Lou Xi thought about the slightly damp toothbrush, then connected it to Qin Mobai saying earlier that he had already brushed his teeth.
"Young Master Qin, why did you use my toothbrush to brush your teeth?" Lou Xi was incredulous. With Qin Mobai’s picky nature, he actually used her toothbrush!
"Couldn’t find a new toothbrush just now."
If you couldn’t find it, you could have asked me!
But now saying these things is meaningless because they have already used the same toothbrush, and they have kissed before, so this is just another kiss.
Only this time, it’s indirect.
Lou Xi watched Qin Mobai walk toward the kitchen. She stood there frozen, letting out a deep sigh.
She really couldn’t figure out what kind of relationship she had with Qin Mobai now.
Friends?
Lovers?
Both seemed right, yet neither seemed right.
After drinking some water, Qin Mobai went to sleep. Lou Xi looked at the sofa, and an inexplicable melancholy washed over her. Was she really going to sleep on the sofa?
She was very upset because Qin Mobai closed the bedroom door tightly, as if she would break in during the night to force herself on him.
But Lou Xi couldn’t imagine the scene inside the room at this moment.
Returning to the room after drinking water, Qin Mobai looked at Lou Xi’s room.
The room was decorated in pastel pink, something he had arranged specifically. He thought girls should like such things.
He opened the closet, which held clothes they had previously bought together, and the drawers contained entire sets of underwear.
Everything was organized the way Qin Mobai had planned.
Finally, he lay on the bed and pulled off the bothersome bath towel, lying in Lou Xi’s bed.
...
In the middle of the night, Lou Xi felt a bit cold sleeping in the living room, but sleepiness overtook her, and she wasn’t interested in getting a blanket.
Later, she felt herself being lifted into a warm embrace, and because it was so warm, Lou Xi subconsciously snuggled closer.
Seeing the person sleeping soundly in his arms, Qin Mobai’s lips curled into a slight smile, and he carried her into the room, placing her on the bed and covering her with a quilt.
The rain outside had stopped, and Qin Mobai had no intention of leaving.
He leaned down, intending to kiss Lou Xi’s lips as a way to reclaim some benefits he thought he deserved.
As his lips touched her mouth, he heard a soft voice...
"Brother Rong..."
Suddenly, Qin Mobai’s body stiffened, and in the darkness, he looked at Lou Xi’s sleeping face.
Lou Xi certainly didn’t know that Qin Mobai had an impulse to strangle her.
"Thinking of Zhou Zichen when you provoke me, now you’re calling ’Brother Rong,’" Qin Mobai said coldly. "Do you want to keep testing my limits, hmm?"
Of course, no one answered Qin Mobai’s words while Lou Xi lay quietly asleep on the bed.
Seething with anger, Qin Mobai hurriedly dressed and left Lou Xi’s house.
