Shi Nian suddenly reached out a finger and gently placed it on his lips, a simple smile on her face. "What happened today is a little secret between us, so don't tell anyone, okay?"

She touched his lips lightly with her finger and then withdrew it.

Ye Chen's eyes darkened, and a feeling he couldn't quite define—disappointment or something else—rose within him...

What disappointed him?

Was she disappointed that she wasn't going to kiss him?

Pshaw, he wasn't really looking forward to her kissing him.

If she actually kissed him, he would make her die rhythmically!

"Why should I keep it a secret for you?" Ye Chen said mockingly.

She kicked him, and he's still in pain. Why should he keep it a secret for her?

Shi Nian sighed helplessly, "Then I'll just have to leave you speechless."

Ye Chen: "..."

Shi Nian continued with a troubled expression, "Actually, I don't want to do this at all. After the amputation, I have to learn to cook and make it taste good to eat. But my cooking skills are not good, so it's very troublesome."

Ye Chen: "..."

Yesterday, when he saw him deliberately targeting Bo Yunhai and Su Rou, he thought she had regained her senses.

It seems she still has a mental illness.

Moreover, he was quite ill.

The way she spoke made it sound like she had eaten it herself...

"Brother Chen, be good. If this gets out, it will affect you even more. If Grandpa finds out that you bullied me, who is weak and innocent, he will break your legs." Shi Nian smiled gently, looking innocent and harmless.

Ye Chen scoffed, completely disregarding her threat. "Do you really think the old man would break my leg for you?"

"I can't guarantee that," Shi Nian answered honestly, giving him a sweet smile. "But I can guarantee that if you ruin my image as a kind, gentle, and well-behaved girl, I really will keep my word."

Ye Chen laughed in exasperation, a hint of amusement appearing in his deep eyes. "Then let's see if you have the ability!"

Shi Nian blinked. "Don't provoke me. Right now, you're practically a cripple in front of me. If you keep provoking me, I don't mind taking action right now."

Ye Chen: "..."

She really underestimated him.

Although that area is still painful.

But if we really get serious, it's not difficult to deal with her.

"Pfft..." Shi Nian suddenly covered her mouth and said playfully, "I was just kidding. How could a girl as weak and timid as me do something so cruel?"

Ye Chen frowned. What was this woman up to, changing her expression so frequently?

Just then, he suddenly heard the old man's voice behind him, "Fifth brother? What are you doing at Niannian's door? And why are you sitting at her door? Are you trying to scam me?"

Ye Chen: "..." So it was the old man who came up. No wonder she suddenly became well-behaved.

However, the old man's words... really sound like they came from his own father!

"Grandpa, why did you come up here?" Shi Nian stood up with a sweet smile on her face, jogged over to the old man's side, and affectionately took his arm.

Grandpa Bo patted Shi Nian's arm and asked with concern, "Why is Fifth Brother at your room door? Did he bully you?"

Shi Nian puffed out her cheeks and said sullenly, "He didn't bully me, but he's so scary! Grandpa, can you find me another place to live? I don't want to live on the third floor with him anymore!"
