Xu Youning shrank back and shook her head. “I mean—if I’m given a second chance, I won’t do it again.”

Mu Sijue smirked, and his eyes were full of sarcasm. It was obvious that he didn’t believe Xu Youning’s words.

Xu Youning shrugged and added, “Anyway, I can’t succeed. Why waste the strength?”

The reason was not pleasant to the ears, but Mu Sijue’s face looked a little nicer, and he ordered in a deep voice, “Get up!”

After the meal, Xu Youning was forcefully handcuffed in the room by Mu Sijue again, so she could only stare at the ceiling in boredom.

She waited and waited until it was 10 o’clock. Mu Sijue finally came back. She pulled on the handcuffs and said, “I want to take a shower.”

Mu Sijue replied coldly, “You only have five minutes.”

A girl taking a shower in five minutes?

Either he had no humanity left or he wanted to perform anti-human behavior!

Xu Youning asked provokingly, “What if it takes me more than five minutes?”

Mu Sijue looked at his watch and said with a poker face, “Your nonsense has already wasted 10 seconds.”

Had he started counting down already?

“Damn it!”

Xu Youning was almost pissed off. She jumped up and rushed into the bathroom as fast as she could.

She could swear that her speed was absolutely comparable to that of a 12th-level typhoon. Finally, she put on her clothes at the last second.

It was almost at the same time that Mu Sijue opened the door and walked in. He looked at Xu Youning coldly and ordered, “Get out.”

After the order was given, Mu Sijue began to take off his clothes, regardless of how sexy his body was.

Xu Youning called him a pervert in her heart and ran out of the bathroom with her head down. Only then did she realize that the pervert Mu Sijue didn’t handcuff her.

Did he forget? Or was he sure that she wouldn’t be able to escape?

Xu Youning lay on the bed in confusion. It didn’t take long before Mu Sijue came out.

He wiped his hair with a white towel and inadvertently exposed his well-defined abdominal muscles. The lines of his shoulders and neck were sexy and smooth, and his body was so attractive that anyone would want to pounce on him at any moment.

However, it was a pity that he was Mu Sijue, a devil, not a teenager in a comic whose legs were long and soft. Xu Youning could only silently give up the idea of getting on top of him.

After drying his hair, Mu Sijue casually put aside the used towel, lifted the quilt, and lay down in bed.

For a moment, some hot and chaotic memories came to Xu Youning’s mind. She kept moving backwards to the other side of the bed, and it was hard to hide her fear.

Mu Sijue noticed Xu Youning’s movements. He stretched out his slender legs and held her down stably. “Sleep.”

Xu Youning struggled and protested, “How can I sleep with you pressing me like this?”

Mu Sijue slowly turned to look at Xu Youning and asked, “How about that? Isn’t it enough?”

“It’s not enough… not enough…”

In Xu Youning’s mind, she wasn’t shy, but she still couldn’t stand Mu Sijue’s words. Her cheeks were burning hot. She closed her eyes obediently and didn’t dare to put up any more resistance.

She deeply felt that in terms of being a pervert, Mu Sijue was invincible in this world.

He’d better never give her a chance to suppress him.

Otherwise, she would definitely let Mu Sijue know who “the best in the world in pressing” was.

Although the posture was not very comfortable, Xu Youning still fell asleep in the end.

The next day, when she opened her eyes, she found herself in Mu Sijue’s arms.

She didn’t know when it began or who was the first to hug.

Xu Youning only knew that she was leaning in Mu Sijue’s arms. One of his hands was on her waist and gently circled her.

Her breath blew on Mu Sijue’s chest, and his chin was pressed against her head intimately…

At this moment, they looked like a couple.

Xu Youning closed her eyes feeling greatly satisfied and didn’t move a bit.

If it was a dream, she was willing to drown in it and sleep forever.

If it was reality, she was willing to maintain this position until Mu Sijue woke up and pushed her away.

Xu Youning didn’t know how long she could live. She was just sure that the intimate hug between her and Mu Sijue was lessening.

Like a thief who had done something they felt guilty about, Xu Youning carefully leaned against Mu Sijue’s chest with her eyes closed. She didn’t even dare to breathe freely.

“As long as I keep quiet, Mu Sijue won’t wake up so soon. Then I can be presumptuous for another minute, right?”

It turned out that Xu Youning had underestimated Mu Sijue’s biological clock.

At seven o’clock, Mu Sijue moved a bit. Xu Youning had slept in the same bed with him before. So in a flash, she realized—Mu Sijue had woken up.

“I can’t let him find out that I’m awake!”

Xu Youning wanted to pretend to wake up just now. She suddenly looked up and her head happened to collide with Mu Sijue’s chin. Then she heard two rows of teeth chattering together.

She was stunned and looked at Mu Sijue, only to find that his handsome face was covered with fury.

“Mu Sijue, I didn’t mean to…”

Her deer-like eyes were full of horror. While explaining, she almost subconsciously stepped back, but her little actions infuriated Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue put his hand on her shoulder and looked down at her. “You have a lot of strength. It seems that you’ve really recovered.”

Xu Youning looked at Mu Sijue warily. “What do you want?”

“Well, I’ll follow your advice and make good use of you.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Mu Sijue’s lips pressed against hers. He pried open her teeth and went straight in, absorbing her sweetness as she just woke up.

