The room was dimly lit, and a long, silent arm supported Su Miao's waist, enveloping her beneath him.
The air was filled with the scent of cool wood and wine, and Su Miao could clearly feel the heat emanating from her waist, which made her shiver.
Her eyes were glazed as she tried to make out the man in front of her.
"Who am I?" The deep, scorching breath hit Su Miao's face, and the voice was low and hoarse.
Su Miao did not answer when she heard the voice.
A strong sense of crisis crept into her heart.
Shen Changji carried her to the back window and opened it without hesitation.
A cool breeze suddenly rushed in, and a long silence pressed her against the window, making Su Miaojiu sober up a bit.
She knew clearly that the person behind her was Chen Changji.
The blush on Su Miao's face hadn't faded, her eyes were lazy, and her soft body pressed against the man's chest, her waist moving back and forth intentionally or unintentionally.
"Brother, are you going to play here? I'm afraid I won't be able to control my voice."
"Are you awake?"
Chen Changji pushed Su Miao's body further outward.
Because this place is remote and there is a bamboo forest behind it, the wind blowing in is cool.
The front was cool and the back was hot, a feeling that made Su Miao very uncomfortable.
Most importantly, given her current condition, if it weren't for Chen Changji's arm holding her, she might have fallen.
This man... ha!
"Brother wants to kill me?" Su Miao's voice was charming and melodious, with a faint scent of wine.
A cool breeze blew in, dispelling some of the lingering heat and silence.
He grabbed Su Miao's chin with his large hand, forcing her to lift her face and meet the chill that was coming at her.
“You resemble someone.” The deep, silent voice was neither cold nor indifferent, and the expression on his face was inscrutable.
The unexpected remark left Su Miao slightly stunned.
The next second, she could feel Changji's hand gently brushing across her cheek, soft yet carrying a dangerous undertone.
She couldn't see the man's face, but the aura emanating from him made her heart tremble.
Especially now that she's in this position, it feels like Shen Changji could really push her down at any moment...
"You'll get nowhere if you mess with me. Unless something unexpected happens, but I'm the kind of person who won't allow anything unexpected to happen."
His long, silent hand slowly moved down Su Miao's cheek...
The alternation between hot and cold made her scalp tingle slightly.
Su Miao raised an eyebrow, knowing that Shen Changji was warning her again.
Don't have any bad thoughts, because he has your every move under control. It's best to keep your scheming to yourself and behave yourself, or you won't be able to afford the consequences.
This man isn't without desire; rather, he's very restrained.
The night was both dangerous and alluring to him.
Su Miao gently stroked his hand and said softly, "Brother, I'm being a good girl."
He remained silent for a long time, then carried her back to the bed.
"Please apply the medicine for me, okay, brother?"
Su Miao took out a porcelain bottle from her bosom and waved it in front of Shen Changji.
After drinking, her mind was hazy, but she knew that Shen Changji was suspicious.
If I'm not mistaken, that whole thing was caused by his paranoia; otherwise, he wouldn't have let her go out in the cold wind.
Because she drinks strong liquor...
She wasn't afraid of Shen Changji's suspicions, because the moment she decided to entangle herself with him, she was already prepared.
The more suspicious he is, the more it will pique his curiosity about himself.
The more curious you are, the more unexpected things you'll encounter...
Su Miao turned her back to Chen Changji and obediently pulled open her clothes to reveal the area behind her shoulders.
Shen Changji did not help her, but instead summoned Tao'er for her.
When Tao'er came over, she couldn't help but ask, "Why does it feel like the young master is angry..."
"He'll be angry? He thinks I have ulterior motives!" Su Miao said without hesitation.
"Miss……"
"I know what I'm doing."
Most importantly, she hadn't expected the party to be so intense, and the feeling of Shen Changji was all too familiar; for a fleeting moment...
However, the long silence tonight is indeed somewhat strange.
It wasn't until she returned to the Duke's mansion the next day that Su Miao gradually understood why Shen Changji's behavior the previous night had been so strange.
She saw a brocade box on the table, and inside the box were hairpins.
It was Liu Muxuan who asked Shen Changji to give it to her.
Although she wasn't there, Liu Muxuan still thought about her as always.
She gave a hairpin as a token of affection, and she also wavered between Shen Changji and Liu Muxuan. How could Shen Changji not be eccentric?
My possessiveness is acting up again.
"The eldest young master is really interesting. I thought we would come back together this morning, but who knew he would leave the restaurant first," Tao'er said while packing her things.
"Did the old lady say anything?"
"No, yesterday the eldest young master used the excuse that you felt unwell on the way and found you a place to rest as a cover. In addition, he left first this morning, so it is hard for anyone to suspect you and him."
After all, in everyone's opinion, Shen Changji and Liu Jiaojiao are engaged, and Liu Jiaojiao's background is not bad either, much better than her, a cousin. Any man would know how to choose.
"However, the scouts reported that Liu Jiaojiao has been taking medication recently and is paying extra attention to her diet," Tao'er added.
Upon hearing this, Su Miao calculated the days and realized that Liu Jiaojiao's birthday was approaching.
If I'm not mistaken, she plans to use that day to get closer to Shen Changji, right?
She wanted Liu Jiaojiao to see the man she had long admired together with her...
