Chapter 90 Thump Thump: My heartbeat seems to have stopped.

"Li Xin!"

Su Jinmu felt a little hot in the ears, as Li Xin pulled almost all of her slender, fair legs onto the carpet.

The blanket was haphazardly rolled around his waist, and he was about to fall whole to the ground.

Li Xin still held onto his ankle, showing no intention of letting go. His voice was slow and muffled as he stared intently at him, "Young Master, you were sleeping so soundly, why did you kick me? Tell me."

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu was about to fall completely off the bed when Li Xin sat on the carpet, ready to catch him. His long, strong hand slid up from Su Jinmu's ankle as he slid down, brushing against his calf.

Su Jinmu: "..."

If you fall any lower and sit on Li Xin's lap, then you'll really have to be completely honest with each other.

Su Jinmu pursed her lips, her ears turned red, and her heart was beating a little fast. Suddenly, she kicked Li Xin in the waist and abdomen with all her might.

With her white feet firmly planted, she used the recoil to smoothly return to the bed.

Su Jinmu breathed a sigh of relief.

Li Xin: "..."

Su Jinmu was still feeling hot and hadn't calmed down, so she rolled over and moved further into the bed.

He usually wakes up late in the morning, and by the time he wakes up, Li Xin has already climbed out the window and left. If he feels restless in the morning, he can usually calm down by lying down alone for a while.

As a result, Li Xin woke him up today, and his body's biological clock thought it was time.

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu glanced briefly at the blanket around her waist.

It was tangled up in a mess and not very noticeable.

Su Jinmu lowered her long eyelashes and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

“…Young Master.”

Li Xin pursed his lips, his pupils deep and dark, but his voice was very soft, as if he were aggrieved. When he got to the bed, his hand slipped under the covers again, still trying to grab Su Jinmu's ankle.

"No."

Su Jinmu turned around and glanced at him.

Li Xin's eyes darkened as he stared at the young master's slightly reddened earlobes. It didn't look like he was angry, but rather a little annoyed.

He seemed a little embarrassed.

Li Xin: "???!"

What's there to be embarrassed about with him?!

Li Xin tensed up a little, a layer of unknown danger shrouding him. He and the young master had been inseparable for eleven years. What was there that he couldn't let him know, or that he was embarrassed to let him know?

Li Xin dislikes that Su Jinmu has secrets from him.

He wanted the two of them to be completely honest with each other, day and night, intimately entwined together.

lifetime.

“…Young Master.”

"Young Master."

Li Xin stood up, his leg bone pressed against the edge of the bed, looking at the handsome young man lying on his side with his back to him. He lightly licked his scarlet lips and pressed his knee against the edge of the bed.

The next instant, he pressed down on her whole.

"Ugh...!"

Su Jinmu was suddenly pressed down by him, and the heavy weight on him made her almost choke on her breath. She let out a muffled groan and tilted her slender white neck upwards.

Li Xin used his fingers to flip Su Jinmu's shoulders, turning him flat and pressing him down again, his head against Su Jinmu's neck, rubbing against him.

"Young Master."

"……what?"

Su Jinmu and Li Xin were now separated only by a crumpled blanket.

Li Xin didn't hold back, pressing down very firmly.

Fortunately, the fever in my body has subsided.

Su Jinmu forced herself to stay focused, staring intently into Li Xin's eyes. "What are you doing?"

Why did you kick me, young master?

Su Jinmu: "...I can kick you whenever I want."

Li Xin smiled gently, her fingertips brushing against his earlobe. "Young Master, you can kick me, but you can't keep any secrets from me."

Su Jinmu: "..."

What kind of secret is this? Didn't Li Xin do this in the morning?

...Tsk, why is he thinking about all this?!

Su Jinmu's earlobes, which had finally calmed down, were starting to heat up again. She shoved Li Xin away, buried her face in her hands, and said, "There are no secrets. If there are, I'll tell you."

Su Jinmu clicked her tongue inwardly. Tomorrow, she absolutely must not get up early again. She must wait until Li Xin leaves before waking up.

