Many scattered fragments gathered in her mind, and Xu Nuo patted her head, her face turning slightly red, which was rare for her.

Among the scenes I remember, it should be Nan Qing'an, but I don't know if Nan Qing'an was there when I was doing *that*.

Well, whether I was there or not, it's already happened! It's just...so embarrassing...

Xu Nuo picked up the clothes scattered on the bed and floor and went into the bathroom.

As she was being showered, the bathroom door suddenly opened, and Nan Qing'an stood in the doorway holding a stack of clothes.

Xu Nuo, with her back to the door, turned around and saw Nan Qing'an. She was stunned and was about to pull a bath towel from the shelf when Nan Qing'an's voice rang out:

"I'll put your clothes here for you, you can change into them later."

The voice sounded flat and emotionless, lacking its usual warmth.

After saying that, Nan Qing'an turned and left the bathroom, closing the door behind him.

Xu Nuo looked at the neatly folded new clothes, and several scenes from last night flashed through her mind...

Nan Qing'an wasn't wearing his glasses today!

Xu Nuo thought of the frameless glasses that were lying crooked on the floor, and suddenly remembered the image of Nan Qing'an clutching his own clothes tightly.

The day before yesterday, he slept in the same bed with me, and I was down to just my underwear; he hadn't even changed out of his pajamas...

As the shower water cascaded over her body, Xu Nuo suddenly understood:

There must be something Nan Qing'an doesn't want others to see. The reason for the incident the night before last was barely understandable, but given how badly the two of them fought last night, Xu Nuo was certain that Nan Qing'an wanted to continue the relationship last night.

But he wouldn't let her take off his clothes...

What could it be?

While pondering this question, Xu Nuo washed up, changed into the new clothes Nan Qing'an had brought, and only when she was tidying herself up in front of the mirror did she notice two marks on her neck. She rubbed them with her hands, only to find it was futile!

The clothes Nan Qing'an brought included a t-shirt underneath and a similar style of sportswear as before. Xu Nuo zipped the zipper up all the way to barely cover the two marks. She looked in the mirror before coming out of the bathroom.

Nan Qing'an was still sitting at the table by the window, on which sat a delicate little silver box.

Hearing the voice, he looked up and saw Xu Nuo's raised collar, and his expression turned gloomy.

Ignoring Nan Qing'an's expression, Xu Nuo sat down in the chair opposite him. Perhaps it was a side effect of the medication, but Xu Nuo felt very weak.

Looking at the small box on the table, I had a guess what was inside!

When do I leave?

Xu Nuo just wanted to leave this place as soon as possible; he didn't want to go through what happened last night again.

"You want to leave that much?"

Nan Qing'an opened the small box, and sure enough, there were several syringes inside.

Xu Nuo glanced at it and saw that there were two rows, five in each row, for a total of ten!

"I just want to get things sorted out for you as quickly as possible so you can go back to Yuncheng!"

Upon seeing the two rows of syringes, Xu Nuo felt a sudden, uncontrollable tension in her body.

"After today's injection, you'll be all set! You can choose to leave this afternoon or tonight!"

Nan Qing'an looked at Xu Nuo: "Of course, I would be very happy if you were willing to set off again tomorrow!"

"I'll leave this afternoon. The sooner I get things done for you, the happier you'll be!"

Xu Nuo saw a glass of milk on the table, picked it up, and drank it all in one gulp!

He no longer cared whether Nan Qing'an would drug him; if he really intended to, there was no way he could prevent it! He might as well eat his fill first!

"Three doses should be used, but since you're in such a hurry, the remaining injection can be used on the way."

As Nan Qing'an spoke, he took one out of the small box and held it in his hand, looking at the liquid sloshing inside.

Knowing he couldn't avoid it, he reached for the syringe in Nan Qing'an's hand:

"I'll do it myself!"

Dodging Xu Nuo's outstretched hand, Nan Qing'an stood up, walked to Xu Nuo's side, wiped a drop of milk from the corner of his mouth, and said calmly:

"I'll help you."

As he watched the liquid in the syringe slowly being pushed into his body, Xu Nuo's hand trembled uncontrollably. The dizzying, rollercoaster-like sensation he had experienced last night filled him with fear from the bottom of his heart.

Seemingly sensing Xu Nuo's thoughts, Nan Qing'an rubbed Xu Nuo's puncture wound and whispered:

"The first reaction will definitely be stronger, but it won't be as uncomfortable this time. You'll experience endless pleasure!"

Upon hearing the word "pleasure," Xu Nuo suddenly smiled and looked at Nan Qing'an:

"I remember last night, Brother Ruo'an kept flirting with me. You've already flirted with me, so why did you run away halfway through? Now I have to deal with it myself!"

Xu Nuo withdrew her arm, lowered her sleeve, and looked at Nan Qing'an with a smile in her eyes:

"I can't let you escape this time! I'll pin you down on the bed and strip you naked first!"

Nan Qing'an frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "We'll discuss this when you're sober. I don't want to hear you calling someone else's name in my bed!"

After Nan Qing'an finished speaking, he walked out of the room, and the sound of the door closing behind him made Xu Nuo breathe a sigh of relief.

He was right. There must be something Nan Qing'an didn't want anyone to see. Xu Nuo was deeply afraid of the drug's effects, and Nan Qing'an's presence would only amplify his fear.

With a few words, Xu Nuo chased Nan Qing'an away. Before the medicine took effect, she got up and went to the bedside.

The mouthpiece on the bed had obviously been changed. Xu Nuo didn't know what the effects of the drug would be like this time. She wanted to lie back down and wait for the effects to wear off, but she was afraid that she might do something else!

Yesterday, if Nan Qing'an hadn't come in, Xu Nuo doesn't know if she would have run away.

Xu Nuo stood by the bed for a while, then turned and went into the bathroom. She locked the bathroom door from the inside, leaned against the wall, and slowly sat down on the floor.

A strange sense of pleasure kept coursing through her body, and her head was getting increasingly dizzy. Xu Nuo knew that the drug was taking effect!

With her brain still functioning, Xu Nuo thought about the syringes in the box and Nan Qing'an's words, deducing that it would take several days to become addictive!

He's leaving today. How many people will Nan Qing'an arrange for him? Will Lao Gui come along? He'll definitely arrange for someone to inject him again on the way. Is there any chance I can avoid it?

No! There were ten in that box; he didn't just intend to inject himself three times!

Gradually, Xu Nuo felt her mind becoming muddled, and she could no longer analyze things rationally...
