The morning sun shone on the young girl’s face, giving her cheeks a gilded look. The young girl’s red lips were pressed against the pale lips of the one lying on the bed.

Ming Liuyi had not intended for things to develop this way. This was her first kiss, but it was not like she could do anything about it. She closed her eyes tightly and thought to herself in surprise, ‘Yao Zizhou’s lips are so soft.’

Ming Liuyi was only absent-minded for a moment, causing a bit of milk to slip from her mouth and into Yao Zizhou’s mouth. She immediately realized her mistake and quickly focused, taking small gulps herself. Then, she wiped away the residue from Yao Zizhou’s mouth.

It was uncertain if it was because Yao Ziyang did not say anything, or if Ming Liuyi was too focused, but in any case, Ming Liuyi was no longer aware of her surroundings. It was as if they were the only two left in the world.

Just like that, she single-mindedlyfinished feeding him all the milk.

The feeling of their lips touching seemed to be more wonderful than she had imagined. Coupled with her rapid heartbeat, Ming Liuyi felt like she was being lured into a sense of romance.

After drinking the last mouthful, Ming Liuyi hurriedly showed the empty cup to Yao Ziyang on the other end of the video call, then she hung up the phone with a click. She turned and rushed into the bathroom, stuck two fingers down her throat, and regurgitated as much milk as she could.

Ming Liuyi had drunk a cup of poisoned milk on an empty stomach, so she vomited violently. At this time, she felt so uncomfortable that her eyes were filled with tears. She rinsed her mouth and ingested a drop of spiritual water. Then, she could not stay conscious any longer. With cold sweat on her head, she collapsed on the bed and fell asleep.

Before she went to sleep, Ming Liuyi thought to herself that her first kiss was the worst!

While Ming Liuyi was asleep, Yao Zizhou began a new round of self-doubt. At that moment, his mind was in turmoil. When Ming Liuyi held his hand, he had already regained consciousness.

In the past, he had always thought that this world was normal. He was also a firm materialist. However, the recent events were really difficult for him to explain with science.

For example, he could only gain consciousness when Ming Liuyi touched him, and Ming Liuyi seemed to have become a completely different person.

In the past, Ming Liuyi could not wait for him to die so that she could be free. Going by normal reasoning, she should be prying his mouth open and forcing the poisoned milk down his throat, right? But Ming Liuyi was willing to drink the poisoned milk for him.

Even his biological parents would not be willing to go to this extent, what was Ming Liuyi thinking? And… in that kind of way…

The girl’s warm breath came close to him, and her soft lips, with the clear breath of the mountain spring, gently kissed his lips.

Acting! Ming Liuyi was definitely acting.

Yao Zizhou could only use self-denial to explain the abnormality. Of course, if he could ignore the comfort and cleanliness of his body, the warm feeling in his stomach, the obvious improvement in his calf muscles, and the soft lingering touch on his lips…

It had only been a few hours, but the woman beside him was in a completely different state than last night.

Last night, Ming Liuyi was warm and soft, relaxed and comfortable, lying on the bed without restraint, like a little kitten that constantly needed sleep.

But right at that moment, Ming Liuyi’s entire form was trembling, and her body was covered in cold sweat. She was curled up, leaning lightly against his side.

Yao Zizhou could clearly feel her discomfort.

She lay on her side, and her lips brushed against his arm. Unlike the warmth from before, her lips were cold.

Yao Zizhou’s felt a chill in his heart, which twitched uncomfortably, and an unspeakable sadness enveloped him. Why did she have to do this?

Yao Zizhou’s heart was burning with anger. How could he rely on a woman to protect him! But his current state… He tried to move his fingers, but no matter how much strength he used in his body, there was no reaction. Dispirited, he thought, ‘What kind of life is this?’ The first half of his life was full of glory, and yet he had to live out the rest of his life as a vegetable. However, while he was conscious, he watched as his relatives constantly tried to harm him, and his wife shelter him from the onslaught, yet he was helpless.

While Ming Liuyi slept, the entire villa had undergone a tremendous reassignment of staff. The previously vacant housekeeping “positions” were all filled by unfamiliar faces. There were also more bodyguards, and the entire villa became tense and quiet.

Xiao Fan was finally allowed to come in at lunch. She had wanted to deliver breakfast much earlier, but was stopped by the bodyguard. She waited anxiously until noon before the bodyguard let her go in.

Seeing Ming Liuyi’s pale face, Xiao Fan’s eyes reddened. “Madam, what’s going on?”
