You said you hated men, why are your eyes now full of love?
Ch. 110 - "Oh, It's Fox Lady!" (Part 7)

He saw everything. He saw everything!

Were his eyes tainted now?

No, wait—he saw it when he was forced to wash her hair. He'd even tasted it. Doesn't that make it worse?

Although Ji Mu appeared calm and collected while playing his game, a tiny version of himself was crying bitterly in the depths of his heart.

Sweat beaded on his fingertips as he tried to stay calm and think through how to handle the situation.

He'd always felt that she lacked a sense of boundaries, but why was it getting worse?

Should I gently remind her?

Hmm, better not. No matter how I bring it up, it's bound to be awkward.

After much hesitation, Ji Mu decided to pretend he hadn't seen anything.

He subtly tilted his head to the left, shifting his line of sight just enough to keep the questionable scene out of his peripheral vision, just in case something else popped up that he shouldn't see again.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the bedroom remained eerily quiet.

Outside, the rain intensified.

Dense droplets pounded the city streets like a drumbeat, signaling that the storm had no intention of letting up anytime soon.

After stretching lazily, Ruan Qingqing fell silent. Her fingertips gently brushed the bedsheet as she silently speculated, testing the bed's weight and impact capacity in her mind.

The hem of her garment, which had been draped properly over the tops of her thighs, refused to return to its original position after that movement.

As for her attitude toward the accidental exposure...

Was it unintentional?

Of course not.

It was entirely deliberate.

The faint glimpse of hidden springtime allure teased the senses with every brush against the edge of propriety. This subtle provocation, dancing on the boundary, was a hundred times more potent than complete exposure.

The formation of desire has always been a subtle and imperceptible process. Sooner or later, the ambiguous torrent of restless thoughts and wandering intentions breaches the threshold of reason like a flood breaking through a dam.

When the air between them was thick with the unspoken signal of being alone together, the restlessness of adolescence budded and became an uncontrollable urge, impossible to suppress.

This is how Ruan Qingqing saw it, and it was also the method she used to seduce him.

But men could be so dense at times.

No, it was just him.

She could not remember ever acting like this in front of a man before. Twisting and posing like a withered flower desperate to bloom again and using every seductive trick in the book to draw his gaze.

What made it even more humiliating was the boy's utterly lifeless response from beginning to end.

Did he truly not see it? Or was he just pretending not to?

Either possibility was hard for Ruan Qingqing to accept.

In her line of sight, the boy leaned lazily against the headboard with half-lidded eyes. His long, thick lashes cast layered shadows, and the red mole beneath the corner of his eye drew attention like a magnet.

He was quiet when he played games, unlike others who would hurl vulgar outbursts in the heat of battle to vent their frustration and rage.

He seemed nonchalant yet oddly at ease, as if everything were well within his control.

This kind of indifferent, languid detachment made people want to tear through his exterior, eager to see the panic in his eyes and thrilled by the thought of shattering his composure.

She wanted to hear his clean, steady voice laced with suppressed, breathless desire. She wanted to see his Adam's apple bob with tension and his knuckles turn white from gripping too tightly. She wanted to see the veins on the back of his hand bulge and snake up his forearm.

Suddenly, memories flooded Ruan Qingqing's mind: the two of them in that desolate, spiritual world; their passionate kiss under the dark sky; and the boy's dazed, crimson-tinted eyes.

Ah~

Her desire transformed into a scorching aura that wound its way out of her mouth in an excited, faint sigh: "Haa."

It felt as though spiders were crawling all over her body, starting from her heart and spreading through her blood vessels. An unbearable, tingling sensation coursed through her. Eventually, the feeling converged on the most intimate part of her body, leaving her frustrated and annoyed.

As she sensed the unusual sensation emanating from a certain part of her body, she felt irritated and exasperated.

She was irritated by the boy's obliviousness; he was like a block of wood.

She was frustrated with herself for trying to flirt with him, only to find herself tempted and physically aroused.

Mu Mu, don't you have even the slightest desire for me?

She bit her lower lip as her longing surged endlessly, like lush aquatic plants growing in a river.

It was impossible to cut off or eradicate.

A bold, almost reckless impulse emerged, clouding her rationality, defying her will, and shattering her fragile yet proud self-esteem.

In a state beyond her control, her trembling fingertips reached into...

To make matters worse, it was all happening right in front of the boy.

"Mmm… uhn…"

Overcoming the obstacles of shame and restraint, she had reached a point of reckless abandon. The sensations that came with it were a different kind of stimulation.

