At 3 a.m., the landmines in front of the station

"So that's how it is."

Ling Yao gradually came to understand.

"And you, junior sister, do you have someone you like?"

"some."

"If it were you, what would you like to do for someone you like?"

Miya asked curiously.

"I……"

Suddenly, a hint of hesitation flashed across Ling Yao's face. She turned around and blurted out a somewhat unconventional answer—

"I want him to have sex with me even if he can't remember my name, then dump me, only to call me when he remembers and keep using me. I want this kind of 'stable distance' in our relationship."

Chapter 184 Repentance, Transformation, and Speaking the Truth

The sixth day since the disappearance.

Su Che's location was located and discovered.

A knock came from outside the house; it sounded like a staff member.

"Mr. Su, Mr. Su? Are you inside? There's someone visiting downstairs. If you're inside, please respond."

In the deathly silent room, Su Che didn't even have the strength to move a finger; he only realized that a long time might have passed.

He then turned his back towards the door and said:

“I’m fine, but I don’t have the energy to meet with anyone. Let them go back.”

"Oh, okay, it's good to know you're healthy. I won't bother you any longer, Mr. Su."

The staff member turned and left.

-

……

"Bai Qiao, when do you plan to let me go?"

"Young Master, what are you saying? Even if I opened the door now, given your physical condition, do you think you could easily get dressed and leave here?"

"..."

Su Che stared quietly at the dark ceiling, knowing that what she said was true.

The intense, fiery period lasted for several days. Apart from consuming small amounts of water and the bread and other food she had prepared, she spent the rest of her time either in a deep sleep or indulging in pleasure.

There was absolutely no chance to relax.

The reclamation she was referring to was not reclamation in the "corrosive land," but rather the reclamation of a desert area that no one had ever set foot in before.

And the chosen pioneer was none other than himself.

Why do you like to call me Young Master?

In the darkness, he asked in a hoarse voice.

"Because the young master is the young master, and I regard the young master as my master, that's why I use this title."

Bai Qiao lay on her side beside him, one of her slender arms supporting her beautiful face as she gazed at him up close.

"Ok."

Su Che said dejectedly.

"What, young master, do you not like this title?"

"No, it's because it reminds me of someone from the past. That's all."

A figure from my childhood flashed into my mind, followed by endless painful memories and a negative mindset of self-abandonment.

Bai Qiao noticed his emotions, and couldn't help but free one arm to gently stroke his face, saying:

"It's best to forget about the people and things of the past. Young Master is currently experiencing new people and new things. If you don't focus on the present, you might fall asleep with regrets someday."

"is it?"

"Yes, no matter how perfect she is, I am confident that I can completely crush her in certain aspects, and I will definitely not let the young master have the slightest dissatisfaction."

"..."

To be fair, her recent downfall is enough to prove the charm she possesses.

The thing that people can least deceive themselves about is their instincts.

Like Gu Zhi, liking someone can be divided into visual liking and physical liking.

If I put myself in that shoes, then my feelings for Bai Qiao would be entirely based on physical attraction.

"Feelings can be cultivated slowly, and young master doesn't need to worry about anything. I'm not a troublesome person, so I'd rather showcase my strengths through reverse management. As you can see, you don't dislike me, nor have you pushed me away. So, this time, I've won the battle."

"Yes. You win."

Su Che closed his eyes, having no objection to the answer.

Compared to the more girlfriend-like house cat, the more reserved senior student, the slightly naive Gu Zhi, and the pure and untainted little ones,

What Bai Qiao possesses is indeed an irresistible allure.

"I'm hungry. Shall we grab something to eat together?"

She offered a healthy suggestion.

"it is good."

-

……

The next four days were a self-managed stay.

More than 20 years of repression were released over a total of 10 days and nights.

The tenth afternoon.

Su Che received a note with the address where the team uniforms were stored.

It was in a short-term rental apartment.

The location is near Riverside Street, in an upscale residential community called "Gu Nan".

"If you want it, come and get it in person."

In front of the e-sports hotel, Bai Qiaoqiao smiled and said she didn't intend to deliver the goods directly to his home by mail.

"Okay, but I need to rest for a while."

Su Che knew what kind of medicine she was hiding in her skirt.

Now that things have come to this, if we don't be more direct, we probably won't get what we want.

"The main focus of this expedition was to show the young master the Bunny maid outfit I made myself, and it seems you're quite satisfied. Next time, I'll show you something else."

She dragged her suitcase, waved to him with a smile, and then walked towards the taxi parked on the side.

Su Che didn't drive her home because his legs were weak and he felt exhausted. All he wanted to do was go home, lie down, and clear his mind.

Explaining the recent disappearances to the cats has become a major problem.

However, according to the strategies in "The Great Law of Bad Water", sometimes, obvious time rifts don't need to be filled.

The cats will understand on their own. If they don't understand, then they're not good cats. They need to be guided by other cats so that they can understand to some extent.

"I'm so tired."

He looked up at the blinding blue sky and felt that even on a cloudy day, it was somewhat unsteady on his feet.

Bai Qiao had already left, and he had returned his room card, paying 380 yuan in compensation for the bedding as payment for the mess in the room.

He then walked back to the car.

The drive home was slow because I was subconsciously trying to escape something, which I won't go into detail about.

As soon as I turned on my phone, countless messages flooded in like bombs dropped by a bomber, instantly filling my private message list to 99+, making it dizzying to read.

The kittens' words were very touching.

Especially the line, "Ah Che, don't you want us anymore?", is a truly profound question.

This caused the car to travel even slower on the way home, and there was absolutely no way to respond to the cats' thoughts.

A quick glance at the date revealed that ten days had passed since I left home.

This seems far from the promised 3 days, and falls under the category of force majeure.

There was no point in explaining, so Su Che chose to go back directly.

When I turned the key and pushed open the door, things were different from what I had expected.

The three little ones in the family didn't leave despite losing patience; in fact, when their gazes met mine, all that remained in their eyes was worry and concern.

It was a gaze that was fortunate to still be seen, without any resentment or displeasure.

Surprisingly, there was no questioning session.

As the leading lady, An Qing's first words to everyone were: "I've taken good care of them."

This warmed Su Che's heart, and he felt an indescribable sense of gratitude.

Yuan Xiao stayed for 10 days without returning home at all.

She was actually quite concerned about where someone was, but she only made a few phone calls to her sister to discuss and speculate on how things would unfold. She didn't cause any trouble, nor did she show any excessive emotional needs when she entered the room.

Miya felt relieved after receiving a reply from her teacher.

Confirming safety is more important than anything else.

Although the answer is "he is enjoying himself," that's not a good thing.
