You said you hated men, why are your eyes now full of love?
Ch. 115 - "Oh, It's Fox Lady!" (Part 12)

Have you ever been submerged in seawater?

Suddenly, your body is thrown off balance. You choke as the salty water rushes up your nose. You flail around, trying to adjust your posture and regain your breathing rhythm.

Have you ever seen a surreal landscape that changes from high tide to low tide every ten minutes, as if caught between two worlds?

He had. He had experienced it firsthand and seen it with his own eyes.

Midnight. Zero hour.

On the pure white bedsheets, a vivid splash of red bloomed like a rose. It was striking and impossible to ignore.

Staring blankly at the ceiling, Ji Mu's eyes lost focus for a moment.

His deep brown pupils were like a lone boat lost in a vast, turbulent sea of desire.

Until a cool hand touched the top of his head and soft lips grazed his cheek.

His brow bone, the bridge of his nose, and his ear were all explored in a sucking, licking kiss.

He slowly regained his connection to the real world, drifting on a weightless boat, unable to land as it sailed back along the path of return.

The surroundings regained their colors and sounds.

"Good boy~"

Fingertips traced circles on his chest. Ruan Qingqing's soft voice was husky. "Did it feel good, hmm?"

Did it feel good?

Ji Mu laughed.

He found the situation too ridiculous to handle.

"Should you be the one asking me that, silly goose!"

Ten minutes of nonstop action – this was truly the definition of infinite firepower with no cooldown mode!

Even when he was left dazed, the other person refused to stop. They shook him awake and dragged him along to continue the intimate activities.

No matter how much he begged for mercy, it was all in vain. His voice eventually became hoarse from calling out.

But do you know what happened next?

Hey!

He had triggered some kind of strange switch in the other person.

The more he cried out in pain, the more excited the girl became. Her movements grew more intense and demanding.

For a tall, proud man to be dominated by a woman was humiliating enough, but to be treated with such disregard and disrespect was unbearable!

Ruan Qingqing lay weakly on top of him. Her eyes were veiled with a thin layer of moisture as she gazed at him unwaveringly. "It feels good," she said.

She still looked like the innocent, lovely good girl she had always been, but her words were enough to make one's face grow hot with embarrassment and their heart skip a beat with awkwardness.

"Good boy, you're so amazing. It's making me feel like I'm going to die from pleasure."

"You!!!"

Fate is fair, and the boomerang that often leaves people speechless has finally come back to hit Ji Mu himself.

"Don't look at me like that, good boy," Ruan Qingqing said, smiling sweetly.

Ruan Qingqing smiled sweetly.

Her smile was like a lush, vibrant peach blossom: bright, beautiful, and with a hint of pure, innocent sweetness.

"Otherwise, I won't be able to control myself."

This wasn't an empty threat.

Due to exhaustion, the boy's glare wasn't very intimidating. His peach-blossom-like eyes were still hazy with desire, making him more alluring and increasing his charm exponentially.

With just one glance, the evil fire that had been extinguished began to stir once again.

"... "

Sensing that the previous statement was not a joke, Ji Mu immediately turned his head away.

It was a choice made from the heart to obey.

"Good boy."

The girl patted him on the head.

Her tone was like that of someone training a dog.

Ji Mu: "... " 

I'll endure it!

Like King Goujian of Yue, who slept on brushwood and tasted bile, I'll tolerate this humiliation for a few minutes."

Once this "ancient evil" skill cools down, then...

Hmph!

Good boy."

Ruan Qingqing tidied up the boy's messy hair, her soft breath whispering against his ear as she did so.

"You're not counting down the time until you can use that strange ability again, are you?"

Her actions were intimate, and her tone was indulgent.

But Ji Mu was stiffer than if he had been electrocuted.

"How did you know?"

"Hehe~"

Ruan Qingqing snuggled into his arms, drawing out the tail end of her laughter.

"What will you do to me the moment you can use your ability again?"

"Take revenge on me and vent your frustrations? Or maybe you could take me back to your mom's house. Or..."

She paused, looking for a reaction from him.

