Qiao Xi was initially intrigued by the small leaf buds on Lu Huo’s head before reaching out to touch them.
She didn’t expect the tender sprout to be held in her palm, and she didn’t dare to exert any force because the small leaf sprout was soft and adorable.
The tips of the two leaves trembled in her palm before disappearing.
Qiao Xi was about to feel it properly when she heard Lu Huo ask her.
She retracted her hand, only to discover that Lu Huo’s cold and pale face had flushed, and the tips of his ears under his short hair had turned red.
His dark eyes were wet, and he glared at her, “What did you just do to me?”
Lu Huo clenched his hands tightly on both sides of the wheelchair, the veins on the back of his hands were visible, and the trembling was too strong for a moment, almost drowning him, and he almost lost control.
Lu Huo’s eyes were wide with confusion as he stared at her.
Qiao Xi suddenly realized that Lu Huo might not have noticed the small leaf buds that had appeared on his head.
His cold face was flushed, and there was an indescribable allure. She had just held the small leaf bud on top of his head by accident. Why is he having such a strong reaction?
Qiao Xi’s eyes shone brightly, concealing a wicked mind.
Qiao Xi put on her best acting, shook her head, and said, “I didn’t do anything.”
Lu Huo frowned and looked at her, but he couldn’t see anything.
“Lu Huo, your face is so red,” Qiao Xi blinked, her eyes wide with confusion. What’s the matter with you? “Did you feel uncomfortable?”
Lu Huo became irritated and turned away, saying, “I’m fine.”
“Are you still interested in having breakfast with me?”
The next thing Qiao Xi knew, he heard Lu Huo’s low voice, gnashing his teeth, “No!
The corners of Qiao Xi’s lips curled up, and she discovered that it was fun to tease Lu Huo.
Qiao Xi ate slowly at breakfast, she had no chance to touch Lu Huo, and her energy absorption rate was also slow. Her energy from yesterday has been depleted, and she now has only 0.3 percent.

“Where is the ointment from yesterday, Lu Huo? I’ll help you in applying it.” Qiao Xi looked for any opportunity to touch him.
“No, you are free to leave.” Lu Huo swung his wheelchair around to open the door beside him.
Qiao Xi followed him and discovered a small study here, which was not very large. The large bookshelves took up the majority of the study space. The desk was near the window, and the lighting was excellent.
Lu Huo flipped through the book after turning the wheelchair to the desk, ignoring Qiao Xi.
Because there were no chairs in the study, Qiao Xi went outside and brought in a small chair.
When she noticed that Lu Huo had raised his eyes to look at her, she raised her brows and said, “I will accompany you.”
Qiao Xi did her best to move the chair to Lu Huo’s side, then sat obediently while watching the energy bar on the back of her hand lit up.
Lu Huo ignored her and went back to reading. He assumed that if she became bored, she would leave on her own.
Qiao Xi is completely bored. She prefers to stay in bed. She awoke early today and is now exhausted. She yawned quietly and covered her mouth, the corners of her eyes a little red.
She cast a glance at Lu Huo, then her gaze fell to the white paper on the desk, and she gently touched Lu Huo’s hand.
Lu Huo met her gaze with his dark eyes.
“Could you lend me some blank paper?”
“And a pen.” She’d fall asleep if she didn’t find something to do and just sat quietly like this.
“Don’t bother me,” Lu Yu said flatly. “Leave when you get bored,” he said as if he could see right through her.
Qiao Xi shook her head, refusing to leave.
Lu Huo carried on reading. Qiao Xi took the blank paper and pen, then took a book from the bookshelf and placed it on her lap.
Even though she is slim, sitting in a small chair makes her appear pitiful.

