple crookedly in her hand, "They were so happy when I went to see them, they even said it was lively as soon as I arrived..."

"Even your dog dislikes you, don't you know that?"

"...Hmph, I'm just lively by nature. Brother Shuqing, didn't you notice that the ward has become less deserted since I arrived?"

Lu Shuqing turned her head to look at the person lying asleep on the bed, and scolded her in a low voice, "Be quiet."

"What's with the quiet? It's broad daylight, not nighttime. Why are you worried about disturbing the neighbors?"

Lu Shuqing glanced at his assistant and gestured for him to take the person away.

Upon receiving instructions from her boss, the assistant looked at Lu Yuxi and said, "Ms. Lu, the boss is injured and needs to rest. Why don't you go shopping at the nearby mall if you're free?"

"Don't go."

The assistant hadn't really been asking her a question. "Ms. Lu, if you're not leaving, the bodyguards are outside, what do you think?"

Lu Yuxi glared angrily at the assistant, then at Lu Shuqing.

"Hmph, Lu Shuqing, why do you always keep people at arm's length? You don't even have a woman you like. Would it kill you to try and get to know me?"

The assistant forcefully took the person out.

Yun Yao was woken up by the noise. She rubbed her eyes, threw off the covers, got out of bed, and looked at the weather outside. "Why is it raining again today?"

"The weather will clear up in a few days."
