In particular, even though she was already injured, she still stood tall and glared at him with unwavering determination. That fierceness instantly stirred up a sense of pleasure and ignited a desire to conquer.
Okay, I want to bully him.
Si Jin swore that this was definitely the most charming and understanding Xiao A Yuan in recent worlds.
Si Jin had never intended to be truly angry with him, and now she felt even more delighted.
He stood up, his leather shoes clattering on the ground, the chain on his wrist jingling with his movements.
Approaching Su Linyuan from behind, she bent down, grabbed the leather belt binding the man's hands, and forced him to face her.
"Weren't you going to apologize with thorns on your back?" Si Jin asked, her voice slightly hoarse. Because her voice was low and had a natural graininess, even a casual remark was enough to captivate. "Where are your thorns?"
“He’s outside,” Su Linyuan said, giving Si Jin a wink.
Si Jin got up and walked around the living room. Sure enough, she saw a dark black whip on the coffee table, embroidered with bright red falcon patterns. It seemed to be a close-combat weapon that Su Linyuan occasionally used when he was an assassin.
Si Jin's eyes were tinged with a rosy hue. She slowly bent the whip and held it in her hand, then approached Su Linyuan step by step and lifted his chin.
"Tell me, where have you been these past five days ignoring me?"
Su Linyuan replied seriously: "Su Linyuan, the head of the Lingyun Pavilion assassins, codename 'Falcon'. Before, when you gambled with Master Xiong, I discovered that several Lingyun Pavilion assassins had betrayed me and were under Master Xiong's command. That's why I wanted to hurry up and eliminate all possible dangers to protect you."
Si Jin slowly squatted down: "Then why did you lock me up?"
"Because you ignored me and even mixed drinks for others, I hate the way those people look at you." As he spoke, Su Linyuan's eyes revealed a hint of helplessness, like a wronged big dog, with its non-existent tail and ears drooping down.
“But I was doing this to make money and eliminate potential threats,” Si Jin explained. “I’ve been incredibly busy these past few days. Not only did I raid Xiong Sanye’s house, but I also discovered that he paid a high price to hackers to attack your Falcon Company’s security network, intending to steal your weapons manufacturing technology.”
"But what about you? You don't even ask me."
"You don't even need to thank me."
"Instead, they locked me up..."
"I was wrong." The more Su Linyuan listened to the next three sentences, the more frightened he became. A familiar sense of oppression washed over him, and he couldn't take it. He could only quickly admit his mistake: "Please punish me, Priest."
"The cage is broken, what punishment should I give you?" Si Jin murmured, and finally said, "How about you not be allowed to go to bed for half a month?"
After much thought, Si Jin felt that the old method was still the simplest and most satisfying.
Su Gougou's invisible ears drooped even lower, as if he were thinking about something naughty.
His hands behind him weren't idle either; relying on years of experience licking blood off the edge, he quickly unbuckled the belt.
Then, he suddenly raised his hand, grabbed the gold chain on Si Jin's wrist that was still fastened, and kissed her while holding her.
After not seeing each other for many days, and with everything happening so suddenly last night because of the "bartending incident," Si Jin hugged him back and gave him a tender kiss.
Fortunately, the carpet in the bedroom was thick enough to keep them warm. After some time, the two separated.
Their breathing was unsteady; they lay on the ground, only their hands still folded together, staring at the ceiling, their lips parted to breathe.
There were no extra words, yet the atmosphere was unexpectedly harmonious, and even our heartbeats were almost synchronized.
Si Jin spoke first: "Why did you kiss me?"
"It's nothing," Su Linyuan replied. "It's just that I feel that you're thinking of me, and I'm thinking of you too. You spend five days helping me consolidate the company, and I spend five days helping you deal with the assassins. It's so romantic."
"We think of each other without saying a word. You and I, we ourselves are romance."
