Chapter 53 Chapter 53 "Sorry, I should take the initiative this time." ...

About ten minutes later, the doctor walked into the ward with a list of test results and a packet of medicine in his hand.

"The intraocular pressure is a little high, but there are no other lesions. Don't worry too much." The doctor said softly.

The stone in her heart finally fell to the ground, and Lin Mo asked anxiously: "What caused it? Will it recur in the future?"

"Besides the disease, there are many reasons for high intraocular pressure. In your case, overwork, mental stress, and alcohol are all possible factors. Recently, you should get enough rest, spend less time on the computer and phone, and avoid sunlight when going out. Wear sunglasses or light-blocking goggles if possible."

The doctor handed the paper bag to Lu Yanxiao and said, "Mr. Xiao, this contains the medicine prescribed for Miss Lin. It also has detailed instructions. If there is no relief after a week, you will need to bring her back to the hospital for a follow-up visit."

Lu Yanxiao took the bag: "Thank you."

"Thank you, doctor."

There's nothing more satisfying than a false alarm. Lin Mo assured the doctor, "I'll definitely do it."

The two of them escorted the doctor out of the room, and Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief.

"Are you relieved?" Lu Yanxiao asked.

"Yeah, I'm relieved." Lin Mo smiled.

"Do you dare to work excessive overtime again?"

"Can……"

Lin Mo's lips parted slightly, but she was speechless, feeling guilty. The doctor said it might be due to overwork and excessive mental stress. At this moment, she was filled with a sense of relief at having survived a disaster, but she dared not do it again. However, it was unrealistic to say that she would never work overtime. So, she murmured softly, "I won't dare to overdo it anymore."

Well, getting such an answer can be considered a lesson for her.

Lu Yanxiao: "I've been taking you to and from get off work lately."

"No." Lin Mo was firm.

"Can you drive like this?"

"I can take a taxi."

"If you have another attack, who are you going to ask to take you to the hospital?"

Lin Mo was speechless, but still refused to compromise. The two of them remained deadlocked on this issue for over a minute, neither conceding, until the ward door was pushed open again from the outside, revealing a male doctor in a white coat. Lin Mo looked at him in confusion, unable to see clearly, but feeling a sense of déjà vu.

"Zheng Shize, this was the attending physician when you were hospitalized for gastritis last time." Zheng Shize smiled gently.

"Oh, hello, Dr. Zheng." Lin Mo waved at him. The other party was Lu Yanxiao's friend, and he must have come to say hello to him.

"I chatted with my colleague, Dr. Tian, ​​before coming in. I heard you just had mydriasis done." Zheng Shize asked her. At the same time, he handed Lu Yanxiao a small black box and car keys. The two of them just exchanged glances, and Zheng Shize continued to ask her, "How do you feel? Are you feeling better?"

"Well, it's much better, but I can't see clearly for the time being." Lin Mo smiled.

"That's good. Oh, by the way, Doctor Tian forgot to tell you earlier. Knowing I was coming, he asked me to give you a few more reminders. If you can avoid driving in the near future, try not to drive. It's best to have someone accompany you when you go out to prevent any emergencies on the road."

"Okay, I'll remember it." Lin Mo nodded seriously.

"That's it, I have to go back to work. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions." Zheng Shize said, glancing at Lu Yanxiao. "He has my phone number."

"Well, thank you, Dr. Zheng." Lin Mo waved.

Zheng Shize also waved his hand, and when she wasn't paying attention, Zheng Shize and Lu Yanxiao exchanged glances tacitly.

After Zheng Shize left, Lu Yanxiao looked at her intently: "Did you hear what the doctor said?"

"I heard you. How about you pick me up and drop me off at the alley at the back gate of the park? You went there last time when you went back to the old house. You won't run into any colleagues there. Also, don't drive one of those luxury cars of yours. Drive something more ordinary."

It was already a rare achievement to convince her, so he could deal with the rest later. Lu Yanxiao agreed, "Okay, we'll just drive to the entrance of the alley in a regular car."

