Chapter 1294: Beast and Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing

Xi Siyan’s lips curled up, eyes narrowed, his tone lifting slightly, full of teasing, and Zhou Chengchen’s face flushed completely red in an instant.

The next second, strength tightened around her waist, a swift reversal, and the kabedon she’d just given was entirely flipped around by Xi Siyan.

Xi Siyan was much taller than she was, his head lowered, eyes blazing as they locked onto her, his handsome face coming down, their breaths tangling in that tiny space.

Very quickly, his lips pressed down, but it was only a brief instant before Xi Siyan immediately pulled away, his forehead resting against Zhou Chengchen’s: "I don’t know that person."

"..."

"I only like you."

"..."

With where their relationship was now, Zhou Chengchen of course wouldn’t actually get jealous over some random pretty neighbor who suddenly popped up. She’d just been joking, but Xi Siyan rushed to swear loyalty like that.

Zhou Chengchen laughed, poked Xi Siyan’s chest with her finger, and pouted: "Didn’t she come to borrow soy sauce? How could you not know her?"

"She’s ugly."

Zhou Chengchen: "..."

What does whether she’s ugly or not have to do with whether you know her?

Besides, she’s not ugly at all, okay?

Just now Zhou Chengchen had seen clearly—maybe that girl wasn’t jaw-dropping gorgeous, but she was definitely a pretty girl. How did she turn into "ugly" the moment it got to Xi Siyan?

"How is she ugly? She’s pretty cute."

"Really? I didn’t look."

".........!!!"

Zhou Chengchen broke into a sweat. Since when did this guy’s sweet talk get so damn smooth?

He didn’t give her any time to think. Xi Siyan’s kiss fell down again.

Entwined and lingering, when Zhou Chengchen woke up again, it was already early the next morning.

Xi Siyan was already up. Zhou Chengchen grabbed her phone and glanced at the time—almost eleven o’clock. She was so scared she jumped straight up, and the moment her legs took her weight, they went weak; she almost collapsed back down.

Only then did Zhou Chengchen feel just how sore her waist was, how weak her legs were.

Scenes from last night replayed in her mind one after another. Zhou Chengchen’s face turned crimson, and in her heart she furiously cursed a certain someone from head to toe.

Thinking back to the beginning, when she first met Xi Siyan, he’d been so damn cold and aloof. Later in that full suit he’d looked so ascetic, too.

And now?

All Zhou Chengchen wanted was to curse without any image: Tch!

Cold and aloof, my ass. Ascetic, my foot.

This bastard is a beast once the clothes come off, and with clothes on he’s just a beast in gentleman’s clothing!

She dawdled on the bed for a while, cursing and laughing at the same time as she walked into the bathroom to wash up.

Going downstairs, she found breakfast on the table—sandwiches and milk. Zhou Chengchen quickly finished eating, then finally sent a message to Xi Siyan.

The next second, his call came through.

"You’re up?"

"Mm."

"You can really sleep, huh?"

Hearing the obvious smile in Xi Siyan’s voice on the phone, Zhou Chengchen ground her teeth again: "And whose fault is that?"

"My fault."

"Hmph!"

"I’ll pick you up after work and take you somewhere."

"Oh."

Zhou Chengchen didn’t ask much. She heard someone over there calling for Xi Siyan, and the two of them quickly hung up.

Around six-thirty in the afternoon, Xi Siyan called again. Zhou Chengchen was already packed up, and the moment she got the call she ran downstairs.

"Where are we going?"

"You’ll know when we get there."

At this time of day, traffic in B City was more than just a little jammed. Xi Siyan first took Zhou Chengchen to slowly have dinner nearby. It wasn’t until after eight that they left the restaurant and drove toward their destination.

When the car slowly drove into a residential complex, Zhou Chengchen immediately understood what Xi Siyan had brought her here for.