"Knock me out and make a run for it?"

Her words were slow and deliberate, but the content of her questions sent a chill down Ji Mu's spine and made his blood feel like it had frozen in his veins.

The sense of relief he had felt just half a minute ago was completely gone.

Why did the target of his mission know the specifics of his "ancient evil" ability when he had never mentioned it before?

Had he exposed himself by using it too many times when he previously invaded her mental world?

His heart was filled with questions.

Cool hands covered his cheeks and forced him to look into the girl's bright red, eerie eyes.

"Good boy. Don't think about leaving me."

Her tone was gentle.

However, her expression gradually changed, and a flickering light appeared in her narrow, beautiful eyes. The light slowly condensed into a near-fanatical obsession.

"I won't give you the chance to do so."

Your fate was sealed the moment you provoked me."

"Isn't that what you said? If you think so, then do it."

"I wanted you, so I did it."

"But I'm an insatiable person. From now on, every day, every night, every month, for the rest of your life, I want to possess you!"

The hysterical, trembling vow was uttered amidst rapid, ragged breathing.

The heavy, loving emotions between the lines almost overflowed.

Tenderness and madness were like reflections in a two-way mirror: interdependent yet completely different.

Drip. Drip.

Tears fell onto his chest, splashing into tiny droplets and leaving behind a trail of wetness.

Tears welled up in her eyes as she lowered her head.

She left her mark on the boy's lips.

"I love you, Ji Mu."

...

The silver light traversed the muddy, wet streets and alleys.

The clock recorded the bittersweet, intertwined love story.

This confession poured out like a devout believer's most sincere prayer.

She was certain of the path she would take next.

Whether it was the flowers on the windowsill or the explosion of the universe,

Her conviction had been infused into her bones and blood and would never change.

…

Dong——

The ancient bell tolled once again.

The entire city fell into a static, motionless, dreamlike state.

The girl had activated only a quarter of her authority.

The hands on the clock rotated counterclockwise and the nighttime scene from the previous few hours began to replay like a rewound video.

The cooled water in the glass began to emit heat again. The disordered tables and chairs returned to their original, neat positions. The withered flowers were given another chance to bloom.

The entire world had pressed the rewind button.

This was time reversal.

…

"Mu Mu?"

"No need to knock. Just come in."

Creak—

The girl, who had changed into new clothes, walked into the bedroom, rubbing her wet hair.

The loose-fitting T-shirt and pants accentuated her slender, delicate figure, making her look smaller and more fragile. She exuded a different kind of vulnerability.

Ji Mu, who was playing a game, glanced at his good friend, who had just sat down.

He asked with concern, "Are you used to wearing these clothes?"

The girl responded with a soft "Mmm," her beautiful eyes sparkling with a gentle smile.

"It's quite comfortable, g—" She paused for a moment, and her voice remained soft and gentle. "Mu Mu."

She paused for a moment. Her voice remained soft and gentle. "Mu Mu."

"Ge?" 

(Note: "Ge" is a more formal or polite way of saying "older brother" or "big brother." In this context, however, it seems like Ji Mu is reacting to the term "ge," which is similar to "good boy" or "乖.")

Ji Mu's ears perked up at the sound of this word.

"Mmm, the clothes feel a bit weird."

Her pale face turned bright red.

She looked quite flustered.

Ji Mu suddenly understood the source of her discomfort.

Was it because of the clothes?

As expected of a "small white flower" female lead, even though you and your partner are soulmates, wearing boy's clothes still makes you feel shy.

Look at this temperament; it's really quite timid.

The system's commentary was a mix of emotions.

[After going through so much, she's still as sweet and gentle as when they first met. Who knows when she'll become stronger?]

[Although it's fortunate that she didn't become cunning and good at pretending like in her past life, she should still learn to protect herself.]

"Sigh..."

Ji Mu let out a deep sigh in complete agreement.

That girl, Ruan Qingqing...

"I'll talk to Aunt Ruan and her grandfather about this before I leave for Jiangcheng in a few days."

She was great in every way except for being too soft and gentle.

She really needed to toughen up.
