Like anyone who has tasted something delicious for the first time, Xu Tingchuan found it hard to resist.

His body was screaming that he wanted her more, more intensely; just a kiss was enough to make him want to meld her into his very bones.

"Sitian, Sitian..." After his lips parted from hers, he couldn't help but whisper her name, as if this could reduce the heat rising in his body.

His deep, magnetic voice rang in Ni Sitian's ears, and she felt her body going weak from his calls.

She let him do as he pleased on the sofa, and once again he devoured her completely.

In the end, she could only hang weakly on him as he carried her to the bathroom to wash up, and then carried her to bed.

As if he still wouldn't let go, he buried his face in her neck and kissed her gently, his fingers kneading her waist.

"No, I'm so tired..." She was so exhausted that she couldn't even lift her hands, and her voice was hoarse as she mumbled softly.

Although Xu Tingchuan really wanted to do it again, he couldn't bear to continue seeing her looking so exhausted. He held her in his arms, took a few deep breaths, and slowly calmed the restlessness in his body.

Ni Sitian adjusted her position slightly on his arm, placed her hand on his waist, and slowly closed her eyes.

He looked down at her; her face still had a blush from their lovemaking, and her brows and eyes seemed to have relaxed a bit. She was no longer just a young girl with innocent cuteness, but also had a touch of charming allure.

The thought that it was because of him softened her gaze, and a smile slowly spread across her lips.

The next day.

When Ni Sitian woke up, it was already broad daylight.

She moved her arms and felt as if her whole body had been run over; every bone felt foreign to her.

"You're awake." Xu Tingchuan was changing clothes in front of the wardrobe when he heard Ni Sitian's movement. He went over, sat down next to her, and gently massaged her lower back. He said considerately, "Are you still very tired? Why don't you rest for a while longer?"

Ni Sitian glared at him reproachfully. If it weren't for him, would she be in this state?

"Don't look at me like that, it'll tempt me to continue." Xu Tingchuan smiled gently.

Ni Sitian looked away and glanced at the wall clock; it was already nine o'clock! Today is Monday!

"Why didn't you wake me up so late?" She didn't care about anything else and hurriedly got out of bed, almost collapsing because her legs went weak. Luckily, Xu Tingchuan helped her up.

However, she felt no gratitude whatsoever towards the culprit and hurriedly went to the bathroom to wash up.

While washing my face, I saw red marks all over my neck from his kisses, and my face instantly turned bright red. These marks couldn't be covered up with foundation!

It's not even November yet, is she going to wear a turtleneck to work?!

"Sitian?" Xu Tingchuan knocked on the bathroom door when he saw that she hadn't come out for a long time.

Ni Sitian suddenly flung open the bathroom door, glared at him resentfully, and said angrily, "Don't kiss me so hard again!"

Xu Tingchuan looked at the marks he had left behind, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.

He did it on purpose; he wanted everyone to know that she was already taken and that they should stop trying to seduce her.

"You're still laughing! How annoying!" Ni Sitian punched him, then ignored him and went to the wardrobe to pick out clothes that could cover her up as much as possible.

Xu Tingchuan took out a silk scarf from the bottom drawer of the wardrobe and tied it around her neck.

He brought this silk scarf back from Hong Kong, and this time he didn't ask his secretary to buy it. He saw it in the shop window that day, thought it was perfect for her, and couldn't resist buying it.

However, I didn't have a chance to give it away in the past few days, so now is the perfect time.
