In the blink of an eye, it was Friday again, and another week had come to an end.
Lin Mian had just returned home when she received an urgent call from her mother, demanding that she return home early tomorrow morning for a blind date, or else her household registration would be moved out of the Lin family.
This undoubtedly hit Lin Mian's sore spot, and she had no way out.
She had two sore spots: her father and her household registration.
Because she had been a black household for some time.
One year, when she needed identity verification for the college entrance examination, Lin's mother only wanted her to drop out of school and get married. Lin Mian refused, and they argued a few times. As a result, Lin's mother directly tore up her household registration page in a fit of madness.
"What college do you want to take the exam for? Your brother didn't even pass. What do you have? If you don't behave, you better get out of this house early. This house doesn't need a jinx like you." Lin's father had to intervene later on, seeking help from many people and going to great lengths to have her household registration reinstated.
From that day on, Lin Mian was kicked out of the house and no longer received any living expenses.
Later, when she was admitted to university, people from the village came to congratulate her, but only Lin's mother leaned against the door frame, cracking sunflower seeds and mocking her.
"Don't think going to university is anything special. Maybe you were just lucky. The family doesn't have the money to pay your tuition..."
Lin Mian closed her eyes and then opened them again.
This time, she was going to get her household registration back and keep it by her side for safety.
She had no choice but to go back for a visit.
Early the next morning, Lin Mian packed her bags and bought a ticket to go home. As she stepped out, the door across the way opened, and a tall and well-built figure caught her eye.
When Lin Mian looked up, she met the gaze of a man taking out the trash, dressed in a simple white t-shirt and loose grey trousers. His hair was slightly messy, and he had a casual and indifferent air about him. Their eyes met, and he unabashedly stared at her.
Lin Mian instinctively lowered her eyes to avoid the chillingly naked gaze, but accidentally caught sight of the bulge in his pants. She suddenly stopped breathing, her face turning red to the roots of her ears.
"What are you looking at?" the man impatiently blurted out, "Morning wood, normal physiological reaction, haven't seen it before?"
Lin Mian: "…"
Polite pervert.
Blushing, she looked away, not wanting to see him anymore. Suddenly, he leaned in close, his face next to hers, the overpowering scent of male hormones making her heart race.
"Just blushing from this? I remember that in bed, you sneakily peeked more than once. Getting shy just from a layer of fabric in between?"
Lin Mian: "!!!"
What kind of outrageous talk was this!
After not seeing each other for a few days, how did he become so flirtatious?
Lin Mian couldn't handle this indifferent yet pervy teasing and pushed him away in a panic.
As the elevator doors closed slowly, Lin Mian's heart continued to pound wildly, as if it wanted to leap out of her chest.
The man in the hallway slightly curled his lips, a triumphant glint in his eyes, as he walked slowly to the corridor with the garbage in hand. With a flick of his long arm, he skillfully tossed the garbage bag into the bin.
Lowering his head, he glanced at the slightly swollen area, muttering to himself: "Exposed so easily? That's too weak."
Sitting on the bus, Lin Mian's mind was filled with the scene from earlier. In a daze, all she could see in her head were the man's well-defined arms and strong waist, entwined with her, holding her. She clung to him like a soft vine, letting him manipulate her.
Lin Mian covered her face in despair, her ears burning hot.
Damn it, she couldn't forget.
