Chapter 38 Li Xin chuckled wickedly on the screen: "Young Master has been in high spirits lately..."
Su Jinmu remained calm, while Xu Yu's indifferent face revealed a hint of disappointment.
She glanced up, wanting to ask Su Jinmu's blood type, but then stopped herself.
Regardless, now that the other party has confirmed that he is the biological son of the Su family, it would be a bit much for her to keep pursuing the matter.
Xu Yu quickly composed herself, adjusted her expression, and nodded gently.
"Okay, I understand."
Su Jinmu calmly turned halfway to the side, tidying up the complicated admission list on the table. Her hands moved steadily and without stopping, and her expression showed no fluctuation.
Xu Yu wasn't sure if it was him or not; she was just guessing and asking the question.
As for the claim that he looks like Professor Su Han, neither he nor Professor Su think so.
And even if there are similarities, what does that prove?
The world is so big, and there are so many people who look alike.
One more or one less makes no difference.
The other party was only guessing, while he...
Su Jinmu kept tidying up the documents, her eyes lowered calmly, but her heart was pounding heavily in her chest.
As the documents were turned over, the slender fingertips turned slightly white.
When Xu Yu returned to her residence, Xu Sibai immediately came to greet her, with a hint of surprise and anticipation.
"Yuyu, how are you?"
Xu Yu sat in the chair, leaned back, and slowly shook her head, her voice very low, "He said he is the biological son of the Su family."
Xu Yu sighed slightly, but Xu Sibai didn't show much emotion. Over the years, they had searched for all sorts of people, both similar and dissimilar, and this was not the first time they had encountered such a situation.
Xu Yu was young before, and only in the last two years has she been running around with Xu Sibai and Su Han to find people. Xu Sibai comforted her gently, "Yu Yu, it's okay, take a rest first."
"Some children who are not biologically related may not even know that they are not their biological children."
Xu Sibai poured her a glass of water and placed it beside her. "We can't let go of those we suspect so easily, but we can't be too reckless either."
Xu Yu nodded, her mind still replaying the scene of her asking Su Jinmu a question. She lowered her eyes, deep in thought.
I don't know why.
Although the other person answered calmly, she still felt something was off.
What would a typical person's reaction be if they were suddenly asked if they were their family's biological child?
...Perhaps they found it...bizarre? Funny?
The family who thinks the child is missing is so distraught from searching for him that they seem to be losing their minds.
They might laugh, or they might reassure and comfort them, telling them not to be impatient.
But Su Jinmu...
It was unusually calm.
He simply answered no, without smiling or saying anything.
Quietly.
Like being isolated from the world.
"Yuyu, rest first, don't think about it anymore, or you'll wear yourself out."
Xu Sibai said softly, "Your mother will be back soon. The kitchen received a batch of fresh seafood today. I'm going to set up the grill to make some barbecue. You can eat something to tide you over first, and I'll grill some more for your mother when she gets back."
Xu Yu nodded, "Thank you, Dad."
Xu Sibai went out to set up a barbecue, lit a fire in the yard, sprinkled on the seasonings, and the fresh and fragrant aroma immediately wafted out.
Its domineering aroma assaulted the senses of passersby.
Jiang Jing had just returned from outside and was about to rush into his room for an iced drink when he was drawn in by the aroma as he passed by the yard, and his eyes lit up immediately.
I moved a small chair and sat by the door. In front of me was the sizzling aroma of seafood barbecue in the yard, and behind me was the cool shade inside the house.
Then I took out a few bottles of iced drinks from the refrigerator, sat down on a chair, and waited to eat.
"It smells so good." Jiang Jing took a deep breath. "Sister Yuyu, your dad's seafood barbecue is absolutely amazing. You should consider changing careers sometime. I can't stand seeing such a talented person being wasted."
Xu Yu: "..."
Seafood cooks quickly, so Xu Sibai quickly set out a plate for the two of them. Xu Yu paused her thoughts for a moment, picked up a barbecue grill, and put it in her mouth.
Jiang Jing swallowed a scallop in one gulp, sucking in air as it was scalded while exclaiming, "Delicious! I saw Brother Mu really enjoy eating them yesterday too."
Jiang Jing turned to Xu Yu and asked, "Cousin, can I send some more over to Brother Mu later?"
