A beautiful summer night

They used to bicker almost every time they met, but now that they're together, they remain silent. Their fingers are tightly clasped, and warmth flows between them. Xia Wanzhi got tired after walking for a short while; ten minutes was her limit.

People who dislike standing also dislike walking.

"This neighborhood is huge," Xia Wanzhi remarked.

"Tired?" Xie Qiyan could clearly sense that she was listless.

"How could that be? I just want to live forever," Xia Wanzhi said, spouting nonsense with a straight face.

Xie Qiyan chuckled and, as he turned to walk back, added, "Yeah, I miss it too. Changsheng would be very touched if he knew."

Xia Wanzhi: "..."

Just then, a young couple passed by nearby; the woman seemed to be drunk and was leaning on the man's back.

Xie Qiyan glanced at it twice, and after walking for a while, he suddenly stopped.

Xia Wanzhi quickly declined, saying, "I don't want to."

Don't think she doesn't know what he's thinking.

Xie Qiyan smiled and said, "What are you thinking? I just wanted to ask if you could let me experience what it's like to be a boyfriend."

Xia Wanzhi asked, puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Simply put, can I carry you on my back?

Xia Wanzhi's brow twitched.

She knew it!

But she still politely declined, saying, "No need, your girlfriend has legs."

"Okay, I understand," Xie Qiyan said slowly, slowing his pace even further.

"It's ok."

"I was just rejected by my girlfriend."

"it's not a big deal."

Xia Wanzhi could no longer contain herself: "Thank you, Qi Yan!"

Xie Qiyan smiled slightly: "I'm here."

"Squat down." If he didn't get his way, he could keep nagging until tomorrow. Xia Wanzhi patted his back and scolded him in a mix of embarrassment and annoyance, "Why are you acting like a spoiled little wife?"

Xie Xiaojiao's wife smiled smugly, pulled up her trouser leg, squatted down slightly, and bounced a couple of times as she carried Xia Wanzhi on her back, commenting, "So light, where did all the weight you ate tonight go?"

Xia Wanzhi's ears burned, and she wrapped her arm around his mouth from behind, saying, "Xie Qiyan, don't speak!"

This position left her lying face down on Xie Qiyan's broad back. The summer clothes were made of thin fabric, and the hard back touched the soft fabric. Xie Qiyan stiffened for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's good, it wasn't a waste of money."

Xia Wanzhi only realized the meaning of Xie Qiyan's last words when she got to her front door. Her ears burned instantly, and she struggled to jump down and unlocked her door without looking back.

Xie Qiyan, locked out of the door: "..."

He had never been in a relationship before, and this was the first time he had liked someone, so he had to learn many things on the spot.

But now it seems like things have gone a bit too far.

They didn't act like a couple who had just been together for a day.

Xie Qiyan stood outside the door for a while before politely ringing the doorbell.

Xia Wanzhi opened the door with a dark expression: "What do you want?"

"You don't like it?" Xie Qiyan asked bluntly. "If you don't like it, you can say so, and I'll slow down the pace accordingly. Of course, it might not be possible."

Xia Wanzhi was taken aback.

Xie Qiyan continued in a serious tone, "After all, I love you deeply."

Xia Wanzhi: "..."

Their eyes met, and Xia Wanzhi couldn't help but burst out laughing. As she laughed, she cursed, "Xie Qiyan, how childish are you! How can you be like this? Anyone who didn't know better would think I was dating some elementary school kid."

"There's no way around it, it's my first time, please bear with me, Ms. Maruko." Xie Qiyan squeezed through the crack in the door into Xia Wanzhi's house in no time, naturally changed into slippers, went to the bathroom to wash his hands, and came out, "Or you can teach me how to talk to her."

Xia Wanzhi ignored his childish behavior and picked out a bottle of anti-swelling and pain-relieving medicine from the medicine she bought today: "Come and apply the medicine."

Aside from being surprised by Xie Qiyan's changes, she was mostly happy.

Several emotions were mixed together, and I couldn't calm down for a long time.

Falling in love is really intoxicating.

It's not that she's infatuated.

Xie Qiyan was even more obsessed than her.

A domineering CEO drastically alters a primary school student's life.

Xia Wanzhi couldn't help but laugh whenever she thought about his words and actions throughout the day.

