  Lin Shu had never seen Xiao Shao take off the silver mask.

  Although…… he was curious about Xiao Shao’s face, Xiao Shao had vaguely stated that the first time he would show his face was only for his future wife, so he gave up.

  The mask fell to the ground at this time.

  He didn’t know if it was accidentally knocked off, or Xiao Shao took it off by himself.

  Lin Shu was a little cautious, and asked, “Can I see your face?”

  Xiao Shao tightened the hand around his waist and said nothing.

  Lin Shu was very nervous.

  After a while, he heard Xiao Shao say gently: “It was originally for you to see.”

  Xiao Shao let go, got up and walked forward, then turned to look at him.

  Lin Shu looked up.

  ——And he saw it.

  All of a sudden, everything was quiet at that moment.

  Lin Shu was stunned. In an instant, he felt that he had fallen into the flourishing red and bright moon.

  He looked at Xiao Shao’s face and didn’t speak for a long time until Xiao Shao came near and asked, “Why are you not speaking?”

  Lin Shu shook his head.

  Xiao Shao touched Lin Shu’s head, then leaned over slightly.

  Lin Shu reached out to touch Xiao Shao’s face.

  Strangely, he did not find it peculiar.

  Xiao Shao’s face was like this. In his subconscious, it had always been like this.

  Lin Shu’s finger touched the corner of Xiao Shao’s eye.

  It was a face with a sharp outline, enough to make people remember it. The eyebrows and phoenix eyes were trimmed, the bridge of the nose was tall and the lips were a little thin, but the shape was very nice.

  Xiao Shao’s eyebrows were very similar to Ling Fengxiao, but there were many differences in the specific outline.

  It was also a little like the cousin, some shadows could be found in the facial features, but mainly he was like the Big Miss.

  When Lin Shu had used the Illusory Pill and turned himself to ‘Yu Su’, he had just fine-tuned the original features a bit more. If someone he knew had seen him at that time, they would just think that ‘Yu Su’ was Lin Shu’s older sister or younger sister. This situation now was the same with Xiao Shao and the Big Miss.

  The domineering beauty of the Big Miss was replaced by simplicity and it was beautiful, like the moon in the sky, and a little cold.

  He also had the scent of a winter plum like the Big Miss.

  At this moment, Lin Shu suddenly couldn’t distinguish Xiao Shao from the Big Miss.

  He raised his eyes to see Xiao Shao.

  It was like walking on the snow to find the plum in the night, he followed the incense, searched in the snow, but did not find it, then he looked up and saw the full moon in the clouds.

  Xiao Shao said, “Do I look good?”

  \r \r \r

  Lin Shu: “You are very good looking.”

  Xiao Shao curled his lips and smiled.

  At this moment, there seemed to be the brilliance of the moon in his eyes, which was a very gentle light, it made the originally cold and high eyebrows lively, making Lin Shu unnaturally pursed his lips.

  Xiao Shao said, “You are very good-looking, too.”

  He reached for Lin Shu’s face and gave him a kiss on the forehead.

  Lin Shu closed his eyes and felt Xiao Shao’s cool fingertips tracing his lips.

  Xiao Shao said, “May I kiss you here?”

  Lin Shu whispered “En” quietly.

  Xiao Shao touched his lips gently.

  Lin Shu thought a little blankly, it was a very soft kiss.

  Xiao Shao let go of him.

  Lin Shu opened his eyes, and then he was hugged by Xiao Shao and pushed gently to lay flat on the bed.

  He didn’t move, he just looked at Xiao Shao.

  Xiao Shao said, “Why are you so obedient?”

  Lin Shu turned away.

  Xiao Shao started to touch him.

  Lin Shu: “!!!”

  He grasped the water-like silk quilt tightly under him, slightly trembling. He was having difficulty breathing and speaking, “No…… Okay……”

  Xiao Shao: “Your reaction is so big.”

  But of course.

  I am allergic to people.

