Chapter 43 Su Jinmu is running away?! Li Xin was filled with hostility, "Young Master..."
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu was pushed and squeezed into the corner of the sofa by Li Xin, her body completely covered by the boy, unable to move and with nowhere to hide.
The boy stood very close, his gaze fixed on her, his dark eyes revealing not only desire but also a deeper layer of inquiry.
It was pitch black and terrifying, as if it wanted to thoroughly study even his soul.
They were so close that Su Jinmu could almost feel her breath mingling with Li Xin's, rising in temperature and gradually becoming damp in the cramped space between their bodies.
Su Jinmu smiled, raised her hand, and slowly touched the boy's earlobe with her fingertips, then traced it along his cheek and slowly moved to his lips.
The young master had clear, bright eyes and a slight smile, as if he didn't care at all. His rosy lips were curved, and his fingertips lightly poked at the corner of the boy's mouth.
"Let me think." Su Jinmu brushed her fingertips against his lips, raised an eyebrow, and smiled faintly. "It seems someone said they wouldn't pry into my secrets anymore, they just wanted me not to neglect him, hmm?"
Li Xin: "..."
Su Jinmu smiled faintly as she looked at the boy, "Now that you're asking me all these questions, are you going to back out and want me to ignore him?"
Li Xin's expression suddenly changed, a cold aura emanating from him, which he then suppressed.
The boy's lips curled down, and he rubbed his fingertips together, his white teeth gently grinding against his fingertips. His dark, sharp eyes revealed a strange smile.
"Young master is mistaken; that was not what I said."
It was P who said that.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu: "…………"
Li Xin curled his lips into a smile, his possessiveness rising in his eyes. A faint unease had been lingering over him ever since he entered the room.
He couldn't help but want to get closer, to devour the young master completely, and to stick together forever.
Li Xin revealed a sinister smile, her eyebrows and eyes were sinister, her lips were scarlet, and she exuded a ghostly aura, so beautiful that she seemed to be able to steal one's soul.
He gently licked Su Jinmu's fingertips, one light lick at a time.
The young master's fingers were slender and white, with neatly trimmed, rounded nails that had a touch of pink on them. Now, as they were being caressed by the wet tip of his tongue, they were turning a faint blush.
Jade-like color intertwined with desire, and Li Xin's Adam's apple bobbed heavily.
"Young Master."
His voice was very soft and slow.
"Tell me, what did you burn? Where did it go?"
P cannot be explored, but Li Xin can.
Unless the young master himself admits that P and Li Xin are the same person.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu: "…………"
Tsk.
That damn thing.
"What if I don't tell you?" Su Jinmu said casually.
Li Xin's pupils grew increasingly dark, like a bottomless abyss. His gaze slowly swept over the young master's slender neck and soft abdomen. His breathing became heavier, but he remained silent.
But the intention is clear.
Su Jinmu smiled, raised her hand, and pulled the boy down by the collar, bringing him to her side.
"Hmm."
Their already close bodies pressed even closer together, crowding the corner of the sofa, making the air feel heavy and stifling.
Su Jinmu looked up and lightly placed a kiss on the boy's chin, warm and delicate, then moved to his cheek and finally to the tip of his nose.
They kissed slowly and gently.
The boy's scarlet lips were even more vibrant as he licked them.
Su Jinmu smiled faintly and pressed her lips to the boy's.
“Come on, C. Cry for me.”
The darkness in Li Xin's eyes deepened.
Possessiveness spreads, accompanied by a deeper sense of vigilance.
Young master, there's definitely something wrong with you.
.
The night was deep, but the room was warm and cozy.
Su Jinmu closed her eyes, her consciousness was somewhat blurred, and she felt as if all the bones in her body were about to fall apart.
This time it was much more harmonious than before, perhaps because his teachings to Li Xin were beginning to take effect, and he had learned to exercise restraint.
As for making him cry...
Ah, Li Xin is no good.
Su Jinmu had no strength left and drifted off to sleep. As her consciousness faded, she vaguely felt her hand being held and touching the boy's burning hot skin.
The temperature was scorching.
...Have you calmed down yet?
His mind went blank.
The young master is asleep.
Li Xin stared at the person in his arms, his pupils dark and intense, his gaze unreadable.
The young master was not in a good mood, and he was afraid that he would lose control of his emotions and hurt the young master.
I didn't indulge myself too much, and I actually fell asleep from exhaustion.
I can't wait any longer.
Su Jinmu lay on her side in bed with her eyes closed. Her naturally rosy lips were alluring, and her long eyelashes drooped as she looked at her captivating eyes.
Beautiful and breathtaking.
