Volume 1 Chapter 92 I'll keep you by my side as a canary
Du Ruo had never experienced such a feeling before. Although her breathing was not taken away by anyone, her face turned red from holding it in. She could only bite her lips secretly, fearing that the faint gasp would reveal her nervousness.
Xu Jingmo's lips rested on her tattoo, no, scar.
He pressed gently against her, stroking her left and right, his warm breath spraying on her skin, making her feel as if an electric current was rushing from her coccyx to her brain, and a tingling sensation instantly spread throughout her body.
He refused to leave for a long time. Du Ruo couldn't stand the heartbeat that was about to explode, so she called his name softly.
"Xu Jingmo..."
The other party ignored her, and when she felt the wet touch, she was stunned again, and her fingers involuntarily grabbed the sofa pillow in front of her.
An image suddenly emerged in my mind, like a wolf fighting alone on the grassland, secretly hiding its wounds for fear of exposing its vulnerability, but suddenly a companion appeared, licked its wounds gently, and fought side by side with it.
Before she could react, Xu Jingmo suddenly came over, gently supported the side of her cheek, and leaned over to kiss her.
His kiss was fierce, and Du Ruo found it difficult to cooperate in the current position.
It seemed that he had noticed this as well. He stood up, held her gently in his arms, sat on the sofa, and leaned against her again, kissing her even more passionately.
This was a common posture the two of them used when they were "practicing". Du Ruo naturally wrapped her arms around his neck and responded to his rhythm.
What was different from before was that Xu Jingmo's hand no longer stayed on her waist, but gently stroked the scar on her left leg.
The heartbeat rhythm that Du Ruo thought she had gotten used to became chaotic again.
After a long time, Xu Jingmo buried his head in her shoulder, rubbed it gently, held her hand tightly, guided it to his heart, and said hoarsely: "Fairy, it hurts here, help me heal it, okay?"
Du Ruo's breathing was still not steady. Under her palms was his warm chest and strong heartbeat. She asked softly, "How do I cure it?"
Xu Jingmo held her tightly, smelling the familiar scent on her body, as if he was afraid that she would suddenly disappear if he let go, and answered helplessly: "I don't know."
Pity, pain, guilt, fear... all these complex emotions overwhelmed him like a tide, and in the end, only a deep feeling of powerlessness remained.
Scars cannot be erased, they can only be covered up.
Just as he could not bear the responsibilities she bore, he could not share her pain.
It turns out that this is what is called powerlessness.
He said hoarsely, "I only know that everyone comes into this world crying. No one is born strong, and you are no exception."
"Du Ruo... life doesn't need to be rushed all the time..."
"You can fall back when you are tired. Your family and I don't understand the mysteries of the universe and can't help you at all. But we are all behind you. As long as you turn around, we will be your stop in all directions."
His voice was hoarse. Du Ruo had never seen him so vulnerable before. She was stunned and gently stroked his back, soothing him softly: "I know, you have always supported me in doing what I want to do."
"You know shit." Xu Jingmo couldn't help but retort.
She is used to making decisions alone, living alone, and not relying on anyone.
He was so scared that he would never see her again.
He was afraid that one day, he would suddenly receive the news that she had disappeared. What would he do?
Du Ruo asked with a smile: "Are you so afraid of losing me?"
"Um"
In order to ease his mood, Du Ruo teased him, "You love me a little bit."
Xu Jingmo bit her neck angrily, "I've said it many times, not just a little, but a lot, endlessly."
He deliberately used more force, causing her to hiss in pain, but he did not let her go.
Du Ruo scolded bitterly, "Xu Xiaogou."
Xu Jingmo: "Du Ruo, I only have one request, you must be safe. If I find out that you keep hiding things from me, I will go to the ends of the earth to catch you and punish you."
Du Ruo deliberately snorted: "Go ahead, how are you going to deal with me?"
Xu Jingmo patted her butt lightly and threatened her half-jokingly and half-seriously: "I'll break your wings and keep you by my side like a canary. I'll feel at ease only when I can see it myself."
Du Ruo couldn't help but glare at him with a red face, and scolded: "You've read too much domineering literature, you pervert, it's illegal."
Xu Jingmo suddenly couldn't hold back his laughter. She was always able to refute him rationally and magically calm his impulsive emotions.
He touched her forehead helplessly, his nose touching hers, and whispered, "What can I do with you..."
Du Ruo said, "Don't worry, I promise I won't hide anything from you anymore."
Xu Jingmo: "What if it's hidden?"
Du Ruo: "Work matters will be kept strictly confidential. But regarding my personal matters, all matters, good or bad, big or small, I will not hide them from you. If I hide them from you, you will capture me and make me your crown princess."
Xu Jingmo said seriously: "Keep your word."
Du Ruo took the initiative to kiss his lips and promised, "Stamp it. Keep your word."
Xu Jingmo couldn't help but open her lips and teeth again, as if only this could calm his inner uneasiness.
As his breaths intertwined, he whispered repeatedly, "Du Ruo, don't leave me."
*
Du Ruo only had minor bruises and applied ointment before going to bed.
The next day, only the leg muscles turned bluish purple, but it did not affect daily activities.
On the last day of the Qingming Festival, the two of them stayed at home all day.
Study, play games, flirt with each other, and enjoy the sweet time of being in love.
On Tuesday morning, Xu Jingmo went to school for class, and Du Ruo planned to remove her manicure because her nails had grown too long and she was a little uncomfortable with it.
Wen Fei and Ji Yunbai went abroad for vacation and haven't returned yet.
Du Ruo went to Melo alone.
When we arrived at the beauty salon, Xu Daiyue was also in the store.
Du Ruo nodded politely to her.
Xu Daiyue was a little surprised to see her and asked, "Did you come here by yourself?"
Du Ruo: "Well, I'll remove my nail polish."
Xu Daiyue called a manicurist, "Lili, come and remove her nails, and then do a hand care."
Du Ruo: "Don't bother."
Xu Daiyue: "It's just a hand treatment, you don't have to reject me anymore, right?"
"..."Du Ruo: "Okay, let's do as you arrange."
Xu Daiyue originally came to inspect the store, but she unexpectedly met Du Ruo, so she changed her mind and sat beside her to help her with the hand care.
Asked: "Can I treat you to lunch at noon? Or do I need to get a number and wait in line?"
Du Ruo: "Xu Jingmo will be back at noon."
Xu Daiyue: "Then let's go together. I'll talk to him now."
Du Ruo: “Okay.”
Du Ruo wore a new Chinese style stand-up collar suit today, which made her look gentle and charming.
Xu Daiyue couldn't help but admire it for a few more seconds. This kind of picky clothes is really not something that ordinary people can handle. She is really beautiful and has an extraordinary temperament.
He inadvertently caught a glimpse of the Buddhist beads on her wrist and asked in surprise, "Are those Buddhist beads you're wearing?"
Du Ruo: “Yeah, that’s right.”
Xu Daiyue: "My grandfather also has a string of precious Buddhist beads. I thought only people of his age would like this kind of thing."
Shouldn't the little girl prefer diamond jewelry?
But when Du Ruo wore it, it didn't look out of place at all.
Du Ruo: "This is what your grandfather gave me. Xu Jingmo changed the size of it and said it would keep me safe. He insisted that I wear it when I go out."
Xu Daiyue: “…”
Last year, on his grandfather’s birthday, a friend gave him a pair of small-leaf red sandalwood Buddhist beads. It was said that a master had blessed them, but he actually gave them to her?! Have they seen them? ? ?
