Qin Yubai raised his hand and pressed it against Jian Zhizhen's lower back, pulling her into his arms. His hot breath then covered her lips.

Jian Zhizhen stared blankly at him with her eyes half-open, all her thoughts occupied by the man in front of her.

Although they had reunited yesterday, they only had the chance to be alone together now, and the longing they had suppressed for so many days finally burst forth.

But the kiss lasted only a few seconds before being interrupted by an unexpected message.

Lin Yi: "Although the production team specially changed the terms for the two of you, and everyone knows about your situation, you must remember that there are surveillance cameras in the room. Even if it's not being broadcast live, as the person in charge of the program, I hope you will maintain the proper morality and etiquette towards Zhenzhen and restrain your behavior. Don't let down the two beds that the production team specially prepared for you."

This highly targeted message was transmitted to Qin Yubai's mind via bone conduction.

He instantly snapped out of it and quickly released Jian Zhizhen.

Jian Zhizhen has already told Qin Yubai about Jian Zhizhen's confrontation with Lin Yi last night.

Therefore, Qin Yubai could understand his fear that his sister would suffer.

But he felt wronged... He's an adult, and he still has to be controlled by his elders when he's dating.

Jian Zhizhen looked at him with hazy eyes: "What's wrong?"

Qin Yubai hesitated for a few seconds before asking her, "Did Lin Yi send you any messages?"

Jian Zhizhen glanced down at her wrist: "No."

She looked up at Qin Yubai again: "What did he send you?"

Qin Yubai sighed inwardly: "He told me to maintain morality and courtesy towards you."

Jian Zhizhen smiled and said, "My brother is so nice."

“But this matter…” She grabbed Qin Yubai’s hands and pulled him to her waist.

Then raise your hand, hook it around his neck, and press him down.

I don't want to listen to him.

She stood on tiptoe, tilted her head back, and kissed him.

...

It took more than ten minutes for Jian Zhizhen to take a shower.

During this time, Lin Yi kept sending messages to Qin Yubai:

—"???"

"Why aren't you replying to me? Are you already being indecent?"

"I'm going to knock on your door!"

"I'd like to ask the company to arrange a 24-hour non-stop live stream just for the two of you."

Qin Yubai was furious with him and retorted, "Why don't you just say all this to Zhenzhen?"

Lin Yi: "Because Zhenzhen isn't that kind of person."

Qin Yubai: "You don't understand your sister at all."

I really don't know who that kind of person is.

But Qin Yubai was also afraid that he would really knock on the door in the middle of the night, and that he would really apply for a 24-hour uninterrupted live broadcast.

He could only reply with a perfunctory, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

Then they ignored him.

After a while, Jian Zhizhen came out of the shower, and Qin Yubai took her turn to shower.

Jian Zhizhen had something she wanted to do during the day, something she had been wanting to do behind Qin Yubai's back.

Now I finally have some free time.

She lay on the bed and searched on various novel platforms.

I want to finish reading that story about the rogue general and the delicate princess.

I watched half of it during the day, then I ran into a wall and didn't get to see the rest of the plot before someone else scrolled past it.

She really wanted to know whether that country had actually been saved.

But she couldn't find it no matter how many channels she knew.

I'm so anxious... Nothing is more agonizing than seeing half a story unfold.

She searched diligently for a long time but couldn't find it.

After Qin Yubai finished showering, he came up behind her and asked, "What are you doing?"

Jian Zhizhen turned off the search, glanced back at him, and said, "I'm not telling you."

Qin Yubai squatted down beside her bed, watched her quietly for a while, and didn't ask any further questions: "Okay, then I'll turn off the light and go to sleep?"

Jian Zhizhen nodded: "Mm."

Qin Yubai looked up and ruffled her hair: "Goodnight."

He got up and turned off the light, plunging the room into darkness.

Jian Zhizhen continued searching for that article.

Another half hour passed, and the search yielded no results.

She gave up.

She rolled over and lay down, staring at the dark ceiling for a while, becoming more and more alert as she thought about it.

No, I definitely won't be able to sleep tonight if I don't figure this out.

Jian Zhizhen got out of bed, walked to the bed opposite, lifted the covers and crawled in, lying down next to Qin Yubai: "Bai Bai."

Faced with the sudden warmth in his arms, Qin Yubai froze, and slowly responded, "...Hmm?"

Jian Zhizhen's words were calm yet earnest: "When can we go crazy with passion?"

Qin Yubai: "..."

She's drunk! Absolutely drunk!

That concocted sea salt alcoholic beverage today emboldened her!

He was so startled that it took him a while to speak: "What are you saying? What are you saying? Is this something a young girl like you should say?"

Jian Zhizhen paused for a moment, then complained in a low voice, "You discriminate against women. If men can say such things, why can't women?"

Qin Yubai was both amused and exasperated: "Even men can't say that, it goes against public order and good morals."

Chien Chih-chen: "But you told me before that it's not shameful to learn what's taught in books. You also told me that love and desire are symbiotic."

"..." Qin Yubai felt a sense of helplessness, as if he had dug a hole for himself. "The books teach you physiological knowledge, but do they teach you crazy...behaviors?"

“The books didn’t teach it, that’s why I need you to teach me.” Jian Zhizhen leaned closer to him, tilting her head up to look at him. “Could you teach me something that interests me?”

Qin Yubai lowered his eyes and looked at her in the faint moonlight from the window.

Her clear eyes were filled with a thirst for knowledge, without a trace of ambiguity.
