With his back to the Ice Block door, Li Mo strained his ears but heard nothing.

Did you see the Ice Block?

Has she already taken a break?

Li Mo thought for a moment, wondering if he should add another one? There might be times when he missed Ice Block...

For example...

When you're staying in a hotel alone, you see those small advertisements with phone numbers.

They always wait until you, a single person staying in a hotel, have endured a long, lonely night, only to discover it through a crack in the door when you're about to leave the next day.

Its only purpose is to remind you.

Beauty often arrives unexpectedly, and by the time you realize it, it's already past its prime...

What should we do then?

If it were Zhong Zhenyue or anyone else in this situation, Little Li would come up with ten or eight solutions in no time.

But when it comes to oneself.

Xiao Li, the relationship coach, realized he had become a complete novice.

But he didn't know that.

Just a door away.

Ying Bing held the paper, looked at the handwriting on it, and couldn't help but purse her lips.

Therefore, the line in "Wind and Moon Cottage" was not something Li Mo wrote on impulse; the poem was already complete.

The fact that one of the lines contains the name Hua Nongying is purely coincidental.

This was originally written about him and himself.

Ying Bing lowered her eyes, folded the paper, held it in her bosom for a while, and then unscrewed the Big-Headed Doll and put it inside.

Then he pushed open the door.

"Huh? You saw the Ice Block?"

"What do you see?"

Ying Bing tilted her head, looking puzzled.

Li Mo was taken aback. He looked down and saw no Ice Block. But there was nothing on the ground.

Could it have been blown away by the wind?

He went into the room and looked around the corners, but still couldn't see it.

"Li Mo."

"Ah?"

"There seem to be mosquitoes Cloud-Stepping Tower too. Let me add a... seal for you."

Ying Bing gently closed the door and began spouting nonsense with a straight face.

"?"

Is this reasonable?

Li Mo looked up. The Cloud-Stepping Tower was so high that even birds would have a hard time flying up there. What kind of mosquitoes were so powerful?

But Ying Bing was already sitting on the chaise lounge, having taken off her boots, her fair legs stretched out horizontally, her clear eyes seemingly looking around, her red lips slightly parted but unable to express what she wanted to say.

Li Mo: "!"

I don't care if it's reasonable or not!

That makes sense!

Li Mo rushed over, picked up the Ice Block, and placed it on his lap. A cool fragrance lingered around him; it was smooth and soft. This principle was truly profound and unyielding.

Looking up, I saw a face bathed in moonlight, with a strand of hair inadvertently stuck to the corner of her mouth, so I casually brushed it away.

Ying Bing did have something to say, but a touch of warmth at the corner of her mouth made her suddenly forget what she wanted to say.

"Practice your skills... let's practice."

Ice Block now clearly realized that there was indeed a difference in physical strength between the two.

Otherwise, why would I feel it's uncomfortable?

And his body was burning hot...

"Let me hug you a little longer."

Li Mo had the expression of a virtuous gentleman.

As we all know, a gentleman can be deceived by reason, meaning that a gentleman understands rules and reason, and if you reason with him, he will definitely not be able to resist.

Little Li the Gentleman, being a gentleman, was particularly unable to withstand it.

Who could make this principle so graceful and elegant, so fluid and powerful, with such a subtle fragrance and amazing elasticity...?

"Then, just for a little while."

Ying Bing's serene gaze flickered, but she ultimately agreed.

I lost my temper with him today, so... I'll just let him be willful for a while.

The result is...

... the time it takes for an incense stick to burn is over.

... half an hour passed.

Nearly an hour has passed.

Ying Bing gradually lost count of how many times she had tried to stop herself, but the warm feeling pulled her back before she could even finish speaking.

It's like waking up on a cold winter morning, glancing at the time, and realizing you have to go to work or school today.

At first, you were determined to get ready, but the cold wind blew you back into bed, and then you thought, "Just one minute, just five minutes, just ten minutes..."

Finally, I fell asleep, completely enveloped in the warmth of my blankets.

Ying Bing's neck turned red.

She let out a soft breath and looked at Li Mo's neck.

Oh right, the seal...

"Ice Block, do you want to be sealed away?"

"?"

Seeing the gleam in his eyes, Ying Bing turned her gaze to the side and said:

"I don't need it."

Little Li the Gentleman said in a serious tone, "But there are mosquitoes on the top floor of Cloud-Stepping Tower."

"It's okay, those mosquitoes can't handle ice."

Phoenix Heavenly Empress Cold Fairy's fingertips curled up, and she herself didn't know what she was saying.

Strangely, Little Li was able to match her breasts, raising his hand from his thigh and holding up one finger:

"What if, I mean, what if, mosquitoes are willing to eat something cold?"

"I quite like shaved ice too..."

Ying Bing looked at him silently, sensing that he didn't actually want to add a seal.

Instead, I want to be that mosquito that loves to eat ice.

"Elder sister."

"..."

Ying Bing a chill run down her spine and turned her gaze to the side.

She said nothing, but her snow-white neck, flushed red, was exposed to the man's gaping maw.

Li Mo took a deep breath, as if he were doing something very solemn and sacred!

He lowered his head.

Cold Fairy's gaze faltered slightly. She didn't feel pain, only an itch, as if the sensation in her heart was spreading from her neck throughout her body.

Her fingertips gripped Li Mo's shoulder, and she unconsciously tightened her grip.

"Um?"

Li Mo raised his head, looking somewhat puzzled, and even licked his lips.

"Alright, the sealing is complete. Go back and rest."

"Um..."

"Good."

So, under the cover of night, Little Li the Gentleman reluctantly finished eating his ice cream. He hunched over, feeling extremely uncomfortable, before finally returning to his room.

It's delicious, I love it, and I want to eat it again next time.

Ying Bing lay on the chaise lounge for a while, then felt she had the strength to walk again.

The aloof and Cold Fairy returned to her bed.

What's making that noise?

Oh... it's the sound of a heartbeat and her breathing...

Ying Bing picked up the mirror from the bedside table, looked at her neck in the moonlight, and was slightly taken aback.

It got damp, but didn't leave a red mark.

These mosquitoes are strangely kind; they really love eating ice, but they just eat it without sucking it out.

"He's thinking about that kind of thing all the time."

"But I'm such an idiot..."

After calming herself down for a while, she remembered something: the cooldown period for the system rankings had ended.

We can start ranking again.

She has already wasted several days.

[Hey hey hey, it's strange that you think of me without even needing a reminder. You used to focus on getting stronger, but lately you seem to be much more proactive about rankings.]

"..."

Ying Bing sat on the edge of the bed, seemingly oblivious to the strange handwriting.

After a while, the system spoke again:

[Next, please draw a punishment from the mind of the last winner.]

What will it be this time?

Are you even a little bit excited?
