Jealousy (18)
The tense confrontation in the study ended with Bowen's silence.
When Song Shu thought back on it later, he couldn't help but feel that what he said at the time was so clever and brilliant.
555: [It’s really interesting. How did you know about this? ]
The main storyline of the game focuses more on Alice, and there is no information about Song Shu and Bo Wen.
In the setting, Bo Wen initially raised Song Shu to avenge his parents, but later Song Shu grew more and more like Song Buchen, his father. Bo Wen did hate Song Buchen, but he couldn't help comparing Song Shu to Song Buchen. The more he compared, the more he wanted to control Song Shu.
It was probably to regain the self-esteem that was lost to Song Buchen.
Song Shu's words were like forcibly tearing off the fig leaf between him and Bo Wen, exposing the mud to the sun. Song Shu didn't care about his identity and the plot, so he naturally didn't care. But Bo Wen was a good friend of Song Shu's parents and one of the parties involved in the breakdown of their friendship. He had something to hide and was of course guilty.
So Song Shu's blast directly shocked Bo Wen. After all, Song Shu had always behaved very obediently, and this was the first time that he had accused him so harshly.
The above is 555’s analysis.
Song Shu's answer to this was: "I just said it when the inspiration came to me."
555: […Nothing else?]
"No, I was so upset at the time, and I thought I couldn't let Bowen have an easy time, so I said it."
The sentence seemed to have popped out of his brain out of nowhere, and Song Shu felt much better after saying it.
Later, Bo Wen had no way to fight back, and Song Shu felt even more refreshed because he felt like he had won the argument and had an inexplicable sense of pride.
555 held its forehead with its hand, thinking that Song Shu had remembered something.
…
The farce in the study ended, and Song Shu was taken back to the bedroom by Shui Lan.
Song Shu still felt very uncomfortable lying on the bed. He grabbed Shui Lan's hand and wanted Shui Lan to go back to find Bai Wen and ask Bai Wen to let those people go.
555: [Bowen erased their memories and let them all go.]
"? He's so kind?"
555: [Well, anyway, I let him go.]
So Song Shu quickly let go of Shui Lan's hand and lay down again.
Shui Lian's hand was held for no apparent reason. Her eyelashes trembled, her fingers curled up, and she put her hand, which had been held, behind her back.
Song Shu was unaware of Shui Lian's actions. He just lay there, his long hair and thin clothes soaked with cold sweat, his face abnormally red.
What the hell is this medicine? Even healing magic doesn't work. Song Shu complained, and couldn't help but lift up his collar to fan himself.
The lighting in the bedroom was dim, and her porcelain-white skin looked radiant under the warm light.
Shui Lian moved closer and whispered, "Father, would you like some water?"
The young man was still curled up, perhaps because of the heat, or perhaps because of the pain, his breathing was a little weak.
Like a sick kitten, his voice was weak and quiet: "I want cold water."
It was the first time that Shui Lian saw Song Shu so embarrassed and vulnerable.
This was clearly the joyful scene he had imagined, but now he felt indescribably strange.
Shui Lian is not stupid, he knows that Song Shu doesn't like him.
The dislike here is not disgust, but indifference like a passerby. Shui Lian couldn't understand it at first, and was in pain because of it. But later he understood that Song Shu was like this to many people, and only had eyes for Ellis.
Even though he understood it, he didn't feel much better. He always wanted Song Shu to feel more pain, and it would be best if she could feel the same pain as him.
But now that Song Shu was in pain, he was not very happy. Instead, he felt the pain along with Song Shu.
It's like sprinkling salt on a rotten wound, stimulating, twisted, and a little pleasurable.
Shui Lian thought a lot on the way to pick up Song Shu.
Because he was scheduled to work elsewhere tonight, he was not aware of the farce in the study. It was not until someone notified him to take Song Shu back to the bedroom that he saw Song Shu's embarrassed appearance.
The servant's original words were: The Duke is drunk and asked you to pick him up.
What was he thinking at that time?
——Why would Song Shu let him pick them up? With so many people, was there a reason why he had to go?