Xu Yu nodded, looking at Jiang Jing, and suddenly remembered that he had stayed at the Su family's house for quite a while. She raised an eyebrow and asked, "Yesterday I saw him eat quite a lot. Does Su Jinmu like barbecue?"
Jiang Jing: "???"
Jiang Jing clicked his tongue, "Who doesn't like barbecue?"
"Does he often eat barbecue?"
Jiang Jing paused, thought for a moment, and said, "I didn't eat it before, but I've started eating it recently."
Xu Yu: "???"
A hint of doubt appeared on Xu Yu's indifferent face. "You just said that everyone likes barbecue, so why didn't he eat it before?"
Losing weight? Preferring a lighter diet?
It would have been better if we hadn't brought this up, because Jiang Jing gets angry as soon as we do.
Jiang Jing smirked, glanced around to make sure no one was watching, and said indignantly, "Brother Mu's parents, that couple from the Su family, they seem to have lost their minds, they're always so harsh on Brother Mu."
Xu Yu: "???"
Xu Yu frowned, "...Harsh?"
"Yes! They are harsh!"
Jiang Jing took a big bite of barbecue, spoke angrily, and repeated to Xu Yu what he had said to Li Xin before.
"They make Mu-ge take some kind of elite class all the time, don't give him food, boil grass leaves every day, and whip his hand if he loses focus in class. They also make Mu-ge go out to build connections and socialize all the time."
"They have so many lousy classes. Once, I was at the Su family's house with Brother Mu, taking one of his traditional Chinese painting classes. Sister Yu, do you know how late it went?!"
Jiang Jing stuffed a mouthful of barbecue into his mouth, chewed it forcefully, and said with a contorted expression, "Working until five in the morning!"
Xu Yu frowned.
Jiang Jing continued, "That Chinese painting teacher, Ms. Jiang, is quite old. The Su couple didn't consider Brother Mu, nor did they care whether the teacher could handle it. I'm truly impressed!"
Xu Yu put down the food in her hand, frowned, and paused at the series of absurd things Jiang Jing said.
"When did it start?"
“It’s been many years since Brother Mu was a child.”
Jiang Jing pouted, "Sister Yuyu, you don't pay much attention to these rumors in the industry. Actually, Brother Mu is quite famous."
Jiang Jing clicked his tongue, "I just can't understand it. What makes Brother Mu so different from his older brother? Why is he treated so differently? His older brother joined the company early on and has both money and freedom."
He scoffed and muttered under his breath, "No taste."
Xu Yu: "..."
Xu Yu received too much information at once, and her mind was full of questions. Her face became increasingly cold and aloof.
She knew the Su family had an older son, but she had rarely seen him before. He didn't come to the barbecue on the beach last night, and Su's parents were quite disappointed when they mentioned it, saying he had some urgent company business to attend to.
After saying that, he also praised how outstanding his eldest son was.
...I never expected there to be such inside information.
Xu Yu gathered her thoughts and looked at Jiang Jing, who was eating voraciously because he was angry, leaving a pile of seafood shells in front of him.
"You just said that he didn't eat barbecue before, but he's been eating it recently. What's going on?"
A deep voice came from behind.
Xu Yu and Jiang Jing looked up and saw that Xu Sibai had come over at some point and was standing behind them listening, his brows furrowed and a hint of displeasure showing on his gentle and refined face.
How could you treat such a good child like this? It's too much.
Jiang Jing thought for a moment, then frowned a little. "I'm not really sure about the specifics. It was close to the end of the semester, and I wasn't around during the day."
"It seems... Brother Mu had some kind of conflict with them?"
Jiang Jing recalled carefully, "Brother Mu was quite calm and composed. His father was initially angry and yelling, but later he changed his attitude for some reason and hasn't been paying much attention to it lately."
He frowned. "Maybe something upset Brother Mu. I think they came here on vacation to try and mend their relationship."
Jiang Jing muttered with a pout, "Born of the same parents, yet so different."
Xu Yu pursed her lips slightly, her long eyelashes drooping, deep in thought, while Xu Sibai also had a somber face.
.
Su Jinmu lay in her room, her mind a jumble of thoughts, a chaotic jumble of ideas surging up inside her.
He didn't remember much about his childhood, and only later did he overhear them talking about it and learn that he wasn't their biological son.
I had no idea about this before.
Su Jinmu pulled the blanket over her head and turned over in frustration.
