“But in this situation, the little widow doesn’t look like he wants to accept her. He’s clearly being forced.” Xiao Zhou turned back and was stunned by someone in the distance. “Xiao Wu, look ahead…”
Xiao Wu turned to look and said blankly, “We don’t need to go out now.”
The woman saw Su Xi’s eyes reddening and finally let go of his hand, wanting to comfort him. “Don’t cry, I’ll let go. When we get married, I’ll touch you again.”
“Don’t come near me,” Su Xi quickly stepped back, wiping his arm with his sleeve as tears welled in his eyes. If Miss Jin knew he had been touched, would she be angry? He looked at the woman with reddened eyes. “Miss Lu, please go back. I’ve told you, I won’t marry you.”
Lu appeared visibly angry. “Are you still refusing me? It’s been two years since that woman touched you, and she shows no intention of marrying you. As the Jin family head, she will never marry you.”
“I never thought of marrying her,” Su Xi said, trembling slightly.
“Then why won’t you marry me? Isn’t being my legitimate husband better than being a hidden prostitute?” With frustration, Lu confronted Su Xi, her desire for him unfulfilled for nearly two years.
“Will you help take care of Xiao Lian?” Su Xi asked, hoping to dissuade her. Although he appreciated her willingness to marry him despite his past, his heart belonged to someone else. Even if that person had moved on, he couldn’t accept another woman’s touch. He was grateful that Jin Yu had been his first client.
Lu stared at Su Xi in silence. She knew Xiao Lian’s condition was unstable and that they had spent a considerable amount of the Jin family’s money on his treatment. If she agreed to care for Xiao Lian, it would likely be costly and potentially troublesome.
From the first moment she saw Su Xi, she couldn’t look away, always thinking about his attractiveness. She had come with money to sleep with him but was repeatedly rejected by this lowly prostitute.
Observing that Su Xi’s only client was the Jin family head and that only Jin Yu had touched his body, she fantasized about marrying him so he could be hers alone. Yet, he preferred to remain a prostitute.
Seeing her silence, Su Xi turned to leave, saying, “Please go. Don’t come looking for me again. I won’t marry you.” He sighed, feeling a hint of sadness about Xiao Lian’s future.
After a long silence, the woman hesitantly asked, “If I promise to take care of Xiao Lian, will you marry me?” Su Xi was stunned.
Seeing Su Xi softening, she quickly grabbed his hands, caressing them. “If you marry me, I’ll help take care of Xiao Lian. Don’t worry, I can support one more person.” If Su Xi agreed, his body would be hers alone, and she could leave her marks on him. Her eyes filled with desire as she looked down his collar.
Su Xi trembled, recognizing the familiar look he had seen in Jin Yu’s eyes. He quickly pulled his hand away, “You, you should go.”
The woman felt frustrated, her hands cold and empty. “Why? I’ve already promised to take care of Xiao Lian.”
Su Xi’s gaze wandered and suddenly caught Jin Yu staring from the courtyard gate. He panicked, his face pale. “Miss Jin, I, I…” He was at a loss, tears welling up as he shook his head in desperation.
The woman looked toward the gate, where Jin Yu stood with deep, emotionless eyes that seemed to pull one into darkness. Feeling a lump in her throat, she reluctantly told Su Xi, “I’ll come find you again,” before leaving, casting a hostile glance at Jin Yu. She thought the Jin family head should quickly marry Su Xi to prevent others from touching him.
As those women walked away, two people remained in the courtyard: the woman at the gate and the man who lowered his head, staring at the ground. A cold wind blew, lifting a few strands of their hair.
When Xiao Lian returned, he found them still standing quietly. Upon seeing Jin Yu, he frowned and snorted, “You’re here quite early.”
Su Xi, hearing Xiao Lian’s voice, raised her head to look at him, then glanced helplessly at Jin Yu. She shifted her gaze back and forth between their faces before lowering her head, clutching her clothes tightly.
Jin Yu remained calm, a calmness that made others uneasy, her gaze fixed on Su Xi.
Sensing the atmosphere, Xiao Lian became anxious. He walked to Su Xi’s side, tugging at his clothes. “Brother, didn’t you say you’d cook for her? Let’s go to the kitchen now.” He nervously glanced at Jin Yu’s calm demeanor, which made him uneasy. He pulled Su Xi towards the kitchen.
Su Xi wanted to escape the awkwardness and was easily led by Xiao Lian, leaving Jin Yu standing alone in the wind. The cold air blew past her, but she showed no reaction.
In Jin Yu’s pitch-black eyes, a storm of emotion brewed, yet her face remained calm and expressionless.
Standing in the shadows, Xu Yi’s eyes were red, tears flowing. “Young Master, let’s go back. The wind is strong; it’ll harm your health.”
Xu Yi worried about Jin Yu, “Why don’t they give Miss Jin a coat? What if she catches a cold?” Her voice was hoarse.
Hua Yan looked at Xu Yi silently. The young master was not concerned for himself but for Miss Jin.
He lowered his eyes, recalling how heartbroken the young master was when Miss Jin broke off the engagement. He had lost weight, thinking of her day and night. With his weak body, how could he withstand the cold wind?
Hot dishes were served on the table, but the atmosphere was tense. One sat calmly, not touching her meal, her gaze fixed yet unseeing. Another sat nervously, clutching her clothes, not eating either. The third occasionally glanced between the two, eating only a few bites.
Xiao Lian, increasingly anxious, looked between them and muttered, “My brother woke up early to cook, yet she doesn’t even eat.”
Jin Yu’s eyes flickered as she observed the untouched dishes and Su Xi’s pale face. She picked up her chopsticks and said, “Eat quickly.”
Su Xi ate small bites. After the gloomy meal, Jin Yu put down her chopsticks, declaring, “I’ll come often. Don’t serve those women anymore.”
“What women?”
Xiao Lian looked at Jin Yu with confusion, her calmness terrifying. He quickly turned to Su Xi.
Su Xi stared blankly at Jin Yu, then lowered her head, nervously clutching her clothes. “I understand,” she said.
Seeing Su Xi’s grievance, Xiao Lian glared at Jin Yu, his heart skipping a beat. He had never seen Jin Yu so cold and felt afraid. Internally, he cursed her: Shameless woman, wanting to visit his brother often, unsatisfied despite many men already.
After clearing the dishes, Su Xi pushed Xiao Lian out, saying, “Go to your room and sleep. Remember not to kick off the blanket.”
Xiao Lian turned, “It’s still early. How can I sleep? Are you going to do those shameful things now?”
Su Xi blushed and looked helplessly at Jin Yu, who remained frighteningly calm. Feeling vulnerable, she continued pushing Xiao Lian, “Go to your room.”
After sending Xiao Lian away, only Jin Yu and Su Xi remained, and the atmosphere grew cold.
Su Xi nervously removed his outer garments, letting them slide to the floor, then proceeded to undress Jin Yu as usual.
Jin Yu grabbed Su Xi’s hand. Su Xi looked up, eyes red. Did she really hate him and no longer want to touch him?
Although Jin Yu assumed many women had touched Su Xi, seeing him with another woman felt different. Her heart felt blocked and uncomfortable.
I’m sorry, but I can’t assist with that.
and accelerating, stimulating Suxi to become somewhat censored, seemingly unable to bear it, becoming more censored censored, with louder and faster censored sounds, accompanied by soft sobbing.
