Chapter 1: As a Teacher
Su Wen quietly found a pack of cigarettes in her drawer.
Her beautiful brows suddenly frown.
Put the cigarettes on the desk.
Jing Jing came into the room carrying juice, she froze, flustered, and closed the door in a panic.
"Miss Su, I, I..."
"Go on, I'll let you explain."
......
Ten minutes later.
Su Wen, who persuaded Jing Jing to tell her the truth, smiled gently and said, "Jing Jing, it's okay, don't be afraid, I won't tell your parents."
"Thank you, thank you, Miss Su!" Jing Jing gratefully bent over.
"At your age, it's normal to fall in love, but the fact that it's interfering with your studies is one of the things that upsets me."
Su Wen took out an English test paper, "Your English score is still ten points lower than last time, even if I don't take the initiative to bring it up, your mother will find out, what are you going to do then?"
"It's okay, I signed up for a dance class and my mother was so happy, I told her about my English grades and she told me to just bring them up next time."
Jing Jing has said so, Su Wen isn't going to continue to be bothered. On the surface she continues to gently lecture her, but inside she is extremely upset.
—————————
In this way, for a month in a row, instead of improving, Jing Jing's grades fell sharply.
"Miss Su, I'm sorry."
"It's not me you're sorry for, you've got three months to go before your entrance exams, you'll be sorry for yourself if you continue like this!"
"I know, but Miss Su, you should understand me, I want to go to the same college as him, but he didn't do well, so I had to do worse to be with him..."
Silly, stupid!
Su Wen was so angry that her head was smoking. With a soft smile displayed on her face she said, "This guy you're talking about, is he really that good to make you give up so much?"
Jing Jing smiled shyly and said, "Yes, I confessed to him a month ago, he didn't reject me, he gave me a chance to prove my feelings for him. I just have to try a little harder and get closer to him, and now he's accompanying me home..."
"What about your parents? Are they going to let you go on like this..."
"I can't be bothered about them anymore. Mingxu said that I am already 18 years old and shouldn't be a good baby to my parents. They control me too much."
"Jing Jing, if, and I mean if, what would it take for you to give up this Mingxu..."
"I won't give up on him! Teacher, don't you agree with my feelings for Mingxu?!" Jing Jing's mood is a little intense.
Su Wen sighed inwardly, "Jing Jing, haven't you ever thought about it? This person may have no feelings for you at all!"
"Impossible! I have never thought about it, and I never will!"
"There's nothing impossible in the world, and if he's really just playing with you, what will you do then?" Su Wen's solemn demeanor made the originally determined Jing Jing suddenly have doubts about her way of thinking, and this doubt made her panic inside, "I...If... Mingxu doesn't like me, I, I...will give up...I am not a person who pesters others!"
"Okay, remember what you said."
......
Su Wen returned to her humble apartment, and threw her books onto the table with a bang."I'm pissed! I'm so pissed! Where the hell did this Mingxu pop out of? Damn it, damn it!"
With that, she wailed and flung herself onto the bed.
"Sister's high salary, ah!"
I shouldn't have vowed in front of Jing Jing's parents that I would raise Jing Jing's English entrance exam score by 30 points, or I wouldn't accept getting paid, ah!
At this rate, don't mention triple pay, it would be nice not to be swept out by Jing Jing's parents!
"I just want to earn a decent living from my own labor, why is it so hard!"
Su Wen sat up from the bed, as if she had suddenly made some kind of decision, she said firmly: "I can't give up, now I just have to kick the obstacle 'Mingxu' out of the away."
———————
Su Wen took off her glasses and wiped off the tan powder on her face, revealing her original white, tender and smooth skin. She took off the old-fashioned rose red wig on her head, and her black, soft, shiny hair that reached her waist streamed down like water past her shoulders.
Su Wen casually pushed her hair behind her ears, gently tearing off the wrinkles sticking to her forehead, and to the corners of her eyes with her hands, and took off the cosmetic contact lenses that were used to narrow her pupils. A pair of black and shiny eyes appeared in the mirror. Using scissors she cut her bangs.
Then she changed into a light blue skirt. In front of the mirror she smoothly turned around. Her temperament changed, she no longer looked like a 30-something steady, gentle and ordinary female teacher, but a young girl of absolute beauty.
———————-"Hey, Mingxu, why didn't your little girlfriend come today?" A teasing voice sounded in Shen Mingxu's ear.
Shen Mingxu frowned: "She's not my girlfriend."
Qi Xuan smiled and said, "She likes you so much, why don't you respond?"
Shen Mingxu's mouth curled up in a sneer, and his dark eyes glanced at him, saying, "Oh, that girl."
"What happened to that girl? Good-looking and cute, seems like a good girl, rare for a girl like her to learn to smoke and drink."
Shen Mingxu shook his glass casually, the ice cubes in the glass collided against each other, making a crisp sound, "You say this as if I let her learn badly."
"What? Didn't you say to her, you like girls who can smoke and drink?"
Shen Mingxu pulled out a reluctant smile, "A troublesome dog skin plaster, chased me from the school to the bar. I just wanted her to back off, who would've thought that she'd really go smoke and drink?"
"Then doesn't that prove that she really loves you?"
"True love? I never noticed her in school, and I never said a word to her, so how did her love for me come about?"
Shen Mingxu pointed to his face: "Her true love should be for my face!"
"Haha!" Qi Xuan laughed and said: "Your face is also you ah, rounding up its true love!"
"Haha!" Shen Mingxu rolled his eyes and put his hands on the sofa. When he was about to stretch out his body, he saw a young girl leaning closely on the glass window.
A girl so beautiful, words are hard to describe her.
Shen Mingxu, who had wondered if he was asexual, had finally decided on his sexual orientation today, and he also knew what his ideal match looked like.
Chapter 2: Su Ning
Shen Mingxu was stunned for about two seconds, until he suddenly realized that the girl outside the glass window was gesturing at him with her hand. Shen Mingxu, who had always been casual, felt for the first time that his appearance of lying on the sofa was embarrassing, he quickly fixed his sitting posture.
Shen Mingxu pointed to the door of the bar, but the girl shook her head, her hand kept pointing to the table in front of Shen Mingxu, a decorative object, without any sense of existence......Chocolate cake!
The girl pointed to the cake and shook the two brand new hundred dollar bills she was holding, her meaning obvious.
She wants to buy the cake with money...
Shen Mingxu looked at Qi Xuan, who was watching the show, and Qi Xuan said generously: "Let her come in and eat, I'll buy another one for Ling Ling later."
"Thanks."
Shen Mingxu got up and strode out.
However, he didn't see the person he was thinking of.
Out of nowhere a sense of panic swept through his heart, people have disappeared, will never see again, he doesn't even know her name... No, it can't be like this!
In just a few steps Shen Mingxu ran to the corner in front, and saw the blue figure slowly walking away with her head bowed in frustration.
Shen Mingxu stepped forward and grabbed her hand, warm and soft, as delicate as cotton. Shen Mingxu unconsciously relaxed his grip, but was reluctant to let go. Originally he wanted to ask her why she wasn't waiting for him in the same place, until he saw her reddish eyes, and swallowed his words down.
"Hey, why are you crying?"
Upon hearing this, the girl was even more aggrieved. Having found someone to talk to, the girl sniffed and said intermittently: "... Mom only allows me to eat cake once a week...I like this chocolate cake..." she said, taking out her cake brochure and turning to one of the pages, the cake style on it was exactly the same as the cake just now.
"I picked this one on Monday."
"As soon as my training session was over, I came running......But in the end, I still wasn't able to buy it."
"I saw this cake in that bar and wanted to go in and buy it." Speaking of this, the girl was a little angry: "They actually didn't let me in, saying I was underage! I'm obviously 18 years old, I just don't have my ID card with me!"
"You don't eat, and you don't sell it to me..." The girl stared at the bakery in front of her, "I was going to buy a different flavor of cake, but...But when I returned to the bakery, I found that all the other flavors were sold out too!"
