The next moment, Shen Bu seemed to wake up suddenly, turning his head and his Adam’s apple moving as he squeezed out a few words through difficulty, “It’s okay, you can go now.”

Seeing his reaction, Wan Tong knew that she couldn’t stay long, so she stood up.

“I’ll leave now. If you’re still uncomfortable, just call me, okay?”

She spoke softly, just about to turn around and leave when a large, hot hand grabbed her hand.

Then she was pulled back by a force, and fell into the bathtub.

She let out a cry of surprise, realizing that she was now leaning against Shen Bu’s body, both of them submerged in the cold water.

She gasped for air and turned her head slightly, but before she could say anything, her chin was gripped by a hand…

In an instant, Shen Bu lowered his head and bit her lips.

He didn’t use much force, nor did he display any skill, more like he was instinctively grasping for the cold breath…

After a few minutes, Wan Tong ran out of the bathroom in a frenzy, slammed the door shut, and then crouched down against the nearby wall, her body trembling.

She covered her face with both hands, her mind still in a state of confusion.

She had just been pulled into the bathtub by Shen Bu and forcibly kissed by him??

Her breathing became rapid, and her eyes were in a panic. She only remembered her own name and had no previous memories, and the original owner had no experience in this area, so she was left in a blank state when Shen Bu kissed her.

She stood up to leave but suddenly heard faint sounds of a male panting and the slight sound of water coming from the bathroom.

In an instant, certain inappropriate scenes flooded into her mind.

She widened her eyes and didn’t know how long had passed before she came back to her senses and quickly left the room, stumbling as she did so.

As soon as she closed the door, she saw Su Ruojing standing at the stairway.

He didn’t look too good, with dust all over him, and his eyes were not as cold as usual.

“Brother, why are you here?” Wan Tong asked in surprise.

Su Ruojing first saw the wet clothes sticking on her body, then his gaze fell on her slightly swollen lips, where there was an obvious bite mark.

He clenched the hand hanging by his side and his gaze darkened slightly.

He rushed over as soon as he saw the news online that she had been injured and admitted to the hospital after getting off the plane, but who knew he would see her in such a state.

She and that trainee, are they really together?

“Go change your clothes first,” he said.

Wan Tong was startled and looked down at herself. She was indeed a mess. She hurried back to her own room, forgetting to ask him how he managed to get in.

After taking a shower and changing her clothes, Wan Tong came out to see Su Ruojing standing in front of her window. His tall and erect figure, even just his back, gave her immense pressure.

Su Ruojing turned around when he heard her footsteps and looked at her left arm. “What did the doctor say?”

“The wound is not deep, just bled a little. I didn’t need stitches,” she said. She had just wrapped her arm with a towel, making it look less scary.

“Do you have a first aid kit?”

Wan Tong shook her head. She didn’t remember having one.

“I’ll take you to the hospital,” Su Ruojing walked over, his eyebrows slightly furrowed, his tone leaving no room for negotiation.

Wan Tong quickly shook her head and stepped back a few steps. “I don’t need to go to the hospital. I’ll have the bodyguard bring back some medicine later.”

She was also worried about Shen Bu, so she didn’t want to go to the hospital tonight. She would ask Xiao Cen to bring her some medicine later. He knew a little about medical knowledge.

Su Ruojing looked at her stubborn little face, still serious. “We can’t delay any longer. Do you want to walk yourself, or do you want me to carry you?”

Wan Tong: “…”

These people just bully her for being petite!

“I really can’t leave, I have to take care of A’Bu,” Wan Tong said, her index fingers intertwined, hesitant.

In theory, she shouldn’t refuse him so directly when he cared so much about her, but she really couldn’t leave.

“A’Bu?” Su Ruojing repeated the name, his expression inscrutable. “Do you really like a little boy who hasn’t even grown all his hair yet?”

Hearing Su Ruojing’s description, Wan Tong’s face stiffened for a moment, then a blush crept onto her cheeks.

The scene from earlier kept playing in her mind. Even though it was a big shot being controlled by drugs and forced unconsciously, she still felt like an older person preying on a younger one.

“No, no, I see him as a little brother,” Wan Tong said, the last two words sounding guilty.

Obviously, Su Ruojing didn’t believe her. At such a close distance, he could even clearly see the teeth marks on her lower lip.

Would a little brother do something like this to her?

A trace of anger flashed in Su Ruojing’s eyes, but he suppressed it and only his aura turned a few degrees colder.

Wan Tong shrank her shoulders and innocently stared with a pair of eyes, just about to speak, but the door was pushed open.

“Wantong…” Shen Bu walked in, his voice still with a bit of a husky feeling.

