Chapter 823: Untitled

“Let me smell you. Why do you smell funny?” Su Jiu said, leaning toward him, sniffing vigorously.

Rong Si had just showered, so he smelled of nothing but the shower gel, let alone the perfume of a woman.

Su Jiu’s gesture left Rong Si feeling helpless. “Idiot.”

Su Jiu raised her eyes and glared at him. “You’re the idiot! You still haven’t told me what you’ve been up to today. Did you hook up with another girl and then shower as soon as you got back?”

Based on her experience from watching television dramas, Su Jiu knew that those scumbags who flirted with women would shower immediately after returning, afraid that they would be caught smelling perfume.

When this thought came to her mind, Su Jiu’s heart suddenly ached sourly as if she had knocked over a whole bottle of vinegar.

Seeing that the little girl’s mood seemed to have suddenly fallen and the way she looked at him had become a little resentful, Rong Si got even more embarrassed. He hesitated and answered, “I went to the gym.”

Su Jiu was surprised. “The gym?”

“Yeah.” Rong Si nodded seriously.

Seeing no sign of lying on his face, Su Jiu asked, “Then why didn’t you tell me when I called you this morning? It’s not like going to the gym is something to be ashamed of. Why didn’t you?”

The question stopped him dead in his tracks.

Could he say that he didn’t know how to face her?

At that moment, Rong Si’s gaze landed on the collar of her shirt. His sharp eyes noticed the strawberry mark hidden by her collar. His eyes darkened and his ears heated up.

His thin lips pursed. The young man didn’t know how to explain it to her.

“Tell me, why did you go to the gym? And for the entire day!” Su Jiu continued to question him.

Faced with her angry little face and her questioning, Rong Si couldn’t take it anymore. He could only say, “To vent.”

Su Jiu was speechless.

Have I heard right?

Vent?

For some reason, Su Jiu suddenly felt her heart beating a little faster as if she understood what he meant. However, she still asked casually, “W-What’s happened?”

“It’s nothing.” Rong Si averted his eyes and looked away. “I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to sleep if I didn’t.”

Last night, he had been too agitated to sleep.

However, he did not feel tired at all today. He was still agitated.

Hearing him say that, Su Jiu became even more determined. The little villain had most likely been pretending the previous day. Then, because he did something impudent to me, he could not calm down and could not sleep?

And because of that, he was too embarrassed to meet me today, so he was avoiding me, right?

She felt a sudden urge to laugh. Should she call the little villain shameless or innocent?

What happened the previous night was indeed something only a shameless person could do. And what happened today was something only a shameless person wouldn’t do.

Seeing Rong Si’s increasingly embarrassed expression, Su Jiu smiled slyly and deliberately leaned closer to him. She asked softly, “Big Brother, why couldn’t you sleep? Can you tell me?”

She suddenly approached him. His shadow was reflected in those big clear eyes. Rong Si’s eyes flickered again.

He took an involuntary step back, his throat working. “Perhaps,” he said diffidently, “I’m not used to this place.”

“Really? Big Brother, are you sure it’s because you can’t sleep because you’re not used to it? Or is it because you’ve done something bad?”

Su Jiu smiled even more slyly. Every time this happened, her eyes would form crescents, and they would sparkle like countless stars.

Rong Si couldn’t help feeling entranced. However, when he thought of the “something bad” she had just said, he quickly snapped out of it. His thin lips moved, but they quickly stuck together again.

For the first time, he felt that he was surprisingly bad with words.

It was all he could do to feign calm. “What kind of bad thing?”

‘You were the one who did it. Why are you asking me?’ Su Jiu said deliberately.

“…”

“What’s wrong? Don’t you want to admit it or can’t remember?” Su Jiu placed a hand under her chin and pretended to think. “Well, maybe I remembered wrongly. The person who did something bad yesterday might not be you, but Han Siye!”

Rong Si’s eyes darkened a little.

He didn’t like hearing other boys’ names from her.

Su Jiu knew that her words would have an effect, but since he had not admitted it, it meant that she had not provoked him enough. She continued, “Why don’t I go and ask him now?”

She started to turn away, but before she could take another step, Rong Si grabbed her wrist and pulled her back.

Caught off guard, Su Jiu fell into his arms. Her forehead hit his sharp jaw, and it hurt. She gasped and quickly covered it.

Raising her eyes, she glared at him resentfully. “Rong Si! Let’s talk this out. You don’t need to be so rough!”

Rong Si also felt that he hadn’t controlled his strength well, but he didn’t let go of her hand. Instead, he raised his other hand and gently massaged her sore forehead.

His fingers were warm as if they had some kind of charm. After he touched it, the spot on her forehead stopped hurting.

When he was finished, he looked down into her eyes. A rare hint of dominance appeared in his usually calm tone. “You can’t go to him.”

Su Jiu was speechless.

Has he been infected by Li Mohan? Why is he so domineering?

She pouted and said defiantly, “Do you think that if you say so, then I’ll have to follow. Who are you to tell me what to do?”

“It’s just not allowed.”

“Give me a reason!” Su Jiu looked up at him and demanded.

Rong looked at her deeply and quietly tightened his grip on her hand. Then he said something that made him feel shameless.

“Because you kissed me yesterday. Now you have to take responsibility for me.” So, how could she find another man?

Wh… What?

The little villain actually said that he wants me to be responsible for him?

Su Jiu was stunned for a few seconds, wondering if she had heard wrongly.

She immediately retorted, “When… when did I kiss you? It was clearly you—”

Su Jiu was too embarrassed to say it out loud. Her face turned red.

Rong Si’s ears were red, but he maintained his composure. He raised an eyebrow. “What about me?”

“You…” Su Jiu was embarrassed and said angrily, “Don’t you know what you’ve done?”

“I was drunk yesterday. I don’t remember a lot of things.” When he saw her eyes widen in shock, his eyes inadvertently lit up with amusement. “I only remember that you kissed me.”

Su Jiu was astonished.

Good God, is he twisting the truth to make it worse?

The little villain has changed. Really changed. Could someone please tell me where that incredibly innocent and kind good boy has gone?
