CHAPTER 90: CHAPTER 90: PLEASE KEEP LOVING ME

"I-I want to go home!" Ruan Li staggered, swaying as she walked.

Huishi practically held her entire body in his arms, his thin figure not lacking in strength.

"Master, let me help you into the room to rest first."

He held Ruan Li as she occasionally rambled on about things like "I don’t agree to the cooperation," "Release Xu Mo," and so on.

He heard the name Xu Mo a dozen times from Ruan Li’s mouth.

He thought, perhaps it was a Beastman she was very fond of.

The door opened, and Huishi helped Ruan Li to the bed.

She flopped onto the bed, muttering softly.

Huishi helped her settle down, removed her shoes and socks, and covered her with a blanket.

Sitting by the bedside, he looked at her drunken demeanor, lost in thought.

Was she really drunk?

Could just a little bit of fruit wine make her this drunk?

Or was it that she was deliberately trying to escape him?

Huishi reached out to brush aside the hair on her face, revealing her slightly flushed complexion.

Ruan Li’s mind was indeed a little heavy, just slightly tipsy at the moment.

She couldn’t resist Huishi’s actions in such an intoxicating environment, he claimed to have secretly smuggled from the Deserted Star to S Star, with both parents deceased and a young brother to raise. He turned eighteen just three days ago.

With a lowly posture and pleading, beautiful eyes he looked at her, saying:

"Master, please have mercy on me."

Ruan Li almost wanted to take out all the money in her pocket for him.

At this moment, Ruan Li lay with her eyes closed on the bed, hearing the faint sounds of movement from Huishi.

The sound of a teacup placed on the bedside, him quietly sitting by the bed, breathing steadily, Ruan Li could feel his burning gaze.

A cool kiss fell, careful, simply lingering on her lips for a long time.

His fingertips trembling as they traced her brows, downwards to the corner of her lip.

Huishi felt somewhat fortunate that at least the first customer he met was such a beautiful and noble female.

But she didn’t want him.

Perhaps she despised him.

But besides his now-clean body, he had nothing to offer Ruan Li.

The subtle rustling of the bedding was particularly noticeable in this quiet room.

Huishi slipped under the covers, holding Ruan Li, both hopeful and cautious.

"Master, I know you’re still awake."

After all, such a stiff body doesn’t seem like a drunk person’s.

"Just think of it as helping me."

"If tomorrow, they find the golden sand still on me, they will torture me to the point of wishing for death."

"They don’t directly hit people when torturing, it would damage the appearance. When I first came here, I didn’t know it was for this kind of thing. I wanted to run as soon as I arrived, but they locked me up, it was so dark and silent like the whole world had died. They only gave me a bit of expired nutrient solution when I was starving, and after I turned eighteen, they gave me some food to increase muscle."

He whispered his experience, a hot tear dropping onto Ruan Li’s cheek.

"Ruan Li, please help me..."

He placed her hand over his heart, "Your name is written here, I am yours."

Ruan Li opened her eyes, unable to tell if her heart was more filled with pity or the weighing of pros and cons at that moment.

Huishi proactively kissed her chin, softly saying, "You can refuse me anytime."

Ruan Li lifted his chin and pressed down, kissing him.

The golden sand traced on the heart seemed to glow with a faint warmth.

Amber eyes misted over with tears, he looked up at the female above, "Ruan Li, please keep caring for me."

...

In the afternoon, Ruan Li rubbed her slightly sore temples, recalling what had happened last night as she saw the messy bed.

The sound of cooking came from the living room.

Ruan Li picked up a piece of clothing from the floor and put it on. As she stepped out of the bedroom, she saw Huishi wearing an apron, his upper body bare, evidently in a good mood as he hummed an unknown tune.

Ruan Li’s gaze fell on his beautiful back muscles and butterfly bones, now covered with red scratches.

Huishi seemed to notice her gaze, paused, turned to look at her, and smiled lightly, "Ruan Li, you’re awake."

"Hmm... How much money do you need? Would fifty thousand be enough?"

Ruan Li remembered what he said last night, that he came to S Star to earn money to raise his brother, and was deceived into doing such things here.

Huishi’s smile slightly faded, "That’s too much, ten thousand would suffice."

Ten thousand would be enough to retrieve his contract of servitude.

"Give me your account number, I’ll transfer the money to you."

"I... can I refuse the money?" Huishi asked, his voice growing softer.

"What?" Ruan Li didn’t hear clearly, and asked.

"It’s nothing, okay, I’ll send it to you now."

A moment later, Huishi’s phone chimed, indicating his account had received fifty thousand.

"From now on, find a proper job to support yourself and your brother. I’ll find someone to help you with your matters, no one will trouble you."

Huishi didn’t expect she was going to leave just like that.

"Won’t you stay for a bite? I can cook a little."

Ruan Li smelled the aroma of the dishes, "No, I’m not hungry."

After saying this, she left immediately, hailing a cab and heading directly to the Lu Family.

She hadn’t yet figured out how to explain to her Beast Husband what happened last night.

Ruan Li took a deep breath, turned on her Smart Brain, and indeed saw many missed calls and messages.

She explained to several Beast Husbands one by one, saying she returned to the Lu Family after discussing with Ruan Jiao last night.

"Miss! You’re back," the butler exclaimed joyfully upon seeing Ruan Li standing at the mansion entrance, working hard on her Smart Brain to cover up her absence.

"Ah, right, is Mother home?" Ruan Li copied and pasted her explanation to the three Beast Husbands, then turned off her Smart Brain and followed the butler inside.

"The Madam went out shopping. Do you want me to notify her that you’ve returned?"

Ruan Li waved her hand, "No need, I’m just here to pick up some things."

She went to her room, quickly took a shower, sprayed some scent remover, and then some perfume.

However, returning to the doorway, she still moved silently, like a thief.

"Ruannuan, you’re back." Xi Han spotted her immediately.

But her guilty demeanor was truly too suspicious.

His ice-blue eyes fell on Ruan Li’s lips.

What should have been light pink lips were like ripe cherries, exuding a sweet fragrance, looking as if they had been thoroughly ravished.

Ruan Li noticed Xi Han’s silence and felt a moment of panic, she forced a smile and tried to act nonchalant, "Xi Han, are you home alone?"

Xi Han said nothing, he walked slowly over to Ruan Li.

The sound of footsteps echoed like the ticking of a clock, gradually approaching the end.

Click.

He stopped in front of Ruan Li, leaned down, and his nose twitched.

The ice-blue eyes grew deeper.

"Ruan Li, you smell so nice."

"Hehe, do I? Maybe I accidentally sprayed a bit too much perfume this morning."

Ruan Li laughed awkwardly twice, speaking with her nerves on edge.
