The bathroom area before the massage begins.

Grandmother's visit disrupted everyone's plans, and even Hua Yuan was sweating profusely. She had thought that Grandmother taking Luo Di to the banquet by holding hands was already the highest honor.

To my utter surprise, my Grandmother would also break the sorority's rules and visit at night.

If her Grandmother finds out that she is also here, and that she came with the intention of stealing someone else's partner, she is likely to anger her Grandmother and even be severely punished.

This year is the most important year, and it is very likely to involve personal promotion arrangements.

Hua Yuan fears nothing, except this one thing.

At this time,

The Grandmother, who had just entered the room, had already set her sights on the bathroom. With just a flick of her senses, she could easily spot the three people hiding inside.

Hua Yuan believed it was impossible for her to do anything in front of her Grandmother. If she used her ability to seal off the bathroom, it would only arouse greater suspicion.

The anxiety in her eyes slowly turned into a helpless resignation.

In a critical moment.

Isabella moved to the bathroom door, deliberately amplifying her presence to reveal herself. "Is Grandmother here? Wait a moment, I'll be right out!"

This deliberate exposure caused the Grandmother to withdraw her senses and assume that Isabella was taking a bath inside.

A white hat was tossed over, the bathroom was isolated, and no means of spying could penetrate the hat curtain; at most, only a few shadowy outlines could be seen, and the sound was kept to a minimum.

call...

Both Hua Yuan, who was on the verge of giving up, and Shia, who was curled up in the bathtub, breathed a sigh of relief.

Isabella plopped down on the floor, her nightgown slipping off.

Sweat was visibly seeping from his pores, and his calves were shaking uncontrollably; he practically had the word "nervous" written all over his face.

However, before she could recover...

Two arms suddenly wrapped around her tightly from behind, and his tongue licked along the back of her neck, finally stopping at her earlobe.

"Isabella, you've changed a bit. You've actually become quite courageous, daring to lie to your Grandmother... Well, not exactly lying, but rather a very clever way of diverting attention."

The words had barely left his mouth.

The class monitor's head was pulled by an aggressive force, turning 90 degrees to face Hua Yuan. Before the class monitor could react, lips were pressed against his.

Something resembling a flower stamen or a hand reached directly into the class monitor's brain and adhered to its surface.

The whole process lasted a full minute.

What appeared to be an intimate gesture was actually Hua Yuan verifying Isabella's identity; in her view, Isabella's behavior was somewhat unexpected.

When they separated, they were still connected by glistening, translucent threads of liquid.

Hua Yuan gently scraped her fingers across the surface of her tongue. "Hmm~ the taste is still the same. It seems you have indeed grown a lot this year. No wonder you were able to find such a good partner. I am quite envious."

Since you've helped my sister, I'll no longer try to get my hands on Mr. Di.

"Okay... okay." The class monitor bit his lip lightly.

"So, what is it about your partner that's so outstanding that he could make your Grandmother go to such lengths? You know, your Grandmother used to be very averse to men."

Just as the squad leader was about to explain the situation related to the pain.

Ah~

A sound that had been heard before the dinner party came again, this time coming from inside the bathroom through the hat curtain, demonstrating just how penetrating the sound was.

Because of the closer distance,

It was also much clearer to hear.

Even Shia, whose consciousness had been cleared and who had been curled up in the bathtub pretending to be dead, sprang up and pressed her two pure white eyeballs against the bathtub wall, trying to see what was happening outside.

Hua Yuan and Wu Wen did the same, quickly pressing their eyeballs against the bathroom door to maximize their X-ray vision.

However, due to the hat, only black and white colors and blurry outlines can be seen at most.

The outline that appeared to them was an inverted "T" shape, which led them to fill in the possible scenarios in their minds.

"Grandmother actually..."

Hua Yuan was the most excited. The scene she imagined was clearer and more accurate than anyone else's, and it was even a moving image.

As time passed, the outline remained unchanged, and the voice of the Grandmother could be heard continuously, not only without weakening with the passage of time, but also becoming more and more frequent.

One hour,

Two hours,

Three hours

Hua Yuan was completely stunned. She had been with countless people, but no one had ever lasted this long. Even with injections and medication, she couldn't withstand it, let alone with someone as high-ranking as her Grandmother.

She was so overwhelmed by her overthinking that she was almost unable to hold on, and her voice trembled as she spoke:

"Isabella, what kind of monster is this man? How come he hasn't died yet..."

The class monitor just kept shaking her head; her mind was completely blank.

