Qin Shu rubbed her arms with both hands, a look of disdain on her face. âDonât call me Baby. Iâm getting goosebumps.â
The man said, âYour nickname is Xiao Bao. Whatâs wrong with me calling you Baby?â
Qin Shu was stunned and looked at the man in disbelief. âHow did you know my nickname is Xiao Bao?â
âOf course you said it yourself. Otherwise, how would I know your nickname?â The man picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.
Qin Shu raised her eyebrows. âWhy didnât I know that I knew such a big shot like you?â
The man asked, âDo you want to clinch me tightly?â
Qin Shu was speechless.
The man said, âBaby, try these pastries. They melt in your mouth and are sweet but not greasy.â
Qin Shu was speechless again, she glanced at the pastries and licked her lips. âYou havenât told me your name yet.â
âYouâll find out in the future.â The manâs fair and slender fingers reached toward the white porcelain plate, picked up a piece of pastry, and took a small bite.
After just one bite, he stopped eating, he took out a piece of tissue and placed the remaining pastry on top.
Qin Shu glanced at the piece of tissue paper, the pastry with a missing corner, she snorted in her heart, the pastry may not taste that delicious and he could not eat anymore.
After the man wiped the corner of his mouth, he asked her, âBaby, can you accompany me to cruise the Star Lagoon tomorrow?â
Qin Shu rejected him without thinking. âNo.â
The man was not discouraged after being rejected. âIf you accompany me to cruise the Star Lagoon, I will owe you a favor. In the future, no matter what no matter the conditions, I will agree to them unconditionally.â
This offer was very tempting.
But what she could not understand was why he would agree to these conditions if she accompanied him to the lake?
Was he stupid?
Just like previously, when Gu Yan was captured by him, he was to treat his illness and helped him detoxify his poison.
But he said that as long as she stayed in the villa with him for three days, he would let Gu Yan leave.
Was he stupid, or should she say that he really did not bother about life and death?
Qin Shu rejected this attractive offer.
âAlthough itâs rare to get a favor from a big shot, I wonât accompany you on a Lagoon Tour.â
The man said, âYou donât have to reject me in a hurry, please think about my identity, then think about my connections, I have a lot of connections.â
âEven if itâs not good, you can still think about it. I can help you with something, no matter what it is, I would agree to it.â
The man spoke at a moderate pace.
Qin Shu stared at the man for a long time and felt that he was just a little boring, she turned to look at the scenery outside and ignored him.
The man waited for a while but did not hear her reply, he said helplessly, âYou canât be so heartless.â
The manâs tone sounded like he had suffered a great grievance.
When Qin Shu heard this, she was both angry and amused. âHow am I heartless? You are not related to me, I do not have the obligation to accompany you on a lagoon tour.â
The man pursed his lips.
Qin Shu glanced at the man, his face had always been pale and without any color. Seeing him remain silent gave her the illusion that she was bullying him.
There was silence for a while
The man stood up and walked outside.
As he walked, he bumped into the carved door frame, when he bumped into it, the sound was quite loud, and there was a âBangâ sound.
The man did not expect to bump into the door frame, he fell to the ground and made another âBangâ sound.
Qin Shu was stunned for a moment. She did not expect him, who was walking on flat ground, to make such a low-level mistake.
She stood up and ran over, grabbed his arm. âWhy did you bump into the door? Werenât you quite smooth in the past? Iâve never seen you fall in that big villa.â
âIâm not familiar with this place.â The man frowned, he covered his head with one hand and used the momentum to stand up from the ground. When his hand touched the girlâs wrist, his body froze for a moment.
Only then did Qin Shu remember that he couldnât see, previously, he relied on his familiarity with the terrain in his villa and could move freely.
After the man stood up, she let go of him.
Just as she let go, the manâs body swayed. Seeing that he was about to fall again, she hurriedly stretched out her arm to support him.
âYouâd better not go out, get inside, and sit for a while.â
Qin Shu did not bother if he was willing to go in or not, she pulled him in and pressed him onto the round stool.
âIf you are not familiar with the environment, youâd better rest well.â
When Qin Shu turned, she saw that he had been holding his head. She stopped and asked him, âDid you hit your head?â
The man shook his head and continue to put his hand on his forehead.
Qin Shu frowned. âTake your hand away, let me see.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The man sat still.
Qin Shu stared at him for a while, when she saw him like this, she felt inexplicably angry. She reached out and grabbed his wrist, took it away with force, and saw that his fair and flawless forehead was now red and bruised.
âItâs a little bruised, I have a band-aid with me, Iâll put it on for you.â
As Qin Shu spoke, she took out a band-aid from her pocket, tore open the packaging, and put it on him.
After putting it on, she looked at the injured area, and it seemed to be swollen.
The man raised his hand to touch the area where the band-aid was on and said, âI want to eat Osmanthus Cake.â
Qin Shu tilted her head and looked at the three plates on the round table, and one of them was Osmanthus Cake. She looked at the man and felt that he was like a child now.
She looked at the round table again, reached into the plate, picked up a piece of Osmanthus Cake, and handed it to him. âHere, the Osmanthus Cake you want.â
The manâs slender fingers took the Osmanthus Cake from the girlâs hand, as guided by its fragrance, he took a bite, eating it slowly.
Seeing that the man was eating, she felt a little hungry. She took a glance at the Osmanthus Cake on the plate, reached it, picked up a piece, and put it into her mouth to take a bite.
Just as he said, it melted in the mouth, sweet but not greasy.
She took the Osmanthus Cake and sat back on the round stool.
Hearing the slight chewing sound, the man revealed an imperceptible smile.
A piece of Osmanthus Cake was finished in a short while.
The man poured himself a cup of tea in satisfaction and poured her a cup as well.
Qin Shu left the attic after food and drinks.
But before she left, the man brought up the matter again.
âIâll wait for you by the Star Lagoon tomorrow. As long as you come, Iâll agree to any condition.â
On her way back, Qin Shu carried Boss and walked out of the Scenic Garden, she saw Ye Luo waiting at the door and the Ye brothers not far away.
After getting into the car, Qin Shu leaned on the back of the chair and felt a little drowsy, she fell asleep before she reached the hotel.
She didnât know if it was due to her meeting that man today, even her dreams were related to him.
In her dreams
Her body suddenly shrunk a lot, the bottom of her pants rolled up to her knees, and her feet were standing in the stream. She looked at the man in front of her whose eyes were covered with gauze, it should be said that he was a teenager.
As his height had also shrunk a little, he was even slimmer.
The teenager sat on the stone, as his eyes couldnât see, he didnât dare to leave easily. âBaby, where are you?â
She shouted at the youth, âSit there and donât move, I saw a fish. if I catch it, Iâll roast it for you to eat.â
The youth was a little surprised. âBaby can roast fish?â
âI learned it from Ling Han. He is good at roasting fish.â
