Song Jingcheng looked embarrassed, "It's not that exaggerated."
"Let's go, let's eat."
Chen He walked past Song Jingcheng and was about to leave, but Song Jingcheng leaned against the wall, looking sick.
Seeing that he didn't follow, Shen He smiled playfully and scolded, "Squeamish!"
She subconsciously reached out to hold Song Jingcheng's arm, but Song Jingcheng opened his five fingers and interlocked them with hers. "Now that I can see the light, I can hold your hand, right?"
Chen He: "...Hold! Hold! Hold!"
After dinner, Chen He asked Song Jingcheng to accompany her to the hot springs.
The bath is in a medicinal spring.
Song Jingcheng was bathing. Chen He stood by the door in her bathrobe. Seeing Ma Kai sprinkling medicinal powder into the hot spring pool, she frowned and asked, "Uncle Ma, what are you sprinkling?"
Thinking of something, Shen He asked tentatively: "Isn't it an aphrodisiac?"
Ma Kai quickly explained: "Miss Shen, please don't misunderstand, why would our Mr. Song need this?"
Chen He shrugged and made no comment.
Ma Kai said, "This is the powder that Dr. Su prepared for Mr. Song. He said it can hypnotize the poisonous insect."
"Dr. Su said that this medicine should be soaked every three days. Every time, Mr. Song's body will feel like it's being eaten by hundreds of insects."
Taking a quick glance towards the bathroom, Ma Kai lowered his voice and told Chen He, "I added the medicine without telling Mr. Song. Mr. Song was afraid that you would see him when he had an attack."
"When Mr. Song was ill, he would lock himself in the basement, fearing he would lose his mind and be driven by desire to harm innocent people."
“But I thought, today is Valentine’s Day, and Miss Shen is here again…”
Ma Kai was too embarrassed to say the rest.
Chen He was stunned when he heard this. "You mean, he locks himself up every time he gets sick?"
"yes."
"The last time I stayed at Dongye's villa, he disappeared early in the evening. Was he also ill?"
"...right."
Chen He asked again: "When he is ill, will he become more lustful?"
"Not really." After thinking for a moment, Ma Kai said, "It's that all emotions will be amplified: pain, sadness, hatred, fear, lust..."
"The first time I saw Mr. Song have an attack was four years ago. I don't know what he was thinking about that night, but he kept banging his head against the wall and apologizing to someone over and over again."
"That scene almost scared Lao Ma to death."
...
After taking a shower, Song Jingcheng came to the hot spring pool wrapped in a bath towel.
Chen He sat on the steps of the hot spring pool, a basket beside her filled with roses. She plucked the petals one by one and dropped them into the warm water.
Looking up, she saw Song Jingcheng leaning against the door with his arms folded, looking at her. Shen He said, "Today is Valentine's Day. I asked Ma Kai to go home and be with Mrs. Ma first."
"Tonight, we'll stay on the mountain and return at noon tomorrow."
"...good."
Song Jingcheng entered the hot spring pool and sat next to her.
"Tell me about your life in the countryside with Dr. Su, especially when you were a child." Song Jingcheng was very curious about Chen He's childhood.
"OK."
While picking rose petals, Chen He told Song Jingcheng some interesting stories from her memories.
Before he knew it, half an hour had passed and Chen He had finished two glasses of fruit wine.
Seeing that Song Jingcheng was listening without saying anything, Shen He asked him, "What about you? What was your childhood like?"
Song Jingcheng was speechless.
After a moment, he shook his head and said, "There is no such thing."
Shen He didn't believe it, "You also grew up from a child, how could you not have a childhood?"
"I was born to deal with the Mu family and to shoulder the future of the Song family."
"My childhood, teenage years, and adult life haven't changed much. My past is like a stagnant pool of water."
He couldn't really find a story worth sharing.
"Is that why you want to have a vasectomy? Are you afraid that your child will live the same boring life as you, as an heir?"
Song Jingcheng nodded, "Yes."
After washing his face with warm water, Song Jingcheng asked Chen He, "Don't you feel hot?"
He was very hot, so hot that his eyes were red. When he looked at Chen He, some scenes that were not suitable for children always appeared in his mind.
The more he warned himself not to let his imagination run wild, the clearer and more explicit the images became.
Shaking his head, Song Jingcheng stood up and said, "It's not advisable to soak in the hot spring for too long. Let's go back to the room and rest."
If he continued soaking, he was afraid that he would pin Chen He down and do it here.
Chen He grabbed his arm and said with a smile: "Soak for another two hours."
"Um?"
Song Jingcheng looked back at the water below him, feeling something was wrong. "Why did it take two hours?"
"This is a medicinal spring. It contains the medicinal powder my grandmother prepared. You must soak in it for two hours for it to take effect."
Song Jingcheng's expression changed drastically. "Ma Kai released it?"
Shen He was silent.
Song Jingcheng was furious and dragged Chen He away. He said, "You sleep in the next room tonight. I'll take you home at noon tomorrow. I..."
"Song Jingcheng, are you afraid that I'll see you when you're sick?"
Song Jingcheng's voice stopped abruptly.
Chen He walked around in front of him and raised her face. Her cheeks, flushed by the heat, looked particularly rosy and attractive.
"If you're afraid of me seeing your miserable, ugly appearance when you're sick, then transform all your pain, fear, hatred, and love into a desire to possess me."
Chen He grabbed Song Jingcheng's towel, stood on tiptoe, and kissed his chin.
"Song Jingcheng, tonight, I allow you to possess me."
No words could tempt Song Jingcheng more than this one.
He slowly loosened his tightly clenched fingers and placed them on Shen He's waist, pressing her tightly into his arms...
