Chapter 102 How long?: I want you to hug me first.
Su Jinmu was stunned for a moment, looking bewildered as if she hadn't understood.
marry?
Is Li Xin really going to marry him?
No, Li Xin must have some wicked idea, trying to torture him in various ways.
Su Jinmu didn't quite understand, so she frowned and remained silent, watching the workers operate the machines to gradually drain the huge lake.
Amidst the rumbling sound and gusts of cold wind, Su Jinmu watched indifferently, letting Li Xin stick close to him from behind, treating him like a leech, ignoring him completely.
Li Xin stared at him for a while, noticing his furrowed brows and indifferent expression from the side. She then tugged at the corner of her mouth and smiled.
He was in a good mood, rubbing against people from behind like a clingy and terrifying ghost, sticking to them tightly.
"It's okay, you have a day and a half to get used to it."
"We'll get married in a day and a half."
What will it be like after marriage? Li Xin's thoughts drifted, an instinctive smile rising within him, his blood surging with excitement.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu looked completely bewildered.
The lake water was pumped down quite a bit, revealing the wet, dark mud at the bottom of the lake, which was so muddy and treacherous that it looked like a swamp that it would swallow people up.
Su Jinmu watched quietly, expressionless, standing in the cold wind, feeling as if she were also in a swamp.
There was nowhere to escape.
Are you cold?
A sound came from behind her, close to her ear, the breath was icy cold, but Su Jinmu didn't feel cold.
His body seemed somewhat numb; from the moment he entered the Li family, he had naturally become shielded from external stimuli.
I don't feel cold, I don't feel pain, I'm just numb and dazed.
When I pinched my earlobe with my fingertips, it was just as cold. I gently rubbed it with the pads of my two fingers and found that it didn't warm up.
Li Xin lowered his head and examined the clothes Su Jinmu was wearing.
Since we didn't plan to let the young master go out, he only had loungewear and no warm coat or shoes.
Li Xin unbuttoned his coat, a smile playing on his lips, and reached out from both sides, intending to wrap the young master up to him.
Su Jinmu snapped back to reality the instant her hand brushed against the lining of her clothes. Her eyelashes fluttered, and she abruptly took a step forward, turning back to stare coldly at him. "What are you doing?"
Li Xin pulled open the hem of his clothes, a smile curving his face, and said slowly and deliberately, "I was afraid the young master would be cold."
Su Jinmu twitched the corner of her mouth, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and stood a little further away.
Li Xin smiled and didn't care. They would get married in a day and a half, and there would be even more time after the marriage. He had plenty of time to slowly work things out with the young master.
"It's too cold, let's go back first."
Li Xin stepped forward and grasped Su Jinmu's wrist.
Su Jinmu frowned and tried to pull his wrist back, but Li Xin seemed to be familiar with his movements and immediately anticipated his move, raising his hand to clench it tightly.
"Let go," Su Jinmu said coldly.
"Young Master is so cold."
Li Xin pretended not to hear, a deep smile playing on his dark eyes. "Let's go inside first."
After saying that, he pulled the person inside.
Su Jinmu pursed her lips even tighter.
The two entered the house, where the warmth enveloped them. Su Jinmu hadn't felt cold before, but once inside, she realized her body was stiff.
He looked at Li Xin warily, but Li Xin glanced at his phone and suddenly hurriedly left.
"Young master, wait for me here. Don't wander off."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Su Jinmu stared at his back for a while, then lifted her leg and began to walk around the house without hesitation, looking it over from upstairs to downstairs.
He won't listen to Li Xin.
Reaching the door of a room on the first floor, this should be the edge of the villa. Next to the room door is an iron gate; opening it should allow you to enter the yard.
Su Jinmu glanced around, intending to turn around, but then she caught a glimpse of the last room's door, which was slightly ajar, with a wooden stick sticking out from the floor, blocking the door.
Su Jinmu looked at it and it looked like a hoe.
"..." He paused, pressed his fingertips on the door, and pushed it open a little.
It was very dark inside, with only a small light on, which could only illuminate a small area.
