“…”

His voice was husky and gentle but indifferent with a deadly attraction.

Xiang Wan felt numb and tried to face his gaze head-on. “I did this because of you,” she said a little sadly, “you’re angry about something, and it’s burning within you, yet you refuse to tell me about it. You’re unhappy all by yourself. Don’t you know that this is terrible for your health? I wanted to help you get rid of this fire anger, am I wrong to do so?”

“Very well.” Bai Muchuan stopped before Xiang Wan, who had no more space to run to and looked at him without moving. After looking at each other for a while, he raised his eyebrows and pulled her into his arms before blowing a puff of air at her ear. “Do you know that when a man has fire anger within him? How should you put it out?”

“With some cold water?”

Xiang Wan looked up at his face.

“Mm?” Bai Muchuan chuckled, but his voice sounded like it was freezing. “So what you did tonight, is that the ‘cold water’ you speak of?”

“How is this enough?” Xiang Wan finally mustered enough courage to look at him directly. “My motive for coming here today is exactly ‘to pour cold water on you’… Bai Muchuan, I know that you will not tell me anything no matter what. So I wanted to tell you personally… that if you continue to behave like this, you will lose me.”

Lose her?

Bai Muchuan embraced her tightly.

He had a faint smile on his face while he kept her restrained in this little space.

“Xiang Wan, do you think you can get away after provoking me like this?”

When Xiang Wan heard this, she couldn’t help feeling glad.

“Eh? This is strange.” She tugged at his clothes. “Aren’t you the one who didn’t want me anymore? When I said I want to give up on you, it’s just to save some face for myself, so why say such words to me?”

“When did I ever say that I don’t want you anymore?”

“Yeah, you didn’t say it in words.” Xiang Wan looked at him, her gaze was piercingly cold. “But your actions are colder than your words! That’s enough to express that across to me!”

“…”

Bai Muchuan found himself speechless for a moment.

Yeah, he could not refute her.

“Say something!” Xiang Wan gave a peck on his chin.

Although she seemed really annoyed, her expression actually provoked his sympathy.

Bai Muchuan’s heart went numb for a moment when she pecked on his chin. His gaze naturally fell at her collarbone. “Xiang Wan, I’ve already told you that day. I have some private matters to deal with, and I need to get over it myself. I will sort out my emotions. Give me a little more time, is that okay?”

“No!” Xiang Wan continued to kiss his chin, and when she saw him looking helpless against her, she decided to push her luck further and hung her legs on him. “I’m not a soft person. You either love me deeply, or we’ll part our ways. I don’t like the way our current relationship is heading!”

Part ways…

These two words agitated Bai Muchuan.

He let out a sneer. He removed her hands from his neck while holding her hip and threw her onto the bed.

Xiang Wan was taken unawares. Without waiting for her to react, he was on top of her and pinched her face sullenly.

“Don’t even think about it!”

“…” So domineering!

On what basis?

His breath tickled her neck so much, but she didn’t want to back down. “That’s not up to you! Choose one. Love each other and know each other or cut our ties completely and never see each other again!”

Bai Muchuan’s gaze deepened. “You really wanted to know?”

Xiang Wan instantly replied, “Yes!”

Bai Muchuan ruminated for a moment and took her chin. “Believe me,” he laughed bitterly. “If you got to know about it, you’d wish you would not know about it in the first place.”

Xiang Wan did not know what to say. “…”

What matter could be so serious?

It sounded like that matter was related to her.

Xiang Wan looked at his frosty eyes. “I feel that you shouldn’t make this decision for me!”

Bai Muchuan’s gaze seemed troubled. “It’s exactly because once the decision is made, there is no turning back, which is why it bothered me so much!”

Once the decision is made…

… There is no turning back?

Was he so sure that she wouldn’t be able to accept it?

Xiang Wan squinted her eyes in thought. “Bai Muchuan, you’ve successfully whetted my appetite!”

“Is that so?” Bai Muchuan showed a serious smile. “That’s right, you have to make sure you are to my appetite consistently.”

“…”

Wasn’t that too much!?

Xiang Wan couldn’t refute in time. Her body quivered suddenly, and she let out a soft scream as though she suffered an electric shock.

“Bai Muchuan…”

“Shush! This dorm is not exactly soundproof…” He was kissing her; his warm breath accompanied his voice as his lips moved gently all over her. It was easy to pull her into the abyss of desire while turning an argument into a thrilling, intense scene…

“Bai… Mu… Chuan….”

Xiang Wan was gasping for air; his passionate kisses totally conquered her.

“Mm.” He licked his lips devilishly, his dark eyes glistening. Their breaths mingled, and it felt warm like flames. “Xiang Wan,” his behavior was that he did not allow her to reject him. “Give me a little more time, alright?”

“Hmm…”

He lowered his head, making her unable to refuse him.

“Xiang Wan, I want you.”

“Mm? Ah…”

“Now.”

Xiang Wan heard her own heartbeat pounding at her ears, His closely packed, scorching hot kisses fell fast on her forehead; on the tip of her nose and on her cheeks… His faint pleasant scent after a bath had a smell of hormones that rushed into her nose, gnawing at her heart and finally sent her senses flying.

Flying.

Umm, flying.

Senses could fly in such a manner…

The clouds seemed like it was within reach.

Her head was blank.

She forgot.

Everything.

Except him.

…

Xiang Wan woke up in Bai Muchuan’s dormitory the next morning.

The sky was already bright.

The room was filled with gentle light rays.

It felt warm.

Mm, the best remedy for a couple was to sleep together. It was a saying passed down since ancient times. Indeed, that made sense.

There was nothing that a sleep together couldn’t settle.

If once was not enough, then do it twice.

The only thing was… her waist!

She felt as if her waist was twisted like a rope, and was being squeezed here and there.

Tsk! Xiang Wan rubbed her aching waist and let out a yawn as she left the bed. She then drew the curtains open.

Outside, it was a silvery world.

It had snowed heavily last night.

The pure-colored snow covered the branches of the trees in the garden, and it looked so beautiful.

Generally, when those from the south went to a city in the north of the country, they would be unusually excited to see snow, especially heavy snow.

Since Xiang Wan was not feeling good over Bai Muchuan’s behavior, for the past few days, her attention was not on the snow.

Now she looked at the snow, it felt especially beautiful to her.

Xiang Wan stretched herself. She felt so much more comfortable!

She did not make a wasted trip last night. Although she did not know what exactly was the matter troubling Bai Muchuan, their relationship was finally moving forward, and he had promised to get his act together soon.

Xiang Wan was not an unreasonable person.

No one could be everything in another’s life.

Every individual has their own personality and thoughts.

It had nothing to do with love.

She respected that Bai Muchuan had his own little secret…

… And allowed him to have his own little emotional mood swing for a short time.

As long as it would not affect their feelings for each other, it would be fine.

Since she wanted to spend the rest of her life together with him, there would be a lot of things she had to be magnanimous about. Think about this in another way, as long as he didn’t have a mistress, an illegitimate kid, or the mistress wanted to seek her out, everything else was trivial.

After brushing her teeth and washing her face, Xiang Wan changed out of Bai Muchuan’s shirt and changed into the clothes which she wore yesterday. Then she called him and spoke in a sweet voice.

“Hello, Darling! Good morning!”
