He's spoiled rotten; that wolf cub knows how to flirt and be affectionate.

After their relationship was made public, what Qu Yi couldn't stand the most was that Bai Yan wanted to kiss her anytime and anywhere, and she would only restrain herself a little in public.

"Um..."

Bai Yan pulled away from her lips and pinched her chin: "Continue, I love to hear it."

Qu Yi glanced at him but didn't say anything.

Bai Yan smiled and intertwined his fingers with hers. As they kissed, they found themselves in front of a huge floor-to-ceiling window. Behind them were dozens of high-rise buildings, and the glass was so clean it seemed empty.

He slammed her fingers against the glass, the cool touch seeping into her bones through the back of her hand.

The two kissed high in the sky, passionately and purely.

"Can I, as...an elder, ask you to...shut up?" Qu Yi turned her head away, breathing softly, her words somewhat broken.

Bai Yan chuckled: "Is it because of your status as an aunt? Have you ever seen an aunt being forced to kiss someone, huh?"

He seemed to be aroused by this title with some indescribable excitement, and his eyes brightened slightly.

"Grandma, give me another kiss, then I'll go to work."

"Shut up!" Qu Yi covered his mouth, looking somewhat embarrassed.

She still doesn't quite know how to handle these kinds of situations.

Bai Yan pulled her hand away, but not completely. His thin lips caressed her fingertips. He parted his lips slightly, took her warm fingertips into his mouth, and gently licked them with his tongue. His eyes were tinged with a faint red, and his narrow eyes contained a bewitching power.

boom--

Qu Yi opened her eyes wide and abruptly pulled her hand back.

Bai Yan stopped teasing her and obediently returned to his desk.

After a moment, he rested his chin on his hand and looked at her. Seeing that she had returned to her usual self, he smiled.

Qu Yi suddenly turned around and saw his expression; she could clearly sense his pleasure.

"Bai Yan".

"how?"

"If you were to die, how do you think you might die?"

The question came abruptly, catching Bai Yan off guard. He was momentarily stunned, but quickly recovered and asked in return, "What do you think?"

Qu Yi: "You made too many enemies, and were killed by them?"

Bai Yan shook his head.

"Accidental death?"

Bai Yan thought for a moment and said, "It should be expected."

Qu Yi's pupils contracted; this person had indeed anticipated his own death.

Bai Yan said slowly, "I might commit suicide."

Qu Yi: "Have you ever thought about suicide?"

Bai Yan: "It's not that I want to, it's that I have no choice."

His answer surprised her.

She hadn't fully recovered by evening.

"Don't you want to sleep yet?"

Bai Yan's voice rang out from the doorway.

Qu Yi sat up and realized that Bai Yan had opened the door without her noticing.

Ever since he first opened the door wanting to sleep together, and Qu Yi didn't refuse, he would almost always come over or take her to his place whenever he wasn't busy.

Qu Yi: "Thinking about something."

Bai Yan lay down behind her, his arm around her waist.

"That question from today?"

"……Um."

Bai Yan let out a helpless laugh: "Why are you thinking about this?"

"I don't understand."

"You don't need to understand."

She remained silent for a while before he spoke again: "What kind of person am I in your investigation?"

Qu Yi thought for a moment: "Ruthless, vicious, and incredibly wealthy."

Bai Yan was about to bite her when he suddenly heard the last description and burst out laughing.

She came just to be the last one there.

"I find this world extremely boring. Everything is boring—people are boring, things are boring. It's all the same few tricks over and over again. Some people have returned because of money, and others are just hypocritically flattering me. But being killed by those idiots is impossible; that would be a stain on my life. As for accidents… I prefer to watch them happily jumping around, thinking they've succeeded, only to find it's all for nothing."
