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

"Yes!" Xu Su answered decisively.

It's more than just being angry...

"What if she touches me?" Zhou Mochen persisted with this question: "What would you do?"

Xu Su pinched his arm. "See where you touched it. But no matter where it is, I'll be angry. Zhou Mochen, do you remember how petty I am?"

“I remember, that’s why no other woman touched it.” He was clearly satisfied with the answer, smiling as he kissed Xu Su’s cheek: “How about answering me one more question?”

Xu Su raised an eyebrow: "Go ahead and ask."

Zhou Mochen lowered his eyes to meet her gaze: "If I really fall for someone else, will you try to keep me?"

Xu Su's pupils dilated involuntarily; she never expected him to ask such a question.

Just outrageous!

"No way!" Xu Su shouted, "What are you thinking? If you ever really fall for someone else, I'll make room for the new person right away and I won't leave anyone out of your sight."

Did you try to persuade him to change his mind?

Xu Su was so angry she almost laughed; he really dared to think that far.

"Zhou Mochen, let me put this to you: I do like you, but not to the point of giving up myself and being unable to live without you. If you dare to annoy me, I will take back all my feelings without hesitation."

Xu Su took a deep breath and met his gaze without wavering: "Perhaps after we leave, I will feel sad for you for a long time, but I believe I can get over it."

After all, she would always love herself more than her lover.

The premise for her liking and feeling sorry for Zhou Mochen is that his actions and his affection have moved her.

Not only the thirty-five-year-old Zhou Mochen from her past life, but also the one in front of her, moved her.

But if one day those things that moved her are gone, then why should she like or feel sorry for someone who is not worth it at all?

Her words were frighteningly calm and clear-headed…

Zhou Mochen's face darkened involuntarily, and he regretted asking such a question.

He's only had two good days, and he's already lost sight of his place. Isn't asking this question just asking himself a question?

What are your expectations?

In this relationship, he was so deeply in love that he gave up himself, and he was the only one who could not live without the other person.

In the same situation, if she took a fancy to another man, let alone just trying to keep him, even if she let him...

Anyway, he would do whatever it took to win her back.

Zhou Mochen remained motionless for a long time. Xu Su was furious at his question, and seeing his gloomy expression and silence, she became even angrier.

How could I possibly speak on my own initiative?

In silence, the car pulled up in the underground parking garage of Royal Central.

As soon as they got out of the car, Huang Chao visibly relaxed...

Xu Su pursed her lips and walked forward, leaving Zhou Mochen behind.

It wasn't until they entered the elevator that Zhou Mochen finally came to his senses and reached out to put his arm around the sulking Xu Su: "Don't take my question seriously. I was just asking casually. I didn't mean anything by it."

"There aren't that many casual questions."

Xu Su pouted and muttered, "So-called casual questions are all tests. What are you trying to test? Do you want me to say that even if you change your mind, I will cry and beg you to stay?"

"..." Zhou Mochen paused, then suddenly laughed and admitted, "This proves you love me enough, doesn't it?"

“If that’s your perspective, then there’s some truth to it.” Xu Su smiled as well: “So, you’re not satisfied with my answer?”

That must be exhausting for her, constantly being tested, and having to think about what the 'teacher' would consider the correct answer for every question she answered.

Zhou Mochen tightened his grip on her hand and said, "Your answer was within my expectations; I have no complaints."

As soon as he finished speaking, the elevator doors opened.

Xu Su didn't want to continue the topic, so she quickly walked outside.

She went straight to the bedroom to run the bathwater, not wanting to say another word to him.

This person is getting more and more greedy. Does she have to make her lose herself for love in order to show that she loves enough?

They're just asking for more and more each time.

From the beginning, she was satisfied with just a nice look, but when she started liking him, coaxing him, and even taking the initiative to kiss him, she still wasn't satisfied even after doing the most intimate things with him.

She's still thinking that he's fallen for someone else, and that she's willing to give up her own feelings and take the initiative to keep him.

Xu Su had no idea about Zhou Mochen's humble mentality. At this moment, she even felt that the capitalist's PUA was indeed deeply ingrained and had begun to take effect imperceptibly.

She secretly reminded herself that she must maintain her willpower and not be influenced by his sweet talk. If she really followed his ideas and changed herself, she might end up feeling that she was the one who made the mistake.

No matter how much she likes someone, she can't completely give up her own identity. Xu Su will not allow herself to become like that; that's her bottom line.

She will always love herself the most!

While taking a bath, Xu Su pondered Zhou Mochen's actions and gradually felt a chill run down her spine.

She discovered that after they got together, Zhou Mochen always acted as if he was deeply in love and was insecure about the relationship, which made her feel more guilty and more soft-hearted.

Step by step, they followed his wishes and walked into the trap he had set.

She coaxed him, kissed him, and grew to like him more and more, eventually sleeping with him on her own initiative.

Even though he took advantage of her in every way, she still reflected on herself, always feeling that she had gone too far and hadn't offered herself to him sooner so that he could have his way.

Thinking about what would happen next, Xu Su felt a chill run down her spine…

She wondered if she was overthinking things. Given Zhou Mochen's methods, showing weakness was nothing to him in order to gain more of her affection.

But when she thought about his forbearance and tolerance during the year they lived together, Xu Su felt that she must have misunderstood.

She was traumatized by that sick man from her past life.

Too vigilant…

Xu Su got up after soaking in the water until it cooled down, wrapped herself in a bath towel, and went outside.

Zhou Mochen had already showered and was lying on the bed in the guest room waiting. When he saw her come out like this, he was a little stunned: "Didn't you take any clothes in?"

"Hmm..." Xu Su held the bath towel, took a set of pajamas, and went back to the bathroom to change.

When she came out again, Zhou Mochen had already gotten out of bed and was standing by the dressing table, holding a hairdryer and waving at her.

Xu Su: "..."

After blow-drying her hair and applying skincare products, she stood hesitantly by the bed, looking at the man who had returned to the bed and was staring at her menacingly. For the first time, she was so afraid of the night.

Seeing her like this, Zhou Mochen chuckled and came over to pull her away: "Su Su, you're so scared, I'm starting to wonder if I really did something to make you uncomfortable."

Xu Su clutched the hem of her clothes and took two steps back to avoid his hand, looking troubled: "Why don't you go sleep next door?"

Zhou Mochen tilted his head and looked at her: "Why?"

Xu Su bluntly stated, "I'm going to my grandma's house tomorrow, and I don't want to do it."

“Then I won’t do it.” Zhou Mochen hadn’t planned to do anything tonight anyway. “I just want to hold you while we sleep, and I promise I won’t touch you at all. I mean what I say.”