Xu Yu asked him if he was a biological son of the Su family, but what difference would it make if he wasn't?
Having lived in the Su family for so many years, he no longer wanted to integrate into a new relationship.
Whether it's Li Xin or someone whose biological parents are uncertain.
He didn't want to go any closer.
Su Jinmu pursed her lips, her face was pale, her mood was bad, and her head was slightly aching.
Many emotions gradually transform into desires.
Li Xin entered the room and looked at the young master Su curled up on the bed.
Last night on the beach, Su Jinmu said she would come back to help him, but after staying up all night, she was too tired and fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed.
"Young Master."
Li Xin squatted down by the bed, his cool fingertips gently rubbing against the young master Su, who was curled up in the quilt.
Su Jinmu was annoyed, but when she saw him, she got out of bed.
He looked up, his beautiful, shimmering eyes slightly lowered, appearing somewhat dim.
She raised her hand and pulled the boy onto the bed.
Li Xin: "...?"
Li Xin lay down on the bed following his movements, and Su Jinmu rolled over and pressed down on him. Her long eyelashes fluttered, and she moved close to the corner of the boy's lips, brushing against them directly with delicate, peck-like kisses.
Li Xin: "...??"
Li Xin paused, his eyes darkening slightly, and he could tell at a glance that the young master was in a bad mood. "Young Master?"
How did things turn out like this after going out with Xuyu?
Su Jinmu's breathing quickened, his chaotic emotions clouding his judgment, and his body gradually heated up, making him even more confused.
She gently bit the boy's lips, feeling their slight coolness. As she drew closer, the temperature gradually rose.
"Let's do it."
He sat down, raised his hand to press Li Xin's buttons, and was about to unbutton them with his fingertips when a hand pressed down on him, firmly restraining his movements.
"Young Master."
Li Xin called out to him, her voice soft, "What's wrong?"
Su Jinmu pursed her lips, her breath hot, and looked down at him, "Nothing much, just wanted to go to bed."
"But I don't want to do it."
Li Xin said slowly.
Su Jinmu paused, his lips tightening. Although he and Li Xin had touched and cuddled a lot, they had probably only done it twice.
My impression of it wasn't very good either.
Su Jinmu bit her lip, then nodded casually after a moment. Her clear eyes remained calm and serene, as always.
She lifted her long legs, got off the boy, lowered her eyes, grabbed her clothes, and walked out.
Li Xin's eyes were filled with an inscrutable, unfathomable darkness, a fleeting shadow passing through them.
"Young Master."
Su Jinmu gave a faint "hmm," picked up his coat, and took a step. Suddenly, his wrist was tightened, and a force so strong it was almost savage pulled him off balance, causing him to fall heavily back onto the bed.
"Hmm..."
Su Jinmu frowned slightly, let out a muffled groan, her waist tensed up, and her breathing became increasingly scattered.
The boy pressed down on him relentlessly, trapping him, his voice low and slow, "Young Master, where do you think you're going?"
Su Jinmu had a headache and his thoughts were in turmoil. His addiction was starting to kick in, and the boy was right next to him, slowly rubbing his face with his palm.
Su Jinmu's frustration intensified. "A nightclub, find someone willing to sleep with me."
To alleviate his addiction.
"Ugh...!"
Suddenly, her lips stung with pain as the boy bit down hard on her. Su Jinmu felt a sharp pain in her nerves for a moment, her eyelashes trembled, and she shivered involuntarily.
Li Xin stared at him intently, then licked him soothingly after biting him. "Young Master, tell me why you're unhappy, and maybe I'll decide to do it."
“…” Su Jinmu looked away. “There’s nothing to say.”
I'm just a little annoyed.
He was bound by chaotic intimate relationships.
He resisted, felt agitated, and even feared.
He just wanted to be alone and didn't want to be involved in too many things.
He'd had enough after more than a decade.
Su Jinmu took a deep breath, her fingertips taut and slightly white, her temples throbbing with pain, and her desire rising.
He tried to push Li Xin away and sit up, but the boy on top of him was heavy and immobile, trapping him.
Su Jinmu became even more agitated, "If you're going to do it, then leave; if you're not going to do it, then get out of here."
"Young Master."
Li Xin gently brushed against his lips, his fingers threading through his hair, his high nose bridge pressed against his cheek, his gaze deep and unfathomable, and said slowly and deliberately, "We can make love, but it can't be just for the sake of release."