Xie Qiyan had his back to her. After taking off his suit, he unbuttoned his shirt one button at a time. When Xia Wanzhi turned her head after dipping a cotton swab in the medicine, she saw that he had taken off half of his shirt.

The man's strong and alluring physique was thus exposed to the air.

Hard to guard against.

Xia Wanzhi's hand trembled as she read it.

"You, you, you stop taking your clothes off!" Xia Wanzhi quickly stopped him, her wide eyes meeting Xie Qiyan's half-smiling gaze as he turned around.

Xia Wanzhi: "..."

Okay, okay, so flashy, huh?

But she really couldn't stand it anymore...

"Xie Qiyan, I feel I need to explain. We just started talking, you don't need to be so generous." Xia Wanzhi was on the verge of tears. If he seduced her like this every day, she really wouldn't be able to resist.

Xie Qiyan was secretly pleased, but on the surface he pretended to be innocent and pure: "What are you thinking? This shirt costs tens of thousands. It would be a pity if you accidentally got it dirty."

Xia Wanzhi: "..."

Okay, it was she who was despicable.

Taking a deep breath, Xia Wanzhi decided not to pursue the matter further and reached out to poke his lower back: "Does it hurt?"

Xie Qiyan reflexively tensed his entire back.

Xia Wanzhi almost burst out laughing at his reaction: "Ahem, President Xie, don't be nervous, relax."

She realized that although Xie Qiyan was good at flirting, he was actually incredibly innocent at heart.

Xie Qiyan's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Don't touch it. Just this one spot, a little bit will do."

Well, now he's really in deep trouble.

Terrible.

Let out a soft breath, and Xie Qiyan calmly tried to put his shirt on.

Xia Wanzhi scolded, "Don't move around. The medicine hasn't dried yet. It's a shirt worth tens of thousands of yuan. It would be such a waste to get it dirty."

Xie Qiyan: "..."

Xia Wanzhi suppressed a laugh and gently applied the medicine to his lower back in circular motions with a cotton swab.

Xie Qiyan clenched his fist; the cool, tingling sensation was incredibly arousing, and the bluish veins on his forearm were particularly prominent, suggesting that his self-control had reached its limit.

But Xia Wanzhi poked his skin, and he flinched, almost letting out a muffled groan.

Xia Wanzhi raised her eyebrows smugly: "President Xie, you can just go back shirtless later. Don't wear that shirt that costs tens of thousands of yuan, or you'll get it dirty."

Xie Qiyan closed his eyes: "..."

Joking aside, Xia Wanzhi could tell he was really in pain. She was genuinely startled when she woke up this morning and saw his face suddenly magnified, so she reflexively kicked him with almost all her might.

"Does it hurt a lot?" Xia Wanzhi asked apologetically.

Xie Qiyan turned around, his shirt hanging loosely. Seeing Xia Wanzhi's worried expression, he raised his hand and patted her head, saying slowly, "You won't die. You'll be fine in a few days. Don't worry."

"Who told you to get into my bed?" Xia Wanzhi muttered to herself, pulling his hand down and squeezing it in her palm.

"Isn't it what you meant by sleeping with someone?" Xie Qiyan said again, seriously shifting the blame.

Xia Wanzhi didn't argue with him. She got up and pushed him out, saying, "After you take a shower before bed, apply this medicine again. If it still hurts a lot, tell me and we'll go to the hospital."

Xie Qiyan turned his head: "Aren't you going to help me apply it?"

Xia Wanzhi: "You have your own hands."

Xie Qiyan argued with her: "One should finish what one starts. I'll come to you at midnight to apply the medicine."

This means there's no room for negotiation.

Xia Wanzhi had no choice but to give a perfunctory reply: "We'll talk about it later."

As soon as the door opened, Xie Qiyan, shirtless, was pushed out the door. Before he could even stand up, he turned his head and stared at Xie Tan, who had her hair in two ponytails.

Xie Tan grabbed her backpack strap, suddenly closed her eyes, and turned around abruptly: "Ahhhhh, I didn't see anything!"

Xia Wanzhi popped her head out at the scream and hurriedly explained, "Stop! Stop! It's not what you think, my darling!"

Xie Qiyan never lets others have their way. He quickly put on his expensive shirt, which he was reluctant to get dirty, and casually said, "An explanation is just a cover-up."

Xia Wanzhi was speechless: "..." "Thank you to all the darlings who followed the updates, voted, and gave rewards~ mua! [Ninety-degree bow]"
