How did she end up kissing someone?!

Why did she kiss someone?

And why did it feel so natural? How was that possible? What was she even thinking at the time?

Why didn’t she push him away right then and there?!

……Ah, he was sick — of course she couldn’t push him. What if she hurt him? He was already so weak.

But……

He was that weak, and yet she’d been lying on top of him kissing him for a whole hour???

Su Man couldn’t help but stomp her foot!

What had she even been doing?!

If she was being honest, she could barely remember. It should have been a sharply vivid memory, but now when she tried to recall it, she couldn’t even tell whether he had been kissing her or she had been kissing him — or perhaps both?

Did that make her someone who had taken advantage of a sick person?

Taking advantage of him while he was too feverish and weak to resist, and then just pressing herself on top of him like that… ah! She must have lost herself completely! And Lu Yuwen was such a gentle personality — he definitely would have been too embarrassed to tell her to stop! That’s why it kept going, and going, and going……

Su Man stomped her foot again!

She felt like a lecherous beast.

But……

……

……

……

It had actually felt… really, really good.

Su Man could not believe she was still savoring the memory. Was it a skill issue? She always found kissing scenes in TV dramas gross and dull.

But with Lu Yuwen it was… it was, genuinely quite nice.

Except that it was a little warm.

That was probably because he had a fever.

Alright, she truly had become a lecherous beast — doing something like that to someone who was ill. It’s not like he’d forced her, right? He was the one beneath her, and he hadn’t exerted any real strength.

Okay, okay, okay… how had this even happened? The more she tried to untangle it, the more confused she got. If he hadn’t used any force, and she hadn’t resisted, then what did that mean? They had done something that only people in a relationship would do, and on top of that he had said……

He’d said he wanted to be able to see her every single day!

“Aaaaaah!!……” Su Man covered her mouth, stifling a scream, and jumped on the spot!

“What are you doing?”

Su Ma’s voice suddenly rang out, and Su Man nearly had a heart attack!

She snapped her gaze around, and there was her mother, standing in the doorway — wearing a black silk sleeping robe and slippers, with a black face mask applied over her features!

“Mom! Why do you walk without making any sound!” Su Man shouted in complaint. “You nearly scared me to death!”

“Did I scare you to death, or did you scare me?” Su Ma said irritably. “What’s gotten into you — you’re back but you won’t come inside, and you’re out here jumping up and down? What on earth are you doing?”

Su Man: “……”

She dropped the hands covering her face, composed herself, tugged at the hem of her T-shirt, and replied, “Nothing much… I was just sitting in the car for a long time, so I’m stretching a little.”

Su Ma: “……”

Her expression seemed to say: Do you think I’m an idiot?

Su Man grinned and looped her arm through Su Ma’s, walking inside warmly, and changed the subject: “Mom, what face mask are you using? It looks pretty good……”

Su Ma didn’t take the bait and asked directly, “How is Xiao Lu doing? Didn’t you go to see him?”

“Oh… he, he has a fever. He took some medicine, and the temperature’s come down a bit.” Su Man said slowly. “I made sure to wait until he was asleep before I left, so don’t worry, he’s fine.”

Su Ma nodded. “That child is out there making his own way all by himself — it hasn’t been easy for him. When he gets sick, there’s no one to look after him.”

Hearing that, Su Man took the opportunity to speak up. “Mom, there’s something… I wanted to ask you about……”

“What is it?” Su Ma gave her a suspicious sidelong glance.

It was just a question about houses for sale — most of the residents in this villa complex knew each other, and if someone was thinking of selling, neighbors usually got wind of it before real estate agents did.

But for some reason, Su Man found it a little hard to bring up……

She hesitated and asked, “It’s just… is there anyone in our neighborhood who’s selling their house?”