In fact, Shen Mingxu wasn't listening all that much. He was simply looking at her small pink lips intently, wondering if kissing her would be as soft as he imagined.
The girl fell into a deep self-loathing, "If I hadn't gone to the bar just now, I would have bought it by now...Now it's 9:30 p.m. Mom won't let me eat after 10. I didn't even eat dinner for the cake..."
"I'll buy you food!" Looking at her disappointed and frustrated look, Shen Mingxu felt his heart squeezed and wanted to hold her in his arms to comfort her, but afraid of scaring her, "Just now that...Chocolate cake!"
...Ten minutes later...
The girl was sitting on the sofa by the window in the bar, eating the chocolate cake, with a happy and satisfied look.
"So you thought we were selling cakes here!" Qi Xuan laughed out loud, "This is a bar!"
The girl raised her head in confusion, looking at Shen Mingxu, and then at Qi Xuan.
"You, don't listen to him." Shen Mingxu opened the cake brochure on the girl's left hand side, "You see this cake above, it's for sale here."
"Really?" The girl was pleasantly surprised.
Shen Mingxu, who was looking straight into those beautiful eyes, had a suspicious pink flush at the tip of his ears, "En, are you still coming here tomorrow? I can buy you something to eat, any cake you want...
The girl shook her head and was about to say something when her phone rang.
The word 'Mom' was displayed on the phone screen, the girl looked at the time and found that it was already past ten o'clock, so she stood up and answered the call.
"Mom...Okay, I-I'm on my way..." The girl's eyes darted around as she panicked, and her fingers twirled the ends of her hair restlessly.
Shen Mingxu felt like he was obsessed, feeling that every little action she made was too cute, and every move of hers had a firm hold on his heart, which was a strange but fascinating feeling for him...
"Hey, hey, everyone's gone, what are you still doing here?"
Qi Xuan's voice brought him back to his senses, the girl had disappeared.
"Why did you let her go?" Shen Mingxu was slightly grumpy, stood up and kicked the sofa.
Qi Xuan raised his eyebrows, "People want to leave, can I still force people to stay? People have said "Goodbye" to you, but you're distracted, I don't know where you went..."
"You! Forget it..." Shen Mingxu sat down in a sullen manner.
Seeing his depressed appearance, Qi Xuan stretched out his foot and kicked him in the leg, "Hey, are you serious?"
"It's none of your business!" Shen Minxu began to think about whether he needed to wait in the cake store tomorrow.
Qi Xuan kicked him again.
"Why!"
"Look beside you."
A colorful cake brochure is lying on the sofa.
"Looking at how she treasures that brochure, she'll come back in a while when she realizes its missing, you just wait here..."
Shen Mingxu couldn't wait, took the brochure and ran out.
Sure enough, at the corner he ran into the girl who came back to get her brochure.
The girl was gasping for breath, apparently anxious to run here.
"You forgot to take your brochure." Shen Mingxu handed her the cake brochure.
"Thank you!" The girl said gratefully, "You're such a good man!" Not only did he treat her to cake, he even came out to deliver the brochure to her.
"It's so dark, it's not very safe, let me send you back..."
"It doesn't matter, my home is not far, there are street lights and shops, I'm not afraid at all! I won't trouble you." The girl's eyebrows rose slightly with pride.
This proud little look makes Shen Mingxu's heart itchy, as if there are feathers tickling it, making him want to hold her in his arms, and rub her fiercely, "I like to walk in the streets at night, just send you home while I walk, no trouble at all."
"All right then!"
......
On the way, the girl sneaks a glance at him from time to time.
At this moment, Shen Mingxu is extremely grateful that he inherited his parent's good looks. Although he has always disliked other people liking him because of his face, if the other person is the girl next to him, it can be counted as an exception, because she is special, Shen Mingxu even hopes that she can fall in love with him just like those girls in school...
"...You, I, can I ask you one thing?" The girl finally spoke.
"Of course you can."
The girl stopped, Shen Mingxu also followed to this Y-shaped fork in the road, and stood still.
There are two roads in front of them, one is a dark trail without street lights, and the other is a commercial street, bright as day.
The girl looked at the trail, "If you take this trail, you can go directly to the back of my neighborhood in three minutes, but if you take the commercial street, you'll take a detour and have to walk five minutes more to get to the neighborhood, I've never dared to walk this trail at night because there is no one to accompany me and it's too dark inside, I, I don't know...... Can you accompany me down this path..."
After speaking, she seemed to feel that her request was too much, and hurriedly added: "If you're also afraid...We don't have to go this way..."
"Then we'll take this path."
"Okay!" The girl is very happy, she's always been curious about what the late night trail is like, but suffering from a lack of friends to explore with her, this wish has passed on from the age of 8 to 18...
The two of them stood in front of the path, the girl turned on the flashlight function on her mobile phone, and the faint white light could only illuminate a distance of about two or three steps. The cool night breeze blew against her face, bringing a little chill.
The girl secretly moved two steps to Shen Mingxu's side.
Shen Mingxu pretended not to notice anything, and walked comfortably and slowly. While the girl was not paying attention, Shen Mingxu gently kicked a stone to the road ahead, and the sound of the stone clattering on the ground seemed strange on this quiet night.
The girl cried out in surprise and took a nervous step backwards, bumping into Shen Mingxu's arms, who happened to get so close to her at some point.
Shen Mingxu seized the opportunity and directly reached out to embrace her, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's just a small stone."
The girl with her back against Shen Mingxu rolled her eyes where he couldn't see, and said in a slightly trembling voice, "En, en, I'm not afraid..."
"We can talk about other things to distract us." Shen Mingxu casually asked, "Are you a student of Jinlin High School?"
The girl shook her head sullenly, "I'm not."
"How could it be..."
"I have to learn dance everyday, so I don't have time to go to school, because my mother is a teacher and she teaches me cultural knowledge at home..."
The two passed a corner and could already see the exit of the path. A tall street lamp stood by the exit, illuminated with white light, appearing hazy and illusory in the night mist.
"Ah, we're out!"
The girl's joy was overwhelming. Shen Mingxu reluctantly let go of her hand, and saw the girl in front of him leap towards the street lamp, her light blue pleated skirt fluttering in a smooth and pleasant arc in the fluorescent white mist.
The scene of the girl standing under the street lamp smiling back at him and bending slightly to express her gratitude, gave Shen Mingxu the illusion of being under a huge stage where a girl in a light blue dance costume was saluting the audience, and about to perform a dance.
If she really danced, how wonderful it would be.
"Thank you for coming so far with me..."
Shen Mingxu walked towards her, his heart overjoyed as he got closer step by step, as if he had found a rare treasure.
Such a person, should belong to him...
"No thanks, if you don't mind, can you tell me your name?"
"...My name is Su Ning, Ning of quiet..."
"...You don't have to come over, I'll walk to my house, bye..."
The pale blue figure fell out of the light, and into the darkness.
She didn't even wait for him to approach.
"Wait a minute..."
Shen Mingxu ran past, standing under the street lamp, looking around, but in the surroundings there is no longer any trace of her.
Shen Mingxu smashed his fist on the street lamp, a bang sounded. His eyes are gloomy and terrible.
She disappeared.
Once again, she disappeared in front of his eyes...
Chapter 3: English Homework
"You've done this English question before, grammar and words haven't changed! How to fill in randomly now?" Su Wen used a pen to outline the English question, her eyes staring straight at Jing Jing under her lenses.
"I'm sorry, Ms. Su, I don't want to study anymore." She said, dodging Su Wen's eyes.
"What?!" Su Wen frowned deeply, "Do you know what you're saying?"
"I know..." Jing Jing bowed her head, "I want to learn dance."
"Did 'Mingxu' ask you to do it again?"
"No.... "Jing Jing seems to treat Su Wen as the only person she can talk to, "He...recently...he often goes to the dance class to find someone..."
