He watched as his hand touched the silver spear beside him.

Xia Wan quickly raised her hand to block in front of her, then stepped back, watching his hand movements warily.

"You, you, you, calm down! How do you know I've never left Lincheng?"

Cui Ziqi squinted at her, lightly tapping the silver spear shaft with his fingertips.

He didn't speak, as if waiting for Xia Wan to explain.

Xia Wan quickly spoke up, "Fifteen years ago, my mother and I did some charity work, and we happened to go to the Guimeng Welfare Home in Shui County."

"My mother, Zhou Ji, is a stunning beauty. Think back to the day I rescued you, wasn't there a beautiful woman who brought supplies to your orphanage?"

It seems that there is such a thing.

Cui Ziqi frowned slightly, the chaotic memories in his mind gradually becoming clearer as Xia Wan spoke.

"Because I was too tired from traveling during the day, I didn't go to the orphanage and slept in the hotel. When I woke up, it was already night. I couldn't sleep. When I was a child, I was very brave, so I went out in the dark to wander around. When I got to the back gate of the orphanage, I saw a group of children carrying you up the mountain. I was curious and quietly followed them."

"Then I saw them bury you in the ground, and I rescued you."

Cui Ziqi recalled what she said.

That night, when he was being carried out of the orphanage by those little beasts, he seemed to see a sneaky figure following him.

He pursed his lips, already believing her words eighty percent of the time.

He remained silent, staring at Xia Wan with an expressionless face.

[The male supporting character's "darkening" value has decreased by 3%, while his favorability has increased by 10%. Host, you're truly a top-tier con artist! Keep it up!]

Xia Wan gritted her teeth.

The thin shirt on my back dried and then got wet again.

She transmigrated into this book three years ago, so how does she know what happened fifteen years ago?

In the original book, the original owner's mother did visit Guimeng Welfare Home fifteen years ago, but the original owner did not go with her at that time.

The rest of the story was just something she made up.

Unexpectedly, Cui Ziqi actually believed it!

Lies can't stand up to scrutiny; she now has to dispel all of Cui Ziqi's suspicions!

She slammed her hand on the table and stood up abruptly, glaring angrily at Cui Ziqi.

“I recounted every detail of that night to you, and even showed you the butterfly birthmark on my shoulder. How can you still not believe me? I didn’t ask you to repay my life-saving debt, so why are you trying to distance yourself from me?”

"I treated you like a friend, but you treat me like a vengeful spirit! I'm not eating anymore, let's pretend we never met today!"

With that, Xia Wan stood up angrily, making a move to leave.

Cui Ziqi's face was extremely gloomy, as if he was about to explode at any moment.

Even the system was worried for Xia Wan.

Just as Xia Wan was walking past Cui Ziqi, Cui Ziqi suddenly grabbed her wrist.

Just as I was about to say something.

Xia Wan seemed startled, stumbled, and fell towards him.

Cui Ziqi instinctively reached out to catch her.

The woman pressed him against the back of the chair, and a soft touch came from her lips.

Their eyes met.

Xia Wan's pupils contracted sharply when she saw Cui Ziqi.

The next second, she was pushed away with great force and fell hard to the ground.

"Ouch!"

Her ass!

[Ding! Congratulations, host, on completing your second task!]

What's the point of congratulating us at this point?

The throbbing pain in her tailbone caused cold sweat to break out on her forehead.

It's just a kiss, right?

Why such a strong reaction?

She looked up guiltily.

But then they saw Cui Ziqi's fair face flush red, and his eyes, which were originally filled with murderous intent, were now filled with helplessness.

That pitiful look seemed to say, "How could she take advantage of him?"

Xia Wan was puzzled.

Why would a pervert who plays with imprisonment react so strongly to being kissed?

Although he didn't do anything after imprisoning the female protagonist in the book, it's impossible that he had no thoughts about that aspect at all.

It took Cui Ziqi a while to come to her senses and glare at Xia Wan.

There was no murderous intent in his eyes; it was more like a child's coquettishness.

"you……"

"Stop saying 'you, you, you'! Get me to the hospital quickly, I think I've fractured my coccyx!"

Xia Wan quickly changed the subject.

Cui Ziqi was filled with anger, but he forcefully suppressed it when he saw the cold sweat on Xia Wan's forehead.

He mentally prepared himself, then stepped forward and picked the person up in his arms.

His movements were stiff.

He stretched his hand forward and tilted his head back, as if afraid that Xia Wan would pounce on him and kiss him again.

Xia Wan, in a bizarre pose: ...

Two hours later.

Hospital.

After a series of examinations confirmed that her coccyx was not fractured, Xia Wan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Thankfully, it didn't crack. I heard that a serious injury to the coccyx can cause incontinence.

She didn't want to live such a humiliating life in the future!

Xia Wan walked down the hospital corridor, supporting her lower back. She glanced back at the man who had been following her at a safe distance.

His face had long since regained the cold indifference he had shown when they first met. Under the cold white light, his deep eyes churned with suppressed emotions that Xia Wan could not comprehend.

Sensing Xia Wan's gaze, Cui Ziqi immediately turned his head and glared at her warily.

Xia Wan: ……

"That was just an accident, you don't need to be so wary of me."

As if she had heard something funny, Cui Ziqi chuckled lightly.

"I'm not stupid. You deliberately fell on me, and you were looking at my mouth the whole time you fell!"

He spoke with a hint of resentment in his voice.

That woman kissed him on purpose!

Xia Wan touched her nose somewhat awkwardly. She wasn't a pervert!

Under Cui Ziqi's accusing gaze, the shame and anger of being seen through surged into her heart, and she decided to give up and do whatever she wanted.
