Chapter 39 - Male Seductress

Looking at his back, Ashley hesitated for a few seconds.

She wanted to crumble on his back, but she seemed to remember something. She quickly withdrew her hand and said solemnly, "No."

Hearing this, Jacob looked back, "Again?"

Ashley nodded and said, "The doctor said you should avoid heavy manual labor for three months."

Jacob was slightly stupefied, and the corners of his lips bent up, "You still remember being so drunk?"

As if she didn't hear what he said, Ashley didn't answer, but kept her eyes down, snapped her fingers, and slowly counted, "You did the operation in November. So, December, thirteen, fourteen. "

"No."

As if finding something was wrong, Ashley frowned, "Twelve, thirteen."... "

"...."

Jacob smiled, "Twelve, one."

It was only then that Ashley looked at him.

Her mind was as confused as a ball line. She didn't know why she jumped from twelve to one. She hesitated and said, "That's, that's a few months. Brother, please count it for me. "

"Three months."

Ashley said, but she didn't think anything was wrong.

She stood up painstakingly, sniffled, and asked, "It's been three months. Can you carry me now? "

Ashley smiled, "Yes."

Ashley suddenly remembered another thing, "But I am over 40 kg now."

With that, Ashley began to cry again, breaking down, "I am over 40 kg."

"..."

"I still…" she looked down, froze, crying more bitterly, "My breasts are too small. They are too small… "

Jacob was still squatting on the ground.

Maybe he didn't expect to hear such words. He was stunned for a few seconds, and then she made him laugh.

His chest heaved, he laughed out of breath, and his voice was a little hoarse.

"What are you talking about?"

"Why are you laughing at me?"

Ashley pointed at him and said angrily, "Your breasts are small too. Why are you laughing at me?"

"Well, it’s true."

Jacob immediately reined in, "So let's comfort each other, shall we?"

"…"

Ashley immediately stopped crying and fell willingly on his back as if she had found a teammate. "Well, then don't, don't be too sad."

Ashley stood up and said with a smile, "Well, I'm not sad."

Ashley wiped her tears with gloves, "Brother, what if I throw up again?"

Jacob threw his clothes into the trash can next to him, looked around, and coaxed, "Tell me when you want to puke."

She gave a hiccup. "What if I can't help it?"

"Then just go ahead," Jacob said. "Just don't throw up on brother's head."

Ashley did not speak anymore.

Fearing that she would be more uncomfortable in the car, Jacob didn't get her into the car and carried her in the direction of Silver River University.

He asked casually, "You have a plane to catch tomorrow. Why are you still drinking today?"

Ashley put her chin on his shoulder and whispered, "I'm not happy."

"…"

She was going to cry again, and her voice was dull, "Ash is unhappy."

Jacob looked at her and said, "Why is Ash unhappy?"

Ashley did not answer.

Jacob withdrew his sight and looked ahead.

The night was dark, and his expression was so shadowy that he could not really see it, "Because of the person you like?"

Ashley rubbed her tears and made a hum.

"Can you tell who he is?"

"No."

"Then describe him to brother," Jacob said calmly. "What kind of person he is, whether he is good or not, whether he is good to you or not."

Ashley raised her head and looked at his side face.

For a while, she tilted her head and stumbled out a word, "Male…male…"

She didn't finish what she said for a long time.

"Male what?"

Jacob said, "Male God?"

Ashley shook her head and said, "Male, male seductress."

Jacob, “..."

"He is very kind, and he is also very nice to me."

Ashley's mood suddenly dropped and she choked with sobs. "But he is good to everyone, he is good to everyone... "

"…"

Speaking of this, Ashley suddenly got angry, and her voice was suddenly raised, crying and shouting, "He is like a central air conditioning, warming everyone.”

"Scum man?"

This time Jacob did not laugh, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "Do you like him so much?"

Ashley really felt sad and buried her face in his shoulder. Tears kept falling and cries kept coming out of her throat, completely uncontrollable, like a child.

"..."

His tone was mild, "Just don't like him, all right?"

Ashley stopped talking to cry.

Jacob did not say anything again.

He entered the gate of Silver River University and walked to Ashley's dormitory according to his previous impression.

