Novel Full 544 Buttery Flirting
‘Guiying’ stomped out of Zhan Yahui’s home with a fiery spirit and vowed in her heart to destroy her.
I will never forgive you, Zhan Yahui!
‘She’ was so engrossed in her rage that she crashed into someone. ‘She’ gasped and almost fell when a man grabbed her arm and pulled her steady.
“Are you okay?”
‘Guiying’ didn’t need to know to whom ye voice belonged to. Even with her eyes closed, ‘she’ could recognize Zixin’s pleasing and calming voice which was at the moment filled with worry.
“Thanks…” ‘she’ said, surprised, “What are you doing here? Oh…” ‘she’ sneered, “Are you here looking for answers too? Did you come here to question Zhan Yahui? Then don’t waste your breath. That cunning woman won’t bother opening her mouth!”
“I didn’t come here to meet her.”
“Then?”
He pursed his lips, feeling aggrieved. “I rushed here to get you. How could you come here all alone?”
‘Guiying’ blinked twice. “Alone? Is there a problem?”
He looked further disappointed. “You…have no sense of danger.”
“…”
It sounded more like a complaint.
“Now that we know that Zhan Yahui was behind everything, how could you go in alone? What if she tried to harm you?”
‘She’ snorted. “How can a coward person like her who worked in the shadows all this time hurt me?”
“And exactly people like her are more dangerous because they are more cautious. The more cautious they are, the more they are willing to do anything to protect themselves.”
‘Guiying’ felt she wouldn’t be able to win this argument. “Alright. I agree it’s my fault.”
Zixin grew dissatisfied, and ‘she’ cocked her brow up. “Are you pouting?”
“You don’t seem to take your own safety seriously.”
“Is that why you came running to rescue me?”

“What would you have done if I really was in danger?”
“Kill her.”
“…”
‘Guiying’ wanted to discard it as a joke but Zixin’s deadpan expression made her believe not to take him lightly.
“And go to jail?”
“As long as you are safe, nothing else matters to me.”
“No, rotting in jail should matter to you,” ‘she’ dryly said. “You want to spend your whole life in a dark and dirty jail cell?”
Zixin thought about it and felt that life was unappealing.
“Indeed, it would be difficult to live. I wouldn’t be able to meet you. That’s unacceptable,” he gravely said.
Her mouth twitched.
That is his concern?
Zixin then beamed as if he got a great idea. “I will kill Zhan Yahui and then strike a deal with my cousin Yijun. He is a cop. He will set me free.”
“…”
This man is blatantly confessing to using connections to escape his punishment!
“Should I applaud you for your audacity?” ‘She’ replied, speechless. “You rich capitalists! It must feel good to have so much money and connections, right?” ‘She’ snorted.
Zixin tilted his head. “You want the money and connections too? It is already yours.”
Huh?
With a smile as radiant as the golden sun, he said, “I love you. Everything that is mine already became yours the moment I fell for you.”
‘Guiying’ choked by his attack that came out of nowhere. “Y-You…”
Since ‘she’ couldn’t think of anything what to say at this point, ‘she’ promptly withdrew and let – pushed Guiying into the forefront.
Guiying, who suddenly felt more conscious, stiffened before him. “Th-that…I…y-you…huh?”
She felt her brain short-circuit and imaginary steam escaped from the top of her head.
Zixin stared at her. “It’s you.”
Why am I suddenly here!?
She furiously questioned her alter ego, who announced complete silence.
Zixin blinked and slowly put his palm on her forehead. “Do you have a fever? Your face is red.”
She froze like a statue. She now remembered that after his confession and kiss that day, she hadn’t properly given him an answer yet.
Ah, ah, ah!! What should I do? I didn’t talk about t-that at all!
Zixin frowned. “Let’s leave from here. Zhan Yahui’s house must be giving off some negative aura. You look so pale.”
“…”
I-It’s because my heart is pounding so fast because you said that!
‘I love you. Everything that is mine already became yours the moment I fell for you.’
That flirting was as smooth as butter.
He held her hand, making her eyes pop out of her sockets.
Why am I feeling so nervous!?
Zixin gently guided her towards his car and made her sit inside. He came from the other side and sat beside her.
She then realized she was in his car. “N-No, I am okay! You don’t have to take the trouble of dropping me to my house…”
He blinked. “It’s never trouble for you. Besides, I am not taking you to your house.”
“T-Then?”
“Mine.”
—
Guiying dumbly stood before Chen mansion and stared at the lavish villa as if she was dreaming.
…Why am I here?
Her brain which was short-circuited before now completely stopped functioning at this point.
“Shall we go?” Zixin tilted his head and asked.
She gave him a bewildered look.
Why did he take me to his home!?
“W-wait I…I will be meeting your family?”
“Yes. Or I can take you to my room if you don’t want to.”
Guiying almost stumbled. Her face turned bright red.
His ro-ro-ro-ro-room!?
She wondered what happened in between when she was confessed to a few days ago and now was being taken to his room already?
Wait is it p-possible that I said yes to his confession but don’t remember it!?
But how will I not remember!? It’s so important!
Zixin, on the other side, was on completely different track. He didn’t mean anything personal when he brought her here.
After learning Zhan Yahui’s truth, he knew that Guiying would be in a lot of pain. She had betrayed her, after all.
In such sensitive time, he figured it was a good idea to cheer her up by letting her meet his family.
His parents and the twins would liven up the atmosphere, and she wouldn’t have to live gloomily in her apartment all alone with nobody to take care of her.
Zixin nodded to himself.
Guiying will be at ease here.
Guiying on the other side.
Can I run away from here!?
