On the day of her return to China, she was tied up and coaxed by the richest man to get her marriage

Yu Jinzhao's breath hitched.

His movements were so light that she barely felt them.

She felt a jolt in her chest, and the image of him pinning her down, pressing against her every inch, suddenly flashed through her mind...

Even though she didn't see it clearly because she was nervous at the time.

But the violently pounding heartbeat as he gripped her waist, and the absurd, tingling sensation of his hot breath all over her body, were exceptionally clear to her, as if her body had been scorched.

She felt a warmth rising in her chest, quickly clearing her mind of the impure thoughts. She swallowed hard, lowered her eyes, and spoke calmly and earnestly.

"Your current condition is not suitable for strenuous exercise."

Si Qing paused slightly, his gaze reflecting her suddenly flushed cheeks, making her eyes appear even more tender.

His Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily, his pupils darkened, and he twitched his lips slightly, letting out a soft, deep hum.

This hum clearly carried a hint of ambiguity, as if it were hinting at something, or perhaps it was just a casual interjection.

Yu Jinzhao felt his fingers, which were holding her hair, move slightly. She slowly wrapped a strand of hair around his fingertips, the end of the hair brushing against the corner of her eye...

She shrank her neck from the tickling sensation and looked at him again, puzzled.

A glimmer of light suddenly flashed in the depths of his dark eyes, like an aurora bursting forth from a black hole in the universe.

In an instant, she felt a sense of awe and her eyelashes fluttered. When she tried to focus her gaze, he lowered his hand, turned around, and sat down on the edge of the bed.

He crossed his long legs, slowly smoothed his bathrobe, looking somewhat sleepy, and then took out a cigarette and lit it.

As the smoke dissipated, his eyes remained cold and unwavering, devoid of any lust. Paired with the black Buddhist beads on his wrist, he gave the impression of a Buddhist monk who had seen through the illusions of the world.

cough!

Clearly, she was simply blinded by his good looks and actually thought he really wanted to continue the relationship...

Yu Jinzhao withdrew his gaze, calmed his erratic breathing, and secretly cursed himself for daring to covet the male beauty of the Living Yama.

I know you're scared.

He flicked his cigarette ash and suddenly spoke.

His clear, moonlit eyes looked up at her, catching a fleeting hint of annoyance in her bright eyes, like a cat about to puff up its fur.

His gaze deepened. "As long as we're husband and wife, this kind of thing is bound to happen sooner or later. I can give you time to prepare."

There was some distance between them, but when he spoke, his deep, soothing voice, like a silken thread flowing from his lips, pierced the air and gripped her heartstrings.

Yu Jinzhao was slightly out of breath.

It's hard to understand how Si Qing can be so aloof and detached, yet his every word and action exudes such sexual tension...

It makes you want to have wild thoughts one second, and then instantly return to rationality the next.

"Although I really want to continue with you..."

He gave an awkward laugh and continued,

"But for your health's sake... let's not do it."

When the girl spoke, her bright fox-like eyes curved into crescents, and her lips took on the same shape as her eyes.

Delicate and obedient.

She was completely different from the bright and arrogant woman who had just been treating him, engaging in heated debates.

He took a deep drag of his cigarette, then suddenly didn't want to say a word to her.

The room instantly turned cold.

Yu Jinzhao watched him puff away on his cigarette, the smoke swirling around his dark, almond-shaped eyes. She couldn't see the expression on his face, but she could keenly sense that he was very unhappy.

She was somewhat confused; he had said before that he wouldn't fulfill his responsibilities as a husband to her.

So when I asked her if she wanted to continue, wasn't I hoping she would politely refuse?

He should be happy that I said what he wanted to hear!

After a moment of silence, she suddenly realized that he had consummated the marriage with her because he didn't want to owe her a favor after she saved Madam Si, and also because he felt that she was lusting after his body.

In his view, this was his way of repaying her for saving his mother.

Now that she can cure his headaches, and since he is so calculating, shouldn't we be able to settle our past grievances now?

That evens out!

From now on, she won't have to be so careful around him anymore, which is so great.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his lips, and he spoke directly.

“Master Si, I saved your mother that day, and she gave me the medical expenses... so we're even.”

As she spoke, afraid he might interrupt, she continued.

"Once I cure your headache, can we call it even if I make you my bodyguard before?"