Shui Lan was lost in thought.
He still didn't understand that in communication, only people with impure intentions would think so much about it.
For Song Shu, he asked Shui Lan to help him go back, firstly because he knew that Shui Lan had no interest in him, and secondly because Shui Lan and Ellis would be in the same camp in the future. Therefore, in Song Shu's eyes, Shui Lan could be considered a person he could trust.
The most important thing is that because he usually spends a lot of time with Shui Lan, in Bo Wen's eyes, he might have gone to Shui Lan to vent the effects of the drugs.
This barely concealed the fact that he was impotent.
Shui Lan took a glass of water, felt the temperature with her fingers, and handed it to Song Shu's lips.
When the cold rim of the cup touched his lips, Song Shu remembered the glass of water that Bo Wen handed him. He subconsciously looked up at the person holding the cup, and after confirming that it was Shui Lan, he started drinking with confidence.
He sat up, propped up his back with a thick pillow. When he lowered his head to drink water, Shui Lan could see his curled eyelashes and abnormally red lips.
Shui Lian stared at the head beside her hand, watching Song Shu swallowing little by little like a little animal drinking water, and the strange feeling in her heart became stronger and stronger.
——He had never been relied on by Song Shu like this before.
In life, because he needs to take care of his younger brother Qingxiao, Shui Lian spends most of his time taking on the responsibilities of an older brother, which also means that Shui Lian is very good at taking care of people.
But once the target became Song Shu, Shui Lian felt somewhat uneasy and restrained.
After drinking a glass of water, Song Shu's internal heat still didn't subside. He didn't even want to cover himself with the quilt. He just wanted to take a cold bath.
But I have classes tomorrow, how can I go to see Alice if I get sick from soaking in cold water? More importantly, I will feel uncomfortable for a long time if I get sick.
Song Shu moved around uncomfortably, but still felt that lying down was more comfortable, so he asked Shui Lan to help him lie down again.
Because it was hot, Song Shu didn't wear much, and when Shui Lan's hand touched him, he almost leaned over.
Why does Shui Lan feel so cool and comfortable?
Song Shu was shocked.
It's like a walking freezer.
555 rests his chin on his hand: [You used magic to lower the temperature of the room so low, now you are probably the only one who feels hot in this room.]
Song Shu: “…”
That's really what Guomenasai is.
Song Shu glanced at Shui Lan and found that her lips were indeed a little whiter than usual.
Song Shu felt a little guilty. He thought about it and decided that since he felt hot anyway, he might as well turn up the temperature. At least this way, both of them wouldn't feel uncomfortable.
After adjusting the temperature, Song Shu still felt very uncomfortable.
Sexual desire is meant to be released, but he has no way of releasing it due to his impotence, so that bit of passion can only be released in another form.
The only sound in the quiet bedroom was Song Shu's stuffy and hot breathing, and Shui Lan quietly accompanied her.
Just a moment later, there was a knock on the bedroom door, and a familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from outside the door.
"Father, Mr. Berwin asked me to bring you something."
Song Shu felt that the voice sounded familiar. He subconsciously looked at Shui Lan and found that Shui Lan's expression changed instantly. She probably knew who was outside the door.
Shui Lan looked at Qing Xiao as if she were the ball of his eye. Perhaps only Qing Xiao could make him have such a reaction.
To Song Shu, he didn't care whether Shui Lan misunderstood that he was interested in Qing Xiao or not. He just didn't want to accept Bo Wen's kindness, but he couldn't keep the cold war with Bo Wen, so he had to say, "Come in."
Qing Xiao carried a bucket of ice and placed it in the corner of the bedroom. Then she glanced at Song Shu and Shui Lian and said timidly, "Father, Mr. Bo Wen asked me to serve you."
Without waiting for Song Shu's response, Shui Lian smiled, but it was a forced smile. "Qing Xiao, it's good to have me here."
In the past, when Shui Lian said this, Qing Xiao would look at Song Shu cautiously, and then leave after getting Song Shu's nod of permission.
But this time Qing Xiao stood still, staring at his brother seemingly stubbornly.
