The pretty little follower gets targeted by the crazy guys at the elite academy

Li Ruo's eyes stung a little.

She reached out and gently wrapped her arms around his waist, a gesture that made Zhou Si's body tremble violently.

"Zhou Si".

She called his name and said softly, "I'm back."

Zhou Si looked down at her.

Under the moonlight, her eyes shone as brightly as shattered starlight, reflecting his image.

He suddenly felt that his five-year wait had been worthwhile.

"Li Ruo".

Zhou Si's voice was hoarse: "Do you even know what I want to do right now?"

Li Ru blinked: "What do you want to do?"

Zhou Si looked into her innocent eyes, into the face he had longed for day and night for five years, and then he smiled gently.

That smile was both crazy and wild, carrying a hint of a roguishness that had been suppressed for too long:

"I want to lock you up."

"I'll keep you locked up by my side, locked up for life, so you'll never run away again."

Li Ruo raised an eyebrow: "Lock me up?"

Zhou Si leaned closer to her, their noses almost touching:

"I'll lock you up for life. You won't be able to go anywhere; you'll have to stay by my side."

"I'll buy you breakfast every day, feed you, buy you pretty dresses and beautiful jewelry every day, and bathe and wash your hair every day."

"I'll spoil you rotten, so much so that you'll never look at anyone else again."

"Then……"

He paused, a dangerous smile curving his lips:

"I'll bully you every day, until you cry."

Li Ruo was amused by him: "Bully me? Can you beat me?"

Zhou Si's face darkened.

Oh shit.

That brat, she always brings up the very thing she shouldn't have said.

The scene from five years ago when she tied his hands behind his back is still a psychological trauma for him.

"If I can't beat you, then I'll..."

He paused, his eyes darkening. Then he suddenly reached out and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Li Ruo felt a tightness around her waist, and he lifted her up.

The next second, her slender, straight legs lifted off the ground, and she hung on him.

Zhou Si supported her hips with his hands, holding her firmly against his waist and abdomen.

He looked up at her, his deep eyes burning with intensity in the moonlight.

"How about this?"

His voice grew increasingly deep and hoarse, carrying a hint of triumphant smugness:

"I can't beat you, but I can easily lift you up like this."

"Why are you setting it up like that?"

Li Ruo was supported by him, her hands resting on his shoulders, looking down at him.

Zhou Si tilted his chin slightly upwards, gazing at her with intense emotions surging in his eyes:

"I'll lift you up...and kiss you."

He paused, the tips of his ears turning slightly red, but a roguish smile curled at the corners of his mouth:

"I'll lift you up and bully you. I'll lift you up so you can't run anywhere."

Looking into his serious eyes, and seeing his crazy, wild, and roguish demeanor as he spoke, Li Ruo's heart beat even faster.

"Zhou Si," she called his name softly again.

"Um?"

"Put me down."

"I won't let go."

Zhou Si tightened his arms around her, pulling her closer into his embrace:

"I'll never let it go in my lifetime."

Looking at the stubborn, ruthless, and domineering look in his eyes, Li Ruo suddenly lowered her head and gently placed a kiss on his forehead.

Zhou Si was stunned for a moment.

Then she leaned her head back slightly, looking into his eyes: "Can I let go now?"

Zhou Si's Adam's apple bobbed, and his ears turned even redder, but he remained defiant:

"No way! A kiss on the forehead doesn't count!"

Li Ruo raised an eyebrow: "Then where does the kiss count?"

Zhou Si's gaze fell on her moist, full lips: "Here. Only kissing here counts."

Li Ruo looked at his stubborn eyes and reddened ear tips, watched his Adam's apple bob, and saw that he was about to lose control but was still stubbornly refusing to admit it.

She smiled, then lowered her head and kissed his lips.

This time it wasn't just a light peck, but a deep kiss with real, tender touch.

Zhou Si's mind went blank for a second, and he stood there frozen, letting her kiss him.

Her lips were very soft.

It was as soft as the strawberries she ate five years ago—no, even softer, more fragrant, and sweeter than strawberries.

Her breathing was very light, as light as the sound of cherry blossoms falling around her.

She had a faint citrus scent, and a subtle, almost imperceptible sweetness that silently seduced him.

This is the taste he has been craving for five years; it is his dream, it is everything to him.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Ruo let go of him.

She looked at him, at his dumbfounded expression, and smiled, her eyes crinkling.

"Is that enough?"

Zhou Si looked into her eyes, which were now filled with unrestrained laughter, and watched her shimmer in the moonlight.

He truly felt that his life had been worthwhile.

"not enough."

His voice was hoarse, and his eyes were red: "A lifetime isn't enough."

Li Ruo was stunned for a moment, then she reached out and gently cupped his face in her hands:

"Okay, stop fooling around, I'm back, and I'm not leaving this time."

Zhou Si stared at her for a long, long time before burying his face in the crook of her neck, his shoulders trembling slightly.

Li Ruo felt warm tears sliding down her neck.

She did not speak.

She gently stroked the back of his head, as if comforting a wounded wild animal.

Moonlight shone on them, and cherry blossom petals fluttered down.

Five years of waiting, five years of searching, five years of despair, all melted into the warmth of this embrace at this moment.

It took Zhou Si a long time to raise his head. His eyes were red, but full of light.

His low, husky voice carried an unprecedented seriousness:

"Listen, you brat, I've decided on you for life. If you run away once, I'll find you; if you run away for the rest of your life, I'll find you for the rest of my life. And if you dare to run away again..."

