After a long silence, Mu Yichuan raised his hawk-like eyes, glanced casually at his phone, and stood up, saying, "Go see the Great Master."
...
After the last class, it was already evening. A delighted Xin Yu didn't linger at school and returned to Yuanzi's little house.
Today was incredibly happy for her; double the joy! She was going to cook a big meal to celebrate with Yuanzi!
Setting down the groceries she had bought, Xin Yu first took out the broken pig's head and started gluing it back together with super glue. Although it was a bit crooked, she managed to restore it to its original pig's head shape.
"Someone like Mu Yichuan actually has a pig's head... ugh..." It was hilarious just thinking about it.
"Weren't you a gift from him when he was little? Who gave you to him?" Xin Yu leaned on the table and "chatted" with the pig's head for a while.
She got up and went to the kitchen. After everything was ready, she waited for Yuanzi to return.
*Ring ring ring* Xin Yu grabbed her phone quickly, not even paying attention to the number. "Yuanzi, hehe, aren't you off work yet? I made your favorite dish today!"
Silence on the other end. "Yuanzi?"
"My favorite thing is—you!"
"You…" Xin Yu was startled by the sudden voice. A sense of unease rose in her heart, and she hung up without thinking.
It was… Mu Yichuan?!
Xin Yu stared at the black screen of her phone. She… had actually hung up on him!
Should she just turn off her phone?
Her heart panicked instantly.
"Calm down, calm down!" Xin Yu kept trying to calm herself, taking deep breaths. Thinking about Mu Yichuan's strength, she figured she couldn't escape.
But he couldn't force her like this…
Knock knock knock. With the sound of knocking on the door, Xin Yu felt a jolt, and sweat quickly beaded on her forehead.
He… wouldn't come knocking? "If you want me to kick this door down, think for a few more seconds!"
Cold, such a cold voice! Such a cold tone!
It really was Mu Yichuan!
Xin Yu felt like she was hallucinating from hearing him count. Her mind went blank as she opened the door, only to see Mu Yichuan, dressed in black, standing there.
Like a mysterious emperor, he exuded a dark aura, both noble and sinister.
With a long stride, he strode into the room, his dark eyes fixed on Xin Yu, his lips tightly pressed together. Even without knowing him well, one could sense his anger.
Xin Yu was so frightened by his imposing presence that she kept backing away. Words stuck in her throat, unable to be uttered, her fearful eyes meeting his.
"You've grown quite capable overnight," he said calmly, his voice devoid of emotion.
Yet, it made Xin Yu's heart tremble.
"So afraid of me?" Mu Yichuan raised his right hand and tucked a stray strand of Xin Yu's hair behind her ear. "Yet you're never behaving yourself."
His touch felt like an electric shock, making her instinctively shrink back.
"You..." How did you find this place?
Before she could speak, Mu Yichuan's domineering kiss choked her. He gripped her waist, as if he wanted to devour her whole.
"Mmm..." Xin Yu struggled, but couldn't push him away, only spurring him to become even more ferocious.
For a long, long time...
"Don't like the appetizer? Prefer the main course?" Mu Yichuan's voice rose at the end, his brow furrowing slightly.
Xin Yu, who was panting heavily, stiffened, then trembled slightly, looking at Mu Yichuan with fear. What was he going to do?
Xin Yu looked around, wanting to escape, but Mu Yichuan beat her to it. He stretched out his long arm and pinned her down on the sofa.
"Mu Yichuan! You're a madman!" Xin Yu trembled uncontrollably. How could he be so casual?!
"You've driven me crazy." He felt the soft warmth against his tense body, a strange sense of satisfaction rising within him.
"Let me go! This is bullying! Even if you win, it's not honorable." Xin Yu blurted out, her words almost incoherent. All she wanted now was to escape this man. "Ah..."
His cold hand touched her smooth skin, and Xin Yu felt her heart pounding in her chest.
A clattering sound came from outside the door as someone fumbled for keys.
Yuanzi's back?!