  Lin Shu was like a salted fish caught on the shore by the waves. He thought in despair that ‘I didn’t react like this before because I was desensitized to you. Now I don’t know how I began to be allergic again.’

  He explained, “I…… I have never been touched before. ”

  Xiao Shao leaned over to kiss his cheek and said, “It’s not that you have never been touched, it’s that……”

  What is it?

  Lin Shu was very curious, but Xiao Shao didn’t go on, he just changed his words and said, “Be good, relax a little.”

  None of what he said happened.

  It was impossible to relax.

  Every time he was touched, he wanted to run away immediately.

  He wanted to escape from this room, or get into the quilt, or stay away from Xiao Shao – and then flutter in Xiao Shao’s arms, making some sounds similar to humming and chirping, before being held down by Xiao Shao.

  Xiao Shao stopped pressing at the end, lay down beside him and smiled.

  Lin Shu: “???”

  Shao gege, your smile is a little perverted.

  He half-raised himself up from the bed and asked Xiao Shao what to do.

  Xiao Shao said: “We cannot proceed further, unless I force you.”

  Lin Shu had already smashed the jar and smashed it completely: “Then you can force it.”

  Xiao Shao said: “You are so adorable, I don’t want to force it.”

  Lin Shu: “.……”

  He looked at the ceiling and felt the confusion of life.

  After a long time, Xiao Shao said, “Did you keep the medicines?”

  Lin Shu: “Medicines?”

  “Those pills from the black market supervisor.”

  Lin Shu remembered.

  When the two of them were in women’s clothing and sold themselves in the black market, they threatened a supervisor in the black market. The supervisor sent them away like they were the God of Pestilence. Not only did they come out with a lot of dresses, hairpin rings, jewelry, rouge gouache, but also there were some messy medicines that were not a good thing at first glance.

  He took the medicine out of the brocade bag and poured it on the bed.

  Xiao Shao opened it one by one, observed and smelled it a little.

  There were many courses on identifying plants and medicines in the Academy, and both of them had taken all of them. These medicines were not complicated elixirs, so it was easy to identify what they were made of and what they were for.

  Xiao Shao went through all these medicines with a very critical eye. Finally, he chose the most mild one and poured out one.

  Then fished out Lin Shu from the quilt and fed him.

  Lin Shu took the medicine from Xiao Shao’s hand. After a while, a warm feeling started springing up in his blood. He seemed to have been anesthetized and sensed his acupoints getting sealed. He felt weak and didn’t want to move.

  So, although he was still allergic, he did not have the strength to flutter.

  Xiao Shao continued.

  Lin Shu put his elbow across his eyes and held it down. He did not look at the ceiling or Xiao Shao. In this way, although he was still shaking, he could cheat himself into believing that nothing happened.

  Xiao Shao put his arm aside and said, “Take away your little paws.”

  Lin Shu looked at him with his eyes open.

  Xiao Shao felt the stare and with a smile, put his arm down again: “It’s better to cover it.”

  Lin Shu: “?”

  Xiao Shao said: “Your eyes always make me feel like I am bullying you.”

  Lin Shu thought, aren’t you indeed bullying me?

  So he put down his arm and continued to look at Xiao Shao directly, in order to increase the person’s sense of guilt.

  Xiao Shao continued to smile, his eyes were like peach blossoms, full of amusement.

  After laughing, he said, “What do you want me to do if you are like this?”

  His voice was a little hoarse, which made Lin Shu shake again.

  Lin Shu looked into Xiao Shao’s eyes.

  He didn’t know how to describe it, but he knew, this was a very doting look.

  It was not a look for a frivolous pet, but a cherished one, like looking at something that he liked and was very important.

  He had never been treated like this before.

  He reached out and touched Xiao Shao’s face, then stroked his hair, he felt very soft in his heart, and wanted to cry.

  Xiao Shao looked at him, kissed his eyes, and then said, “I can’t do it but at the same time I can’t stop touching you.”

  Then he asked, “Otherwise, should I take medicine too?”

  Then he denied himself and said, “No.”

  Lin Shu: “.……”
