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

Zhu Tingyue was satisfied, it felt so good! She wanted to do it again! But Shen Yanqiu had already turned over and was ignoring her!

"Shall I take you to clean up?" Zhu Tingyue said gently afterward.

Shen Yanqiu couldn't quite describe his feelings at that moment. It was a mix of novelty and unfamiliarity, excitement and not unacceptable. These mixed emotions made him appear unusually silent.

He chose to ignore Zhu Tingyue's deliberate attempts to be friendly. Hmph, he now understood: all men are the same, not a single one is good!

Zhu Tingyue didn't get a reply, but she wasn't discouraged. After all, she had treated Shen Yanqiu the same way before.

Following the example Shen Yanqiu used to do for her, she cleaned up Shen Yanqiu before holding her and falling asleep.

However, Shen Yanqiu tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep.

Zhu Tingyue, who was beside him, had already fallen into a sweet dream, and her peaceful sleeping face was presented to Shen Yanqiu so close.

I used to gaze at her as she fell asleep, just like I do now, and I still do now. The only difference is our relationship.

As long as Zhu Tingyue loves him deeply, he will do anything, no matter the cost or the task, without complaint or regret.

Shen Yanqiu couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke Zhu Tingyue's delicate cheek, as if he were touching a rare treasure. Feeling the delicate touch from his fingertips, his heart trembled slightly.

Finally, unable to contain his surging emotions, he leaned down and gently kissed Zhu Tingyue's face.

This kiss was like a fleeting, beautiful ephemera blooming quietly in the night sky; no one knew of its existence, except for Shen Yanqiu, who buried this deep affection deep in his heart.

After doing all this, Shen Yanqiu closed her eyes slowly with satisfaction, and gradually drifted into sleep with a heart full of joy and longing.

The next day was indeed cloudy.

It was Zhu Tingyue who woke Shen Yanqiu up; she was lightly pecking her cheek.

Shen Yanqiu opened his sleepy eyes, his consciousness not yet fully returned. He subconsciously stopped Zhu Tingyue and pulled her into his arms.

As he pulled his arm back halfway, he suddenly remembered what happened last night, and a wave of shame belatedly washed over him. In an instant, his face turned bright red.

Zhu Tingyue watched his face change little by little, her eyes and brows full of smiles.

"Zhu Tingyue!"

Shen Yanqiu's voice, filled with shyness and annoyance, sounded like a coquettish tantrum to Zhu Tingyue.

She suppressed her obvious smile, leaving only a slight upturn at the corners of her mouth, and feigned concern: "Hey, I'm here! What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

It would have been better if she hadn't brought it up, because the moment she did, Shen Yanqiu's face continued to heat up, and even her glaring eyes seemed to be conveying some kind of message.

Zhu Tingyue's breathing suddenly became erratic and out of control, and her body also quietly underwent changes.

Shen Yanqiu realized that his anger had no effect on Zhu Tingyue and was somewhat discouraged, but then he noticed the look Zhu Tingyue was giving him.

Those clear eyes instantly darkened, gleaming with a sinister light. As the former "Shen Yanqiu," he clearly knew what was going on.

He raised his foot and kicked the person who had snuggled up to him from under the covers far away.

All that could be heard was a scream of "Ah!" from Zhu Tingyue.

She hadn't expected Shen Yanqiu to kick her off the bed so ruthlessly; Shen Yanqiu hadn't expected that her instinctive kick would cause her to fall!

Upon hearing Zhu Tingyue's cry, Shen Yanqiu threw off the covers and reached out to pull her up.

Zhu Tingyue also scrambled to her feet, and immediately saw her former body before her eyes. The scene was both visceral and stimulating, and she felt herself losing control again!

Shen Yanqiu also realized this. She hadn't felt it before, but now she felt a chill all over her body.

Unsurprisingly, he saw that familiar darkness in Zhu Tingyue's eyes again! Pervert! Scoundrel!

He cursed Zhu Tingyue in his heart, but his hands moved quickly, pulling the blanket over himself to block Zhu Tingyue's lecherous gaze.

Now, Zhu Tingyue could see nothing, but Shen Yanqiu's anger was obvious.

Zhu Tingyue felt guilty. She had just finished sleeping with him yesterday, and now she wanted him again today. Moreover, she had been kicked off the bed. She lowered her head and dared not look at Shen Yanqiu.

Logically, she shouldn't feel anything in her own body, so why is she acting so impulsively? Zhu Tingyue felt the reason wasn't hers.

Perhaps it's because of Shen Yanqiu's... health?

Once she understood this, she dared to look Shen Yanqiu in the eye.

Good heavens, it's clearly his body acting up, but now he's blaming everything on me? It's clearly his body that's having issues with me, yet he's making it seem like I have ulterior motives towards him, turning the tables on him!

The resentment in her eyes was so obvious that Shen Yanqiu couldn't ignore it even if she wanted to.

Why is Zhu Tingyue so self-righteous? Doesn't she want to say anything to me? I'm the one who's really at a disadvantage, okay?

Why are you looking at me like that?

Helpless, Zhu Tingyue just stared at him without saying a word, so Shen Yanqiu had no choice but to ask her.

Zhu Tingyue had just gone through a bit of a mental struggle. Although Shen Yanqiu's body had those inexplicable feelings for her, she was the one in control of that body now!

If we question Shen Yanqiu now, will he also realize this and thus take the blame upon himself?

Faced with Shen Yanqiu's questioning, Zhu Tingyue smiled and tried to take his arm, but he brushed her off. Fine, if he doesn't want me to touch him, then I won't. Anyway, I already did the really outrageous things yesterday.

"You're so beautiful, what's wrong with me looking at you? What's wrong with that? You don't want me to see you? Then who do you want to see you?"

Zhu Tingyue has learned how to turn the tables and shift the blame!

Shen Yanqiu was shocked by how thick-skinned Zhu Tingyue was! No wonder she was Zhu Mingchuan's daughter; her thick skin was just like his!

"You...you're talking nonsense!" He didn't have that kind of thick skin; last night, his words, "It's too dark, I'm scared," had already used up all his courage.

Zhu Tingyue was fearless and even threatened Shen Yanqiu: "Shen Yanqiu, I'm warning you, if you dare to let anyone else see you, I will definitely not let you off! You are only allowed to see me!"

To Shen Yanqiu, her threat didn't sound like a threat at all; rather, it was an expression of sovereignty and a sign of her deep affection for him.

She only wanted to see herself! This was Zhu Tingyue's unique and exclusive affection for him!

Zhu Tingyue's possessiveness made him feel very safe.

In an instant, his anger vanished, replaced by a warmth, a satisfaction welling up from the bottom of his heart, filling his entire being, making him feel as if he were floating on clouds, utterly bewildered.

Zhu Tingyue watched his changes with wide eyes, not understanding what had happened in such a short moment. It seemed that Shen Yanqiu had imagined something she didn't know.

But who cares! As long as he doesn't keep going forward.
