Chapter 37 - Chapter 37

Lu Yanzhou knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no response. 

Concerned about Shi Liao Liao's condition after seeing her sound asleep yesterday, he pushed the door open.

"Shi—"

A fair and delicate back came into view. 

The young servant was wearing a thin undershirt, exposing a large portion of her back, with her back turned to Lu Yanzhou.

"Sorry..."

Lu Yanzhou didn't know why he averted his gaze. 

Perhaps he was stirred by the tender back and slender waist. 

When he realized it, he had already closed the door and was standing outside.

Inside the room, Shi Liao Liao: "?"

What happened?

"[Just now, did Lu Yanzhou come in???]"

Maru, playing dead on the ground, suddenly jumped up: "[Yes, yes! Lu Yanzhou suddenly appeared just now!!!]"

Looking down at her undershirt, Shi Liao Liao sincerely thanked herself for being a girl with a small chest. 

Otherwise, if it were any bigger, it would have given everything away from the back.

"Young Master, I'll take a quick shower."

Uncertain if Lu Yanzhou was still there, Shi Liao Liao called out and headed towards the bathroom.

From now on, she would only undress in the bathroom. 

Damn, it was too risky.

After getting ready and leaving, Shi Liao Liao didn't see Lu Yanzhou at the door or downstairs.

Glancing at the time, she was glad it was the weekend and she didn't have to go to class. 

She tied on an apron and prepared to do something.

"No need to cook, let's eat out."

Shi Liao Liao turned her head.

Lu Yanzhou was dressed in light casual clothes, with semi-dry hair hanging down, looking as usual.

It was as if the cold and silent Lu Yanzhou from a few days ago was just an illusion of Shi Liao Liao's.

"[The sun has risen in the west, Yanzhou is talking.]" Maru resisted the urge to raise an eyebrow and took off her apron.

"Young Master, did you bring me back yesterday?"

When she asked Maru while taking a shower earlier, the little hamster didn't say anything and just let her ask Lu Yanzhou herself, making Shilele even more curious about what happened last night.

Lu Yanzhou's fingers, hanging by his side, curled slightly, but he lazily sat at the bar, absentmindedly playing with the flowers in the vase, his tea-brown eyes staring fixedly at the person in front of him.

"You don't remember."

His tone was casual, but Shi Liao Liao keenly sensed a hint of frustration.

[Judging by his expression, could it be—]

She even showed a hint of disbelief on her face.

[I wet myself and dirtied you!?]

[Could it be it's not on your body...]

[On your head!?]

Apart from this, Shi Liao Liao couldn't think of anything more serious.

She glanced slyly at Lu Yanzhou's head.

Early in the morning, did I see her just now and recall yesterday's miserable situation, feeling nauseous, and unable to resist, went for another shower?

Maru: "I said it before, Shi Liao Liao's brain is just a vulgar cesspool. Can't think of anything else except for that little thing in her pants."

Lu Yanzhou: "..."

Thinking of the servant last night, boneless and limp, clinging to him and biting with soft lips, Lu Yanzhou felt a heaviness in his chest, but it didn't show on his face. 

Instead, the curve of his lips deepened.

"Last night, you were drugged, acting drunk, and randomly biting me."

As he spoke, as if afraid Shi Liao Liao would say something absurd, he intentionally or unintentionally wiped the corner of his mouth where there was a wound.

Shi Liao Liao was completely stunned.

[What!? I was biting your butt last night!?]

Lu Yanzhou: "..."

Was there any ambiguity in his words?

"Young Master, did you... press me anywhere?"

Shi Liao Liao poured him a glass of warm water, thinking that it was too cold these days and easy to get angry. 

Look at the corners of the young master's mouth, they're cracked.

The curve of Lu Yanzhou's lips bent down.

"Press?"

"You were as difficult to press as a pig on New Year's."

Shi Liao Liao: "..."

Lu Yanzhou was not pleased.

He was even too lazy to conceal this emotion, as shown by moving the small flower Shi Liao Liao gave him from the best-lit spot to a dark corner.

Shi Liao Liao: "..."

[Noble? Gentleman? Young Master??]

Where did this childish ghost come from!?

Why did he suddenly get angry??

Before Shi Liao Liao could do anything, the doctor came to give her an injection.

It wasn't the one who treated her leg last time, but a doctor she hadn't seen before.

"You look much better now. Not going to pull on someone's belt for food, are you?"

The doctor greeted Shi Liao Liao with a smile.

Shi Liao Liao: ??

Wait, is that normal to say?

"Doctor, I don't remember what happened yesterday."

"Can you tell me what drug I was given?"

Maintaining a blank expression, Shi Liao Liao asked while sitting in the chair.

On the other side, Lu Yanzhou was focused on trimming the bamboo with scissors, but Shi Liao Liao noticed that he seemed to have the wrong pair of scissors, not his usual custom pruning shears.

"A drug that releases the most primal desires in people."

The doctor said mysteriously.

Shi Liao Liao was shocked.

"What!? My biggest desire is to take off Lu Yanzhou's pants for food!?"

She couldn't believe it.

"If it was asking Lu Yanzhou for money or petting his dog, I might believe it."

Lu Yanzhou's scissors snapped, thinking you really understand yourself.

He did everything without exception.

After listening to the doctor's advice, Shi Liao Liao was still in a daze.

"Young Master... the wound on the corner of your mouth, could it be from me biting?"

She stood behind Lu Yanzhou, cautiously speaking.

Setting down the scissors, Lu Yanzhou suddenly turned around.

Tall and facing the young servant, he almost enveloped her entirely.

Lu Yanzhou smiled gently, his tea-brown eyes full of tolerance.

"Dog's bite."

Shi Liao Liao: "..."

[So that's what you think, Yanzhou.]

"Sorry, Young Master, I don't remember anything."

Lu Yanzhou lowered his gaze to her lips.

"The doctor said that the drug can evoke the most primal desires."

In other words, your deepest desire behind my back is to kiss me.

Shi Liao Liao felt like dying.

"Young Master, the doctor also said that the drug has expired and is ineffective."

The words "ineffective" seemed to act as some kind of trigger.

Lu Yanzhou restrained his smile, his chin lifting slightly, and a hint of coldness pursed his thin lips. "Ineffective?"

After boldly kissing his employer, the audacious young servant now claimed not to remember anything, so nothing was effective.

Then Shi Liao Liao realized that her young master was angry again.

Specifically—

The small flower that had been moved to a dark corner was now locked in the first-floor restroom.

Shi Liao Liao: "..."
