Xiao Zhiren's vision had gotten blurry but he could still see how Ru was maintaining distance between them. "What kind of a drug it is?"

"Use your own brain. Obviously, it's some kind of an aphrodisiac." She stated rather calmly.

"Why are you moving away?" The whites of his eyes had already turned scarlet with the way he was trying to control his urges. He had never felt like this before. He felt like someone had placed him in an oven. It was burning hot. His mind was slowly getting hazy and to hold back his sanity, he was biting the inside of his cheek and he bit so hard that he could taste his own blood.

As he managed to hold onto the last shred of his sanity, he said, "Do you think I'll pounce on you? Such little faith. Tsk. Tsk."

Ru who stood on a side kept her eyes on his each and every move. By now, he had completely unbuttoned his shirt and his hard rock chest was right there for her to see. "Men and animals in heat can't be trusted."

Xiao Zhiren's jaw dropped to the floor. No, no. Not figuratively. He literally fell to the ground and his jaw hit the floor. YES! That was the extent of his shock over her words. Because of the anger that he felt inside, his body heated up even more. He didn't bother answering her and ran towards the ensuite bathroom.

He threw his shirt on the floor and sat down in the tub as he turned on the water. He didn't even bother stripping completely. The cold water slowly soaked his body but it wasn't much effective. He even had the illusion that the cold water and his burning body were making a sizzling sound at the contact.

Ru was leaning against the doorframe as she watched him with ease. There was no worry or anxiousness on her face at all. Ru took a step inside and sat at the marble edge of the tub. "Under the cold water, you'll only end up with a cold. It won't be effective on the drug that is in your system."

"Do you have a better idea?" He gritted out.

"How about I throw you in the sea?" Ru's response made him forget all about his pain as he glared at her.

"I'll freeze in the sea!" He shouted back.

"Of course, you won't. I guarantee." Ru seemed really sure.

"And how can you be this sure?" He asked even though he was unwilling to ask.

"Because before you turn into a popsicle, the sharks would have munched on you as a night snack." Ru laughed out at her own joke. Xiao Zhiren lifted his wet arm to touch her but she moved away. "Hey, don't wet my clothes. Or I'll really throw you in the sea." He hit his hand on the water splashing it. "On second thought, sharks won't eat a cheeky person like you. Only I can put up with you."

"Are you a shark?" He asked in return. "Oh, no. You're the dinosaur. How can I forget?"

"Huh? But dinosaurs have extinct from this world." Ru argued back.

"You're an exception left for me. So, I should be the one saying that I am the only one who can put up with you!" In his argument, Xiao Zhiren hadn't even noticed that his body wasn't as painful as before. Definitely, it had something to do with Ru who was trying to distract him with this ridiculous argument.

"But you can't complain about putting up with me."

"Why can't I?" He shot back at her.

"Because you love me," Ru answered with a shrug of her shoulders leaving Xiao Zhiren a defeated soldier in this battle. As he had said, when it came to using the brain, he really couldn't win from her. He was not her competition at all.

"Don't you think you should be helping me right now to ease this pain?"

"What do you think I'm doing? Having a tea time party with you?" Ru snapped at him in response.

"Most girls would have offered themselves to ease my pain." He mumbled.

"Then find most girls. I definitely have some principles." Ru humphed at him while rolling her eyes.

"Huh? So, you won't let me touch you at all?" Ru gave him an appalling look. How could he be worried about that right now?

"Look, I definitely am not gonna let you touch me when there is no difference between you and an animal who wants to mate."

"So, I can do whatever I want when I'm sober?" Ru gripped his hair and dunked his head in the tub full of water. As he came up to breathe, he said, "It was worth a try."

Just like he was helpless before her brain, she was helpless before his cheekiness. Both made each other speechless but perhaps, that was the road leading to the time where words weren't even necessary between them.

A grunt escaped his mouth involuntarily and he stared at her face. Whether his face was wet because of the water or his own sweat, he couldn't tell the difference at this point.

"Do you really have no solution? You're a genius in medicines." His hope was still on her. He also didn't have any wish to touch her when he wasn't even in his own senses. That would be disrespecting their love and he couldn't bring himself to blemish his love. The pain was bearable but using her body to ease this pain... Even the idea was unbearable for him.

"Do you think I don't want to help you? Of course, I do. But..." Ru looked hesitant. "I've always kept a distance from these so-called love drugs. Aphrodisiac and I never crossed the path in my entire life. I told you I have principles and this kind of drugs is against my principles."

Between the waves of pain in his body, he felt his admiration and adoration for her rising. She really never did anything that was against her conscious. She really was a masterpiece.

"But if I had silver needles, I could have lessened your pain. Even if I knock you out, the drug might affect your body." That was her problem. She forgot her silver needles in the clothes she took off at Melody's place. "It was in my jeans but while changing so many gowns... It completely skipped from my mind that I was supposed to take my silver needles."

"Couldn't you tell me sooner?" He screamed at her in resentment. "Those clothes are in the suitcase outside."

"Really?" She ran outside and rummaged through the clothes and found the jeans which had her pouch of silver needles and in this case, Xiao Zhiren's savior. "Come out." She called him out and made him lay down on the floor while he was still drenched.

Her hand touched his chest and he shouted, "Don't touch me. You're making the drug worse."

Ru slapped his head, "If I won't touch, how will I treat you?" After berating him, she used a couple of needles on his chest near his heart and some on his neck. She was trying to control the blood flow in his body to bring his heart rate at a normal level. After inserting a bunch of needles in his body, she sat beside him and closed her eyes.

"Why can't I move my body?" His question made her eyes shot open.

She pulled a needle from his neck and coughed awkwardly, hiding her mistake. "I thought not moving will help."

"How long will it take?" He asked.

"An hour or so." She replied. "I can't find herbs here. Otherwise, you would have been fine by now."

"Hm."

"Now, the question is who really drugged you?" Ru's mind was obviously working overtime as she couldn't just sit still. This curiosity was too much for her. But now that, his body was not in any danger, Ru thought about what just conspired and laughed out.

Xiao Zhiren looked at her face and joined in.

"Someone actually drugged you, why are you laughing?" She looked at him oddly.

"And you're the one stuck with me, why are you laughing?" He gave his response.

"It just seems funny. It's my first time seeing a man getting drugged." She replied in between her laughter. "I always thought the girls were the victims in this. But poor you!"
