To clarify beforehand, Xu Shi's decision to stay and take care of the unconscious Shen Qin on a whim was not because of that "but".
The real reason is something else entirely.
If I wanted to humiliate you, would I need an opportunity?
Anyway, Miss Shen Qin already looked sickly and weak, and now that she's injured, she's even more pitiful. How can we not take advantage of her? There's no time like the present.
But he didn't expect that the other person would suddenly grab him in such a daze and then rub against his leg little by little.
"Brother, brother, I'm so scared..."
The inhibitor Xie Qingyan received gave her a fever, and she started talking incoherently, "My mom and dad are gone, and you're not here either. I can't find you anywhere. They're all bullying me. It's so dark..."
"Xiaoqin will be good, brother, please don't hide from me anymore, please come out, okay?"
As she spoke, small pearls slid down her cheeks like broken threads, making her look even more aggrieved, pitiful, and helpless.
"..."
Xu remained silent.
This must be a nightmare... It looks like she was remembering the days when "Tianhe" was destroyed, when she and Shenhe were displaced and then got separated and disappeared?
Judging from her ramblings, it was most likely that she was dreaming. However, whatever her dream was, this was the first time he had ever seen such an expression on Miss Shen Qin's face.
Interestingly, perhaps because of their antagonistic relationship, Xu Shi rarely saw her smile from the first time he met her. Most of the time, she had a poker face, or she was furious after being humiliated by him.
After all, they had been openly and covertly at odds from the very beginning. Even if she had these expressions, it would be difficult for her to show them to herself... Moreover, she was the leader of the "Forsaken," so how could she possibly show such a side of herself?
This kind of behavior is probably only seen in front of her good brother Shen He, and it's obvious that she's currently in a state of delirium and is once again mistaking herself for Shen He—he's carrying some of Shen He's lingering aura.
So you're like Gu Yi, born in the Year of the Dog, right? Miss Black Rabbit likes to bite people for no reason, and you're even more amazing, you can recognize people by their scent...
Thinking of this, Xu Shi chuckled and gently placed his hand on her forehead, responding softly.
"Sleep peacefully, Xiaoqin, your brother is always here for you."
"Uh-huh……"
Hearing him say that, Shen Qin's expression finally relaxed a little, but she still clung to him and wouldn't let go, "Brother, don't go, stay with Xiao Qin, okay..."
Your brother has already washed it off! You chose this idol!
Xu Shi muttered a complaint under his breath, but he rarely went along with her wishes, so he maintained that position and gave her something to lean on.
This was entirely out of kindness; everyone knows that Chairman Xu is a very gentle person.
Besides.
Xu Shi knew very well that this was probably the last time these memories would appear in her mind.
There should always be some kind of end-of-life care.
Shen Qin had already fallen asleep, her soft breathing rising and falling peacefully.
...
The next morning.
The effects of the "Prism" drug are self-evident, and coupled with Shen Qin's own self-healing abilities, once the influence of Luo Yu's abilities fades, her recovery speed is very fast.
Anyway, when she woke up, she was in good health and even felt unusually refreshed, which meant she had rested well.
What happened last night... Shen Qin thought back for a moment and remembered that she had fought with Luo Yu and seemed to have been hit by his hidden force?
My memory of the rest is a bit hazy; I wonder if I fainted or what? But I did have a rather unusual and pleasant dream…
This pillow is very comfortable to use; just lying on it makes me feel safe and secure... Hmm?
She reached out and touched it in a daze, and suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"ah--"
Upon opening her eyes and seeing the situation, she froze for a few seconds, then immediately screamed and jumped away.
"Xu Shi! What did you do to me?!"
Miss Shen Qin instinctively hugged the blanket and huddled in the corner of the bed, feeling ashamed and indignant, with a hint of fear and disbelief.
How did I end up resting my head on his lap? It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say I was practically nestled in his arms...
More importantly, she was completely naked, with her clothes casually tossed aside, creating a somewhat messy appearance.
“...You’re so noisy, Miss Chen Qin.”
Her commotion woke Xu Shi up—or rather, he hadn't slept at all, he was just resting with his eyes closed. For an "ascended person," not sleeping for a day is nothing.
"But it seems you're recovering quite well?"
Seeing the other person's unprecedentedly energetic appearance, he smiled with interest.
"Restore you!"
Shen Qin gritted her teeth and angrily retorted, "What exactly did you do to me?! You shameless scoundrel!"
Her first instinct was that this bastard must have taken the opportunity to do something bad to her, and the surrounding situation seemed to confirm it...
"Calm down, and also, put the blanket down."
Xu Shi twitched the corner of his mouth, "You're acting like I haven't seen it before... Of course, I don't think I've complimented you before, Miss Shen Qin's skin is very good."
It's true. Although she looks a little sickly, overall, Shen Qin only lacks the rosy complexion that a normal person should have. Instead, it makes her body look as white and smooth as mutton fat, truly a rare beauty in the world.
Shen Qin wouldn't let it go. She didn't deny that she had been naked in front of Xu Shi countless times, but wasn't it all because he forced her? It wasn't like she wanted to strip naked for him to see.
