Qiao Mu was choked to the point of not being able to say anything. She didn't want to use a condom to blow a balloon. Since she didn't know how to answer, she casually said a few words and prepared to change the topic.

"Uncle, did you apply any medicine on the wound in your palm?"

Xi Mubai did not say anything. Instead, he opened up his palm in front of Qiao Mu. The wound had turned dark red and a thin layer of blood was forming on it.

The energy saving lamp in the room was very dim. Qiao Mu could still see the trace of irrepressible lust on the face of Xi Muqiao as she gradually suppressed it. Her pitch-black eyes were like a deep pool of water that could not be seen.

That burning gaze was like a scalpel, slicing open her clothes layer by layer and gradually penetrating deep into her bones and blood.

Qiao Mu's eyebrows drooped down and those small eyes seemed to have a different kind of delicate and touching look. However, this expression caused Xi Muqiao's desire to soar and gave him a strange feeling of conquest.

"Da-Uncle."

"Eh?"

"My face is swollen." Qiao Mu's meaning was that she was not suitable to do this sort of thing if she was injured.

"Well, we don't use face when we do it."

"I have a concussion."

Xi Muqiao remained unmoved as he spoke in a suppressed voice, "It's light. Just lie down. Let me do it."

Qiao Mu's old blood was stuck in his throat and he almost choked to death. Damn a beast! Even his brain had been shaken by this man to the point of not letting her go.

She asked with a sorrowful expression, "Am I unable to escape tonight?"

Xi Muqiao's eyes twitched as a hint of a smile appeared at the corners of his eyes. "I think so."

Hearing that, Qiao Mu lay down flat, his hands busy with the bed. He took off his old-fashioned floral pajamas and threw them to the side. Xi Muqiao raised her eyebrows. Would she be able to take them off if she took them off her body?

Next, the pajamas were flung out, and the light in Xi Muqiao's eyes dimmed. Then, a pair of pink cartoon underpants was flung out. Qiao Mu opened up his limbs, giving off a rather sorrowful feeling.

"Come on. Since you can't refuse, then enjoy it."

The corner of Xi Muqiao's eyes twitched. This little bastard, where did he learn all this nonsense, and yet he's still enjoying it?

Her waist suddenly tightened and she screamed as Xi Muqiao pulled her into his embrace.

The smooth touch made Xi Muqiao's breathing quicken and the temperature of the blanket rose bit by bit. Qiao Mu's small hand was pressed against Xi Muqiao's chest and his fingers were retracted under the scorching heat.

As the world spun around her, she was pressed down by Xi Muqiao. The overwhelming kiss fell down along with it, and her hot lips were accompanied by a scorching aura. Everywhere it went, it was like a burning flame that ignited a fire.

The man's slightly callused fingertips caressed her waist, picking at her crotch.

The last time she was drunk, it happened when she wasn't conscious, so this was the first time Qiao Mu felt this way. His body was stiff, the man's faint smell of tobacco and mint filled her mouth.

The man's heavy breathing sounded indistinct in the night. His wet breath stirred her senses. Qiao Mu felt that she was about to drown to death, but Mubai Qiao suddenly flipped over and stared at her with a burning gaze, showing no intention of continuing.

His long fingers scratched Qiao Mu's small nose. Xi Muqiao's eyes were focused on her and his voice had a suppressed husky tone. "Seeing that your face is swollen and you have a concussion, I'll let you off."

"Fine."

Qiao Mu let out a faint sigh, his voice actually carrying a trace of disappointment, scaring her into jumping and secretly angering in her heart. Damn Qiao Mu, what's with your loss? Shouldn't you be happy?

That trace of disappointment was caught by Xi Muqiao. He slightly raised his eyebrows and leaned into her ear, still wanting to continue, "It seems that you are very disappointed that I didn't continue to work here. Should we continue?"

"No need." Qiao Mu shook his head. His left cheek accidentally scraped the edge of the blanket, causing her to gasp in pain.

"Uncle, thank you for saving me tonight, or else I'm dead for sure."

Mubai Qiao shot her a glance as her wet and hot breath hit her ear. With a hint of confusion in her voice, she said, "If you want to thank me, just give me your body as a gift one day."

Qiao Mu's face became even redder. He pushed away the man's mischievous head and put on his underwear and pajamas under the blanket with trembling hands. This damned man, he had never left that exposed incident in just three sentences.

"Abnormal!"

The man wasn't annoyed. He stroked his short black hair, raised his eyebrows, and laughed sinisterly. "Have you ever seen such a handsome pervert?"

"…"

After breakfast, the two of them had a dispute over not going to school.

Xi Muqiao insisted, "Look at your swollen head, why aren't you resting and wandering around?"

After an entire night, Qiao Mu's cheeks swelled up even more than last night. He was like a steamed bun, red and swollen with a tinge of purple. Even the food he ate made his face hurt.

She stubbornly said, "I'm not just messing around. I want to go to class. I didn't ask for a leave of absence for the teacher."

"I'll invite them for you!"

"How do you want to get a leave of absence? You brought a bunch of lackeys and slammed their weapons on the teacher's table. Are you sure Qiao Mu wants to apply for leave?"

This little bastard, his sharp tongue, was about to anger him to death.

"If you dare to leave today, I'll immediately sell you out!"

Tears welled up in her eyes. She was afraid of this, but this damned man had used this to threaten her.

"Don't cry, the medicine on your face has all been washed away. I'll treat you if you're fake."

Qiao Mu didn't know how Xi Muqiao had applied for a leave of absence. She didn't even tell him his teacher's cell number, but the teacher called him to inquire about it and even consoled him.

Qiao Mu looked at the tall figure by the window and thought to herself that this man seemed to be omnipotent. At this moment, she felt that she also had someone backing her.

After Xi Muqiao finished smoking, he took out a dark blue tie from his luggage and tied it around his neck. Then, he put on his coat. His shoes were shiny and his pants were straight.

"I'm going to work, so you should just stay on the bed. Remember to take your medicine on time, Zuo Zhen will bring you lunch at noon. If I find out that you sneaked out, I'll break your legs."

"Oh."

Qiao Mu held her chin in one hand as she stared blankly at Xi Muqiao. She really couldn't understand the current underworld. Not only were they dressed decently, they were even wearing a tie and went to work in a beautiful manner!

Xi Muqiao, the financial backer, was truly very good to him. Selling it to him was not as bad as he had imagined. On the contrary, his life was even more comfortable than before.

Qiao Mu felt that this was probably his greatest fortune after so many years of being adopted by his mother.

Seeing that Xi Muqiao was about to leave, Qiao Mu mustered her courage and blurted out.

"Uncle."

Xi Muqiao turned around. "Hm?"

Qiao Mu's face was flushed red as he stuttered as he spoke.

"You, be careful while you work. Don't foolishly charge forward, just take command."

Little Rascal's words made his heart warm. His hand gripped the doorknob, maintaining the posture of opening the door. His gaze was gentle as he looked at Qiao Mu who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa and twisting the corner of his clothes. His voice was soft.

"Alright!"