While most people saw Ruan Qingqing as a clear, pristine river flowing through the mountains, at that moment, the veil of her usual restraint was torn apart, revealing a completely different side of her.

The ancient adage that "that which is too rigid will easily break" still holds true today. She had tried numerous times to calm her desires at night, but the more she suppressed them, the more they spread like wildfire. The accumulation of days finally led to a backlash.

Clatter—

Her phone slipped from her grasp, falling with a loud crash onto the ceramic tile floor. The crisp sound echoed through the room, joining the sound of the rain outside.

The boy's face froze in a mixture of incredulity and bewilderment.

The faint moans she had been trying to stifle were audible in the silent environment, and he only looked up because it was strange.

He hadn't expected that a single look would reveal everything.

The silly goose was actually... actually...

Ji Mu's mouth opened, and for a moment, he was rendered speechless by the shock overwhelming his vocal cords.

Their eyes met, and different emotions collided, stirring up ripples.

One was calm; the other was frozen in surprise.

"Weren't you playing games? Why are you looking at me suddenly, huh?"

The girl's lips curled into a gentle smile, and her eyes sparkled with a hint of coquetry and softness.

Her words and actions seemed overly composed and normal.

Ji Mu started to suspect that he might be hallucinating due to a fever.

Apart from being slightly flushed, the girl seemed perfectly fine.

He tried to come up with a reasonable explanation for his earlier shock. However, when his gaze fell upon the girl's fingers, which looked like they had just been pulled out of water, his mind went blank again.

It seemed possible that it wasn't an illusion after all!

"Ah, right. I was in a hurry and forgot to tell you."

The girl seemed to have suddenly remembered something. She picked up a black plastic bag that Ji Mu had seen in the living room a little while ago.

"I brought you a gift."

"A gift?"

He took it from her, still in a daze.

"Open it and see," she said. Her sweet, honey-like voice tempted him gently.

Up until now, Ji Mu had witnessed a series of events that defied worldly understanding since the girl's shower. Honestly, he couldn't muster any excitement for the gift.

With a mix of emotions, he slowly unwrapped the gift.

As he removed the black plastic bag, revealing the items inside, his eyes suddenly widened.

The bag was filled with an assortment of...

He stood frozen in place, like a person struck by lightning.

That's… a micro-sized condom?!

Ji Mu's lips trembled slightly.

He looked again, unsure, and his heart sank.

It was confirmed; they were indeed condoms!

"I didn't know your size, so I bought ten of each."

The girl smiled and lowered her eyebrows. "Do you like it, Mu Mu?"

Ji Mu was silent.

Was he touched?

Of course, he didn't dare move.

He maintained a wooden expression.

He appeared calm and unruffled on the surface.

But inside, he was...

"System! System!!! Where are you? Something's happened!"

[I'm here! I'm here!]

The system arrived in a timely manner.

[Don't panic, host. In my opinion, Ruan Qingqing has been censored with a mosaic since she entered the door. However, this doesn't affect my ability to infer what the female lead has done from your expression.]

[From what I can see, she's not acting normally right now!]

[Although I'm not sure what's wrong, we should put aside our platonic views and leave quickly. Wait, how did you get here, Fan Lei?]

[No! How did you enter my space? What the...?! What are you doing, Fan Lei?!]

[Calm down, Fan Lei! Let's talk this out. I know you're an old, lonely virgin with desires, but there's no need to act this way. Stop pulling down my pants!]

[I'm warning you, don't come any closer! If you do, I'll—]

[No! Not there!]

[Host, save me!]

The desperate cries were filled with despair.

Just listening to the conversation was enough to picture the scene.

Ji Mu's heart raced like a drum.

The situation was spiraling further out of control.

Everything happened too quickly. There was no time to react or devise a plan to deal with the situation.

By the time he came to his senses, he was already facing internal and external troubles, with enemies closing in on him from all sides.

"Mu Mu, how about we use up all the ones that fit you tonight?" The girl whispered in his ear, each word enunciated with deliberate clarity.

Her tone was soft and sweet, filled with a mixture of shy embarrassment and inviting innocence, making her sound both pure and alluring. It was as if she had cast a spell.

However, the more she spoke this way, the more panicked Ji Mu felt.

He strained to maintain his composure and prevent his emotions from leaking out.

"What do you mean, silly goose?!"

Ruan Qingqing still wore a gentle, soft smile.

"Can't you see, Mu Mu?"

She propped herself up on the bed with her hands, bent her knees, and slowly moved closer. Her slender, eyes shone with a warm, loving light, filled with tenderness and affection.

"I like you."