Even Shia, who has absolutely no interest in relationships, was swallowing hard, lost in thought.

finally,

Four hours have passed.

The outline has changed.

The inverted T shape has been changed to two vertical stripes.

The white hat that had been covering the bathroom was returned to the Grandmother's hand. The three who had been spying all night quickly retreated and concealed their presence until they heard the sound of the door opening and closing, confirming that the Grandmother had left before finally rushing out of the bathroom.

Strangely,

The master bedroom was empty; Luo Di was nowhere to be found either.

The only thing left was a sweat stain, more than two meters long, shaped like a human, that was imprinted on the bed, almost completely soaking through the mattress.

Hua Yuan quickly brought her nose close and sniffed hard, but all she could smell was her Grandmother's scent. There was none of the pungent masculine scent she had expected, not even a hint of it.

This strange situation made Hua Yuan imagine that her Grandmother might possess a special absorption ability, and the terrifying image made her body tremble violently.

Just as the three of them had tidied themselves up and adjusted their breathing to prepare to go out and search for Luo Di's whereabouts.

Click! The door opened again.

Luo Di returned alone, looking exactly as he had a few hours earlier, wearing a mask and a coat, standing at the door watching the Three Sisters as if nothing had happened.

"Where is Grandmother!?"

"I took her back to her room to rest."

"What exactly are you all...?"

While asking the question, Hua Yuan kept glancing at the lower part of Luo Di's body.

Luo Di seemed to have prepared his answer beforehand, responding calmly. "If I had to say what I did, I'd say it was a massage, right? My Grandmother seemed to really enjoy this kind of pain-related body massage, and I happen to be quite good at it."

"Pain? Massage?"

Hua Yuan found it difficult to connect these two words together. Her acceptance of pain was average; she neither hated nor liked it.

But upon closer reflection, she realized she truly didn't know her Grandmother's real interests, hobbies, or rather, quirks.

Connecting the series of bizarre experiences tonight, recalling the blurry outlines she had seen before, their duration, and her Grandmother's cries, she was basically certain that Luo Di was telling the truth, and that she had simply misunderstood things from the beginning.

She exhaled a long breath, which made her re-evaluate the man in front of her.

"Oh, I see... Can I try it sometime? I'll skip tonight, I suddenly feel so tired, I need to go back to sleep."

Hua Yuan had never felt so tired. Four hours of mental tension and a lot of mental activity made her want to sleep.

Although she was very curious about what kind of massage skills Luo Di had, she left the current bedroom first. Although she pretended to be calm, her act of leaning against the wall was seen by others.

Neither the class monitor nor Shia had ever seen Hua Yuan in such a disheveled state.

"Isabella, I'm leaving too... It was a fun night, goodnight."

Shia was in pretty good condition, but some mixed colors had appeared in her pure white zombie eyes, indicating that she was also thinking about something.

As everyone left, the class monitor quickly closed the bedroom door, finally returning to their time together. She also had many things she wanted to ask.

But just as she turned around,

Luo Di, who seemed to be doing normally, began to stagger, and his previously sharp eyes were now completely vacant.

His body fell straight forward, and just as his entire face was about to hit the ground...

Snap!

The squad leader sprinted off at lightning speed, caught Luo Di before he collapsed, and gently placed him on the large bed beside him.

Luo Di was so exhausted that his brain had shut down. He had only put on a brave face in front of his sisters to improve his standing within the sorority and gain more control.

The process of imitating Mr. Hook and inflicting pain was not easy, let alone targeting a corner existence like Grandmother. Luo Di did not relax for four hours, and his level of exhaustion was comparable to fighting ten consecutive combat matches.

His body was soaked with sweat multiple times, only thanks to the good absorbency of his clothes.

The squad leader brought hot water and towels from the restroom.

Remove Luo Di's clothes and mask as gently as possible.

Starting with her legs and feet, I carefully washed her entire body with a towel, wiping away all the sticky sweat and the little bit of liquid that had stained Grandmother.

After cleaning him up, wrap his body completely in a blanket and position him in the best sleeping position.

He bent down and kissed Luo Di's forehead.

Whispers that can effectively help you fall asleep enter your ears:

"Thanks for your hard work."

Wu Wen did not lie down on the bed. She did not seem sleepy at all, as if she had something else on her mind.

She returned to the bathroom area alone and filled the bathtub with the coldest water.

A box of elegant women's cigarettes sat beside the bathtub.

Take off your bathrobe.

Remove the skin.

Immerse the translucent red body in it.

He lit a cigarette and stared at the ceiling.

A large amount of information is colliding in the brain, seemingly planning something.
