Chapter 56 Warm Current

◎Alas◎

The cold war was limited to Shi Hanqiao and Luo Wusheng. Since what they agreed to last night, there really had not been a single word between the two, but their daily lives had not been affected at all.

The Kovia siblings, who were actually in a cold war, disliked each other, and the other three avoided being in the same room with them to avoid being affected by their war.

As a result, Luo Wuming and the other three had more time to chat with Shi Hanqiao and Luo Wusheng, after all, it was safer with them.

As for Girl A saying that they were in a cold war, Luo Wuming just thought she was joking with him, "It must be that my cousin and you are working together to play a prank on us. I don't believe it."

Josephine was excited: "What game are you two playing? Take me with you!"

Shi Hanqiao: ...

She tilted her head to look at the young man beside her, her eyes filled with helplessness.

'We're really in a cold war.'

'Yes, but they don't believe it.'

Luo Wusheng pursed his lips and shrugged helplessly.

Seeing the two looking at each other, Luo Wuming once again lamented his improved IQ. He would not be fooled so easily!

Sure enough, these two people were definitely conspiring to play a prank on him.

Ulysses stood silently behind his sister, his eyes moving back and forth between the two of them.

During the day, everything went on as usual, with classes and training.

At night, since the two were still in the cold war period, it was impossible for Shi Hanqiao to go to Luo Wusheng's place.

But if the mountain is not me, then I am the mountain.

Luo Wusheng knocked on Girl A's door as usual. After saying that he wanted to start a cold war, he opened the door himself instead of using the remote control.

Apart from not talking to each other, the relationship between the two was not affected by the 'cold war' at all.

Shi Hanqiao's mood, which had calmed down, was stirred again after she saw the young man. It wasn't irritation, but a feeling she couldn't quite put her finger on.

She has been frantically designing blueprints of mechas of different levels and styles and making model tests recently, just to focus her time on the mechas so that she has no time to be affected by her emotions.

But being too efficient is not a good thing, as she ends up having more free time at night.

She was making the final adjustments to the model intermittently, and taking advantage of the model's cover, she would inadvertently cast her eyes towards the young man opposite her.

It took just over ten minutes, and the final adjustments were complete. Higher-level mecha theory and design studies would have to be conducted in the closed-off section of the library. She planned to go there after the end of the semester, so she could go to the Royal Library after returning to the capital planet.

In this way, there was no chance for Shi Hanqiao to inadvertently look at the young man by adjusting the model, so he adjusted his sitting posture, leaned on the sofa casually, supported his face with his left hand, pulled the pillow with his right hand, and looked at Luo Wusheng openly.

Her unabashedly frank gaze first fell on the pair of phoenix eyes that had captivated her from the beginning. He lowered his eyes slightly to look at the screen, focused and serious. The small mole at the end of his left eye looked like a boat swaying on a slightly drunk summer lake under the warm yellow light.

What attracted her at first to Luo Wusheng was his eyes, or to be more precise, his gaze.

Just like in the astral world, W had a templated appearance and figure, and she was once again attracted by his eyes.

At the beginning, she was just killing time and keeping someone she found interesting around. She didn't expect that Luo Wusheng and W would be the same person later, nor did she expect that she would no longer regard him as a toy to kill time and an unnecessary one, but as her true and only friend.

Now, the eyes that conceal ambition and emit a determined light are lurking at the bottom of the sea. The phoenix eyes handle affairs calmly and gently, which is quite beautiful.

But somehow, Shi Hanqiao always thought of the phoenix eyes occupied by her own figure on the sea under the moonlight. It seemed that those were the most beautiful eyes she had ever seen.

But now the phoenix eyes were not looking at her, but the Demon Lord did not feel annoyed, and his gaze wandered from his eyes to other places.

To be honest, she had never paid much attention to Luo Wusheng's appearance. His face, with its perfect combination of skin and bone structure, was impeccable no matter from which angle he looked at it. A strand of his long golden hair fell on his shoulders, adding a touch of casualness under the light.

The casual home clothes appear loose and wide, yet they wrap the slender body tightly, leaving no skin exposed.

Her fingertips tapped lightly on the pillow from time to time, and Shi Hanqiao's eyes unconsciously fell on the young man's waistline. The clothes perfectly covered everything, but she still remembered his tight waist, which felt better when hugged than the pillow.

Luo Wusheng sits upright while working, his pants outlining his strong thighs and well-proportioned calves.