Lin Mo: "Then let's go home now. I don't want to stay in the hospital."

"Wait." Lu Yanxiao grabbed her wrist.

Lin Mo turned around and saw the other party open the small box in his hand and take out a pair of sunglasses from it. They were black, with square frames, larger than her sunglasses, and looked like men's.

"Shi Ze helped me get these from my car. They're a little big, so I'll just have to wear them for now." As he spoke, Lu Yanxiao carefully put the sunglasses on her. "How do you like them?"

Lin Mo shook her head gently: "It's okay as long as it doesn't fall off. Thank you, Lu Yanxiao."

"Thank you, I'll just listen to me." Lu Yanxiao stretched out his hand towards her, "Go home."

Lin Mo put her hand on it: "Well, let's go home."

When she got home, she found a plate of seafood fried rice lying untouched on the coffee table in the living room, and the accompanying side dishes were also neatly arranged, not looking like anyone had used their chopsticks. Only then did Lin Mo realize that Lu Yanxiao had not even had dinner in order to come find her, and it was already past nine o'clock.

"I'm sorry. I made you miss your meal." Lin Mo let go of his hand. "You eat first. I can go up by myself."

Lu Yanxiao shook her back: "Do you feel sorry for me?"

"It's self-blame."

"Don't blame yourself. I told you I'm happy to do it." Lu Yanxiao's voice was a little firm. "Let's go, I'll take you upstairs first. Once you've washed up and are sleeping peacefully in bed, I'll come down to eat."

Lin Mo couldn't persuade him, so she had to obey.

The doctor said that it is best not to get the eyes wet after dilation, and to avoid toiletries coming into contact with the eyes. Therefore, she did not plan to take a shower, but only brush her teeth and wash her face.

The last time she got drunk, Lu Yanxiao took care of her while she was unconscious. Memories don't always have a personal touch, but this time, although she couldn't see clearly, the feeling was the most vivid. Lu Yanxiao stayed by her side the entire time. Without waiting for her to speak, he already had a toothbrush with toothpaste in it in front of her. When she closed her eyes and needed a face towel to wipe her cheek, he soaked it in advance and handed it to her.

He looked skilled and considerate, as if he did this kind of thing often.

"Lu Yanxiao, I find that you are quite homely." Lin Mo teased.

Lu Yanxiao: "That's good to know. Will you be happy if you marry me?"

“…”

Lin Mo frowned in a daze. Was this guy always this arrogant and narcissistic? Why did he remember that he used to be the kind of person who was frugal with words and a little aloof?

"What are you staring at?" Lu Yanxiao stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.

Lin Mo chuckled: "I'm not stunned, I'm looking at you."

"Can you see clearly?"

"I can't see clearly, but I can feel it." Because I couldn't see clearly, I dared to look up at him unscrupulously. "I feel that he is more handsome than before."

Lu Yanxiao's expression froze.

"What's wrong?" Lin Mo's eyes curved into a sweet smile, "Are you shy because of my praise?"

Lu Yanxiao chuckled, then bent down slightly, deliberately moving closer to her. He lifted her chin with his index finger so that she was looking at him at eye level. His voice was deep and rich, with a certain allure: "Now, can you see more clearly?"

The man's breath brushed against the tip of her nose, and Lin Mo felt the temperature on her face suddenly rise. Her eyes first saw the two plump lips, and then she could no longer move her gaze away, staring at them without blinking.

I want to kiss you, I want to kiss you hard.

The soft touch in the hospital ward just now is still fresh in her memory. She really likes it, and he doesn't seem to object to it.

Lin Mo bit her lip, silently clenched her fists behind her back as if she had made up her mind, and then ran straight towards the two red petals.

but!

The man dodged.

He actually dodged it!

"Go to bed early." Lu Yanxiao leaned over and pulled her wrist. "Follow the doctor's orders and get more rest."

"!" Lin Mo snorted unwillingly in her heart.