He pressed down on Xu Youning’s shoulder and kept her still with his slender and strong legs, giving her no chance to struggle.

Xu Youning was not the kind of person who would easily give in. She made up her mind and bit Mu Sijue’s lower lip.

Mu Sijue frowned and stopped. Xu Youning could clearly see the blood on his injured lower lip.

Well, somehow, when looking at Mu Sijue this way… he seemed to be even sexier.

After a moment of obsession, Xu Youning realized that this was not the reaction she should have!

While Xu Youning was confused, Mu Sijue lowered his head and smeared the blood on her lips. Then he kissed her lips and pushed the faint smell of blood into her mouth.

“Uh…”

Xu Youning’s eyes were wide open, and countless words popped up in her mind. Every one of them was written in bold—Pervert!!

She struggled with her hands and feet, but it was impossible for her to get rid of Mu Sijue.

Mu Sijue was too familiar with her sensitive spots. He broke them one by one. After a few moves, she gradually lost her sanity, and her strength seemed to have been drained. She could only close her eyes slightly and let Mu Sijue suppress her.

Mu Sijue looked at the “little dear”, who had been tamed, and smiled. He took her little by little, took her into another world, and wandered around…

From resistance to powerlessness, Xu Youning could only scratch Mu Sijue’s back in the end and couldn’t help giving him the response he wanted…

She thought that as long as she didn’t struggle, Mu Sijue would soon let her go.

It turned out that she had underestimated this man’s interest.

When Xu Youning woke up again, it was already afternoon.

The autumn sun fell lazily on the window, through which the shadow of a tree came in. It was beautifully laid on the floor and swayed with the autumn wind.

Xu Youning removed the quilt and took a look at herself. Mu Sijue not only showered her, but also got her dressed.

The most important thing was that he did not handcuff her.

“Has that freak Mu restored his conscience?”

No matter what the answer was, the most important thing at the moment was not it, but that she was hungry.

Xu Youning got up and walked out with her legs, which had no more strength. When she passed by the study, she heard Mu Sijue’s voice.

“I don’t intend to release her.”

Xu Youning was stunned and stopped, and countless words popped up in her mind again.

“Crap!

“What the f**k! Mu Sijue really decided to keep me here!”

If she didn’t go back to Kang Ruicheng, not only would she not be able to avenge her grandmother, but everything she had done, including the attack that Mu Sijue had suffered two months ago, would all be in vain!

By the way, should she run away now?

Before Xu Youning could take action, Mu Sijue had already noticed her. He came out and glanced at her. “When did you come out?”

“Just now,” Xu Youning said frankly, “As for the words you don’t want me to hear, I’ve already heard them.”

Unexpectedly, Mu Sijue didn’t care about that at all. He said leisurely, “That’s great. Then I don’t have to repeat them to you again.”

“Mu Sijue!” Xu Youning was so angry that she wanted to pounce on him and bite him. “Is it interesting? Why do you keep me by your side?”

Mu Sijue lowered his voice and let out a warm breath in Xu Youning’s ear. “Because I found that you are very useful.”

How long would it take for him to get tired of the joke about “using”?

Xu Youning couldn’t help sneering. “When are you going to let me go?”

“I don’t know,” Mu Sijue said calmly, “I don’t know when I’ll lose interest in you.”

Xu Youning gritted her teeth and looked at Mu Sijue with hatred, thinking of hundreds of ways to get away.

Mu Sijue seemed to have seen through Xu Youning’s thoughts and warned her, “Don’t try to run away, or…”

With a stubborn look, Xu Youning asked provokingly, “Or what?”

Mu Sijue sneered and said ambiguously, “You know the consequences.”

His evil look was like a special effect of ecstasy. As soon as he leaned in, Xu Youning’s heart began to beat out of control.

“Damn, the rules of the game aren’t like this. Mu Sijue has violated the rules directly!”

Xu Youning subconsciously stepped back, and Mu Sijue reacted quickly. He reached out his hands and wrapped his arms around her waist. The more she struggled, the tighter Mu Sijue’s arms circled her.

For convenience, Mu Sijue gave Xu Youning a blouse. As she struggled, the buttons of the blouse were pulled open. Mu Sijue lowered his head and saw a scar on Xu Youning’s lower abdomen.

If he remembered correctly, this scar should have been caused by him.

“Your masterpiece.” Xu Youning took the opportunity to get free of Mu Sijue’s grasp and asked coldly, “Are you satisfied?”

“It’s too shallow,” Mu Sijue said. “Not good enough.”

“…”

Xu Youning had nothing to say. She could only curse him repeatedly in her heart, “Pervert!”

She couldn’t stay here and continue to leave her life to fate.

It was not only because of Mu Sijue’s pervertedness, but also because she became more and more easily influenced by him.

She was afraid that if things went on like this, she would become more and more dependent on him and would never be able to leave him.

However, Mu Sijue didn’t love her. His interest in her and his so-called “use” of her was just to get revenge on her for her deception and betrayal in the past.

She didn’t want to be Mu Sijue’s tool.

She wanted to go back, avenge her grandmother, and help Lu Boyan bring down Kang Ruicheng.

As for whether she could come back or not…

It didn’t matter. Anyway, she didn’t even know how many days she had left.
