If we swapped lives, I'd be the CEO and you'd take care of the kids.

Shen Yanqiu felt a warmth in her heart, as if a warm current was slowly flowing through her.

His eyes gradually moistened, and his eye sockets turned slightly red. The glistening tears welled up in his eyes, as if they might fall at any moment.

At that moment, the emotions in his heart surged like a tidal wave, making him unable to control himself.

Shen Yanqiu held Zhu Tingyue tightly in his arms, so excited that he didn't know what to say.

After a long while, a deep voice finally rang out: "Zhu Tingyue, I love you! Forever and ever!"

These words seemed to have been suppressed in his heart for a long time, and now that he had finally said them, he felt extremely relieved.

He used to think that whether or not someone loved another was a personal matter, and whether or not they expressed it was also a personal matter!

Now it dawned on him: those who are insecure and anxious always doubt their own worthiness of love. Those who are loved also don't feel truly valued. Therefore, love should be spoken aloud!

Zhu Tingyue looked up and gently kissed his lips, her eyes filled with tenderness, more affectionate than any other pair of eyes Shen Yanqiu had ever seen.

"I love you too!"

Zhu Tingyue's voice was very soft, but Shen Yanqiu quickly caught it. He had never felt that the language in the world was so beautiful.

Every word Zhu Tingyue uttered lingered in his heart, becoming incredibly precious.

He deepened the kiss, which was devoid of any desire and was simply a pure and beautiful kiss between lovers.

Zhu Tingyue did not refuse; she was even more proactive than Shen Yanqiu.

She put her arm around Shen Yanqiu's shoulder and pulled him closer. His long, curled eyelashes trembled, and his eyes, which he occasionally opened, were filled with a dreamy look.

His hot breath sprayed on Zhu Tingyue's neck, causing her to shiver.

Zhu Tingyue looked at this face that she knew so well and was momentarily dazed. So this is how beautiful and alluring the expression on this face could be at a time like this!

Zhu Tingyue's love is flamboyant and passionate, and so are her kisses!

Her lips were warm, as if carrying an electric current, and a tingling sensation gradually rose in the places she kissed.

Shen Yanqiu was starting to feel the strain; her head was spinning, and her face was flushed from lack of breathing. Her heart was pounding so hard that it was almost audible to both of them.

"Zhu...Tingyue, I...I can't take it anymore!"

Shen Yanqiu squeezed out a few words, and to Zhu Tingyue, the voice was even more alluring than when she was a woman.

Her lips parted from his, yet remained very close, their breaths mingling.

She whispered in Shen Yanqiu's ear, "How can a man say he can't? Shen Yanqiu, you can!"

Her words made Shen Yanqiu's face turn redder and redder. He wanted to do it too, but the facts were right in front of him!

When I kissed Zhu Tingyue before, I wanted to weld her lips to mine. Now that it's my turn, I'm so careless!

He really needs to work out. This is just a kiss; what will he do if he has to do more strenuous physical labor?

Without giving him much time to think, Zhu Tingyue kissed him again, grinding and sucking, returning all the things he had done to her before.

"I really... can't take it anymore!"

Shen Yanqiu gasped for breath, trying to pull Zhu Tingyue away. His eyes were filled with desire from being kissed, which made Zhu Tingyue's heart flutter.

Noticing her change, Shen Yanqiu's heart tightened. She knew her own body's condition all too well!

Zhu Tingyue's body couldn't handle him before, and now that it's his turn, he has to endure Zhu Tingyue's unleashed beastly nature. This isn't going to be good!

I'm not ready yet, and I absolutely cannot continue tonight!

"I...I want to go home!"

He spoke these words with trembling lips, not daring to look at Zhu Tingyue, for fear of further provoking her anger.

Zhu Tingyue was breathing heavily, her body still not calmed down, and she held the person tightly, feeling the softness in her arms.

"Go back where? Isn't this your home?"

Pretending to be ignorant when you know the truth! So even if Zhu Tingyue turned into a man, it would be the same!

"Is my presence here a bad influence?"

He belatedly realized that he was still "Zhu Tingyue"! If he were discovered leaving "Shen Yanqiu's" room tomorrow morning, it would definitely be big news in Jiangcheng!

Zhu Tingyue patted his shoulder and said nonchalantly, "What are you afraid of? If I lose face, it's my face that's being humiliated. What does it have to do with you, Shen Yanqiu!"

Shen Yanqiu hesitated for a long time before saying, "What about Mom and Dad? You know how they treat me!"

These words struck a chord with Zhu Tingyue.

I have to tell my parents the truth tomorrow. If I add this to the story, I don't know if their fragile hearts can handle it!

Zhu Tingyue asked him, "Then what should we do?"

"Perhaps I should go back!" Shen Yanqiu replied after thinking it over.

Zhu Tingyue did not answer immediately.

To be honest, Zhu Tingyue also wanted to go home with him, back to the home where her parents were!

"How about we go together?" Zhu Tingyue suggested tentatively.

Shen Yanqiu was shocked by her words. Wasn't it inappropriate to be together so late at night? Besides, did it make a difference whether they were together at the Zhu family's house or the Shen family's house?

Zhu Tingyue pouted, her dissatisfaction evident.

Shen Yanqiu nodded without any hesitation: "Okay, okay, let's do it together. But it's too late today, let's tell Mom and Dad tomorrow!"

Zhu Tingyue immediately agreed, saying she would do anything to go home.

Moreover, Shen Yanqiu is right. Let Mom and Dad get some rest tonight; tomorrow probably won't be easy.

Without hesitation, Zhu Tingyue grabbed Shen Yanqiu and headed out the door.

Shen Yanqiu looked at her in surprise: "Why don't you go check downstairs to see if anyone is there? What if someone sees you?"

Zhu Tingyue was completely oblivious to this: "So what if I see it? Do I, Zhu Tingyue, need to tell others what I want to do?"

Shen Yanqiu didn't mean that: "No, it's bad! I am Shen Yanqiu, and I'm an illegitimate child! How can an illegitimate child be worthy of you..."

“You are Shen Yanqiu, and I only love Shen Yanqiu. It has nothing to do with identity, status, or power. Is there any other problem?” Zhu Tingyue interrupted him.

Shen Yanqiu's heart was racing uncontrollably from her repeated sweet words tonight, and at this moment, a feeling of soreness filled his entire heart.

Zhu Tingyue loves Shen Yanqiu! She only loves Shen Yanqiu! She only loves him as a person!

Shen Yanqiu's eyes reddened again. He whispered in Zhu Tingyue's ear, "Shen Yanqiu only loves Zhu Tingyue!" Then he took her hand and opened the door.

As soon as the two opened the door, they saw Shen Yanzhen standing outside. He stood there like a pillar, his hand still raised in mid-air, as if he were about to knock.

Upon seeing the two people, he awkwardly lowered his hand, scratched his head, and realized that the two had been in the room together!

Together! Forever!

What happened? Shen Yanqiu and Chen Can? And Zhu Tingyue?

"asshole!"

With a loud shout, his fist came crashing down on Zhu Tingyue.
