"This man, Shen Changji, is acting strangely tonight," Su Miao thought.
Looking at her like this, do you want to have another romantic encounter with her?
Or... is he thinking of other ways to torment her?
Su Miao circled along Chen Changji's arm, then gently placed her hand on the back of his hand, trying to restrain his movements.
"What does this mean, brother? Are you going to punish me?" She smiled charmingly, her eyes sparkling with allure.
"Yeah, how about we chop off your hands first?"
Shen Changji seemed very patient, stroking her waist as he spoke casually.
I don't believe it.
"I don't believe you're so heartless, brother. After all, you really like my hands. Aren't you happy?" Su Miao hooked her arm around Chang Ji's neck and said sweetly.
"You seem to enjoy challenging me?"
"No, it's just that I like my brother and want to be with him forever, to be his woman."
Since she couldn't discern the man's motives, she simply went along with the conversation.
Su Miao's smile didn't diminish at all, and she even boldly touched his Adam's apple, her expression provocative.
"Brother, if you're going to punish me, you'd better hurry. Otherwise, if I stay here too long, it will attract attention. After all, Sister Liu has already started to suspect our relationship today."
Su Miao stared intently at Chen Changji with her bright eyes.
"So you scared her."
"I didn't. It was Sister Liu who didn't believe in our platonic relationship, so I had to prove my innocence. Who knew... she's so timid and got scared!" Su Miao said innocently.
"You're betting that I'll show up, aren't you?"
His deep, quiet eyes held a penetrating gaze, as if trying to see into the depths of her heart.
Su Miao was slightly taken aback when she heard this.
As expected of General Shen, who has fought on the battlefield, she did indeed have a gamble in her mind.
Because she knew that Liu Jiaojiao was after Shen Changji, she would definitely want to have more contact with him, so she deliberately came to visit him when he was about to finish his shift.
Firstly, it would dispel Liu Jiaojiao's suspicions about her and even let her know that she was not someone to be trifled with!
Secondly, Shen Changji will definitely favor Liu Jiaojiao first, which will satisfy Liu Jiaojiao and she won't think too much about it. She will be immersed in the dream that she will be the future mistress of the Duke's mansion.
At the same time, she was also testing Shen Changji's feelings for Liu Jiaojiao.
If she really liked Liu Jiaojiao, she probably wouldn't be sitting comfortably in this man's lap right now.
Therefore, Shen Changji did not like this marriage!
However, it was difficult to refuse the marriage proposal openly, given the deep relationship between Liu Taipu and the Duke's mansion.
But... as long as she's around, their marriage is destined to fail!
Su Miao chuckled lightly at Shen Changji's suspicion.
"How could that be? I'm not that kind of scheming woman! I just didn't want to cause trouble for my brother, how could he think such a bad thing about me!"
As Su Miao spoke, she turned her head away, pretending to be in great pain.
Rather than be seen through, she'd rather play dumb!
Shen Changji looked at her, his face darkening.
Worried that Shen Changji was overthinking things, Su Miao quickly nudged him and changed the subject, saying, "What about the thing you promised me this morning? You didn't buy it, did you? I've been waiting for so long."
Upon hearing this, Shen Changji recalled the taste of osmanthus cake and asked in a deep voice, "Did you make this yourself?"
"Otherwise what?"
Su Miao raised her eyes, a hint of suspicion in them.
"I hope my brother doesn't think I delegated the task to someone else. In the end, I probably didn't buy that thing."
Su Miao didn't need to think too much; she knew that once Shen Changji agreed, whether or not he would actually buy it was another matter entirely.
There are some things she still needs to go back and rethink.
"I bought it."
Shen Changji met Su Miao's gaze and stared straight at her.
A barely perceptible glint flashed in his eyes, and his Adam's apple bobbed.
"I bought the things," he said in a low, hoarse voice.
This statement surprised Su Miao.
The next second, Shen Changji grabbed her waist and whispered in her ear, "But I want to eat something else."