Li Xin's expression darkened, and he leaned closer, gently licking his lips.
The young master is acting strangely.
But he didn't know what was going on; only a strange sense of vigilance welled up inside him.
Regardless of the reason.
He won't let the young master leave him.
They wanted to be together forever.
Li Xin curled his lips into a strange smile, hugged the person and cuddled intimately, then took out his phone and sent out a few messages to check Su Jinmu's schedule for the day.
.
The Xu family invited Su Jinmu over to play and have a meal.
Su Jinmu didn't want to go at first, but then she thought that it was impossible to completely cut off contact before he died.
He then left without hesitation.
Su Jinmu brought some gifts, nothing too expensive, just some snacks and such.
Su Han exclaimed in disapproval, looking at him with slight disapproval, "You're a child, you can't let children buy these things, don't take them next time."
Su Jinmu smiled slightly.
"Jinmu." Xu Sibai poked half his body out from the kitchen, smiling elegantly. He was wearing an apron and holding a still lively fish in his hand, his eyes crinkling with laughter.
How about we have fish for dinner?
Su Jinmu looked up and said, "I'm fine with anything, thank you, Mr. Xu."
"Calling me 'uncle' is too formal, sir."
Xu Sibai clicked his tongue, glanced at the fish in his hand, and said, "I'll finish the fish first."
Su Han took out the small cake that Su Jinmu hadn't gotten to eat last time, pursed her lips and looked at him, "You left so suddenly last time, I originally asked your Uncle Xu to bring you one, but I accidentally dropped it on the ground. This one is newly bought, have a taste."
Su Jinmu's gaze fell on the cake box in Professor Su Han's hand. When she saw the three of them on the roadside that day, Professor Su Han was carrying just such a cake box.
It was originally meant for him.
Su Jinmu lowered her gaze slightly, her eyes curved gently, her expression was serene and calm, and her voice softened.
"Thanks."
Su Han frowned slightly at his thank you.
Even though Su Jinmu had said thank you before, looking at this child now, I felt... a strange sense of unease.
Su Jinmu took a small fork, slowly picked up a small piece, and put it in her mouth.
It's fruit cream.
The sweet fruit aroma balances out the richness of the cream.
It melts between your lips and teeth, leaving your entire mouth feeling sweet.
It's very sweet.
Su Jinmu smiled again.
Seeing that he liked it, Su Han smiled and gently patted his head. "Then I'll buy it for you next time, or you can try to see if your Uncle Xu can make it. Homemade materials are better and healthier."
She got up and went to the kitchen to talk to Xu Sibai.
Su Jinmu slowly ate the small cake.
In the kitchen, Su Han told Xu Sibai about the cake. Xu Sibai always cooked the meals at home, and he had tried making cakes and cookies as well.
It should be fine.
"Tell Jinmu to save a piece for me so I can study the recipe."
Su Han nodded.
Xu Sibai had just finished preparing the fish when he saw Xu Yu coming out of the room with her phone. He suddenly smiled, looked at Su Han, and pretended to whisper.
"Hanhan, there are a lot of fish bones in this fish. We can watch Yuyu spit them out later, instead of spitting out watermelon seeds."
Su Han's lips curled up into a wide smile, and she couldn't stop laughing.
Xu Yu, who was walking by with her phone in hand, said, "..."
Xu Yu glanced at the two of them speechlessly.
"Yes, just keep that indifferent look in your eyes."
Su Han looked Xu Yu up and down, then touched her chin. "Good Yu Yu, let Mom look forward to seeing how Yu Yu can be so cold and sarcastic."
Xu Yu: "…………"
Xu Yu said expressionlessly, "I can choose not to eat fish."
“That won’t do,” Xu Sibai retorted. “Dad went to great lengths to buy it, and it was alive. The fish tail slapped me many times on the way here. If Yu Yu doesn’t eat it, Dad will have been beaten for nothing.”
Xu Yu: "..."
Xu Yu became increasingly expressionless.
Su Jinmu looked over there and smiled, amusement spreading across her face.
He felt somewhat relieved.
The Xu family is doing very well and is very happy.
That's fine.
Su Jinmu let out a soft breath, feeling much lighter.
Xu Yu didn't want to pay attention to her parents who were deliberately making things difficult for her, so she went to Su Jinmu's side, raised her hand, grabbed his arm, and pulled him.
"Come on, let's go inside. If we don't stay here, these two might make you spit out fish bones too."
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu smiled slightly, "That's alright, I won't be cold."
Xu Yu: "..."
Xuyu led him into Mumu's room and rummaged around until she found a camera.
With a calm expression, he said, "Let me show you the photos."
Professor Su Han came in and, seeing this, also came over to take a look.