He had already changed out of his wet clothes and was wearing a beige cartoon home outfit.

Previously, Wan Tong had bought a set, but later he said he liked it, so she bought him a men’s version.

His black hair was still wet and dripping, and the redness on his face hadn’t subsided yet, making him look a bit more youthful, like an extremely pure child.

However, Wan Tong couldn’t forget that just now, she thought of inappropriate things toward such a child…

She instinctively avoided his gaze, then went into the bathroom and fetched a clean towel for him.

Approaching him, she tiptoed and draped the towel over his head, whispering, “Dry your hair first.”

Su Ruojing, who witnessed everything, lifted the corners of his mouth coldly.

At this moment, Wan Tong turned to look at him and hesitated before speaking, “Brother, it’s late at night, would you like to go back and rest first?”

She didn’t see it, but as Wan Tong reached for the towel, Shen Bu caught it gently and lifted his eyelids to stare back at Su Ruojing. He showed no fear as he met Su Ruojing’s cold gaze, then lightly curved his lips into a sinister arc.

This was provocation, and it was also a show of arrogance.

Su Ruojing understood it well.

He felt disdain in his heart, but was not surprised to be provoked by Shen Bu.

He was a man, and he could sense how deeply this guy named Shen Bu desired to possess Wan Tong.

Meanwhile, Wan Tong perhaps still didn’t know his true nature and thought he was pure and innocent!

“Wantong, Brother just came back to the country and didn’t have time to book a hotel. Can I stay here for one night?” Su Ruojing stated plainly.

Of course, Wan Tong wouldn’t refuse, so she nodded and said, “Sure, there’s a guest room…”

She was about to take Su Ruojing to the guest room when Shen Bu suddenly grabbed her wrist and whispered softly, “Jiejie1, let me bandage it first.”

Perhaps it was the first time she had heard Shen Bu call her “jiejie”, but Wang Tong was momentarily stunned. After what happened in the bathroom earlier, hearing him call her “jiejie” like this made her feel a sense of shame…

Such a tender grass.2

She composed herself and then noticed that Shen Bu was holding a small medicine box in his hand.

“Oh, we have medicine at home?” She asked in surprise.

Shen Bu’s black eyes brightened at the mention of a certain word in her question. “I asked Auntie to prepare it beforehand.”

“A’Bu, you’re amazing,” Wan Tong praised with a smile.

Su Ruojing took a few steps forward and reached out to grab the medicine box, “Let me do it.”

But Shen Bu didn’t let go, just replied indifferently, “No need, I can do it.”

The two were about the same height, but Su Ruojing was more masculine, even in a black suit, his tight muscles were visible, his short hair accentuated his handsome and spirited appearance, full of testosterone. Meanwhile, Shen Bu was dressed in warm and gentle beige, with wet and messy black hair and a fair and handsome face…

From Wan Tong’s perspective, the scene of the two of them had an indescribable beauty.

Clearing her throat, she spoke up, “Brother, let me take you to the guest room to rest first. It’s okay with Shen Bu here.”

Su Ruojing naturally let go of the medicine box when Wen Tong said so. He also noticed the strange look Wan Tong gave him, as if he and Shen Bu had some kind of secretive relationship.

“Let’s deal with the wound first, I’ll watch from the side,” he said.

He didn’t want to give Wan Tong and Shen Bu any chance to be alone together.

Wan Tong nodded and sat down on a chair next to him, while Shen Bu sat opposite her.

She unwrapped the towel and gauze to reveal a shallow wound about the length of a finger, which had turned a bit pale probably because it had been soaked in water.

Silently, Shen Bu helped her re-treat the wound with skilled movements, with a hint of guilt in his eyes.

Wan Tong could understand. After all, he was an orphan who had always taken care of his own injuries.

Thinking of this, she felt a little sour in her heart, feeling sorry for the great man.

Beside her, Su Ruojing pursed his lips and asked about her injury.

On the internet, it was only reported that she and her former manager were injured and sent to the hospital, and that the police had been alarmed, but no one knew what had actually happened.

Bringing up this matter, Wan Tong also looked at him and reminded him with concern, “It’s Li Xu’s younger brother. He said he wants revenge. Brother, be careful.”

Seeing the concern in her eyes, Su Ruojing’s face cleared slightly, and he whispered, “I didn’t expect him to be a madman. Don’t worry, I will take care of him.”

At the end of his words, a hint of determination and coldness flashed in his eyes.

Wan Tong paused for a moment, hesitated and spoke, “Take care of him?”

Having been abroad for a long time, did he get involved with the underworld and have to kill someone?