The cry of the girl on his back gradually died down until there was no sound, and she seemed to be asleep.

The school at night was quiet and lively, with huddled students coming and going.

On the way into the dormitory, the light was warm yellow, dyeing the tiny snow.

It was like entering another world in an instant.

It was so quiet that the sound of snow could be heard.

Jacob suddenly looked back at her.

He noticed that Ashley had closed her eyes as if she was tired of crying and fell asleep, but the tears were still flowing out.

Even when she was asleep, she was very sad.

Ashley called her, "Ashley."

All I got was a silent response.

Her breathing was uniform and rhythmic, slapping on his neck, warm and shallow.

Jacob stared at her for a long time, then suddenly laughed and said, "Do you like that kind of man?"

"…"

"A male seductress?"

"Then," murmured Jacob, "Can I become like that?"

The little girl was silent, dragged into her dream by tiredness and drowsiness, and could not hear anything.

"And then I will be the only one nice to you, all right?"

Jacob continued, "Then Ash won't be so sad."

"I can't put my mind at ease when someone else takes care of you."

"Does it work?"

"…"

"If you don't answer, brother will take it as your consent."

Jacob waited for a long time.

His eyebrows gradually spread out, and he smiled, "Well, Ash agreed."

"Brother's conditions are all right," Jacob said. "I am not poor anymore. I’m handsome. Except for being a little older than you. "

"When I was twenty, you said I was old, and now you are almost twenty."

He seemed to think it made sense and joked, "So Little Ashley is also old."

The little girl who has been taken care of by him for so many years.

‘If she can meet someone she likes and always treats her well.

Of course, that's good.

But he was afraid that she would get hurt in the relationship.

Like tonight, she doesn't dare to speak her mind even when she is drunk.

She cried even when she was asleep.’

Jacob thought.

‘Apart from her family, there should be no one who can treat her better than him.’

"Brother will earn more money so that I can buy you many clothes and candies."

Jacob said, "Then you forgive your brother…"

"For wanting to date a young girl."

He smiled, "Is that OK?"

Ashley, vaguely, heard Jacob wake her up and asked her what the dormitory number was, and then he carried her upstairs.

He made her a glass of honey water and let her finish it.

He seemed to ask a girl from the dormitory next door to help her change her clothes.

Then Ashley climbed into bed and went to sleep.

By the time she woke up, it was the next morning.

She had a terrible headache and sat up blankly, a little dazed for a moment.

Memories of last night sprang up in an instant.

She said a lot of things.

She also told him that I have someone I like.

But she didn't seem to have said anything she didn’t want to say.

But...

She puked on his clothes.

"…"

Ashley grabbed her hair hard and buried her face in the quilt.

She looked at her phone and found that Jacob had sent her several messages.

She pursed her lips and checked them.

The other roommates woke up a long time ago.

Noticing her movement, they all looked over.

Vivian sat in her seat, looked up at her, and gossiped, "Ashley, was that the man your brother's friend?"

Ashley paused and raised her eyes, "Yes."

Lily got excited and said, "Fuck, he is really handsome! He's so f*cking handsome! "

"Oh, really, my boyfriend is like a dinosaur by comparison."

Sophie held her heart. "When we came back yesterday, we thought we were in the wrong dormitory."

Ashley couldn't help asking, "When did he leave?"

"We came back around 12:00," Sophie said. "He seemed to be sitting in your seat all the time, and he left when we came back."

Vivian, "He should be afraid that you are not feeling well, so he stayed here to take care of you." Ashley nodded and looked down at her cell phone.

Brother No. 2: [I asked your roommate to wake you up at nine o'clock.]

Brother No. 2: [You have to get up, or you can't catch the plane.]

Brother No. 2: [Drink some water. I'll come and take you to the airport at ten o'clock.]

Ashley replied "OK", and then checked the time. It was nine o'clock.

She lifted the quilt and began to make the bed, saying, "I'll be a pig if I drink any more in my life."

Lily was curious, "What did you do?"

Ashley couldn’t say it.

Vivian smiled and said, "Did you kiss him?"

Ashley looked up abruptly. "Don't talk nonsense."

"Did you confess?"

Ashley took the cover off and glanced at them, "Then I would have been crazy now."