Li Xin: "..."

Su Jinmu covered her head and drifted off to sleep.

Li Xin stared at Su Jinmu's silhouette, gently removed the blanket covering his mouth and nose, and stared intently.

...Really, there are no secrets?

Then why not tell him?

Li Xin's gaze swept greedily over the boy, and he gripped his wrist tightly, holding it firmly in his grasp.

The young boy grew taller very quickly. Su Jinmu grew taller rapidly, and his legs became straighter and longer. When he stood up, his waist was thin and his legs were long, which was very eye-catching.

However, due to rapid growth, I often experience muscle cramps at night.

Su Jinmu made a vow yesterday that she would sleep until Li Xin left before waking up today.

As soon as the sunlight outside shone down in a golden-red-orange hue, Su Jinmu was caught off guard in her sleep and lost her footing. Her calf twitched, and then her calf muscles began to tighten and cramp.

"Hmm!"

pain.

Su Jinmu suddenly opened his eyes, his temple throbbing. Just as he was about to sit up, a hand grabbed his wrist.

There was a figure sitting very close to him, leaning down a little, with his arm reaching out and gripping his calf.

The soft calf was pinched by a hand with distinct knuckles, and then pushed and kneaded heavily.

"...Ugh!"

Su Jinmu's vision suddenly went black, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

The hand gripped her wrist even tighter.

"Young Master." Li Xin massaged Su Jinmu's calf, feeling the muscles relax, then turned to look at him, his dark pupils revealing a gentle question, "Does it still hurt?"

Su Jinmu was breathing heavily. She rested her other arm, which was not being held by Li Xin, on her eyes, her lips slightly parted, and she breathed out.

Her pajamas were loose and lifted up, revealing a small section of her delicate waist and a small, soft, exquisitely shaped, bright red cupid's bow. She didn't have time to speak.

Li Xin's gaze darkened, and he curved his lips into a smile.

Young master.

His young master.

Li Xin's voice was very gentle, "Shall I rub it for you again?"

As he spoke, seeing that Su Jinmu hadn't recovered, he didn't wait for a reply, but instead raised his hand and pressed it against Su Jinmu's calf, slowly massaging it.

Li Xin's angle was a bit off, so he shifted his position slightly, and his little finger inadvertently brushed past Su Jinmu's waist.

The slightly cool temperature seeps into and brushes against warm areas like the waist and abdomen, amplifying the coolness from seven parts to eight.

Caught off guard, Su Jinmu suddenly trembled, her body shuddering slightly.

My sensitive nerves trembled as well.

A tingling, cool sensation followed by a burning sensation.

……Depend on.

Su Jinmu opened her eyes and glanced at Li Xin out of the corner of her eye.

How come again...?

Su Jinmu's earlobes burned, and she turned to the side, not reacting as violently as she had yesterday by kicking someone.

If I kick him again, that bastard Li Xin will definitely dig deep and won't let me off easily.

Su Jinmu took a breath, turned to her side, and pulled the blanket up slightly to cover herself.

She glanced at Li Xin, whose long eyelashes were half-drooping, and slowly closed his eyes, looking sleepy and wanting to go to sleep.

"...Young Master?"

Li Xin looked over, raised her hand to play with his hair, her fingertips lightly brushing against it.

Are you that sleepy? Ignore him.

Su Jinmu closed his eyes and felt Li Xin's fingertips playing with his hair, occasionally and unintentionally touching his forehead.

It was like a dragonfly skimming the water, fleeting and ephemeral, but it left a lingering tingling sensation on the skin.

"Go to sleep."

Li Xin lay back down, facing Su Jinmu very close, and lay directly on Su Jinmu's pillow.

Even their breaths are wet and mingled together.

Li Xin stared at the young master's appearance, a smile playing on his lips, and moved a little closer.

Su Jinmu's fingertips curled slightly under the blanket, and the next moment, her nose was gently touched.

The air was even more damp and murky.

"!!"

Thump!

Su Jinmu felt a sudden numbness in her heart, and an electric current inexplicably spread throughout her body, leaving her feeling inexplicably stiff.

