Transmigrated as the male lead's roommate's vicious girlfriend

Ning Xi covered her neck, which was itchy from the heat of his skin, and pulled away from him in annoyance: "He Kezhou, are you a dog? Why do you like rubbing against people so much!"

He Kezhou pinched her puffed-up cheek with his fingertips, his dark eyes gleaming with amusement: "If so, can I rub it against you?"

Ning Xi's eyes widened, and she stood with her hands on her hips, puffing out her cheeks angrily: "You bastard!"

He Kezhou hooked her waist as she left, pulled her back onto his lap, and whispered a "woof" in her ear.

Ning Xi: "!!!"

She looked like she'd seen a ghost.

Even though it was He Kezhou who imitated a dog barking, she didn't know why her face was burning hot, as if heat was rising from the top of her head.

He Kezhou gently rubbed the spot where she had bumped into something yesterday.

Ning Xi felt a sudden numbness in her spine, as if a fine electric current was coursing through her entire body. Her shoulders trembled involuntarily, and her tense body went limp uncontrollably.

She shrank back, not letting He Kezhou's palm touch her waist again.

He Kezhou frowned slightly: "Does it hurt a lot?"

Ning Xi was stunned when she met He Kezhou's concerned dark eyes.

He Kezhou's gaze fell on her waist. "I'll be gentle. If it hurts, just yell."

Ning Xi grabbed He Kezhou's hand that was massaging her waist, "I don't want you to massage it."

He Kezhou noticed her subtle unusual reaction and assumed that she did not trust his methods.

"I won't hurt you."

Ning Xi felt that her body was far too sensitive.

She told herself, "Why not take advantage of a free massage therapist?"

Her back tensed up involuntarily.

He Kezhou's finger technique really relieved her back pain.

The air became very still.

He Kezhou lowered his eyes, his gaze fixed on the injured area on her lower back. His long eyelashes concealed any extraneous emotions, and his expression was calm and focused.

Ning Xi turned her head to look at He Kezhou.

He Kezhou's jawline was taut and sharp, his usual coldness gone, his mind completely focused on the kneading motion under his hands. Noticing her gaze, he looked up and glanced at her.

Ning Xi pursed her lips slightly.

This was the first time she had been taken care of so meticulously.

She wasn't used to people being too nice to her.

The knocking broke the silence inside.

Ning Xi pushed He Kezhou's hand away at the right moment, avoided his gaze, and said in a very soft voice, "He Kezhou, stop rubbing, my back doesn't hurt as much anymore."

He Kezhou stood up and gently brushed his fingertips across her eyelids, trying to wipe away the listlessness in her eyes.

"I ordered you seafood congee and fried dumplings with omelets. Eat something before you go to sleep."

Ning Xi had just eaten six or seven mangosteens, and her hunger had been relieved considerably.

He Kezhou went to open the door to get the takeout.

Ning Xi stared at his back and slapped her forehead hard.

Wake up, Ning Xi. Guard your heart and recognize your own identity.

If He Kezhou were an ordinary person, she would have fallen for him. But since she knew that He Kezhou's identity and status were extraordinary, and that there was a world of difference in their social classes, she shouldn't have harbored any improper thoughts.

Ning Xi sounded a warning bell in her heart.

She's only staying temporarily. Once she's made amends to He Kezhou and saved enough money, she'll leave.

She will then find a livable coastal city and live a peaceful life.

When He Kezhou brought in the takeout, Ning Xi suppressed her emotions and smiled as she took the takeout from him.

"My boyfriend is so considerate."

He Kezhou helped her open the seafood porridge and fried dumpling box.

Ning Xi looked at the single-serving takeout order and asked He Kezhou, "Aren't you eating?"

He Kezhou placed the porridge in front of her. "You've already eaten dinner."

Ning Xi nodded and didn't say anything more.

She ate quietly.

He Kezhou ordered a light meal, with small portions, and the fried dumplings weren't heavily oiled, spicy, or vinegary.

It actually tastes very good.

Perhaps because she was too tired, Ningxi had a poor appetite and left a lot of food uneaten.

Adhering to the principle of not wasting food, she tried her best to finish it.

He Kezhou took the chopsticks from her hand, "If you can't eat, then don't eat."

Ning Xi's dejection was not well hidden.

He Kezhou put down his chopsticks, leaned slightly towards her, and placed his fingertips on her neck.

Ning Xi looked up, bewildered.

Noticing the heavy weight on her neck, she lowered her head.

A finely crafted gold compass rested steadily on her chest.

