Hearing what I said, the housekeeper didn't dare to offer any further advice. She nodded and said, "Alright. Miss Xiao Fu, please take good care of yourself. However, I still want to tell you that Young Master Ye is not the kind of irresponsible playboy. It would be best if you talked to him about anything."
I forced a smile.
Only after the butler left did I look in the mirror. I must admit, the "game" gave me a beautiful, delicate face.
Her skin was snow-white and soft, her eyelashes were long and thick, and she looked pure, delicate, and exuded a pitiful charm.
"..." I gently scooped up the water and splashed it on my face. I thought of every "male protagonist" I had met so far, and they all showed me that same sense of amazement, even the most taciturn Xu Ya was no exception.
What exactly is wrong? The clear water slowly dripped down, creating shallow ripples in my palm.
I recalled Jiang Mingzhuo's polite yet distant manner towards me, and suddenly felt something subtle and strange.
While everyone else was madly in love with my face, he alone seemed clear-headed and rational, as if completely out of place in this world. Was there something wrong with Jiang Mingzhuo? Or were the other "male leads" the problem?
Of course I know that besides my face, I don't have any outstanding advantages.
I used to be a "leading lady" and I practiced ballet for a while, but I'm nowhere near as professional as Lin Zhi'en. As for art appreciation and playing the piano, which are essential skills for socialites and ladies, I only have a superficial understanding. I can teach children, but if I encounter someone more skilled, I'll immediately be exposed.
My academic performance is average, and my athletic ability is decent. In university, I'm just an average person—neither outstanding nor lagging behind.
Even though the men around me are excessively wicked, arrogant, and conceited, it is undeniable that they are indeed the chosen ones in the secular sense, the elite at the top of the social class.
They would respect and admire Lin Zhi'en, who is in the same social class, but would not pity me, an ordinary person who has nothing to do with anything except my face.
...I splashed water on my face and raised my hand to wipe away the strands of hair stuck to my face.
They don't actually like me; it's just their hormones acting up.
When one person joins the competition, the others, driven by their competitive spirit, refuse to fall behind. They see a weak and vulnerable girl like me as a trophy to flaunt.
Once I'm out of their sight, they'll follow the predetermined plan of the "game" and fall in love with the woman they're truly meant to love, Lin Zhi'en. So the problem isn't with the "game," but with myself; I presumptuously stumbled into the game of these rich young masters.
If I had been more resolute that day and hadn't allowed Yu Xu to go out for dinner with them, none of this would have happened.
It was my fault……
I felt a little dizzy, maybe because of the nightmare I had last night. My body was also weak. Just standing here in the bathroom thinking for a while, my legs started to feel light, and fine beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.
As I stepped out of the bathroom, I bumped into a tall figure.
"What's wrong? You've been inside for so long." Ye Fenglin put his hand on my shoulder. "Are you sick? Xiao Fu?"
He was making such a racket. I couldn't help but raise my hand and press my slender white fingers to his lips.
Our eyes met instantly. I sensed that Ye Fenglin wanted to say something, so I leaned forward, cupped his warm lower lip, and kissed him gently.
I... felt somewhat unsatisfied. I didn't want to admit it, but during those years at the Jiang family, I seemed to have slowly found enjoyment in this matter, and at that very moment I really wanted someone to be with me. I cupped Ye Fenglin's cheeks, and the air was filled with ambiguous and excited emotions.
“You’re sick, I…” Ye Fenglin’s ears turned red without him realizing it, but the arm around my waist betrayed him. His slight resistance made me look up at him, silently showing my vulnerability.
"I want..." I said softly to Ye Fenglin.
A faint breath wafted from between his teeth onto Ye Fenglin's chin. His Adam's apple bobbed up and down. He picked me up with one hand, while his other injured hand seemed to have almost recovered. He adjusted his strength slightly and carried me to the sofa in the center.
Ye Fenglin picked up the fruit plate that was there, which contained freshly washed berries. He picked up a plump berry, but instead of eating it, he gently pinched it. The berry juice flowed down my neck and dripped onto the bear's mouth.
He smiled, a knowing, easy smile playing on his lips.
Ye Fenglin used a strawberry, through my skirt, to trace circles on the tips of my nipples. It was incredibly arousing, and I hugged Ye Fenglin's neck tightly. His eyes were sharp and his aura was filled with desire as he brought the strawberry to my lips.
I found it disgusting, but Ye Fenglin ate it with relish. After he finished, he stroked my chin and finally buried his face in my nipples, eating to his heart's content. My breathing became faster and faster. Ye Fenglin, still wanting more, saw my body sliding down and quickly reached out to hug me tightly.
"Xiao Fu?...You're sick, never mind."
"I'm out of strength." I looked at Ye Fenglin, but my body was too weak to bear it. I could only gently push and rub against him. "Sweetie, okay?"
Ye Fenglin's face turned bright red instantly, his ears seemed to be bleeding, and the temperature of his arms suddenly rose.
I held him in my arms and whispered in his ear. My reason had long since vanished, and I was driven only by instinct. I heard my own voice plead softly, "Please, Yezi, I'm in pain."
