Chapter 5: 5.第5章 节操碎一地，捡吗？【5】

Zhu Jie immediately clutched the corner of the quilt, staring at Ji Yi in shock. "Men and women should not touch each other! Haven't you heard of that?"

Zhu Jie watched as that guy Ji Yi sprawled casually right next to her. Seeing her awkward expression, he instead wore a look of utter confusion.

"Y-You... what do you want to do?" Zhu Jie stuttered, her eyes widening until they were bigger than copper bells, practically bulging out of her sockets.

"Sleeping, of course!" Ji Yi said matter-of-factly. "Didn't get any dinner, so naturally I have to hit the sack early to conserve energy. Any problem with that?"

But unexpectedly, Zhu Jie clung to the quilt corner with a death grip; he pulled, but couldn't budge it. Ji Yi's face darkened again. This guy's freakish strength was really something—he'd actually managed to tackle him to the ground.

Thinking back to the embarrassment in the snow, Ji Yi wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. His pants had been pulled down by this person. Thank goodness this guy hadn't intended to *do anything*, otherwise his... *that*... would have been in real danger!

Ji Yi secretly exerted force. *Rip*—he nearly tore the quilt in two. Luckily, Zhu Jie let go in the nick of time. Ji Yi raised an eyebrow at her. Seeing her timid look, he couldn't bring himself to get angry. This person was really weird—a grown man putting on such a pitiful, helpless expression!

Actually, "timid" wasn't quite right for Zhu Jie. She was just a bit scared. How could this person have such immense strength? Just now, she had wanted to use her internal energy to hold the quilt tight, but to her shock, she realized if she really did hold on for dear life, the two of them would likely have shredded the quilt between them!

She hadn't seen Ji Yi chop down trees with his bare hands yet; otherwise, she would have been even more astonished by his strength.

"There's nowhere else in the house," Ji Yi explained simply.

Zhu Jie immediately caught on. Looking at the bare walls and utter emptiness, this definitely fell into the destitute category. Think about it! For a bite of meat, they'd even dare eat people—how poor do you have to be for that?

And even if there were other rooms, Zhu Jie felt that sharp-tongued old woman wouldn't let this brat stay in them. She looked like she wouldn't be happy until she forced this brat to kill her with his own hands.

"But..." Zhu Jie tried to remind him in a tiny voice, "We really can't sleep together..."

Too bad Ji Yi had already lain down fully clothed. Zhu Jie didn't even have the right to protest! *Sob sob*, this person is too much!

Zhu Jie sat on the bed, staring blankly at the man's back facing her. Was this the first time she'd slept with a man? Had it happened in kindergarten? Forget it, things from back then don't count!

But this house was truly terrible. Even ancient houses with poor insulation weren't this drafty on all four sides! Zhu Jie cursed inwardly. Sitting against the wall like this, her back froze stiff in no time!

After hesitating a moment, she decided to lie down. But the moment she did, Ji Yi scooted right over. Back to back, pressed tight together. Zhu Jie could even feel the distinct, scorching heat radiating from the man's body. Her face flushed red involuntarily.

No, this won't do! Zhu Jie steeled herself internally. Fine! Not repaying a kindness isn't that bad, right! She decided to just kick this man off the bed!

Zhu Jie turned over gently. She tentatively poked Ji Yi. No reaction. Huh? Is he asleep? A wicked grin spread across Zhu Jie's face.

At this moment, Ji Yi wasn't asleep at all. He only felt the person behind him shifting restlessly, even poking him tentatively. He instantly went on alert. What does this person want?

Although he felt the pants-pulling incident in the snow was an accident, that was just his own assumption. Who knew if it was real?

Just as he had every hair on his body standing on end in defense, that person actually hooked a leg around his? What... what does this person want to do?

Ji Yi whipped around instantly, unhesitatingly clamping his legs around Zhu Jie's.

Zhu Jie was nearly scared witless. No way! What does he think he's doing? She only felt this man's legs were equally powerful; she couldn't break free for a moment. She had only wanted to kick him off the bed—she had no intention of teasing him!

Ji Yi was stunned himself. He'd just controlled the legs, and this guy started moving his hands too. He hurriedly reached out to grab and twist Zhu Jie's hands. The two instantly tangled in a wrestle.

No way? Seeing him actually grab her hands, Zhu Jie was terrified too. He's getting serious? Can she scream... rape?
