Endless Pampering Only For You

That should be seven years ago on a summer’s day like this. The weather had been a little hot, and their families had agreed to have fun at that lakeside resort.

On the last day, the pair of them, like all little kids, had so much fun that they couldn’t bear to leave.

They played by the lake as the sun was about to set. Somehow, they had entered the water in the middle of their fun and had started splashing water at each other. They didn’t know that they had waded in too deep until Yin Shaojie had stepped on something and fallen into the lake.

It still gave her a fright to think about this now!

They were still young kids of about nine and ten, so they were prone to getting into accidents if they weren’t careful.

There were no adults around. At that time, Mu Xiaoxiao was frightened out of her wits. In a haze, she grabbed onto a wooden stick and held it towards him.

Pulling onto the stick with all of his strength, Yin Shaojie finally landed on the safety of the shore.

He then fainted after that.

Mu Xiaoxiao was very alarmed. Remembering how she had seen artificial respiration on TV before, she had hurriedly bent down and given him the kiss of life.

When he had regained consciousness, she called the adults over.

Even though she had only been doing artificial respiration on him, their lips had still touched — that could be count as a first kiss, right?

Yin Shaojie nodded. “Yeah, I remember that.”

His inky dark eyes studied the water at his feet as he started to reminisce.

“Back then…” Mu Xiaoxiao wanted to continue but was interrupted by a sharp shriek.

“Ah! Bee! There’s a bee!”

She had thought that it was Han Qiqing at first, but when she looked over, she realized that it was Song Shijun who was screaming.

Song Shijun was pulling on Han Qiqing and hiding behind her back.

When Han Qiqing realized the bee’s presence, she got a shock as well and tried to shake his hand off.

“Why are you grabbing onto me! Don’t you know how to run?”

Thus, they dashed over to where Mu Xiaoxiao was.

Without the threat of the bee over their heads, Han Qiqing rolled her eyes at Song Shijun and quipped, “Being so frightened by a mere bee — are you really a man?”

Song Shijun’s face was pale. “Try getting stung by a bee when you’re a kid. We’ll see if you’re still not scared,” he retorted.

Han Qiqing went silent.

Once bitten, twice shy. This saying was indeed true.

Song Shijun looked at them and said anxiously, “Can we stop loitering around this place? Let’s go, let’s go. Let’s head back to the villa.”

Mu Xiaoxiao was sympathetic towards him. It must have had been a frightening experience for him to be scared by a tiny bee like that.

Even though she still wanted to play around in the stream, she decided to give it up.

“Let’s go then. What else is there to do at the villa?”

“Yeah, there is! There are many other things you can do!” Song Shijun nodded vigorously.

Because they had school the next day, they left the villa in the afternoon.

Back at the apartment.

Mu Xiaoxiao threw herself onto the sofa.

“I’m so tired… Why are my shoulders aching? If I had someone to massage them for me, it would be perfect.”

She laid down on the sofa and casted a sidelong glance at Yin Shaojie.

Yin Shaojie carried his backpack into the room.

Mu Xiaoxiao pursed her lips in annoyance.

Was this guy ignoring her deliberately?

She had been so obvious in her demands!

She waited for a while, but he didn’t come out. Mu Xiaoxiao’s displeasure had been stewing, and she couldn’t help but shout, “Yin Shaojie!”

“Yeah?” a particular demon’s voice drawled.

“Did you hear what I said? I’m tired… My shoulders are aching…” Mu Xiaoxiao complained. She was on the sofa like a lazy bug.
