Chapter 40: Forced Love
"You seem to be angry?" Xia Xiaoyu asked tentatively.
Su Ming suppressed his irritable emotions and took a deep breath: "I'm not angry." ”
"What's next?" Flora said with a smile.
She walked to the kitchen, opened the fridge, and looked inside, it was full of ingredients that would last them for weeks.
"It's very well prepared, it's almost noon, I'll cook, you can watch TV for a while."
Flora took on the responsibility of cooking, as if she had become the rightful hostess of the house.
"Do you want me to help? I don't know how to cook, but chopping vegetables or something should be okay. Su Ming said embarrassedly.
"It would be great if you could help me, can you help me wash the dishes?"
"Okay."
"There's a piece of frozen beef in the fridge, and some fried frozen food, so let's use these for lunch, right?" "Also, what do you want to eat at night?" ”
"Hmm...... I'm a casual person. Su Ming replied while washing the vegetables.
Flora glanced at Su Ming secretly, thinking back to the information she read yesterday in her mind, she came prepared this time, and she must make Su Ming like her.
However, this is not a simple matter, because Su Ming is not an ordinary man.
Yesterday Flora consulted a lot of research on the psychology of the sexes, and also read a lot of discussions on the Internet about the topic of sex, and then she came up with a few very important laws of attraction.
She specifically analyzes these rules with notes, and then classifies them into two distinct aspects, one is the persona and the other is the experience.
The attraction of the first impression must be based on the personality, and the subsequent experience will determine the development trajectory of the relationship between the two parties.
She and Su Ming have only known each other for a few days, and if they want to attract each other's attention, it is very important to create a character who likes them.
But it is precisely this character that makes Flora hate a headache, because according to her research, women's attractiveness to men is prioritized from high to low, in order: appearance, three views, personality, living environment, and finally social pressure.
Among them, the next three influencing factors are almost equal, and the first influencing factor, that is, appearance, occupies more than 80% of the weight.
In other words, if these conditions do not annoy each other, women with outstanding appearance will be favored by men.
If this theory is only placed under normal circumstances, it has a strong guiding effect, but when it is placed on Su Ming, it does not work.
Flora knew that she was beautiful, but she could feel that the other party did not have a natural affection for her because of her appearance.
Now, her strongest weapon is no longer effective, and the only thing left to rely on is the other three conditions.
Three views, character, living environment.
Three views and personality, she and Su Ming did not communicate in depth, and then they needed to test it slowly, and then disguise it as he liked.
For disguise, Flora is still very confident, she has known how to disguise herself since she was a child, externally, she can make herself a nobleman, for the Osborne family, she can hide her ambitions, she believes that this time she can also become what Su Ming likes.
What troubles Flora the most is the other two factors – the living environment and social pressures.
If these two problems can be solved, Su Ming will like himself.
"Okay, washed, what else do I need to do next?"
Flora's thoughts were interrupted by Su Ming, and she smiled at the other party: "I don't need your help anymore, I'll leave it to me next!" Soon I will be able to eat. ”
"I'm sorry for you."
Su Ming turned around and left the kitchen and sat down on the sofa, Xia Xiaoyu had already done it on the sofa just now, turned on the home game console, and was ready to play the game.
"Which company made Dark Souls you mentioned last time?" Xia Xiaoyu asked.
Su Ming: "I shouldn't be able to find it, for you, this is an old game from more than 200 years ago." ”
"That's right...... That's a pity. Xia Xiaoyu sighed.
"I'm going to ask you for something." Su Ming said suddenly.
"What?"
"I'm not sure what will happen to me when I'm in a forced relationship, maybe I might be able to tell Flora about my identity as a time-traveler, and you'll have to warn me and stop me then."
"Understood." Xia Xiaoyu put her index finger and middle finger together, waved it in front of her forehead, and made a saluting gesture, "But in fact, it doesn't have to be like this, according to the information, this house can only make people fall in love, but it will not affect people's sanity." ”
"I don't think it affects the mind, it just doesn't make you lose yourself. But everyone's love status is different, some people will be very rational when they are in love, but some people will be very irrational when they are in love.
If I'm guessing correctly, the effect of this house should be to put the occupant in the way he should be when he was in love, and if I was in love with someone who didn't know how to hide it from the other person, then I could have told Flora who I was. ”
Su Ming's caution surprised Xia Xiaoyu.
She found that Su Ming had a characteristic, although Su Ming was not good at using what he could use around him, he had a very good control of the situation, and he was very keenly aware of the risks that had not yet happened, but might arise in the future.
After being prepared to prevent problems before they happen, Su Ming, Xia Xiaoyu and Flora's cohabitation life finally officially began.
……
In the first few days, Su Ming still felt that everything was quite normal, but on the third day, Su Ming felt that something was wrong.
That's right, Flora's eyes changed when she looked at him.
Su Ming couldn't describe that kind of look, her eyes were like a lake that had just thawed in early spring, emitting scattered broken light in the sun, and the occasional glance back was also like a warm breeze that made people feel refreshed...... Occasionally, it is like clouds and mist in the distant mountains, hiding a faint warmth.
Flora is more diligent in her work, in addition to taking care of three meals, she often makes snack, she does things with a virtuous gentleness to the bones, which makes it difficult for people to feel at ease.
This kind of treatment is not for everyone, Su Ming should enjoy it, but he can't do it, because he feels as if he has not entered a forced love state!
But...... It is also possible that he has entered a state of forced love, but because he has never been in love, he is very unfamiliar with the feeling of falling in love with someone.
It's terrible.,How can it be considered to have entered a forced love state?,What's the situation now?
"Xiaoyu, I think I'm ...... now"
"Su Ming, I feel ...... I seem to be in love with you. ”
Xia Xiaoyu touched her chin and muttered thoughtfully.