"Is he looking for you?"
Her eyes dim and she shakes her head, "He's looking for a girl..."
"Jing Jing, what do you want teacher to say?" Su Wen sighed, "This 'Mingxu' certainly doesn't like you. Can't you accept it and study well?"
"... Mingxu, he just...Just likes a girl who can dance..." Jing Jing lowered her head, her voice low, but loud enough for Su Wen to hear, "...He didn't say...Didn't say he didn't like me..."
...
Don't see the coffin don't shed tears ah!
Su Wen is lying on her big bed, hot and angry, she can't sleep at all. What? Turn on the air conditioner? Sorry, no money, this month's electricity bill paid 300, can't afford air conditioning!!!
Su Wen sighed, this kind of life, when will it end ah!
【555: ...Didi...Successfully bind the Mary Sue system......555 will serve you wholeheartedly...】
【555:555 is an item collecting system that binds the host and is dedicated to enriching the system supermarket and providing quality service to every tasker who comes to exchange items...】
"Shit, you guys are still not finished playing, one will be 666, one will be 888, and now comes a 555, I said, I don't agree, I don't want..."
【555: 555 can provide you with 360-degree natural cooling breeze to disperse the heat and bring you...】
"Stop, stop, stop..." Su Wen said breathlessly, "It's useless to tempt me anymore, I'm not willing to give up my freedom and give you free labor."
Just thinking that once she agrees, this ghost will be bound to her soul forever, Su Wen will be awakened from her dreams...
【555: Host, you have to think clearly, this is an opportunity to collect all kinds of things in any world that exists only in legends. Are you sure you want to decline?】
Su Wen smiled dryly: "I don't have that idle time."
【555: ...The points you earn when you complete a task can also be used to redeem anything, money, jewelry, food...】
Su Wen stretched out a finger and pointed at herself: "Do I look like someone who lacks these things?"
【555:Like! 】
Su Wen: "Well, although I love money and food, and now it does look a little bitter, but these are temporary, I am working hard to make money! As long as I work a little harder, I'll get three times my salary! Haha, when the time comes where should I eat first?"
【555: You work so hard to gain so little. As long as you bind me, you can redeem things in the system store. The system store is the least short of money and food...】
Su Wen rolled over boredly, kicked off the quilt, turned on her phone to check the time, rubbed her eyes and said, "Don't waste your breath. I can just hook up with a president ah, or a rich man or something. Would I still need to worry about food and clothing?"
【555: But according to the system's investigation, you haven't dated any of your boyfriends for over three months now...】
Su Wen: "Hey, hey, that's not my fault, originally talk about love, hold hands, send gifts is very good, but there must be all kinds of proposals, marriage, one life and one couple, I don't want to lose my freedom, be a married woman!"
Su Wen yawned and closed her eyes, "...It's late, you should go to bed early, if you want to leave go ahead, don't disturb me..."
【555: ... 】
...
"Hey, it's not a good idea for you to wait here everyday!" Qi Xuan stretched out in a lazy manner, sleepy-eyed "This is a bar, which bar opens every morning at seven o'clock!"
Shen Mingxu ignored him, sitting on the sofa and looking outside.
"You're going to turn into a husband rock!" Qi Xuan collapsed on the sofa and covered his head with a pillow, "Forget it, you go on, I'll make up my sleep."
Qi Xuan had just fallen asleep when he heard the crisp cracking sound of a glass falling on the floor, and lifted his pillow only to see the back of Shen Mingxu running out in a hurry.
...
Su Ning was holding her little cake, counting the countdown to the traffic lights, just as she was about to cross the crosswalk...
"Su Ning!"
Before she could look back to see who was calling her, her hand was pulled, tightly.
"Eh?" Su Ning saw that it was Shen Mingxu, so she smiled and said, "It's you, what a coincidence ah, but... Can you let go of your hand? You're holding too tightly, it hurts a little..."
"Why haven't you come to see me these days!" Instead, Shen Mingxu squeezes more tightly and angrily says: "I wait for you at the bar everyday!"
"...You let go first, I didn't know..." Then Su Ning looked bewildered, "Why do you wait for me?"
Shen Mingxu is silent for a moment, then stammers, "You...Didn't you ask me to buy you cake?"
"...Have I?" Su Ning thought about it, although I can't recall asking him but, "I guess I forgot, otherwise you wouldn't be so angry..."
"Come with me."
"Where are we going?"
...
There is a row of cakes on the bar, all kinds of cakes.
"...So much."
"I told you, they sell cakes here, and the cakes here are much better than the cakes in the bakery next door, try one if you don't believe me?"
"But...But I don't have enough money..."
"It's okay!" Shen Mingxu looked at her straightforwardly, and said: "I invite you to eat, as long as you come everyday, I will treat you everyday."
Su Ning shook her head hurriedly, "No, no, I can only eat once a week, also, it's not good for you to treat me, I... Today, I can buy, I won't trouble you later, you don't have to buy it for me..."
"Why!" Shen Mingxu's face became downcast, "You obviously like cake, or do you mean, you don't like the cake I bought?"
"No, no, you think too much!" I don't know why Shen Mingxu is so scary today, Su Ning is a bit overwhelmed and doesn't know what to say, she can only repeat, "Don't be angry..."
"Okay, I'm not angry!" Shen Mingxu reached for her hand and said, "As long as you promise me one thing, I won't be angry."
"Ok, fine."
"Be my girlfriend!"
"En...Ehh?" Su Ning hurriedly shakes her head, "No, no."
"Why not!" Shen Mingxu is obviously a little grumpy, "Do you hate me?"
"No..."
"If you don't hate me, then you like me!" Shen Mingxu held her wrist tightly and said, "Since you like me, be my girlfriend..."
"Let go of your hand first..." Su Ning wants to cry. Why did he grab her hand again, and so hard, when she leaves later, there will be bruises.
"If you don't promise me, I won't let go!"
"...You can't be such a scoundrel!" Su Ning said: "We've only met twice, you want me to be your girlfriend, you must be a very frivolous person, I don't want to be your girlfriend!"
"I'm not frivolous at all!" Shen Mingxu anxiously defended himself: "The first time I saw you I fell in love, these days I think about you everyday, so much that I can't sleep at night. I like you so much, so much that I want you to be my girlfriend, how can you say I'm frivolous?" The last few words, he nearly shouted them out.
In the end, contact with fewer people, have not seen such a straightforward confession, Su Ning froze first, and then blushed, stammering: "You...You're..."
"So promise me..." Shen Mingxu saw that his words had some effect, and continued to make persistent efforts: "As my girlfriend, I will buy you the things you like everyday, cakes, clothes, cosmetics, jewelry. Whatever you want I will buy you, you don't have to do anything, just stay by my side..."
"...Then, can you tutor me in my English homework?"
"???" This question is a bit strange, Shen Mingxu can't care so much, directly nodded: "No problem!"
"...Then, alright..."
Chapter 4: I did it for him!
"What does this word mean?"
"I haven't quite understood English grammar, can you repeat it again?"
"I've never understood this English word..."
...
Since that day, Su Ning agreed to be his girlfriend. Now she brings various English practice books to him everyday to ask for help.
Shen Mingxu scratched his head. Fortunately, he studied abroad when he was a child. General English questions aren't too difficult, but he also doesn't understand many grammar questions ah!
Qi Xuan looked at Shen Mingxu with a funny look as he read English books with a desk lamp nearby.
"Hey, this is a bar here..."
"Don't make any noise!"
"Okay, just use this place as your study room!"
"Hey, hey!" Qi Xuan kicked Shen Mingxu, "Your little girlfriend is here!"
Shen Mingxu reflexively put the English book away, and stood up to go to the entrance of the bar to meet her.
"It's the other one..."
Seeing Jing Jing, whose eyes lit up when she saw him as she entered, Shen Mingxu sat back down, disappointed. He took out his English book, looked at his watch and said, "One hour left, one hour left..."
