Chapter 28

In the evening, Su Wenxing's mother made a video call to him.

Su Wenxing felt guilty for doing something wrong, and her eyes kept darting away when she answered the video call.

Seeing this, Su's mother frowned, thinking that Su Wenxing was not feeling well. She couldn't help but ask with some concern, "Baby, are you not feeling well? Are you having an attack?"

Su Wenxing: "No, I haven't had an attack since I got the system."

Su Wenxing knew very well that he had not had another relapse, which must be because the system was protecting him.

"If you're not sick, why do you look so pale? It's not that cold these days, so why are you bundled up like this?"

Su Wenxing saw that her mother was very anxious, and looked like she would keep asking until she got a clear answer.

He hesitated for a moment, but still told her about his relationship with Qin Lian.

Su's mother didn't seem surprised when she heard this. Ever since she learned about that system, she had gone back and read a lot of related novels.

Upon learning the true meaning of "succubus," Su's mother was only worried for a fleeting moment.

Considering that Su Wenxing was bound to Qin Lian, Su's mother felt that Su Wenxing wasn't at a disadvantage, and she wasn't so bothered by it anymore.

Yes, because her target was Qin Lian, she didn't have as many bottom lines.

It's not that she, as a mother, is heartless; it's mainly because Qin Lian is also her child.

She knew Qin Lian very well and liked him very much.

If she had to entrust her child to someone in the future, Qin Lian was the only person she could trust.

She had considered girls, and she had thought that Su Wenxing might date a girl.

However, this girl must be relatively strong and independent, otherwise they won't be happy together.

Su Wenxing was spoiled by them and was a little naive.

If he were to find another equally naive person, they might not be able to protect the Su family's business. In fact, because the Su family is so wealthy, they might attract the attention of some ill-intentioned people.

But if she entrusted Su Wenxing to another man, she worried that the man might have ulterior motives.

What if they want to exploit someone who has no descendants and end up killing Su Wenxing? Wouldn't they be heartbroken?

So, for Su's mother, she genuinely thought Qin Lian was very good and excellent.

If... they could really become a couple, that would be the best thing for the Su family.

Su's mother: "Do you...do you like Qin Lian or not?"

Su Wenxing: "Yes, I like him. He's my good buddy, of course I like him."

"Mom didn't ask about this kind of liking, Mom meant that kind of liking, that kind of liking."

"That kind? Which kind?"

"It's... you want to be with him forever, you love him, and you don't want to give him up to someone else."

Hearing her mother say this, Su Wenxing thought about it seriously.

To be honest, he couldn't quite believe how he would feel if Qin Lian ended up with someone else.

It must be very sad, right?

After all... they grew up together, and Qin Lian had never had anyone else by his side, so he was used to Qin Lian being good to him.

If one day Qin Lian distances himself from him because he falls in love with someone else, he... he would probably feel very sad, right?

"Oh, Mom, don't interfere in my relationship with him. We're both adults, and we know what's going on in our lives."

"Are you really sure?"

"Yes, I understand. Don't worry."

After hanging up her mother's call, Su Wenxing buried herself in the blankets.

He's not one to waste time internally; he doesn't like to dwell on things he can't figure out or things that are too complicated.

So he lay there thinking for a while, but his thoughts became a little chaotic, so he simply stopped thinking about it.

In the following days, his physical condition improved a lot, and he no longer felt dizzy as often as before. He then started going out to exercise with Qin Lian.

When you start exercising, you definitely shouldn't push yourself too hard, otherwise the exercise will backfire.

So they started by walking slowly and briskly.

Walk briskly first, then jog slowly.

Occasionally, I practice Baduanjin (Eight Pieces of Brocade) and Tai Chi.

Later, he even got a gym membership and, under Qin Lian's supervision, gradually increased the intensity of his workouts.

During their workout, they completed another system task.

The task this time was still to stick together, since they had done it once before and neither of them was particularly resistant.

It's just that... it was a little hard to part ways when it ended; they acted like a really close couple.

Su Wenxing didn't think there was anything wrong with it, after all, they were all men, and men are animals that think with their lower bodies.

This is definitely not love, but rather an adult's need.

So when he noticed that Qin Lian's gaze towards him had become a little strange, and that she wouldn't let go of him when pressing down on him.

Su Wenxing explained to Qin Lian and himself, "Well, it's okay. You're an adult, a man, and it's inevitable that you'll be impulsive. Your reaction isn't surprising."

Upon hearing this, Qin Lian replied, "Is that so?"

"Yeah, don't even mention you, I'm a little addicted too. Hehe, brother, take it easy, we've just been single for too long."

Qin Lian didn't say anything more, but silently carried him into the bathroom.

When Qin Lian was giving Su Wenxing a bath, Su Wenxing didn't like Qin Lian touching his legs.