To ease the embarrassment, she maintained her previous posture, deliberately stretched her body forward, pretending that she was just trying to pick up something, and reached out to randomly pick up the nearest "object" on the sink.

However, the moment her hand touched the object, she was shocked.

That white thing was not an object at all. It was actually Lu Yanxiao's hand resting on the sink, and he was wearing a big watch. She was blind and confused, and thought it was the bottle cap of an overturned bottle.

"What are you doing?" Lu Yanxiao laughed.

"Sorry, I, I'm looking for my phone." She quickly withdrew her hand.

Lu Yanxiao tapped the pocket of her shirt: "It's in your own pocket."

"Oh, I remembered it wrongly." She pretended to yawn, "I'm so sleepy, I want to go to bed."

"I'll take you there."

Lu Yanxiao sent her to the bed, and when he left, he turned his back and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his lips. He seemed to know a vital point of the girl now, which needed to be verified.

The next weekend, the weather was not very good and it was likely to rain at any time.

Lin Mo slept until noon and woke naturally, feeling refreshed and relaxed because she could finally see clearly! Her vision, originally 5.1, had become even sharper and more precise after a day of blurring. She could even make out the corners of the dark clouds in the distant sky.

There was no need to wear sunglasses on cloudy days. She put Lu Yanxiao's sunglasses away in a box and planned to return them to him downstairs.

After taking a shower, Lin Mo went downstairs.

The room was silent, Lu Yanxiao nowhere to be seen. However, in the kitchen, five steamed buns, two side dishes, and a carton of milk were warming in a thermos. On the counter, a plate of washed blueberries and strawberries sat. One of the meat dishes was pan-fried hairtail fish. Neither the steamed buns nor the food itself could be prepared quickly, yet they felt strangely familiar.

Could it be that Lu Yanxiao got up early in the morning to do it?

Lin Mo was confused. When she turned around, she saw a sticky note on the refrigerator door: "We're in the audio-visual room. We'll keep your breakfast and lunch warm in the pot. You don't have to wash the dishes after eating. - Lu Yanxiao"

Lin Mo felt warm in her heart and tore off the sticky note and put it in her pocket like a treasure.

wrong.

Lin Mo was stunned.

us?

Is there anyone else home?!

She first took out the milk, inserted a straw into it, and walked towards the audio-visual room on the second floor while drinking.

"Sister, are you up?" At the stairs, she almost bumped into Lin Peng who had just jumped down.

Lin Mo was surprised: "Lin Peng, why are you here? When did you come?"

"Around eleven o'clock, Dad was worried, so he asked me to come visit you to see if you're feeling better. My mom made some fried hairtail fish and buns and asked me to bring them over to you. Hey, I have your favorite eggplant filling, which is slightly spicy. My brother-in-law has warmed it up in the pot for you. Have you eaten yet?"

"Not yet. Please thank Aunt Dai for me." Lin Mo took a cup from Lin Peng's hand and said, "Will you take some water?"

"Well, I drink one cup, and my brother-in-law drinks one cup."

"What are you doing in there?" Lin Mo helped him get some water and glanced towards the audio-visual room.

"Play games." Lin Peng excitedly said, "Sister, your home theater screen is so big, and my brother-in-law's equipment is all top-of-the-line. Playing games is so fun. We're having a great time."

Lin Peng anxiously snatched the cup from Lin Mo's hand: "I'll take it up myself. My brother-in-law said that you can't look at the screen, so don't go in. Go eat quickly and have fun after dinner."

“…”

Being chased away by her own brother, Lin Mo was somewhat speechless. Looking at Lin Peng's back as he ran upstairs, she murmured in dissatisfaction, "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, you're so comfortable calling me that."

Lin Mo returned to the restaurant, finished her meal and washed the dishes. It was still early.