Shi Hanqiao took a quick glance and then turned his gaze back to the young man's face, half with admiration and half in a daze.

She suddenly realized that if the person opposite her was Luo Wusheng, it would be interesting to do nothing and just watch him for a whole day.

The young man who was working seriously was not as calm as he appeared to be. After sitting down, he was relaxed as usual, but when he noticed the vague gaze from the opposite side, he became nervous unconsciously. He tried his best to adjust his breathing and tense body without making any sound.

Although his eyes were on the video, his mind was completely on the woman A opposite him, and he tried his best to resist the urge to look back.

After calming down his excited mood and violently beating heart, he noticed through the sound and peripheral vision that the other party's gaze was no longer looking at him through the mecha model, but was lazily lying on the sofa, looking at him generously and directly.

The young man's heart tightened, then slowly relaxed, and he calmly accepted Woman A's straightforward gaze.

Her gaze was direct but without any ill intention, and did not make him feel uncomfortable. It was as if she was simply appreciating the beauty of the mecha or the natural scenery.

After the initial nervousness and shyness passed, joy unconsciously emerged. Luo Wusheng recalled what he had been wearing over the past few days and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. His home clothes were loose but tight, revealing nothing. How would the female A opposite him look at him?

Luo Wusheng made a mistake. His purpose was simple: to make the girl A on the opposite side like him, no matter what means he used.

Therefore, the next night, the young man changed into a bathrobe, wanting to be reserved but also to seduce girl A quietly.

Of course, bathrobes also cover tightly, but unlike clothes, they will become looser to varying degrees over time and with the movement of the human body.

Just as he crossed his legs, the slit black bathrobe formed a sharp contrast with his white calves, and the ends swayed gently, as soft and lovely as feathers.

However, tonight Shi Hanqiao was assembling a mecha model again, and its appearance did not look like any other mecha on the market.

I waited for a long time, but no one even looked at me for a moment.

Luo Wusheng dejectedly opened the screen and took care of his own affairs. In addition to making money, he had many other things to do. The interests of cooperation were not only in business, but also in the military/political and other forces.

Except for Shi Qi, no one knew that he was the anonymous investor of the Ninth District's Ordnance Department ten years ago.

Every night was the most stressful time for him because he had to deal with huge and complicated affairs and information, but since Han Qiao sometimes accompanied him, it became a time for relaxation and comfort.

No matter how urgent the matter was, he could handle it with ease. The strong but orderly and focused state of the female A on the opposite side was invisibly affecting him.

After independently designing a new S-class mecha, Shi Hanqiao assembled a model to determine its feasibility. Previously, mecha blueprints were readily available, and the assembly and disassembly process could be fully mastered through theory and practice. However, independent design is different. It must be different from existing mechas while also meeting the designer's goals. Many problems arise during the assembly process.

Woman A discovered too many problems, and once the model was assembled, her draft was effectively scrapped. The mecha she envisioned was too functional, and S-grade materials simply couldn't fully meet her requirements.

Failure is not a big deal.

Shi Hanqiao has experienced countless failures on her path of cultivation. It must be said that her strong mentality was also honed through repeated experiences of failure.

The first draft failed, so she would revise the design tomorrow. She also had to tidy up the scattered parts on her desk. Shi Hanqiao yawned and prepared for bed. She felt uncomfortable sitting in that position for too long, so she slowly stood up and stretched her limbs. Then, looking down, she saw the young man who had fallen asleep on the sofa across from her.

She looked at the time. It was twelve o'clock in the morning, later than any other time.

No wonder they were so sleepy that they fell asleep.

She walked lightly to the sofa, her gaze fixed on the young man's peaceful sleeping face. His snow-white neck and shoulders, half-hidden by his black clothes, and the delicate line of his collarbone caught her eye. His bathrobe loosened slightly with his breathing, revealing a small patch of snow-white skin beneath his collarbone.

The belt outlines the perfect waistline and abdominal muscles, and the black end overlaps and hangs down under the sofa, revealing the well-proportioned and slender legs.

Shi Hanqiao unconsciously stretched out his hand.

Luo Wusheng felt like his heart was about to jump out. He tried hard to control his breathing rate and violently beating heart, and kept his tightly closed eyes still, for fear of revealing any flaw.