Sophie, "What on earth did you do?"

Ashley stopped, tangled for a long time, and said, "I threw up on him."

"…"

The dormitory was quiet for a long time.

Lily coughed softly, "No wonder I felt a smell yesterday."

Vivian said sympathetically, "Your secret love seems to be over."

Sophie "Why didn't you put up with it?"

"I didn't want to."

Ashley exhaled and immediately remembered the picture.

She smelled herself and frowned, "Oh, whatever. I'll apologize to him later."

Sophie, "But he doesn't seem to dislike it."

"He has such a good temper that he won't be angry if I throw up on his head."

Ashley quickly made up the bed and got out of bed. "I have to take a bath first."

She took a change of clothes and went into the toilet.

A moment before entering the toilet, Ashley could still hear her roommates phraising him.

"…"

After taking a bath, Ashley blew her hair dry with a hairdryer.

She didn't seem to be in a good state of mind because she was drunk.

Ashley quickly put on a little makeup, then opened her suitcase and began to pack her things.

She had nothing to take home, except for the computer and a few books, as well as bedsheets to be changed.

It didn't take her a while to pack up.

It was exactly ten o'clock when Ashley said goodbye to her roommates and pulled her suitcase out of the dormitory.

Because when it was time for the holiday, people could drive the car into the school.

As soon as she left the dormitory, Ashley saw Jacob's car.

She dillydallied over, thinking about how it would be appropriate to apologize to him.

Soon, Jacob got out of the car and came over to pull the suitcase for her.

Ashley dared not look at him and whispered, "Good morning, brother."

Jacob said, "Good morning."

She stopped talking, planned to get in the car and apologize to him, so she went straight to the passenger seat.

Jacob put her suitcase in the trunk and got in the car a little later than her.

Hearing the sound of the car door closing, Ashley looked over and hesitated, "I drank too much yesterday. I didn't feel well…"

Jacob looked at her and said, "Mm-hmm."

"So I couldn't help it." Ashley was a little embarrassed and bowed her head. "I accidentally threw up on you. It's disgusting. I'm sorry, brother. "

He said carelessly, "It's all right."

Ashley felt that he had leaned over.

She took a breath, subconsciously raised her eyes, happened to meet his eyes.

Jacob looked at her steadily and suddenly smiled.

He leaned a little closer, reached out in the direction of her side face, and grabbed the seat belt next to her.

But he was in no hurry to go back.

"What's the matter?"

Ashley felt inexplicable and uncomfortable when he looked at her like this and withdrew her eyes. "Oh, I forgot... "

Jacob fastened it to her but still looked at her without moving his eyes.

His eyes slightly converged, deep and affectionate, with a bit of seduction.

Feeling that he was still looking at himself, Ashley couldn't help saying, "What are you doing?"

Jacob sat back slowly, bowed his head, and fastened his seat belt, with a faint smile, "Nothing."

Ashley wondered, "Oh."

He then started the car.

Ashley glanced at him and thought it was a little strange, but she couldn't tell.

She scratched her head, didn't pay much attention, and looked down at the boarding time, "2:30, are we going to the airport now?"

"Let's go to lunch first."

Thinking of going back for a month or so, Ashley hesitated and asked, "Brother, how do you plan to spend the New year?"

"Watching the Spring Festival Gala at home?"

Jacob thought for a moment, "and then wait for Little Ashley's text message."

"…"

‘It sounds so miserable.’

"Well."

Ashley pursed her lips and weighed her words. "You are 27 this year. You should have a girlfriend."

"Where can I get a girlfriend?"

It was the red light. Jacob stopped the car and said lazily, "Little Ashley introduced one to brother?"

Ashley was inexplicable, "How? All I know are of my age."

Hearing this, Jacob looked sideways and swept gently and quickly from top to bottom.

He smiled, with his eyes ambiguous and gentle, "Really?"

Ashley guessed that he would say, "Forget it, your bunch of kids."

She nodded in silence.

After pausing for a few seconds, Jacob raised his eyebrow and laughed with a long breath.

As it happened, the green light came on and he took back his sight.

At the same time as the car started, Ashley heard him say two words again, in a soft voice, as if nothing had happened.

"It’s okay."
