Just as the atmosphere in the study was becoming increasingly tense, Ye Duoduo's words suddenly echoed in Jian He's mind.

Ye Duoduo said, "Don't mess with Cheng Yan. She's not someone our family can afford to offend..."

Jian He's mind cleared instantly at that moment.

She was stunned for a moment, then reached out and pushed away Cheng Yan, who was holding her waist.

She looked at Cheng Yan's sharply defined face and shook her head, saying, "No...we can't do this...we can't do this."

Faced with Jian He's rejection, Cheng Yan's surging emotions stopped abruptly, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over his face. He was a man who was very good at controlling himself, so he quickly composed himself.

He apologized to Jian He: "I'm sorry, it was my fault..."

"I just couldn't help myself... Jian He, I like you."

Cheng Yan, this aloof and arrogant man, actually confessed his feelings to Jian He in Jian He's study.

These are his true feelings, which he has kept hidden in his heart for so many years.

However, after hearing his confession, Jian He reacted as if her tail had been stepped on, and hurriedly waved her hand in rejection.

"No...no, Cheng...Ayan, we're not a good match."

Cheng Yan was somewhat disappointed by Jian He's reaction. He thought that he had been by Jian He's side for so long that she should be able to sense his enthusiasm.

His face turned cold, and he asked her with some disbelief, "Not suitable? Does that mean you don't like me?"

Cheng Yan's words made Jian He feel flustered. To be honest, Cheng Yan's excellence and handsomeness were enough to move any woman. Jian He was just an ordinary woman. How could she not be attracted to such a high-quality man as Cheng Yan?

only……

She had her concerns.

She first shook her head, then nodded; in short, her performance greatly displeased Cheng Yan.

Cheng Yan sighed softly, feeling very disappointed.

He gave Jian He a forced smile and said, "It seems I'm not very likable. You probably still love your ex-husband."

"I was overestimating myself, thinking that since you divorced Yin Muqiao, I would have a chance, but..."

Cheng Yan's words made Jian He feel particularly uncomfortable.

She hurriedly explained, "That's not how it is. I stopped loving Yin Muqiao a long time ago. I've already divorced him. Since we're divorced, there won't be any more entanglements between us."

"If that's the case, then why can't you accept me?" Cheng Yan pressed.

Jian He thought for a moment and said, "Ayan, it's not that I can't accept you, it's just that there's a big gap between us. You're so outstanding, why do you have to get entangled with a divorced woman?"

Cheng Yan was not intimidated by Jian He's words.

He walked over to Jian He and took her hand.

He said, "In my heart, I have never considered you as a divorced woman..."

“You are Jian He. You didn’t steal or rob. It’s just that your first marriage wasn’t going well. Since it wasn’t going well, you should end it.”

"You have the right to love others and to receive love from others. A second marriage is not a stain on your life, but simply an experience in your life."

“Jian He, no matter what you were like before, in my heart you will always be that innocent and lively little girl. I love you, regardless of whether you are divorced or not.”

Cheng Yan's sincere confession made Jian He feel sweet inside. After being manipulated by Yin Muqiao for so long, she couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard for the first time that she had the right to be loved by someone.

Seeing her tears, Cheng Yan panicked.

He reached out and gently pulled Jian He into his arms, whispering words of comfort.

He said, "Don't cry. I don't want you to agree to be with me right now. I'll give you time to slowly accept me."

“Ruibao likes me very much, and I like Ruibao very much too. Jianniu, you have to believe that your brother Ayan will love you well.”

"Take your time to think it over. No matter how long you think about it, as long as you turn around, I'll be waiting for you behind you."

“Jane…”

Cheng Yan called Jian He by her nickname, just like when they were children. Feeling loved, Jian He gradually opened her heart.

She reached out and involuntarily wrapped her arms around Cheng Yan's waist.

Although both of them felt a little flutter in their hearts, they managed to restrain their impulses.

The two of them slept soundly through the night on that not-so-large soft couch, covered with a thin quilt.

The next morning, the two people, who were fast asleep, were awakened by a loud "bang" as the door opened.

When they opened their eyes and hurriedly got up from the soft couch, what they saw was Rui Bao's joyful eyes.

Ruibao held the keys in his hand and cheered happily.

"Oh, that's great! Daddy and Mommy are sleeping in the same bed now. Uncle Cheng is my real dad from now on..."

"I have a dad now, I have my own dad now..."

Children speak without thinking, and Rui Bao's cheerful chatter almost drove Jian He crazy with embarrassment.

She got off the soft couch fully clothed and covered Ruibao's mouth without a second thought.

Despite his young age, Rui Bao is agile. As soon as he saw Jian He rushing towards him, he turned around, grabbed the keys, and ran away.

He was running while shouting in the living room.

"Daddy and Mommy are sleeping together now, Daddy and Mommy aren't shy..."

Facing the house servants, Jian He, still somewhat sleepy, wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground.

The servants were very self-aware; when they saw the embarrassed Jian He, they immediately lowered their faces and went about their own business.

Just then, Gao Xiang, who had been unable to contact Cheng Yan all night, rushed into the Jian family's living room. As soon as he entered, he heard Rui Bao's explosive words.

Gao Xiang was numb.

Last night, he left after dropping Cheng Yan off at Jian He's house, assuming that Cheng Yan would leave the Jian family after tutoring Jian He.

Unexpectedly, when he went to Cheng Yan's residence to pick her up in the morning, he couldn't reach Cheng Yan.

Having no other choice, he went to Jian He's house to find Cheng Yan again. As soon as he entered, he heard such a shocking truth.

His young master Cheng actually slept with Jian He?

They're both adults; what does sleeping together mean? How could Gao Xiang not understand?

"Ruibao, shut up, don't talk nonsense. Tell Mommy, did you lock the door to Mommy's study last night?"

Rui Bao made a face at Jian He, tacitly agreeing with his actions.

Jian He was furious and chased after Rui Bao.

"You little rascal, I'll spank you when I do it..."

To ease the awkwardness, Jianhe followed Ruibao upstairs.

Gao Xiang was about to follow Jian He and ask where Cheng Yan was when, unexpectedly, Cheng Yan, wearing a shirt, walked out of Jian He's study the next second...