Xu Yu connected the camera to the tablet and started playing the video. It contained photos of children, including Xu Yu's youngest son and Xu Yu herself.
The two looked somewhat alike when they were young.
Xu Yu's gaze fell on Su Jinmu, her expression ambiguous, calm and indifferent, as if she had said it casually, "If you come across anyone who looks like Mu Mu, or like me, remember to tell me."
Su Jinmu: "..."
Is this still a test for him?
Su Jinmu nodded.
After the photo, there was a video, which was from a long time ago and the quality wasn't very clear.
The child lay in the cradle, with Xiao Haoxuyu, who was also short and small, standing next to him.
Even at a young age, Xuyu was already a cool and aloof girl. She would look at the baby in the cradle, play with him casually with building blocks, and also play with her younger brother.
Su Han clearly knew what the video was about to show, and she started laughing as she looked at the screen.
Inside, Xiao Xuyu took two building blocks and pretended to pinch them into the child's hand to scare him.
The child was frightened; his mouth trembled, and he looked at her with teary eyes.
Xiao Xuyu was satisfied, and with a wicked grin, he let out a "heh" laugh.
"Yuyu, your smile is so funny, haha."
Su Han mimicked her with a "hey".
Xu Yu: "..."
This is a series of videos, and there are more to come. Xiaoxuyu plays with her younger brother's building blocks several times, and the child gradually becomes smarter.
Even when she got pinched again, she didn't cry or pout; she just blinked and looked at her.
Xiao Haoxuyu: "..."
It's pointless.
Xiao Xuyu didn't make her younger brother cry; she just gave a cold, pouting look.
She pouted, and the baby in the cradle immediately became smug, waving his hand and grinning wickedly, "Hehe."
Xiao Haoxuyu: "..."
The expressions of Xuyu in the room and Xiao Xuyu in the video were synchronized at this moment, without any expression, and they clicked their tongues.
The video shows Xu Sibai and Su Han laughing and crying at the time of filming.
Su Han laughed, her voice gentle, "Thanks to Yu Yu, Mu Mu learned evil before she could even speak, hehe."
Xu Yu: "..."
Su Jinmu: "..."
Xu Yu turned her head, glanced at Su Jinmu, and said casually, "By the way, do you have any photos or videos of yourself when you were little? My parents like to look at their children."
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Han didn't have this hobby, but she usually didn't refute Xu Yu's words, and for a moment she didn't think too much about it. Her eyes brightened slightly as she looked at Su Jinmu and observed her carefully.
"Jinmu is good-looking, she must have been cute when she was little."
She looked expectant. "Do you have photos? Videos would be even better."
Su Jinmu: "..."
The only two remaining cards have already turned to ashes.
Su Jinmu smiled slightly, "I'll look for it when I get back."
"Okay, remember to bring it next time you come so that Auntie can see it."
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu nodded slightly.
We'll talk about it next time.
.
Professor Su Han and Mr. Xu Sibai said they wanted to see Xu Yu coldly spit out fish bones, but they actually prepared two fish, one with bones and one without.
Everything was laid out in front of Xuyu and him; they could choose whatever they liked to eat.
With the Xu family living a peaceful and happy life, Su Jinmu felt relieved and completely at ease. She stopped thinking too much and focused on the present moment.
Focus on the period before his death.
Enjoy yourself when you should, indulge yourself when you should.
Play with ghosts as much as you want.
Have a blast before you leave.
Su Jinmu's lips curved into a smile.
It was completely dark when they got back. Su Jinmu went into the bathroom to wash his hands. He came in casually and didn't turn on the light.
It was dimly lit at the moment, and a breeze was blowing in from outside the window. A slightly cold temperature pressed against my back, and it felt like a spirit was covering me.
Two rough hands reached out from either side and gently grasped his hands.
"Young Master."
The wind whispers softly in my ears.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu's hands were still covered in foam, smooth and pure white, with only the tips of his fingers slightly pink. These hands held hers, and through the foam, the foam was slowly inserted between her fingers.
The back of my neck was also licked by a bit of cold, wetness.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu's smile widened, and she casually maintained the same posture without moving.
Before his eyes, those hands caressed between his fingers, taking his place and gently massaging and washing him. The foam grew thicker and thicker, completely enveloping both hands.
Su Jinmu couldn't see her hands beneath the dense foam, but she could feel the warmth, which gradually increased as her fingertips intertwined.
The air behind my ears felt hot.
"Where did the young master go today?" a voice asked softly from behind.
Su Jinmu raised her lips, seemingly nonchalant, "You wouldn't know?"
"..." Li Xin chuckled twice, his terrifying possessiveness already laid bare before the young master, pointed out directly and clearly explained.