There was a hoe at the door. Su Jinmu took two steps forward, and the light moved forward as well. A shovel appeared on the ground beside her feet. She walked further forward, and a thick roll of planting tarpaulin appeared under her feet.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu pursed her lips, a strange feeling stirring within her. It was odd, inexplicable, and somewhat awkward.
He tended the garden at the Su family's house, and everyone just got used to it naturally. But no one knew that he did it purely because he loved planting.
Su Jinmu continued forward, and with a "click," the last light came on, revealing a bouquet of flowers on the table against the dim background. However, instead of flowers, the bouquet contained packets of seeds.
The green plastic bags were arranged in circles, resembling plastic flowers, a bizarre and funny sight.
"……sieve……"
A faint breath came from behind her. Su Jinmu lowered her eyes and felt a few cool breaths on the back of her neck, like a dangerous, silent beast creeping up on her.
Do you like it?
A low, melodious voice sounded, carrying a hint of expectant laughter, as if waiting for some joyful words.
A strange feeling rose in Su Jinmu's heart again, and she pinched her hand. "I don't like it."
His voice was wary, "What exactly do you want?"
"...Tsk."
Li Xin's lips curled up, but the smile was faint. "As expected, the young master doesn't listen to me and wanders around everywhere. He's also so cold to me. He's not as good as he was at the Su family. He would smile at me from time to time."
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu scoffed.
"I'm not doing anything." Li Xin rubbed his chin against his shoulder and clothes, his voice soft and smiling, "I just hope the young master is happy."
The sound was light and cheerful, natural and casual.
Without saying anything deliberately, it brought out an indescribable sincerity.
It was as if he genuinely hoped for it.
Su Jinmu's heart skipped a beat, her chest felt strangely numb, and she forcefully looked away.
.
Li Xin was very happy, visibly happy. He was calculating the wedding date and thinking about arranging for people to decorate the house.
...No, the young master definitely wouldn't want to see that.
Li Xin tapped the table with his fingertips, thinking casually that the young master was already unhappy with him, and would probably be even angrier when he saw the wedding decorations.
Li Xin crossed the wedding planning out of his mind, deciding to postpone the wedding until later. For now, he would just have someone do a thorough cleaning of the house and get everything spotless.
Su Jinmu watched as a large number of servants and cleaners poured in, cleaning and tidying every corner without missing a single one.
Li Xin was still happily making arrangements, seemingly pleased with something.
Su Jinmu glanced at him a few times, then, not wanting to look anymore, looked away.
As evening fell, Li Xin prepared to return to the master bedroom, and Su Jinmu casually raised her eyes, "Where do I sleep?"
Li Xin: "??"
Li Xin turned around, a smile on his face, his scarlet lips curving up like some kind of seductive ghost, "Of course, you'll sleep with me."
Su Jinmu: "???"
Su Jinmu's eyes were cold as she looked at him quietly.
Li Xin smiled and walked towards him. "If we skip tonight, we'll be getting married in another day. There's no need to find another guest room."
A hint of absurdity almost welled up in Su Jinmu's eyes. "Have you made enough of a scene?"
Marriage, marriage? What marriage?!
What exactly does Li Xin want to do?
He frowned, his face was cold, and his clear eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of ice, chilling people to the bone.
Li Xin looked at him, her smile vanishing for a moment, but quickly returning, her voice calm, "I'm not making a fuss, young master must marry me."
He pointed at her and said, "You, Su Jinmu, will marry me, Li Xin."
To be together for a long time.
A chill seemed to emanate from Su Jinmu as she let out a sneer.
Li Xin remained calm and not angry at all. She smiled, a slight curve at the corner of her mouth, and gently rubbed her fingertips against his wrist. "Go back to sleep."
He pulled Su Jinmu to the door of the master bedroom. Su Jinmu knew there was an empty guest bedroom not far away and planned to go there.
But the moment he pulled his hand away, the fingers that had been loosely wrapped around his wrist suddenly tightened, binding him firmly.
“…Li, Xin”.
Su Jinmu stared at him, tightened her grip, and spoke slowly and deliberately.
"Hmm." Li Xin smiled, as if he were a ghost crawling out of hell, eerily joyful, "It sounds so nice when the young master calls my name."
Su Jinmu gritted her teeth.
