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

She typed back: "The offline gathering is coming up soon, so we'll see each other then. Once school starts, there will be plenty of opportunities to see my boyfriend. He's really not like what you think; you have to trust my judgment."

As with every other time before, no one believed him…

Sika said: "[Actually, Susu, you're just too young. You're surrounded by classmates who are all around ten years old. Once a man who's more mature than your peers appears, you're easily swayed by his words.]"

This young girl can talk about love with such confidence and expertise these days.

The response was naturally met with a chorus of agreement…

What else could Xu Su say? She even wanted to take a picture of Zhou Mochen and post it in the group chat…

His good looks alone are enough to salvage his reputation!

But her remaining rationality stopped her.

Forget it, she knows how good Zhou Mochen is herself.

…………

Back home, Xu Su had just finished washing up and walked to the bedside when Zhou Mochen pushed her down. The two hadn't made love for a week or so, and holding the soft, delicate girl in his arms was irresistible.

A barrage of kisses rained down on her, and the buttons of her pajamas were undone one by one. Xu Su felt a little flustered…

Zhou Mochen also noticed that something was wrong with her. Although the girl didn't push him away, she was completely lacking her usual initiative.

He paused, took her hand and placed it on his collar, coaxing, "Sweetie, help me take it off."

The man's eyes were tinged with lust, his gaze dark and deep, his expression unfathomable. Coupled with his handsome face, sweating on his nose, so close to hers, he was incredibly alluring, yet inexplicably frightening.

Xu Su's throat went dry. She swallowed hard, realizing she was indeed bewitched and had no intention of refusing. Her fingers trembled as she slowly unbuttoned his shirt...

“This is my darling…” Zhou Mochen’s brows relaxed, and he leaned down to kiss Xu Su’s lips again.

The man's low, husky voice murmured her name, and Xu Su felt her bones melt. Reason vanished, and her fingers, which had been unbuttoning her clothes, paused for half a second before quickly speeding up the process of pulling them off.

Zhou Mochen's kiss landed on her shoulder and neck, and he chuckled softly in her ear, utterly adoring her eagerness.

As Xu Su's consciousness was gradually eroded in her last moments, she only remembered to remind him to take protective measures.

…………

afterwards…

Xu Su's face was flushed from the indulgence, and she was so tired that she couldn't even fully open her eyes. She couldn't help but mutter to herself that male beauty was a bad thing!

She nestled in Zhou Mochen's arms, took his hand and placed it on her waist, complaining, "Give me a massage, my back is killing me."

"Why are you still so delicate after all these times?" Zhou Mochen slowly massaged her waist, teasing her with a smile, "Su Su, when will you stop refusing to do things halfway through?"

Xu Su's eyelashes trembled, and the blush that had just faded from her face returned. She couldn't help but pinch his waist, and said with a shameful and indignant expression, "Zhou Mochen, if you keep talking nonsense, I won't even do half of it, I'll just start cheating!"

"This is not okay,"

Zhou Mochen sighed and smiled in a gesture of surrender, saying, "Good Su Su, have you ever heard the saying, 'Better to have nothing than to have nothing?' That's my current state, you understand? A monk who has tasted meat can't eat vegetarian food anymore. He can only return to secular life and can no longer chant scriptures."

Better to have no descendants than to have descendants who never have them...

A monk who has tasted meat cannot stomach vegetarian food…

Every word he uttered was slurred with vulgarity, making Xu Su's heart pound, while at the same time he felt somewhat awkward.

"But if we do it so frequently, won't I get pregnant?" she asked worriedly. "I'm still young, I haven't even gone to university yet, I don't want to have children."

Zhou Mochen was taken aback, not expecting her to be worried about this. After a few seconds of hesitation, he said, "I will take measures to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Xu Su knew, of course, that he always took good safety precautions, but she was still shaken by the blunder that day.

Seeing that she still looked troubled, Zhou Mochen patted the top of her head and said in a consultative tone, "You're so worried. What can I do to put your mind at ease? I'll do whatever you say."

Xu Su's first thought was naturally to have him get a tubal ligation, since that's what he did in her previous life, and it was indeed very effective. She was already thirty years old and had never had an accident without ever using any contraceptive products.

Can…

Xu Su hesitated for a few seconds: "How about I take the medicine?"

"No, get that idea out of your head!" Zhou Mochen tightened his grip on her waist and warned, "You're so delicate, don't try anything funny. You know, every medicine has some side effects."

I knew he wouldn't agree!

Xu Su pondered for a while, then looked up at him and said, "Then let's reduce the frequency and only do it during the safe period from now on. That way, we'll have double protection."

"..." Zhou Mochen remained silent for a long time, staring at her quietly, his expression gradually turning bitter and resentful: "Su Su, you really didn't mean to punish me?"

"...No, I'm just worried about an unplanned pregnancy."

Xu Su's expression was as clear as day: "I didn't mean to punish you with this, Zhou Mochen. Don't you realize how much I like you?"

Zhou Mochen clicked his tongue lightly upon hearing this, then helplessly pinched her waist, his tone full of resignation: "I believe you, I believe everything you say..."

Finally, he didn't say anything more, but tightened his arms and pulled her into his embrace. He reached out and stroked Xu Su's long hair, gently kissing her forehead as he coaxed her to sleep.

The gentle touch on his forehead felt like a feather brushing against him, and Xu Su's heart, which he considered quite hard, softened little by little.

She wrapped her arms around his waist and couldn't help but say, "Never mind, never mind..."

No matter how outrageous the rules she sets, when someone really wants to do something, they'll always find a way to seduce her into compromising...

Since that's the case, it's better to compromise sooner rather than later...

Xu Su realized that her rebellious nature and her love for arguing and teasing him had been gradually worn down by the gentle embrace Zhou Mochen had created.

Often, before she even starts acting up, she's already backed down, afraid he'll put on that pitiful look again...

You should know that she used to weigh 90 pounds, and her bones alone weighed a whopping 88 pounds!

They fell for Zhou Mochen's carefully crafted 'net'.

…………

Love was sweet and harmonious, and friendship was also harmonious. In the following days, Xu Su declined Shen Chen's invitation and accompanied her two good friends, Huang Feng and Qian Jia, to look for jobs.

Perhaps it was good luck, but everything went smoothly. Huang Feng found a job at a milk tea shop in just two days, while Qian Jia went to work at a chain coffee shop.

The two stores are not far apart, both are near the school, and are also close to Xu Su's house, making commuting very convenient.

Once they found jobs and started working, Xu Su, who had been busy looking for jobs with her best friends for two consecutive days and then having meals together, suddenly had some free time.

She had barely rested at home for a day when Shen Chen came to her door that very evening and dragged her out.
