We moved to Golden Courtyard

"I have a feeling you're thinking something really annoying." Fu Hua frowned and clenched his fist.

"Huh? Really? It's an illusion, an illusion, it must be an illusion."

"call……"

Sitting down next to Xu Qi, Fu Hua seemed hesitant to speak, which prompted Xu Qi to ask curiously, "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing. I just feel... Xu Qi and Ying seem to be getting a little too close."

"is it?"

"Yes, Xu Qi, you have a girlfriend, so please don't make Mei sad."

……

Xu Qi smiled and reached out to rub Fu Hua's head.

"I understand, don't worry, I would never let Mei be sad... Why did you suddenly bring this up with me?"

"I'm just worried that Xu Qi will make a mistake."

But I've already made mistakes...and big mistakes at that. Of course, Xu Qi is much more accepting of it now. What else could he do if he didn't?

Having already done it, how can you not take responsibility? Then you might really get stabbed to death by Sakura.

"But it doesn't seem to matter."

"what?"

Fu Hua looked up at the cloudless blue sky and murmured, "After all, you're my Xu Qi brother... Even if you make a mistake, I can only accept it, right?"

Xu Qi was stunned. What's going on...? I'm so moved I almost cried, Fu Hua...

He suddenly reached out and hooked his arm around Fu Hua's neck, pulling her into his embrace while she was still in a daze. He ruffled her hair and said, "Waaah! I'm so touched! Fu Hua! You truly are my sister!"

"No!...Brother!...Brother Xu Qi...Quickly...Quickly let me go."

When Xu Qi released Fu Hua, he found that the girl's face was flushed and she was panting heavily, as if she hadn't been that tired even when she was boxing.

"Phew... Brother Xu Qi, you should really rein in your playful nature."

"No, I'm an only child, and I've always longed for a younger brother or sister to play with."

"and then?"

"Mei, who originally intended to be my younger sister, has been thinking about winning me over all the time. Ah... she has indeed succeeded, and now it's your turn." Xu Qi reached out and ruffled Fu Hua's hair.

“You said that even if I made a mistake, I’m still your Xu Qi brother, and I’m the same way… Fu Hua, no matter what you become, you will always be my sister.”

"……Um."

Unaware of the fleeting sadness in Fu Hua's eyes, Xu Qi stood up, patted his bottom, and said, "Let's go! Let's see what delicious food Master Qian made for us this morning."

"I think Master Qian probably hasn't gotten up yet. It seems like he plays games with Kosmo every day and is almost addicted to it."

······

Back at the villa, not only was Master Qian not up, but no one else was up either! Oh, Kevin and Su were up, lying in chairs reading the newspaper.

Sakura usually gets up quite early, but that's impossible today.

Mei has a habit of staying up late, something Xu Qi knows all too well, and he's even a bit grumpy when he wakes up.

Ellie does a live stream every night, so she can't possibly go to bed early. So these two are definitely still sleeping right now... still sleeping?

Xu Qi's eyes darted around.

"Fu Hua, I'm going to check on Mei and the others. Why don't you go take a shower first?"

"okay."

Xu Qi calmly walked into Mei and the others' room—sure enough, the two girls were still fast asleep in bed...

Mei, in particular, kicked off her blanket; what a sleeping posture...so cute!

He stepped forward and covered Mei with the blanket. Looking at the little girl's peaceful sleeping face, Xu Qi felt a sense of tranquility for no reason.

She seems to have this kind of magic innately, perhaps only applicable to Xu Qi.

Smiling, he gently pinched Mei's cheek. Just as he was about to get up to check on Airi, he noticed his girlfriend making a soft whimpering sound, as if she had just woken up.

Xu Qi was taken aback. He saw Mei first scratch her cheek, then move her mouth a little, and then... slowly open her eyes.

Their eyes met, and when Mei saw Xu Qi lying on the headboard, she was wide awake.

She was about to cry out, but then she remembered that Ellie was still lying next to her, so she swallowed it back.

A blush crept onto her cheeks, and Mei glared at Xu Qi, saying softly, "What are you doing here?"

"Look at you!"

"Go away, go away. Ellie streamed until midnight last night. Let her get some more sleep."

"I know."

Did you know I was still here?

"But I want to talk to you for a while."

Mei's breath hitched—she was clearly a clueless girl who couldn't say any sweet words, but that's just how it was... It was often this most genuine expression that made Mei feel a sweet warmth in her heart.

She blushed and secretly glanced to her side.

Xu Qi immediately understood this little gesture and, before Mei could react, quickly slipped into Mei's bed.

"You!...What are you doing up here?"

92. What happened to the scratches on his back?

Mei was instantly dumbfounded. How could you do this? Isn't this just being a scoundrel?

But she really had no way to deal with her boyfriend.

The bed wasn't particularly big to begin with, and with three people sleeping on it, if Mei didn't want to disturb Airi, she had to sit very close to Xu Qi.

Although... she doesn't reject it.

