Rong Si found it hard to imagine what he would do if one day Su Jiu stopped liking him and abandoned him.
Seeing that Rong Si was now in a bad mood, Su Jiu realized that she had said the wrong thing. She quickly hugged his arm and looked at him brightly. “I’m sorry! I won’t say it again. Don’t be angry, okay?”
When she tried to wheedle, it definitely worked. Rong Si felt helpless. “I’m not angry.”
“I’m glad you’re not!” Su Jiu laughed. Suddenly, her stomach hurt. She gasped and bent over.
Rong Si saw that she was uncomfortable, so he worriedly asked, “Should we go to the doctor’s?”
Su Jiu shook her head. “No, I’m just really full. There’s no need to go to the doctor.”
There was nothing he could do about her. Rong Si crouched down in front of her. “Come on up. Let’s get some medicine.”
“You want to carry me?” Su Jiu looked up at him, surprised. They were on the street. Does he not care what people think?
Rong Si tilted his head to look at her. His long eyelashes and high-bridged nose were especially handsome. “Get on,” he repeated.
“Okay…” Su Jiu replied. She felt a little embarrassed as she lay on his back. Then, she wrapped her arms around his neck and let him carry her.
The two of them received all sorts of looks from the people around them, some surprised, some envious, and some disgusted. Nevertheless, Rong Si carried Su Jiu on his back without flinching. As far as he was concerned, other people’s opinions didn’t matter. All he cared about was her.
Su Jiu was a little embarrassed and buried her face in his neck.
As they walked, Rong Si seemed to slow down. “Idiot,” he finally said.
His voice was suppressed, as if he was trying his best to control something.
“Yes?” Su Jiu looked up, confused.
Why did he suddenly call me an idiot?
“Don’t get too close. You’re breathing into my neck.” Did she know the tickling sensation was making him ache all over? Especially his heart, which felt as if it had been feathered over and over again?
Feeling his breathing quicken, Su Jiu understood it. She instantly got embarrassed and quickly raised her face.
Out of the corner of her eye, she stole a glance at Rong Si’s side profile, which seemed to be carefully outlined, and his tense jaw. She suddenly wanted to laugh.
It turns out that… the cold and abstinent little villain can not withstand such teasing.
He can’t stand it just because I came a little closer to him?
So how would he react if I tried something even worse?

They bought some digestive pills at the pharmacy, and Su Jiu took one. Her stomach quickly stopped hurting.
When she came out of the pharmacy, Rong Si looked at her worriedly. “Does it still hurt?”
Su Jiu smiled at him. “It doesn’t hurt anymore!”
Rong Si reached out and ruffled her hair. “If you’re still uncomfortable, make sure you tell me, okay?”
“Okay!” Su Jiu sensed his concern, and her heart felt as sweet as honey. She took the initiative to hold his hand and walked forward with him.
As night fell, many people came shopping at the night market. Su Jiu glanced left and right, and a pet shop attracted her gaze.
This pet shop was not big. It sold dogs of many breeds here.
Seeing Su Jiu stop at the door, a puppy put its paws on the cage and howled. Its round eyes looked at her as if it was greeting her.
It’s so cute!
Rong Si saw her reach out and play with the puppies with a smile. His heart skipped a beat, and he ruffled her hair again. “If you really like it, why don’t you buy one?”
