He casually tossed the few photos he had shown into the trash can and said nonchalantly, "These photos are all handpicked by me. They're all incredibly talented people, handsome and dignified, none of them inferior to me. Of course, if you don't like any of them, I'll find you others."

"Brother Xun..." Xia Bingqing panicked, pushing his arm away, "I don't like anyone else, I don't want anyone else, I only want you! I want your heart!"

"I can give you anything except this."

His heart had long since turned to ashes in that fire, going with Yi Yi.

Seeing that she couldn't persuade Mu Nanxun, Xia Bingqing got angry, stomped her foot, and ran out.

Mu Nanxun leaned back and rubbed his temples. Memories of Yi Yi flooded his mind like a tidal wave.

He took out a large, fluffy, bright red fox tail from his pocket. It was the tail that Yi Yi had lost in the jungle. After it broke off from Yi Yi, the tail became barely thicker than a finger. He always carried it with him, taking it out to look at it whenever he missed Yi Yi.

Xia Bingqing returned to her room, feeling uneasy no matter what she thought about it.

Brother Xun, he actually introduced her to a boyfriend! He'd rather push her into another man's arms than accept her!

No, she had to go talk to Brother Xun again and tell him to stop arranging these things for her and not to become his sister or be included in his family genealogy.

Passing by the study, a strong smell of alcohol wafted out.

Has Brother Xun been drinking?

Xia Bingqing, who was standing at the door, paused and looked inside through the crack in the door.

Mu Nanxun seemed to have drunk too much, and was dozing off on the sofa, with several empty bottles scattered on the floor. She pushed open the door, locked the study door, and deliberately moved closer step by step, making sure her footsteps were light.

If something were to happen between her and Brother Xun, he would definitely not abandon her.

"Yi Yi, Yi Yi, are you back?"

Mu Nanxun's voice instantly pulled Xia Bingqing back to reality.

He looked into her eyes, which were filled with a dreamy look.

Xia Bingqing was somewhat overwhelmed; she was unwilling to give up the opportunity before her.

Perhaps this is the only chance. If I don't seize it, I'll only drift further and further away from him.

Having spent that one night with him, he couldn't deny their intimacy. Even if he hated her, it was still better than being strangers for life.

“That’s right, I am Yi Yi…”

Xia Bingqing's eyes never left him; every brow and glance of his was so captivating that she couldn't resist.

This is the man she has always deeply loved.

She slowly moved her hand away from his face and placed it on the ribbon of her skirt.

The ribbon was untied, and the skirt slid down, revealing her fair and rounded shoulders.

She had looked at herself in the mirror countless times and thought she was beautiful, had a good figure, and was a rare beauty.

She slowly leaned closer to him, feeling his unique masculine scent, and murmured, "Nanxun, it's me, Yi Yi, I'm back..."

Xia Bingqing, too engrossed in her own fantasies, didn't notice that Mu Nanxun's brows furrowed deeply.

The next moment, just as Xia Bingqing's body was about to touch Mu Nanxun, he suddenly pushed her away with force!

Xia Bingqing lost her balance and rolled over on the sofa before falling directly to the floor.