She looked up at Lu Huo as she lightly nibbled her pen.
The sunlight streamed in through the glass window, leaving a golden halo on the top of his hair and softening the profile of his face.
The young man is stunning.
Qiao Xi was captivated by the sight and slowly drew with the tip of her pen on the white paper.
The original owner was a first-year art student, and it was now time for military training. Due to her health, she was unable to attend school for the time being. Qiao Xi had learned to draw for a few years before transmigrating, which coincided with the original owner’s interests.
The only sound in the small study room was the rustle of Qiao Xi’s pen.
After an unknown amount of time, Qiao Xi put down her pen and smiled at the young man in the drawing.
Qiao Xi felt sleepy again after finishing the drawing. She couldn’t stop herself. She shifted forward in her chair, sat on the side of the desk, and closed her eyes to sleep.
In any case, she only needs to wait until she can absorb Lu Huo’s gold energy within one meter.
Lu Huo raised his head and noticed that Qiao Xi had already fallen asleep. Her long black hair covered her side face, revealing only the tip of her white nose and a small pale pink mouth as she turned her head sideways.
He averted his gaze and landed on the white paper, the corner of the paper pressed against her elbow.
He pulled out gently.
Lu Huo’s face flushed as soon as he saw the drawing paper.
The young man was sitting by the window on the white paper. His head was slightly raised, his lips were slightly open, his eyes were slightly narrowed, and his eyes were filled with lust. His upper body was covered by a white shirt that was ripped open, and his lower abdomen was well defined. ……
Lu Huo pressed his hand against the paper, causing it to wrinkle all at once.
He looked at Qiao Xi, who was sleeping; she had the audacity to draw him!

Not sure how long it took, but when Qiao Xi woke up, her arm was numb.
She raised her head, the light in her eyes gradually became clearer, and the gold energy on the back of her hand transformed into 2.3 percent. Did she sleep for two hours?
Qiao Xi noticed Lu Huo was still reading, and her drawing had vanished.
“Can you tell me if I’m good at drawing?” Qiao Xi rested her hands on the tabletop, her delicate chin resting on the backs of her hands, and turned to face Lu Huo.
Her brows were arched, and her eyes were full of mischievous teasing.
The book was flipped by Lu Huo’s hand.
“I didn’t see your body clearly yesterday,” the girl said in a soft and pleasant voice. If you give me the chance, I can help you in drawing the human body.”
Qiao Xi lied to him. She had a keen eye and a good memory the day before. She can remember what he looked like yesterday even with her eyes closed.
“Did you hide my drawing?” Qiao Xi enquired.
Lu Huo’s fingers stiffened as he held the book, and the coldness on his face was repulsed. “I tore it up!” He exclaimed, embarrassed and irritated.
Why should he keep such a drawing?
“Master, Lu Huo has torn up your drawing, don’t be angry, absorb all his golden energy,” Bao Fu said of Qiao Xi.
“I’m not angry,” Qiao Xi says. “I’m sure I could draw a hundred drawings like that. Just rip them up.”
In any case, she draws to pass the time.
Lu Huo expected Qiao Xi to flee in rage, but the other party simply lowered her eyes silently and did not speak.
He pursed his lips and turned away from her pitiful appearance.
Qiao Xi remained by Lu Huo’s side until late in the afternoon. She did not continue to be a demon, but she was well-behaved. She was about to leave as the sun was setting when she left satisfied.

1% of the energy can be stored for three hours. She stayed for nine hours today, absorbing 9% of the energy, and she can last for 27 hours.
Her only regret is that she didn’t have the opportunity to touch Lu Huo today, as she would have been able to absorb more golden energy.
Qiao Xi noticed the maid from earlier in the morning standing at the door as she walked out of the small yard.
“Qiao… Have a safe trip, Miss Qiao.” The maid had a great attitude. She quietly inquired, knowing that the lovely lady in front of her was the eldest daughter of the Qiao family.
“I won’t tell Old Man Lu about what happened this morning,” Qiao Xi said, pausing.
The servant has been worried about this issue and has been restless all day. She couldn’t help but be overjoyed and hurriedly flattered now that she’d heard the girl’s words. “Thank you very much, Miss Qiao; you are very beautiful and kind.”
“If I find you stealing Lu Huo’s meals again, I don’t need the Lu family to take action; I will take care of you myself,” Qiao Xi smiled.
The servant was taken aback and stared at Qiao Xi.
Qiao Xi smirked. “The Lu family may dismiss only your job, but I’m not like that. You will not only lose your job, but you will also implicate your family. Don’t let petty greed cause you to lose your life.”
The girl in front of her was delicate and lovely, and her voice was soft and pleasant, but she said something that made her shiver. The servant was taken aback. Qiao Xi was not a simple mind flower. She was a devilish little thing.
“I’m going to leave first.” “You can tell Lu Huo about this,” Qiao Xi said cutely.
She is always doing good deeds and leaving a name.
Furthermore, she didn’t want to pass up the chance to gain Lu Huo’s favor.