She wanted to join in the fun in the audio-visual room, but her eyesight was fine, and she was still a little scared, so she gave up. She didn't dare to use her phone, computer, or books for the time being. After sitting on the terrace for a while, bored out of her mind, Lin Mo's eyes lit up. Since there was no sun, she might as well go for a walk around the community. She hadn't been out and about since she moved in.

Fenglinyuan has a total of nine buildings, but the entire community is very large.

Lin Mo walked and stopped with a long umbrella.

She stayed at the rockery in the garden for a long time, watching the children fishing, playing with water guns and blowing bubbles in the lake; she also visited the gym, which was fully equipped with equipment and had professional fitness trainers; after that, she went to the club for a cup of coffee. There was a library with bookshelves more than 20 meters high. She didn't read any books, but stayed in it for a long time.

When we came out of the club, it started to drizzle.

She went directly to the underground garage and came to the community's physical therapy center. She experienced the physical therapy center's unique traditional Chinese medicine moxibustion treatment, and then slept in the massage chair until dusk.

When she woke up, she was covered with a man's coat. She looked around and found Lu Yanxiao sitting in the massage chair next to her. He was not checking his phone, but reading a book. It seemed to be the same book he had read before in the old house, and the spine of the book was dark blue.

It was raining heavily outside, but the room was warm and cozy, with only soothing music and the sound of a man turning pages.

Lin Mo turned her head and watched quietly, enjoying the comfort of the moment immensely, feeling as if she had received unprecedented redemption in her heart.

"Ms. Lin, are you awake?" After a moment, the staff's voice broke the silence.

Lu Yanxiao put down the book and looked towards her.

The staff brought two cups of chrysanthemum tea and placed them on the table next to them. They smiled and said, "Seeing that you were sleeping soundly, we didn't dare to wake you up. How was your experience?"

"It's very good and very relaxing." Lin Mo picked up the cup and took a sip. The fragrance of chrysanthemum spread between her lips and teeth.

"That's good." The staff member took the folder from his colleague and handed it to Lu Yanxiao. Lu Yanxiao didn't even look at it and signed his name at the end.

Lin Mo was confused. Aren’t all physiotherapy centers free for member owners?

She leaned over to take a look, but Lu Yanxiao quickly closed the folder: "Watch your eyes."

Lin Mo uttered an "oh," realizing that it wasn't the right day for her to read the words on the page. But she was genuinely curious: "What did you just sign? It seems like physical therapy here is free."

"Mr. Lu, we've booked a massage chair for you. It will be delivered to your door within a week," the staff member explained enthusiastically. "It's the one you two are sitting on now."

Lin Mo looked at Lu Yanxiao in surprise.

"I think it's good, too." Lu Yanxiao stood up and stretched his neck and shoulders. "I can use it at home in the future."

"Can I take advantage of you?" Lin Moying asked in a low voice with a smile.

Lu Yanxiao rolled his eyes at her: "What do you think?"

"That's what it means to be okay."

The staff handed them an umbrella. Lu Yanxiao was about to take it when Lin Mo got there first and said politely, "I'll take it."

The two went down from the physical therapy center to the underground garage and returned home directly from the garage.

When she opened the door, Lin Mo was stunned. Lin Peng hadn't left yet and had ordered a bunch of takeout and drinks. He was disheveled and holding a straw in his mouth, waving at them: "Sister, brother-in-law, you're back at the right time. The food just arrived."

"you--"

Lin Mo wanted to say, "Why are you still here?", but the implication of chasing her away was too obvious, so she paused and changed the subject, "Have you been playing games all day?"

"No, I did two hours of homework in the middle."

Lin Mo naturally didn't believe it, but since the child had put so much effort into ordering their meal, it would be a bit unreasonable to blame him. So, she said nothing more and sat down to eat. She had to admit that her brother, while a bit playful, was a very good person. He not only ordered some fast food like hamburgers and fries, but also, considering that she didn't like those, he also ordered home-cooked dishes from another restaurant.

Lu Yanxiao gave him the highest evaluation with two words: "Smart."

