Su Xianyu knew that once the author returned and could modify the settings, the die - hard fans of Ruan Sisi would surely try to trip her up.
However, she truly didn't expect that this accident would come so quickly and be so vicious.
Su Xianyu leaned against the bathroom wall. The coolness of the tiles was creeping up her spine.
Just a minute ago, when she reached out for the bath towel, the seemingly normal floor suddenly made her slip.
Fortunately, she was on guard, but her elbow still hit the shelf, leaving a red mark.
Su Xianyu stared blankly at her arm. Was it just an accident? No!
She had a vague premonition in her heart. After wrapping herself in a bathrobe, she cracked open the door a bit and called out.
"Ah!"
"What's wrong?"
Feng Lin, who had been keeping an eye on the bathroom outside, yanked the door open. "I'm coming in, Xiaoyu."
Seeing Su Xianyu covering her arm with her hand, a flash of pain crossed his eyes. "Did you hit it? I'll call the doctor."
"Don't. I just accidentally bumped into it." She reached out to hold Feng Lin back, but her eyes were fixed on the bullet comments above his head.
[I even melted the gold pendant my mom gave me and exchanged it for a x200 reward to make this Su Xianyu fall. Is this all it amounts to?]
[Hahaha, sis, you're awesome! That fall must have hurt like hell! It's a pity it didn't hit a vital spot.]
[I'm going to add more. A x100 reward. Let Aunt Liu change the living - room carpet to a velvet one with less friction. When Su Xianyu gets up and steps on the water, she'll slip and hit the coffee table just right!]
[Yeah, this plan sounds good. With such a hard table corner, she'll definitely lose the baby.]
[You guys are so heartless! Even if you hate a character, the baby is innocent. How could you do this?]
[Where did this sanctimonious person upstairs come from? It's my money. I can spend it however I like!]
[Poor Sister Xiaoyu. I'll protect you. A x30 reward...]
Sure enough, these people were up to no good!
Su Xianyu gently withdrew her arm and pushed Feng Lin, who wanted to apply medicine to her, into the bathroom.
"I'm really okay. This red mark will fade soon. You go take a shower first."
"Okay. If you feel uncomfortable, be sure to tell me."
"Got it~"
Su Xianyu nodded. She had to think carefully about what to do next.
Still worried about her arm, before long, there was a "click" sound as the bathroom door was pushed open.
Su Xianyu almost instinctively looked up, her eyes locking onto Feng Lin.
The man was drying his hair with a towel. The collar of his loose bathrobe was open, revealing his firm chest.
Su Xianyu suddenly threw down the magazine and ran over bare - footed. Like a frightened cat, she pounced into his arms, her arms tightly wrapped around his waist.
"Slow down!"
Feng Lin staggered half a step from her impact, then firmly supported her buttocks. The warmth of his palm seeped through her thin nightgown. "Scared you?"
Su Xianyu buried her face in his neck. Her nose rubbed against his skin with the fragrance of shower gel, and her voice was muffled. "I just want to hug you."
For safety's sake, she decided to stick with Feng Lin every day for the next period of time and carefully observe the malicious motives in the bullet comments.
Although the baby would eventually "miscarry", it definitely wouldn't be now!
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw that the bullet comments were in an uproar.
[Why did she suddenly jump into his arms? Can't she walk on her own? She has to be held!]
[The velvet carpet downstairs has just been laid, and the edge is still wet. Even if she's nestled in Feng Lin's arms, if she slips on the floor, she'll definitely be thrown out.]
[Hurry! Get her off! I can't wait to see it...]
Feng Lin let out a low laugh and reached out to ruffle her hair. "Why are you so cute today?"
"What do you mean! Are you saying I wasn't cute before?"
"Of course not!" Feng Lin quickly denied it and wracked his brains for words. "It's just that you weren't so... clingy before."
"Then, do you like it?"
Feng Lin didn't answer, but his ears quietly turned red. He gently kissed her forehead.
"I want to take a walk downstairs." Su Xianyu pretended to get off him but was held down.
Feng Lin easily carried her downstairs. Looking at the newly replaced carpet on the first floor, he frowned slightly.
Before Su Xianyu could remind him, she clearly felt Feng Lin slow down his steps and avoid the edge of the newly replaced velvet carpet - the slipperiest part according to the bullet comments.
The two nestled on the sofa. Su Xianyu was like a koala hanging on him, her legs wrapped around his waist and her hands firmly clutching the belt of his bathrobe.
Feng Lin helplessly picked up the medical journal on the table and tried to turn the page, but found he didn't have a free hand.
"Loosen up a bit, okay?"
He pinched her cheek. His fingertips touched her slightly hot earlobe. "If you hold on any tighter, I'll be out of breath."
"No," Su Xianyu buried her face deeper and deliberately rubbed her nose against his Adam's apple. "I won't let go."
She quietly looked up and glanced at the bullet comments above.
[Aaah! How could this happen? My reward is all for nothing!]
[This scheming bitch acts like she can't take care of herself. She never used to be like this. It must be on purpose!]
[What's wrong with a couple showing affection? Is the person upstairs a single dog feeling jealous?]
[A x50 reward. Let Uncle Li pretend to deliver fruits and deliberately bump into Su Xianyu to knock her out of Feng Lin's arms!]
Sure enough, there were footsteps at the door. Uncle Li came over with a fruit plate in his hand. His eyes were evasive, but his steps veered towards the sofa.
Su Xianyu suddenly looked up and pecked Feng Lin on the lips.
This sudden kiss made Feng Lin pause for a moment. He instinctively tightened his arms and held her even closer.
Uncle Li's steps froze half a meter away. The fruit plate in his hand swayed, and finally he could only awkwardly put it on the side cabinet.
Su Xianyu asked in confusion, "Uncle Li, why are you here? Where's Aunt Liu?"
"Ah? I clearly remember that I was trimming the lawn just now. How did I end up here delivering fruits in a daze?"
Uncle Li's eyes were a bit dazed for a moment. He shook his head. "Maybe she gave it to me just now. I must be getting old. My memory is not good now."
Saying that, he went out to tend to the flowers and plants.
[!! She dodged it again! What kind of luck is this!]
[Good job, Sister Xiaoyu. This kiss came at just the right time, hahaha.]
[My reward...]
Feng Lin clearly enjoyed it. He lowered his head and deepened the kiss. He didn't let go until Su Xianyu was out of breath.
He rested his forehead against hers, with a smile in his eyes. "What's going on today?"
"Before, I had to make you blush just to get you to hug me. Now you're like a little piece of milk candy sticking to me."
Su Xianyu licked her hot lips and deliberately blinked her wet eyes at him. "Is that not okay? Now that I'm carrying your baby, isn't it natural for me to be clingy?"
"Of course it's okay." Feng Lin pinched her chin, with a hint of indulgence in his tone that he didn't even notice. "It'd be better if you were clingy for a lifetime."
Su Xianyu felt a warmth in her heart and snuggled deeper into his arms.
She had thought that after so many failures, the bullet - commenters would give up, but she didn't expect that there would be times when she and Feng Lin had to be separated...
