Zhan Haoze walked into the room and sat down in front of the sofa. His relaxed expression made Shi Mengwan feel a little unhappy as if this place was his home.

Didn’t he leave? Why did he come back since he left?

Although she was unhappy, she was looking forward to it. Did Zhan Haoze remember the past? Or..

She pursed her lips and took a few steps forward to stand beside the coffee table. She didn’t sit down, but just stood there and looked at him.

Zhan Haoze was tall. Even if he was sitting, he wasn’t much shorter than, Shi Mengwan, who was standing. The two of them looked at each other.

“You –” Not letting herself show even a hint of happiness, Shi Mengwan tried her best to control her emotions.

In fact, compared to Zhan Haoze disappearing without a trace, his appearance now gave her some comfort.

“What’s the matter?”

Shi Mengwan’s tone sounded a little cold, and Zhan Haoze narrowed his eyes slightly. She must have just gotten up, and her hair was a little messy.

She was wearing a black tracksuit, and underneath it was a set of pink pajamas. The bizarre outfit coordination gave her a laid-back vibe.

The large V-neck of the pajamas made him see her snow-white collar at first glance. There were still purplish-red hickeys on it.

He could easily remember how he left a mark on her yesterday. The memory of last night made Zhan Haoze a little stiff.

His face looked a little solemn because of his tensed up stomach. His gaze returned to Shi Mengwan’s face, and he took out a box from his pocket.

He put it on the coffee table and pushed it forward.

“Eat it.”

Shi Mengwan didn’t see what it was at first, but when she saw it clearly, her facial expression suddenly changed.

On the coffee table, the word “levonorgestrel” written on the box deeply stimulated Shi Mengwan’s nerves.

“Zhan Haoze –”

She stood there with a cold sensation in her hands and feet. Yesterday, they were sleeping together, but today, he gave her this.

“I should be thanking you for your thoughtfulness, right?”

Last night was just an accident. She didn’t have time to recover from the fact that she had s*x with Zhan Haoze.

But his actions today were like a basin of cold water.

She really didn’t think about children. It was too far away for her. Moreover, she was probably just an irrelevant passerby to Zhan Haoze now.

He lost his senses last night. He treated her as an antidote.

No matter which one it was, she really didn’t think about children. She even forgot to take protective measures.

Zhan Haoze didn’t say anything. Shi Mengwan stood there. She felt that her hands and feet had gradually regained some warmth. She took a step forward and picked up the box of medicine.

“Sorry to trouble you. I’ll take the medicine. I’ll eat it later. You can leave now.”

Zhan Haoze didn’t move, and Shi Mengwan didn’t want to tangle with him any longer.

Yesterday was a dream come true. She missed her Dear Brother and finally had an interaction with him, Even if such a connection was just a one-sided dream for her.

Today, Zhan Haoze let her know that if this was a dream, it could only be a nightmare.

She couldn’t tolerate it, she couldn’t let it go, and she couldn’t accept that her Dear Brother, whom she missed so much, had become like this.

“Mr. Zhan, please see yourself out.”

Zhan Haoze looked at her face, as if he didn’t understand what she was angry about.

He stood up and walked in front of her. His gaze fell on the box in her hand.

“Are you angry?”

Shi Mengwan stood there without moving. Her expression appeared a little stubborn.

She was very beautiful, and had a glamorous sort of beauty that her current stubborn expression complemented. Her red lips were slightly parted, and the expression in her eyes was that of refusal to give in. Her gaze had a formidable aura.

Zhan Haoze turned his face slightly, and his body involuntarily took half a step forward. He stared at the proud expression on her face. “Didn’t I say to take medicine?”

“…”Shi Mengwan suddenly looked at him. For a moment, the expression in her eyes was indescribably ambivalent.

She gritted her teeth, clenched her hands that hung by her side into fists, glared at Zhan Haoze, and quickly turned around to go to the kitchen.

She came out of the kitchen with a cup of water in her hand. She opened the medicine in front of Zhan Haoze.

She took out a pill and was about to put it in her mouth when Zhan Haoze suddenly grabbed her hand.

Shi Mengwan’s hand stopped in mid-air. She looked at Zhan Haoze with mockery and bewilderment.

“Mr. Zhan, what are you doing?”

Zhan Haoze slowly took the pill from her hand. He leaned over and looked at Shi Mengwan’s face. He put the pill and the cup of water back on the coffee table.

“Mr. Zhan, you –”

“Take this pill within 72 hours and it will still have an effect.”

Then?

Zhan Haoze pulled Shi Mengwan’s body into his arms. “Since that’s the case, then don’t waste this time.”

Shi Mengwan quickly understood what he meant.

He carried her in his arms and walked towards the room. Shi Mengwan’s expression changed when she realized what he wanted to do.

“Zhan Haoze, are you crazy?”

He didn’t love her. Yesterday was an accident. He still wanted to continue today?

“Zhan Haoze, put me down.” The distance from the living room to the room was too short. Shi Mengwan felt that it was only a few seconds before Zhan Haoze placed her on the bed.

The moment her body touched the bed, she quickly bounced up and wanted to leave Zhan Haoze’s body.

