[Love and Producer] Passive strategy

[Xu Mo's favorability +38!Xu Mo's affection for you has risen to LEVEL-10!Achievement - The Genius Professor's Little Girlfriend!Congratulations on winning the title of "Equally Matched Men and Women"! 】

The sudden sound of the system startled the unprepared Li Youxue, she lost control when she exerted force on her hand, and the gleaming blade slipped, cutting easily on the pulp of the fair-skinned index finger of her left hand. Open a wound.

Li Youxue stared blankly at the wound that first cracked and then slowly oozes blood, and it took a few seconds to gradually feel the pain - the cut was not shallow because the force of the knife was out of control.

[... Her Lady Queen? ] The system sensed her astonishment, and called out in a little fright. [Did I scare you?This injury...]

The blood snaked down the fingers, soaking the pale yellow flesh of the apple in an instant after removing the skin.

Li Youxue frowned, resisting the pain, put the knife back on the table, stood up holding the apple, and walked towards the bathroom.

After simply rinsing the bloody part of the apple under the faucet, Li Youxue pursed her lips, and hesitantly stretched out the bleeding wound towards the water.

"Does it hurt?" A warm palm suddenly grabbed her left hand and pulled it towards her.

Li Youxue gave him a surprised look, then shook her head: "It doesn't hurt."

Xu Mo sighed slightly, lowered his eyelids, and his expression was a little heavy: "Why didn't you tell me?" He looked carefully at the wound that was still bleeding, as if smiling wryly: "You said it didn't hurt...it must have hurt, right? ,for you."

He shook his head, quickly looked aside, took down a bottle of red medicine from a shelf not far away, used tweezers to hold a cotton ball to dip the brown-red liquid in the bottle, and carefully wiped off the blood from her fingertips. I still don't forget to tell me softly: "If you feel pain, just tell me."

"Is it iodophor? It doesn't matter, it won't hurt very much." Li Youxue also knew a little about all kinds of disinfectants, and shook her head nonchalantly. apples. "The apple peel is broken, it seems that it can only be peeled again."

Xu Mo's brows were furrowed - it looked like he was the one who got hurt.Hearing what she said, he sighed softly: "You, why are you still thinking about that apple?"

"Because it was the first one I cut, it's a pity." Li Youxue replied frankly.

Xu Mo gave her a complicated look, didn't answer, but concentrated on disinfecting her briefly, then took out a small bottle, sprinkled the light yellow powder on her wound, and then wrapped it with a band-aid.

He was so prepared, and he kept his every move lightly for fear that she would feel pain, but Li Youxue felt faintly uncomfortable.

——It's not like she hasn't experienced such an accidental injury.Therefore, she is not so afraid of pain.Moreover, in order to prevent the silly father from worrying, she usually handles it quietly by herself and then hides it. She has never had the experience of watching others bandage her with concern like this.

"It's my fault." After doing all this, he carefully wiped off the dried blood between her fingers with a cotton swab, Xu Mo held her hand and said in a low voice. "Obviously knowing that you don't know how to peel apples, I still agree with you to do it."

"What are you talking about? If you don't cut it yourself, how can you learn it?" Li Youxue didn't think it was a big deal, so she explained it funny. "Besides, this apple is enshrined in the prayer that the skin will heal if you keep peeling it. I can't let you peel it yourself, right? Then I can only..."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly noticed Xu Mo's expression.

Xu Mo's deep purple eyes were staring at her non-stop, their inner depths were so deep and dull, as if they wanted to swallow her whole.

Her heart seemed to be seized by some invisible emotion. Li Youxue paused for a moment, and turned her eyes away from him as if nothing had happened. Instead, she focused on the apple by the sink, and as soon as she grabbed it, she planned to throw it into her feet. side trash can.

Xu Mo quickly grabbed her wrist, as if deliberately controlling his strength so as not to hurt her, and asked in a low voice, "Why did you throw it away?"

"It's already stained with blood. Even though I washed it with water, it's still pretty dirty when I think about it." Li Youxue calmed down, watching the apple in her hand without looking up. "Besides, it seems very unlucky to have your skin broken in the middle. If it causes your illness not to recover, I can't bear the responsibility."

"So superstitious, how do you do a science show?" Xu Mo said, as if laughing lowly.Then, he gently took the wet half-peeled apple in her hand, put it near his mouth, and took a bite without hesitation.

"It's not superstitious, it's unhygienic." Li Youxue couldn't help but look up at him, just in time to see him chewing slowly with a smile on his face, she couldn't help but hesitate slightly.

——It's really unhygienic, that bloody apple!She couldn't help roaring inwardly.

The system that witnessed the whole process: [...Your reaction is really, never the same as that of ordinary girls. 】

Sensing her gaze, Xu Mo turned his face slightly towards her, smiled and raised the apple: "It's delicious, I will finish it well."