There were a lot of things to do today, and he just finished them ten minutes ago. He wanted to rest on the sofa for a while, and his consciousness had actually already vaguely entered a light sleep state, but when he felt the shadow covering the light, he immediately woke up and realized that Shi Hanqiao was standing next to him.

When one cannot see, one's other senses will be amplified. In addition, Luo Wusheng's mental power is above 2S, so he can even feel the hand of female A coming towards him.

My mind went blank, I couldn't think of anything, only the most straightforward emotions were left - anticipation, nervousness, uneasiness...

Several emotions intertwined like a tangled mess, and the short time seemed to stretch infinitely. He was completely unable to sort out his thoughts until he felt a cold touch at the corner of his left eye.

The long and complicated thoughts stopped at the moment when Shi Hanqiao's fingertips fell. Time seemed to solidify and become eternal. The tangled emotions seemed to be controlled by external forces and stopped in the private space dimension.

After about six or seven seconds, the touch disappeared, as if the button had been withdrawn, and Luo Wusheng's thoughts began to surge again, his thoughts scattering aimlessly, completely lacking the focus and logic of his commands.

Then he felt cold fingertips on his shoulders, or to be more precise, on the shoulders of his bathrobe.

His heart was in his throat, and even breathing had become an instinct after his brain shut down. Luo Wusheng couldn't help but think that Shi Hanqiao was also an Alpha.

Alphas are mostly visual animals and are easily seduced.

It is true that he wanted girl A to like him, but he had not yet considered having sex with her.

However, the current situation does not allow him to think so much. He only has time to think about the only key question: if woman A wants to have sex, will he be willing?

Having sex and marking are two different things.

Luo Wusheng thought, he was willing.

The chaotic thoughts in his mind only lasted a moment, and he could feel the fingertips on his shoulders picking up the thin bathrobe.

Instead of pulling it open upwards, it closes downwards.

Luo Wusheng felt his clothes covering his collarbone, and then a thin blanket was covered on him. Then he was picked up and carried out together with the blanket.

When he lay back down on his bed, Shi Hanqiao tucked in the quilt for him, adjusted the temperature, humidity, and air freshness, turned off the lights, and left before he opened his eyes again.

The frustration and disappointment in my heart are only temporary, but what I feel more is the warmth of being cared for.

His heart, which had a fixed frequency but beat extra hard whenever he thought of Shi Hanqiao, felt as if a warm current was flowing through it, just like the warmth of being wrapped in a blanket.

【Author’s words】

Tomorrow will be updated at 12 o'clock as usual. I'll make an advertisement and check out the pre-collection of the child next door.

What to do if you fall in love with your mortal enemy at first sight? The heroine is always in love with him, and the hero is probably a beautiful, strong, and tragic character (he is pitifully treated by the heroine in this way or that~)

Irresponsible Little Theater:

Now

Mou Sheng: I have decided to do it with you, what are you doing?

Mou Qiao: It’s late at night, and if I don’t cover myself with a blanket, I’ll catch a cold and feel uncomfortable.

Mou Sheng: You can’t do it!

after

One night, Mou Sheng couldn't bear it anymore. She hugged Mou Qiao's neck, gasping for breath, and begged for mercy: Wait... wait...

Finally stopping, he lay on the bed like a dying fish, breathing in the air scented with lily of the valley. One hand stroked his slightly damp blond hair and wiped away the water from the corners of his eyes.

The slightly cold air turned hot again. Someone grabbed someone else's wrist and said, "No...no...I can't...take it anymore..."

Mou Qiao gently pried open his fingers one by one, her eyes direct and focused, filling the rapidly breathing Mou Sheng. Mou Sheng was unconsciously seduced, his emotions making him unable to resist letting her take his next action, but reason suddenly emerged, and he closed his eyes, not looking at her, steeling his heart and shaking his head, wondering if he would get out of bed after a few more times.

A palm pressed against his jaw. Mou Sheng opened his eyes, his breathing trembling. He couldn't control his body's reaction, so he could only let the person who occupied his entire field of vision do whatever she wanted...

In the mist, Mou Sheng, who was about to reach the top of the mountain, was stopped by Mou Qiao. She smiled gently but viciously: Are you satisfied? Am I still okay?

Mou Sheng's eyes were red and he begged for mercy tremblingly, saying that he was satisfied and it was okay.

afterwards

Mou Sheng: Why do you hold a grudge for so long!!!

A certain Qiao: I just remember every word you said.
