You said you hated men, why are your eyes now full of love?

The moonlight was cold and clear.

In the dim and hazy bedroom, the blushing, romantic atmosphere blended into the air and spread invisibly.

After hearing the girl's answer, despite the turmoil in his heart, Ji Mu tried his best to remain calm and composed.

"Mm... I understand."

"Huh? That sounds so half-hearted~"

The girl's light, dissatisfied voice came through.

Her hair cascaded like a waterfall, spilling all around her. Her narrow eyes stared unblinkingly, filled with a pitiful expression, as she continued to ask, "Or do you really not like this kind of repayment?"

Ji Mu was silent for a moment.

He decided not to answer, instead awkwardly changing the subject.

"Get some rest."

The girl pouted and hummed, her delicate feet fidgeting restlessly to express her displeasure.

Ji Mu frowned and grabbed her ankle.

"If you're injured, don't move. What if you accidentally hurt yourself again?"

"You don't like it anyway..." Ruan Qingqing muttered quietly.

Ji Mu pretended not to hear.

"I'll get you some water to wash your feet."

After walking barefoot on the ground for so long, her feet were surely dirty.

Putting the first aid kit back in its place, and considering that his target's personality was particularly strange and sensitive after a fever, he added a comforting remark before leaving the room.

"Be good. Listen."

His voice was soft, his tone extremely patient and gentle. She felt as if someone was playfully tugging at her heartstrings.

Ruan Qingqing felt her ears burning and her eyes not knowing where to look.

Before, she could not understand why people were so eager to follow a faceless dubbing artist or streamer.

Now... she was starting to understand.

Click!

With the sound of the door closing, the girl breathed easily, as if she was relieved to suppress the chaotic emotions in her heart.

She knew that Ji Mu's charm was immense.

But... she had underestimated the effect he had on her.

Come to think of it, even in her previous life, he was indifferent to everyone, yet most of the girls in the school adored him.

But now, this usually cold and lazy male god was showing an indulgent side exclusively to her.

Such a contrast and such an effect - who could resist?

Even she, who had always regarded the opposite sex as a nuisance, found her physiological needs rising to unprecedented levels because of him.

Suddenly, many memories from this life flooded her mind.

The young man standing at the sink.

His long, defined fingers worked under the tap. Clear water rolled down his pale skin, beading and dripping off his wrist.

That image alone stirred the deepest part of one's greed.

What would it feel like... to have those hands touching her all over?

It was a scorching midday, and after finishing his run, he couldn't stand the harsh sunlight and ran into the shade to cool off.

He lifted his short-sleeved school uniform and wiped the sweat from his jaw. Unwittingly, the defined musculature of his torso was revealed to those watching.

The viscous sweat trickled down his contours, eventually disappearing into the hem of his pants, exuding a full-bodied masculinity that left much to the imagination.

If only she had been a little closer then... Maybe she could have...

Dare to extend her tongue...

That lewd...

Wetness...

Licked every bead of sweat from him.

She couldn't hold back her impulses anymore.

"Ah... Mm..."

Her delicate lips parted slightly, the breath that escaped carrying a hint of hoarseness. The flames within her burned fiercely, her eyes shrouded in a misty haze.

It itched... 

She placed a single hand over the fullness of her chest, and with only slight force, her fingers sank into the soft flesh.

It wasn't just a simple itch on the surface of the skin.

It was a torment deep within, a surge of desire buried beneath the currents of restraint.

When the ice blocks halfway up the snowy mountain begin to show signs of melting, they are destined to overflow more and more due to the shifting stars. The long accumulation is bound to be released, and the fragile foundation of rationality will finally be overwhelmed by irresistible desire.

To this day, Ruan Qingqing finally understands the meaning of the expression "burning with desire".

She also understands why those scoundrels like Situ Yan looked at her with such hot, greedy eyes.

Because now she is longing for Ji Mu with the same dirty thoughts.

"Ruan Qingqing, I seem to have... underestimated you~"

In this life, she had been able to endure being around him for so long.

The strength of her will was obvious.

But she was no longer the introverted and self-deprecating weakling she once was.

Instead of hiding pathetically in a corner, fantasizing about him and comforting herself, she wanted to... become a predator who would take the initiative.

Creak—

Ji Mu, holding a basin of water, pushed open the door and happened to meet her gaze.

Her eyes were deep, the swirling colors in them indescribable, making him instinctively shiver.

Just as his sixth sense was about to sound the alarm, she called to him softly with a smile as radiant as a flower.

"You're here~"

The feeling of oppression instantly vanished, as if it had all been an illusion that had never happened.

Ji Mu wouldn't be stupid enough to dismiss what just happened as a hallucination.

The girl's behavior tonight was indeed strange and out of character, so he didn't treat it with his usual casual and relaxed attitude.

A hint of caution rose in his heart as he walked to the bedside and set down the basin of water without showing any emotion.

"I added some hot water, check the temperature."

"Okay~" 

She obediently lifted her foot and dipped it in the water.

"How is it?"

"Not too cold or too hot, very comfortable~"

"Mm."

Ji Mu sat on the edge of the bed and watched the girl comfortably wash her feet, advising, "It's very late. As soon as you're done washing, dry them and go back to bed to rest."

"No way."

Ruan Qingqing pouted, lifting her leg and placing her two pale feet onto his knees.

"You help me dry them~"

Ji Mu was silent for a moment.

After a few seconds, he took the towel placed beside him, lowered his eyes, and carefully wiped her feet, not refusing her reasonable request.

This indulgence made a mischievous smile appear on Ruan Qingqing's face. "Good boy~"

Hearing the teasing tone in her voice, Ji Mu didn't react.

However, she obviously didn't intend to let him off so easily.

The scent of gardenias in the air suddenly grew stronger, and without warning, the girl bent down and quickly pecked him on the lips.

The speed was so fast that he didn't even have time to dodge.

By the time Ji Mu's brain registered what had happened, she had already succeeded.

"?!"

After being ambushed three times in a row, his calm facade almost cracked.

"You—"

"Don't get upset~"

Ruan Qingqing smiled playfully at him as if nothing had happened.

"This is your reward for being obedient."

Hearing her shameless words, Ji Mu took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling, and finally decided to remain silent.

Seeing how tolerant he was, Ruan Qingqing continued to push her limits, "Why are you so nice to me?"

"Because..."

His gaze shifted and fixed on her pure and delicate face, and Ji Mu said every word clearly, "You're silly goose."

Ruan Qingqing blinked.

That heart-pounding sensation hit her again, like an electric current running through her nerves, causing a tingling sensation.

"Ji Mu… stop being so good to me."

She held his wrist and rubbed her cheek against his palm, like a little fox being affectionate with its owner.

His beautiful face was reflected in her bright black eyes.

"Otherwise, I might really want to give myself to you."

The softness of her fingers didn't make Ji Mu pull his hand away immediately; instead, he unusually maintained intimate contact.

"Haven't you always called me A-Mu before?"

He asked gently, "Why are you calling me by my name today?"

"I just felt like it~"

The girl, still unaware, continued to lie without changing her expression.

"It doesn't matter if it's A-Mu or Ji Mu..."

"So how long are you going to keep pretending?"

The sudden interruption left Ruan Qingqing confused. "Hmm?"

In front of her, Ji Mu's expression remained unchanged as he stroked her cheek with his thumb.

"Silly goose would never call me A-Mu."

Ruan Qingqing's expression instantly froze.

In her ear, his tone visibly dropped several degrees.

"I don't care who you are..."

Halfway through his sentence, the boy's gaze turned icy, his amber eyes covered with a cold frost.

"Leave Ruan Qingqing's body."
