When Jiang Sui left, he laid Su Qing on the bed.
No matter how hard she punched and kicked him,
He still managed to bite the tip of Su Qing's ear.
Su Qing bit her lip and tucked her head into the quilt, her fingers gripping the sheets tightly.
How dare he?
How dare he?
She covered herself for the better part of an hour.
Until her phone kept ringing, ringing, ringing.
The ringing was so loud that the girl's head was a bit irritated.
Su Qing dug into her pocket and pulled out her phone. Undoubtedly, all the calls came from that unruly boy.
[Don't be shy! Time to get out from under the covers, or you'll get a rash.]
Su Qing bit her lip and glanced around, feeling like she was being watched.
How did he know she was under the covers?
[Su Qing, you've always known what I wanted, haven't you, good girl?]
The word "good girl" was said in a frivolous and uninhibited way.
[Su Qing, I'm excellent, can't you see?]
[Also, the test will be done tomorrow. I haven't done it yet. We'll do it together tomorrow afternoon when we get back tomorrow.]
...and so on, a series of text messages.
Su Qing closed her phone, feeling her face flush and her head a little hot. He always managed to mess her up. When did this start? Su Qing shook her head and walked into the bathroom.
In the mirror, the girl's delicate face, as beautiful as a flower, was flushed, and her lips were even more radiant.
No one needed to guess what had just happened. Su Qing turned on the faucet and sprayed a stream of cold water on her face. The icy touch made her shiver.
The coldness was both refreshing and stimulating.
Su Qing's mind flashed: could she, like a normal girl, have thoughts?
She had originally thought she would instinctively repel Jiang Sui's approach and intimacy.
However, when she noticed the boy approaching, she felt like a frog being boiled in warm water.
She found she wasn't repulsed as she'd imagined, not even disgusted. Instead, she felt a palpitation and a sense of absent-mindedness.
"You need to be more alert, Su Qing, understand."
She closed her eyes and prepared to take a shower.
The icy water poured over her head, sending a shiver through her body.
The cold pain from her wounds made Su Qing feel like herself again, no longer the blushing girl.
After a full half-hour cold shower, she emerged with a few more text messages on her phone.
She didn't look at it again.
She simply walked to the table, opened the test paper, and did a few more sets of questions before feeling reassured and going to bed.
She didn't know that Jiang Sui, next door, had also taken a cold shower.
The text message he sent seemed to have fallen on deaf ears, but the boy's smile remained.
Seeing that the phone displayed that tomorrow was Monday, he made a call.
"Ah Zhao, I'm going back to Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School tomorrow. Do you know that Li Xu?"
The boy's eyes were cold, his words tinged with seriousness. Only when the other party said something did his eyes lightly shift, and then he replied.
"Yes, okay, that's all right."
Then he hung up.
She had to go to Jiangcheng No. 1 Middle School.
She didn't think to go, and she didn't want to go.
That night, Su Qing had another nightmare in that long-lost place.
[Qing Qing, Daddy begs you.]
[Su Qing, do you want to be ruined?]
[Su Qing, give up! We'll help you transfer to another school.]
A whole night of dreams, filled with familiar yet unfamiliar faces...
