I transmigrated into a book, becoming a money-grubbing relative in the female lead's family.
My money-grubbing mother, through moral manipulation, made me join the male lead's company...
Cheng Qicai was playing on her phone when she caught a strong but refreshing scent of ocean citrus.
She knew Gu Rongqi had finished showering and come out when she smelled that scent, so she shifted her gaze from her phone to Gu Rongqi.
She saw him drying his wet hair with a white towel and then sitting down next to her.
Cheng Qicai went up and hugged him tightly, resting her chin on his shoulder and sniffing, "Gu Rongqi, you smell so good!"
"Really? You like it?" Gu Rongqi pulled the towel off his head and kissed her left cheek.
The damp strands of hair brushed against her cheeks, making her shiver in the sweltering heat.
Gu Rongqi, who had just taken a shower, was fair-skinned with a rosy glow and his hair was disheveled. Cheng Qicai's lust began to stir.
She exclaimed in disbelief that such a handsome man was actually her boyfriend; she could never have dreamed of such a wonderful thing!
Seeing Cheng Qicai's blushing and dazed expression, Gu Rongqi chuckled softly, "Qicai..."
Cheng Qicai snapped out of her thoughts and nodded honestly, "Yes, I like it very much."
She felt Gu Rongqi's breathing become heavier, and the strands of hair on her forehead were gently blown by Gu Rongqi. She could clearly see the doting look on Gu Rongqi's face.
Being gazed at so affectionately by such a handsome man, she could hardly contain her wildly beating heart and flushed face!
Ah!!! What is this if not a paradise for perverts?!
Cheng Qi tilted her head back and suddenly bit down on Gu Rongqi's chin before releasing it. She said angrily, "Don't talk to me like that."
She already knew Gu Rongqi's little tricks; he always used that tone and expression to deceive her.
What's infuriating is that she always falls for it, which is why she's so angry she wants to bite Gu Rongqi.
Gu Rongqi didn't expect Cheng Qicai to suddenly bite him. He touched his chin with the faint teeth marks and said helplessly, "Cheng Qicai, you're doing the opposite of what you're doing."
“Yes!” Cheng Qicai nodded confidently.
If someone had told her before that she would speak to Gu Rongqi with such confidence, she definitely wouldn't have believed it.
No, it's about her dating Gu Rongqi; she simply wouldn't believe it. They're completely different kinds of people...
However, now that they've been dating, she feels that she's really growing to like him more and more.
He's handsome and exactly what she wanted; she's incredibly lucky!
Seeing her adorable appearance, Gu Rongqi couldn't help but put his arm around her waist and lightly kiss her lips a few times.
Cheng Qicai took the opportunity to wrap her arms around his neck and pull his body down so that there was no gap between their lips.
Gu Rongqi was taken aback, but kissed Cheng Qicai without hesitation, and Cheng Qicai opened her mouth to respond.
The tension in the air was building.
Until the water droplets on Gu Rongqi's wet hair fell down the tips of her hair onto her face, and some of them disappeared between their intertwined lips as they moved.
The cool sensation made Cheng Qicai open her eyes, and she gently pushed Gu Rongqi's shoulder after letting go of his hand.
Between breaths, she mumbled, "Water from my hair got into my mouth..."
Gu Rongqi opened his eyes and saw the water droplets on her face. He kissed her a few more times on the lips before distancing himself from Cheng Qicai.
Seeing the water droplets that kept falling from Gu Rongqi's hair, Cheng Qicai suddenly asked, "Do you want me to help you dry your hair?"
Gu Rongqi handed her the towel beside him, and Cheng Qicai took the towel and carefully and gently dried his hair.
Feeling the hair that was neither too soft nor too hard under her hand, Cheng Qicai's mischievous side began to stir.
She started drying his hair roughly, twisting it into a shape like a mango pit that had been sucked, then tying it into a small bun on top of his head with a rubber band, and then ruffling it a couple of times to make it look like a trumpet flower.
Gu Rongqi felt a pulling sensation on his head. He reached up and touched his head. "What are you doing?"
"I'll style your hair, I guarantee it'll make you look super cool," Cheng Qicai assured him confidently.
After finishing the haircut, Cheng Qi looked at his finished product with satisfaction, got off the sofa, and went to Gu Rongqi to see his style.
Seeing Gu Rongqi's rocket-shaped hairstyle, Cheng Qicai burst out laughing, laughing so hard she couldn't straighten her back.
Gu Rongqi reached for his own hand, but Cheng Qicai immediately grabbed it, stopping him, "Don't..."
"Let me show you how I styled your hair, it's super... cool." She couldn't help but laugh again when she said "cool."
Gu Rongqi looked at her helplessly as she laughed until tears streamed down her face, and then squeezed her hand.
Since Gu Rongqi didn't have a mirror for makeup, Cheng Qicai took out her phone and switched the camera to front-facing.
She originally intended to use it as a mirror for him, but she thought Gu Rongqi's look was so funny that she couldn't help but make a peace sign herself and take two pictures.
Seeing that Gu Rongqi kept staring at her, she belatedly realized that she might have gone too far.
She'd taken unflattering photos of him before, but now, in front of him, especially since he remained silent, Cheng Qicai suddenly felt uneasy.
She awkwardly put her phone down. "Uh, you're not angry, are you?"
Gu Rongqi didn't speak, and continued to look at her.
Although he was now covered in spittle, his aura remained completely unaffected.
Cheng Qicai was immediately at a loss. She sat down next to Gu Rongqi and took his arm. "Okay, I was wrong. I'll delete your ugly photos. Don't be angry..."
She reached out and touched Gu Rongqi's head, then removed the hair tie and patted it flat.
The next second, her wrist was grabbed and released.
Gu Rongqi glanced at her and chuckled, "You took some unflattering photos of me before, and I wasn't angry, was I? Why are you so nervous?"