The young master knows.
A surge of excitement welled up inside Li Xin, and his possessiveness grew stronger. He nibbled at Li Xin's earlobe and licked it wetly.
"...Hiss, bite gently." Su Jinmu tilted her head slightly.
"No." Li Xin's voice was low and slow, chuckling softly, "Young Master went to the Xu family again. How are you feeling today?"
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu clicked her tongue, nonchalantly saying, "Fine, if it weren't good, I wouldn't have let you play with my hand like that."
"Then why were you in a bad mood last time?"
Li Xin's pupils were dark and deep, the light was dim, his eyes were thick, but his vision was good, staring straight at the young master in the mirror.
Looking in the mirror, the young master was completely trapped in his arms, with the sink in front of him and him on all sides behind him, bent over.
As long as he wants...
Li Xin licked his lips excitedly, nuzzling behind the young master's ear and inhaling the light, sweet fragrance. He had already found out that the last time he went to the Xu family, he went twice in one day.
Why am I in a bad mood?
There didn't seem to be any major arguments.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu felt ticklish from his rubbing, and no matter how she shook her head, she couldn't avoid him. Her breathing became erratic. "Who said I was in a bad mood? You guessed wrong."
“I saw it with my own eyes.”
"Then you're mistaken."
Li Xin curled his lips downwards, tightened his grip on the young master's hand, his knuckles digging into the young master's fingers, his eyes darkening.
The foam on her hands had gradually burst over time. Su Jinmu chuckled a few times and tried to pull her hands away.
There were still blisters between his fingers, slippery and unstable. Li Xin tried to hold on with all his might, but he still couldn't stop the hand that was trying to break free. His eyes darkened, and a strange emotion surged in his heart, and a sense of rage surfaced.
"Young Master."
"Hiss." Su Jinmu pulled hard and freed her arms a little.
Li Xin's expression grew increasingly grim, and he instinctively tightened his grip, but the young master in his arms simply turned around and didn't run away.
The boy paused for a moment, then the fierceness around him dissipated, replaced by a docile look as he looked at the young master in his arms.
Su Jinmu was held tightly by him, and in the time it took to turn around, she was almost sweating. She looked at the boy with great interest and tapped the corner of his eye with her fingertip.
moment.
Li Xin lay restlessly on the bed, a long black strip of cloth tied in front of his eyes. He wanted to struggle, but instinctively restrained himself, his breathing erratic.
He couldn't see; the wind blew in through the window, stimulating his nerves. Li Xin's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, his voice hoarse, and the rising desire almost devoured him.
Young master.
Young master.
Why don't you touch him?
"Young Master."
He asked in a low, hoarse voice, "Where are you?"
There were rustling noises in the room, and the sound of something being placed on the table, as if someone had left him to pack up.
Li Xin's breath trembled, his fingertips tightened, instinctively grasping something, wanting to hold the young master tightly, wanting him in front of him, wanting to truly touch the young master.
I don't want to touch the air.
"Young Master."
He let out another muffled cry, unable to contain himself, and sat up, panting, wanting to search.
Suddenly a hand appeared on his chest and pressed him down hard.
With a thud.
The boy fell back onto the bed.
Su Jinmu looked her over approvingly, "What are you shouting for? I'm not leaving."
Li Xin instinctively reached out and firmly gripped his wrist, his voice soft and slow, "I want the young master to accompany me."
“…Is that so?” Su Jinmu looked at him slowly and deliberately.
The boy lay on the bed, his eyes blindfolded, the loose hem of his clothes sinking with gravity, outlining the stone-carved muscle texture beneath.
Flexible yet strong, rising and falling slightly with each breath.
Su Jinmu smiled and brought her fingertips closer.
"Hmm."
Li Xin was burning hot all over, while Su Jinmu's fingertips felt cold. His nerves pounded, his breathing became rapid, he gritted his teeth, and gave an ambiguous smile.
"Young Master is in a very good mood."
"You talk too much," Su Jinmu said casually. "Aren't you thirsty after saying so much?"
He stood up, as if to move, and Li Xin's brow twitched. He instinctively gripped the other's wrist tightly, "Young Master, no—"
"...Hmm."
The two lips touched.
? !
Li Xin paused for a moment, then quickly realized what it was. His expression under the black cloth suddenly became excited, and he quickly licked it with his tongue.
Pressing down on my lips, a slight dampness followed.
Is it water?
No, it's sweet, and very stimulating.
It's wine.
Is he getting into this good mood again?
A good mood doesn't necessarily mean good things will happen.
Li Xin's Adam's apple bobbed deeply, and his tongue darted out, licking the young master's lips and tongue.