"Hmm..."
Su Jinmu tried to push him away but couldn't. She tried to lift herself up a little but was pushed back down. Her chest heaved and sweat beaded on her forehead. Desire kept burning away her reason.
I gradually started to feel a little uncomfortable.
Li Xin gazed at him, kissed the corner of his mouth, his chin, down to the nape of his neck, and little by little downwards.
With her body no longer restrained, Su Jinmu propped herself up and sat up, but the boy was still very close, his fingertips brushing against her waist.
"Young Master is in pain."
Li Xin, her lips a deep red, pressed down on him. "I won't do it today, but I can help you with [something]."
.
With her desire relieved, Su Jinmu's movement to get up and leave was stopped. Her temples throbbed incessantly, her breathing became rapid, and she looked at Li Xin.
The boy's lips were even redder. Looking up, his dark pupils paired with his scarlet lips made him look like a wild beast, savage and unruly.
He pulled Su Jinmu into his arms, trapping her tightly.
Su Jinmu's breathing was disordered. Her head was pressed against the boy's shoulder, and her waist and back were constricted, making it impossible for her to move. She instinctively struggled a couple of times, but the boy rolled over and covered her again.
Su Jinmu was trapped in the crook of his neck, panting. After a long while, she gradually lost her strength, and her eyelids drooped slightly.
"Young Master, have you calmed down yet?"
Li Xin pinched his earlobe.
"...Ugh..."
Su Jinmu's breathing became heavy, her strength waned, and her consciousness gradually sank.
My eyes closed slowly, and I fell asleep.
A dark glint flashed in Li Xin's eyes as he stared at the young master's tired, drooping black eyelashes, rubbing the other's earlobe and fiddling with it absentmindedly, his expression full of meaning.
Why did going out make me feel so bad?
※. I'm having an addiction.
Li Xin pulled the blanket over him, held him tightly in his arms, reached out to grab his phone, and sent a message through Su Jinmu's neck.
After a period of silence, the other side finally found the information and sent it.
Su Jinmu was previously with Xu Yu.
I went to the orphanage.
The initial visit was just a routine tour, and everything was quite ordinary. Later, Su Jinmu, Xu Yu, and a manager entered the archives. There were too few people, so they couldn't find out exactly what had happened in the archives.
...an orphanage?
Li Xin narrowed his eyes.
The young master was adopted, but the specifics of the adoption are unclear.
Is your bad mood because seeing the orphanage reminded you of yourself?
...Not really.
As for the Xu family going to the orphanage, it seems that it was because the Xu family had lost a child years ago.
.
The Xu family has visited all the orphanages and welfare homes in the vicinity and is preparing to return to Kyoto.
Before leaving, he extended another invitation, treating the entire Su family to a meal.
During this period, Su's parents kept bringing Su Jinmu to the Xu family and Jiang Jing's side. Su Zeya knew his parents' intentions and also knew that they were taking advantage of Su Jinmu.
He couldn't stop them, nor did he want to go, and declined many times. This time, the Xu family held a farewell banquet and even invited them to dinner.
Su's parents insisted that Su Zeya go with them, resorting to both harsh scolding and gentle coaxing.
He could now glimpse fragments of the oppression and demands that had once been placed upon Su Jinmu.
Su Zeya didn't want to go to the banquet, and neither did Su Jinmu.
This time the meal was more formal; instead of a barbecue by the sea, Xu's family chose a well-known restaurant and gathered everyone together.
Not only the Xu family and the Su family, but also Jiang Jing's parents, who hadn't appeared much before, chatted back and forth.
Su Jinmu ate quietly, listening to their chatter. Fortunately, they didn't mention anything about biological adoption or losing a child.
The hints of conversation seemed to linger around Su Zeya, albeit subtly.
“Zeya is so young, yet he’s always busy with company matters even on vacation. He’s quite accomplished for his age,” Xu Sibai said slowly.
"Thank you, Ms. Xu."
Su Zeya responded with a light laugh, and Su's father praised him with considerable pride, "Zeya joined the company with me a long time ago. He is young and excellent, and he will definitely go further and longer than me in the future."
"At that time, we will still need to rely on General Manager Xu and General Manager Jiang for their support."
Xu Sibai smiled faintly.
Jiang Jing ate in silence, only glancing at Su Zeya after Su's father finished speaking, then at Su Jinmu, before taking a bite of rice.