Lin Peng was so proud that he pushed the issue further, "Brother-in-law, I can't get past that level. Please help me after dinner."

"OK." Lu Yanxiao agreed straightforwardly.

"No..." Lin Mo couldn't stand it any longer. "Lin Peng, aren't you going home after dinner? It's already dark."

"I'm not going back tonight." Lin Peng said confidently, "My brother-in-law agreed."

“…”

Lin Mo looked at Lu Yanxiao in disbelief. If Lin Peng stayed overnight, they wouldn't be able to sleep in separate rooms tonight. Why had he agreed? The latter shrugged, looking somewhat helpless.

"Tomorrow is Monday, you have to go to school." Lin Mo emphasized to Lin Peng.

"I know. I told my parents I'm here to visit and bring food, and I'll have my brother-in-law tutor me. I'll go directly from your house to school tomorrow. I've brought my schoolbag with me, and it's in the guest bedroom upstairs." Lin Peng said this before he suddenly realized that his sister didn't seem to want him to stay overnight, so he shouted, "No, sister, it's raining so hard outside, are you going to kick me out?"

"I, I didn't mean that." She looked at Lu Yanxiao for help.

He looked out the window as if he didn't understand. "It's raining pretty hard, I guess it'll be hard to get a taxi." Then, he turned his gaze towards her and said, "How about I take him home?"

"Forget it, just stay here." Lin Mo had no choice but to compromise.

It was unreasonable to ask someone else to send her brother off when it was raining so hard. Besides, Lin Peng had already told her father and Aunt Dai. If she asked her father to pick him up now, it would be unsafe on the one hand, and Aunt Dai might think too much on the other.

"Next time you want to stay overnight, tell me in advance."

"I say..." Before Lin Peng could finish his words, Lu Yanxiao picked up a chicken leg and blocked his mouth.

Lu Yanxiao: "Eat quickly, and you'll pass the level after you finish eating."

"Okay." Lin Peng took big bites of the chicken leg, his face beaming with joy.

After playing in the audio-visual room until after nine o'clock in the evening, Lin Peng came out reluctantly at Lin Mo's order. After washing up, he reluctantly carried his schoolbag into the study downstairs and asked Lu Yanxiao to help him with his homework.

Only then did Lin Mo return to her bedroom with peace of mind.

Tomorrow is Monday, and she has no plans to take a day off. Therefore, she tries her best to protect her eyes every minute before going to work. She cannot look at her mobile phone, computer, or paper. She has no choice but to go to bed early.

Lu Yanxiao's bedroom and Lu Yanxiao's bed were filled with his scent.

She got up late in the morning and took a nap in the physical therapy center in the afternoon. She was full of energy lying in bed. More than half an hour passed, but she still didn't feel sleepy at all, and her back was a little stiff from lying there.

Or you could read some books.

After a moment of internal struggle, Lin Mo sat up and looked around. She immediately saw a book on the round table on the balcony. It seemed to be the book that Lu Yanxiao was reading in the physical therapy center today.

I seem to have seen him looking at it more than once, and he even placed it in his bedroom.

Lin Mo couldn't help but be curious about what kind of book it was.

She ran over quickly in her slippers, turned on the balcony light, sat down on the sofa with her legs curled up, picked up the book, and after just a glance at the cover, Lin Mo opened her eyes wide in surprise.

I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence.

The title of the book is printed on the dark green cover: "Everything I Never Told You"

The translated Chinese version is "A Silent Confession", a book she has read many times and often uses to remind herself.

It’s just that she was reading the Chinese translation version, and Lu Yanxiao was reading the English version. The two versions had different packaging, so she didn’t recognize them.

Like her, Lu Yanxiao also copied the theme sentence in the blank space of the title page: "Our whole life is to break free from the expectations of others and find our true selves."

Looking at the calm and majestic handwriting on the paper, Lin Mo unconsciously stroked it lightly with her fingertips.