Su Jinmu offered him a leisurely ferry drink, and heard the boy's heavy breathing. After the ferry was finished, he was about to get up and leave when he suddenly felt a heavy weight on the back of his neck.
A rough hand pressed down, suddenly exerting force.
"Hmm."
Su Jinmu was caught off guard and fell down, her mouth hitting the boy's, which hurt quite a bit. Before she could even groan, a hand pressed against the back of her neck and drew him close.
His lips were licked, his teeth were pried open, and a scalding breath suddenly invaded, forcefully taking over his lips and tongue, entwining them in an inseparable embrace.
The aroma of wine in Su Jinmu's mouth was completely swallowed. The boy seemed thirsty, or perhaps he was going crazy. His scarlet lips curled up in a strange and alluring way. He pressed one hand against Su Jinmu's neck and the other around his waist, biting him wildly.
Like a hungry demon that has finally bitten someone, it licks and bites wildly, panting, its expression crazed.
"Young Master, Young Master."
Kiss me again.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu laughed speechlessly. He was toying with Li Xin, but somehow Li Xin ended up getting the better of him.
He hasn't played it yet.
Su Jinmu raised her hand and, before the boy could finish speaking, covered his mouth with her breath and sat up.
The wet, hot tip of my tongue immediately brushed against my palm, creating a wet, itchy sensation.
Tsk.
Su Jinmu slapped him on the mouth, "Behave yourself, or I'll tie you up."
"...Hmm."
The boy was panting heavily and instinctively looked up to chase after him.
Su Jinmu pressed her hand against the boy's chest.
He took the initiative last time, and I had a good impression of him.
today……
Su Jinmu approached.
The young master was in high spirits, and in the room, Li Xin was not only excited but also instinctively wary.
He knew beforehand that this sudden burst of good spirits might not necessarily be a good thing.
Li Xin's breathing was heavy, and strange emotions surged in his heart. He gripped the young master's wrist tightly the whole time, and only at the end did he realize that the fair and delicate wrist had been marked with a red mark by his grip.
The brand was imprinted on the skin, making it extremely conspicuous.
.
On the other side, Xu Yu and Xu Sibai sat together, looking thoughtfully at the video on the camera.
Xu Yu and Xu Sibai had asked Su Jinmu to come over again, and he did, but he didn't bring any photos, saying he forgot.
Did he really forget or was he pretending?
Xu Yu frowned slightly.
Xu Sibai pondered, "Yuyu, when you were at the orphanage by the sea, did you directly say that you thought he might be Mumu, right?"
"Hmm." Xu Yu nodded. "More or less."
Xu Sibai pondered, "So Jinmu knew about our subsequent probing and understood it all. Perhaps she felt we were being a bit extreme and went too far, and didn't want to go through all the trouble?"
Xu Yu leaned against the sofa, her expression ordinary. "If he thinks our behavior is excessive, the simplest way is to bring out a photo of us when we were little. Why doesn't he bring one?"
“...That’s true.” Xu Sibai frowned.
"Now that the speculation is out in the open, it would be impolite and inappropriate for us to keep probing like this."
“Let’s just do a DNA comparison…” Xu Sibai pursed his lips. “Take a hair from Jin Mu’s head. If it’s not hers, we won’t test her anymore. We’ll get along well and apologize to Jin Mu in person.”
"in the case of……"
He stopped speaking, lowered his gaze, and clenched his fist.
If so, then all these years of searching...
Finally, there will be a result.
Finally, they were able to reunite.
Not long after.
Xu Yu suddenly visited the Su family.
Su Jinmu was stunned for a few seconds when her parents hurriedly knocked on the door and called her out.
Why did Xu Yu come to the Su family?
He wore a long-sleeved shirt to cover his wrists as he went down to the first floor.
After calling him, Su's parents went downstairs first to chat with Xuyu, their faces beaming with smiles and their demeanor very kind.
"Miss Xu, would you like some water?"
Xu Yu nodded, "Thank you."
Su's father poured a glass of warm water, which Xu Yu took. As she looked up, she saw Su Jinmu coming over and called out to him, "Jinmu."
Su Jinmu: "...???"
Su Jinmu went over curiously, "What are you doing here?"
"You silly child."
Su's father gave him a disapproving smirk, "You have a good relationship with the Xu family and you're always visiting their home. You should have invited them over a long time ago."
"You even made Miss Xu come to your door to wait for you."
Su's father gave him a reproachful yet gentle glance.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Xu Yu: "..."
Xu Yu glanced at Su's father; he was really good at acting. If she hadn't heard Jiang Jing mention before that Su's father treated Su Jinmu differently.
