He Shiwen subconsciously raised her hand and gently rubbed the scar with her fingertips. Her tone unconsciously became much softer. "You've suffered a lot these days...Are these injuries caused by you following that traitor?"
"Well," Bai Mo said in a muffled voice, "It's inevitable to get hurt when helping him."
"Bai Mo, let me ask you, what are you really thinking?" He Shiwen's tone was a little urgent, but her eyes were full of concern. "Do you really want to help that idiot forever? Are you determined to stick to this path until the end?"
“…”
Bai Mo lowered his head and remained silent.
"Speak! Give me the straight answer!" He Shiwen pressed Bai Mo's shoulders, and her deliberately lowered voice was hoarse with a hint of crying.
Bai Mo closed his eyes and suppressed the pain that was emerging.
"I can't leave."
"What do you mean there's no way? What kind of drug did that idiot give you?"
He Shiwen was furious.
Could it be that Bai Mo was so determined to help that idiot because he was so good-looking? When she thought of this result, she felt like going crazy.
Bai Mo hesitated to speak.
Once he leaves, Dennis will make public the fact that Bai Ying had saved him before, which will inevitably affect Bai Ying's smooth life.
Bai Ying had already been implicated because of his smuggling, and he couldn't bear to see Bai Ying implicated again because of himself.
As for He Shiwen...
He admitted that he owed her too much.
Seeing Bai Mo's pouting face, He Shiwen was furious. She punched Bai Mo in anger and said, "Bai Mo, what do you mean? You've seen my body naked, and you're not going to take responsibility?"
Bai Mo didn't dodge. He staggered slightly after being punched, and a layer of pain appeared in his eyes. "He Shiwen, I'm sorry for you. I may not be able to take responsibility for you in this life. If there is a next life..."
"What the hell is next life!"
He Shiwen was so angry that she jumped up and down. "I don't know whether I will be a toad or a fly in my next life. How will you be responsible when the time comes?"
"ha!"
At such a tense moment, Bai Mo suddenly smiled.
He Shiwen was almost pissed off. She stared at Bai Mo, wishing she could skin him alive and eat his flesh. "How dare you laugh! What do you mean?"
"Ahem!" Bai Mo clenched his fist to block the upward curve of his lips, racking his brains to explain, "What I meant was... you are so beautiful. Even if you can't become a human in your next life, you won't become a fly or a mosquito. You can only be a flower, jade, or cloud."
"Puff! Do you really think I'm pretty?"
He Shiwen was only angry for a few seconds before she was amused.
She couldn't believe that Bai Mo, such a dull man, would actually say such sweet words to her... Her heart felt sweet for a moment.
Putting all the concerns just now behind her, He Shiwen did not press Bai Mo to ask again, hoping to get a satisfactory answer, but instead -
He Shiwen leaned over and kissed Bai Mo on the face, then declared domineeringly: "Okay, whether you like it or not, you are already mine!"
“…”
The coldness in Bai Mo's eyes melted instantly, and the tense heartstrings were faintly touched.
"Um."
An inaudible sound was squeezed out of his throat.
There must be another way.
I can do this without hurting my younger sister or letting He Shiwen down.
A best of both worlds solution.
——
That night.
Bai Mo and his group temporarily stayed at Old Lady Li's house.
In order to prevent Wang Tiejun from having any bad intentions towards Bai Ying and He Shiwen, Bai Mo slept in his clothes at the door of the cabin.
Inside the room, Bai Ying and He Shiwen squeezed onto a small bed, huddling together for warmth.
Fortunately, He Shiwen's clothes were finally dry. She changed into her own clothes and returned Bai Mo's clothes intact.
Bai Ying naturally did not miss this scene. She did not ask the two of them on the spot. She kept it in mind quietly and mentioned it to He Shiwen when she went to bed at night.
"He Shiwen, let me ask you, what's going on between you and my second brother?"
Bai Ying reached out and poked He Shiwen, who was lying flat on the bed disguised as a living dead.
He Shiwen impatiently reached out and slapped away Bai Ying's rebellious fingers. She turned her back to Bai Ying and said incoherently, "Nothing's wrong. Who is your second brother? I've never seen him and I don't know him."
"Still pretending!" Bai Ying also turned over and stared at the back of He Shiwen's head. "My second brother is not a warm-hearted man. He would not take off his clothes to wear other women. If he is not interested in you, he would not do this."
"What? He's interested in me!"
Upon hearing this, He Shiwen immediately stopped pretending and turned over to ask Bai Ying for confirmation: "Really? Are you telling the truth?"
He Shiwen's eyes sparkled, and she grabbed Bai Ying's clothes by her shoulders and swung them back and forth.
Bai Ying was almost dizzy. She said helplessly, "Cooked."
"Speak up! Speak up!"
He Shiwen shook even harder, as if she was determined to get the answer.
Bai Ying could only answer honestly: "Of course, you know my second brother has a bad temper. He doesn't know how to be gentle with women. If he didn't really care about you, he wouldn't do this."
"Great! I knew Bai Mo liked me too!"
He Shiwen held her face in her hands, her eyes shining brightly in the dark.
Bai Ying silently moved her body to the edge of the bed, worried that the mentally abnormal He Shiwen would suddenly mutate and eat her in one bite.
