Chu Yingying was not surprised by Lin Xiao's words, but she was still stunned.
She bit her lip, silently watching Lin Xiao, the smile on her face gradually fading.
Chu Yingying gave a coquettish snort and said aggrievedly, "I've changed for the better, and I haven't indulged myself in a long time... I exercise every day, and my self-control has improved. Why are you still so disgusted with me?"
As she spoke, her eyes reddened, and she genuinely felt wronged.
Every quiet night, whenever she was overcome by desire, she struggled to control herself, changed into her running clothes, and ran lap after lap on the rubber track in her neighborhood, sweating profusely until she was completely exhausted.
She found that her sleep improved, her skin improved, and her self-esteem gradually improved.
Walking in the hospital, regardless of gender, one can't help but glance at her twice.
An unmarried male doctor pursued her passionately, sending her flowers and food every day, but she remained unmoved.
The only person she cared about was Lin Xiao.
Last week, in particular, Chu Yingying was attacked by Wu Chi, and Lin Xiao rushed out to save her at the critical moment, which suddenly made her attachment to Lin Xiao reach a new level.
Lin Xiao's tall, upright, and steady image, like a mountain, was deeply imprinted in her heart.
This made her see other men in the world as dwarfs, unable to stir even the slightest ripple in her heart.
If her feelings for Lin Xiao before were more of a physical attraction, now she is completely devoted to him. She has truly fallen in love with him.
For him, she was willing to do many things she would never have considered doing before.
For example, showing weakness.
Lin Xiao chuckled helplessly, took out a fragrant tissue, and gently wiped the corner of her eye. "No one dislikes you, senior. Don't wrong me, senior."
"Besides, at our age, we're full of youthful vigor, so it's normal to be impulsive."
"As long as you release your stress properly, don't become overly obsessed with it, and it doesn't affect your physical and mental state, it's not a big deal."
Chu Yingying pursed her lips tightly, revealing a pair of dimples on her fair cheeks. She stretched out her arms and said sweetly, "I want a hug."
Lin Xiao chuckled and opened his arms to hug the person.
The two embraced quietly for a moment.
"Junior, do you like me? I will do my best to treat you well and love you with all my heart," Chu Yingying said in a hoarse voice.
Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly, remaining unmoved.
Chu Yingying sighed and snuggled closer to Lin Xiao.
She looked up at Lin Xiao's Adam's apple, raised her hand, and gently stroked it a few times.
Lin Xiao chuckled, "Senior, don't touch me like that."
Chu Yingying gave a soft snort, "I'll touch you then."
Helpless, Lin Xiao released his grip on her, letting Chu Yingying's little hands do as they pleased.
He cultivated the Stone Technique.
No matter how she tried to provoke him, he remained unmoved and showed no reaction whatsoever.
Chu Yingying said dejectedly, "Forget it, I won't tease you anymore. Junior, you're really heartless, not giving me any reaction at all."
Lin Xiao sighed, "Senior, you've really hit me where it hurts. How am I supposed to react? I'll sleep with you, but I won't take responsibility. Can you accept that?"
Chu Yingying was taken aback.
This is a lot of information; she needs time to process it.
Does he mean that he's not uninterested in her, but rather that he doesn't want to take responsibility?
No, no, he was just threatening her; he wouldn't do that.
A person who would actually do that wouldn't say such a thing, nor would they uphold their bottom line like he does.
If he does something to her, it means he will definitely take responsibility for her.
What an absolutely wonderful man!
In any case, given her experience and knowledge, the only man who has been able to resist her beauty so far is Lin Xiao.
Having figured all this out, Chu Yingying's heart fluttered, and she smiled, "Junior, you're so innocent. I like it. Coincidentally, I'm an innocent person too. We're a match made in heaven."
Lin Xiao's eyes flickered.
Damn it.
He's a professional simp, yet he's actually a pure-hearted man. No wonder he's put himself in such a passive position.
Sure enough, once conditions improved, people began to become greedy.
The typical manifestation is wanting both.
When he first entered the industry, he actually set his bottom line very low.
He prepared for the worst.
However, his clients really only used him as a stand-in for Feng Qi, at most humiliating him, but did nothing inappropriate. Gradually, he relaxed.
Until Ji Ran started to go mad.
Then one by one, they all started to get out of control.
They all felt a need to be close to him.
But as the amount in his bank account grew rapidly, he became increasingly aware that he was still greedily trying to maintain his original intentions.
At the very least, he couldn't have been forced into it.
He had to do it willingly.
It's not a transaction.
Otherwise, he would look down on himself.
"Senior, stop joking. Let's go see a movie, it's so boring sitting here like this," Lin Xiao said, changing the subject.
He found the remote control, turned on the LCD TV, and spent a few minutes with Chu Yingying choosing a film, ultimately selecting a realistic drama.
Chu Yingying sat cross-legged next to Lin Xiao, her head resting on his shoulder, her arms wrapped around his waist.
Lin Xiao put his arm around her thin shoulders and back.
After watching for more than ten minutes, Chu Yingying yawned, "This movie isn't good, it's a bit boring."
"I think it's alright."
"Let's try something else. Something easier."
"If I change it, I won't be able to finish watching it."
Chu Yingying thought for a moment, "Alright then. Let's watch this one. However, the script is really not good, and the emotions between the characters are too exaggerated and fake."
Lin Xiao hummed in agreement. "It really is a bad movie. I'll give it three stars later."
"It's not good, why did you insist on watching it to the end? Don't you think it's a waste of your time?"
"I hope that the last thing I do with my senior is to see it through to the end," Lin Xiao said in a low voice.
Chu Yingying's heart skipped a beat. She stopped talking, perked up, and started reading intently.
As the light and shadow shifted, a story that started strong but ended weakly finally came to a close.
But because of the significance Lin Xiao mentioned, Chu Yingying stopped criticizing the film's shortcomings.
Life is inherently boring; it all depends on who you're with. When you're with someone you like, nothing else matters.
After the movie, Lin Xiao had to leave.
But Chu Yingying grabbed his hand and said coquettishly, "Junior, don't go. Have dinner before you leave. I'll ask Aunt Lin to come back and cook."
Lin Xiao withdrew his hand and said calmly, "No need, senior. I have something to do, so I'll head back to school first. Goodbye."
Chu Yingying felt disappointed. She got up and saw Lin Xiao to the door.
"Junior, can we still meet like friends in the future?"
Lin Xiao raised an eyebrow slightly and gave a soft "hmm," "If I have time."
Chu Yingying was not pleased by those words; she only felt that Lin Xiao was erecting an invisible barrier, pushing her away.
She had a hunch that once they parted ways, Lin Xiao might be a completely different person the next time they met.
