"I was originally a wealthy family's young miss, but at fourteen, it was discovered I was the wrongly swapped fake phoenix. The true young miss was welcomed back, my foster parents abandone...
"Miss me?" Shang Shaoheng seemed to find it very interesting. "Miss what about me?"
Of course I want to kill you - Jiang Rong thought to himself.
"I was wondering how someone as outstanding as Instructor Shang could be still single!" Jiang Rong asked, "Hasn't he found someone he likes?"
Shang Shaoheng was silent for two or three seconds before saying, "Didn't I tell you that if you dare mention your sister in front of me again, I'll chop her up and feed her to the fish?"
Jiang Rong quickly said, "I didn't mention it! You brought it up yourself!"
At the same time, he comforted 022 in his heart: "Look, he's already remembered Jiang Panyu. This means our mission is making progress. Congratulations, congratulations!"
022: [Can it still be calculated this way? ]
[Why not?] Jiang Rong said, [Look, he couldn't even remember the heroine's name before, but now at least he knows she's my sister, right?]
022: [Yes, that’s right.]
Shang Shaoheng scoffed and said, "Get me something."
Jiang Rong: “?”
Shang Shaoheng said, "It's on the second floor of my suitcase."
Jiang Rong opened the suitcase and saw several pairs of underwear neatly placed on the second layer.
Black, grey, flat angle.
Fireworks started going off in Jiang Rong's head, and she immediately closed the suitcase and calmed herself down.
Shang Shaoheng's voice was a little impatient: "What's taking so long?"
Jiang Rong thought to himself, if you think I'm slow, why don't you just run out naked to get it?
She hesitated for a long time, finally sighed, closed her eyes, picked one at random, and took it to Shang Shaoheng.
The hot steam from the bathroom kept coming out, making Jiang Rong's neck red. She nodded and said, "Here."
After a while, a muscular arm stretched out from inside, with water dripping down along the beautiful muscle curves. However, he was not in a hurry to take the thing. Instead, he slowly looked at Jiang Rong's red neck: "Are you shy?"
Jiang Rong: "...Next time I take a shower, I'll ask you to get me some underwear, and you'll do the same."
Shang Shaoheng raised his eyebrows: "Really? Then try it next time."
Jiang Rong: "..." What kind of shameless person can say such shameless words so calmly.
Just when Jiang Rong was about to throw the underwear in impatiently, the hand finally took it. The moisture on it made Jiang Rong's fingertips tremble, and he quickly withdrew it.
"I thought someone like you who kisses others casually wouldn't be shy." Shang Shaoheng spoke again.
"What do you mean by kissing someone casually? I was forced by the situation—"
Shang Shaoheng paused and said, "I didn't know you would feel uncomfortable. Be careful next time."
Jiang Rong was a little confused.
Is Shang Shaoheng... apologizing to her?
Would someone like Shang Shaoheng apologize?
She sat back on the bed in a daze, and it took about a minute for her to come to her senses.
...There's a next time?! Shang Shaoheng still wants a next time?!
Jiang Rong was so angry that he grabbed the pillow and slammed it twice on the bed. When he wanted to throw the pillow back, he found that the sheets and pillow were stained with the faint cypress scent of Shang Shaoheng.
This wood, whose scientific name is Mediterranean cypress and Latin name is Cupressus sempervirrns, means "eternal life". In legends, it is always regarded as a plant related to death. In Greek mythology, the sun god Apollo once turned a young man into a cypress tree. The cross carried by Jesus is rumored to be made of cypress.
Although it is a tree that represents death and mourning, the essential oil extracted from it has a calm, cold, and safe woody fragrance.
"This perfume smells quite nice." Jiang Rong murmured.
"What are you doing holding my pillow?" Shang Shaoheng suddenly spoke.
He was wearing loose black silk pajamas, with water dripping from the ends of his hair. He stood at the balcony door looking at Jiang Rong with an expressionless face.
Jiang Rong hesitated for a moment and said, "If I say I want to ask you for a perfume link, would you believe me?"
"Perfume?" Shang Shaoheng frowned. "I don't use that kind of stuff. It should be the smell of shower gel."
He had just finished taking a shower, and the hot steam was rising. The scent of cypress wood in the room was indeed gradually becoming stronger.
"If you want to ask me for the link to the shower gel, go ask Chi Er." Shang Shaoheng said casually, "It should have been developed by one of Shang's daily chemical subsidiaries."
Jiang Rong: [I use the same scent of shower gel as him. Am I crazy?]
022: [But you can recommend it to the heroine! ]
Jiang Rong's eyes lit up and he thought, yes, is 022 really a genius?
It's so intimate that a young couple uses the same fragrance.
She took note of this matter and planned to ask Chi Er about it after returning to Yancheng.
"Now, get up." Shang Shaoheng looked at her with his dark eyes: "The place where you sleep is the floor."
Jiang Rong got up with a depressed look on his face and went to wash up. Then he searched around the dormitory and finally found a spare quilt.
She spread out her clothes on the floor. Since she had taken a shower before going out, she was too lazy to shower again and simply rolled herself into the quilt, thinking out of sight, out of mind.
Shang Shaoheng dried his hair, ignored her, turned off the lights and went to bed.
In the middle of the night, Jiang Rong woke up.
Woke up by the cold.
Even though it was summer, the temperature difference between day and night in the mountains was still very large. At night, the temperature might be less than ten degrees Celsius. She would sleep on the cool floor and it would be strange if she didn't wake up from the cold.
Jiang Rong turned over and sat up, looking at the person sleeping on the bed in the moonlight, and said to 022: [I have a very vicious idea.]
022 Trembling: [If you want to pierce the male protagonist's kidney while he's sleeping, Teacher Jiang, please think twice! ]
