"Nangong Yi, what do you mean by that?"

Su Xiaoxiao didn't expect Nangong Yi to deny it. She looked angry, but she managed to suppress it.

"Grandpa is staying here tonight. I won't argue with you. You'd better explain yourself clearly."

"Su Xiaoxiao, I really underestimated you." A hint of sarcasm flashed in Nangong Yi's eyes.

He suddenly strode forward, grabbed Su Xiaoxiao's wrist, and used his tall and slender body to firmly pin her against the wall behind him.

"Su Xiaoxiao, do you think Grandpa is an idiot? He can't see through your terrible acting!"

"What did you say?"

Su Xiaoxiao's heart skipped a beat, and she stared at Nangong Yi with wide eyes in disbelief.

She was very careful in front of Nangong Cang today. Even when she went back to her room to take a shower, she made sure that he had already gone back to his room and lay down before she quietly slipped away.

But the anger that Nangong Yi felt at this moment, as if he were about to crush his own wrist bones, didn't seem like he was joking with her at all.

Su Xiaoxiao took a deep breath and said seriously, "Then what do you want? Do you still want us to become a real couple?"

Nangong Yi did not answer, but the anger in his eyes only increased.

"Su Xiaoxiao, stop pretending in front of me. Just because Grandpa was bribed by you doesn't mean I'll fall for your tricks! If you don't want your left hand to become like your right, you'd better immediately put away your scheming thoughts and behave yourself as the young mistress of Nangong."

"Nangong Yi, do you think I care about this 'young mistress' title?"

Su Xiaoxiao was startled by his aggressive gaze, and the grievances in her heart welled up at this moment, but she did not show her vulnerable side.

She glared fiercely at Nangong Yi before pushing him away with all her might.

“Nangong Yi, I admit that I was out of my mind before, which is why I clung to you like a lapdog. But on the night we got our marriage certificate, I tasted the ‘karma’ and I finally understood. I, Su Xiaoxiao, will no longer like you, Nangong Yi, nor will I care about anything from your Nangong family.”

Su Xiaoxiao had no memory of the night Su Xiaoxiao got her marriage certificate. She always felt that something must have happened that night, otherwise how could she have suddenly entered Su Xiaoxiao's body?

Or perhaps, the real Su Xiaoxiao is no longer alive.

"Nangong Yi, I will no longer entertain you!"

Nangong Yi was momentarily speechless at Su Xiaoxiao's overly serious expression.

He recalled his grandfather's words of advice, and his cold eyes narrowed again. The corners of his slightly pursed lips twitched slightly, revealing a half-smile.

"What...what are you going to do?"

Su Xiaoxiao felt flustered under his gaze, and she cautiously backed away uneasy.

However, when her heels touched the edge of the bed, she suddenly lost her balance and fell heavily onto the large bed behind her.

She tried to get up quickly, but it was too late.

Nangong Yi's tall figure quickly loomed down on her, trapping her between the bed and his arms, leaving her unable to struggle.

The sudden intimate contact left Su Xiaoxiao's mind blank for a moment.

A blush spread across her face in an instant, and her heart pounded wildly.

"I...I'm warning you not to do anything reckless."

"..."

Looking at Su Xiaoxiao's overly shy reaction, Nangong Yi was puzzled as to why she would react with such panic, like an innocent young girl.