Based on a brief encounter, one would certainly assume he is a loving and considerate father.
Xu Yu gave a faint smile and took a sip of water.
"Could you show me around?"
"sure."
Father Su was very happy. Since the other party was a junior, he didn't want to appear too enthusiastic or overly eager, as that would lower his status. So, he focused all his conversation on Su Jinmu.
Su's father led Xuyu outside and pointed out a large garden and greenhouse in front of them, looking very proud. "These were all planted by Xiaomu. When the flowers bloom, they are so beautiful and colorful."
"Xiao Mu put a lot of effort into these flowers and plants. He basically took care of and cultivated them himself, which was very hard work."
Xu Yu looked around the open-air garden and then glanced into the greenhouse through the glass.
It's well-managed and the plants are cultivated very well.
Xu Yu suddenly remembered something.
Su Jinmu... seems to often attend her mother's open botany classes.
Xu Yu glanced back, her expression indifferent, and asked casually, "When did Jin Mu start liking these plants?"
Su Jinmu: "Yes—"
“From a young age,” Su’s father spoke first, smiling proudly, “she has loved these things since she was little. Originally, the garden was taken care of by servants, but later Xiao Mu took over it herself.”
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu clicked her tongue inwardly, feeling that Xu Yu had come here... with ulterior motives.
Xu Yu smiled faintly, "From childhood? How old are you?"
"Five or six years old."
“Oh…” Xu Yu nodded casually, “And when he was even younger, what did Jin Mu like?”
Su Jinmu: "..."
Father Su: "..."
Su's father, with a smile on his face, calmly replied, "They're all things that boys like, like toy cars and the like."
Xu Yu nodded again and immediately said, "My younger brother sometimes likes these things too, and he misses them quite a bit. Can you show me some of Jin Mu's toys?"
Father Su: "..."
Su Jinmu: "..."
Mr. Su's expression froze for a moment, then he chuckled and said, "It's too early, we can't find it."
"Not a single one was left?" Xu Yu looked at Su's father, seemingly puzzled. "Any one or anything will do."
Father Su chuckled gently, “Haha, they’ve all been donated. Xiao Mu is kind-hearted; she didn’t keep a single item.”
Xu Yu: "…………"
Xu Yu pursed her lips, her light brown pupils silently gazing at Su's father.
Previously, people guessed that Jinmu was Mumu because they looked alike.
Today, this trip to the Su family has brought some rather different discoveries.
This trip was worthwhile.
Xu Yu calmly withdrew her gaze, "Let's go upstairs for a look."
Mr. Su nodded hastily, quickly skipping the topic of toys, and led her upstairs. Xu Yu said, "The third floor, right? Jin Mu can take me upstairs to see it herself. Mr. Su, you can go ahead and get busy."
Mr. Su originally wanted to show his face more, but since the other party had spoken, he couldn't refuse. He nodded and stayed on the first floor without going up.
.
Su Jinmu led Xuyu up to the third floor. After turning the corner of the stairs, she could see different rooms on both sides of the corridor. She pushed open the doors and looked inside, then frowned.
"This is where you have your classes?"
Did Jiang Jing tell you this?
Su Jinmu hummed in agreement, "I don't use it much anymore, I have very few classes lately."
Looking around the numerous and cluttered rooms, Xu Yu could imagine that Su Jinmu's classes were so chaotic and disorganized that she probably didn't even have time to rest.
...Would anyone really treat their own child like this?
Xu Yu's expression darkened slightly, and her demeanor became even colder.
"Please introduce them to me one by one."
Xu Yu stood at the back.
Su Jinmu: "..."
Su Jinmu didn't object. He looked at her for a moment, then turned around and pushed open a door. "This is the piano room. It's very soundproof, so practicing won't disturb anyone."
He calmly walked a little further in, slowly introducing the place, and Xu Yu naturally approached from behind, followed by a faint sound coming from above his head.
...Here it comes.
Su Jinmu lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes partially obscuring her pupils, revealing no luster whatsoever.
...He guessed that Xu Yu's visit today could not possibly be just for simple inquiries.
For a top-tier company like Xujia, decisiveness is inevitable; a mere guess cannot be delayed for long.
There was a slight tugging sensation at the ends of my hair.
In the corner, the door to the small flower room on the third floor opened a crack, then silently closed again, revealing a dark eye behind the crack.
Li Xin was just watering the fruit in the small greenhouse when he heard the noise and looked over.
Did they discover that someone from the Xu family, Xu Yu, was... secretly pulling the young master's hair?
"??"
Li Xin raised an eyebrow, a hint of interest flashing in his eyes.
Like a wild beast that has caught a whiff of blood, a faint smile played on his lips.