"Weren't you supposed to accompany Theresa to the police station today?"

"She's still sleeping; she probably won't get up until 10 a.m.

So sleepy? This isn't a child at all.

It was only then that Mei noticed that her boyfriend had come up without any clothes on, wearing only his underwear. This discovery made Mei even more dumbfounded.

"Did you just finish practicing with Fu Huachen?"

Xu Qi kissed Mei on the cheek.

"That's right, this is a reward."

Mei lightly punched Xu Qi in the chest, rolled her eyes, as if to say—who wants your reward anyway…

Because they were so close, Mei felt as if she were being enveloped by Xu Qi. In addition, Xu Qi himself had a large frame, and since they were both lying on their sides on the bed, it was even more like they were curled up in each other's arms.

Mei sniffed lightly and asked suspiciously, "Did you take a shower this morning?"

"what?"

"I showered before my morning exercise, and my body smelled of both sweat and shower gel."

What kind of nose is that...?

"Hmm? Why does it have such a strange smell?"

Xu Qi's expression changed subconsciously, and he quickly laughed it off, saying, "Really? You must be imagining things."

"Don't joke around, I have a very keen sense of smell, otherwise how would I cook?"

"It smells like Fu Hua. I wrestled with her for a while during my morning exercise."

Mei nodded thoughtfully, but then her face hardened and she said seriously, "You wrestled with Fu Hua?"

"Forehead……"

"She's a girl, after all. You should be more careful."

"well……"

After a brief mention, Mei stopped there. She was always so considerate, never making Xu Qi feel embarrassed. She was the best girl, Xu Qi was certain of that.

She reached out and smoothed Xu Qi's slightly disheveled hair, her smooth arm protruding outside the blanket and coming into Xu Qi's view.

Going a little lower, you can even see Mei's armpits... It feels so dry...

"Didn't you say you wanted to chat with me? Why did you stop?"

Xu Qi shifted forward slightly, then reached out and wrapped his arm around Mei's waist, pulling the girl closer. It was strange; she'd been almost completely drained by Sakura last night, but...

Now, the moment Xu Qi sees Mei and their bodies touch, he gets aroused again. Sure enough, Mei is Xu Qi's best aphrodisiac.

"Seeing you makes me want to do something more profound."

Mei blushed, slapped Xu Qi, and said, "Can't you think about something serious?"

"Is this the important matter?" Xu Qi whispered in Mei's ear, "Yesterday was quite comfortable, wasn't it..."

Mei's cheeks flushed even more as she recalled her experiences from the previous day...

Mei glanced at Airi behind her, then shook her head and said, "It will wake Airi up."

Xu Qi reached out and touched it, experiencing the feel through the silk pajamas—it was indeed a completely different feel from Ying's.

They were just like Mei, gently trying to adapt to Xu Qi, soft and yielding...

He lowered his head, lightly pecked Mei's lips, and whispered, "Then let's use the old method."

The old method?

Mei understood, gave Xu Qi a charming glare, and reached down with her slender hand.

Their lips parted, and Mei's face was so flushed it looked like it was about to bleed.

Xu Qi laughed and said, "Knowing that you're on your period, I didn't dare to put my hand inside for fear of infecting you, so I just rubbed it around outside for you."

This is utter nonsense...

Xu Qi lowered his head again, this time moving to a different spot to bring his head closer, gently plucking and caressing, first the snow-capped peaks, then the cherry blossoms.

Mei quickly covered her lips with her other hand! Afraid of crying out... You must be kidding... Alicia is right beside her!

Moreover, how could Mei not know the feelings that Airi had for Xu Qi?

But... this feeling... is so exciting...

Of course, what Mei and Xu Qi didn't know was that Airi, who had her back to them, had already opened her eyes and was now covering her lips, her face flushed with embarrassment—that jerk Xu Qi! So mean!

Fortunately, the process did not last long.

The morning was the most exciting time, and coupled with the thrilling scene, the two quickly confessed one after the other.

Xu Qi, panting, half-closed his eyes, savoring the lingering afterglow.

Mei... she was the same way. She was about to look down at Xu Qi, but as her gaze shifted downwards... she saw Xu Qi's back.

Ok?

Mei glanced at it a few more times with suspicion. The bright red mark looked very abrupt, as if someone had scratched Xu Qi from behind.

How could this happen? Who has the ability to hurt Xu Qi?

Xu Qi looked up and saw Mei's slightly puzzled expression. He couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong, Mei?"

What happened to the scratches on your back?

……

The atmosphere became somewhat silent for a moment.

Ellie's eyelids twitched—scratches on her back? What was that? Had she scratched Xu Qi's back?

At this moment... Xu Qi's heart is pounding wildly!

"It was probably from when he wrestled with Fu Hua."

Mei, unsuspecting, nodded in realization and patted Xu Qi's chest lightly, saying, "You've been playing pretty wildly... Hurry up and pack your things, or it won't be good if Airi finds out."
