Living Only For Myself: Make Those Who Hate Me Regret It Chapter 339 - 337: You Even Care If I’m Tired
Hearing Xu Su, Nanyang chid in, "Well, try to co to Beijing early! We all really want to et you. If you co sooner, we can go sightseeing. This is the Ancient City, so there are tons of famous historical sites to check out. I heard Sika’s coming too. She’s flying all the way back from the Lighthouse Country just for this etup, and a big part of the reason is that she wants to et you."
"Yeah, that’s right! Little Xikai said it in the group chat last night. She really wants to et you in person. Plus, our etup this ti is during sumr break, and the big boss will be there too."
Liu Yun added, "Even though he’s the Sect Leader, the boss rarely shows up to our offline etups. He’s incredibly busy; you can never get a hold of him."
Everything they said underscored how rare this full-mber gathering was and how much they hoped she would be there.
But Xu Su was still hesitant to promise anything definite. After all, plans can always change.
"I’ll do my best to make it," she said after a mont’s thought. "I need to go visit my grandma for a few days. Once my college entrance exam scores are released, I should be heading to Beijing, assuming nothing unexpected happens."
Feifei said, "The scores co out in just a few days, don’t they? You can totally make it, then! Our etup is in early July."
’I can probably make it,’ Xu Su thought with a hum of agreent. Before she could say anything, Liu Yun chid in, "Unless your score doesn’t et the cutoff for University B, your attendance is pretty much guaranteed."
"Not a chance!" Nanyang said with a laugh. "Our Little Susu is an academic ace—ranked second in her entire top-tier high school. With grades like that, as long as she didn’t bomb the test, getting into University B is a lock."
Judging by Xu Su’s recent mood, it didn’t seem like she’d ssed up, so the handful of University B students in the group had already accepted it as fact: they were getting a new junior.
A junior... from the ga.
As they chattered back and forth, they got everything figured out for her, leaving Xu Su not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
At the sa ti, she was touched that every online friend she’d t had been so wonderful.
Xu Su had seen plenty of drama about other sects on the official forums. Many players would plot and sche for a sliver of power in the virtual world, ostracizing one person and targeting another until they were at each other’s throats.
Nothing like that ever happened in the Qingxuan Sect. Perhaps it was because Sect Leader Si Xuan was not soone to be trifled with, so the sect’s culture remained refreshingly upright.
Si Xuan was aloof and preferred a hands-off approach, rarely even appearing in the ga. Despite this, no one dared to provoke the Qingxuan Sect, and it remained one of the three great sects of the Immortal World.
It was all due to Si Xuan’s formidable reputation. In the ga’s monthly ranked arena, he had once dispatched a challenger with a single sword strike, instantly knocking them down a tier. For over a year after that, no one dared to challenge his server-wide number-one ranking.
In short, he was the boss of all bosses.
Stumbling into the Qingxuan Sect by pure chance had been an incredible stroke of luck for her.
Sika had also left her a ssage on QQ. Due to the ti difference, they rarely got to play together anymore. It was hard for them to even be online at the sa ti just to chat.
The fact that Sika was making a special trip back from the Lighthouse Country just for this etup truly showed how much she valued this group of gaming friends.
’I should be able to make it to this offline etup,’ Xu Su thought.
Zhou Mochen didn’t log off until he got ho at six-thirty.
Shen Chen wasn’t ho, so it was just Xu Su and Zhou Mochen for dinner.
After dinner, Zhou Mochen took Xu Su out to see a movie.
In other words, a date.
They wore masks into the theater and saw a romance film. By the ti they ca out, Xu Su’s lips were swollen from all the kissing.
Mortified, she tugged her mask higher up her face. ’This guy is getting way too bold...’
Back at ho, just as Xu Su was about to slip into the bathroom, Zhou Mochen stopped her. His eyes narrowed as he smiled at her. "Together?"
Xu Su’s eyes widened. ’Isn’t this moving a little too fast?’
"Does it still hurt?" When she remained silent, Zhou Mochen bit his lip, looking wronged. "Can we still not do it today?"
"..." ’I swear he does this on purpose. For the past few days, this pitiful act has been his favorite trick. He knows I’m a total sucker for it!’
"Just once," Xu Su said, forcing herself to look away from him. "But we are not showering together!"
’That’s just too mortifying!’
’Even after years of marriage in her past life, she’d never showered with him!’
Zhou Mochen’s eyes instantly brightened. "Okay," he said, gently pushing her into the bathroom and thoughtfully closing the door behind her.
He looked just like a hungry wolf waiting for its al, his eyes practically glowing...
Xu Su shuddered at her own taphor, goosebumps breaking out on her arms again.
’Her mind was instantly flooded with mories of the night before last. Maybe she’d been too hasty in agreeing just now.’
When she ca out of the shower, Zhou Mochen was already waiting on the bed. Xu Su’s legs felt a little weak, and her heart began to race. She was tempted to just kick him out.
Zhou Mochen seed completely oblivious to how his predatory aura was making Xu Su timid. His eyes followed her every move until, after a mont, he simply stood up to embrace her.
"Don’t!" Xu Su exclaid, taking several steps back. "I’ll dry my hair myself. You wait on the bed."
’You wait on the bed...’
Zhou Mochen raised an eyebrow. He barely managed to suppress his desire, but his eyes only grew darker.
Feeling his scorching gaze on her back, Xu Su started to feel genuinely afraid...
She was scared, yet she couldn’t bring herself to make him leave.
’If she actually made him leave, he’d just say she was torturing him again.’
She dawdled her way to the bed, but before she could even get properly settled, Zhou Mochen yanked her under the covers.
"Don’t!"
Xu Su frantically covered his approaching lips. "No kissing! The marks just finally started to fade."
"Okay," Zhou Mochen readily agreed with a nod.
Seeing her fear, he peppered her hand with soft kisses. "Don’t be afraid, Susu. Don’t be afraid."
"...Turn off the light..."
Xu Su’s eyelashes fluttered. She wrapped her arms around his neck and repeated, "You have to keep your promise."
"Okay!"
Zhou Mochen agreed with a smile, reaching out from under the covers to turn off the light.
......
He was a man of his word. He really did only do it once...
But...
Her voice was completely hoarse.
Zhou Mochen paused, then got up to grab a bottle of water from the nightstand. He opened it and handed it to her.
Xu Su sat up and took the water, gulping down a few mouthfuls. She managed to regain a little bit of her strength.
Still fuming, she glared at him. "Zhou Mochen, let remind you, lasting *too* long is a dical problem, you know!"
Zhou Mochen remained silent, just staring at her. The corners of his mouth twitched, wanting to smile, but he held it back, afraid to make her angrier.
Xu Su huffed, leaning back against the bed and closing her eyes.
Zhou Mochen reached out, wrapping an arm around her shoulders while his other hand gently massaged her lower back. "Exhausted?" he asked, trying to curry favor.
"A little late to be asking if I’m tired!" she snapped. The very thought made her mad.
Xu Su shrugged his hand off. "I’m starting to think you’re actually terrifying. Did you major in face-changing or sothing? It’s like you’re a completely different person!"
"It’s really not my fault, Susu."
Zhou Mochen’s voice was laced with helplessness as he quietly defended himself. "Besides, I listened to you. It was only once."
"..." His words left her speechless. She couldn’t help but grab his hand, glaring at him through gritted teeth.
Her glare had absolutely no bite to it.
The dark mist in his eyes slowly began to gather again, sending a chill down her spine...