"Don't bother washing it, I'll do it myself."

Qin Lian glanced at a certain part of his body and said with a hint of amusement, "Didn't you say it didn't matter?"

"It's okay, it's okay, but... we just did *that*, and my body's a little fuzzy."

After being touched twice by Qin Lian, he felt something was off, as if something was stirring within him.

Qin Lian: "If you want it, we can do it again."

"Oh, really? But... wouldn't that be a bad idea?"

"You wanted to kiss me before, and I agreed to it, didn't I?"

At that time, Su Wenxing felt that kissing was quite comfortable, especially when facing Qin Lian's handsome face, he felt it was a very enjoyable thing.

But... today's events, he... enjoyed them while also experiencing hardship.

Also, going to bed and kissing are not quite the same.

Kissing is easy, but going to bed is too hard.

Su Wenxing: "I don't want it anymore, let's just kiss. I like kissing you, kissing helps relieve the tension."

Qin Lian glanced at him again upon hearing this, "Are you sure kissing will relieve it?"

"I'm sure!"

"Alright then."

So Qin Lian sat in the bathtub, then held Su Wenxing's cheek and gave him a very gentle and lingering kiss.

Su Wenxing felt as if she wasn't kissing, but drinking a brand of red wine called Qin Lian.

I felt a little dizzy, like I was in a dream, or like I was flying.

Su Wenxing hugged Qin Lian and said, "You can't laugh at me. I have no choice. I've never seen the world and I've never talked to anyone, so I'm useless."

Qin Lian tidied his wet hair back, revealing his very full forehead.

Qin Lian: "I'm not laughing at you. What you said before was right. It's only natural for you to feel this way. I won't laugh at you."

Upon hearing Qin Lian's words, Su Wenxing couldn't help but sit in Qin Lian's lap.

Never mind, anyway... there's no one else here, and Qin Lian would never laugh at him.

As long as they don't tell anyone, no one else will know.

Thinking this, Su Wenxing hugged Qin Lian's shoulders and let Qin Lian kiss his neck.

After this incident, Su Wenxing felt quite embarrassed when she woke up.

He checked his phone and decided not to go to school today.

He needed to rest, and he didn't want to see Qin Lian either, feeling extremely embarrassed.

However, he didn't want to see Qin Lian, but Qin Lian still brought in the porridge.

He overslept this morning and hasn't eaten anything yet.

Qin Lian came over and brought him some porridge, and Su Wenxing blushed and lowered his head to slowly drink the porridge.

Qin Lian looked at him for a long time before finally speaking, "How about... we really get together?"

"Huh? What??"

"I'm saying, let's really be together, okay?"

"Ah, why? Didn't I say we're both men? I'm not at fault, and neither are you. I... we'll just treat it as an adult need. I... I don't need you to take responsibility."

"But I want you to take responsibility for me."

Upon hearing Qin Lian's words, Su Wenxing almost threw the bowl in her hand.

Fortunately, Qin Lian reacted quickly and immediately took his bowl of porridge away.

Qin Lian had been thinking about this for a long time these past few days. He felt that even if Su Wenxing was healthy, she would still need someone to take care of her.

He also needs a partner, otherwise his parents won't feel at ease with him.

Since they'll need someone to be with them sooner or later, why don't they just get together?

As for whether you like it or not?

Qin Lian must like Su Wenxing, otherwise he wouldn't have worked so hard for him as a farmhand since he was a child.

Of course, his initial liking stemmed from ordinary friends.

He just likes Su Wenxing as a person; he thinks Su Wenxing is cute and fun.

As for when it went bad, Qin Lian felt it must have started recently.

From the moment they began to have frequent intimate contact, Qin Lian realized that he didn't find it disgusting, and actually quite enjoyed touching Su Wenxing.

In his eyes, Su Wenxing was weak, soft, and simple.

He wanted to protect him, and he also wanted to touch him.

If they are destined to find a partner to spend the rest of their lives with.

Qin Lian felt that he and Su Wenxing were a perfect match.

Su Wenxing: "But...but you didn't lose out."

"Men also have virginity. If I'm no longer a virgin, how am I supposed to find a partner? I'm not a liar, and I don't want my future partner to think I'm a jerk."

"But... I haven't decided yet."

"You're so irresponsible, you look like a total jerk."

"I'm not a jerk!"

"Then take responsibility for me!"

"I... I'll take responsibility. It's just one more mouth to feed. I, the young master of the Su family, can afford to support it."

After saying that, Su Wenxing regretted it a little.

He knew Qin Lian too well. If they really got together, it would be very difficult for them to break up unless one of them died.

In other words, he settled his life's destiny in just a few words.

But... if he goes back on his word now, it will confirm that he is a scumbag.

When Qin Lian tells his parents about it, he'll definitely get a double beating.
