The man gazed deeply into the woman's angry eyes, unhurried.
He simply raised his hand, rolled up his sleeve, and revealed the red, itchy bumps. "These things, they hurt and itch, and they look uncomfortable too."
Du Ruoxin turned her head away, not wanting to look at him at all. "Speak plainly!"
Rong Jingyang: "Help me apply the medicine until I'm healed."
Du Ruoxin's eyes darkened. Is that all? No other excessive demands?
"Also..." the man seemed to read her mind, speaking hesitantly.
Du Ruoxin drooped her face. As expected, she couldn't trust Rong Jingyang's character too much!
After waiting for a few seconds without him speaking, Du Ruoxin turned back to him. "Say it!"
Rong Jingyang smirked wickedly. "You have to come whenever I call, you can't refuse, you can't say no."
Du Ruoxin's eyelids twitched. So, if he felt itchy in the middle of the night, she'd have to rush over to apply medicine for him?
The man ignored the woman's discomfort and said faintly, "Choose one of the two."
"I'll count to three..."
Before Rong Jingyang could finish, Du Ruoxin shouted, "I'll do it, I'll apply it for you!"
As long as her good friend wasn't harmed, what was wrong with coming whenever Rong Jingyang called to apply medicine?
So easy!
Miranda: "..."
She wanted to say, "Sister Xin, don't agree to him, I'll bear the consequences of my own actions," but the thought of double the virus plus spending a night with an AIDS patient made her back down.
The words were on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn't utter them.
[How did things turn out like this?]
Rong Jingyang was dishonorable!
Rong Jingyang, just like Cristiano, was a madman! A devil!
"Don't go back on your word," the man reminded her.
Du Ruoxin glared at him impatiently. "Untie me!"
Rong Jingyang, his "evil plan successful," was in a very good mood. "No problem."
He untied her.
The more Du Ruoxin thought about it, the angrier she became, and she kicked him.
She wanted to cripple his private parts!
But no matter how unexpected her move was, it couldn't overcome the man's speed.
She did kick him, but not his vital area, and instead, her leg was caught.
Du Ruoxin: "..."
Rong Jingyang hugged her waist, a teasing look on his face. "Miss Du is so proactive in throwing herself into my arms, does it mean you still have feelings for me?"
Du Ruoxin struggled to contort her facial muscles. "Shameless!"
"Rong Jingyang, let me go!"
"Besides having more strength than me, what else do you have!!!"
She really wanted to slap this detestable man a few times, but she couldn't beat him. So frustrating!
Rong Jingyang didn't want to completely offend his wife. Seeing that she was angry and her breathing was uneven, he let go obediently. But he muttered under his breath, "You're the one who wanted to hit me, and I can't even defend myself?"
Du Ruoxin thought with a clang, what he said seemed to be right?
But, but—
She didn't want to talk to him!
Du Ruoxin ran to Miranda, who had already been untied by Mu Li.
"Sister Xin," Miranda pulled Du Ruoxin, her face full of self-reproach.
She felt like she had dragged her down.
Du Ruoxin shook her head. "It's good that you're alright." The two linked arms. "You should go and get busy. If you don't leave soon, the outside will be in an uproar."
Miranda felt distressed. "But..."
Du Ruoxin patted her. "Don't overthink it, focus on your work."
Seeing the two about to disappear through the doorway, Rong Jingyang called out, "Du Ruoxin, I'm itchy!"
Miranda: "—"
Du Ruoxin: "—"
Why don't you just itch to death!
She hasn't even left yet, and he's already causing trouble.
Annoying!
Miranda tightly grabbed Du Ruoxin, shaking her head silently. "I..."
Du Ruoxin pushed her friend away. "It's fine, you go back to filming quickly, don't delay the progress."
Immediately, she walked into the room as if facing death.
Mu Li and Lin Xuanyao also came out, and even thoughtfully closed the door.
Miranda: "..."
Standing stunned at the doorway, she vaguely heard Rong Jingyang's voice from inside:
"Do you want to take off your clothes?"
"..."
"All of them? Or half?"