A roguish, wicked smile curled at the corner of his lips:

"I'm not kidding, I really will lock you in the bed and keep you by my side for the rest of my life."

Li Ruo rolled her eyes: "Here we go again. Is this all the school bully you've got?"

Zhou Si raised an eyebrow: "So what if that's all the ambition you've got? That's enough to keep you busy for the rest of your life."

Li Ruo smiled slightly again: "A lifetime of toil? With your abilities... that's enough... um!"

Zhou Si didn't give her a chance to continue.

He lowered his head and kissed her lips fiercely.

This was not a gentle kiss; it was a kiss filled with five years of longing and pain, an extremely frantic kiss.

Brutal, fierce, and with a tearing, biting connotation.

He bit her lips, bit her tongue, as if he wanted to devour her whole.

Li Ruo was breathless from his kiss, but she did not push him away.

She simply raised her hand and gently wrapped it around his neck.

This action made Zhou Si's body tremble violently, and then his kiss became a little gentler.

It was no longer about tearing and biting, but rather a kind of piety that came from something lost and then regained.

He kissed her lips, the corners of her eyes, and her neck.

"Li Ruo..."

He murmured her name, his voice hoarse and barely audible:

"Li Ruo... Li Ruo... Li Ruo..."

again and again.

It's as if they're making up for all the times they didn't call out in the past five years.

Li Ruo's heart softened when he called her that.

After the kiss, Zhou Si's fingers gently stroked her face, her eyebrows, her eyes, her nose, and her lips.

They scrutinized every inch, as if confirming that she was real.

"Damn... your skin is still so moisturized and bouncy, how come you haven't changed at all?"

His voice was hoarse again, filled with curiosity and great doubt.

There's a saying that goes, "Time never defeats a beautiful woman!"

Li Ruo revealed a sly smile, like a little kitten:

"I am that beauty!"

Looking at her expression, Zhou Si felt both angry and amused.

That brat.

He disappeared for five years, and when he came back, he still had that arrogant and conceited attitude.

He lowered his head and bit her lip again.

"hiss……"

Li Ruo winced in pain and glared at him, "Are you a dog?!"

Looking at her fierce expression, Zhou Si finally smiled triumphantly, a smile more radiant than it had been five years ago.

"I wasn't born in the Year of the Dog, I was born in the Year of the Wolf."

His voice was low and husky, carrying a hint of danger:

"It's specifically designed to bite disobedient little rabbits like you."

Li Ruo rolled her eyes: "You're the rabbit, your whole family are rabbits."

Zhou Si remained silent.

His gaze hardened as he watched her roll her eyes, her fierce expression, and her vibrant, genuine personality.

His eyes reddened again.

He called her name over and over again, afraid that it was a dream and that she would be gone again when he woke up.

"Li Ruo, Li Ruo... Li Ruo... Ruo Ruo... Ruo Ruo..."

Then he pulled her into his arms, holding her so tightly it was as if he wanted to meld her into his bones.

Li Ruo was choked so tightly she could hardly breathe, but she didn't struggle. She just raised her hand and gently wrapped it around his waist.

"Zhou Si".

She nestled in his arms, her voice soft: "I'm sorry for making you wait so long."

Zhou Si remained silent.

He just hugged her tighter, and after a long while he finally spoke in a muffled voice:

"You know that now, but you'll have to make it up to me later."

Li Ruo smiled: "How will you compensate me?"

Zhou Si loosened his grip on her slightly, looking at her with burning emotions surging in his eyes.

"How will you compensate me?"

His low, seductive voice carried a hint of roguish charm:

"You'll make it up to me for the rest of your life."

"There are 24 hours in a day, 60 minutes in an hour, and 60 seconds in a minute. Every single second must be mine."

"I told you to go east, but you can't go... Never mind, that rule is null and void."

"I'll let you laugh, but you can't cry. Fine, fine, cry if you want to cry, laugh if you want to laugh, I'm willing to indulge you."

"I'm asking you to kiss me, you can't refuse..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Ruo tiptoed and kissed him on the lips.

Zhou Si was stunned.

Li Ruo took a half step back, smiling like a little fox: "Is this enough?"

Zhou Si's Adam's apple bobbed.

He looked into her bright, sparkling eyes, and the sly smile on her lips suddenly seemed greedy and audacious.

"not enough."

His voice was incredibly hoarse: "Again."

Li Ruo laughed out loud, her laughter echoing through the cherry blossom grove, as light as falling petals.

"Zhou Si, don't push your luck."

"I'm going to push my luck, so what?"

He lowered his head to kiss her again.

Li Ruo reached out and covered his mouth: "Wait, it looks like someone passed by over there... Ah!"

Zhou Si frowned and interrupted her: "Wait for what? I've been waiting for five years!"

He kissed her again.

After they had kissed enough, he held her and excitedly spun her around in the cherry blossom grove:

"Damn, I'm so happy tonight! So excited!"

Li Ruo felt dizzy from being spun around, and patted his shoulder, saying, "Zhou Si, put me down! I'm dizzy, put me down quickly!"

"I won't let go! I'll never let go in my entire life!"

"Zhou Si!"

"Call me husband!"

"……roll!"

"I'm not leaving! I'm not an egg, I'm not leaving in my entire life!"

Under the moonlight, in the cherry blossom grove, the laughter of two people drifted away on the wind.

After five years of waiting, this moment has finally arrived; after five years of longing, a response has finally been given.

Zhou Si's hand was still around Li Ruo's waist, and the feeling of regaining what he had lost made his whole body burn.

But he didn't have time to indulge in it.

Because the five footsteps were getting closer and closer.
