Chapter 100 You Must Love Me: A Fleeting Kiss
Su Jinmu was stunned for only a moment before the water in the bathtub overflowed, and a dark figure squeezed in, overwhelmingly imposing.
The water level was forced to rise, and I could barely breathe.
Su Jinmu raised her hand to push, but the bathtub was already full. She could only push Li Xin to the edge of the tub, not lift him out. She couldn't help but frown and say, "Get out of the way."
"Tsk."
Li Xin chuckled twice, his palm pressed against Su Jinmu's waist, gripping her tightly. "The more it displeases the young master, the more I'll do it."
The water in the bathtub slid, wetting my shoulders and splashing onto the ground outside.
Su Jinmu was still wearing her wet clothes, getting wet and then leaving the water. Her icy face was as cold as her body temperature, devoid of any warmth or vitality.
Li Xin moved his hand to his shoulder, gripped it tightly, and felt the bone-chilling cold below, still at the temperature of the frozen lake.
The handsome young master, dressed in frost, looked almost like a doll made of ice and snow.
If it could be frozen into ice crystals, it would be the most perfect collectible.
Li Xin's eyes were dark as he lightly licked his lips.
...Never mind, it's too cold. It's better to have it warm.
Su Jinmu didn't want to be near him, found it annoying, and tried to get up, but Li Xin was in the way, preventing him from leaving the bathtub area, so he could only push him away forcefully.
Ripples surged underwater, and Li Xin, caught off guard, lost control of the young master's wrist, accidentally brushing against it somewhere.
My body suddenly felt extremely hot.
It was even hotter than warm water.
"—Splash!"
Li Xin stared at Su Jinmu's almost bone-chilling gaze, stood up without warning, his face not looking good, turned around and got out of the bathtub, leaving without saying a word.
Su Jinmu: "???"
Su Jinmu was stunned, wondering what was wrong with this strange thing, but it was good that it was gone.
Su Jinmu exhaled, stood up, drained all the water from the bathtub, rinsed herself clean, and then refilled it with hot water to expel the cold air from her body.
...He didn't want to share a bath with Li Xin.
After Su Jinmu finished soaking in the hot water, she went to the bathroom door, where a set of clothes was already placed next to her.
It's very thin, meant for loungewear, not for wearing outside.
Su Jinmu stared at it for a while, then placed her palm on it and touched it... It was actually a proper set of clothes, with no glue or hidden needles inside.
Although Su Jinmu hadn't done these things to Li Xin, he still thought... given Li Xin's personality, the retaliation would be far more astonishing than he imagined, tormenting him constantly.
They might be trying to mislead him and lower his guard.
Su Jinmu lowered her eyes and casually changed her clothes.
Li Xin stepped out of the bathtub, the heat in his body tugging at his nerves, making the dark, thick pupils in his eyes almost solidify.
He only wanted to get revenge on the young master, so this physical reaction was completely unexpected.
...It might just be an accident.
Li Xin tugged at the corner of his mouth, suppressing the restlessness and desire within his body.
It was already completely dark outside. Su Jinmu walked around for a while and happened to see Li Xin at the door of the room.
It must be the master bedroom; he had already changed his clothes and was completely dry.
...His loungewear and the outfit he was wearing looked somewhat similar; at first glance, they almost looked like matching couple outfits.
Su Jinmu pursed his lips, his face expressionless. When Li Xin saw him, the corners of his mouth curved slightly. "Young Master."
Su Jinmu glanced at him.
"It's getting late, but unfortunately, there's no guest room prepared for the young master."
Li Xin thought for a moment and said casually, "Then I'll trouble you, young master, to make a makeshift bed outside my room."
Just like he used to do at the young master's room door.
Several servants came over, put down the bedding by the door, and then disappeared.
Su Jinmu looked at Li Xin, and after he finished speaking, she closed the door and went inside, with a strange smile on her face.
Su Jinmu glanced away and chuckled softly.
really.
When he was at the Su family's house, at least he didn't cause any trouble at Li Xin's place. Li Xin lived peacefully in his own room.
Now the situation has reversed, and when it was his turn, he didn't even have a bed, let alone a room.
Su Jinmu curled his fingertips slightly but didn't react much, since he had expected it.
Li Xin's retaliation will be far more ruthless than he imagines.
Su Jinmu glanced at the door; the dark door panel looked like a passage leading to hell, bottomless and absorbing light.
There was a gap in the door, not closed properly, like a dangerous trap luring someone to fall in.
...I wonder how Li Xin intends to torture him.
Su Jinmu withdrew her gaze, too lazy to even look, and turned to walk out.
He went outside and looked around.
This place is very large; just by looking at the lake inside the manor walls, you can tell it occupies a huge area.
The courtyard wall is so high that it is impossible to climb it without a ladder.
Su Jinmu looked around and, realizing she couldn't get out, found a place to sit by the lake.
It gets even colder at night; the area near the water is not only cold, but also damp and chilling to the bone.
Su Jinmu sat by the lake, quietly watching the dark surface of the lake in the night. The cold wind blew across his hair and cheeks, almost freezing his eyelashes.
This place is different from the Su family's. The Su family likes to keep a few lights on at night, but here it's completely dark. There are no servants in sight, and no light comes through the windows.
It felt like a completely dark and thick world, about to drag people into a swamp.
...but he was already in the swamp.
Su Jinmu's eyelashes trembled.
Li Xin will not let him go. He cannot predict Li Xin's revenge, nor can he foresee the subsequent methods.
...But it's nothing.
Ultimately, he no longer cared about anything.
He once tormented Li Xin, and now Li Xin is tormenting him; it's fair.
As long as it doesn't involve the Su family, anything goes.
