Seeing that Yu Le remained silent, Liu Xiaoli tilted her head, her usually aloof phoenix eyes curving into two crescents, revealing an undisguised smugness.

"How is it?"

She stretched out a finger and tapped the red booklet on Yu Le's chest, her tone soft and slightly boastful.

"Aren't you so moved you want to cry? Don't you feel your life has been worthwhile? Don't you want to immediately repay my great kindness with your body?"

Yu Le didn't say anything.

He simply twirled the two keys between his fingers, while his other hand naturally wrapped around her slender waist, pulling her slightly closer to him.

Liu Xiaoli gasped in surprise, and was pulled forward, staggering a step until she was pressed firmly against him.

"move?"

Yu Le lowered his head, his nose almost touching hers, his warm breath spraying onto her face, carrying a dangerous aura.

"Teacher Liu, do you seem to have some misunderstanding about the word 'surprise'?"

Liu Xiaoli blinked, and that "clear-eyed stupidity" resurfaced, clearly unaware of the impending danger.

"Shouldn't I be moved? This is the biggest amount of money I've ever spent in my life!"

"It was quite touching."

Yu Le gave a forced, insincere smile.

"But I'd like to take stock of another matter."

He released her hand, and before Liu Xiaoli could react, his other hand had already wrapped around her waist. With a little effort, he lifted her up like a sack of potatoes.

The world spun around.

Liu Xiaoli was terrified, her face paling. She flailed her arms wildly, finally grabbing tightly onto Yu Le's clothes from behind.

"Yu Le! What are you doing! Put me down!"

Yu Le ignored her and strode towards the bedroom.

The two-meter-wide European-style bed lay there quietly, the mattress looking very expensive, with top-notch elasticity and support.

boom.

The person was thrown onto the bed.

Immediately afterwards, the tall figure pressed down.

"Is this why you're still acting tough during this dangerous time? Hmm?"

"You don't take good care of yourself, making me worry? Hmm?"

"You want me to fly back from thousands of kilometers away in the middle of the night? Huh?"

With each question, he would lightly pat her bottom.

It wasn't very forceful, but it was extremely insulting.

"Teacher Liu, how do you plan to make amends for this?"

Nestled in his arms, listening to his strong heartbeat, Liu Xiaoli's initial shyness and panic strangely subsided.

She reached out and hooked her arm around Yu Le's neck, gently stroking the soft flesh on the back of his neck with her fingers, a charming smile playing on her lips.

"So how do you want to compensate me?"

She leaned close to Yu Le's ear, her breath sweet as orchids.

"How about paying with sex?"

Fairy.

This is definitely an ancient demon who has cultivated for thousands of years.

He usually seems aloof and abstinent, but in private, he drives faster than anyone else; the wheels even ran over his face.

"You said it yourself."

Yu Le slowly unbuttoned his coat and casually tossed it onto the carpet, his eyes gleaming with fury.

"Don't beg for mercy later."

Liu Xiaoli lay on the soft bedding, her long hair disheveled and her clothes slightly open.

She looked up at the young, aggressive man above her, her eyes glistening with tears.

"cut."

She stretched out her leg and gently rubbed it against Yu Le's calf, raising her eyebrows provocatively.

"Whoever begs for mercy is a little dog."

The battle broke out instantly.

It turns out.

Flags are things that are set up to be knocked down.

This is an unequal battle.

On one side is a budding young man, full of malice and pent-up desire; on the other is a mature woman, clearly in the wrong, whose defenses have crumbled.

The air in the bedroom warmed up rapidly.

Sunlight streamed through the sheer curtains, casting dappled shadows on the floor.

Liu Xiaoli initially tried to resist, using her basic dance skills to try and use her flexibility to defuse Yu Le's offensive.

But she forgot.

In the face of absolute power, all skills are mere window dressing.

"Hmm... Yu Le... are you a dog...?"

