No Surprises

In the dining room, Cang Xiaolou, who did not understand the twists and turns between a man and a woman, looked curiously at the bite mark on Cang Xu's shoulder. "Daddy, did someone bite you?"

"My woman." Cang Xu casually pulled out a chair and sat down. His expression was calm as if these words could not be more ordinary.

"Cough, cough!" Long Qin, who was engrossed in drinking the soup, choked.

Cang Xiaolou quickly got up and patted Long Qin's back and handed her a piece of tissue. "Qinqin, what's wrong? Don't worry, you didn't bite my father's shoulder. You don't have to be nervous."

Long Qin, "…" Can she still eat?

Cang Liu also choked. He raised his eyes to look at Cang Xu and persevered to the end. "Big Brother, I already said that I bit you. Why didn't you believe me?"

He was afraid that the greater Cang Xu's hope, the greater his disappointment. Moreover, he knew who had left the bite mark, so he didn't want Cang Xu to have any fantasies!

Cang Xu ignored Cang Liu completely. The things he had set his mind on would not be changed by others. He had raised the woman since he was 12. No one was more familiar than him. It was integrated into his bones and blood and could not be forgotten.

Cang Xiaolou reacted for a while and suddenly became excited. "Daddy, do you mean that Mommy is back?"

Cang Xu nodded. "Yes, she's back."

Cang Xiaolou exclaimed, "Wow. Then where's Mommy?"

Cang Xu's eyes darkened as he frowned and did not answer. He also wanted to know why that woman did not appear since she was back. His voice was low. "There's no hurry. I'll catch your mother. She's always been mischievous and restless. When I catch her, I'll lock her up for three days and three nights. Let's see if she dares to run away next time."

When Cang Xiaolou heard this, he immediately retorted, "Daddy! That's not how you usually educate me. You said that your woman should be pampered well. Even if she made a mistake, you should be magnanimous and take responsibility for it. That makes a real good man!"

"What do you know? I don't need you to teach me how to do things."

Cang Xiaolou snorted angrily. "It must be because you treated Mom badly that Mom abandoned us. You have to learn more from me. Qinqin treats me very well and will never leave me."

"Cough, cough!" Long Qin choked again. However, alarm bells rang in her heart. It seemed that she had to add more medicine that would make it difficult for people to wake up tonight. She could not escape in a sorry state like last night.

That night, Cang Xu drank Long Qin's prescription which gave an even drowsier effect before he went to bed. He slept even deeper than yesterday. Late at night, he had the same high fever as last night. His entire body was cold. Even though his body was strong, he had trouble withstanding it.

Cang Liu was experienced. He was not as flustered as last night. Instead, he immediately pulled the main power switch of the manor. After the power was cut, the surveillance cameras could not work. Then, he used the flashlight and quietly went to Long Qin's small building to knock on the door. "Miss Long, Miss Long can come out now.

Long Qin opened the door and followed Cang Liu. On the way, Cang Liu could not help showing off. "Miss Long, I'm smart, right? I've turned off the electricity in the entire manor and the surveillance cameras have stopped working. You can go and relieve the aftereffects of the medicine for my brother, but let me remind you again, don't take advantage of my brother!"

Long Qin couldn't help but roll her eyes. "I told you I didn't do it on purpose. Besides, I already have someone I like."

Cang Liu said, "Miss Long, stop pretending. I know that girls have strong self-esteem and would rather say that they have someone they like to resolve the awkwardness of being rejected. I understand."

Everyone knew that Long Qin had just returned from the penal planet. How could she have a sweetheart on Earth?

The two of them sneaked to the main building, then from the first floor to the second, and finally to Cang Xu's bedroom.

Cang Liu said, "We're here. Miss Long, you can go in. Take good care of my brother. I can't take it anymore. I'll go to sleep first."

Cang Xu was much better after being treated by Long Qin last night, so there was no need for anyone to guard him.

After Cang Liu left, Long Qin quietly walked into Cang Xu's bedroom and subconsciously locked the door. Then, she tiptoed closer to the bed.

Cang Xu was still in a sorry state. The cold sweat made him less indifferent. His sweat-drenched hair stuck to his forehead, but it inexplicably made him look hotter. Perhaps it was the effect of the medicine, but Cang Xu did not wake up tonight, nor did he groggily pull her into his arms. During the five minutes of heat transmission, nothing happened and it was simply perfect!