Last time he went to deliver barbecue to Su Jinmu, he knocked on the door and Li Ge came out, saying that Su Jinmu was already asleep.
I don't know why I went to bed so early.
Maybe he didn't get enough sleep at the Su family's house.
Oh.
He glanced at it once and then looked away.
But Su's father, with his sharp eyes, noticed it in an instant and then smiled at Su Jinmu, saying, "Our Jinmu is also very good. He is still young and will definitely be able to help the Su family reach new heights in the future."
Jiang Jing: "..."
hehe.
Su Jinmu sat calmly eating something, his reactions were indifferent. He only nodded slightly when his parents mentioned him, otherwise he seemed somewhat out of place.
It's like indifference.
Xu Yu and Xu Sibai glanced over casually.
After praising Su Jinmu for being so sensible, Su's father changed the subject, saying, "The Li family is still being targeted. I don't know who has the courage to keep staring at such a powerful and deeply rooted family."
"That person is quite mysterious," he casually inquired. "Does President Xu know who it is?"
The other party is very well hidden.
Xu Sibai shook his head, "I don't know, I've never had any contact with them, but they are indeed very capable."
"No matter how capable you are, you can't fight a giant tree with your bare hands. Families like the Xu and Li families have stable positions, but their appetites are too big. Sooner or later, they will be crushed by the Li family until nothing is left." Father Su shook his head and inadvertently praised the Xu family.
Xu Sibai gave a perfunctory response.
Professor Su Han sat next to Su Jinmu, showing no interest in Su's parents or what they were saying. She glanced at him and saw him eating, so she took some food with serving chopsticks and went over to him in a gentle voice.
"Try this, it tastes pretty good to me."
Su Jinmu thanked him, picked up the food with his chopsticks, and put it in his mouth. It had a light salty and fragrant taste, which was indeed very good and suited his taste.
"When you all return to Jingzhou, come to our house for dinner." Su Han smiled. "I think your tastes are similar to ours. Yu Yu's father is a great cook. Come and try it then."
……!
Su Jinmu paused almost imperceptibly, nodded gently, and smiled slightly, "Okay, when I have time."
"Oh right." Su Han remembered something else, "The customized massage device has arrived. It's at the Xu family's house now. After we get back, we'll have Jiang Jing deliver it to the Su family's house."
Su Jinmu glanced at Jiang Jing, "Thank you, Professor Su, but there's no rush. The Su family home is currently under renovation. Let's talk about it when we get back."
To avoid Jiang Jing running into the flower room renovation site in the past.
Su Han was very easygoing. She nodded gently and chuckled, "That's fine then. You can contact each other later."
"Um."
.
The Xu and Jiang families boarded a plane back home early the next morning after their meal.
Su Jinmu had been pressured and made a scene by Li Xin, which relieved her stress and calmed her emotions. With the Xu family leaving, her mood had returned to a much calmer state.
While in her room in the evening, Su Jinmu suddenly felt like having seafood hot pot and asked the resort restaurant to prepare the ingredients and send them over.
All the seafood was very fresh. After cooking, it was dipped in a little sauce, making it both fresh and fragrant.
Su Jinmu ate with great enjoyment, taking bite after bite, though she was somewhat disappointed that she didn't get to eat the seafood barbecue that Jiang Jing had sent.
Li Xin stared intently at him, her dark eyes glued to him, her lips slightly curved in a smile.
Su Jinmu: "..."
To be honest, he was in a bad mood after returning from the orphanage, and Li Xin was completely innocent in being caught in the crossfire.
Su Jinmu glanced at him, raised her hand, picked up a piece of shrimp with her chopsticks, and wanted to send it over, but since the hot pot was cooked and scooped out fresh, the chopsticks would inevitably drip soup everywhere.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Tsk.
Su Jinmu moved to the side and patted the spot, "Come sit here."
Li Xin: "???"
Li Xin had only been speculating whether Su Jinmu's recent mood swings were related, and upon seeing this, he quickly approached.
There was a single sofa beneath me; although it wasn't small, it was still a bit cramped for two people.
There were spare chopsticks in the tableware. Su Jinmu placed them in front of him and leaned over to put seafood into the pot.
Li Xin: "???"
Li Xin paused for a moment, then stared at the handsome young master beside him, a smirk playing on his lips. "Young master, didn't you forbid me from eating in front of you?"
