"Are you still going to eat? If not, we'll head back."
Ertai looked at the fish meat in his hand, which consisted only of the spine, and asked softly.
"I'm not eating anymore."
Hearing Ertai change the subject, Chen Nian shook his head slightly.
"Then I'll eat it."
Seeing that Chen Nian had stopped eating, Ertai lowered his head and began to eat the fish in his hand.
Looking at the person in front of him, quietly eating fish without the slightest disgust, he lowered his eyes to hide the obsessive emotion that flashed through them, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up.
Ertai, Ertai, I've given you so many chances, but you didn't leave. So don't blame me for being selfish.
Before I leave, you can only belong to me.
You provoked me first, and you refused to leave, repeatedly getting closer to me and forcibly occupying a place in my heart. Now, don't think you can leave easily.
As long as I live, you can only belong to me.
The good things that belong to me, I cannot share even a single bit with anyone else.
Sensing the aura of kindred spirit emanating from the person opposite him, Ertai paused in his fish-eating motion, but quickly resumed his normal actions.
He finished the fish in his hand in a few quick movements, and looked at the people who were still playing in the water and with the small animals with a gentle look in his eyes.
"Want to keep playing? Or should we head back?"
Ertai looked at the sky, which was already getting dark, and asked softly.
"Let's stop playing and go home—"
We've played all afternoon, it's time to go back, otherwise Qing'er and the others will get worried.
"Okay, bring your feet up."
Seeing that the person's feet were still soaking in the water, Ertai spoke up to remind them.
Hearing Ertai's words, Chen Nian picked up her feet, preparing to find something to dry them, only to see Ertai already using his sleeve to wipe them for her.
That action reignited the evil thoughts in Shen Nian's heart.
Her obsessive and selfish desire to make Ertai belong to her seems to stem not only from her selfishness, but also from Ertai's own reasons.
Who could refuse someone who takes care of everyone around them, doesn't find them troublesome or spoiled, is always there for them, and supports them no matter what they do?
Anyway, she couldn't refuse.
She made up her mind; she was going to be selfish just this once.
In both her past and present lives, she has never done anything bad, but in this life, she is about to do it again.
Before she disappeared, Ertai could only belong to her.
She couldn't control what happened to Ertai afterward, but as long as she was alive, Ertai could only belong to her.
"You can only be mine now!"
He murmured softly, almost inaudibly.
Whether Ertai heard it clearly or not, only he himself knows.
"Let's go back."
After drying Chen Nian's feet and putting her shoes and socks back on, Ertai expressed his satisfaction with his service, stood up, and reached out to help Chen Nian up.
"Let's go."
Hearing the sound, she snapped out of her reverie and realized that during the time she had been lost in thought, Ertai had already helped her get ready. He placed his hand on the outstretched hand in front of him and used it to help her get up.
After packing up, the two embarked on their journey home.
...
"You played in the water for so long this afternoon, so you need to soak in hot water before going to bed tonight, okay?"
Seeing Qing'er and Yongxuan already waiting, Ertai's expression became somewhat unnatural. He smiled at the two of them apologetically, and his face flushed slightly when he received their teasing glances.
I feel so bad for taking someone away for an entire afternoon.
Avoiding their teasing glances, he reached out and gently patted Chen Nian's head, offering soft words of advice.
"Mmm~"
Chen Nian obediently nodded.
She was baffled by the teasing glances from the two people in front of her.
"Go quickly, Qing'er is already waiting for you."
Having received the agreement, Ertai didn't try to keep her any longer. He believed that Qing'er would take good care of Chen Nian.