Ye Fenglin looked like a tomato about to explode. He shrank his head into the group chat.
...
After all that, my temperature spiked to high. My private doctor surrounded me, and I struggled to hold back my sobs. My head was burning so badly I felt like I was going to faint. Ye Fenglin held me tightly, his gentleness almost unbelievable, patiently comforting me. @Unlimited great stories, all at Literary City
My body was fluctuating between hot and cold, which was very uncomfortable. My eyes were red, and I started to cry. Tears trembled on my eyelashes and slowly slid down my cheeks. After two IV drips, my body temperature seemed to slowly stabilize.
Half asleep, I felt a finger gently wiping away my tears. I slowly opened my eyes, my gaze misty and hazy. The man in front of me slowly lowered his head and pressed his lips to mine. I thought it was Ye Fenglin, so I closed my eyes and opened my arms to hug him tightly.
But this kiss wasn't from Ye Fenglin... My breathing quickened slightly as I tried to see who was in front of me. The other person picked me up, their cool, slender fingers hooking and playing with my eyelashes. Then, their hand moved, sometimes lightly, sometimes heavily, touching my nipples.
"It's still so hot to the touch... Didn't the doctor Yezi found notice?" The man's voice was so distinctive, arrogant and confident, that it startled me awake.
Xie Yong was right next to my bed, while Ye Fenglin was still asleep beside me, completely unaware of Xie Yong's arrival.
“You…” I couldn’t even speak.
Xie Yong curled his lips. "Surprised to see me?"
"Now, in the afternoon." I hesitated, perhaps because of nervousness, I didn't dare to look at Xie Yong's expression.
He lowered his long eyes. "I was just worried about you, so I came to see you."
"You've finished reading." My back stiffened, my throat bobbed, and my voice became incredibly soft. "You can go now."
"Are you kicking me out?" Xie Yong noticed and looked up. There was a strong sense of oppression. My brain was still blank when Ye Fenglin suddenly reached out and hugged my waist tightly. I was so scared that I could only look at Xie Yong for mercy.
Although my plan is that Xie Yong will be captured by Ye Fenglin sooner or later, it won't be now. I am completely defenseless right now; either of them could tear me apart and devour me, leaving not even bones behind.

Ye Fenglin spoke up: "Xiao Fu, are you feeling better?"
Seeing that he was about to wake up, I frantically searched around, and when I touched the hairband I used to tie my hair up that night, I quickly picked it up and gently covered Ye Fenglin's eyes with it, then tied a knot.
"You're awake?" I reached out and shook my hand.
Ye Fenglin was somewhat displeased. "What's wrong? I can't see it."
"No, don't take it off." I looked at Xie Yong, then hesitated before speaking to Ye Fenglin, "Ye Zi, I, I want to play a game, hide-and-seek. You'll be blindfolded and you'll try to catch me."
Ye Fenglin smiled, a lazy, teasing tone playing on his lips: "What will I do if I catch you?"
“I…” I quietly got off the bed, raised my hand to cover Xie Yong’s mouth to make sure he wouldn’t make a sound that Ye Fenglin would hear, and bit my lip: “I’ll make a cake for you.”
My high fever had barely subsided when a light layer of sweat appeared on my body again. I desperately tried to push Xie Yong away, but he deliberately teased me, asking me word by word without making a sound, "And what about me?"
"What?" @Unlimited Great Reads, All at Literary City
Ye Fenglin's hand was touching me; he was getting used to the environment and would be coming over soon. I didn't have much time. For a moment, the only sound in the bedroom was the pounding of my heart, as if it were about to leap out of my chest.
I shoved Xie Yong into the wardrobe and followed him in. With a soft "click," I temporarily shut Ye Fenglin out of the huge wardrobe. I was somewhat intimidated by Xie Yong's domineering presence. My shoulders trembled, and I felt as if I had been pulled out of the water—hot and uncomfortable.
"You..." I didn't know what to say, "What are you doing?"
"What can you do?" Xie Yong took a step forward, his long, slender hand pressing against my wrist and gripping it against the opposite cabinet wall. "What do you think?"
"This is Ye Zi's house." I pushed him shakily, but dared not use force.
Xie Yong looked over with a hint of barely perceptible interest, his eyes instantly darkening slightly. "Alright, then let's be quiet and keep our voices down, so Ye Zi doesn't notice."
I didn't dare to look Xie Yong in the eye. His gaze carried a certain domineering and dangerous meaning. I subconsciously wanted to run away, but Xie Yong grabbed my wrist and tightened his grip. I was pulled into his arms uncontrollably. He held my waist, turned me over, and took the initiative, pinning me against the wide cabinet door.
"Bang!" Outside the cabinet, Ye Fenglin must have accidentally bumped into it while walking. The loud noise made me instantly alert. I pressed my back tightly against the cabinet door, staring at him without daring to move. If I still had some lingering feelings a few hours ago, I was now completely terrified by Xie Yong.
"You're sick, yet you still have to play games with Yezi." Xie Yong lifted my chin with great force, a hint of annoyance and jealousy flashing in his eyes.
"You'd rather play with him than with me?"
