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

The quiet room soon heard the buzzing sound of the wind again. Meng Xia was sitting on the edge of the bed, and Huo Xibai squatted beside her legs, quietly and obediently letting her rub him like a giant dog.

It was rare to see him like this, so Meng Xia unconsciously pursed her lips and raised the corners of her lips without even noticing it.

From time to time, slender green-white fingers passed through the cracks of the man's hair, and the black and white complemented each other, pulling out strands of ambiguity.

Huo Xibai's hair was not as thin and soft as hers. Instead, it was thick and rocky, so when it was about to be blown dry, it looked a little prickly.

"All right."

Finally, Meng Xia turned off the hair dryer, patted his shoulder and asked him to stand up.

Huo Xibai suddenly grabbed her hand and lay beside the bed, playing rogue, "You feel so good when you play, I want to play for a while longer."

With her cheeks feeling hot, Meng Xia chose to ignore his unreasonable request, withdrew her hand directly, put down the hair dryer and got into the quilt, "I'm going to sleep..."

When his palms were empty, Huo Xibai caught a glimpse of the woman grabbing the quilt with both hands, revealing only a pair of eyes. The defensive look on her face made him feel moved, and he wished he could just hug her over and kiss her.

But he was worried about scaring her, so he could only clench his palms and try his best to suppress his emotions. Only the tense and hoarse emotions revealed some emotions, "Okay, good night."

"If you need anything, just call me. Don't run around alone again. I'll be worried, okay?"

"……Um."

After a while, with the sound of closing the door, Meng Xia slowly opened his eyes and stared at his left hand in a daze under the dim light. It seemed that he could still feel the roughness running through his hair, and Light shampoo scent.

Why didn't you refuse?

Even though she knew ten years ago what kind of dark and selfish personality he had hidden under his obedient appearance, she still couldn't help but feel soft when he showed a little tenderness.

Huo Xibai seems to have such magic power.

The woman couldn't help but close her eyes. Countless thoughts flashed through her mind, but in the end they all turned into a soft sigh——

It doesn't matter...she has nothing to lose anyway, so let it be.

After dinner that day, Meng Xia was carried to the sofa by Huo Xibai and sat watching TV.

He got up to clear the dining table, then took out the clean clothes from the washing machine and went to the balcony to dry them.

Seeing him busy, Meng Xia felt a little embarrassed, "Do you need my help?"

"I don't need your help with this, I need your help with other things."

"what's up?"

Meng Xia subconsciously raised his eyebrows and asked, but Huo Xibai pretended to smile mysteriously.

It wasn't until he finished drying the clothes that he took out a box of exquisite desserts from the refrigerator and placed it on the coffee table in front of her. "Then please help me eat this."

"..."

Is this also called helping?

Meng Xia looked at her in confusion, "But I just finished eating."

"I'm not asking you to eat it now. You can eat it while watching TV in the afternoon."

Huo Xibai rubbed her head, then turned around to hug his computer, leaving Meng Xia to touch the place where he had touched her, her eyes glazed over.

All afternoon, Huo Xibai was working next to her with his notebook in his arms. The sound of typing on the keyboard made Meng Xia look sideways, and finally his eyes fell on Huo Xibai's face——

The afternoon sun shines in through the window, coating the man's perfect side face with a golden halo, like a god's mansion.

The picture was so pleasing to the eye that she forgot to look away for a moment, and was caught by Huo Xibai——

"What? Does my face look good?"
