At this moment, his eyes seemed extremely deep, like a pool of water in the dark night, so deep that one could not see the bottom. If Qin Ye took one look at them, he would feel as if he would be sucked in.

Dangerous, unfathomable, and unpredictable.

At that moment, all of Qin Ye's thoughts seemed to be seen through, and the panic and tension he felt were unprecedented.

I subconsciously tried to pull my hand away, but he held it even tighter.

He just looked at her without saying anything else, but the feeling of tightness and oppression emanating from his body was so intense that even the air was twisted and squeezed, making her feel suffocated and unable to breathe.

"I..." She felt like something was stuck in her throat, her eyes flickering, "That's medicine for conditioning the body... It's not allowed on the menstrual days every month."

Her voice was soft and unconvincing.

But Tang Mu seemed to believe it: "Oh."

He relaxed his brows and let go of her hand. "I see. You should have told me that you were not feeling well. The manor has a team of doctors on call 24 hours a day. It's better to let them check you out than to take medicine on your own."

Qin Ye lowered his head even lower:

"I see. Thank you..."

"Why are you being so polite to me?" He smiled and rubbed her head. "Did you cook this yourself? It's so sweet. I like it very much. It's as sweet as you."

"Feed me some more."

His eyes changed from deep to smiling, and his smiling eyebrows and eyes were all filled with her appearance.

The more this happened, the more uneasy Qin Ye became.

This feeling is like walking on a path of no return, a path that clearly should not be taken, but once the arrow is shot, there is no turning back. It has been done and there is no room for redemption. Even though I know it is not possible, I have to bite the bullet and do it.

Her fingertips holding the spoon gradually became cold:

"Tang Mu... it's too sweet and greasy. I'll go get you a glass of water."

She stood up and wanted to run out, but Tang Mu grabbed her wrist and took her back:

"I can eat anything you feed me, even if it's poisonous."

The seemingly casual words stirred up a thousand waves in Qin Ye's heart. While speaking, the man held her hand, pinched the spoon, and drank half a bowl in one breath.

His face gradually turned red...

He lowered his eyes, looked at the white fungus and wolfberry floating in the bowl, and suddenly asked in a very calm tone:

"Have you ever been attracted to me?"

Those very light words pierced Qin Ye's heart like a needle, causing her breathing to tighten.

Have you ever been moved?

She doesn't know.

She had never come into contact with the opposite sex and had no experience in this area. She also didn't know what love was, but at this moment her heart was beating like a deer, and she was so panicked.

Staying in the study room for one more second is like torture.

Qin Ye looked at his gradually reddening face, with thin beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He clutched the edge of the bowl guiltily and fled:

"I'll go collect the bowls."

She hurriedly ran out of the study, but she didn't notice that the man's eyes looking at her were getting colder and colder, disappointed, and deeply painful...

Outside the study.

Qin Yu had already changed into sexy pajamas and was waiting outside.

"How is it!" She rushed forward excitedly and grabbed Qin Ye's hand, "Did Mr. Tang drink it? Can I come in?"

Qin Ye pursed his lips and waved away Qin Yu's hand:

"Where's the video?"

"I set a timer. After five minutes, it will be automatically sent to your WeChat. What's going on in the study? Can I go in? Please tell me quickly. I'm so anxious!"