[Xu Mo's favorability +30! 】The system once again refreshed its sense of existence.

Li Youxue weighed it quickly, and confessed to him: "There is soup in the pressure cooker, and it will remind you when it is finished. After it automatically exhausts the gas, you can drink it."

Xu Mo was startled, smiled and asked her, "Did you cook it specially for me?"

"Yes." Li Youxue nodded frankly. "Don't you have a little cough? I made the lung moistening soup according to the method my father taught me, because I have made it before, and the taste should be guaranteed. If you think the taste is too bland or too salty, remember to tell me, and I will improve it."

"Okay." Xu Mo let out a slight sigh from his throat, he slowly raised his hand, and rubbed the girl's black-haired head. "I'll taste it with my heart."

Li Youxue blinked, seeing that his face was still pale - now it really is not an illusion - guessing that he was probably not pretending to be sick, so she said goodbye wisely: "I'm going first, you should rest well .”

"Okay." Xu Mo didn't say anything to keep her, and sent her out with a smile. He stood at the door and saw her enter. He just waved goodbye to her and closed the anti-theft door.

……

The moment the room returned to silence, Xu Mo finally couldn't hold on anymore. After barely standing still with his back against the door, he raised his hand and gently touched his forehead to make sure—his head was covered in cold sweat.

The intense pain was clamoring to rush out of the chest, but the electric pressure cooker not far away made a sharp sound at this time.Xu Mo stood on the spot leaning against the door, and glanced expressionlessly at the sliding door of the kitchen.

He seemed to see the black-haired girl quietly busy in the kitchen with her back to the door, putting the ingredients into the pot one by one.

...Also, the girl clearly cut her finger, but endured it without making a sound, and walked to the bathroom alone to wash the wound.

The deep purple eyes became darker and darker. Xu Mo held his chest and walked unsteadily towards the dining room. He easily found the fruit knife she had held in her hand on the table - the silver-white blade There was still a little bit of dark red marks on it.

He leaned over in a daze, and reached out to touch the blood stain - because it had dried up, his tentacles were cold.

"The last chance is for you to give up." He said lightly, staring at the red mark, a pale light flashed in his eyes. "...I will never let you go again."

[Xu Mo's favorability +25! 】

When the system sounded the reminder, Li Youxue was sitting by the window flipping through a book.Because of the New Year's Eve party that Love and Satellite TV will hold next, she is still considering the production details of the event.

Awakened by the sound, she turned her head hesitantly, glanced at the tightly closed door, and subconsciously touched the right eyelid that suddenly started to twitch.

[Xu Mo's favorability rose much faster than usual today. 】The enthusiasm of the system was high, and he took the initiative to talk to her. [It seems that your decision to visit the doctor this time is very wise. 】

Li Youxue ignored it - she didn't pay attention to what the system said at all. In fact, the screen of her mobile phone suddenly lit up on the cabinet beside her.

[Xiao Yueyue: Boss!I heard that next Tuesday is Professor Xu Mo's birthday, have you prepared the presents yet?Need my reference? ]

Li Youxue looked at it expressionlessly, then casually raised her finger and tapped the screen to reply: [Need. ]

……

After get off work the next afternoon.

"Does the boss know about Professor Xu's hobbies?" Yue Yue was in a state of excitement and anticipation like never before as she walked through the commercial street with Li Youxue on her arm. "If you want me to say, of course it is to choose the gift that Professor Xu has wanted for a long time, and then invite him to a romantic theme park or coffee shop. A gift of a scented card!"

"...You should give me a bright and shy smile." Li Youxue held her forehead speechlessly.

Yue Yue smirked: "Hey, those are not important, the key is - what is Professor Xu's long-awaited gift?"

That's a problem.Li Youxue thought seriously for a while, tapping her lower lip with her fingertips, and speculated with a serious expression: "If Xu Mo has been in love for a long time, I think..."

Yue Yue looked over with curious eyes.

"It's me." Li Youxue said a little proudly and arrogantly.

Yue Yue: "..."

【...Although it seems reasonable, are you really serious? ] The system finally couldn't bear to ask.

"Of course it's a joke." Li Youxue replied with a serious face. "As for what Xu Mo likes..." She fell into serious thinking again.

... Yueyue twitched the corners of her mouth, no matter how serious her expression was this time, she didn't want to listen carefully.

The author has something to say:

I thought about the scene where Xu Mo is like the male lead in a traditional romance drama - holding the cut finger of the female lead in his mouth - and I thought it was a bit scary, so I canceled it.

... It's not finger-licking plain chicken. Drinking the blood from your fingers is disgusting and unhygienic!Although I am obsessed with the PSP version of Devil Lovers recently, Xu Mo is not like a vampire at all with all due respect.