Su Jinmu glanced at him, a half-smile on her face, "This time it's fine, we'll talk about it next time."
Li Xin raised his eyebrows slightly.
He was anorexic, so he always had to be close to Young Master Su when he ate. Li Xin picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks, tentatively leaned against Su Jinmu, and glanced at him sideways.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu paused briefly with her chopsticks before continuing to eat.
Li Xin raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes slightly darkening. He moved a little closer, holding chopsticks in his right hand, and loosely wrapped his left arm around the young master's waist from behind.
With a slight turn, her cheek brushed against the young master's shoulder.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu looked at him with a quiet gaze. Li Xin smiled gently and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Can't we eat like this?"
Su Jinmu: "…………"
You bastard, don't go too far.
Su Jinmu twitched the corner of her mouth, said nothing, and turned back to continue eating.
He tacitly agreed, but Li Xin's smile flattened slightly, his eyes revealing a deep scrutiny as he stared at Su Jinmu with a dark and brooding expression.
Su Jinmu rarely fed him anything, especially after she learned that she could alleviate his anorexia, she did so even less.
Now, instead of being fed, he is allowed to eat right next to the other person.
The sudden relaxation of attitude is the same as before, because I'm in a good mood, right?
Why are you in such a good mood?
What is the reason?
Su Jinmu was in a good mood after finishing his meal. After a while, Li Xin tidied up his things, and Su Jinmu took a moment to check the progress of the greenhouse renovation on his phone's monitoring system.
Once I confirmed that there were no problems, I felt much better.
He tidied himself up and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
The hot pot smelled strong, and Li Xin was cleaning up everywhere. Su Jinmu went into the bathroom and realized that she hadn't brought her change of clothes, so she came out to get them.
Looking up, she saw Li Xin standing by the sofa, casually moving his face down phone aside while tidying up.
Su Jinmu: "!!!"
The edge of the phone has been lifted, and there is a faint light underneath.
The screen isn't off!!
He just checked the security camera footage from the basement of the greenhouse!
Su Jinmu's hair suddenly stood on end, her whole body tensed up, and she rushed forward, grabbing the phone and pulling it out forcefully.
"I happen to need the phone, give it to me."
"Um?"
Li Xin's long, strong fingers instinctively pressed down, and he slightly raised his eyes, instantly meeting Su Jinmu's slightly serious gaze.
……not good!
Su Jinmu's heart skipped a beat. She pursed her lips, her expression subtly shifting. "I forgot to reply to a message. Hurry up."
Li Xin looked down and saw that the phone was still upside down, with a faint cold light emanating from the screen. He held the phone and a smile played on his lips.
"OK."
He lifted it forcefully and flipped the phone face up.
His dark eyes were fixed intently on the phone.
Su Jinmu's ears twitched slightly. She pursed her lips and pressed the phone, which was facing down. "Just give it to me directly."
He pulled back, his expression normal, but his strength was firm enough to prevent the phone screen from being exposed.
Li Xin stared at Su Jinmu for a long time, then suddenly laughed, a strange glint in his eyes, and a faint smile playing on his scarlet lips.
Tilting its head, it looked like a vengeful ghost, devoid of humanity.
"Is the reason why the young master has been so enthusiastic lately because of his phone?"
Su Jinmu's heart skipped a beat.
What are you saying?
“…Oh, you guessed right.” Li Xin didn’t respond. He moved closer, his scarlet lips under his dark eyebrows becoming even more striking. He leaned in so close that his face was almost touching Su Jinmu’s, his tone low and slow with a smile.
"Young Master has been showing me great interest lately, but the reason... can't be seen by me?"
……interesting.
He laughed, his wet tongue licking the young master's lips, his smile widening with excitement and a hint of wickedness. "Young master, let me see you, okay?"
……！
"Li Xin!"
Su Jinmu's body tensed slightly when he licked her; the other's body temperature was cool, like damp, cold ghostly energy seeping into her bones.
Su Jinmu looked up steadily, gripping her phone, without the slightest hesitation or wavering.
"It's nothing."
"...Oh? So resolute?"
Li Xin's eyes suddenly deepened, his smile becoming almost imperceptible, subtly revealing a hint of malice. He keenly guessed, "Is the secret detrimental to me? Or... would I be detrimental to the young master's secret?"
