Ideal Mary Sue - Chapter 42

Luo Ao opened the address book and sent a text message to Imperial Capital University.

···

The Rogeli family is indeed a prominent family, as can be seen from the arrangement of their backyard, indicating their substantial wealth.

With fountains, bamboo forests, flowing streams, and flowers, it possesses a remarkable sense of mountainous beauty. It’s as if an entire hill has been brought over and presented after careful decoration.

The flower garden contains various species of flowers, all competing to bloom and filling the air with a garden full of floral fragrance, mixed with a faint yet captivating scent.

Eli smiled gently as he watched her lean down to smell the flowers, her eyes squinting in comfort, looking adorable and beautiful.

Hearing her exclaim, “It smells so good!”

Eli’s lips curved upwards, and his brown eyes reflected the side of her face. His gaze seemed to pass over the back of her neck, partially covered by her black hair. He slowly said, “Yes… it smells really good…”

It truly smelled amazing, very captivating…

Su Ning reached out and picked a small white flower, handing it to Eli. A rosy hue gradually spread across her fair face, her tone anxious, her watery eyes trembling. She said, “Second Prince… this… this is for you…”

Eli smiled faintly, reaching out and accepting it, gently holding her hand, and said warmly, “Thank you. Also, you can call me Eli.”

“Mm… Alright, Eli…” Su Ning revealed a soft smile and softly said, “Eli, where can I see the seven-colored fish you mentioned? I want to go and see them.”

“You can see them by crossing this stream. Come, I’ll take you there.”

Eli held her hand and led her across the stream.

While stepping on a large stone in the stream, Su Ning accidentally slipped, nearly falling in. Fortunately, Eli reached out in time and pulled her back.

They were very close, and the intoxicating pheromonal aura became even stronger. Eli restrained himself from tightening his grip on her hand but couldn’t help silently taking a deep breath against her neck.

Not enough… not enough…

Eli’s slender fingers gently flicked aside the strands of hair covering the back of her neck. His fingertips trembled, clearly suppressing his desires to the extreme.

Bite… bite…

If he bites, she would be his…

As Su Ning felt that overwhelming and arousing aura, making her legs tremble and her heart race, she finally realized she had gone too far with her teasing!

The indiscriminate ideal combination of pheromones… its effect was undeniably strong!

“Eli… Eli, what’s wrong with you?”

Noticing her nervousness and unease, Eli released her hand with great self-control. He placed his hand behind his back, deeply embedding his fingertips into his palm, and smiled softly, saying, “It’s nothing. I’m just afraid you haven’t regained your balance yet. Although the stream isn’t deep, the water is cold, and falling in would make you catch a chill.”

“Mm,” Su Ning nodded gently.

Suddenly, Eli’s communicator vibrated. He opened the answer button, and a projection appeared from the communicator.

“Second Prince, the Ruiril Army is coming to the Imperial Capital University Command Academy for recruitment. They need you to personally return to the school to access personnel files…,” Eli contemplated for a moment and finally nodded, saying, “Alright, I’ll come over soon.”

In fact, this matter didn’t necessarily require him, but he wasn’t sure what irreversible things he might do to her if he stayed in his current state. Therefore, it would be best to leave and calm down first.

Eli apologized to her, saying, “I’m sorry, it seems I can’t accompany you home. But don’t worry, I’ll leave my people here to personally escort you home.”

“It’s alright,” Su Ning understood and said, “Eli, go and do what you need to do. Recruitment can’t be delayed.”

“Okay,” Eli looked deeply into her eyes and suddenly leaned down, placing a light kiss on her forehead. He whispered softly, “I’ll make it up to you. Tomorrow, I’ll take you to the Tila Concert.”

“Mm, I’ll wait for you at home.”

···

As soon as Eli left, Su Ning didn’t dare to stay here any longer. After finishing her cup of milk tea, she stood up and headed towards the exit to the backyard. However, she was stopped halfway by Luo Ao.

Su Ning immediately put on a gloomy expression, which was Luo Ao’s least favorite demeanor.

“General Luo Ao, is there something you need?”

God knows how he managed to suppress the urge to tear Eli apart when he kissed her!

“Walk with me,” Luo Ao said.

“Sorry, I…” I have something to do and need to leave!

Before she could finish her sentence, Luo Ao interrupted with a frown, “I didn’t ask for your opinion.”

Is this… is it her gloomy personality that makes him dislike her attitude?

Right, right, you can continue.

“No!” Hehe, her gloomy and stubborn nature is so annoying.

Su Ning cheered herself on, thinking that Luo Ao would give up soon…

Why does it have to be like this again! Such a stark contrast in how she treats Eli and how she treats him!

Whenever Luo Ao thinks back to the scene of them holding hands, embracing, and kissing just now, he can’t suppress the surge of anger in his heart. It spreads throughout his body, making him extremely uncomfortable.

The only thing that can calm him down is this woman in front of him who treats him with extreme coldness.

But she doesn’t seem willing to get close to him.

What is the difference between him and Eli that makes her treat them so differently!

Is it because Eli is gentle and affectionate?

Or is it because he is too cold and unfeeling, lacking in empathy?

Luo Ao pressed his lips together, his dark eyes staring directly into her eyes as he said, “I’ll take you home.”

“No need!”

Luo Ao furrowed his brows tightly, his gaze dark and dangerous as he stared at her, repeating each word with emphasis, “I said, I’ll take you home!”

“I don’t want to!” Su Ning shook her head to refuse.

···

Luo Ao was born on Planet Rama, which is widely known as a backward, chaotic, and dirty place, referred to as the “Dumpster Planet” by neighboring stars. There, power reigns supreme, and anything can be seized as long as you have enough strength to take it.

His mother was a weak and inept person who was expelled and driven away by the family, yet she never developed any resistance or resentment. On the contrary, she often taught him to treat others with kindness and to appreciate everything he had.

Even when money and food were stolen from her, she would only blame herself, thinking that she hadn’t managed the money properly or stored the food securely.

When neighbors brought food and clothes, she would gratefully spend half an hour thanking them profusely.

Little did she know that those things were all personally stolen by Luo Ao himself. His mother despised violence, so he kept it a secret from her and used violence to counteract violence in this world filled with brutality.

His mother would say, “Thank God for giving us everything.”

Luo Ao thought to himself, “Everything I have, I took it for myself, so I can only thank myself.”

Although many years have passed, and he has changed a lot, what he learned on Planet Rama has been ingrained in his very core and will never be forgotten in this lifetime.

Plunder and occupation have become his nature.

And now, he desires Su Ning.

So, Su Ning, don’t refuse me, because even I don’t know what I might do to you in the next second…

Just as she rejected him, Su Ning immediately sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere and turned to run, but it was too late. Luo Ao reached out with his long arm and pulled her into his embrace. One hand pressed against the back of her neck, while the other forcefully wiped her forehead with his thumb, as if cleaning something dirty.

Her fair forehead instantly showed red marks.

“It hurts, it hurts!!!” Su Ning couldn’t turn her head or resist, she could only sniffle weakly and plead, “Let me go, let me wash it, I need to wash it!”

Completely ignoring her wishes, Luo Ao leaned in and took a sniff, brushing aside her hair and burying his head in the nape of her neck, licking and sucking, where the intoxicatingly sweet fragrance emanated from…

His wet and hot tongue, along with the hot breath, gathered at her neck, causing an irresistible tingling sensation.

In the next moment she felt a sharp pain from his teeth biting into her neck, strength seemed to be sucked out of her body, and she completely went limp, relying solely on his support.

All she could hear was his heavy and suppressed panting.

She had been temporarily marked by him.
