As Ling Mo and Ji Yan were chatting casually, Qin Beiming suddenly appeared behind her, his face cold, and spoke in a deep voice:
"Ling, may I speak to you in private?"
At first, he only planned to catch a glimpse of her silently outside the F class classroom.
She unexpectedly caught a glimpse of Ji Yan making a move on her, and unable to contain herself any longer, she walked straight into the classroom through the back door.
At this moment, Qin Beiming was filled with remorse.
If I had known that Ji Yan harbored such feelings for Ling Mo, I shouldn't have saved him last night.
Now, things have gotten even worse. I've inexplicably created a rival in love for myself, which is ruining my mood for no reason.
"What's wrong?"
Ling Mo looked up and saw that Qin Beiming had dark circles under his eyes and looked completely dejected. He stood up and asked softly, "Little Qin, what happened?"
"I'm not feeling well, and I have a tightness in my chest."
Qin Beiming pursed his lips, his powerful yet cold aura, like the dark night, softened little by little in Ling Mo's eyes.
How long has this situation been going on?
Fearing that Qin Beiming would have another attack, Ling Mo took his cold hand firmly to his pulse after they walked out of the classroom together.
"you..."
Qin Beiming stared in astonishment at Ling Mo's slender hand resting on his wrist. The cool, watery touch sent a shiver down his spine, instantly dispelling the oppressive atmosphere around him and leaving only ripples in his heart.
He gazed intently at Ling Mo, whose eyelashes trembled slightly, so close to his face, and suddenly felt an urge to kiss her.
"Third Master, why is your pulse beating so fast? Could it be that you've taken some kind of stimulant?"
Ling Mo was focused on taking Qin Beiming's pulse when she looked up and was surprised to see Qin Beiming's eyes gleaming with a wolfish light, as if he wanted to devour her at any moment. She quickly let go of his pulse and subconsciously took a step back.
Qin Beiming thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of Ling Mo holding his wrist. When he saw her let go, he suddenly felt empty and uncomfortable.
He subconsciously tugged at his collar, his prominent, sexy Adam's apple bobbing slightly, even the sounds emanating from his throat became alluring and seductive:
"Why did you take my hand first and then let go for no reason?"
"Third Master, are you mistaken? I was just taking your pulse, I absolutely did not mean to flirt with you." Ling Mo looked up at Qin Beiming, whose eyes were deep, and wanted to laugh, but was too embarrassed to laugh out loud in front of him.
"..."
Upon hearing Ling Mo's explanation, Qin Beiming's passionate enthusiasm seemed to freeze as if by the icy water of an extremely cold place. He stood there dumbfounded, speechless.
He had thought that the boy had finally lost his temper and was going to pursue him.
Unexpectedly, she was just taking his pulse!
"Is your chest still feeling tight?" Ling Mo noticed Qin Beiming's awkwardness and took the initiative to break the silence, asking gently.
"It's even more boring now."
Qin Beiming's eyes were dark and he looked increasingly depressed.
He suddenly raised his hand, lightly unbuttoning the buttons on his collar, and said in a muffled voice, "I don't know why, but my heart suddenly beat two or three times faster."
"Two or three times? Third Master, you don't have a history of heart disease, do you?"
Ling Mo glanced at his slightly open collar, then reached out and pressed his hand against it.
Where...where are your hands going?
Qin Beiming blushed slightly. Although he clearly enjoyed being treated this way by Ling Mo, he acted as if he had been taken advantage of, which instantly made people want to protect him.
Ling Mo looked at Qin Beiming with amusement, and slowly withdrew his hand:
"Third Master, you haven't ever had a medical check-up, have you? I was just checking your heartbeat, what are you being so shy about?"
Qin Beiming originally planned to tell her that he had never been treated like that by a girl before.
But then he thought about it again and realized that he was already in his mid-twenties and had never had any intimate contact with a girl, which seemed a bit embarrassing.
After much deliberation, he finally changed the subject, saying something abruptly:
"I...I have obsessive-compulsive disorder related to cleanliness."
"It really has quite a few problems."
Ling Mo withdrew his hand without making a sound, secretly thinking that he should keep a certain distance from Qin Beiming in the future.
Otherwise, it would be awkward if she accidentally touched his body and made him feel nauseous.
Qin Beiming noticed that Ling Mo subconsciously leaned back, deliberately creating a small distance between them, and then realized that he had said the wrong thing again.
This gave him a terrible headache, so he quickly tried to salvage the situation:
"What I mean is, because of my germaphobia, I've never had physical contact with other girls all these years. So, when your hand touched my body, I was a little taken aback."
"Okay, I understand."
Ling Mo nodded, suddenly finding Qin Beiming's anxious and impulsive manner rather endearing.
Perhaps due to speaking too fast, or perhaps because of a slight change in his facial expression, a tiny bit of chubby cheeks appeared on his well-defined face, making him look adorable and cute.
Qin Beiming grew increasingly nervous under Ling Mo's sharp, almond-shaped eyes. He quickly looked away and subtly changed the subject:
"Just now, Ah Ting called and said that Miss Song misses you very much. Do you have time to spend with Miss Song this Saturday to help her relax?"
"Didn't we agree to meet your grandma this Saturday?"
"Grandma has an appointment and won't be free until Saturday night."
"If that's the case, then let's do it your way."
In recent days, Ling Mo had been trying to video call Song Xingwan, but she hadn't answered, which made Ling Mo feel uneasy. Qin Beiming's offer to spend Saturday with Song Xingwan to cheer her up was exactly what she wanted.