It seems that Su Ruojing has seen through Wan Tong’s thoughts. Su Ruojing rarely showed a smile, and his rough and big palm suddenly covered her head and gently rubbed it. “Don’t worry, brother is just a serious businessman.”

However, after two seconds, he naturally withdrew his hand, and he noticed that Shen Bu’s bandaging movement paused in his peripheral vision.

At this point, he felt even better.

Wan Tong also felt a little uneasy about her guess and smiled foolishly. Suddenly, she felt a tightness in her small arm, accompanied by a slight pain.

She looked down at her arm, and a pair of clearly visible knuckles were wrapping gauze around it for her.

“A’Bu, it’s too tight, it’s a bit uncomfortable,” she spoke up.

“Okay,” Shen Bu responded and started to wrap again.

“Now it’s okay,” Wan Tong smiled and enthusiastically said, “A’Bu, A’Bu, I want a bow, can you make one?”

As Shen Bu listened to her cheerful voice, the straight line of his lips finally curved upward.

He gently tied a bow and looked up at her, asking, “Like this?”

“That’s not a bow,” Wan Tong shook her head, dissatisfied.

She had tried five or six different styles, and she was starting to suspect that Shen Bu didn’t even know what a bow was.

Su Ruojing, who was next to them, noticed something and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes. He spoke up, “I know how to make a bow, let me do it?”

Shen Bu snorted lightly from his nose and in the next moment, his long fingers wrapped the gauze into a beautiful bow.

“Jiejie, is this the kind of bow you wanted?” he asked.

When he called her “jiejie”, the second syllable was very light, as if his tongue quickly touched the roof of his mouth, inexplicably seductive.

Wan Tong was stunned for a moment, and when she saw the bow in his hand, she nodded and said, “A’Bu is amazing.”

Shen Bu smiled at her, his black eyebrows and eyes like a painting, vivid and lively.

After seeing Su Ruojing off to his guest room, Wan Tong returned to her own room.

She didn’t expect to find Shen Bu still in her room. He was sitting cross-legged on the white carpet, the towel thrown to the side, and his hair was still wet.

From afar, she thought Shen Bu looked peaceful and beautiful like an angel.

She didn’t expect him to have such a dramatic change in temperament after filming a few episodes of the show. His clean and pure appearance made her afraid to speak too loudly.

She approached him with a towel and gently wiped him dry.

Shen Bu suddenly spoke up, “My hair has grown out.”

“What?” What hair has grown out?

It took a while for Wen Tong to realize that he was referring to the earlier comment made by Su Ruojing about him being a “kid whose hair hasn’t grown out yet.”

“Oh,” she suppressed a smile and replied.

Just from this seemingly pointless clarification, she felt that he was quite childish.

And, isn’t he obediently calling her “jiejie” now?

“A’Bu, is there still any discomfort in your body?” After asking this question, even she couldn’t help blushing. The scene in the bathroom would always come to her mind.

But she tried to hypnotize herself to forget it.

Shen Bu shook his head lightly and closed his eyes slightly, but his ears couldn’t help turning red.

He couldn’t forget that soft and sweet feeling.

Subconsciously, he lightly touched his lips with his index finger.

Seeing his normal reaction and no sense of embarrassment, Wan Tong felt relieved, but the next second, she saw him touching his lips with his hand.

Whether he did it unintentionally or not, Wan Tong’s face turned red with embarrassment.

Why did she feel like he was savoring the moment?

No, no, it couldn’t be. It must be her imagination.

A’Bu is a pure and innocent good kid. After all, on the first day, she almost saw him naked, but he didn’t even realize it…

Suddenly, Wan Tong remembered that his favorability for Lin Jin’er seemed to have increased at the dinner party, so she asked, “A’Bu, what else happened at the dinner party?”

Shen Bu slowly opened his eyes, a fierce glint flashing past. “Lin Jin’er was there, and I had a few drinks.”

From beginning to end, Lin Jin’er never touched her phone, and no one gave her any information. How did she suddenly get the news and leave early?

He had wanted to use this opportunity to make Lin Jin’er suffer a bit and maybe even bring down the program group. He couldn’t accept the days of only seeing Wan Tong every three days, nor could he accept the way she spoke softly and kindly to other trainees.

However…

Shen Bu felt the gentle force in his hair, and his eyes softened again.

He preferred this result now.

That woman, Lin Jin’er, he would deal with her sooner or later.

“Lin Jin’er drugged you, right?” Wan Tong asked knowingly.

“Right,” Shen Bu clearly didn’t want to bring up Lin Jin’er.

