On the way back to the apartment, Gu Yao held his breath and refused to speak to Xie Gui.

Although Xie Gui had been joking, Gu Yao knew he was testing him.

Test his bottom line.

If he softens his heart and allows this person to invade his territory, he will take advantage of the situation.

Gu Yao kept a straight face and stopped talking to him.

On the contrary, Xie Gui, like a child who wanted to make peace but didn't know how, would poke Gu Yao's arm from time to time.

That's incredibly childish.

Xie Gui poked him, and Gu Yao moved a little to the other side until there was no way to avoid it. Then he raised his head and glared at Xie Gui.

Only when he could no longer bear it did Gu Yao growl in a low voice, "Thank you, Gui!"

Xie Gui weakly withdrew his hand, lowered his eyes, and looked at him pitifully, "A Yao..."

Gu Yao's brow twitched, and he stared at Xie Gui for a moment, "A Yao..."

His voice was low and aggrieved; anyone who didn't know better would think that Gu Yao had done something utterly heinous.

He had a handsome face with delicate and beautiful features, and a pair of bright, sparkling silver-gray eyes.

Gu Yao sighed softly and finally compromised by moving it to the middle.

Xie Gui, always quick to read the room, immediately moved over, grabbed Gu Yao's hand, and kneaded it in his own palm.

"A-Yao, don't be angry. There are so many people in the Xie family, why won't you accept my kindness?"

Gu Yao turned her head to look at Xie Gui, and pulled her hand out of his. "Xie Gui, do you like me?"

Xie Gui looked at his empty palms, curled his fingers, clenched them into fists, and looked at Gu Yao with deep, unfathomable eyes, but the smile on his lips was gentle.

"Ah Yao, of course I like you."

Her voice was gentle and tender, yet it carried a hint of eeriness.

Gu Yao sighed softly, then sat down next to Xie Gui, cupped Xie Gui's face in his hands, and gently touched Xie Gui's slightly pale lips with his fingertips, tracing the beautiful lip tips.

Xie Gui's eyes widened instantly, staring blankly at Gu Yao, as if he didn't understand what Gu Yao was doing.

Gu Yao smiled, then his eyes narrowed. "Xie Gui, you're being very naughty."

As he spoke, Gu Yao suddenly went mad and shoved Xie Gui backward uncontrollably. However, due to the limited space, he only fell into the corner. He tried to get up, but Gu Yao pressed down on his shoulder and held him firmly in the corner.

Amidst the dappled light and shadow, the boy's light-colored eyes held a hint of coldness, suppressing the warmth that should have been present in them.

Ruthless yet beautiful.

Brilliant and dazzling.

Xie Gui was momentarily stunned, and Gu Yao had already lowered her head, her exquisitely flawless face right in front of Xie Gui.

Now, those light-colored eyes were filled with irritation.

"Ah Yao, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Yao had already grabbed Xie Gui's black hair and leaned in to kiss him.

Xie Gui winced in pain, frowned, and hissed softly.

The person who was holding him down took the opportunity to grab the back of his head. Perhaps the kiss made Gu Yao feel happy, because the strength between his fingers loosened.

Later on, it became unclear who was holding whom captive.

After a long while, Gu Yao stepped back a little, their foreheads touching, and neither of them was breathing steadily.

Their warm breaths mingled, and two buttons on Xie Gui's shirt had popped open, revealing a bright red mark on his collarbone, exuding an unusual eroticism.

With his silver-gray eyes slightly red, Xie Gui was pinned down in a corner, his clothes disheveled. At this moment, he looked like a virtuous man who had been defiled.

Her usually cold face showed some grievance, and she couldn't help but blush.

Seeing the large blush that stretched all the way to her ears, Gu Yao couldn't help but chuckle softly. Her slender white fingertips touched the beautiful red blush, and her warm breath fell on her ear.

"Brother Xie, your face is so red! Are you shy? Who was that last Saturday night...?"

The boy's clear voice stopped abruptly, and Xie Gui covered his pale pink lips with his hand.

Gu Yao blinked at Xie Gui, grabbed his wrist, and forcefully pulled Xie Gui's hand down, looking innocent. "Brother Xie, why are you so fierce? I'm just stating the facts. Last Saturday, I told you to stop for a bit, but you wouldn't listen to me. Why are you so shy now?"

Hearing these shameful words, Xie Gui's face turned as red as a ripe shrimp. "Kid, stop talking..."

Gu Yao chuckled as he watched Xie Gui, then lunged forward and landed on top of Xie Gui.

Xie Gui instinctively grabbed his waist and held him firmly in his arms.

Gu Yao nestled against his neck, her movements incredibly intimate, but her voice carried an obvious threat, "Brother Xie, I don't like people prying into my affairs, understand?"

"So, don't try to put your people in my company, understand?"

Xie Gui simply pursed his lips, put his arm around Gu Yao's waist, and remained silent.

Even though he knew Xie Gui wouldn't hurt him, he still disliked this behavior that lacked boundaries.

They're dating, not inseparable.

Even lovers need some personal space.

Moreover, Gu Yao doesn't like others intruding on his territory.

If it were someone else...

But Gu Yao always showed more tolerance towards the person in front of him.

Gu Yao sighed softly.

He cupped Xie Gui's face in his hands, his eyes earnest, "Brother Xie, no one is more important than you, you know?"

In his past life, he only had one goal: to avenge his parents. In this life, he has Xie Gui.

I also feel a greater attachment to this world.

"Brother Xie, give me some time. I will make sure that the names Gu Yao and Xie Gui stand side by side in everyone's hearts. I want everyone to know that we are the perfect match."

He had heard the rumors and gossip from the upper echelons over the years, but out of respect for Xie Gui, he had always maintained a respectful facade.

Gu Yao has only one way to deal with such voices: use his strength to shut them up.

What could Xie Gui say?

He could never refuse Gu Yao.

He raised his hand and stroked the boy's soft hair, pulling him closer. His voice was deep and resonant as he buried his face in the boy's neck, "Kid, I'll give you your freedom, but never leave, or else, or else..."

In the end, Xie Gui's voice trembled, but he couldn't utter any threatening words. After hesitating for a long time, he finally exhaled a breath of stale air.

"If you dare to run, I'll break your legs and lock you up!"

Gu Yao chuckled softly upon hearing this, "Brother Xie, you're so cute! Don't you even know how to threaten someone?"

The boy stood up, a cold glint flashing in his light-colored eyes. He looked at Xie Gui seriously and said, "Brother Xie, you should have said that if I misbehave, you should break my arms and legs, lock me in a dark, sunless basement, give me no food or water, and make me your slave from now on..."

Xie Gui covered Gu Yao's lips with his hand and shook his head. "A Yao, you should know that I will not do that, and I will never allow anyone to lay a hand on you."

Gu Yao blinked, her bright eyes full of laughter. "Yes, I know you will always protect me."

Xie Gui pursed his lips, his eyes resolute. "Of course, I will always protect you!"

Gu Yao raised his hand and ruffled Xie Gui's smooth hair, feeling very satisfied with his dog training results.