"Wrong, it's a wolf."

"Be gentle...this dress is very expensive..."

"Buy another one if it breaks."

"No...not there..."

"Protest invalid."

The once tidy new bedroom was quickly turned into a chaotic battlefield.

The pillow was thrown on the floor, and the blanket was rolled into a ball.

Liu Xiaoli's pitiful reserve and arrogance had long been thrown to the winds under Yu Le's wave after wave of attacks.

She was like a small boat, bobbing up and down in the raging waves, clinging tightly to the only piece of driftwood on her body.

Stubborn?

nonexistent.

If Yu Le can still be stubborn at this point, it only means that he has been drinking goji berries for nothing all this time.

Time slipped away quietly in the ambiguous atmosphere.

It started at 11 a.m. and lasted until 1 p.m.

The sunlight moved from the east to the west, bathing the entire room in a golden glow.

The battle finally came to an end.

Liu Xiaoli was already exhausted.

She was like a cat whose bones had been removed, curled up in the blankets, with only half her face and a smooth, rounded shoulder showing.

His breathing was long and heavy, clearly indicating that he was extremely exhausted.

That face, which always wore exquisite makeup, was now bare, yet it exuded a rosy glow and languidness from within.

Yu Le reached out and tucked the blanket around her, finally filling the emptiness in her heart.

"Gurgle—"

An untimely noise shattered the warmth of the moment.

Yu Le touched her flat stomach.

I haven't had a drop of water since midnight last night, and I've been doing such high-intensity "aerobic exercise." Even a person made of iron couldn't withstand that.

He gently pulled his arm, which was being used as a pillow by Liu Xiaoli, away.

The moment he moved, the person in his arms let out a soft groan and instinctively reached out to grab him, until they hugged his waist again. Only then did they snuggle against him contentedly and continue sleeping.

Yu Le froze.

Looking at that unguarded sleeping face, he sighed and lay back down.

Forget it.

Go hungry.

This clingy big cat is clearly more important than food.

……

at the same time.

More than a thousand kilometers away.

Film crew at Dafosi Temple, Xinchang, Zhejiang.

The midday sun was as scorching as a stepmother, relentlessly baking this mountain valley.

The air was filled with the greasy smell of boxed lunches, mixed with dust and sweat; the smell was simply awful.

Liu Qianqian moved a small stool and sat in the shadow of the nanny van, holding a boxed lunch she had just received.

Braised eggplant, shredded potatoes, and a few pieces of fatty braised pork belly.

Normally, if she saw this braised pork, her eyes would light up with joy.

But today.

She picked up her chopsticks, poked at the trembling piece of fat, and let out a long sigh.

"well……"

Yang Nuo, who was helping her adjust her costume, stopped what she was doing, her round face full of confusion.

"What's wrong, Sisi? Doesn't the meat smell good today? This is a 'special edition' that I specially asked the chef to save for you!"

Liu Qianqian pushed the lunchbox aside, rested her chin on her hands, and gazed at the rolling mountains in the distance, her eyes filled with a melancholy like that of a left-behind child.

"Sister Nuonuo, tell me... what exactly did Yu Le do?"

Yang Nuo thought for a moment, then placed the box of braised pork that had been rejected in front of her, and mumbled something indistinctly:

"Didn't the boss send a text message saying he was going back to Beijing to escort her? I guess Aunt Liu has some urgent business to attend to."

"Is it urgent?"

Liu Qianqian wrinkled her delicate little nose.

"What could be so urgent?"

She imagined a whole drama unfolding in her mind.

Could it be that a thief broke into the house?

Or did the SARS virus mutate and create zombies, and Yu Le go back to save the world?

Or is it……

"Sister Nuonuo, what do you say...?"

Liu Qianqian suddenly lowered her voice and whispered mysteriously in Yang Nuo's ear.

"Could Yu Le have secretly gone back to the capital to enjoy some good food behind my back?"
