Shen Zhiyi closed her eyes.

Following his scent, she leaned closer.

Her soft lips touched his.

She allowed it!

Xie Huaiyang's blood was ignited.

He held her by the back of her neck and pressed down with a deep kiss without any hesitation.

Their lips and teeth intertwined.

He went from being patient to being impatient.

Like a wild beast that has tasted honey, after licking it, it is eager to obtain more abundant delicacies to satisfy its desire.

He almost brutally pried open her teeth.

He plundered every inch of her mouth and teeth, drawing upon her sobs and breath.

He held her waist with one hand, spun around, and pressed her against the back of the sofa. The hand that gripped the back of her neck tightened slightly, his fingertips digging into her skin, forcing her to tilt her head back and face him more fully.

An inescapable demand.

Shen Zhiyi trembled in his arms, her fingertips clutching his shirt, crumpling the expensive fabric into a tangled mess.

She had always been in the dark.

But at this moment, all his senses were amplified infinitely by his scorching breath and domineering plunder.

She could even hear the soft, blush-inducing sounds of their kissing.

And his suppressed sighs and groans.

The heat emanating from him almost burned her, triggering a series of uncontrollable shivers.

As the oxygen ran out, her face flushed slightly.

Xie Huaiyang kindly released her lips, his forceful control turning into a soothing lick, tender and gentle, yet almost kissing her soul away.

"Breathe." His voice was hoarse.

Shen Zhiyi tilted her head, her forehead resting against his strong shoulder, her mouth open, breathing softly.

But with each breath, I absorbed more of his scent.

My lungs feel like they're on fire.

My heart was pounding wildly.

Her fingertips curled up, and she couldn't help but grip his clothes tightly.

Xie Huaiyang chuckled softly, his chest unconsciously filling with a dense, pleasant sensation because of her reaction.

“Baby…” He lowered his head, his lips brushing against her earlobe, his voice languid with contentment, “You’re so sweet.”

Shen Zhiyi buried her face in his shoulder, her ears turning bright red.

He hugged her.

He held her tightly in his arms, his possessiveness palpable.

A feeling of longing welled up in Shen Zhiyi's heart.

Xie Huaiyang...

If only you could stay like this forever...

Xie Huaiyang pulled down his suit jacket and let her lean against him, stroking her back soothingly so she could breathe some fresh air.

"Baby, have you ever thought about going back to school?" he asked casually, twirling her hair.

But his eyes were carefully observing her.

She wants to create her own brand and continue to delve into this path, so she can't avoid further education.

In addition to universities, there are also renowned international perfumery institutions.

He would do everything he could to help her if she wanted to.

Shen Zhiyi looked slightly taken aback.

He lowered his eyes.

"It's not that simple."

"I can't see, so not many schools will accept me."

That means you're willing.

Xie Huaiyang straightened up, grasped her shoulders, and said earnestly, "Then cure your eyes."

He paused, then said somewhat nervously, "Baby, actually I invited a doctor over today. He's very skilled. Would you like him to take a look at your eyes?"

He didn't tell her.

He did everything he could to help her retain her student status.

If her eyesight recovers, she will be able to return to school in Beijing.

With such excellent grades back then, she was certain she could get into her preferred major if she passed the entrance exam.

However, he hasn't "regained his memory" yet, and this must be kept from her for the time being.

"Doctor?" Shen Zhiyi was still a little confused.

"Mm." Xie Huaiyang nodded emphatically.

In the past few days, he has looked up all the information about her treatment back then. It was because of psychological resistance and her aunt's deliberate delay that she did not even consider giving her a corneal transplant, which caused her to miss the best time for treatment.

But now her emotions have stabilized.

As long as she is psychologically willing to accept it and does not reject the transplanted cornea, and as long as a skilled doctor performs the surgery, there is a possibility of regaining her sight.

Shen Zhiyi paused for a moment, then looked up and replied, "Okay."

She knew the chances of her eyes recovering were slim.

But I don't know why.

At this moment, she didn't want to reject his feelings.

There was also a faint hope in my heart.

What if... I could really see him again?

Xie Huaiyang was overjoyed and quickly called the doctor over to examine her.

Hearing the commotion, Mingjie came over and said, "Brother Yang, there happens to be a private clinic around here. Would you like to take your wife and the doctor there for a comprehensive check-up?"

Xie Huaiyang naturally agreed.

He Yueguang also had some laboratory matters to discuss with Xie Huaiyang, so he went to the clinic with them.

While Shen Zhiyi was conducting the inspection, a group of people waited at the door.

Seeing Xie Huaiyang's anxious expression, He Yueguang pushed up his glasses and asked, "When do you plan to tell her about keeping her student status and opening the lab?"

Before Xie Huaiyang could answer, Mingjie jumped up in anger.

Retain student status?

Open a laboratory?

His eyes widened in astonishment. "Brother Yang, you've regained your memories?!"

Xie Huaiyang gave a faint "hmm".

“No…” Mingjie looked at the tightly closed door, then at Xie Huaiyang, “Didn’t you remember that you and Shen Zhiyi are mortal enemies?!”

"Why are you still so close to her?"

A sudden flash of white light struck his mind, and he pointed at Xie Huaiyang: "You, you..."