Li Xin laughed, his pupils dark, pointed to the master bedroom door, then to the floor, "The bed in the master bedroom, or the doorway to the master bedroom, young master, you can choose, you can sleep wherever you want."
The bedding from last night was still lying by the bedroom door.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu felt a tightness in her chest, her arms were too heavy to move, she pursed her lips, kicked open the bedroom door and went inside.
Li Xin smiled and said, "Young Master, you have such long legs and great strength."
like.
The last sentence came from the bottom of my heart.
Li Xin locked the door and went to wash up. When Su Jinmu returned from her shower, Li Xin was already lying in bed.
He covered himself with the blanket halfway, leaving the other half uncovered, as if he were waiting for someone.
But the bedroom was a bit chilly. Su Jinmu had just finished showering and her pores were contracted, so she felt quite cold.
Li Xin patted the empty seat beside him and smiled, "Here."
Su Jinmu: "..."
What a strange scene.
Su Jinmu couldn't understand Li Xin's intentions at all.
...Anyway, we slept together last night. What's wrong with two people lying together fully clothed?
After a few minutes of mental preparation, Su Jinmu slowly walked over, lay down, covered herself with the blanket, and lay flat on her back.
The blanket wasn't big, and Su Jinmu intentionally kept his distance from Li Xin, so the blanket only covered half of his body. But it didn't matter; he closed his eyes and prepared to sleep.
"drop--"
The sound of the appliance starting up, accompanied by a slight friction sound.
The wind suddenly picked up in the room, and the chill seeped in, as if the wind and snow outside had broken through the window and poured into the room, making it so cold that it almost made one shiver.
Su Jinmu glanced at the window; under the electric control, all the windows in the master bedroom were opening and closing until they were at their maximum size.
Su Jinmu: "...?"
What are you doing? Does Li Xin want to freeze him to death in the middle of the night, and also make him freeze along with him?
Su Jinmu leaned against the edge of the bed, wanting to get down and manually close the window.
Su Jinmu felt a sudden tightness on her wrist, her nerves twitching, and she quickly stared at Li Xin.
The boy smiled, took his wrist, and gently rubbed it against him. "Are you cold?"
"What do you want?" Su Jinmu asked expressionlessly.
"Young Master is so fierce to me." Li Xin pursed his lips, looking somewhat pitiful and bizarre, staring straight at me like a demon. "Just sleep like this."
Su Jinmu: "..." It was torture, torture that Li Xin deliberately devised to get revenge on him.
Su Jinmu looked at him. "Is this your revenge?"
Li Xin smiled and said, "Yes."
Su Jinmu pursed her lips, her expression unreadable, her fingers curling and then relaxing, before lying back down.
A reply was sent.
He was sent to the Li family solely to suffer Li Xin's revenge.
He moved further away from Li Xin, almost touching the edge of the bed, with only a small edge of the blanket left draped over him. The cold wind blew against him, chilling him to the bone.
Su Jinmu began to think about how long he would stay in the Li family.
You can't stay here forever; even the longest response has a time limit.
He couldn't hold out for long.
Su Jinmu closed her eyes, and Li Xin began to move to the side, "Young Master."
"Isn't the young master cold sleeping like this?"
Li Xin's voice was tinged with laughter as he swiftly lifted the blanket slightly, stretched out his arm, grabbed Su Jinmu's waist, and pulled her into his arms.
"...Hmm."
Su Jinmu opened her eyes. After being exposed to the cold wind, she was suddenly pulled into someone's arms. She almost trembled from the heat of the other person's body, and her fingertips quivered.
It's so hot.
Isn't Li Xin always short of body temperature?
...No, it wasn't body temperature; something was poking him.
Su Jinmu suddenly lowered her eyes and looked into the blanket, her eyes widening in an instant.
All that could be seen were heat patches covering the bed sheets, inside the blankets, and on Li Xin's clothes, chest, back, and thighs.
It was so hot it felt like a furnace.
Li Xin's lips curled into a sinister smile. "My revenge isn't to make you freeze, it's to make you willingly crawl into my arms."

The vengeful ghost: I won't say which ghost has been scalded and blistered, but it's definitely not me.