"Mingxu!" Jing Jing hugged her school bag and walked over quickly, "Sorry, my mom enrolled me in a dance class these days, I spent all my spare time learning to dance so I didn't come..."
Shen Mingxu glanced at her faintly and said, "Is there anything else?"
"... No...Nothing..." Jing Jing held her schoolbag, standing still, feeling very nervous.
"If thats all, you can go now."
"...But...Mingxu...We haven't seen each other for a week..."
"I said, you can leave! Understand?"
"...Mingxu...Are you angry?" Jing Jing said anxiously, "I didn't mean not to come these days...It's really..."
"Ok, ok, it doesn't matter whether you come or not, stop talking nonsense, leave fast, I don't have time to deal with you."
Mist rose in Jing Jing's eyes, she blinked and said: "...Then I'll go first..."
Jing Jing clutched her school bag, she turned around and just walked out a few steps.
"Wait!"
As if hope was rekindled, Jing Jing immediately came back.
"I remember that you did quite well in class, right? I wonder if your English grades are good?"
She shook her head honestly and said, "My English grades have never been very good, so my mom hired an English tutor for me..."
Shen Mingxu directly handed the English practice book to her, pointing to the English reading question, "You try this question!"
"This question..."
"What's the matter? You can't do it!"
"No, no, I'll do it, I've done this set of questions, the teacher told me..."
"Okay, then you do it for me, one hour, as much as you can, and when you're done, I'll treat you to cake. There at the bar, besides the chocolate cake, you can pick whatever you want."
"Mingxu..." Jing Jing was so moved that she held the English book and started to do it seriously.
Shen Mingxu also took the time to ask grammar questions, holding a pen, taking notes seriously, so much that Jing Jing looked fascinated.
"Hey hey, keep doing it, there's still half an hour left, don't get distracted..."
"Oh, yes." Jing Jing came back to her senses, hurriedly looking at English questions.
When there were ten minutes left, Shen Mingxu finally put down his notebook and said to Jing Jing, "That's it, that's all we have to do, let's go and get the cake..."
Jing Jing nodded her head and said with a happy look on her face, "Okay, Mingxu."
Seeing the various cakes on the counter, she was stunned and said: "These, can I pick any?"
"En," Shen Mingxu nodded and said, "Except for the chocolate cake, you can take whatever you like. By the way, will you come tomorrow?"
"Mingxu, do you want me to come?" Jing Jing asked with hope.
"If you come and help me do the problems, I'll treat you to cake..." Shen Mingxu said casually, his eyes always looking at the door of the bar.
As if seeing something, Shen Mingxu's eyes clearly brightened, and he walked to the door of the bar and hugged a girl who had just entered.
Despite the smile on his face, Shen Mingxu still complained with dissatisfaction: "Why do you always come at nine o'clock on time everyday, why don't you come earlier? Or, you just tell me where you learn dance, and I'll pick you up."
Su Ning shook her head and muttered: "No, you will disturb me."
Shen Mingxu raised three fingers and said with a serious look: "I promise, I will only stand outside the door and watch, I won't say a word, I won't disturb you!"
"No, the teacher and my mother know each other. If you pick me up, my mother will be angry..." Su Ning changed the subject and asked, "I think I forgot my English practice book at your place yesterday..."
"Yep, I put it away." Shen Mingxu held her hand smoothly and squeezed it in satisfaction before taking her to the table and chair where the lamp was placed, "I'll help you finish your homework for today, then we'll stop and go shopping, okay?"
"Mingxu...Who is she?" Carrying a cake, I don't know when, Jing Jing appeared beside them and suddenly asked.
"Why haven't you left yet?" Shen Mingxu stopped the bartender and asked him to bring two glasses of juice, then looked at Jing Jing, frowning he said, "What are you asking for?"
"Mingxu...She, she..." Jing Jing hesitated: "Is she your girlfriend?"
"En, she's my girlfriend." Shen Mingxu nodded: "What, is there anything else?"
"No...Nothing." There was mist in the bottom of her eyes, tears gathering, she couldn't help it, she lowered her head, reaching out to wipe the tears away, acting carefully, as if afraid of being seen by Shen Mingxu.
However, when she looked up, she realized that Shen Mingxu's mind had long been occupied by the girl beside him, who was drinking her juice in a polite manner, and he hadn't paid any attention to her at all.
I don't know why, from the bottom of her heart a wave of resentment arose, and by some miracle, Jing Jing raised her voice and said: "Mingxu...I'll help you with your homework tomorrow!"
Shen Mingxu, who was holding the English workbook and wanted to claim credit in front of Su Ning, was taken aback. He saw Su Ning ask inexplicably, "What homework?"
Shen Mingxu immediately tried to say something, but it was already too late.
With inexplicable pride, Jing Jing said loudly: "It's your English homework! I did it for Mingxu!"
Chapter 5: You're a rouge's girlfriend
"Mingxu?" Su Ning looked at Shen Mingxu.
"Eh...Ning Ning, don't get me wrong!" Shen Mingxu hurriedly explained: "She's my classmate and has better grades in the class, so I asked her to help me with the problems..."
"Really?" Su Ning's eyes lit up and she looked at Jing Jing, "Your grades are very good, then can you help me with my English homework?"
Carrying her cake, she nodded her head in a straightforward manner.
...
Since then, Shen Mingxu who cherished his solo study time with Su Ning, a strong two-kilowatt bright light bulb called Jing Jing was inserted between them...
...
Shen Mingxu felt jealous, although the object of jealousy is a girl. A girl who still likes him, he just can't help but be jealous.
Damn, let Ning Ning bring her juice!
And eat Ning Ning's chocolate cake!
Damn it, I've never eaten an apple that Ning Ning personally cut!!!
...
Over a month later.
Shen Mingxu finally can't stand it.
Shen Mingxu took advantage of Su Ning being in the restroom, and said to Jing Jing who was working hard on an English problem: "Don't come in the future!"
"Ehh?" Jing Jing's hand still held the pen, seemingly unaware of what she did to make him unhappy, "...Am I slow to do the problem?...Sorry, I'm just not familiar with some of the problems...I'm sure next time..."
"Stop!" Shen Mingxu frowned and said: "That's not the problem! Don't you think you're like a light bulb between me and Su Ning?"
"Light bulb...?"
"Yes!" Seeing that Jing Jing was still ignorant and didn't know what he meant, Shen Mingxu's tone became a little irritable, "You...You're really annoying!"
"Mingxu...Mingxu..." Jing Jing's eyes gradually filled with fog, looking at Shen Mingxu she said: "Mingxu...Do you hate me?"
"That's right!" Shen Mingxu just wanted to fool Jing Jing away before Su Ning came back, and didn't care if his words were excessive, "Don't come here to look for me anymore, I'm tired of seeing you!"
...
When Su Ning came out of the bathroom, she just saw Jing Jing's back as she ran out of the bar with her school bag in her arms.
Why did she run away?!
Su Ning didn't have time to think about it and wanted to go after her, but she was stopped by Shen Mingxu.
"Why did Jing Jing leave?" Su Ning said anxiously: "You go and chase her back, quickly!"
"There is an emergency at her home, so let her go back!" Without the disturbance of the light bulb, Shen Mingxu felt comfortable, holding Su Ning's hand on his arm, satisfied: "Ning Ning, today we won't do problems, I'll take you out to play..."
"No, Jing Jing is in such a hurry, something big must have happened, we're her friends, we should go and help her!" Su Ning slapped his hand away, took out her cellphone, and was about to call Jing Jing.
Shen Mingxu simply snatched her cellphone and threw it aside.
"...What are you doing?! Don't bother me!" Su Ning was a little angry. If something happened to Jing Jing's family that prevented her from receiving her salary, it would be terrible! "I'm not in the mood to play with you now, I have to call Jing Jing..." she said as she tried to get her cell phone back.