The Xu family lost a child.
They suspected... was it the young master?
The young master's mood changed after visiting the Xu family... was it related to this?
On the other side.
Su Jinmu hissed softly, as if he had been pulled in pain. He turned around, covered the back of his head, and frowned slightly as he looked at her.
Xu Yu: "..."
Xu Yu: "…………"
cough.
Xu Yu coughed lightly and glanced to the side.
She tried to retrieve a hair from her collar, but found none; she then tried to feel for a loose hair from her hair, but found none there either.
My hair is in pretty good condition.
Like their family.
It's just embarrassing to be discovered.
Xu Yu pursed her lips and cleared her throat.
“You…” Su Jinmu paused.
Now that she had been discovered, Xu Yu was not one to hesitate. She took a deep breath, her expression calm, and stepped forward directly, "I know this is offensive, but I still want to confirm."
"The Xu family has been searching for people for more than ten years, and we cannot let go of any possibility of suspicion."
Xu Yu looked directly at him, her voice and expression calm, but her demeanor sincere. "Could I have a strand of your hair?"
Su Jinmu: "…………"
That's direct enough.
Su Jinmu looked at her for a while, pursed her lips slightly, and a mix of emotions surged in her heart like ripples on the surface of water.
After a moment, he nodded.
He raised his hand and pulled a single hair from the back of his head... actually from his sleeve.
—Li Xin's hair.
He searched for Xu Yu on the bed the moment he learned she was coming.
At this moment, Li Xin was facing the same direction as Xu Yu, directly opposite Su Jinmu. His dark eyes were fixed on her, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, making it difficult to see clearly.
Su Jinmu handed it over.
Xu Yu slightly curved her lips, a rare occurrence, and rubbed them together with her fingertips, lowering her eyes slightly.
"Actually, I really wish you were my younger brother."
Su Jinmu's ears twitched suddenly. Hearing the other person speak calmly, her fingertips twitched, and her heart clenched slightly.
"...We will find them."
Su Jinmu was stared at by Xu Yu for a while. She pursed her lips, her expression not changing much, but the blood in her body seemed to flow faster, and she felt strangely tense.
Holding the hair, Xu Yu said decisively, "Whether it is or not, the Xu family will always be your support."
Could you please get me another glass of water?
Su Jinmu nodded and went to the bedroom to pour water.
Li Xin knew that Su Jinmu was not the biological son of the Su family, but he had no clue who his biological parents were.
But the Xu family members are of good character, so if that's the case, it's a good thing for the young master.
It's a bit strange, though. If the young master had found his biological parents, he should have been happy.
But his mood before... was clearly not very good.
Su Jinmu went into the bedroom, and Li Xin, calculating the time, came out and went to Xu Yu.
Xu Yu turned her head, saw him, and looked slightly surprised.
She recognized Li Xin; he seemed somewhat familiar.
Can I see your hair?
Li Xin's eyes darkened slightly.
Xu Yu raised an eyebrow, looked him over for a moment, and then handed it to him.
Li Xin looked down, his brows furrowing slightly as a strange feeling welled up inside him.
The hair in his hand was coarse and stiff, unlike the young master's, but more like... his.
How could it resemble his?
Xu Yu glanced at his hair a few times, then thought for a moment, "Does the Su family have any photos of Jin Mu when he was a child? I'd like to see them."
"I don't know."
Li Xin's answer was straightforward.
Xu Yu's expression turned somewhat strange. "Not sure? Birth photo, full-month photo, first-year photo, or kindergarten/primary school entrance photo."
“Jinmu said he is the biological son of the Su family, so it’s impossible that there isn’t a single photo of him.”
"??!!!"
Li Xin's breath hitched, his eyes suddenly turned cold, his brows furrowed, and he gave a cryptic, ambiguous twitch at the corner of his mouth, as if something strange was amiss.
The young master claims he's the Su family's biological son?!
lie.
Why lie?
Something's not right.
An inexplicable emotion welled up in Li Xin's heart. He remembered the day he returned, and the fire snake licking away the last corner of the iron box.
It's a photo.
Li Xin's fingertips tightened slightly, a surge of anger rising up for no reason. His palms felt empty, as if he were grasping at nothing, his thoughts a jumbled mess.
Su Jinmu was about to come out of the bedroom when Li Xin approached the stairs and came down first. His eyes were filled with a deep, dark, and unfathomable darkness.
The young master gave him his hair and burned the photo.
What's the meaning?
He knew he was the youngest son of the Xu family.
But you don't want to admit it?
The Xu family is clearly better off than the Su family, so why not acknowledge it?
