The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

"You haven't forgotten what he said at the beginning, right?

Why did he do this? Wasn't it to appease Shi Rong and reassure you all?

Although Shi Yang had nothing to say, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was unhappy if he couldn't sleep with Shi Rong in his arms for a day.

"Okay, brother, just bear with it."

Xing Jiashan patted his broad shoulders, pulled up his drooping long arms, and returned to his room.

"You sleep with me tonight."

Seeing this, Chu Yu and Song Qianchen also dragged the silent Huo Jiuzhou away.

"Boss, let's sleep together tonight."

……

"Want a drink?"

Xing Jiashan worked tirelessly to make the bed. He saw Shi Yang's tall and straight figure standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, smoking one cigarette after another.

I knew he was distraught and in a bad mood, and he definitely couldn't sleep.

He took out a bottle of strong-flavored liquor from Shi Yong's collection and two wine cups from the wine cabinet.

He brought it close to Shi Yang and waved it in front of him, and the latter forced a smile at him.

"Okay."

The two men sat on the floor. There was no snack on the carved yellow pear wood table, only two overflowing cups of white wine.

But for Shi Yang, it was enough.

He pinched the edge of the wine cup with his long fingers and drank it all in one gulp. He drank five cups in a row before he finally calmed his shattered heart.

"Jiashan, tell me, am I really that bad?"

Knowing what he was asking, Xing Jiashan smiled meaningfully.

"Shi Yang, believe me.

Based on my understanding of Shi Rong, when she said those words tonight, there was at least 50% to 60% anger in her.

The remaining four or five points are all because of my reluctance to leave you and the boss.

This shows that the direction you two have been working towards, even if it was wrong, has achieved the desired results.

She can't bear to leave you.

You can be angry, but just give her some time, and everything will be fine once she figures it out."

Shi Yang shook his head dumbly.

"But she never said that to me before. This means she is really disappointed in me..."

Xing Jiashan was speechless.

"Then you've never done anything like this to her before."

That’s right!

Shi Yang reacted belatedly.

"After all, it's my fault. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have agreed to Huo Jiuzhou's stupid idea."

Xing Jiashan laughed again.

"Shi Yang, how could you possibly think that this bad idea was really the boss's alone?

If you didn't want to do it at that time, you wouldn't agree.

Actually, I can understand. You guys are guarding a beauty like Shi Rong every day. If you say you have no other thoughts, that would be a lie.

Even for the three of us who can only look but not eat, every time we go to sleep with other women, the only thing we think about is her.

So Shi Yang, there is no right or wrong in love.

I can only say that what you did today was either premeditated or you were impulsive.”

"no!"

Shi Yang looked up, anxious to prove his innocence.

“I have never conspired with Huo Jiuzhou about this matter.

He just proposed it suddenly, and I agreed without hesitation.

I thought that with me around, Yan'er wouldn't be so scared."

Xing Jiashan was completely speechless.

It is said that men in love are fools. Tonight he finally understood the meaning of this sentence.

"That's why I said this. This could just be a momentary impulse on your part."

Shi Yang was stunned.

"Oh...yes."

Xing Jiashan smiled bitterly and shook his head, then picked up his wine cup and clinked it with his.

"Okay, two more drinks and then I have to go to bed. I have to get up at 8 am tomorrow and leave at 10 am.

Don't delay any longer, or Shi Rong will get even angrier."

Xing Jiashan's words seemed to turn on a voluntary switch in Shi Yang's body.

He drank the wine in the glass, and without even paying attention to the unfinished game on the table, he dived into bed and lay down.

Xing Jiashan was stunned. This guy is really hopeless...

"Not taking a shower?"

Shi Yang pulled his cool silk quilt over him in a huff, covered his head with it and fell asleep.

"Since Yan'er won't let me go back to the house, why would I take such a nice shower?"

Xing Jiashan put away the wine bottle and wine glass in boredom, went into the bathroom to rinse them, and put them back in their original places.

"Then just sleep like this. I won't wash you. You'll stink to death."

Tokiyo: ...

The master bedroom, which was a few doors away from them, was now pitch black.

Only above the heads of the man and woman lying on the bed, several ice butterflies made entirely of crystal emitted bursts of bright silver light.

"Do you know why I've been constantly improving my internal cultivation, eager to cultivate this Snow Mountain Ice Butterfly?"

Shi Rong shook his head honestly.

"do not know."

Xie Yixiu smiled.

"Because to me, these are the ice butterflies that sparkle and shine like stars.

Just like you, incredibly beautiful.

If you really want to find a species similar to you in nature, they are probably the only ones, right?

With them by my side, no matter where I go, it feels like you are always with me, like a shadow."

Shi Rong also laughed.

"Brother, are you...confessing to me?"

Xie Yixiu nodded without hesitation.

"You can understand it this way, you are the biggest dream of my life.

I knew you were my crush from the first time I saw you when I was little.

In the past, whenever Shi Yang asked me why I was so callous, I would always tell him:

'Because I have devoted all my passion in this life to you without reservation.'

This makes me not enthusiastic about other women, including Ye Wan.

We have been together for many years, and she has always been the one taking the initiative. I know this is unfair to her, so I will give her everything I have.

If she died, I would be sad, but I know that it was not love."

Having said that, Xie Yixiu gently pulled up Shi Rong's slender, white and soft little hand and clasped her fingers together.

"Because love is right beside us, we can't speak it out."

Shi Rong tilted his head.

"why?"

Xie Yixiu also turned his head and looked at her, his eyes full of affection and filled with deep love.

"Because I am much older than you, our thoughts are destined not to stay on the same level.

Just like what you said about Max before, if I had been born a few years earlier, maybe I could have become sworn brothers with Uncle Shi.

I think this is also the reason why Max has been guarding you for many years but never expressed it.

Compared to being together, we are more reluctant to lose you, so as long as we can see you living a good life, that is enough."

Shi Rong did not respond to him because she didn't know what to say.

She just quietly looked at Xie Yixiu's handsome and elegant face.

At this moment, Xie Yixiu finally understood.

Why is it that every man who has entered Shi Xiang's bed will involuntarily develop crazy thoughts of possessing her?

Because she is so beautiful!

Especially when she stares at you intently, with her thin eyebrows like lotus in the distant mountains and her clear eyes like water.

An exquisitely carved jade nose, a small mouth like a blooming peach, and smooth and silky skin.

Every frame exudes unparalleled charm and the temperament of a secluded orchid in a valley.

So much so that Xie Yixiu couldn't help himself, and kissed her soft and fragrant little mouth with his thin lips, kissing her passionately.

Her lips and teeth are smooth and delicate, her tongue is as silky as silk, and even the walls of her mouth are filled with a lingering sweet fragrance.