Su Ning didn't notice that his face was getting more and more gloomy.
When she was trapped at the bar by Shen Mingxu's hands, Su Ning realized that the atmosphere was a bit unpleasant ah...
"Mingxu..." Her tone carried a little caution in it.
Before the words could fall, she was kissed harshly by Shen Mingxu, a hot and urgent kiss. His hand pinched her chin, forcing her to open her mouth and accept his eager attack, as if to vent the suffocation of being ignored by her for over a month, not giving her a chance to catch her breath.
He felt that her mouth carried a hint of sweetness that was as delicious as he imagined, and he couldn't get enough of it.
At first, Su Ning tried to push him away. Then she could only hold onto him so that she could stand firmly.
When the kiss was over, Su Ning was already in tears and her lips were red and swollen like a cherry, so moist that Shen Mingxu wanted to do it again, but looking at Su Ning's crying face, he held back, holding her waist with one hand and pulling a tissue out with the other to wipe the tears on her face while asking, "Do you still want to call Jing Jing?"
Su Ning dodged his hand, buried her face in his chest, shook her head and sobbed: "I'm not calling anymore...wuwu...I'm breaking up with you!"
"Hmm! I don't agree." Shen Mingxu hugged her tightly in his arms, and said: "Break up requires two people to agree, I don't agree to break up. You will always be my girlfriend!"
"Rogue...Wuwu...Big rogue!"
"Oh, I'm a rogue, you're a rogue's girlfriend..."
...
Since breaking through the line of defense that day, Shen Mingxu has been out of control. When idle touch her little hand. Frequently kiss her while she isn't paying attention...
That night, Su Ning, who was really worried about Jing Jing, went to Jing Jing's house, only to learn that Jing Jing had been crying because of being driven away by Shen Mingxu. In order to be at ease, she would persuade Shen Mingxu so that she could come back and continue to learn English. Bearing the burden of humiliation, she indulged his behavior of eating tofu...
"No, she's going to disturb us if she comes here!" Shen Mingxu played with Su Ning's hand, from time to time putting it on his mouth for a peck.
Su Ning simply felt that she couldn't bear to look at him, and thought that she must wash her hands with hand sanitizer several times when she went to the restroom later!
"Jing Jing has good grades and she helped me with my English homework, so that my English grades improved a lot!"
"I can also tutor you in your English homework!" Shen Mingxu gradually became dissatisfied with only playing with her hand, and stretched his claws to her waist, wanting to hold her over.
Su Ning stood up hurriedly, raising an eyebrow at him, she shook her head: "If you don't allow Jing Jing to come back, then you can't touch me anymore!"
Truly, I love every look of her!
Shen Mingxu released his hands and put them on both sides of the sofa, smiling at Su Ning: "I can call her back, come here, hug me, then I'll promise you."
Chapter 6: Su Ning will not leave
"Just a hug..."
"En!" Shen Mingxu took out his cell phone, clicked on the contact list, looked at Su Ning and said, "Just come over and give me a hug, I'll call her right away..."
"You have to apologize to Jing Jing!" Su Ning said, "Jing Jing was kind enough to help me with my homework, but you upset her, apologize after you call..."
"Okay!" Shen Mingxu said cheerfully: "No problem!"
Su Ning slowly walked over, thinking in her heart, reluctant to let the child be a wolf, have already been kissed, so what are you afraid of.
Su Ning stretched out her arms, hugged his waist, stopped for a moment, and immediately wanted to leave, but she was pressed back by Shen Mingxu with one hand, "...I'm hugging you...You can't fool around!"
"No..." Shen Mingxu dialed Jing Jing's number, "I just want you to hear me apologize to her..."
Jing Jing answered the phone as soon as it rang, "Mingxu...Is it Mingxu?"
Su Ning, who was about to let him turn on the speaker phone mode, became silent, put her ear to the other side of the phone, and mouthed the word 'apology' to Shen Mingxu.
"En..." Shen Mingxu's hand around her waist slowly moved towards her back, "I spoke too much that day...Are you angry?"
"No...No, not angry..." Jing Jing quickly denied.
"Then why haven't you been here these past two days?"
"I...I'm..."
Su Ning rolled her eyes at him. Didn't you make her stay away?
"Well, if you are dissatisfied with me, then I'll apologize to you first..."
"No, no, Mingxu I'm not dissatisfied!" Jing Jing started to appease him instead: "Mingxu, you are fine...Don't think too much about..."
Su Ning couldn't help but punch him.
"Ah! Pain!" Shen Mingxu shouted in an exaggerated manner..
"Mingxu, Mingxu, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
"I'm all right." Shen Mingxu looked at Su Ning and his lips curved up: "I was just scratched by a cat." While talking, he also scratched Su Ning's chin. Su Ning couldn't hide from his hands no matter how she tilted her head, and taking into account Jing Jing on the phone, she had to swallow her complaints.
Shen Mingxu was extremely satisfied with Su Ning lying in his arms so obediently and docilely, and began to extend the conversation time with Jing Jing, chatting for a long time.
Jing Jing was like a concubine who was driven into the cold palace then suddenly regained her favor. She was flattered and couldn't wait to drill out of the phone.
This phone call lasted nearly half an hour. The coffee shop, yes, its a coffee shop now. In order to let Su Ning quietly study here, Shen Mingxu ignored the objections of the bar owner Qi Xuan, forcefully changed the bar into a coffee shop!
The air conditioner in the coffee shop was too low, and Su Ning, wearing short sleeves, was a little bit cold, feeling that Shen Mingxu's arms were quite warm, she shrank into his arms and didn't move, listening to Jing Jing's voice on the other end of the phone, talking eagerly about various interesting things. Thinking that Jing Jing would definitely come tomorrow, Su Ning is relieved, and stopped watching Shen Mingxu's words and deeds, letting him tease her. Anyway, he's just a young adult, and he wouldn't do too much, he would just kiss her, eat her tofu...
Su Ning, who's had enough of the suffering of living without air-conditioning in the past few days, did not sleep well. It's rare for Su Ning to have such a comfortable time, she couldn't stop herself from feeling sleepy. Su Ning yawned lazily. Holding her human-shaped pillow with a heater function, she arched her head into Shen Mingxu's coat, and fell asleep like this.
...One night passes...
The next day, she stretched out and opened her eyes but saw a strange ceiling and chandelier. Su Ning was taken aback and hurriedly opened the quilt. Fortunately, the clothes are still on...
Start thinking back to what happened last night...
Su Ning patted herself on the forehead, very upset, this old problem of letting down her vigilance when she is sleepy happened again, how could she casually sleep in a man's arms?!
Fortunately, Mingxu is a decent gentleman, didn't do any unspeakable things to her, replaced by her previous boyfriends, I'm afraid that she would've long been eaten to the bone, crumbs are not left...
Su Ning got out of bed, wearing slippers placed next to the bed, found the bathroom, just opened the door, the water vapor inside spread out, Shit, he took a shower here?!
Su Ning's eyes widen. This is a bedroom with an attached bathroom. He took a shower here, meaning that he slept here last night??
Su Ning took two steps to the mirror, with a handkerchief to dry the upper surface of the condensation, neck! The red marks on her neck are unusually striking, one after another strawberry marks are planted straight to the collarbone. Su Ning wants to cry, where is this a gentleman ah, fall! Just adulthood is like this, the future is still!
Su Ning comforted herself, there is still a month, wait for Jing Jing to take the college entrance examination, then say goodbye to him. Yes, bear with him for another month, at most one month. Jing Jing is now very motivated to learn English, and her grades are also rising. As long as it continues, her college entrance examination score will rise from 100 to 130 steadily. Yes, for three times the salary, for air conditioning, for food, one month is nothing!
Su Ning clenched her little fist, her eyes firm!
The door lock sounded, followed by the footsteps of Shen Mingxu.
"Ning Ning, are you still sleeping?" Shen Mingxu knocked on the door, "I bought you breakfast, come out to eat!"
