Su Niannian's lips parted slightly, about to ask something, but was suddenly sealed by Si Lijue's thin lips.

"Hmm..." Su Niannian felt her mind go blank, as if countless little white flowers were flying in front of her, and she had no idea how to react.

For some reason, she suddenly wanted to indulge herself and didn't want to stop his unreasonable behavior. She even felt a little smug and wanted to do something with him as a reward for herself after getting her marriage certificate.

Thinking this, she slowly closed her eyes, stretched out her hands and hugged Si Lijue's waist tightly, and then responded to him passionately.

Looking at her flushed cheeks and luscious red lips, Si Lijue finally couldn't resist kissing her lips.

With Su Niannian's cooperation, he kissed her even more forcefully, as if he wanted to devour her whole.

The two kissed so passionately that it made them dizzy, their lips drawn together like magnets, until they felt like they were about to suffocate, before reluctantly letting go of each other.

Si Lijue reached out and gently stroked his swollen red lips, saying affectionately, "Sit still, we're leaving now."

"Mmm!" This time, Su Niannian did not avoid her gaze, but instead met Si Lijue's eyes openly and nodded obediently.

"What a little devil!" Si Lijue took a deep breath, gritted his teeth, pulled half of his body out of the passenger seat, and closed the car door behind him.

He stood outside in the cold wind for a full two minutes before he calmed himself down and walked to the driver's seat.

If it weren't for his close friends insisting on inviting him over, he would have loved to go home right now and put this woman on his bed for a proper, intimate encounter.

Sitting in the passenger seat, Su Niannian looked at the anxious man beside her and felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.

She wasn't some naive young girl; she even had a child, so of course she understood that Si Lijue was sexually frustrated and was feeling suffocated with resentment.

Si Lijue glanced at the woman who was secretly laughing to herself, and asked knowingly, "Are you happy?"

"Hmm?!" Su Niannian nodded without thinking, then seemed to realize something was wrong and shook her head repeatedly.

Si Lijue didn't bother to expose her, and casually said, "I'm very happy too!" After saying that, he shifted his gaze from Su Niannian, staring intently ahead, no longer paying attention to the woman beside him, and pretending to be focused on driving.

Su Niannian didn't hear clearly and asked curiously, "What did you say?"

"I didn't say anything!" Si Lijue said without batting an eye, refusing to admit it.

Did he really not say anything?

Was I really hallucinating?

Su Niannian glanced sideways and saw that the person was focused on driving and didn't even spare her a glance. He didn't seem to be lying, so she concluded that there was something wrong with her ears and thought she would stop worrying about it.

She shifted her gaze to the car window, watching the scenery pass by, wondering what kind of party they were going to attend and who would be there.

Because she had a gentleman's agreement with Si Lijue, and because of Xi Bao as a link between them, she didn't want to hold Si Lijue back or embarrass him.

Thinking too much and worrying too much makes one feel overly nervous.

Si Lijue keenly noticed the barely perceptible unease and anxiety on Su Niannian's face.

So he turned his head slightly, gave him a gentle, reassuring look, and asked with concern, "Are you nervous?"

"Huh? No." Su Niannian felt ashamed that her thoughts had been seen through, and denied it outright for the sake of her pitiful self-esteem.

Si Lijue noticed her awkwardness, pretended not to know, and didn't press the matter further.

After a moment of silence, Su Niannian asked nervously, "What kind of party are we attending? Should we buy some gifts?"

The reason I asked this question was to indirectly find out who was at the party.

This way, she can prepare herself mentally in advance and avoid being flustered when she actually arrives at the party.

After all, given Si Lijue's status and position, the people who could get him to attend the gathering were not ordinary people.

Si Lijue said calmly, "No need, it's just a few friends getting together when they have nothing to do."

Taking her to meet his friends—is he introducing himself to them?

But she was only his temporary wife, and they would have to divorce in a year. Was it really necessary for him to introduce her to others?

Isn't he afraid that making this public knowledge will affect his future remarriage?

Su Niannian's pressure only increased, and she continued to press, "Did you specifically tell me what to do?"

Si Lijue looked ahead and said with a slight parting of his thin lips, "You don't need to do anything special. You just need to eat well, drink well, and have fun. As for other things, let them cater to you."

Upon hearing this, Su Niannian was taken aback at first, then looked at Si Lijue gratefully, nodded slightly, and said nothing more.

Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the most famous entertainment club in Kyoto.

This is a high-end club. The customers who come and go here are either prominent people or wealthy young people. Ordinary people cannot enter this club.

This place is a good place to relax and relieve boredom, but it is also a money pit that eats people alive. In one night, it is easy to spend the life savings of an ordinary person.

Although Su Niannian's family was quite wealthy, this was the first time she had ever set foot in such a place.

My already tense mood turned even more panicked at this moment.

Si Lijue parked the car, and two handsome young doormen ran over to open the car door and politely invited the people inside to get out.

These people moved with precision and were humble and polite; it was obvious they had received specialized training.

Si Lijue got out of the car amidst the respectful greeting of a doorman, but Su Niannian had never liked being served, especially by such a handsome man in front of her, which she felt was a desecration to them.

She was a person who loved beauty, so she naturally had a tolerance for people with outstanding looks. She hesitated for a moment when she saw the handsome man serving her and did not get off the bus immediately.

The doorman was also waiting for the people in the car to get off. Seeing that she hadn't moved for a long time, he looked up at her in surprise.

The sight of the two gazing at each other fell right into Si Lijue's eyes. His jaw muscles tightened suddenly, and his already stern face became even colder.

He walked to the passenger side door and sternly scolded the doorman: "You can't even get one person out of the car. You're useless. Go back to your supervisor and get punished."

"Yes, Mr. Si." The doorman lowered his head, not daring to breathe.

Seeing that the doorman was oblivious and standing there in the way, Si Lijue shouted impatiently, "Do I need to ask you to get lost?"

The doorman snapped back to reality and replied in a trembling voice, "I wouldn't dare, I'll leave right away!" With that, he turned and ran away as if fleeing for his life.

He didn't know what he had done wrong to displease the distinguished guest.

He was just a lowly worker with no connections, so naturally he didn't dare to argue with these wealthy and powerful guests and could only swallow his grievances silently.