She had never read the English version before, so after flipping through a page or two, she became so absorbed in it that she simply turned off the balcony light, took the book into her room, and sat on the bed to read. She was so engrossed in her reading that she didn't even notice someone coming in.

"It hurts your eyes." Lu Yanxiao took the book from her hand.

Lin Mo realized belatedly that she had been looking for half an hour. She felt so guilty and regretted it so much that she pinched her eyebrows and scratched her eye sockets as if to make up for her loss. She almost did a set of eye exercises on the spot.

Lu Yanxiao laughed: "Do you regret it now? How about taking two days off?"

"No, I'm planning to move my work outside to the next two weeks and try to avoid screen time." She was very firm on this point. After expressing her attitude, she changed the subject and pointed to the book on the bedside table. "What a coincidence! I have this book too, but it's the Chinese version. It's at Changli's house."

"I know. I saw it last time." Lu Yanxiao opened the top drawer of the cabinet and took out another book and placed it on the cabinet. "There's also a Chinese version."

Lin Mo was surprised: "Why did you buy so much? Do you like it too?"

"I haven't had it before." Lu Yanxiao glanced at her and said frankly, "I saw it at your house. I felt like you looked through it often. I was curious about what attracted you to it, so I bought it to take a look."

"..." Lin Mo was stunned.

So that's how it was. His honesty and frankness struck a chord in her heart, giving rise to an indescribable and subtle feeling, which was hard to explain, but it was as if she had shared the true secret deep in her heart with someone else for the first time.

"So, do you know now?" Lin Mo asked weakly.

Lu Yanxiao turned off the ceiling light in the room, turned on the bedside lamp, sat on the bed, and deliberately kept the question in suspense: "Guess?"

"I don't know." There was a glint of confusion in Lin Mo's eyes, as if she was looking forward to his answer.

Lu Yanxiao curled his lips and gently brushed the tip of her nose, his eyes deep and sincere: "You can do whatever you want, without any restrictions."

Bang--

It's like wood burning in a fireplace, warm and lively.

Lin Mo stood there silently, feeling as if she was wrapped in a thick and warm blanket. Her heart felt incredibly soft, and there was a faint heat in her eyes.

He really understands her.

The corners of her lips couldn't help but rise, but then she felt a little hypocritical. She turned her face away, slid down, and slipped into the quilt. Then, she revealed a pair of eyes, and looked at the man beside her with burning eyes: "Thank you, Lu Yanxiao."

"What are you thanking me for?" Lu Yanxiao turned off the desk lamp and lay down beside him.

"A lot." Lin Mo paused, finding it difficult to express how touched she was at the moment. She then randomly picked one of the many reasons to thank him, "Thank you for tutoring my brother just now. I'm sorry to bother you again today."

The dark room fell into a brief silence, and the man did not respond.

Lin Mo thought he was going to fall asleep, so she closed her eyes and waited for sleepiness to come. But about a minute later, the mattress next to her moved, and the man turned sideways towards her and seemed to be getting closer. She could smell a fragrance she had never smelled before.

What does it taste like?

She sniffed subconsciously, trying to smell it more clearly.

"Lin Mo, what did I say yesterday at the hospital?" The man's voice was lazy, as if it was a normal chat or discussion, not a question or an inquiry. "Don't ask me whether it's troublesome or not again."

Lin Mo said "oh".

What he said yesterday was, "I'm happy to be bothered by you," and "You kissed me three times, it's not fair, I have to get it back," and "I'll pay you back when your eyes are better"...

Lin Mo unconsciously inched closer to the man. The scent wasn't perfume, nor was it skincare. How could she describe it? It was perhaps like the fresh, green-husked scent of newly ripe corn. It was light, and the closer she got to him, the clearer it became.

It smelled good, and gave her an inexplicable sense of security.

"What's wrong? Is your nose uncomfortable? Or do you have a cold?" Her strange behavior was still noticed by the man. Lu Yanxiao stood up and turned on the desk lamp again, resting his arms on the pillow and looking down at her condescendingly.