Liar, clearly just got out of here, but also pretend not to come in, hypocrite!
Su Ning pulled a towel to cover her neck, walked to the door and opened it.
When Shen Mingxu saw her, she was already very aggrieved, with her head down, very depressed...
"Ning Ning, what's wrong with you?" Shen Mingxu hurriedly put down the breakfast and touched her forehead anxiously, "Is there any discomfort?"
Su Ning took away the towel, exposed her neck, raised her head and pounced in his arms crying, "...There's bugs...wuwu... I've been bitten on the neck...bugs...it's all red...wuwu.
Looking at the patches of red, Shen Mingxu, who had obviously never thought about this effect, touched his nose and coughed awkwardly: "I...I'll go buy you a scarf..."
Like venting, Su Ning wiped all her tears on his clothes, and even wrinkled his clothes non stop.
Seeing Su Ning crying almost out of breath, Shen Mingxu's heart ached, he cursed himself shameless, at the same time full of remorse and not knowing how to comfort her, he could only silently let her vent on his clothes.
......
Since that day, Shen Mingxu has been much more peaceful and no longer eats her tofu from time to time, nor does he casually put down Jing Jing.
A month will soon be over. For some reason, Shen Mingxu felt an indescribable feeling of panic in his heart. He always felt that Su Ning was about to disappear. At the thought of Su Ning leaving him, he couldn't breathe, suffocated, and he'd wake up from his sleep at night. He kept hypnotizing himself, no, no, Su Ning will not leave...
Until one day, a phone call came from his family, asking him to study abroad after the entrance exam.
Chapter 7: Overturned
The hunch in his heart came true, but the heart that he had been hanging on fell down. It was just going abroad, bringing Ning Ning with him, Shen Mingxu thought, after going abroad, Ning Ning will only know me and can only rely on me. Thinking like this, he became more and more excited. He took out his mobile phone and called his brother.
Shen Mingxu never considered the possibility that Su Ning would refuse.
As soon as the phone was connected, as if he knew what he wanted to say, Shen Mingxuan cut him off and said directly: "No negotiation, you have to study abroad. When will you get your diploma!"
(TL: Shen Mingxuan is the brother.)
"Brother, I didn't say I don't want to go!"
"Oh?"
"It's just that I want to take someone with me."
"No, stay away from those rouge like friends."
"No, no, I'm going to take my girlfriend there. She can also dance. I want you to find a school that is close to me abroad where she can learn to dance. By the way, I want us to go through the admission procedures together!" Shen Mingxu added: "By the way, I will never live on campus. Buy me a house with a better view close to the school. It must be big enough so I can change it to a dance studio... Oh, and I need to have a pool and a bathroom, but only one. No more."
Shen Mingxuan seemed a little unhappy: "When did you get a girlfriend? Does mom know?"
"It's been more than two months since we started dating, and I haven't told Mom yet."
"You haven't gone home for the past two months. You said that you were going to self-study, but you were actually going to see your girlfriend?" Shen Mingxuan put out the cigarette butt, pondered for a moment, and said, "Don't mess with some shady women outside!"
"She's not a shady woman!" Once someone talks about Su Ning, Shen Mingxu will be like a firecracker, he responded grumpily: "Don't think that just because you're my brother, you can just say anything about her! I'll turn against you!"
The other side remained still for a long time, and just when Shen Mingxu thought he would not respond, Shen Mingxuan spoke lightly: "Bring her to the house and let Mom meet her, as long as Mom approves, I have no objections..."
"Okay!" Shen Mingxu was afraid that he would regret it, so he immediately responded: "I'll take her home tonight. You ask Mom to prepare more desserts. She likes desserts very much. By the way, brother, don't pretend to be a debt collector again. She is timid, don't scare her!"
"...I have a very important meeting in the afternoon, so I won't be back."
······
In the school's recent mock exams, Jing Jing's English has reached a good score of over 130. In addition, there are still two days before the exam, and the school will release it. After two days off, she advocated letting students relax before the college entrance examination, so that the nerves would not be so tense, in order to get good grades in the test, Jing Jing's mother found Su Wen in advance.
(TL: Su Wen is Su Ning's real name. They are the same person.)
"Teacher Su, thank you so much for your hard work!" Jing Jing's mother shook Su Wen's hand and said gratefully: "Jing Jing has never had such a good score on the exam before. Thanks to her English improving by 30 points, she will definitely be admitted into Rongda now!"
"This is what I should do as a teacher..." Su Wen couldn't keep a smile from breaking out on her face.
"Oh, by the way, Teacher Su can take a break for these two days, I've already talked to the head teacher." Jing Jing's mother took out a card from her wallet, handed it to Su Wen, and said: "Teacher Su, this card has 100,000 yuan. You originally had a monthly salary of 30,000 yuan and I promised to triple it, which of course I will honor, so now you have a salary of 90,000 yuan, and I personally think you are serious and hard-working, so I'm giving you 100,000 more. The pin is six zeros, and once again, thank you very much!"
Su Wen suppressed the excitement in her heart, took it, and said, "How could I possibly accept this..."
"Teacher Su, you don't have to be polite and don't feel embarrassed. Jing Jing's father has made a lot of money in the real estate business in the past two years. This amount of money is not a lot to us. Please accept it with a peace of mind. You deserve it."
······
Three times the salary has finally arrived. While Su Wen was relieved, she felt sincere for the extra 10,000 yuan. She originally wanted to get the money and disappear immediately. After thinking about it, Su Wen felt that Jing Jing's family is are all good people, She deserves better grades, and unfortunately there is no one else who can inspire Jing Jing except Shen Mingxu...
That afternoon, Su Ning appeared in the café.
"Jing Jing is about to take the college entrance examination. Let's give her a call to cheer her on!" Su Ning turned on her cell phone, and scrolled through to find Jing Jing's phone number, and looked at Shen Mingxu, who was playing with her fruit platter next to her. "Quick! Take out your phone too!"
"Hey, I have to take the college entrance examination too. Why don't you see my girlfriend cheering me on?" Shen Mingxu stabbed a piece of papaya with a toothpick and fed it to Su Ning. I heard that papaya makes breasts grow bigger, that night I didn't dare to touch it, only poked, it feels very good, if it is bigger... Shen Mingxu's ears suddenly turned pink
(TL: I searched up "papaya" and it's also called "mùguā(木瓜)" it looks like this:
and when Shen Mingxu says "that night," I'm assuming he's referring to chapter 6, when she fell asleep in his embrace and woke up in his house with red marks on her neck, implying that he did more than just give her hickey's that night.)
"Then you have to work hard, and try to get a good result!" Seeing that he hadn't taken out with his phone, she reached out and rummaged through his pockets, "Where did you put your phone? Take it out quickly."
Shen Mingxu hurriedly stopped her movements, afraid she would hurt herself, and obediently took out his phone.
"After you call her, follow the instructions on this." Su Ning took out a note and placed it out on the table.
Shen Mingxu glanced at the note, then looked at Su Ning, and said, "...it's not impossible for me to read it..."
"But you have to come to my house for dinner tonight. My mother wants to meet you.
"En?" Su Ning was stunned. Is it really okay to see the parents so soon? However, seeing the look of expectation on Shen Mingxu's face and thinking about how she could get three times the salary, he has contributed a lot, and just before Su Ning leaves him, she will fulfill his wish. Su Ning nodded, asking with some uncertainty: "Will your mother like me?"
(TL: Kind of confused because hasn't she already received the triple salary?)
Seeing her nodding in agreement, Shen Mingxu was very happy, hugging her and planning to take her home right away.
"Stop, call Jing Jing first!"
"Okay!" Shen Mingxu quickly dialed Jing Jing's number. Jing Jing answered as soon as the first ring.
"Mingxu?"
"Yes, it's me."
"Mingxu, what's the matter? Did something happen?"
Shen Mingxu looked at the note and read it word by word: "The college entrance exam is coming soon, how are you preparing?"