This can be considered his way of apologizing for implicating the Su family.
But that's all.
Su Jinmu felt a numbness in her chest; she felt neither cold nor pain.
Only numbness.
The wind carried him, and he sank into the deep darkness.
The thin, slender figure was almost swallowed by the darkness.
He didn't move, didn't struggle, just sat there calmly, his figure blurred.
Li Xin waited in the room for a long time, but there was no sound outside. The handsome and aloof young master did not make a sound, nor did he push the door open to enter.
He thought the young master was really asleep at the door, but when he opened the door, he didn't see a soul in sight.
The bedding remained in its original place, arranged exactly as it was, without any sign of being moved.
? ! !
Where are they?!
Li Xin's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately went out to look for him. He searched the villa but couldn't find him. Finally, he saw a figure sitting in the yard.
...Do you hate him that much?
She wouldn't even share a house with him?
Li Xin stared intently with a deep expression.
An inexplicable restlessness welled up inside me, a surge of anger rose within me, and I felt a sense of emptiness. I quietly stepped forward.
Su Jinmu was a little sleepy, her thoughts were slowing down, and as she sat by the lake, her eyelids were heavy and her limbs felt heavy, almost as if she were exhausted.
Tired and sleepy, I gently close my eyes.
The wind blew, and his thin body, like a withered leaf, swayed and tilted to the side.
A hand suddenly appeared, icy cold, and pressed against his cheek.
Su Jinmu had a low body temperature and didn't feel cold, but the sensation of being touched made him open his eyes. He subconsciously braced himself on the ground with both hands and twisted his body in the opposite direction to avoid it.
But suddenly, my wrists tightened, and both of my hands were grabbed and pulled back hard from behind.
"...Hmm."
Su Jinmu groaned, lost her balance, and pressed her cheek against that icy palm.
What do you want to do?
Su Jinmu's voice was colder than ice. A weight pressed down on him from behind, touching the back of his neck. Su Jinmu's hair stood on end, and he frowned and shouted, "Li Xin!"
Li Xin smiled. Unexpectedly, hearing his own name called out by the young master made him feel really good, genuinely excited.
"I can do whatever I want."
"Young Master didn't even see me, yet he guessed correctly." Li Xin smiled. "I'm very happy."
Su Jinmu coldly said, "Let go."
"Don't loosen it."
Li Xin pressed the tip of his nose against the back of his neck, which was equally cold. Li Xin felt a little uncomfortable, as he always felt that the young master should be warm. He gently rubbed against him.
A sweet aroma filled the air.
Li Xin's gaze darkened slightly, his breathing became erratic, and his lips inadvertently touched the skin on the back of his neck, gently caressing it.
It smells so good.
like.
Li Xin's heart twisted strangely twice. After pausing for two seconds, he followed his instincts and pressed his lips against the nape of her neck, gently biting the fair skin.
"Hmm."
Su Jinmu was shocked, her eyes widening slightly. Her arms, which were twisted behind her back, struggled more fiercely as she gritted her teeth, "What are you doing?!"
Li Xin smiled, his voice strange, low, and hoarse, "I said, I can do whatever I want."
Including his young master.
Li Xin's eyes were dark. He grabbed his wrist, turned him around with his other hand, and with a quick movement, easily picked him up with one hand and carried him into the house.
Su Jinmu couldn't muster any strength in her arms. She pursed her lips and tried to kick, but Li Xin pressed her down forcefully, leaving her with almost no room to exert any force.
They quickly returned to the master bedroom of the villa. Without even glancing at the bedding by the door, Li Xin carried the person directly into the room.
They went to the bedside and threw the person onto the soft mattress.
"...Hmm."
The bed was too soft, and Su Jinmu was bounced up and down by the springs, making her dizzy and her expression even worse; she felt extremely cold.
Li Xin had just locked the door. The enclosed space gave him a great sense of security. Staring at the handsome young master on the bed, making sure he couldn't escape his sight, he smiled.
Taking advantage of Su Jinmu's dizziness, they grabbed the blanket, wrapped her up, and trapped her inside.
He covered her body with it, pressing her firmly against the blanket.
"you--"
Su Jinmu didn't understand his actions, but he wasn't a complete fool either. He calmly said, "Get out of here."
Li Xin chuckled, "You think I'll just leave because you tell me to?"
"Times have changed, my young master."
Su Jinmu's face was cold. She tried to reach her hand out from under the blanket, but before she could, it was pressed down by the blanket and she couldn't move.
Li Xin curled the corners of his lips, leaned closer, and stared straight into his eyes.
"Does the young master dislike me?"
Su Jinmu almost laughed, her voice indifferent, "Is there anything about you that isn't annoying?"
"ha."
Li Xin chuckled, a strange possessiveness burning in his eyes, "Others can hate me, but you can't."
—You must love me.
A chilling thought popped into his head, and in that instant of clarity it almost made him tremble and his desire surge.
Endless greed and audacity swelled in Li Xin's eyes.
You must love me!
Li Xin looked at Su Jinmu with a puzzled, even absurd, gaze, and before Su Jinmu could bring himself to smile mockingly, he raised his hand and covered Su Jinmu's eyes.
I don't want to watch it.
I don't want to see that kind of look.
A chilling aura emanated from Li Xin as he leaned down, staring at the young master's soft lips, getting closer and closer still.
Their breaths mingled together.
Su Jinmu frowned, wanting to curse, but inexplicably felt a sense of danger and pursed her lips.
Li Xin smiled, and at the last second when they were almost touching, she controlled herself and changed her position slightly, pressing her lips against his cheek.
It was just a light, fleeting moment.
From a fleeting glance to almost innocent affection.

The young Taoist priest: "..."
The young Taoist priest pursed his lips.