However, she was once again pressed down by Zhan Haoze. When she got up, he restrained her hands. At the same time, he kissed her lips.

“Wu wu.”

Shi Mengwan couldn’t say the rest of her words. Her body still felt the sensation that he had given her yesterday.

Her waist was sore and her legs were weak. She was no match for him at all.

Her jacket was taken off and thrown on the ground. The thin pajamas on her were no obstacle to Zhan Haoze. He easily tore the pajamas into pieces.

Appearing in front of him without a shred of cover, Shi Mengwan was like a peeled egg.

And this greatly aroused Zhan Haoze. He could see the marks on her body more clearly.

Her skin was very good, while her body was very tender and very fair. The more pale her skin was, the more obvious the unfaded marks became.

Those marks were left behind by him.

“Zhan Haoze.” Shi Mengwan didn’t want to continue with him. She struggled to get up, but he easily suppressed her with one hand.

Not giving her a chance to make a sound and not giving her a chance to resist, he kissed her lips again.

Everything had just begun.

… ..

Shi Mengwan washed her clothes and tidied up Qiao Ze’s tiny two rooms.

Finally, she went to the kitchen and took a look at the things in the kitchen. Yes, there was an electric rice cooker, a pot, and even a pressure cooker.

The pots, pans, bowls, and pans were all complete, including rice, firewood, oil, and salt.

Shi Mengwan tidied up the kitchen, came out of the kitchen, and went to look for Qiao Ze.

“Dear Brother? Huh –”

Unexpectedly, she saw Qiao Ze changing his clothes. She grunted and quickly turned around.

The young man’s shirt was covered in blood. He had no choice in the small clinic just now, but now that he came out, he naturally had to change. He still had to go out at night.

The young man’s body was slim and there was actually nothing to look at. However, Shi Mengwan was still a little girl, so naturally she was embarrassed.

“What the are you screaming about?”

Qiao Ze impatiently buttoned two buttons on his shirt and walked in front of Shi Mengwan. “Haven’t you seen it before?”

It wasn’t that she hadn’t seen it before. When she was at home, her father and a few uncles would always be shirtless, but those people were her family.

As for Qiao Ze..

“Why did you call me?”

Shi Mengwan realized that he had already put on his clothes, so she mustered the courage to look up at him.

The young man had recovered quite well. Yesterday, he was still bruised and swollen, but today, his injuries had recovered a lot. She pursed her lips and told him about her discovery.

“I just found out that there’s rice for cooking in the kitchen. Look, it’s not healthy for you to eat outside. Why don’t we buy some vegetables and cook at home?”

Of course, Qiao Ze knew that there was rice and oil at home, but the problem was, “You know how to cook?”

“I do.”

She was the eldest daughter in the family. When her mother was pregnant, she was the one who helped her with the work. Every day, when she came home from school, she would cook for her parents.

The teenager glanced at Shi Mengwan and suddenly sneered, “Buy groceries? Where would we get the money?”

“Didn’t I –” Shi Mengwan’s words were interrupted by the teenager.

“You mean your tens of yuan? I just paid the medical fees with them.”

Shi Mengwan exclaimed in astonishment. She didn’t remember seeing the teenager pay, but if he said he paid, then he paid.

At this moment, the teenager suddenly approached Shi Mengwan. His face had an evil smile. “Why don’t I sell you? Then I’ll have money to buy groceries.”

Shi Mengwan was startled by his sudden approach, but she shook her head firmly.

“You won’t sell me.”

“You’re not me. How do you know I won’t?”

“I know anyway. You just won’t.” Shi Mengwan lowered her head after saying this. She wasn’t in the mood to argue with Qiao Ze now.

“If there’s no vegetables, then there’s no vegetables. Then let’s eat plain rice. I’ll go make it.”

The money paid for the medical fees, but there was no money to buy vegetables, so they could only eat plain rice.

Shi Mengwan entered the kitchen, but she began to feel conflicted again. Dear Brother still had injuries on his body, so he should eat better, but in this situation, they couldn’t even afford to eat vegetables anymore. How could she possibly replenish Dear Brother’s nutrition?

Perhaps, she should think of a way to earn money?

Shi Mengwan started to lose herself in thought as she washed the rice. What could she do?

She was only 12 years old. She definitely wouldn’t be able to find a job. Perhaps, she could start collecting trash tomorrow?

But it wasn’t good. She wasn’t familiar with this place yet. These small alleys were full of twists and turns. It would take a awhile before she learned her way around it.

How about she tell her Dear Brother to bring her along?

If he wasn’t willing, she would think of another way.

She washed the rice, put it in the rice cooker, measured the water, and plugged in the electricity.

When the rice was ready, Shi Mengwan leaned on the kitchen counter in a daze.

In the past, her parents would occasionally give her pocket money at home. At that time, she even felt that she didn’t have any place to use money.

If she had known earlier, she would have taken more money when she ran away from home.

She heard the sound of the door closing and came out of the kitchen. She realized that Qiao Ze had returned at some point in time. He was carrying two bags in his hands.

“You, when did you go out?”