······
The note seemed to be full of words, but it was very fast to read. It was the last sentence and Shen Mingxu frowned and looked at Su Ning. Su Ning hurriedly gave him a thumbs up gesture.
Shen Mingxu took a deep breath and said: "I hope you can get a good grade on the exam, I would be very happy."
Although I don't know what the good or bad of the light bulb's exam has to do with me, I'll just listen to what little darling tells me to do.
After saying this last sentence, he hung up.
······
Looking at Shen Mingxu's seriousness in choosing clothes for her, Su Ning sighed silently. After she disappears, this foolish child would be so sad. It seems that she is his first love. However, his love will eventually fade away and he'll move on. For a long time, thinking about it like this made Su Ning feel a little better. Today, she will do everything she can to make him happy.
On the way to the Shen manor, Shen Mingxu prepared a lot of small snacks in the car, and fed them to her happily, completely ignoring the existence of the driver, and those small movements that had been silent for a long time began again. As long as it wasn't too much, Su Ning would endure it. It's the last day, he should be happy.
(TL: By "small movements" it means Shen Mingxu started to kiss her and do romantic actions.)
Standing at the entrance, she felt a bad feeling in her stomach, and when Su Ning saw the European-style luxury interior, she felt like all of this was all a bad idea. She felt like she had been here before but couldn't remember when, but before she could think about it, she was forced to follow Shen Mingxu, who wanted to take her to see his mother, with his arms around her waist, they walked in.
...
After a meeting in the company, he looked at his watch, It was still early. Shen Mingxuan thought for a while and decided to go back and have a look at the so called "girlfriend." His younger brother has always been stubborn, and it looks like he's protecting her. If his mother is dissatisfied with her, maybe the two would argue. He needed to be there to make sure things didn't go out of hand
···
"My mother must be in the kitchen again. Every time I go home, she will cook soup for me. You wait here. I will go to the kitchen and help her with the soup."
Suning nodded, "En, okay, you go!"
She is rather uneasy now, looking around, she feels like she had been here before.
Shen Mingxu took the lead out of the kitchen with the soup in his hand, and said as he walked, "Mom, let Auntie and the others do these things in the future. What if you get burned!"
A well-dressed noble woman smiled warmly, holding three porcelain bowls in her hands, looking at Shen Mingxu lovingly, "You come back after a long time, I just want to cook something delicious for you, study hard."
Shen Mingxu put the soup pot on the dinner table, walked up to Su Ning's side in two steps, hugged Su Ning's shoulders, and showed a big smile to Mrs. Shen, "Mom, quickly look. This is my girlfriend! I took her to come see you!"
Shit. Su Ning was stiff. When she saw Madam Shen, she remembered. Yes, she was here five years ago. She also met with Madam Shen. She even has the same soup, but standing next to her is Shen Mingxu, not Shen Mingxuan!
How could I forget! How could I be so careless!
The preferences of the two brothers are very similar. Five years ago, Su Ning, who liked to be lazy, didn't even bother to wear makeup. Currently, Su Ning doesn't have the money to buy makeup. Five years ago, and today she used her original appearance. The only thing that's changed was her hair.
"Su Wen!" The porcelain bowl in her hand fell to the ground, making a cracking sound, she pointed her finger at Su Ning.
She looked at Shen Mingxu, her pupils contracted, her voice filled with disbelief, "You said, She, is your girlfriend?!"
Well, it turns out that people who know you will still recognize you even if your hairstyle changes.
Su Ning thought to herself, if I pretend to be Su Wen's sister, could I pull it off?
"Mom? What's wrong?" The unreal sense of panic in Shen Mingxu's heart appeared again. He wrapped his hands around Su Ning's shoulders and tried hard to embed her firmly in his grip, but he couldn't counteract the unease in his heart.
"She! She! She is clearly your brother's fiancée!!" Madam Shen couldn't bear the anger, "Quickly drive her out, this evil witch, have you forgotten how your brother was harmed by her??!"
Su Ning's shoulders felt like they were about to be crushed by Shen Mingxu, but she still did not struggle, and made a last effort, "Su Wen? Auntie, are you talking about-" My older sister? But these three words didn't have the time to be spoken.
"Su Wen?"
This familiar, cold, inhumane, air-conditioned voice penetrated Su Ning's ears, causing her to shudder.
Chapter 8: No Children!!!
When Su Ning turned around, she saw the man who almost illegally imprisoned her five years ago, Shen Mingxuan.
At the beginning, Su Ning was sent to study abroad by her mother. That irresponsible mother paid for her tuition for three years, then completely disappeared. Su Ning, who had no support and was in a foreign country and could not speak the language, was in a panic. She met Shen Mingxuan, who was also studying abroad.
Such a talented, beautiful, and golden man was perfect. When Su Ning saw him for the first time, she knew what appearance and 'character' he liked. This person, who looks cold and seemingly inhuman, unexpectedly likes girls who are lively, cheerful, and slightly 'sexy'.
Su Ning joined the school's cheerleading team, and under the pretense of loving to dance and sing, she instantly bewitched Shen Mingxuan's mind. After that, under Shen Mingxuan's implicit gentleman's pursuit, the two got together naturally. During this period, there were quarrels, which were almost all caused by Su Ning's unreasonable troubles, that ended with Shen Mingxuan's apologizing. The two were like an ordinary loving couple.
When she was about to graduate, Shen Mingxuan proposed to her.
This made Su Ning, who was addicted by the game of love, instantly sober up. It was obviously just a brief campus love story, so why would he want to get married?!
Su Ning refused without thinking, and said the phrase " Let's break up."
Contrary to what she had expected, Shen Mingxuan nodded calmly and didn't refute her, which made Su Ning depressed for several days, but wasn't she the one that wanted to break up without delay? Su Ning adjusted her mentality, packed her luggage and planned to return to China.
It was during this period, Shen Mingxuan found her again, and said a lot of things such as breaking up and still being friends, and wanted her to do him a favor, saying that his mother had been urging him to get married, but he wanted to focus on his career and wanted her to pretend to be his fiancée. To appease his mother, Su Ning, who had some guilt towards Shen Mingxuan, agreed without thinking.
When Su Ning arrived at his house, she saw Madam Shen and ate the soup cooked by Madam Shen herself. Everything was perfect. However, just as Shen Mingxuan was taking her home, Su Ning took a sip of the water he had handed over, then fell asleep. Waking up, she found myself sleeping in an unfamiliar room, sore and weak.
Shen Mingxuan was lying beside her, their bodies tightly pressed together, without any cloth barrier.
(TL: there both naked.)
Su Ning's cries awakened Shen Mingxuan. The gloomy and indifferent face did not have the warmth of the past. He put on his pajamas and stood up, walked to the windows, opened the curtains, and outside all that could be seen was an endless sea. The glaring sunlight made Su Ning cover her eyes. She could only vaguely see his tall figure standing in front of the window, looking down at her, and said: "I carefully selected this place three months ago, here no one can bother us while were on our honeymoon."
"Whenever you are pregnant with my child, I will take you out of here."
Knowing that crying couldn't solve her problem, Su Ning began to plan a way to escape.
Su Ning wiped her tears with the quilt, looked at Shen Mingxuan with watery eyes full of grievances, and stretched out her hands to him, "Mingxuan, my back hurts. You come and hug me."
Shen Mingxuan, who didn't expect Su Ning to react like this, was stunned for a moment, but still couldn't refuse her request, walked over and hugged her in his arms.
"You..." Shen Mingxuan hesitated, "I'm locking you up. Aren't you angry?"
"Angry! Of course I'm angry!" Su Ning couldn't help but clenched her fist and punched his chest, and said: "I have said it before, I can only sleep with you on the day of the wedding!!"
Shen Mingxuan tightened his hand unconsciously, "Aren't you, didn't you want to break up with me?"
