Living Only For Myself: Make Those Who Hate Me Regret It Chapter 228: "Xu Su, Don’t Make This Kind of Joke

Her new deskmate was Qian Jia... The arrangent was so considerate that Xu Su couldn’t help but suspect it was Zhou Mochen’s doing.

"That female student who was walking with Xi Zirong last ti, that was your deskmate, wasn’t it?" Zhou Mochen’s hand rested on Xu Su’s waist, pulling her in as he sneered. "You might be willing to play a part in that kind of drama, fighting over another man, but I’m not willing to watch it."

In the past few days, even though Zhou Mochen was in Beijing on business, he had still found the ti to get a general grasp of Xu Su’s social life at school. There was no way he would let her be treated like that.

He stated, as if it were obvious, "I listened to you about not transferring schools. For everything else, you’ll listen to . There’s still almost a year left. I won’t let you suffer from that petty nonsense at school, and I absolutely will not tolerate anyone targeting you."

"..." Xu Su was silent for a long mont before accepting his kind gesture. Having Qian Jia as a deskmate was, of course, much better than having Gu Yunjia.

Seeing that it was still early, Xu Su got ready to go back to her room to do a couple of practice tests, but as soon as she stood up, Zhou Mochen grabbed her by the wrist. "Sit with for a little while."

"No. You have your work to do, and as a student, I have my studies to focus on."

Xu Su’s expression was unyielding. "Zhou Mochen, let make this clear to you right now. I’m fine with living in your house for this year, but before the college entrance exams, don’t you dare try to affect my studies. Always rember, I am a senior in high school."

’If she didn’t set so ground rules beforehand, given his habit of trying to seduce her at every turn, Xu Su worried she wouldn’t be able to resist the temptation. She might just fall into his tender trap during a ti when she was supposed to be studying hard...’

Zhou Mochen remained seated on the sofa, holding her wrist. He looked up at her without a word for a long ti before saying, "We haven’t seen each other in three days. Don’t you want to spend a little more ti with ? Or how about this: I’ll go to your room with you. You can do your practice tests, as long as I can see you."

"...Don’t be so clingy," Xu Su said, exasperated. "I’ll be coming ho every day from now on. Are you really worried you won’t see ?"

Xu Su had seen Zhou Mochen in all sorts of moods, but faced with this clingy version of him, she honestly didn’t know how to react.

’Co to think of it, this was the first ti the two of them were in a real, proper relationship, combining both this life and her past one...’

The dynamic between a couple was very important. Xu Su knew this, and so did Zhou Mochen. He hesitated for a mont, then chose to let go of her hand. "Alright, go on to your room. Rember to set an alarm. I’ll take you to school tomorrow morning."

Xu Su let out a soft sigh of relief, feeling a little happy at the sa ti. ’No matter what... the Zhou Mochen in this life really has changed a lot.’

Her heart ached at the thought of the gloomy, morbidly possessive man from her past life. With a slight frown, she couldn’t help but lean in and kiss the Zhou Mochen in front of her.

The next second, Zhou Mochen grabbed the back of her head and kissed her back fiercely. His voice was hoarse as he warned, "Don’t test my self-control again, Susu. Be careful, or I might not let you leave."

Xu Su: "..."

She grabbed her phone and quickly retreated to her room, not daring to say another word.

The phone Zhou Mochen had gotten for her was the latest model from a certain "fruit" company, basically the ancestor of the first touchscreen phones. After fiddling with it for a mont, Xu Su logged into QQ on her phone. She found that her Master from the ga had already accepted her friend request and added her to two group chats.

One was the main group for the Qingxuan Sect, which had several hundred mbers. A constant stream of new ssages flooded the screen, making it incredibly lively.

The other was likely an elite group for core sect mbers, with fewer than thirty people. Aside from a few mbers who were online and sent clapping emojis to welco her when she first joined, the chat was silent.

Xu Su was pleasantly surprised. ’A complete newbie like actually got into the elite group.’

After posting a brief introduction in the elite group by way of greeting, she muted the notifications for both chats.

She pulled out the review materials Huang Chao had given her and began her daily study routine. She kept at it until her damp hair was completely dry, only then did she climb into bed to sleep.

Sumr days dawned early. By the ti her alarm went off, it was already broad daylight outside.

After washing up and changing into her school uniform, Xu Su ca out to see Zhou Mochen leaning against the counter, wearing only a pair of black trousers. He was holding a glass, about to take a drink. His upper body was bare, and with his back to her, the movent of raising his arm revealed a lean, powerful waist.

Perhaps hearing her door open, Zhou Mochen turned to the side. His well-defined collarbones and half of his firm chest were bathed in the morning light. His trousers were unbelted, and his lean abs flashed into view for an instant. His entire deanor was both relaxed and sexy.

Just as Xu Su was staring, a bit dazed, she heard the CLICK of a nearby door opening.

Gu Yue ca out of her bedroom carrying a large bag. She looked up, seemingly in a hurry, and instantly froze on the spot.

...

The hall fell silent for two seconds. Zhou Mochen pointed to the door behind Gu Yue. "Go back inside."

"...Yes!" Gu Yue nodded repeatedly, turned, and went back into her room, closing the door behind her.

Now that they were the only two left in the hall, Zhou Mochen walked over to Xu Su’s side and reached for her hand.

Xu Su snatched her hand back and walked toward the dining room, her face expressionless.

The housekeeper had already prepared breakfast. She took a sip of soy milk and looked at Zhou Mochen, who had followed close behind her with a slightly unnatural expression. Her voice was cool as she said, "Go put a shirt on."

He could tell at a glance that she was angry. He hesitated for a second before leaving the dining room. When he returned, he was wearing a white polo shirt.

This was the first ti Zhou Mochen had ever encountered such a situation. Never one for explanations, he struggled for a long mont before finally forcing out, "I didn’t do it on purpose. I forgot soone else was in the house."

Xu Su ate her breakfast in silence. Her face was unreadable, but inside, she was seething with anger.

She remained silent all through breakfast, on the way out the door, and even after sitting down in the passenger seat, her face was set in a stony expression.

Zhou Mochen tried to reach for her hand several tis, but she dodged him each ti. Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore. He pulled the car over to the side of the road, his tone heavy. "You’ve been throwing a fit all morning. Are you really this angry, or are you just using this as an excuse to make a scene?"

"Shouldn’t I be angry?" The anger Xu Su had been suppressing all morning finally exploded when she heard him say that. A torrent of fury poured out of her. "Don’t you always say you’re mine? Then am I not allowed to be angry when sothing of mine is seen by soone else?"

The fury was plain on her face; she was clearly incandescent with rage.

Seeing her this furious, Zhou Mochen’s mood, paradoxically, improved imnsely. He leaned in to coax her. "I really did forget Gu Yue was staying with us. I promise I’ll be more careful in the future, alright? What belongs to my Susu absolutely can’t be seen by anyone else."

He tried to hug her as he spoke, but Xu Su couldn’t stand his casual attitude about the matter. She shoved him away and let out a cold, angry laugh. "You’re the one who had Gu Yue transferred here. How could you forget she’s living in our house?"

The very thought of another woman seeing him like that this morning made a naless rage burn white-hot in Xu Su’s heart. It was worse than having a favorite toy snatched away. She was practically grinding her teeth. "Fine. Next ti, I’ll ’forget’ there’s another man in the house and walk out half-naked. Let’s see how you feel then."
