"elder brother!"
Shen Muqing lay on the bed trying to wake Lan Jin's consciousness. She had called him "brother" for so long, and she didn't believe that Lan Jin was such a pervert.
"Didn't Qingqing already know that today's ceremony was actually our wedding ceremony?"
"I don't know, really, I don't know."
She was still using her last bit of strength to resist Lan Jin, clutching her clothes with both hands. A few strands of his hair fell onto her shoulders; the hair, like its owner, was incredibly domineering.
It seemed to be deliberately slipping inside her clothes, its lightness making Shen Muqing feel unbearably itchy.
"I don't know why you ran away?" Lan Jin bit her shoulder, using a bit of force, and kept grinding the tender flesh between her lips with her teeth.
"Ouch~ That hurts~"
"It's supposed to hurt."
When Lan Jin returned home after excitedly dealing with the villagers, she expected to see Shen Muqing obediently staying inside, but the bamboo house was empty.
He was just too good to Shen Muqing, too easygoing. When Shen Muqing couldn't see him, his heart ached.
Panic gripped his heart; he knew that Shen Muqing had run away on her own.
Lan Jin stood in the empty bamboo house for a while before laughing self-deprecatingly. Since they had escaped, he would catch them and lock them in the house.
Do you know how much my heart aches when I don't see you in the house?
"I was wrong, brother, I was wrong. Please don't do this, I'm scared."
Perhaps due to the effects of the drug, Shen Muqing kept twisting her body, feeling very unfamiliar and empty inside, her brows furrowed.
"Qingqing, your brother will take good care of you."
The red curtains fell, revealing glimpses of figures, accompanied by the rhythmic ringing of melodious bells.
A hand, as white as a lotus root, stretched out from the bed, its whiteness accentuated by the red gauze curtains. Soon, another large hand with distinct knuckles pulled it back into the curtains, completely enveloping it in a possessive manner, leaving no room for refusal.
As darkness slowly turned to light, candles were lit all night, and the two bells rang in unison all night long without stopping.
Do you know what I thought the first thing when I saw you?
Shen Muqing stared blankly at the top of the tent, her eyes red at the corners, and every part of her body was red.
You are mine, and can only be mine.
“I gave you a chance at first; you were the one who grabbed my robe and begged me to save you.”
"If you mess with me, then you'll have no choice but to stay by my side, Qingqing."
Unfortunately, the woman in his arms had fallen asleep and didn't hear his last few words, but it didn't matter. He would let her know that her initial choice was right.
Lan Jin kissed Shen Muqing's head tenderly, her eyes dark and unfathomable, hoping that she would learn her lesson after this experience.
She slept until evening before finally opening her eyes. As soon as she opened them, the aroma of home-cooked food wafted into her nose.
It aroused her hunger, and her stomach rumbled uncontrollably.
"woke up?"
Without a doubt, the voice belonged to Lan Jin. He calmly pulled the gauze curtain aside and wrapped it up, still holding Shen Muqing's clothes in his hand.
Shen Muqing on the bed didn't make a sound. She turned over and turned her back to him. Today, even if she starved to death, she would never eat a single bite of Lan Jin's food.
Are you angry?
Lan Jin reached into the blankets to pick up Shen Muqing, but Shen Muqing's body was tense. Even a person who had been dead for seven days was not as stiff as her, clearly unwilling to be touched.
"Today I made the potato and pork rib stew that my little glutton had been craving."
He paused, his fingers suggestively hooking her thin undergarment, "Since she's not hungry, let's continue what we didn't get to do last night."
The person in bed stirred, quickly got up, and complained, "Lan Jin, you pervert, waaaah~ you bastard."
"Fine, fine, I'm a pervert, I'm a bastard."
Lan Jin pulled Shen Muqing into her arms and wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "Qingqing, don't cry anymore, okay?"
"I apologize. Please get up and eat, okay? You haven't eaten all day."
"Don't you know why I haven't eaten all day?" Shen Muqing punched him in the chest, making her fist go numb, which showed how strong she was.
"Shall I help you get dressed?"
"don't want."
"It's fine if you don't wear it, since you'll have to take it off tonight anyway."
Then Lan Jin gloriously took another punch from Shen Muqing, along with a glare.
What's on your mind?
"you"
"Shameless, disgusting..."
Shen Muqing struggled to put on her clothes, and when she stood up, she almost thought her legs weren't her own; they were shaking more than an eighty-year-old grandmother's.
"I'll carry you." Without saying a word, Lan Jin picked up Shen Muqing and carried her to the table outside.
"It's all your fault, you damned Lan Jin, I hate you."
When Shen Muqing, who hadn't eaten for almost a day and a half, saw the large table of sumptuous food, her eyes lit up, and she completely forgot what she had just said in her heart.
"Feed me."
Shen Muqing commanded Lan Jin in a commanding manner, picking up this dish and that dish for her, without any sense of guilt.
Seeing the girl in front of him eating with such satisfaction, Lan Jin felt relieved. But then, as if remembering something, his eyes sharpened.
The rare moment of relaxation in the air froze. Shen Muqing chewed on a rib and said, "What are you doing now?"
"Qingqing didn't seem to tell me why I ran away?"
Shen Muqing stopped chewing happily and swallowed what was in her mouth.
"My eyes suddenly cleared up, and when I saw you weren't there, I was looking for you. Then I got lost and wandered over there, and then you came to find me."
Her eyes darted up and down, but she didn't look into Lan Jin's eyes.
"Really? Yesterday we found the antidote for the Poison Fog Forest in your clothes. Anyone who didn't know better would have thought you were leaving the village."
"I thought that was a sugar pill, but it turns out it was the antidote."
Shen Muqing lowered her head, and Lan Jin pinched her fair cheek, forcing her to look up and meet his gaze.
"So that's how it is. Qingqing, you should know that those who betray me never have a good ending."
"See that black box over there? It's full of deadly poisons. I prepared it specifically for those who betrayed me."
"If you get bitten, you will die from festering sores within half an hour."
Lan Jin's soft voice reached Shen Muqing's ears; without careful listening, one could not discern the threat in his words.
"Is that so? How could I betray my brother?" Upon hearing this, Shen Muqing hugged Lan Jin, her petite body trembling slightly. That hateful Lan Jin actually dared to threaten her. Once Dandan's system is fixed, she will leave this world immediately and will not stay for another second.
"I love my brother so much, there's no way I would betray him."
Lan Jin's cool hand landed on Shen Muqing's back, like a venomous snake, exuding a dangerous aura.
"Of course I believe Qingqing will not betray her brother, and her brother loves Qingqing too."
