Reborn with the ability to read minds, I became a heartthrob.

"Think carefully about what I said, and hurry up and break up with that Jiang Shiyue, otherwise I don't know what I might do." Shen Nanzhou slowly picked up a strand of Zhou Liwan's hair and gently sniffed it.

Zhou Liwan, feeling ashamed and indignant, pulled her hair back and glared at the man without saying a word.

Shen Nanzhou wasn't angry; he just smiled contentedly, a lazy and carefree smile: "Good boy~ Don't disappoint me."

"Let go of me!" Zhou Liwan pushed Shen Nanzhou away forcefully, not wanting to stay there for another second, and turned to leave.

But the calm-looking man outside the door made her freeze in place.

he······

How did I end up here?

Shen Nanzhou had anticipated Zhou Liwan's reaction, so he lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "Do you think he'll still be with you after seeing us like this?"

After saying that, he glanced triumphantly at Jiang Shiyue outside the door once more.

Then he simply opened the door and saw Zhou Liwan out.

"Officer Jiang, long time no see." His tone was roguish and unrestrained.

Zhou Liwan clenched her fists tightly, not wanting to look at Shen Nanzhou again, and ran away.

Jiang Shiyue watched the person run away, but did not immediately chase after them. He just stared at Shen Nanzhou and said, "Doing this will only hurt her."

After saying that, he ran after them.

Shen Nanzhou was left leaning against the door frame, his head down, slowly touching the lingering lingering warmth on his lips. He should have guessed that he wasn't a good person the first time she heard about his past.

Since she's entered her own world, she shouldn't expect to leave easily.

After leaving the restaurant, Zhou Liwan didn't get into the car, but kept running along the path.

It's as if this way she can stop thinking about all the messy things that happened today.

I ran and ran, and there was no one by the roadside, only the winding streetlights ahead, dim and quiet.

Finally, Zhou Liwan couldn't run anymore, so she squatted down, hugging her knees and burying her face in her legs.

Jiang Shiyue followed and saw the little girl from afar. She looked just like she did when she was little, pitiful and helpless, which made him want to protect her without thinking.

Jiang Shiyue slowly walked over, without saying a word, but slowly squatted down and gently patted Zhou Liwan's head.

Silent companionship is the most reassuring. After feeling that strength, Zhou Liwan threw herself into Jiang Shiyue's arms, feeling wronged.

Choking back tears, she said, "Brother Tiger Tooth, I really don't know why this happened... What should I do!"

Jiang Shiyue gently patted her back: "This world is made up of all sorts of fantastical events. It's normal that you can't accept it right away. So you just need some time to process it, rather than you being able to understand it in this instant."

"My mind is in a mess right now, and I really don't know how to face him."

Jiang Shiyue: "Then don't face it. Relax for a while and try to avoid him."

Zhou Liwan then replied, "But I don't want to go back to the Zhou family. To me, that place is just another hellhole."

Jiang Shiyue really wanted Zhou Liwan to live with him, but their relationship was just a charade, and he wasn't in a position to make such a suggestion.

On the contrary: "Actually, you can avoid him at the old house, right? Besides, your maternal grandfather is there. Under his watchful eye, he wouldn't dare to do anything to you. He'll at least consider the old man's presence."

Zhou Liwan thought about it and agreed. Her maternal grandfather was still in the old house. If he dared to do anything reckless, she would call for her grandfather.

After Jiang Shiyue chatted with Zhou Liwan for a while, Zhou Liwan was obviously much better. Seeing that it was already very late, he said, "All the dishes have been served, and they're probably cold by now. Let's have the kitchen reheat them. You hardly ate anything today."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Liwan's stomach rumbled a few times in perfect cooperation. Zhou Liwan blushed and let Jiang Shiyue pull her back into the private room of the private kitchen.

It seems that Shen Nanzhou has already left by this time; he must have come here only to do that thing.

Zhou Liwan pursed her lips, irritably stuffed the heated food into her mouth, and chewed it fiercely.

Jiang Shiyue looked at her with amusement at her bitter and resentful expression, and then licked a little more food out of her bowl.

Watching her stuff those vegetables into her round, bulging mouth, she looked as adorable as a squirrel.

Crimson lips...

The erotic scene from the private room suddenly reappeared in my mind.

A tall man and a petite girl, they embraced and kissed passionately, their breaths mingling intimately.

The murmurs uttered between sucking strokes were more exhilarating than any aphrodisiac at that moment.

To be honest, it's impossible not to feel sad, but I'm destined to keep these feelings buried in my heart.

He didn't want to put any more pressure on her.

Even if you want to confess your feelings, you should wait until everything has settled down.

An hour later, Zhou Liwan slumped into a chair, clutching her stomach, and said, "I'm so full, but the food here is really good."

"Then we'll come here often in the future." Jiang Shiyue handed Zhou Liwan a tissue so she could wipe her mouth, and then calmly tidied herself up. "Sit here for a while. If you're too full, don't rush to stand up. We'll go back later."

"That's exactly what I was thinking too. You'd better watch me next time, I can't let it be like today again, it's too uncomfortable." Zhou Liwan nodded, touched her belly and said speechlessly.

Jiang Shiyue smiled but didn't say anything. He knew that eating like this would make Zhou Liwan feel uncomfortable, but it was because this way she could clear her mind and stop thinking about those things.

So just treat it as an occasional indulgence; it won't have any major impact.

Besides, he's keeping it under control; although he feels full, it won't hurt his stomach too much.

The girl doesn't eat much on weekdays; she has a small stomach, so she doesn't actually eat that much.

After resting for a while, Jiang Shiyue paid and took the people away, but instead of getting into the car immediately, he slowly walked around the mountain road.

Just treat it as a way to aid digestion.

On a cool autumn evening, the moon shines through the branches in the distance, creating a unique and picturesque scene.

Mr. Wang took a spare jacket for Zhou Liwan from the car, so she didn't feel cold while walking.

So before I knew it, it was quite late.

When the two parted ways and returned to the old house, it was already midnight.

Zhou Liwan's expression was no longer as relaxed and carefree as before, and she walked straight towards her room.

After washing up, I went straight to sleep.

Just as Jiang Shiyue said, during this period, he made sure to avoid spending any of his time with Shen Nanzhou.

Even if you live in the same house, it's still easy to avoid each other because you're very familiar with each other's habits.

The police station has been very busy these past few days, with everyone searching for the suspect in the body found in the mountains.

Seeing everyone so busy and overwhelmed, I couldn't just sit idly by.

Although solving the case won't be of much help, logistics still need to keep up.