"No." Lin Mo shook her head.

The lamp, a round globe beneath an open umbrella, glowed with a warm orange light, as if a full moon were truly nearby. The man, bathed in the orange glow, exuded a gentle, mysterious allure.

Accompanied by a light corn fragrance.

Lin Mo couldn't help but be stunned.

"Lu Yanxiao, I still owe you a kiss." She bit her lower lip.

Lu Yanxiao was stunned for a few seconds, then raised his eyebrows and smiled faintly: "I'll owe it to you for now."

After that, with a click, the desk lamp was turned off and the room fell into darkness again.

Under the cover of darkness, the girl's face was filled with disappointment. She pouted and exhaled heavily through her nose. Lu Yanxiao's lips curled up, and he could almost see the girl's angry expression.

His verification was successful.

She did have a physical attraction to him, which was great news for him.

Lu Yanxiao suppressed his smile and was about to make his next move when he felt the girl suddenly stand up, put her arm on the side of his face, looked down at him straight, and said stubbornly: "But I don't want to owe others, I'll pay you back now."

Lu Yanxiao was stunned, but he reacted very quickly. Just when the girl was about to get close to him without saying a word, he held her shoulders with one hand, supported the mattress with the other hand, turned over and switched their positions.

"Sorry, I should take the initiative this time."

Lin Mo had never known that two people could kiss for so long. It wasn't just a quick, fleeting kiss. At first, she responded to his aggressive intrusion, but soon she learned the ropes and became adept at it, taking the initiative. Perhaps it had been over half an hour, and the strong smell of corn had already permeated her entire mouth.

The tingling of the tip of the tongue can make her linger.

Until she inadvertently felt the reaction of the man's body, the burning heat and the unignorable presence, which made her tremble all over.

Lu Yanxiao stopped, stroked the hair by her ears, and placed a burning kiss on her forehead. Although he was reluctant to end it, he was afraid that he would scare her, so he stood up and wanted to retreat back to his side.

Unexpectedly, the girl did not let go, and the two soft arms on the back of his neck pulled down.

Lu Yanxiao was slightly stunned. He realized that she didn't want to end it either, so he leaned over and bit her earlobe lightly, following the strength of her arm.

Lin Mo shuddered and said intermittently, "Only, only kiss."

"Okay, just kiss--" The last word was swallowed between their lips and teeth.

A few minutes later, Lin Mo felt her consciousness begin to fade. She didn't know when she started to lose control. There was a slight and heavy movement under the quilt. She felt like she was floating on the waves, with waves of dampness rising and falling. The numbness spread from her spine to her limbs, every inch of her skin, and every cell.

She clutched the bed sheet, bit her lower lip tightly, and forced herself not to scream, but the unprecedented feeling made her lost.

The moment the tip of the tongue touched it, it was as if I was suddenly washed up to the clouds by the waves, and the city collapsed in a mess.

After a moment, Lu Yanxiao poked his head out from under the quilt, his lips stained with a crystal-like luster.

Lin Mo blushed immediately, pushed her hands against his chest, and scolded him, "Liar."

"Where did I lie to you?"

The man had long arms and fingers, and his fingertips could easily reach far away. The rough feeling of his fingertips only took a moment to make her tremble uncontrollably. "Besides kissing, what else did I do?"

Lin Mo was speechless. It seemed that he had just kissed her, but it was different from the kiss she understood.

"Carry you to take a bath."

"I'll go by myself." Lin Mo angrily shook off his restless hand.

"Still got the energy?"

She said angrily, "There are many."

"Looks like you haven't kissed enough yet."

As soon as she finished speaking, the kisses began to thicken again. She couldn't tell how many times they'd gone back and forth, but by the end, she was so exhausted she had no energy left, and she let Lu Yanxiao clean and wipe her. She vaguely remembered that he'd gone to take care of it himself, but she didn't know how long he'd been gone. In a hazy state, he'd returned, changed his clothes, and held her in his arms.