"Humph! That was because you made me angry!" Su Ning lifted her chin, making a proud gesture, "How can a marriage proposal be so simple! You are a rich second-generation. Where are my 999 roses? Where's my hot air balloon?"
Without waiting for him to answer, Su Ning continued to scold: "At such an meaningful moment like a marriage proposal, you didn't even prepare a camera to record, so of course I won't agree!"
Su Ning laid on his chest and sobbed, "I was angry for a while and said that I wanted to break up, but in the end, you agreed without thinking about it, and you didn't even refute. You said you wanted to focus on your career... I love you so much, but the result... wuwu"
After some accusations, although there are many loopholes, who decided to make a man in love have zero IQ.
"I'm sorry, Wen Wen. It's all my fault. Don't be angry."
Later, Su Ning escaped.
Until now.
Thinking of Shen Mingxuan's ruthless appearance that wanted to imprison her until she gave birth to a child, Su Ning couldn't help being timid. Shen Mingxuan, who had been fooled by her once, must have become even more perverted, what should I do! What do I do!! I don't want to have children!
Chapter 9: Hurry up and take me away!
"You have recognized the wrong person!" Shen Mingxu said loudly: "She is Su Ning, not Su Wen!"
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to explain to you, Su Ning, let's go." After speaking, he took Su Ning and walked out of the door. Su Ning lowered her head, not daring to look at Shen Mingxuan.
Two black-clothed bodyguards suddenly appeared outside the door. Without saying a word, they directly restrained Shen Mingxu. Shen Mingxu said angrily: "Brother! What are you doing?! I said you recognized the wrong person, she is Su Ning! Not your fiancée!! "
"Yes, yes, I'm Su Ning..." Su Ning grabbed Shen Mingxu's sleeve and didn't let go, and calmly looked at Shen Mingxuan and said, "The Su Wen you're talking about is my sister. Me and my sister look very similar, but I am not her! You've got the wrong person!"
Mrs. Shen became more restless, and said anxiously: "Mingxuan, you quickly let go of Mingxu, We will not interfer in your affairs with Su Wen, don't hurt Mingxu!"
Shen Mingxuan didn't reply, he just turned his head to the nanny standing next to him and said, "Take my mother to rest."
Then he looked at the bodyguards on both sides of Shen Mingxu and said: "Send him abroad tomorrow."
He completely ignored Shen Mingxu's roar's and waited until the whole hall was quiet, leaving only the two of them left.
Su Ning's hand resting on to the table top tightened nervously, still trying to put up a last struggle she said, "You really recognized the wrong person. Let me go and I'll bring back my sister for you."
"En, I know." His black eyes were looking at her for a moment, Shen Mingxuan said indifferently: "It's been five years. She can't be as young as you, come here, Let me take a closer look and see if you have put on any makeup, if not, I will let you go."
Su Ning's heart filed with joy. Fortunately, she was born beautiful, and the years did not leave any wrinkles on her face. She should be able to fool him.
Su Ning calmed down and walked towards him slowly.
Su Ning deliberately lifted her bangs, pointing to the corners of her eyes and forehead, "Look, do you see any wrinkles?" Shen Mingxuan reached out, but she continued: "No powder, look! There is absolutely no wrinkles!"
Seeing him stretch out his hand, Su Ning resisted the urge to dodge and let him stroke her face with his hand.
Seeing that he still didn't let her go, Su Ning could only bring it up by herself, she put down her bangs, and smiled apologetically to him: "Then can I go first? I still have homework left to do."
"Ah, how long do you want to play this boring game of 'recognizing the wrong person'?" Shen Mingxuan slowly said, "Or do you think I'm so stupid that I wouldn't even recognize the face of my own fiancée that I've been dating for four years?"
Su Ning was stunned.
He took her in his arms and whispered: "I was wrong before. I should never have given you any type of freedom, but this time, I will not repeat the same mistakes again. We will go back to the beach. I'll buy a villa, lock you in a room, chain you, and when you give birth to my child, of course I'll take the chain off, but don't think of taking a single step outside by yourself for the rest of your life. You lost that privilege."
"No, please don't." Su Ning couldn't help trembling, "You are breaking the law. You will be caught by the police. You will go to prison."
"They can try. Go and believe I will get caught."
Su Ning started to panic. She knew that Shen Mingxuan was not telling lies, can I really not escape this time?! No, No! I don't want this kind of life. What do I do!
Suddenly, Su Ning's eyes lit up and she remembered the system 555, which was previously known as omnipotent.
【Su Ning: 555, are you still there? Don't you want to bind with me? 】
【444: Senior 555 has left, I am 444.】
【Su Ning: Is there a difference? 】
【444: Senior 555 is not the same level as me, just a little higher, only a little bit, the difference is as slim as a fingernail.】
【Su Ning: Ok whatever, can you take me out of here? 】
【444: Of course, as long as the host binds with me, I can take you into the system space to pick up a task. 】
【Su Ning: Will my body go to? 】
【444: ...En. 】
【Su Ning: I will ask you two more questions. I heard 555 say before that after binding, you can travel through all kinds of space and time. Will there be an opportunity to enter a place like my my world? 】
【444: Of course there is! 】
【Su Ning: The second question is, what kind of tasks will I have to do, will there be a punishment if I fail to complete it? 】
【444: If you can't finish it, you can choose to give up and re-enter the system space to choose a different task. But if you do there will be no rewards. 】
【Su Ning: What if I don't finish the task and don't give up? 】
【444: Don't give up? Well, logically speaking, if you don't finish and you choose to not give up, you will stay in that world forever. According to world laws, you will grow old, get sick, and die. Basically, getting trapped in that world forever and living a normal life of old age.】
【Su Ning: That's all right, hurry up and bind with me! 】
Su Ning thought to herself, when the time comes and I enter one that's similar to my world, I won't do the task and I wont give up. I will be free!!
444 is very excited. It never thought that there would be a host that even Senior 555 couldn't bind with but it was able to. Because of it's unlucky name, all hosts assigned by the main system disliked it, and a system without a host cannot get points to upgrade. So even though it was one of the very first systems created, its level was very low. It never thought that one day it could successfully bind a host! Ying ying ying, it's so exciting.
【Su Ning: Is the binding done? 】
【444: It's done. 】
【Su Ning: Then hurry up and take me away! 】
【444: Not right now, you have to be alone before I can take you away. 】
Even in the car, Shen Mingxuan, who was holding her tightly in his arms, was taking a nap with his eyes closed.
Su Ning cautiously said, "Mingxuan, are you asleep?"
Shen Mingxuan opened his eyes and looked at her. "What's the matter?"
"I want to go to the toilet..." Seeing that he didn't respond, only looking at her silently, Su Ning immediately raised three fingers and said: "I swear! I just want to go to the toilet I won't run away!"
Shen Mingxuan pulled her hand back and squeezed it in his palm, "Okay."
"Park at that hotel."
The driver nodded.
Standing at the door of the toilet, Shen Mingxuan pressed her shoulders and looked directly into her eyes.
"I own this hotel, and the window is guarded. If you dare try and escape, you won't want to know the consequences."
Su Ning nodded obediently.
"I won't run away."
Only then did Shen Mingxuan let her in.
After half an hour, Shen Mingxuan finally couldn't calm down. He walked in and kicked open door by door, but she had long since disappeared.
···
Su Ning only felt a dizziness in her head. After she woke up, she was sitting on a stool in an antique room. There were some desserts on the table. Sitting across from her was a charming women. The woman was in a ancient costume, and dressed very delicately, but her mouth was always talking.
"Although your appearance is not good, you have to make good use of this opportunity to enter the palace. Your older sister is now an imperial concubine and can take care of you in the palace..."
"You are the only girl to enter the emperor's palace this year. The emperor will definitely call you to serve in bed. When the moment comes to give birth to a child, remember to place the child under your sister's name..."
"You must not complain about it. You have to know that the child of the imperial concubine can get more than the child of a little noble person."
