She ran away from him and was not to be offended by her sickly brother.

Meng Xia subconsciously raised her head, but she happened to meet Huo Xibai's lowered eyes. His gaze fell on her red lips that had just been touched up -

The surroundings instantly became quiet, and she could even hear her own heartbeat in the quiet and narrow passage.

But Huo Xibai just stared at her, his eyes burning and a bit aggressive, but he didn't make any move, as if he was waiting for her to take the initiative.

initiative……

Meng Xia clenched her palms tightly, her nails digging into her palms slightly, stimulating her nerves, but she still refused to move.

Ever since she was a child, she has never been able to take the initiative in a relationship, let alone this kind of thing...

Finally, Huo Xibai squeezed her hand and sighed, "Since you can't think of it, let's owe it to you first."

Is it still possible to owe... something like this?

How to pay it back in the future?

Before Meng Xia could figure it out, the man was already holding her hand, "Let's go home."

On the way home, Meng Xia kept thinking about how to repay the problem. Until Huo Xibai put her on the bed and was about to turn around and leave, she suddenly subconsciously raised her hand and grabbed the corner of his clothes——

"That...I'm a little scared..."

The man paused and turned to stare at her, "Do you know what it means when a woman pulls a man and says something like this in the middle of the night?"

"..."

Meng Xia couldn't help biting her lower lip. Of course she knew it. Even if she didn't know it before, she already knew it when Huo Xibai said the same thing last time.

"Aren't we... already confirmed lovers?"

As soon as his eyes darkened, Huo Xibai felt his mouth go dry for a while, but he still suppressed his voice, "So...is it what I thought?"

With her cheeks heating up, Meng Xia finally realized that this man was deliberately refusing to let her go, as if he was determined to force her to say those words before he would give up.

But she really couldn't say anything, so she pulled up the quilt angrily, "It's nothing, I'm sleepy, let's go to bed first!"

Oh, you've gone too far.

Huo Xibai stared at the group huddled under the quilt, feeling helpless and amused, "What? You're not afraid now?"

"..."

Meng Xia stopped talking and pretended to be asleep. Huo Xibai ignored him several times.

"Really asleep?"

"..."

After a while, she heard the sound of the door closing. She immediately pulled down the quilt and saw that Huo Xibai had indeed gone out and left a night light for her.

While she was secretly relieved, she couldn't help but feel entangled. Although she had indeed made an excuse just now, her fear was real.

After all, she just came out of a place like a haunted house today. Although she kept her eyes closed almost the whole time, she opened them a few times out of curiosity, so now when she closes her eyes, the scene at that time is all in her mind.

Thinking of this, Meng Xia felt a chill down her back, and all the horror stories she had heard and the horror movies she had watched since she was a child were filling her head uncontrollably.

She was so frightened that she quickly wrapped herself in the quilt, not daring to show any of her hands or feet, and later she even retracted her head.

But the more I wanted to sleep, the more I couldn't fall asleep. I tossed and turned for an unknown amount of time, but suddenly I heard a "click" and the door seemed to open——

Her heart tightened, and Meng Xia subconsciously held her breath. Seeing the other party getting closer and closer, she couldn't help but whisper, "Huo Xibai?"

As soon as she finished speaking, someone hugged her whole body with the quilt. Before she could scream, she heard a familiar male voice——

"You said you're not afraid? Huh? You're almost wrapping yourself up into a rice dumpling, and you're not afraid of suffocating yourself?"

Huo Xibai opened the quilt and revealed his red face——

The panic faded away, replaced by shame and anger, and Meng Xia stared at him angrily.

But he didn't know how seductive she looked in Huo Xibai's eyes with her messy hair and flushed face -

Almost instantly, he straightened his body, his eyes fell on the red lips he had longed for, and he couldn't help lowering his head to kiss -