Li Xin's Adam's apple bobbed, a chilling sensation suddenly creeping up his spine. His eyes twitched nervously, and he licked his scarlet lips.
The young master denied his anorexia.
P's identity is also not acknowledged.
Now, even his biological parents... don't want to acknowledge him.
Don't be curious, don't ask questions, and don't get close.
Alone and unconcerned.
What does he want to do?
Li Xin twisted his head strangely, like a beast devoid of humanity, exuding a chilling aura. His fingertips twitched eerily, as if swept by an electric current, before revealing a dark, sinister smile.
Horrifying and ferocious.
"Buzz—"
Li Xin's phone vibrated, and he took it out. A message had been sent to his phone.
It was a long time ago that someone was sent to investigate the cause of the young master's snow blindness recurrence.
The location was remote and difficult to find, but now we finally have the answer.
Su Zeya took Su Jinmu to the suburbs and spoke to him for a few minutes.
Ask him—
"Do you want to leave the Su family?"
"??!!"
Leave the Su family?
ha.
Li Xin's lips twitched upwards in a strange way, as if a thunderbolt had struck his head, making every nerve in his body tremble.
The series of information finally connected, and the parts that were hard to understand suddenly became clear.
Why didn't they want to expose the anorexia? Why didn't they want to reveal P's identity? Why didn't they even want to acknowledge their biological parents?
...He wanted to leave the Su family.
He wanted to abandon everything and leave all alone.
He didn't want any of Li Xin either; he wouldn't take any of them with him.
They don't care about any of it.
He's going to run!
Li Xin's lips suddenly curled up, his smile sinister and eerie. With his dark eyebrows and scarlet lips, he looked exactly like a man-eating demon.
He was extremely violent, terrifyingly paranoid, and laughed maniacally.
We need to run.
ha.
He took a step and slowly climbed the steps.
As soon as Xu Yu came downstairs, Su Jinmu poured him some water and then said that she wasn't feeling well and told her to go back first.
Xu Yu saw Li Xin and said, "Jin Mu said he's not feeling well, go up and check on him."
uncomfortable?
Li Xin ignored her and gently stepped up the stairs. Was he experiencing emotional turmoil?
When I decided to leave Xujia behind, I experienced emotional turmoil.
When you decided to leave him, did you hesitate even for a moment?
Young master.
His young master.
Li Xin's lips curled into a sinister smile.
In the room, Su Jinmu curled up on the bed, her brows furrowed, her breath growing hotter and hotter, her panting becoming increasingly heavy.
He thought he had completely come to terms with it, but the moment he handed over the strand of hair, his mind was still in complete turmoil.
Su Jinmu buried her head in the quilt, her eyelashes trembling slightly, her whole body feeling as if it were burning.
In an instant, his jumbled thoughts twisted into desire, assaulting his mind.
I feel terrible.
...Where is Li Xin?
"Squeak."
The movement was as subtle as a ghost.
The door was pushed open, then gently closed and locked, step by step, slowly and deliberately.
The person stepped over, stood by the bed, and gently knelt down, staring at the handsome young master buried in the quilt, his face displaying a terrifyingly gentle curve.
"Young Master."
"I'm back."
"Does the young master miss me?"
Su Jinmu's consciousness was hazy, like boiling on a flame. She opened her eyes and looked over the covers, seeing a familiar figure.
He raised his hand and grasped the other person's hand, only to have his wrist instantly wrapped around and tightly bound.
The rough fingertips scraped against the delicate skin inside the wrist, sending a terrifying shiver down the spine.
"...Ugh..."
Su Jinmu's body trembled and tensed, her slender neck tilted back, her breathing unsteady, and her fingertips trembling slightly.
...Li Xin.
He tried to pull his hand away, but the steel bars binding his wrist held him tightly.
A shadow seemed to loom over me, and the voice was low and slow, like the tender whispers of lovers.
Yet it carried with it a chilling, terrifying quality.
"Young Master."
Su Jinmu heard a buzzing sound in her ears, her breath grew hotter, and she grabbed the boy with her other hand and pulled him down.
"Get into bed."
The boy obediently climbed up, like a ghostly figure. Su Jinmu was panting heavily and wanted to pull him closer, but in an instant, her wrists were pinned to her sides and her waist was restrained, making her unable to move.
"Hmm..."
He was burning with pain from the burn, his desire raging, "Help me."
The boy leaned closer, his cheek nuzzling intimately against the large, blushing hollow of the boy's neck, his cool, scarlet tongue licking the boy's rosy lips.
His eyes were crazed, his whole body was filled with hostility, he laughed strangely, and his voice was soft and slow.
"Young Master, say you love me."
"I'm telling you, I won't leave you."
