Locking away my heart and love! Going back to 2000 to be a top student again.

Their hands were clasped tightly together...

After a long, long time, Zhou Mochen looked up from the darkness, squeezed her palm, and then let go of her hand.

Gentle and meticulous wiping and cleaning.

After helping Xu Su get dressed, he bent down and kissed her lips.

With her chin grasped, Xu Su had no way to escape and was forced to accept the kiss.

She simply frowned and let him kiss her, and when the kiss became passionate, she couldn't help but raise her hand to cup his face.

At this moment, Xu Su even felt that he was doing it on purpose, indulging her in everything and wanting to give her the best experience in everything.

She became increasingly dependent on him…

"You cried?" Touching the dampness on her eyelashes, Zhou Mochen chuckled softly, "Is it so comfortable?"

"Mmm..." Xu Su wrapped her arms around his neck, buried her head in the crook of his neck, and hummed and rubbed against him: "I like it when you do this."

She preferred the feeling just now to last night's, at least she could still control herself.

“That won’t do…” Seeing through her thoughts at a glance, Zhou Mochen hugged the girl in his arms tighter and sighed, “Su Su, I don’t like vegetarian food, I have to eat meat to feel full.”

Especially after breaking my vow of celibacy, I couldn't help but think about the events of last night all afternoon.

If it weren't for his heartache for her taking over, he would have definitely had a bite to eat tonight...

She felt better now, but he…

Xu Su noticed too. Feeling a little embarrassed, she moved away from his waist, took his arm, and asked, "Do you... need my help?"

Xu Su couldn't help but praise herself for how understanding she was.

As a result, Zhou Mochen smiled and kissed her: "Rest, you don't need to. You'll complain about your sore arms later."

Even though she was already acting incredibly spoiled, he still felt he hadn't indulged her enough. Ignoring the fact that he hadn't yet relieved himself, he gently patted her back to lull her to sleep.

Xu Su nestled in Zhou Mochen's arms, inhaling the faint, cool woody scent emanating from him, and comfortably squinted her eyes.

What a paradise of tenderness this is!

When she was first reborn, if someone had told Xu Su that Zhou Mochen could be so gentle three years later, she probably wouldn't have believed it no matter what.

Thinking about this, Xu Su felt somewhat fortunate that she was willing to like him and give him a chance in this lifetime.

Otherwise... how could someone as gentle as Zhou Mochen appear?

…………

When Xu Su woke up the next day, the person next to her was no longer there. She glanced at the time and lingered in bed for a while before getting up.

We'll skip breakfast and just have lunch.

While washing up, Xu Su looked at the marks on her neck in the mirror.

It's almost completely gone, and I should be able to go out in the next day or two.

She felt a little relieved. Her grandmother had called yesterday to ask when she was coming back, and it would be best if she could go back sooner.

I opened the door and walked into the living room. Shen Chen was still there, sitting in the same position, making tea.

Amidst the rising steam, Shen Chen focused intently on arranging the tea set, his expression aloof and devoid of his usual smile. Xu Su could even detect a hint of asceticism emanating from him.

He hardly resembled a carefree playboy. At this moment, the indifference emanating from Shen Chen's very bones made it believable that he was a noble young master from a family who had never been involved with women.

Zhou Mochen was sitting opposite Shen Chen, holding a cup of tea between his fingers, taking a small sip, and whispering something. A smile played on his lips, and his demeanor was carefree and unrestrained, making him seem more like a playboy than Shen Chen.

Xu Su paused, stunned, unable to tell who was better between the two.

Both men were facing sideways, and upon hearing footsteps, they both turned their heads to look over.

"Are you awake?" Zhou Mochen got up and pulled her to sit down.

Shen Chen poured a cup of tea and handed it over: "You can still sleep quite a bit, even though the sun is high in the sky."

"..." Feeling that his words had a hidden meaning, Xu Su pursed her lips and remained silent.

Her heart was pounding so fast that she couldn't help but grip the hand of the person next to her tightly.

Zhou Mochen asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing..." Xu Su shook her head, holding his hand tightly, not knowing how to tell him that seeing the two of them sitting opposite each other so early in the morning was quite a visual shock.

Xu Su was surprised that her heart was pounding so hard. She had never known before that she was a sucker for good looks.

"Can you two be a little more discreet and stop showing off your love in front of me?" Shen Chen looked at the two hands clasped together across from him and gave a faint smile. "Are you trying to force me to find a girlfriend?"

"Go ahead and find someone if you want. Isn't it better to have a proper girlfriend than to spend all your time hanging out in nightclubs?"

Speaking of this, Xu Su thought of Huang Feng's special filter for him and couldn't help but turn to look at him: "But Shen Chen, you can find anyone, just don't touch my friend!"

Zhou Mochen raised an eyebrow and asked, "What friend?"

It sounds like there's a story he doesn't know about.

Shen Chen was so angry at her serious warning that he laughed: "I'm not that desperate. Don't treat me like a thief. Besides, I don't know many of your friends. I only know that Huang Feng..."

As he spoke, something occurred to him, and he couldn't help but raise his voice: "She has a crush on me?"

Xu Su hadn't even had a chance to speak.

Shen Chen scoffed and continued, "So what if she likes me? You can't blame me for that, can you? She likes me, so you should be watching out for her trying to make a move on me, not me trying to make a move on your friend, understand?"

He'd said everything he wanted to say. Xu Su stared wide-eyed, never expecting this guy to be so shameless!

"Who would want to touch you! Besides, Huang Feng doesn't like you, so stop being delusional!"

Xu Su was speechless. "In short, you should keep your distance from my friends, not just Huang Feng. Don't give girls unrealistic fantasies. If you dare to mess with my friends and actually get any of them to like you, then we'll break off our friendship."

Then let's break off all contact...

"I made them like me? Do I need their liking?" Shen Chen's face darkened instantly, and he looked at her with a cold smile: "Xu Su, I think I've been pretty good to you, haven't I? What do you take me for?"

What did she think of him?

He was completely unaware of Huang Feng's intentions and never had any designs on her friends, yet he was being warned like this.

It's normal for women to like him, does she think everyone is as blind as her?

Shen Chen was furious and stared intently at Xu Su: "You're cheating, aren't you? Your friend has taken a liking to me, is that my fault? You're going to break off all ties with me? What, just because they're friends, does that mean I should step aside?"

His attitude, as if he had ultimately misplaced his trust, left Xu Su somewhat bewildered…

"...I was just giving you a casual warning."

Xu Su was taken aback, not expecting him to be so angry about the breakup. She quickly explained, "I'm just scared. What if my friend really falls for you? I can't just stand by and watch her jump into a fire!"

“A sea of ​​fire.” Shen Chen repeated it with amusement, put down his teacup, stood up and looked at her: “Xu Su, you can rest assured, not just anyone can enter my sea of ​​fire.”