Wantong stopped asking, and at that moment, Shishi suddenly reminded her, [Tongtong, Shen Bu’s liking for Lin Jin’er increased by 10 points at the dinner party, but then it decreased by 20 points. I suspect that the boss is just pretending to be interested in her.]

[Can acting control someone’s favorability?] Wan Tong found it miraculous.

[Isn’t acting about deceiving oneself first?]

Shishi’s words made sense. Wan Tong’s mood suddenly improved inexplicably. Indeed, how could Lin Jin’er possibly capture Shen Bu’s heart?

Lost in her thoughts, Wan Tong finished drying Shen Bu’s hair and then asked him to go rest in his room.

However, Shen Bu stood barefoot on the carpet, looking down at her with a somewhat pitiful tone, “Jiejie, can I sleep on the floor here, if I’m alone…”

He didn’t finish his sentence, but Wan Tong had already automatically supplemented it in her mind.

After all that he had been through, he probably had some psychological trauma, and he must be very scared to be alone.

So she pointed to her own bed and said, “Shen Bu, you sleep on the bed, and I’ll sleep on the tatami by the window.”

She definitely wouldn’t let him sleep on the floor, but he was too tall to sleep on the tatami or the sofa, so she let him sleep on the bed.

With her own blanket, Wan Tong went to the window.

After all the commotion, Wan Tong was exhausted. She had planned to surf the internet for a while and check out the day’s hot topics, but after holding her phone for a while, she fell asleep.

It’s unclear how much time passed, but eventually, Shen Bu rolled over and got out of bed, coming to her side.

He took her phone from her hand and placed it to the side, then half-knelt down and lifted her up along with the blanket, gently placing her back onto the bed.

Wan Tong remained sound asleep and didn’t notice anything. She even snuggled her pillow and let out a soft moan.

Shen Bu reached out to turn off the bedside lamp and then climbed onto the bed, lying down beside the petite body.

He couldn’t calm down again, and he wondered if it was the lingering effect of the medicine. He propped himself up with his elbow and gazed at the white jade-like cheeks and the thin lips of Wan Tong under the moonlight coming in through the window.

Without much thought, he leaned down and tasted her lips, just like he did not long ago…

Wan Tong who slept drowsily felt suffocated, as if bothered by mosquitoes. She wanted to open her eyes, but couldn’t resist the heavy drowsiness.

Eventually, she turned over and hugged a warm teddy bear, burying her face in it, and finally fell asleep soundly.

Waking up to the sound of birds chirping in the courtyard, Wan Tong opened her eyes in a daze and subconsciously held onto her “teddy bear” to snuggle.

But the different sensation made her pause, and she looked closer to find a lazy little cat on beige pajamas.

She looked up and saw the handsome sleeping face of Shen Bu.

Those amazing eyelashes lightly covered his eyes.

She didn’t care how she got on the bed, she just wanted to slip away before he woke up.

But at this moment, she was resting her head on his arm, and his other arm was draped over her waist…

Sure enough, before she could escape to pretend innocence, Shen Bu opened his eyes, the unfocused pupils making him look a bit lazy and dazed.

As guilt arose in her again, Wan Tong suddenly got out of his arms and scooted backward, quickly pulling the blanket over Shen Bu’s body. “A’Bu, last night I…”

“I don’t mind,” Shen Bu interrupted her, sitting up and continuing, “Anyway, I am yours.”

Wan Tong: “…”

Yes, it was all because of that card that made Shen Bu think she was buying his body…

However, seeing how calm Shen Bu was, Wan Tong felt that she was being overly dramatic. Their clothes were still on and nothing happened… She didn’t need to explain anything.

So she yawned and stretched lazily, then got out of bed.

“A’Bu, you go back to sleep. I’ll go freshen up first.”

Seeing that Wan Tong had come to terms with everything, Shen Bu, with slightly tousled black hair, tilted his head slightly, and the black pupils reflected a faint clarity. “Okay.”

It was also because he tilted his head that Wan Tong actually saw a dark red mark on his neck!

She opened her mouth, her throat feeling a little hoarse.

God, what did she do last night?

However, she pretended like she hadn’t seen anything and quickly ran into the bathroom.

When she was changing her clothes, she was also very nervous and her mind was in chaos. Naturally, she didn’t notice in the mirror that there were several red marks scattered on her back, and when her black hair was lifted, a faint dark red color could even be seen on the back of her neck.

1 姐姐 (Jiějiě) = older sister, or generally used to call woman older than oneself. Sorry, but I just felt Shen Bu calling Wan Tong Jiejie is cuter than “Sister”, so I left it be.

2 Meaning that Wan Tong felt Shen Bu is still so young.
