Will you give me anything I want?

Gu Lianzhou's dark eyes were serene and lonely, like flickering will-o'-the-wisps, locking her tightly in the thick night.

Shen Zhiyi lowered her eyelashes.

"Um."

Her tone was obedient.

His fingers gripped the railing behind him tightly.

Gu Lianzhou stared at her trembling eyelashes and said in a hoarse voice, "I saw your diary."

Shen Zhiyi's watery eyes widened, and she suddenly looked up!

"W-what diary..." Her face flushed, her heels pressed against the gap in the railing, with nowhere to retreat, her gaze darting away to avoid the topic, "I don't understand what my brother was saying..."

"Shen Zhiyi, stop pretending." His expression was passionate. He held the railing by her waist with both hands, trapping her tightly in his embrace. His gaze swept down over her lips as if it were a physical object.

His voice grew increasingly low and hoarse.

“I have seen everything you wrote and everything you tried to do to me.”

Shen Zhiyi felt hot all over.

She lowered her eyelashes tremblingly, her shoulders hunched, and her delicate body trembled slightly with fear.

"Brother, brother, please don't hate me..."

She looked like she was about to cry.

Her nose was red, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. "I... I won't write those things anymore. Please don't be angry with me, please don't ignore me... okay?"

She dared not look into his eyes, but her slender fingertips tried to tug at the hem of his clothes.

But it still stopped in mid-air.

She bit her lip and carefully withdrew it.

"I know you only see me as a younger sister..."

"Who told you that?" Gu Lianzhou interrupted her, his tone calm and deliberate, yet filled with a firm questioning. "Who told you that I only see you as a younger sister?"

From the very first time he met her, he never treated her like a younger sister.

Now, it's even less likely.

Shen Zhiyi was stunned.

She looked up at him; tears still clung to the corners of his eyes.

“Brother…” she moved her lips, staring blankly at him, “What do you mean by this?”

Gu Lianzhou saw her anxiously twisting her skirt, and went a step further, grabbing her waist with both hands, pressing her against the railing, and overwhelming her with his breath.

“What I mean is…” He stared intently at her face, “If you want to thank me, kiss me.”

A tear fell from the corner of Shen Zhiyi's eye with a "plop".

But it wasn't because I was sad.

Instead, they were shocked.

"elder brother……"

“I said, kiss me,” he repeated in a deep voice, his tone leaving no room for argument.

"Or were your thanks just now just to appease me?"

"Are you lying to me?"

"No!" Shen Zhiyi hurriedly explained, glancing nervously at the first-floor window diagonally behind them. She gripped his clothes tightly and stammered, "It's just that there are a lot of people here..."

"Can we wait until we get home..."

"Right now." Gu Lianzhou's eyes darkened, his fingers tightened, gripping her waist and pressing her closer to him.

Until he made her feel his burning passion and unbearable desire as well.

Shen Zhiyi shuddered, tilted her head to meet his burning gaze, and, as if hooked, closed her eyes and stood on tiptoe.

She gently touched his lips.

But because her eyes were closed, she couldn't find the right spot and only managed to kiss the corner of his lips.

They skimmed the water like dragonflies, then quickly separated.

Her face flushed, she lowered her head and stammered, "Is this... alright?"

Gu Lianzhou chuckled helplessly, "Shen Zhiyi, open your eyes."

"Look at me."

He commanded.

The moment Shen Zhiyi looked up, his tall body pressed down on her and kissed her deeply.

He gripped the back of her neck, silencing her soft gasp.

Laughter of celebration and congratulations came from downstairs.

He pinned her down in the shade of the bushes and kissed her deeply.

His waist was adorned with strong, powerful arms, veins bulging, exuding vigor and heat.

His broad body was against the backdrop of a starry sky.

Shen Zhiyi opened her eyes a crack and saw Gu Lianzhou's long, tightly closed eyelashes and the dark night pressing down on him.

She heard the rustling sound of the wind blowing through the leaves.

They could also hear the ambiguous sounds of water emanating from their intertwined lips.

She closed her eyes and was also drawn into the immersion.

Until her breath and thoughts were taken away, she clung limply to him, even her toes curling up tightly.

Finally, it couldn't hold on any longer and trembled as it fell.

It felt as if I were about to fall into the scorching night.

Gu Lianzhou caught her, released her lips, pinched her blushing earlobe, his eyes deep and filled with doting affection.

“It’s no use,” he said softly.

Shen Zhiyi leaned on his shoulder, breathing heavily, her fingertips still tightly gripping his shirt, crumpling it forcefully.

"As long as my brother is useful, that's enough."

She tilted her head back, gently rubbing her forehead against his chin and neck, and said softly, "All I need is to rely on my brother."

Gu Lianzhou was made stiff by her overtures.

But something within the blood vessels surged and burned fiercely, eager to burst forth.

He gripped her chin, his tiger's mouth cupping her, and then lowered himself down, demanding her with burning passion.

He kissed her again and again.

He kissed her until her lips were swollen and her body became increasingly alluring before reluctantly letting her go.

He stroked her lips with his thumb and said in a hoarse voice, "Xiao Yi is right."

"It shouldn't be here."

At home, or somewhere else, he could openly demand more, instead of just taking a small bite and suppressing his desires as he does now.

He picked her up horizontally.

"Brother?" Shen Zhiyi was surprised and instinctively hooked her arms around his neck.

Gu Lianzhou gave her a deep look.

"Let's go home."

"Go home?" Shen Zhiyi's eyes widened in shock as she nestled in his arms. "Just... just like this?"
