Those words pleased Rong Si. His gaze softened. “Yes, your eyes are for only me.”
Giggling, Su Jiu got up and threw herself into his arms, hugging him. “I’m going to take a shower, Big Brother. Do you want to… sleep together tonight?”
“Do you?”
“No,” she teased him.
“But I want to. What should I do?”
“What if I don’t let you?”
Seeing the sly smile in her eyes, Rong Si faintly smiled. “I can only shamelessly climb into your bed myself.”
Su Jiu was amused at those words. The little villain is indeed getting better at flirting. He’s no longer as cold and aloof as before. Of course, most of the time, Rong Si showed this side of himself only in front of her.
Su Jiu was happy.
This meant that she was special to the little villain.
“Big Brother, keep the bed warm and wait for me!” Saying that, Su Jiu stood on tiptoe and kissed him on the cheek. Then, she turned into the bathroom with a change of pajamas.
After she went into the bathroom, Rong Si squatted and stared at the kitten on the ground. It was pawing at the gift box.
The kitten seemed to sense Rong Si’s strong oppressive presence and immediately scuttled behind the gift box, peering at him cautiously.
Rong Si narrowed his eyes. “Don’t take advantage of her again. Otherwise…”
He would find a way to make it impossible for the kitten to stay with Little Jiu.
“Meow!” The little kitten weakly meowed and hid, not daring to come out. It did not cling to him, as it clung to Su Jiu.
After drying his hair, Rong Si lay down on Su Jiu’s bed and leaned against the headboard. This pink princess bed was not his style, the style of a tall young man, but he did not want to leave.
Because it had a sweet scent unique to a girl, and Little Jiu’s scent fascinated him.
After a while, Su Jiu came out of the bathroom. She was wearing white cotton pajamas, and her loose top and pajama pants made her look petite. When she saw Rong Si already in bed, she immediately ran over and climbed into the bed in one go.
She joined him at the head of the bed and rested her head on his shoulder. Wrapping one arm around his lean waist, she breathed in his scent and murmured, “Big Brother, I’ve missed you so much.”
“I missed you too.”
“How much did you miss me?”
“Very, very much. You’re always on my mind. I can’t even concentrate on my studies and work anymore.”
Hearing this, Su Jiu felt a hint of sweetness in her heart. She deliberately put on a straight face and said, “Are you blaming me? Then just don’t think about me. If you have to think about someone else, that’s fine!”
Rong Si laughed. “Okay, I’ll think of whoever you want me to.”
“You—” Speechless, Su Jiu punched him. “Don’t you dare think about anyone else!”
Rong Si caught her hand, held her fingers, and kissed them one by one. Su Jiu was embarrassed by his kisses. She felt an itch on her fingertips, like a subtle electric current that ran all the way to her heart.
The tension in the air became thick again.
Just when she thought he was going to do something else, Rong Si suddenly let go of her hand and said calmly, “It’s late. Go to sleep.”
Su Jiu puffed up her cheeks and felt a little disappointed.
If she were being honest, she enjoyed the intimacy with the little villain… but now, it was limited to only holding hands and kissing and hugging. She couldn’t go any further. It was a little torturous for both of them.
No, what am I imagining?
Embarrassed, Su Jiu took a deep breath to calm her erratic heartbeat. “Okay, good night. Dream of me.”
“Okay, you have to dream about me too.”
“I’ll try!” Su Jiu smiled and lay under the blanket with him.
She was sleeping in his arms. Naturally, Rong Si reached out and hugged her. They were so close that Su Jiu was aware of his irregular breathing and could hear his rapid heartbeat.
Knowing that he was as nervous as she was, Su Jiu could not help but snicker. She waited for the little villain to do something else, but he did not move.
In the process of waiting, she fell asleep.
Only Rong Si knew how much he had endured.
She was in his arms, but he could do nothing. He could only suffer. With no other choice, he lowered his head and kissed her gently on the lips. Then, he got up and took a pillow to sleep on the sofa.
***
Without realizing it, Su Jiu slept until eight in the morning. When she thought about it, she was still a little confused. Instinctively, she reached out to touch the spot beside her, wanting to hug the little villain. However, his side of the bed was empty.
Eh?
Where is he?
Su Jiu immediately opened her eyes and saw Rong Si lying alone on the sofa by the wall. His eyes were closed, as if he was still asleep.
Is he sleeping so soundly?
It seemed that he had indeed been exhausted after coming back the previous day.
Su Jiu got out of bed quietly and walked over to lie on the arm of the sofa. She looked down at Rong Si’s sleeping face.
In the morning light, Rong Si’s face didn’t seem to have any flaws. There weren’t even any visible pores. She could only see the fine hairs on his face. His skin was so good that even a girl like her was jealous!
And from her point of view, his eyelashes were long and his nose was sharp. His thin lips made her want to taste them.
And as she thought that, she did. Little by little, she lowered her head and purred against his lips.
At that moment, someone grabbed her wrist and pulled her forward. She fell against him, startled. When she tried to get up, he caught her by the waist.
Rong Si opened his eyes. The smile was so obvious in his deep eyes.
Su Jiu suddenly understood that he was pretending to be asleep!
Ahhhhh! I was staring at him for quite a while. I even stole a kiss. He knows all that.
Good grief!
Rong Si reached out and pinched her little cheek. “Kiss me openly if you want. There’s no need to be sneaky.”
“W-Who’s sneaking around?” Su Jiu argued with a red face.
Rong Si raised his eyebrows. “You refuse to admit what you just did?”
“I won’t admit it!” Su Jiu said confidently.
Suddenly, they heard a knock on the door. Realizing that it might be her parents, Su Jiu jumped and quickly covered her mouth.
She had spoken a little too loudly just now. Have they heard me?
Su Jiu hurriedly gestured for Rong Si to keep quiet and whispered to him, “Big Brother, why don’t you find a place to hide first?”
Frustrated, Rong Si nodded.
At the same time, Su Shengjing’s voice came from outside. “Baby, are you awake?”
Su Jiu’s heart skipped a beat. It was her father. All the more reason not to let him know that the little villain is in my room now!
Seeing the little villain enter the bathroom, Su Jiu tidied her hair and clothes before walking over to open the door. “Daddy?”
