Chapter 40

Things like kissing also require texture.

Kissing someone with bad breath, yellow teeth, and thick, fishy tongue coating would be a nightmare.

Yu Jinnian just happens to be the one with good quality. Her teeth receive professional care every week, and they are white and intact.

The key point is that this person's tongue is well maintained, without any tongue coating, and is rosy and smooth.

Just, very comfortable.

The man's scent was too strong, and Si Wan's mind was already confused by the kiss.

"Si Wan, you're playing hard to get and that's ridiculous."

"Stop doing these stupid things. I'm not interested in you, ever. Got it?"

I reviewed what Yu Jinnian had said in my mind.

Seeing that the plan was making progress, Si Wan's mood became cheerful, thinking about making this man fall in love with her and then dumping him.

Just - cool.

The door was suddenly knocked by Peng Peng.

Si Wan pushed him away and turned her head away: "Okay."

"Heh." The man looked at Si Wan's blushing cheeks and let out a low laugh from his throat.

Yu Jinnian let her go and said in a hoarse voice, "Go open the door."

He went to the bathroom.

Si Wan glared at him in dissatisfaction: "You are quite good at ordering people around."

The door opened and Si Nian rushed in, looking for Yu Jinnian.

Not seeing anyone, he turned his gaze to Si Wan again: "He didn't do anything to you, did he?"

"No." That was all Si Wan could say.

Si Nian thought that with such a short time, Yu Jinnian would not be able to do anything bad.

Although he was relieved, he didn't want Si Wan to stay with Yu Jinnian, so he pulled Si Wan out and said, "Brother is back, let's go back to Kyoto."

"Um."

Si Li sat on the sofa with two suitcases beside his legs.

"Luxury goods are duty-free here in Hong Kong." Before Si Wan could ask, Si Li took the initiative to inform her: "...I bought you some bags. You can open them now if you want to use them."

Si Wan made an 'O' shape with her mouth as if receiving a signal, shook her head, and sat down next to Si Li. "Big brother, that's really thoughtful. Thank you, big brother. I'll take a look at it when I get home."

Si Li suddenly stared at Si Wan, with that scrutinizing gaze again: "...You used to love brand-name bags the most. Every time I gave you a bag, you couldn't wait to open it."

Si Wan naturally covered it up: "Well... there are outsiders here, I don't want to share the things that my brother gave me."

"Outsider?" Si Li paused, looked at Liuli and finally understood.

He suddenly laughed out loud, and the doubts in his heart were dispelled: "You little stingy guy."

"Then let's go." Si Nian said hurriedly.

Si Wan and Yu Jinnian just talked about their relationship and he planned not to tell his elder brother about it.

The main point is that as long as he doesn't say anything about this matter, it's an illusion.

"Let's go, let's go." Si Nian picked up the box and was about to leave.

"Where are you going?" Si Li stopped him.

Si Nian was stunned for a moment, then said as a matter of course: "Go home."

Si Li: "You and I will stay here for a few more days."

"Why?" Si Nian jumped up and down. He knew that his elder brother was not that kind.

Si Li's face showed displeasure: "It's time for you to meet Uncle Lin's little daughter."

Without giving Si Nian a chance to refuse, he added, "If you don't go, I'll take back your credit card."

Si Nian: “…” He’s doing this again.

After blocking Si Nian's mouth, Si Li looked at Si Wan. "What happened between you and Yu Jinnian... I don't care anymore. Just remember that big brother is always on your side. Okay?"

After a night of calming down, Si Li finally came to terms with it.

When it comes to matters of the heart, the more others interfere, the more counterproductive it will be.

As the saying goes, you won't turn back until you hit the wall.

In Sili's opinion, Yu Jinnian is a typical workaholic who doesn't understand romance.

He felt that once Si Wan really got to know Yu Jinnian, she might get tired of him.

Then it will naturally disperse.

At 2 pm in Kyoto, Si Wan landed in Kyoto.

"I have something to do. Just drop me off downtown." Si Wan said as the business car was about to enter the city.

Wu never dared to respond, but instead watched his boss's intention through the rearview mirror.

"For you." No room for refusal.

Si Wan wanted to say no, but when the words came to her lips, she turned them into: "That's troublesome."

The address Si Wan reported was Wu Nan's workplace.

After getting off the bus, as the electric door was about to close, she heard Yu Jinnian say, "I'll see you at Jin Garden at 8 o'clock."

"It's a bit sunny. Can you lend me your sunglasses?" She took Yu Jinnian's sunglasses, and her tone didn't sound like borrowing, but rather like notification.

"I have to go home today. My mother wants to talk to me."

After saying that, Si Wan went to the urban construction reception desk without looking back.

Yu Jinnian stared at Si Wan's back for a long time, then suddenly snorted coldly, "Let's go."

Escape? The man silently curled his lips, not knowing what he was thinking of.

When Jiang Zhong saw Si Wan, he was feeding birds in the backyard. To be precise, Si Wan found him in the backyard.

"Oh my, I'm sorry for not welcoming you, Master."

Jiang Zhong didn't dare to neglect it at all. He threw away the bowl of bird feed and smoothly entered the process of receiving Si Wan:

"Bring my treasured Da Hong Pao and send it to Guanjiang Pavilion."

After Si Wan sat down, she pushed her sunglasses to the top of her head, letting the midday sun flow across her collarbone like a honey-colored river.

The elegant garden on the second floor is hung with green ivy like a waterfall, and the river outside the glass curtain wall is being crushed in the sparkling waves.

The buildings on the opposite bank have shed their neon feathers, revealing the cool texture of metal and glass under the clear sky.

The wind blew across the terrace where mint and lemongrass were intertwined, and she suddenly remembered the night three years ago when she jumped off the river bank.

The river breeze on that autumn night was extremely cold - the fishy and cold feeling of the river water pouring into my nostrils, the heaviness of my dress after absorbing the water, and the warm yellow halo from the porthole of the cruise ship I saw before my last consciousness faded, all resembled the steam rising from the tea bowl at this moment.

She unconsciously stroked the glass table top, the cold touch overlapping with the temperature of the river surface back then.

On the cracked glass table, the tea was obviously very hot, but it felt like a cool pool.

Her chest felt strangely sore, and she suddenly realized that she had wasted three years.

Although she had broken her promise to the original owner, she was not an ungrateful person.

That’s why I’m sitting here today.

"How about we make a deal?" Si Wan lowered her eyes and looked at Jiang Zhong.

It's true that Jiang Zhong wanted to take Si Wan as his master, but when he heard the word "transaction", his guard suppressed his inner excitement.

He had a vague feeling that Si Wan must be talking about his son.

The old man's attitude became much calmer, and he asked, "Young lady, why don't you tell me about it?"

A serious and formal attitude.

Si Wan laughed, knowing that Jiang Zhong had made a mistake, and said, "You have a five-year-old granddaughter, Liuli's."

“…” Jiang Zhong was speechless.

He was not speechless, but very happy, but soon he was shocked again.

Old man: "What do you want to say?"

Si Wan looked towards the river again: "What is the relationship between Mr. Jiang Sanye's biological father and Wen Qing?"

…
