If you're not going to marry me, why are you flirting? If you dare run away, I'll sever yo

Xia Ningqi crossed her arms, speechless, and said, "What kind of reward do you want? Do you want me to touch you?"

"It's not impossible."

"Okay, if you study hard, I'll reward you by letting you touch me."

Qi Nan instantly regained his composure.

He was just joking, but he didn't expect Xia Ningqi to actually agree.

"Okay, from now on I'm going to give it my all."

Qi Nan twisted his arms, looking full of energy.

Xia Ningqi thought to herself, "I'm not happy about this."

As expected, Ye Anran was right; all men are like little yellow men, and Qi Nan, that stinky man, is no exception.

As Qi Nan had just said, he entered what is called "serious" mode in the following time. The key points that should have taken two hours to explain were learned by him in just half an hour today.

This surprised Xia Ningqi somewhat. It seems that this guy isn't really stupid after all; at least when he's studying seriously, he does absorb knowledge very quickly.

"Alright, alright, we've finally finished this chapter. Now it's time to keep your promise, isn't it?"

"You're being somewhat serious, so feel free to touch me."

Xia Ningqi reached out her hand to Qi Nan.

I'm a little confused.

Qi Nan stared at her slender, pale hands and asked疑惑地问道, "Shouldn't it be touching black stockings?"

"I only said I'd let you touch me, when did I ever say I'd let you touch my black stockings?"

Qi Nan's face darkened.

Good grief, I've been tricked like this. Isn't this just a classic word game?

"You liar."

"Touch it or leave it."

Qi Nan was annoyed. "What's so great about your hands?"

"Then don't touch it."

Seeing that she didn't keep her word, Qi Nan said angrily, "Hmph, if you don't want to touch me, then don't. It's not like I can't touch other women."

Xia Ningqi frowned, her tone tinged with a hint of coldness, "What do you mean?"

"Literal meaning."

The temperature inside the room dropped sharply.

Xia Ningqi's fingernails dug into the flesh of her palm. "Have you always been this indecent?"

"You found out, I really am that dirty."

I don't know why I'm being stubborn, but Qi Nan just doesn't want Xia Ningqi to have her way.

"How many women have you slept with, you slut?"

Qi Nan stretched out his palm and began to count with great seriousness.

"One, two, three, four..."

Just then, the girl's voice rang out again, ruthless and devoid of warmth, "One more and I'll cut off one of your fingers."

Qi Nan remained silent.

Once his mind cleared up, he immediately felt remorseful for his actions.

Damn it, I forgot she's the female lead. Getting angry with her is like digging my own grave.

Qi Nan was somewhat at a loss.

Just as I was about to make up some excuses for myself, I suddenly felt a tightness in my wrist.

As far as the eye could see, Xia Ningqi was tightly gripping her own hand.

"What...what are you going to do?"

"You like touching, don't you? I'll let you touch me, but you're not allowed to go out and find other women."

"Xia Ningqi...this joke isn't funny at all..."

Qi Nan's heart raced. He suspected she was trying to scare him, and if he actually touched her, she would cut him with a knife.

"I'm not joking."

Xia Ningqi grabbed Qi Nan's hand and placed it on her thigh.

The smooth and delicate touch made Qi Nan feel a little restless.

"Is it really possible?"

"Don't go too far..."

Reaching inside, Xia Ningqi grasped Qi Nan's hand, neither passively nor actively.

Although the atmosphere was already very ambiguous, Qi Nan regained his senses and withdrew his hand from her leg.

"Fine, that's fine. And what I said earlier was all a lie. I've never touched any other girl's leg except for you."

"Are you kidding me?"

Xia Ningqi shifted her position closer to Qi Nan, "I don't believe it."

"Xia Ningqi, you're standing too close."

Qi Nan turned his body away, and could clearly feel the warm fragrance emanating from her nose on his neck.

Xia Ningqi was surprisingly unreserved this time.

When Qi Nan pulled his hand away just now, she felt a little disappointed and even doubted whether she really had no charm.

"Are you still shy? You just touched my leg."

Qi Nan sighed helplessly, "A man and a woman alone in a room, you shouldn't be so intimate with a boy, otherwise it could easily lead to danger."

Touching a leg is fine, but if things accidentally escalate, then it becomes serious...

Xia Ningqi naturally understood Qi Nan's meaning.

There was a long silence.

The girl's voice lingered in his ears, "I only do this with you..."

So can't you be a little more focused...?

The second half of the sentence stuck in her throat, and Xia Ningqi found it difficult to say it.

My heart felt like it was being electrocuted.

Upon hearing this somewhat ambiguous reply, Qi Nan suddenly had an unrealistic idea.

How could that be...?

Qi Nan felt that his fantasy was too absurd.

How could she possibly like me, the bully? I'd rather believe Qin Shi Huang riding a polar bear than believe that.

"It's getting late, you should go back to sleep. Don't stay up as late as you did yesterday."

The single-core processor started to malfunction, but Qi Nan still chose to save the game.

"Is there anything else you'd like to say besides this?"

"Your legs feel so soft to the touch."

Xia Ningqi's long eyelashes fluttered slightly, her tone tinged with shame and indignation, "You really can't say anything meaningful."

After getting up.

Xia Ningqi left the room and returned to her own room.

She never imagined she would say something so bold.

But whenever she heard Qi Nan's frivolous tone, she couldn't help but feel angry inside...

Could it be that I've really fallen for him?

That sour feeling.

Xia Ningqi had never felt this before, but she could probably guess that this feeling was what is called "jealousy".

I came to the table.

She opened her diary.

"I think I understand what 'liking' means now. 'Liking' probably means wanting to possess someone entirely, wanting to occupy every single place in their heart, not even a tiny bit for anyone else."

...

Qi Nan lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep no matter what he did.

In his mind.

Xia Ningqi's every word and action was played frame by frame like a slideshow.

Impossible, impossible, how could she possibly like me?

Qi Nan felt this was a terrifying thing.

How can the female lead like the villain? Isn't that going against the natural order?

Moreover, she often gives me the cold shoulder and frequently says she hates me. As for today's "ha," it was probably just an accident.

Qi Nan believes that although she let him touch her leg willingly and said some ambiguous things, it doesn't necessarily mean anything.

In fact.

Maybe she's just teasing me...

Qi Nan couldn't figure it out, and he didn't know what choice he should make if it were true, so he could only take it one step at a time.
