“Yes, I drove here. I’ll take you.” Mu Chengxi said, reaching for Wen Xin’s hand, but she pulled away.

“I’m dirty. Find a place for me to shower and change. My bag is covered in blood too. Have someone bring me a new one,” Wen Xin said, following Mu Chengxi towards his car.

Many classmates watched through the car window, especially those from Nuclear Physics Class 12. They all rushed to the window to see what was happening.

“Wow, this guy is amazing! He and our Wen Xin look perfect together!” Zhou Xiaoxiao exclaimed excitedly, watching Wen Xin and Mu Chengxi leave.

“Of course, this guy is Wen Xin’s boyfriend. Those rumors about her being kept are total nonsense. I saw him with Wen Xin during the independent recruitment,” Diwu Qixian added.

“Seriously, with a guy who’s handsome, rich, and powerful, how could anyone else catch Wen Xin’s eye? Besides, Wen Xin doesn’t lack money either!”

Diwu Qixian cleverly debunked the rumors about Wen Xin being kept, looking quite proud. She finally had a chance to defend her idol.

“Diwu Qixian, how do you know so much? Are you a secret fan of Wen Xin?” someone joked as they returned to their seats, no longer able to see Wen Xin.

“Of course not; I’m her little fan girl. I originally wanted to study biology, but after seeing Wen Xin, I switched to physics,” Diwu Qixian replied proudly. Though she loved biological research, she didn’t regret studying physics, planning to choose biology as a second major in her second year.

Everyone on the bus chatted casually except for Wei Jiu, who sat in silence, feeling heartbroken. He admitted he had fallen for Wen Xin at first sight, but why had she taken a photo of him? Was there some misunderstanding?

Mu Chengxi had Mu Bei drive towards a mountain villa.

When Wen Xin saw the villa, she was slightly surprised that there was actually such a paradise in the capital. She turned to Mu Chengxi, “Is this also yours?”

“Yes, it’s mine. Let’s go in,” Mu Chengxi replied. He noticed how many times Wen Xin had wiped her hands, knowing she was uncomfortable, so he didn’t waste time explaining, wanting her to shower first.

The housekeeper was surprised by Mu Chengxi’s sudden appearance and quickly came out of the villa to greet him. “Master Xi, why didn’t you inform us you were coming?”

“I decided to come at the last minute. Please prepare some alcohol and send it upstairs,” Mu Chengxi instructed, guiding Wen Xin inside.

The housekeeper noticed the blood on Wen Xin and was concerned. This was the first time Master Xi had brought someone home. He quickly went to fetch the first aid kit and a bottle of high-proof liquor, then headed upstairs.

He knocked gently three times at the door to Mu Chengxi’s bedroom before the door opened. He handed the first aid kit and the bottle to Mu Chengxi.

“Master Xi, the first aid kit contains alcohol swabs. We don’t have any liquid alcohol left. Will the high-proof liquor do?”

“The alcohol swabs are fine,” Wen Xin called from inside the room as she undressed, hearing the housekeeper’s words.

“Alright, I’ll bring it right over,” Mu Chengxi said, nodding to the housekeeper before taking the kit and closing the door with his foot.

Wen Xin, naked, took the alcohol swabs from Mu Chengxi and wiped her hands thoroughly before heading to the bathroom for a shower.

About half an hour later, Wen Xin emerged from the bathroom. Mu Chengxi was sitting on the sofa, looking at something on his phone. A black bag lay beside him, which Wen Xin guessed was a new bag he had prepared for her.

She sat down next to Mu Chengxi, picked up the bag, and took out a pill, swallowing it.

Seeing this, Mu Chengxi handed her a cup of water. “What are you taking?”

“Everyone’s blood might have some health issues. The blood from that injured person splashed on me. Even if he’s healthy, I find it disgusting. This is the best way to relieve the psychological burden,” Wen Xin explained, finishing the water and leaning wearily on Mu Chengxi’s shoulder.

Mu Chengxi, aware of Wen Xin’s cleanliness habits, wrapped his arm around her and gently nuzzled her head. “Stay here for the night. I’ll take you back tomorrow. I’ve already asked the housekeeper to prepare dinner.”

Hugging Mu Chengxi’s waist, Wen Xin thought for a moment and agreed. “Alright, we’ll go back tomorrow. I’m a bit tired from the ride. I’ll lie down for a while.”

As she tried to stand, Mu Chengxi scooped her up. “I’ll join you,” he said with a mischievous smile, and they fell onto the bed together.

When Wen Xin woke up again, it was late at night. Mu Chengxi was lying beside her, his arm tightly wrapped around her.

Wen Xin moved slightly and gasped, feeling a sharp pain. This kind of exercise was too exhausting, she thought.

Sensing Wen Xin’s movement, Mu Chengxi slowly opened his eyes and nuzzled her shoulder. “Are you hungry? Do you want to get up and eat?”

“I want to shower first,” Wen Xin said, her voice hoarse. She felt sticky and uncomfortable.

“Alright, I’ll carry you,” Mu Chengxi replied, lifting her and taking her to the bathroom.

After they had freshened up and come downstairs, the living room was empty, lit only by a wall lamp. Mu Chengxi turned on the main lights and led Wen Xin to the dining room, seating her at the table.

He went to the kitchen, checked the ingredients prepared by the housekeeper, and brought out the barbecue equipment.

“The housekeeper prepared barbeque. It’s pretty good. You should like it,” Mu Chengxi said.
