Jiang Nian was still sleepy when she was suddenly picked up and surrounded by the man's familiar scent.
Si Boye's warmth emanated through the fabric of his shirt.
The skin that was originally exposed to the coolness of the night breeze seemed to become hot.
Jiang Nian's first reaction was not to reject or push the person away, but to subconsciously tighten her arms around the other person's neck.
The next second, when she regained her senses, she realized that she was actually craving the other person's embrace.
But with other people around, Jiang Nian couldn't help but struggle: "Si Boye..."
But she was held firmly in the man's strong arms.
A low, husky voice sounded in her ear, in a tone only the two of them could hear, with a hint of coaxing: "I'll put you down after I carry you inside, be good."
Let it go.
Men have always been domineering.
They did indeed put the person down at the door.
Jiang Nian opened the door and invited Song Sichen and Qi Yi in.
The villa was incredibly large and excessively tidy, to the point that it lacked any sense of life.
"Senior sister, is this your residence? Do you usually live here?" Qi Yi looked around.
"No, I usually live with my maternal grandfather, and I only come here occasionally."
As Jiang Nian spoke, she led the group to sit in the living room.
"I'll order something to eat. Qi Yi likes barbecue, but can Brother Si Chen eat something greasy like this?"
"If you don't want to eat, I'll order you something else."
When Jiang Nian mentioned that she liked barbecue, Qi Yi's eyes lit up.
My senior sister still remembers what he likes to eat. How wonderful!
When the girl specifically asked about his eating habits, Song Si's gaze softened even more.
"I'm fine with anything, just order whatever you like."
Jiang Nian nodded and took out her phone.
I opened the delivery app of the highest-rated barbecue restaurant and ordered some dishes that I thought Qi Yi and Song Sichen would like.
Then he handed the phone directly to Si Boye on the sofa without even looking up and said, "Order whatever you want to eat."
Jiang Nian's movements were natural, and she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with them.
But both Song Sichen and Qi Yi were taken aback when they saw this scene.
Jiang Nian was indeed more considerate of their preferences, and hadn't even asked Si Boye what he wanted to eat. But in a sense, this consideration was just politeness.
Instead, she didn't even ask Si Boye, letting him order for himself, showing the girl's familiarity and ease with this man.
Song Sichen was surprised.
That day at the Song family banquet, Si Boye and Jiang Nian must have met for the first time, right?
Only a few days have passed. What method did he use to make the girl so unguarded around him?
Qi Yi, on the other hand, had lost his previous confidence.
Their expressions changed instantly.
He had lived with his master and senior sister for a period of time, so he naturally knew Jiang Nian's habits.
My senior sister would never let strangers get close to her.
Moreover, my senior sister never lets anyone touch her cell phone, which is such a private thing; he hasn't even had the chance to touch it.
Why did this man become the exception?
He had initially thought that his senior sister and this man named Si Boye had only had a ridiculous, unfulfilled marriage, which didn't amount to much. But now it seemed that wasn't the case.
His senior sister treated him in a special way.
Half an hour later, the food I ordered arrived.
But apart from Si Boye, Song Sichen and Qi Yi both ate their late-night snack without tasting it.
Song Sichen took his leave first.
Before leaving, Qi Yi asked, "Senior Sister, may I have a few words with you alone?"
Jiang Nian escorted the person to the door, and Qi Yi really wanted to ask Jiang Nian what her relationship with Si Boye was.
But in the end, he hesitated and couldn't bring himself to say it.
The boy just bit his lip: "Senior sister, will you leave without a word again this time, changing all your contact information so I can't find you?"
"...No more."
Seeing the boy's slightly reddened eyes, Jiang Nian's heart softened, and her tone also softened.
"I'm sorry, Qi Yi. A lot happened before I returned to China, and changing my contact information was unavoidable."
When Lu Zhaokun died, the various factions under his command became entangled, each busy fighting for power.
Even if she leaves without taking anything with her, there's no guarantee that someone won't come looking for her.
She didn't want to cause trouble for the few people around her who cared about her, such as her mentors and Qi Yi.
More than three months have passed since then, and her tense nerves have finally begun to relax.
Qi Yi raised his eyes and tentatively asked, "Is it related to that man?"
Qi Yi knew that his senior sister's adoptive father was no ordinary person.
Jiang Nian turned her eyes away, her tone indifferent: "Don't mention him anymore. From now on, I have nothing to do with him."
After Qi Yi left, Jiang Nian returned to the living room.
I was still thinking about going to Si Boye's place next door to see Pipi later.
However, as soon as she returned, before she could even react, the man spun her around and pinned her against the wall, holding her tightly in his arms.
Si Boye held Jiang Nian's head with one hand and wrapped his other large hand around her waist, pressing the girl tightly against him without leaving a gap.
The next second, a kiss as intense as a storm, carrying an aura of domineering possessiveness, rained down upon them.
The man's long-suppressed desires, once released, surged forth with a scorching intensity. It was as if he wanted to meld the girl before him into his body and devour her whole.
"Si Boye..."
The brain is too busy to think.
Even though it was only three words, they were pronounced haltingly.
Because her reflection was visible through the floor-to-ceiling windows, Jiang Nian's legs went weak, and she reached out to turn off the chandelier, plunging the living room into darkness in an instant.
Si Boye stopped, somewhat incredulous: "Baby...aren't you afraid of the dark anymore?"
Jiang Nian's face was flushed, and although she was panting, her voice was still cold: "Yes, I haven't been afraid since you gave me that firefly rabbit."
Darkness is the catalyst that fuels madness.
Her response was an even more intense and deep kiss.
It was an unknown amount of time before Si Boye finally calmed down.
Jiang Nian had a feeling that the man tonight seemed to have been stimulated by something.
Si Boye buried his face in her neck, his voice unusually muffled, tinged with a hint of grievance.
"How could you not be agitated? The moment you got back, you saw two men with ill intentions approaching you."
“One of them was involved in your past… a past I know nothing about.”
Jiang Nian was speechless for a moment.
If we're talking about approaching her with ulterior motives, then the man in front of me is more fitting that description, isn't he?
Immediately afterwards, Si Boye's tone became a bit somber.
His rough fingertips stroked the girl's long, ink-black hair, pausing for a few seconds: "...Baby, I accidentally overheard your conversation with that Qi Yi. Who is the man he was talking about?"