Its weight and size are no less than thirty grams.

Ning Xi slammed her hand on the table. "He Kezhou, you're such a spendthrift! Just because you have a little money, you want to squander it all?"

He Kezhou gazed at her eyes and brows, which had become more vibrant with anger, a hint of a smile in his eyes.

"I'll buy you a gift, but I won't be wasteful."

Ning Xi stood with her hands on her hips, her eyes showing no joy at receiving the gift, but rather anger: "He Kezhou, I used to be vain, always greedy and wanting things beyond my means, making you live a very tiring life. Now I've figured it out. I'll only spend the money I'm capable of earning, and I don't want anything beyond my means."

He Kezhou grabbed Ning Xi's hand as she was about to return the money, saying, "If you don't like these, I'll buy you new ones."

"I'll earn money for you to spend, it's not tiring."

"If you're unhappy at work, find another one. Even if you don't work, you won't become useless."

"You can learn things that interest you and do what you love."

Previously, Ningxi was very interested in beauty products, eyelash extensions, and nail art. Every time she saw travel photos on other people's WeChat Moments, she couldn't hide her envy.

He Kezhou grabbed Ning Xi's hand and took the money he had transferred to her.

Ning Xi, clutching her phone, felt a burning sensation from He Kezhou's earnest, dark gaze.

He Kezhou never just said things he didn't mean.

Ning Xi remained quiet for a long time.

She lowered her eyelids. "He Kezhou, you gave me a gift. I'll wear a pretty dress to show you."

He Kezhou pinched Ning Xi's cheeks, making her mouth bubble like a goldfish.

"Take a shower, go to sleep, I have to go to work tomorrow."

Ning Xi pouted after being rejected.

She forcefully pushed away He Kezhou's hand that was pinching her face, leaving him with a cold back of his head, and went back to her room to get clothes and take a shower.

He Kezhou looked down and tugged at his pants.

Ning Xi's words elicited a reaction from him almost instantly.

He Kezhou sat down on the sofa and remained there for a long time.

Ning Xi walked past the living room sofa without looking at anyone else and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

The sound of running water in the bathroom stopped, and after a few minutes, the white noise of a hairdryer could be heard.

The music playing from Ning Xi's phone clearly reached He Kezhou's ears.

There were also a few urgent message beeps during this time.

Ning Xi turned off the hairdryer and opened the bathroom door to let out the heat.

She brushed past He Kezhou as he came out of the room carrying clothes, pretending not to see him.

He Kezhou grabbed Ning Xi's hand, "Wear it for me tomorrow night."

Ning Xi ignored him.

He Kezhou pressed his forehead against her brow. "I want to see."

Ning Xi slammed her head against his forehead.

He Kezhou made a precise prediction and placed his palm on her forehead, preventing her from getting hurt.

Ning Xi pushed He Kezhou into the bathroom. "He Kezhou, you've changed! I'm not attractive to you anymore when I wear pretty dresses."

He Kezhou looked at her.

Ning Xi: "If you want to see it, just tell me honestly and I'll make it happen. I like it when you're honest."

He Kezhou did something even more honest in the bathroom.

Ning Xi knew nothing about this, only that He Kezhou had been taking a long time to take a bath lately.

She lay in bed, turned on her phone, and clicked on her aunt's WeChat profile picture.

Ningxi called and messaged her aunt in the afternoon, but received no reply.

Ning Xi was extremely annoyed by the messages from Cheng Rou and the friend requests from Wen Jingyan.

Upon seeing the message that Cheng Rou had returned her lunch, she immediately transferred the money to Cheng Rou via Alipay and then blocked her Alipay account.

Along with blocking Cheng Rou's WeChat account, he also blocked her account.

She went into settings and enabled WeChat friend request permissions.

The phone finally got some peace and quiet.

Ning Xi prepared to turn off her phone and go to sleep.

A multimedia message suddenly popped up at the top of the screen, originating from a completely unfamiliar number.

She casually tapped on the large image with her fingertip, and the next instant, a glaring and filthy scene unexpectedly entered her field of vision.

A wave of nausea suddenly surged through Ning Xi's heart. She suppressed the discomfort in her throat, her fingertips stiffened slightly, and she swiped open the second picture.

The photo is blurry, but it's clear that it's a candid photo taken up a skirt.

Without a second thought, Ning Xi instantly confirmed that the maliciously suspicious unfamiliar number belonged to Cheng Yue.

The moment He Kezhou entered the room, Ning Xi hid her phone almost without thinking.