My heart started beating faster.

Why?

A question mark quietly surfaced in Su Jinmu's mind.

.

High school life went by quickly, and graduation came in the blink of an eye.

During the graduation ceremony, their class performed a short play. Su Jinmu and Li Xin both appeared on stage, but there were no lines of interaction. Li Xin only came out after Su Jinmu left the stage.

On stage, Su Jinmu delivered her lines with practiced ease, wearing a well-fitting suit with subtle shimmer, her waistline accentuated to be both slender and delicate.

With skin as white as jade and beautiful eyebrows and eyes, she looked exactly like an exquisite jade sculpture made of snow and jade under the light.

But his clear, sparkling eyes and rosy lips added a touch of vibrant spirit to his appearance.

Li Xin watched from the backstage waiting area, while the three members of the Xu family watched from below the stage, each staring intently without looking away.

Su Han looked at her youngest son, her lips curving upwards involuntarily, yet she was also overcome with emotion and tears welled up in her eyes. A surge of intense emotions welled up in her chest.

Lately, she's been having recurring dreams about the amusement park incident from over a decade ago, including dreams about that human trafficker.

In the blink of an eye, Mumu has grown up so much.

Thankfully, I wasn't kidnapped by human traffickers.

Thankfully, her child is safe and sound with her.

Su Han's eyes welled up with tears. She grabbed Xu Yu's hand next to her and squeezed it gently.

Xu Yu handed her a piece of paper, a slight smile appearing on her indifferent face.

“I cried when I graduated, and now Mumu is crying when she graduates. I’ve never been this sentimental before.”

Su Han chuckled softly, "I'm happy to see you and Mu Mu grow up."

After Su Jinmu finished his scene, he left the area offstage. He didn't wait backstage, but went directly to his seat in the dark.

Looking at the family members, a smile curved his face, he gently hugged his mother, and sat down beside her.

Su Han patted his head and continued watching the play.

Just then, Li Xin appeared. He played an evil dragon who had transformed into human form, dressed in a black tuxedo. The deep darkness between his eyebrows and eyes almost blended into his entire aura.

A heavy, horrifying look.

But... it's also quite beautiful.

Su Jinmu looked up and saw that Li Xin was very tall, and still taller than him after all these years.

The stage lights shifted and changed, creating a chaotic scene. Li Xin glanced over from the stage and their eyes met firmly.

His appearance and expression were different from what they showed at that moment.

Li Xin's eyes were dark, but they held an enigmatic smile.

The scene needs to transition, and the light dims away from him.

In that instant, Su Jinmu saw Li Xin's lips move slightly.

Lip-syncing to him—

Young master.

Look at me more.

Su Jinmu: "..."

Su Jinmu laughed, and her heart started beating faster again.

Knock knock.

Knock knock.

It echoed in my chest.

Su Jinmu raised her hand and touched her chest slightly, feeling a surge of inexplicable emotion.

A strange flutter in my heart.

"Mother."

Su Jinmu looked at Su Han and said, "I'm going backstage to change my clothes."

Su Han smiled and nodded, "Go ahead, go ahead."

Su Jinmu got up and went backstage to the changing room to change her clothes.

He had just unbuttoned one button when a shadow fell over him, and a pale hand reached out and touched his button.

"Young Master."

A low, gentle voice sounded nearby. Su Jinmu's hand was on his clothes when Li Xin's hand pressed down, inadvertently covering his knuckles.

The familiar, cool temperature was transmitted over me.

“Young Master has been watching me the whole time.” Li Xin’s lips curled into a slow smile, his eyes hiding a hint of sly greed. “He hasn’t wavered or looked away even a little.”

Knock knock.

thump thump...

My heart started beating again.

Su Jinmu's breathing became lighter, but his heartbeat was still heavy. Li Xin unbuttoned his shirt and touched the thin clothes underneath. Suddenly, he noticed something, turned his head slightly, and showed a hint of doubt.

"Hmm? My heart is beating so fast."

Su Jinmu: "..."

Hmm, my heartbeat seems to have stopped.
