Chen Jiayi reached out and took the initiative to put her arm around Shen Jialiang's neck.

Her breathing was a little erratic, and she looked at Shen Jialiang in front of her with a dazed expression.

“Shen… Shen Jialiang.”

Chen Jiayi could still recognize who the person in front of her was.

She felt as if her brain was being controlled.

He couldn't resist kissing Shen Jialiang's crimson lips.

Shen Jialiang's eyes grew even deeper, and his throat bobbed.

"Chen Jiayi, do you know what you're doing right now?"

Chen Jiayi nodded, then shook her head.

"I feel so bad... Waaah..."

"Please."

The usually rational Shen Jialiang crumbled instantly upon hearing Chen Jiayi's two simple words, "Please."

...

The next day, after Chen Jiayi regained consciousness, she realized what had happened and immediately felt a headache coming on.

Shen Jialiang opened the door and walked in. Seeing that Chen Jiayi was awake, he pursed his lips.

"I'm sorry, I'll take responsibility for what happened last night."

Chen Jiayi, who was already overwhelmed, felt like her whole body was about to crack when she heard those words.

She bit her lip. "I'm not dressed yet. Why don't you go out first?"

Shen Jialiang did not refuse, but simply placed the food he had bought on the bed and quietly left.

Chen Jiayi silently breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Shen Jialiang leave.

Actually, she felt the effects of the medication had almost worn off not long last night.

But seeing Shen Jialiang acting recklessly, Chen Jiayi's heart broke.

She was unsure how to face him. She finally mustered the courage to tell him that she was sober, but Shen Jialiang shattered her words.

Chen Jiayi quickly lifted her legs to get out of bed, but her legs felt weak and trembled slightly.

Her lips twitched, and she used the bed frame to get up and look for her clothes.

Chen Jiayi originally wanted to take out the clothes from yesterday to wear, but found that they were damaged.

She was a little confused, but then she saw that Shen Jialiang had brought in a bag with clothes inside. When she opened it, she found that it was her size.

She has no clothes to wear right now, and doesn't know if Shen Jialiang bought them for her, but she'll put them on for now.

The cheongsam that Shen Jialiang bought fits Chen Jiayi perfectly.

The only issue is that the waist size is a bit large, but that just happens to accentuate Chen Jiayi's perfect figure, which balances it out.

She opened the door and looked at Shen Jialiang with some embarrassment.

"I'm all better now."

Chen Jiayi walked into the house and sat down in a chair, feeling somewhat lost.

Shen Jialiang followed Chen Jiayi in and then quietly closed the door.

He looked at Chen Jiayi, who seemed a little embarrassed, and spoke in a gentle voice.

"What happened last night may have already spread, but don't worry, I will take all the responsibility upon myself."

"I'll take you home first, then go home this afternoon to tidy up, and then come to your door to propose marriage, how about that?"

"How about I give you 18,000 yuan as a bride price? Plus a five-wheeled motorcycle, a radio, a house, a car, and some gold jewelry. What do you say?"

Chen Jiayi was a little dumbfounded, and she exclaimed "Ah!"

Seeing this, Shen Jialiang immediately handed the food in front of him to Chen Jiayi.

"Have something to eat, you must be hungry. I'll take you home!"

Chen Jiayi was indeed hungry, and she subconsciously obeyed the other person's instructions, opened the package, and started eating.

As they ate, Chen Jiayi realized what Shen Jialiang had said.

She only realized it a beat too late.

"Sinking..."

Chen Jiayi paused. She originally wanted to call her Teacher Shen, but after what happened last night, it would feel a little strange to call her Teacher Shen again.

Therefore, Chen Jiayi addressed the other person by their full name.

“Shen Jialiang, your family probably doesn’t know that I’m divorced. Although your aunt and uncle are cheerful, it doesn’t mean they can accept me marrying into the family with this background.”

"Besides, what happened last night was an accident. If it weren't for you, I might have been taken away by Zhao Xiaobao. Shen Jialiang, you don't need to take it to heart."

Chen Jiayi felt that facing rumors about not being married was better than facing rumors about being married.

Marriage is like a shackle, locking women in place.

Shen Jialiang had considered the possibility that Chen Jiayi might disagree, but he did not expect Chen Jiayi to refuse so decisively.

"Jiajia, I want to marry you not because of what happened last night. It's because I've always liked you. Although what happened last night was an accident, I want to marry you and do this to you legitimately."

Shen Jialiang's intense gaze and blunt words left Chen Jiayi speechless.

She coughed several times before she calmed down.

"Shen Jialiang, you..."

"Bang bang bang!"

"Open the door!"

Hearing the familiar voice at the door, Chen Jiayi paused.

Shen Jialiang walked to the door to open it, and as soon as he opened it, the person outside punched him.

Chen Qiming was furious.

Little did he know that his daughter would be plotted against!

When Chen Qiming opened the door and saw a man, he immediately punched him.

As for what the other person looks like, Chen Qiming hasn't seen it clearly yet.

Upon seeing Shen Jialiang being beaten, Chen Jiayi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Dad, stop hitting him!"

Upon hearing his daughter's voice, Chen Qiming immediately stopped what he was doing.

He captured the other person and then looked at Chen Jiayi with a suspicious gaze.

"Jiayi, I heard you were set up... Is it this kid?"

Chen Jiayi felt a little embarrassed and cleared her throat.

"Dad, can you see who he is?"

Chen Qiming was followed by Lan Meixuan, Aunt Wang, and some other people.
